#ifndef AUTOVACUUM_H
#define AUTOVACUUM_H
Add a multi-worker capability to autovacuum. This allows multiple worker processes to be running simultaneously. Also, now autovacuum processes do not count towards the max_connections limit; they are counted separately from regular processes, and are limited by the new GUC variable autovacuum_max_workers. The launcher now has intelligence to launch workers on each database every autovacuum_naptime seconds, limited only on the max amount of worker slots available. Also, the global worker I/O utilization is limited by the vacuum cost-based delay feature. Workers are "balanced" so that the total I/O consumption does not exceed the established limit. This part of the patch was contributed by ITAGAKI Takahiro. Per discussion.

Fix recently-understood problems with handling of XID freezing, particularly in PITR scenarios. We now WAL-log the replacement of old XIDs with FrozenTransactionId, so that such replacement is guaranteed to propagate to PITR slave databases. Also, rather than relying on hint-bit updates to be preserved, pg_clog is not truncated until all instances of an XID are known to have been replaced by FrozenTransactionId. Add new GUC variables and pg_autovacuum columns to allow management of the freezing policy, so that users can trade off the size of pg_clog against the amount of freezing work done. Revise the already-existing code that forces autovacuum of tables approaching the wraparound point to make it more bulletproof; also, revise the autovacuum logic so that anti-wraparound vacuuming is done per-table rather than per-database. initdb forced because of changes in pg_class, pg_database, and pg_autovacuum catalogs. Heikki Linnakangas, Simon Riggs, and Tom Lane.

Separate multixact freezing parameters from xid's Previously we were piggybacking on transaction ID parameters to freeze multixacts; but since there isn't necessarily any relationship between rates of Xid and multixact consumption, this turns out not to be a good idea. Therefore, we now have multixact-specific freezing parameters: vacuum_multixact_freeze_min_age: when to remove multis as we come across them in vacuum (default to 5 million, i.e. early in comparison to Xid's default of 50 million) vacuum_multixact_freeze_table_age: when to force whole-table scans instead of scanning only the pages marked as not all visible in visibility map (default to 150 million, same as for Xids). Whichever of both which reaches the 150 million mark earlier will cause a whole-table scan. autovacuum_multixact_freeze_max_age: when for cause emergency, uninterruptible whole-table scans (default to 400 million, double as that for Xids). This means there shouldn't be more frequent emergency vacuuming than previously, unless multixacts are being used very rapidly. Backpatch to 9.3 where multixacts were made to persist enough to require freezing. To avoid an ABI break in 9.3, VacuumStmt has a couple of fields in an unnatural place, and StdRdOptions is split in two so that the newly added fields can go at the end. Patch by me, reviewed by Robert Haas, with additional input from Andres Freund and Tom Lane.

extern int AutovacuumLauncherPid;
Simplify and rename some GUC variables, per various recent discussions: * stats_start_collector goes away; we always start the collector process, unless prevented by a problem with setting up the stats UDP socket. * stats_reset_on_server_start goes away; it seems useless in view of the availability of pg_stat_reset(). * stats_block_level and stats_row_level are merged into a single variable "track_counts", which controls all reports sent to the collector process. * stats_command_string is renamed to track_activities. * log_autovacuum is renamed to log_autovacuum_min_duration to better reflect its meaning. The log_autovacuum change is not a compatibility issue since it didn't exist before 8.3 anyway. The other changes need to be release-noted.

/* Status inquiry functions */
extern bool AutoVacuumingActive(void);
Restructure autovacuum in two processes: a dummy process, which runs continuously, and requests vacuum runs of "autovacuum workers" to postmaster. The workers do the actual vacuum work. This allows for future improvements, like allowing multiple autovacuum jobs running in parallel. For now, the code keeps the original behavior of having a single autovac process at any time by sleeping until the previous worker has finished.

Change the autovacuum launcher to read pg_database directly, rather than via the "flat files" facility. This requires making it enough like a backend to be able to run transactions; it's no longer an "auxiliary process" but more like the autovacuum worker processes. Also, its signal handling has to be brought into line with backends/workers. In particular, since it now has to handle procsignal.c processing, the special autovac-launcher-only signal conditions are moved to SIGUSR2. Alvaro, with some cleanup from Tom

Improve autovacuum launcher's ability to detect a problem in worker startup, by having the postmaster signal it when certain failures occur. This requires the postmaster setting a flag in shared memory, but should be as safe as the pmsignal.c code is. Also make sure the launcher honor's a postgresql.conf change turning it off on SIGHUP.

#ifdef EXEC_BACKEND
Tweak __attribute__-wrapping macros for better pgindent results. This improves on commit bbfd7edae5aa5ad5553d3c7e102f2e450d4380d4 by making two simple changes: * pg_attribute_noreturn now takes parentheses, ie pg_attribute_noreturn(). Likewise pg_attribute_unused(), pg_attribute_packed(). This reduces pgindent's tendency to misformat declarations involving them. * attributes are now always attached to function declarations, not definitions. Previously some places were taking creative shortcuts, which were not merely candidates for bad misformatting by pgindent but often were outright wrong anyway. (It does little good to put a noreturn annotation where callers can't see it.) In any case, if we would like to believe that these macros can be used with non-gcc compilers, we should avoid gratuitous variance in usage patterns. I also went through and manually improved the formatting of a lot of declarations, and got rid of excessively repetitive (and now obsolete anyway) comments informing the reader what pg_attribute_printf is for.
