4 * Communication functions between the Frontend and the Backend
6 * These routines handle the low-level details of communication between
7 * frontend and backend. They just shove data across the communication
8 * channel, and are ignorant of the semantics of the data --- or would be,
9 * except for major brain damage in the design of the old COPY OUT protocol.
10 * Unfortunately, COPY OUT was designed to commandeer the communication
11 * channel (it just transfers data without wrapping it into messages).
12 * No other messages can be sent while COPY OUT is in progress; and if the
13 * copy is aborted by an ereport(ERROR), we need to close out the copy so that
14 * the frontend gets back into sync. Therefore, these routines have to be
15 * aware of COPY OUT state. (New COPY-OUT is message-based and does *not*
16 * set the DoingCopyOut flag.)
18 * NOTE: generally, it's a bad idea to emit outgoing messages directly with
19 * pq_putbytes(), especially if the message would require multiple calls
20 * to send. Instead, use the routines in pqformat.c to construct the message
21 * in a buffer and then emit it in one call to pq_putmessage. This ensures
22 * that the channel will not be clogged by an incomplete message if execution
23 * is aborted by ereport(ERROR) partway through the message. The only
24 * non-libpq code that should call pq_putbytes directly is old-style COPY OUT.
26 * At one time, libpq was shared between frontend and backend, but now
27 * the backend's "backend/libpq" is quite separate from "interfaces/libpq".
28 * All that remains is similarities of names to trap the unwary...

1081 * If msgtype is not '\0', it is a message type code to place before
1082 * the message body. If msgtype is '\0', then the message has no type
1083 * code (this is only valid in pre-3.0 protocols).
1085 * len is the length of the message body data at *s. In protocol 3.0
1086 * and later, a message length word (equal to len+4 because it counts
1087 * itself too) is inserted by this routine.
1089 * All normal messages are suppressed while old-style COPY OUT is in
1090 * progress. (In practice only a few notice messages might get emitted
1091 * then; dropping them is annoying, but at least they will still appear
1092 * in the postmaster log.)
1094 * We also suppress messages generated while pqcomm.c is busy. This
1095 * avoids any possibility of messages being inserted within other
1096 * messages. The only known trouble case arises if SIGQUIT occurs
1097 * during a pqcomm.c routine --- quickdie() will try to send a warning
1098 * message, and the most reasonable approach seems to be to drop it.
