IIRC I put a variable labeled a "GUC" but forgot to actually make it a GUC. But I'm thinking of maybe removing that variable since I don't see much of a use case for controlling this manually. I *think* ALPN is supported by all the versions of OpenSSL we support.
+1 on removing the variable. Let's make ALPN mandatory for direct SSL connections, like Jacob suggested. And for old-style handshakes, accept and check ALPN if it's given.
I don't see the point of the libpq 'sslalpn' option either. Let's send ALPN always.
Admittedly having the options make testing different of combinations of old and new clients and servers a little easier. But I don't think we should add options for the sake of backwards compatibility tests.

Let's rename the function.
/* push unencrypted buffered data back through SSL setup */ len = pq_buffer_has_data(); if (len > 0) { buf = palloc(len); if (pq_getbytes(buf, len) == EOF) return STATUS_ERROR; /* shouldn't be possible */ port->raw_buf = buf; port->raw_buf_remaining = len; port->raw_buf_consumed = 0; } Assert(pq_buffer_has_data() == 0); if (secure_open_server(port) == -1) { ereport(COMMERROR, (errcode(ERRCODE_PROTOCOL_VIOLATION), errmsg("SSL Protocol Error during direct SSL connection initiation"))); return STATUS_ERROR; } if (port->raw_buf_remaining > 0) { ereport(COMMERROR, (errcode(ERRCODE_PROTOCOL_VIOLATION), errmsg("received unencrypted data after SSL request"), errdetail("This could be either a client-software bug or evidence of an attempted man-in-the-middle attack."))); return STATUS_ERROR; } if (port->raw_buf) pfree(port->raw_buf);
This pattern is repeated in both callers of secure_open_server(). Could we move this into secure_open_server() itself? That would feel pretty natural, be-secure.c already contains the secure_raw_read() function that reads the 'raw_buf' field.
const char * PQsslAttribute(PGconn *conn, const char *attribute_name) { ... if (strcmp(attribute_name, "alpn") == 0) { const unsigned char *data; unsigned int len; static char alpn_str[256]; /* alpn doesn't support longer than 255 bytes */ SSL_get0_alpn_selected(conn->ssl, &data, &len); if (data == NULL || len==0 || len > sizeof(alpn_str)-1) return NULL; memcpy(alpn_str, data, len); alpn_str[len] = 0; return alpn_str; }
Using a static buffer doesn't look right. If you call PQsslAttribute on two different connections from two different threads concurrently, they will write to the same buffer. I see that you copied it from the "key_bits" handlng, but it has the same issue.
