This allows recovery to notice certain incorrect recovery scenarios.
If a server has recovered to point X on timeline 5, and you restart
recovery, it better be on timeline 5 when it reaches point X again, not on
some timeline with a higher ID. This can happen e.g if you a standby server
is shut down, a new timeline appears in the WAL archive, and the standby
server is restarted. It will try to follow the new timeline, which is wrong
because some WAL on the old timeline was already replayed before shutdown.

discovered during local testing.

This reverts commit e2b3c21b.

During VACUUM if we pause to perform a cycle
of index cleanup we drop the vmbuffer pin,
so we should do the same thing when heap
scan completes. This avoids holding vmbuffer
pin across the main index cleanup in VACUUM,
which could be minutes or hours longer than
necessary for correctness.

Obviously, this returns type "path", but somebody made a copy-and-pasteo

We can't use type uint, so use uint32.

Rename PGXACT->inCommit flag into delayChkpt flag,
and generalise comments to allow use in other situations,
such as the forthcoming potential use in checksum patch.
Replace wait loop to look for VXIDs with delayChkpt set.

It is now easier to see that it's a state machine, making the code easier
to understand overall.

Normally each module is tested in aq database named contrib_regression,
which is dropped and recreated at the beginhning of each pg_regress run.
This mode, enabled by adding USE_MODULE_DB=1 to the make command line,
runs most modules in a database with the module name embedded in it.

This will make testing pg_upgrade on clusters with the contrib modules
a lot easier.

Still to be done: adapt to the MSVC build system.

Allow support only for freezing tuples by explicit
command. Previous coding mistakenly extended
slightly beyond what was agreed as correct on -hackers.
So essentially a partial revoke of earlier work,
leaving just the COPY FREEZE command.

This reverts commit c1113069 in favor of
actually fixing the problem: namely, that we should never have been
modifying the checkpoint record's nextXid at this point to begin with.
The nextXid should match the state as of the checkpoint's logical WAL
position (ie the redo point), not the state as of its physical position.
It's especially bogus to advance it in some wal_levels and not others.
In any case there is no need for the checkpoint record to carry the
same nextXid shown in the XLOG_RUNNING_XACTS record just emitted by
LogStandbySnapshot, as any replay operation will already have adopted
that value as current.

This fixes bug #7710 from Tarvi Pillessaar, and probably also explains bug
#6291 from Daniel Farina, in that if a checkpoint were in progress at the
instant of XID wraparound, the epoch bump would be lost as reported.
(And, of course, these days there's at least a 50-50 chance of a checkpoint
being in progress at any given instant.)

Diagnosed by me and independently by Andres Freund.  Back-patch to all
branches supporting hot standby.

Previously we stored all xids mixed together.
Now we store top-level xids first, followed
by all subxids. Also skip logging any subxids
if the snapshot is suboverflowed, since there
are potentially large numbers of them and they
are not useful in that case anyway. Has value
in the envisaged design for decoding of WAL.
No planned effect on Hot Standby.

Andres Freund, reviewed by me

If wal_level = hot_standby we update the checkpoint nextxid,
though in the case where a wraparound occurred half-way through
a checkpoint we would neglect updating the epoch also. Updating
the nextxid is arguably the wrong thing to do, but changing that
may introduce subtle bugs into hot standby startup, while updating
the value doesn't cause any known bugs yet. Minimal fix now to
HEAD and backbranches, wider fix later in HEAD.

When we do "make install" to create a temp installation, we don't want
that instance of make to try to communicate with any instance of make
that might be calling us.  This is known to cause problems if the
upper make has a -jN flag, and in principle could cause problems even
without that.  Unset the relevant environment variables to prevent such
issues.

Andres Freund

The previous coding worked as long as MODULEDIR wasn't set explicitly,
because we create sharedir/$(datamoduledir) and the default value of
that is "extension".  But if some other value is specified for MODULEDIR
then the installation directory needed for the control file wasn't made.

Cédric Villemain

Normally it is unsafe to allow ALTER TYPE ADD VALUE in a transaction block,
because instances of the value could be added to indexes later in the same
transaction, and then they would still be accessible even if the
transaction rolls back.  However, we can allow this if the enum type itself
was created in the current transaction, because then any such indexes would
have to go away entirely on rollback.

The reason for allowing this is to support pg_upgrade's new usage of
pg_restore --single-transaction: in --binary-upgrade mode, pg_dump emits
enum types as a succession of ALTER TYPE ADD VALUE commands so that it can
preserve the values' OIDs.  The support is a bit limited, so we'll leave
it undocumented.

Andres Freund

    In pg_upgrade, remove pg_restore's --single-transaction option,
    as it throws errors in certain cases.

certain cases.

When a relfilenode is created in this subtransaction or
a committed child transaction and it cannot otherwise
be seen by our own process, mark tuples committed ahead
of transaction commit for all COPY commands in same
transaction. If FREEZE specified on COPY
and pre-conditions met then rows will also be frozen.
Both options designed to avoid revisiting rows after commit,
increasing performance of subsequent commands after
data load and upgrade. pg_restore changes later.
