If I only back out the select part:

    http://sources.redhat.com/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/winsup/cygwin/select.cc.diff?cvsroot=uberbaum&r1=1.35&r2=1.36

then PostgreSQL is happy again.

Thanks,
Jason

I can't imagine how that could be.  That is a dummy socket.  It should
have no effect on anything but cygwin.

I could believe that the change to AF_UNIX sockets would have an effect,
though.  I've backed out that patch since it was ill-advised.

Could you try putting back the select change and backing out the net.cc
change?  I would be interested in seeing if that fixes things too.

By "cygwin" do you mean the DLL or any Cygwin process?  I wasn't explicit
but both postmaster and psql are Cygwin processes.

I will do a full cvs update, make clean, and make to verify that the
problem is fixed in the current CVS.  I'll report back tomorrow.

This fixes the problem too which implies that it should be fixed in the
current CVS.

Thanks,
Jason

I meant "internal to cygwin".  The SO_LINGER change only affects a socket
that is used by cygwin.  I think it is possible that reverting that change
might have slowed down select enough that it made things appear to work,
though.

Ok.  I would be interested in seeing if all of the changes that I made
affect PostgresSQL.

Good.  That makes sense.  I should have read the description of SO_LINGER
before I made the change for AF_UNIX sockets.  If I had, I never would have
considered it.

The problem is fixed in the current CVS too.  I just ran a full PostgreSQL
regression test and all tests passed.  Note that I just ran against the
DLL -- I didn't rebuild PostgreSQL against the snapshot.

No problem.  Thanks for the speedy fix -- it is much appreciated.
