commit    288b4288c3db3af24404cf6d4c1d9d5a9c9c1922
Author:   Tom Lane <tgl@sss.pgh.pa.us>
Date:     Thu Jul 27 16:07:48 2023 +0000
First released in: 11.21, 12.16, 13.12, 14.9, 15.4

    Raise fixed token-length limit in hba.c.
    
    Historically, hba.c limited tokens in the authentication configuration
    files (pg_hba.conf and pg_ident.conf) to less than 256 bytes.  We have
    seen a few reports of this limit causing problems; notably, for
    moderately-complex LDAP configurations.  Increase the limit to 10240
    bytes as a low-risk stop-gap solution.
    
    In v13 and earlier, this also requires raising MAX_LINE, the limit
    on overall line length.  I'm hesitant to make this code consume
    too much stack space, so I only raised that to 20480 bytes.
