Subject: Fix Y2038 issues with MyStartTime.
X-Git-Tag: REL_14_14~53
X-Git-Url: http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=5cea7168dfe622fe2e474bdfae59f966aad53ce3;p=postgresql.git

Fix Y2038 issues with MyStartTime.

Several places treat MyStartTime as a "long", which is only 32 bits
wide on some platforms.  In reality, MyStartTime is a pg_time_t,
i.e., a signed 64-bit integer.  This will lead to interesting bugs
on the aforementioned systems in 2038 when signed 32-bit integers
are no longer sufficient to store Unix time (e.g., "pg_ctl start"
hanging).  To fix, ensure that MyStartTime is handled as a 64-bit
value everywhere.  (Of course, users will need to ensure that
time_t is 64 bits wide on their system, too.)
