OK, we will not call inet_ntop() at all. I moved the CIDR part of adt/inet_net_ntop.c into adt/inet_cidr_ntop.c, and moved the remaining "net" part to /port/inet_net_ntop.c. I then changed all uses of inet_ntoa to use inet_net_ntop(). While this churn would perhaps not be warranted just to allow for better error messages, I found pg_getaddrinfo_all() being called from libpq::connectDBStart(), which makes it not thread-safe. I am not excited about backpatching it but it is a threading bug. The output is as expected: $ psql -h localhost test psql: could not connect to server: Connection refused Is the server running on host "localhost" (127.0.0.1) and accepting TCP/IP connections on port 5432? $ psql -h 127.0.0.1 test psql: could not connect to server: Connection refused Is the server running on host "127.0.0.1" and accepting TCP/IP connections on port 5432? -- Bruce Momjian <bruce@momjian.us> http://momjian.us EnterpriseDB http://enterprisedb.com + It's impossible for everything to be true. +
