I was hoping to see an update to the actual error messages returned in
this patch.. I agree that it's good to add the comments but that
doesn't do anything to help the user out in this case.
Regarding the actual comment, here's the wording that I'd use:
-----------------------
If we are in DoingCommandRead state, we can't use ereport(ERROR)
because we can't long jumps in this state. If we attempt to
longjmps in this state, we not only risk breaking protocol at
our level, but also risk leaving openssl in an inconsistent
state, either violating the ssl protocol or having its internal
state trashed because it was interrupted while in the middle of
changing that state.
Currently, the only option is to promote ERROR to FATAL until
we figure out a way to handle errors more effectively while in
this state.
-----------------------
If you agree with that wording update, can you update the patch?
Thanks,
Stephen
