一、PG用户的密码如何通过md5加密，并且是否加了salt？本文将从源码角度跟踪分析。

PG用户通过md5加密时，加了salt，而这个salt是用户名字符串。

二、源码分析

CreateRole：
    shadow_pass = encrypt_password(Password_encryption, stmt->role,password);
    |-- pg_md5_encrypt(password, role, strlen(role),encrypted_password);
    |   |-- memcpy(crypt_buf, passwd, passwd_len);
    |   |   memcpy(crypt_buf + passwd_len, role, strlen(role));
    |   |   strcpy(buf, "md5");
    |-- |-- pg_md5_hash(crypt_buf, passwd_len + salt_len, buf + 3);
    new_record[Anum_pg_authid_rolpassword - 1] =CStringGetTextDatum(shadow_pass);

三、gdb跟踪

1、在函数encrypt_password上打断点，然后客户端执行：create user yzs with password '123456';创建带密码的用户，观察是否默认使用md5。

postgres=# create user yzs with password '123456';

2、堆栈信息

Breakpoint 1, encrypt_password (target_type=PASSWORD_TYPE_MD5, role=0x99c3b3c "yzs", password=0x99c3b4c "123456") at crypt.c:111

3、从pg_authid表中观察该用户经过md5加过密的密码值，可以看出和堆栈信息中看到的一样

postgres=# select *from pg_authid where rolname='yzs';
