log_newpage is used by many indexams, in addition to heap, but for
historical reasons it's always been part of the heapam rmgr. Starting with
9.3, we have another WAL record type for logging an image of a page,
XLOG_FPI. Simplify things by moving log_newpage and log_newpage_buffer to
xlog.c, and switch to using the XLOG_FPI record type.

Bump the WAL version number because the code to replay the old HEAP_NEWPAGE
records is removed.

When autovacuum is nominally off, we will still launch autovac workers
to vacuum tables that are at risk of XID wraparound.  But after we'd done
that, an autovac worker would proceed to autovacuum every table in the
targeted database, if they meet the usual thresholds for autovacuuming.
This is at best pretty unexpected; at worst it delays response to the
wraparound threat.  Fix it so that if autovacuum is nominally off, we
*only* do forced vacuums and not any other work.

Per gripe from Andrey Zhidenkov.  This has been like this all along,
so back-patch to all supported branches.

InitProcess() relies on IsBackgroundWorker to decide whether the PGPROC
for a new backend should be taken from ProcGlobal's freeProcs or from
bgworkerFreeProcs.  In EXEC_BACKEND builds, InitProcess() is called
sooner than in non-EXEC_BACKEND builds, and IsBackgroundWorker wasn't
getting initialized soon enough.

- Fix some grammar.
- Group "Obtaining Information About an Error" under "Trapping Errors",

Commit 0ac5ad51 removed an optimization in multixact.c that skipped
fetching members of MultiXactId that were older than our
OldestVisibleMXactId value.  The reason this was removed is that it is
possible for multixacts that contain updates to be older than that
value.  However, if the caller is certain that the multi does not
contain an update (because the infomask bits say so), it can pass this
info down to GetMultiXactIdMembers, enabling it to use the old
optimization.

Pointed out by Andres Freund in 20131121200517.GM7240@alap2.anarazel.de

Testing for abortedness of a multixact member that's being frozen is
unnecessary: we only need to know whether the transaction is still in
progress or committed to determine whether it must be kept or not.  This
let us simplify the code a bit and avoid a useless TransactionIdDidAbort
test.

Suggested by Andres Freund awhile back.

Pointed out by Tom Lane. Backpatch to 9.4, the code was structured
differently in earlier branches and didn't have this mistake.

There were several oversights in recovery code where COMMIT/ABORT PREPARED
records were ignored:

* pg_last_xact_replay_timestamp() (wasn't updated for 2PC commits)
* recovery_min_apply_delay (2PC commits were applied immediately)
* recovery_target_xid (recovery would not stop if the XID used 2PC)

The first of those was reported by Sergiy Zuban in bug #11032, analyzed by
Tom Lane and Andres Freund. The bug was always there, but was masked before
commit d19bd29f, because COMMIT PREPARED
always created an extra regular transaction that was WAL-logged.

Backpatch to all supported versions (older versions didn't have all the
features and therefore didn't have all of the above bugs).

Previously the duplicated paragraphs were used next to each other
in the document to demonstrate that the changes in the stream
were not consumed by pg_logical_slot_peek_changes function.
But some users misunderstood that the duplication of the same
paragraph was just typo. So this commit rewords the sentence in
the latter paragraph for less confusing.

The documentation of ALTER TABLESPACE ... MOVE was added without any
markup, not even paragraph breaks.  Fix that, and clarify the text in a
few places.

findDependencyLoops() was not bright about cases where there are multiple
dependency paths between the same two dumpable objects.  In most scenarios
this did not hurt us too badly; but since the introduction of section
boundary pseudo-objects in commit a1ef01fe,
it was possible for this code to take unreasonable amounts of time (tens
of seconds on a database with a couple thousand objects), as reported in
bug #11033 from Joe Van Dyk.  Joe's particular problem scenario involved
"pg_dump -a" mode with long chains of foreign key constraints, but I think
that similar problems could arise with other situations as long as there
were enough objects.  To fix, add a flag array that lets us notice when we
arrive at the same object again while searching from a given start object.
This simple change seems to be enough to eliminate the performance problem.

Back-patch to 9.1, like the patch that introduced section boundary objects.

This return code is possible wherever we pass bAlertable = TRUE; it
arises when Windows caused the current thread to run an "I/O completion
routine" or an "asynchronous procedure call".  PostgreSQL does not
provoke either of those Windows facilities, hence this bug remaining
largely unnoticed, but other local code might do so.  Due to a shortage
of complaints, no back-patch for now.

Per report from Shiv Shivaraju Gowda, this bug can cause
PGSemaphoreLock() to PANIC.  The bug can also cause select() to report
timeout expiration too early, which might confuse pgstat_init() and
CheckRADIUSAuth().

This restores the style of keeping configure.in free of AC_DEFUN.  Per
gripe from Tom Lane.

shm_mq_send_bytes didn't invariably initialize *bytes_written before
returning, which would cause shm_mq_send to read from uninitialized
memory and add the value it found there to mqh->mqh_partial_bytes.
This could cause the next attempt to send a message via the queue to
fail an assertion (if the queue was detached) or copy data from a
garbage pointer value into the queue (if non-blocking mode was in use).

Nothing in the checkpointer calls InitXLOGAccess(), so WALInsertLocks
never got initialized there.  Without EXEC_BACKEND, it works anyway
because the correct value is inherited from the postmaster, but
with EXEC_BACKEND we've got a problem.  The problem appears to have
been introduced by commit 68a2e52b.

To fix, move the relevant initialization steps from InitXLOGAccess()
to XLOGShmemInit(), making this more parallel to what we do
elsewhere.

Ephemeral slots - slots that shouldn't survive database restarts -
weren't properly cleaned up after a immediate/crash restart. They were
ignored in the sense that they weren't restored into memory and thus
didn't cause unwanted resource retention; but they prevented a new
slot with the same name from being created.

Now ephemeral slots are fully removed during startup.

Backpatch to 9.4 where replication slots where added.

Spotted by Tom Lane.

The syntax summary previously failed to clarify that the first
argument is also optional.  The textual description did mention it,
but all the way at the bottom.  It fits better with the command
overview, so move it there, and fix the summary also.

The problem is that pg_receivexlog calls select(2) with timeout=0 and
goes into busy loop when --status-interval option is set to 0. This bug
was introduced by the commit,
74cbe966.

Per report from Sawada Masahiko

This fixes the installcheck part.  The check part has additional
problems that will be addressed in a separate commit.

Break the list of available options into an <itemizedlist> instead of
inline sentences.  This is mostly motivated by wanting to ensure that the
cross-references to the FSM and VM docs don't cross page boundaries in PDF
format; but it seems to me to read more easily this way anyway.  I took the
liberty of editorializing a bit further while at it.

Per complaint from Magnus about 9.0.18 docs not building in A4 format.
Patch all active branches so we don't get blind-sided by this particular
issue again in future.

This is consistent with the POSIX verdict that kill() shall not report
ESRCH for a zombie process.  Back-patch to 9.0 (all supported versions).
Test code from commit d7cdf6ee depends
on it, and log messages about kill() reporting "Invalid argument" will
cease to appear for this not-unexpected condition.

Commit d7cdf6ee introduced a usage
thereof.  Back-patch to 9.0, like that commit.

The executor has thrown errors for negative OFFSET values since 8.4 (see
commit bfce56ee), but in a moment of brain
fade I taught the planner that OFFSET with a constant negative value was a
no-op (commit 1a1832eb).  Reinstate the
former behavior by only discarding OFFSET with a value of exactly 0.  In
passing, adjust a planner comment that referenced the ancient behavior.

Back-patch to 9.3 where the mistake was introduced.

get_raw_page tried to validate the supplied block number against
RelationGetNumberOfBlocks(), which of course is only right when
accessing the main fork.  In most cases, the main fork is longer
than the others, so that the check was too weak (allowing a
lower-level error to be reported, but no real harm to be done).
However, very small tables could have an FSM larger than their heap,
in which case the mistake prevented access to some FSM pages.
Per report from Torsten Foertsch.

In passing, make the bad-block-number error into an ereport not elog
(since it's certainly not an internal error); and fix sloppily
maintained comment for RelationGetNumberOfBlocksInFork.

This has been wrong since we invented relation forks, so back-patch
to all supported branches.

This makes the behaviour consistent with the json parser, other
json-generating functions, and the JSON standards.

With OpenLDAP versions 2.4.24 through 2.4.31, inclusive, PostgreSQL
backends can crash at exit.  Raise a warning during "configure" based on
the compile-time OpenLDAP version number, and test the crash scenario in
the dblink test suite.  Back-patch to 9.0 (all supported versions).

Unset environment variables that control message language, so that we
can compare some program output with expected strings.  This is very
similar to what pg_regress does.

The latest update introduced some funny whitespace, but since they are
externally maintained files, we add them to the list of files to ignore.

In commit 631dc390, we started to handle
simple numeric timezone offsets via the zic library instead of the old
CTimeZone/HasCTZSet kluge.  However, we overlooked the fact that the zic
code will reject UTC offsets exceeding a week (which seems a bit arbitrary,
but not because it's too tight ...).  This led to possibly setting
session_timezone to NULL, which results in crashes in most timezone-related
operations as of 9.4, and crashes in a small number of places even before
that.  So check for NULL return from pg_tzset_offset() and report an
appropriate error message.  Per bug #11014 from Duncan Gillis.

Back-patch to all supported branches, like the previous patch.
(Unfortunately, as of today that no longer includes 8.4.)

Per recommendation from Andres.

In commit a61daa14, we fixed pg_upgrade so
that it would install sane relminmxid and datminmxid values, but that does
not cure the problem for installations that were already pg_upgraded to
9.3; they'll initially have "1" in those fields.  This is not a big problem
so long as 1 is "in the past" compared to the current nextMultiXact
counter.  But if an installation were more than halfway to the MXID wrap
point at the time of upgrade, 1 would appear to be "in the future" and
that would effectively disable tracking of oldest MXIDs in those
tables/databases, until such time as the counter wrapped around.

While in itself this isn't worse than the situation pre-9.3, where we did
not manage MXID wraparound risk at all, the consequences of premature
truncation of pg_multixact are worse now; so we ought to make some effort
to cope with this.  We discussed advising users to fix the tracking values
manually, but that seems both very tedious and very error-prone.

Instead, this patch adopts two amelioration rules.  First, a relminmxid
value that is "in the future" is allowed to be overwritten with a
full-table VACUUM's actual freeze cutoff, ignoring the normal rule that
relminmxid should never go backwards.  (This essentially assumes that we
have enough defenses in place that wraparound can never occur anymore,
and thus that a value "in the future" must be corrupt.)  Second, if we see
any "in the future" values then we refrain from truncating pg_clog and
pg_multixact.  This prevents loss of clog data until we have cleaned up
all the broken tracking data.  In the worst case that could result in
considerable clog bloat, but in practice we expect that relfrozenxid-driven
freezing will happen soon enough to fix the problem before clog bloat
becomes intolerable.  (Users could do manual VACUUM FREEZEs if not.)

Note that this mechanism cannot save us if there are already-wrapped or
already-truncated-away MXIDs in the table; it's only capable of dealing
with corrupt tracking values.  But that's the situation we have with the
pg_upgrade bug.

For consistency, apply the same rules to relfrozenxid/datfrozenxid.  There
are not known mechanisms for these to get messed up, but if they were, the
same tactics seem appropriate for fixing them.

This was broken and reverted in a previous commit. The (this time verified)
fix is to simly add postgres_fe.h.
