src/test/ssl broken on HEAD

Hi all,

The following commit has broken the SSL test suite (embarrassing and
lonely moment):
commit 13d856e177e69083f543d6383eeda9e12ce3c55c
Author: Heikki Linnakangas <heikki.linnakangas@iki.fi>
Date: Wed Jul 29 19:17:02 2015 +0300

Make TAP tests work on Windows.
[...]
*Michael Paquier*, reviewed by Noah Misch, some additional tweaking by me.

What actually happens is that the SSL suite needs to use a host IP for
the tests, but listen_addresses has been reshuffled in the commit
above. Only HEAD is impacted, and attached is a patch to fix the
problem. I have refactored as well the code so as 127.0.0.1 is not
hardcoded around anymore, and the IP used for the tests is
centralized. The tests also used a log file, but this does not make
sense anymore as all the output from stderr and stdout is captured in
a log file.
Regards,
--
Michael

For so long as this test suite is not run by 'make check-world' or by
the buildfarm, it's likely to keep getting broken, and we're likely to
keep not noticing. I realize that the decision to exclude this from
'make check-world' was deliberately made for security reasons, but
that doesn't take anything away from the maintenance headache.

Still, that's not a reason not commit this, so done.

Tell me what's needed and I'll look at creating a buildfarm test module
for it.

You run the tests via: make -C src/test/ssl check

But nota bene security caveats:

Add a regression test suite for SSL support.

It's not run by the global "check" or "installcheck" targets, because the
temporary installation it creates accepts TCP connections from any user
the same host, which is insecure.

AFAICS it just requires running "make check" in src/test/ssl. Maybe
this could be part of a generic module that runs "make check" in
specified subdirectories; see
/messages/by-id/20150813181107.GC5232@alvherre.pgsql
for previous discussion about that.

Add a regression test suite for SSL support.

temporary installation it creates accepts TCP connections from any user
the same host, which is insecure.

We could just implement SSL over unix sockets. Obviously the
connection-encryption aspect isn't actually useful, but e.g. client
certs still make sense. Besides, it allows to avoid concerns like the
above...

The buildfarm client may as well ignore that security hazard, because today's
buildfarm client starts likewise-exposed postmasters directly.

Agreed.

See old discussion here:
/messages/by-id/49CA2524.5010809@gmx.net

At the time, we didn't have this test suite, obviously, so the utility
would be have been limited, but now it looks quite interesting.

The only trick, as I remember, was that clients tend to prefer SSL
automatically, which we probably don't want for Unix-domain sockets, so
we'd need to tweak those settings a bit.

The "old patch" referred to in that old thread wasn't actually attached,
so here it is, for amusement.

Wouldn't this need as well a separate configuration value in
pg_hba.conf? Let's say localssl.
