This reverts commits 24c35ec and 57169ad. PreRestoreCommand() and
PostRestoreCommand() need to be put closer to the system() call calling
a restore_command, as they enable in_restore_command for the startup
process which would in turn trigger an immediate proc_exit() in the
SIGTERM handler. Perhaps we could get rid of this behavior entirely,
but 24c35ec has made the window where the flag is enabled much larger
than it was, and any Postgres-like actions (palloc, etc.) taken by code
paths while the flag is enabled could lead to more severe issues in the
shutdown processing.
Note that curculio has showed that there are much more problems in this
area, unrelated to this change, actually, hence the issues related to
that had better be addressed first. Keeping the code of HEAD in line
with the stable branches should make that a bit easier.
Per discussion with Andres Freund and Nathan Bossart.

The code specific to the execution of archive_cleanup_command,
recovery_end_command and restore_command is moved to a new file named
shell_restore.c. The code is split into three functions:
- shell_restore(), that attempts the execution of a shell-based
restore_command.
- shell_archive_cleanup(), for archive_cleanup_command.
- shell_recovery_end(), for recovery_end_command.
This introduces no functional changes, with failure patterns and logs
generated in consequence being the same as before (one case actually
generates one less DEBUG2 message "could not restore" when a restore
command succeeds but the follow-up stat() to check the size fails, but
that only matters with a elevel high enough).
This is preparatory work for allowing recovery modules, a facility
similar to archive modules, with callbacks shaped similarly to the
functions introduced here.

This change simplifies some of the logic related to the generation and
creation of the backup_label and backup history files, which has become
unnecessarily complicated since the removal of the exclusive backup mode
in commit 39969e2. The code was previously generating the contents of
these files as a string (start phase for the backup_label and stop phase
for the backup history file), one problem being that the contents of the
backup_label string were scanned to grab some of its internal contents
at the stop phase.
This commit changes the logic so as we store the data required to build
these files in an intermediate structure named BackupState. The
backup_label file and backup history file strings are generated when
they are ready to be sent back to the client. Both files are now
generated with the same code path. While on it, this commit renames
some variables for clarity.
Two new files named xlogbackup.{c,h} are introduced in this commit, to
remove from xlog.c some of the logic around base backups. Note that
more could be moved to this new set of files.

Introduce a new GUC recovery_prefetch. When enabled, look ahead in the
WAL and try to initiate asynchronous reading of referenced data blocks
that are not yet cached in our buffer pool. For now, this is done with
posix_fadvise(), which has several caveats. Since not all OSes have
that system call, "try" is provided so that it can be enabled where
available. Better mechanisms for asynchronous I/O are possible in later
work.
Set to "try" for now for test coverage. Default setting to be finalized
before release.
The GUC wal_decode_buffer_size limits the distance we can look ahead in
bytes of decoded data.
The existing GUC maintenance_io_concurrency is used to limit the number
of concurrent I/Os allowed, based on pessimistic heuristics used to
infer that I/Os have begun and completed. We'll also not look more than
maintenance_io_concurrency * 4 block references ahead.

This moves the functions related to performing WAL recovery into the new
xlogrecovery.c source file, leaving xlog.c responsible for maintaining
the WAL buffers, coordinating the startup and switch from recovery to
normal operations, and other miscellaneous stuff that have always been in
xlog.c.

This set of commits has some bugs with known fixes, but at this late
stage in the release cycle it seems best to revert and resubmit next
time, along with some new automated test coverage for this whole area.
Commits reverted:
dc88460c: Doc: Review for "Optionally prefetch referenced data in recovery."
1d257577: Optionally prefetch referenced data in recovery.
f003d9f8: Add circular WAL decoding buffer.
323cbe7c: Remove read_page callback from XLogReader.
Remove the new GUC group WAL_RECOVERY recently added by a55a9847, as the

When maintaining or merging patches, one of the most common sources
for conflicts are the list of objects in makefiles. Especially when
the split across lines has been changed on both sides, which is
somewhat common due to attempting to stay below 80 columns, those
conflicts are unnecessarily laborious to resolve.
By splitting, and alphabetically sorting, OBJS style lines into one
object per line, conflicts should be less frequent, and easier to
resolve when they still occur.

This interface is designed to give an access to WAL for extensions which
could implement new access method, for example. Previously it was
impossible because restoring from custom WAL would need to access system
catalog to find a redo custom function. This patch suggests generic way
to describe changes on page with standart layout.

This does four basic things. First, it provides convenience routines
to coordinate the startup and shutdown of parallel workers. Second,
it synchronizes various pieces of state (e.g. GUCs, combo CID
mappings, transaction snapshot) from the parallel group leader to the
worker processes. Third, it prohibits various operations that would
result in unsafe changes to that state while parallelism is active.
Finally, it propagates events that would result in an ErrorResponse,
NoticeResponse, or NotifyResponse message being sent to the client
from the parallel workers back to the master, from which they can then
be sent on to the client.

Transactions can now set their commit timestamp directly as they commit,
or an external transaction commit timestamp can be fed from an outside
system using the new function TransactionTreeSetCommitTsData(). This
data is crash-safe, and truncated at Xid freeze point, same as pg_clog.
This module is disabled by default because it causes a performance hit,
but can be enabled in postgresql.conf requiring only a server restart.
A new test in src/test/modules is included.
Catalog version bumped due to the new subdirectory within PGDATA and a
couple of new SQL functions.

xlog.c is huge, this makes it a little bit smaller, which is nice. Functions
related to putting together the WAL record are in xloginsert.c, and the
lower level stuff for managing WAL buffers and such are in xlog.c.
Also move the definition of XLogRecord to a separate header file. This
causes churn in the #includes of all the files that write WAL records, and
redo routines, but it avoids pulling in xlog.h into most places.

This new facility can not only be used by xlog.c to carry out crash
recovery, but also by external programs. By supplying a function to
read XLog pages from somewhere, all the WAL reading can be used for
completely different purposes.
For the standard backend use, the behavior should be pretty much the
same as previously. As for non-backend programs, an hypothetical
pg_xlogdump program is now closer to reality, but some more backend
support is still necessary.
This patch was originally submitted by Andres Freund in a different
form, but Heikki Linnakangas opted for and authored another design of
the concept. Andres has advanced the patch since Heikki's initial
version. Review and some (mostly cosmetics) changes by me.
This is just refactoring, to make the functions accessible outside xlog.c.
A followup patch will make use of that, to allow fetching timeline history
files over streaming replication.
to eliminate unnecessary deadlocks. This commit adds SELECT ... FOR SHARE
paralleling SELECT ... FOR UPDATE. The implementation uses a new SLRU
data structure (managed much like pg_subtrans) to represent multiple-
transaction-ID sets. When more than one transaction is holding a shared
lock on a particular row, we create a MultiXactId representing that set
of transactions and store its ID in the row's XMAX. This scheme allows
an effectively unlimited number of row locks, just as we did before,
while not costing any extra overhead except when a shared lock actually
has to be shared. Still TODO: use the regular lock manager to control
the grant order when multiple backends are waiting for a row lock.

least-recently-used strategy from clog.c into slru.c. It doesn't
change any visible behaviour and passes all regression tests plus a
TruncateCLOG test done manually.
Apart from refactoring I made a little change to SlruRecentlyUsed,
formerly ClogRecentlyUsed: It now skips incrementing lru_counts, if
slotno is already the LRU slot, thus saving a few CPU cycles. To make
this work, lru_counts are initialised to 1 in SimpleLruInit.
SimpleLru will be used by pg_subtrans (part of the nested transactions
project), so the main purpose of this patch is to avoid future code
duplication.

buffer manager with 'pg_clog', a specialized access method modeled
on pg_xlog. This simplifies startup (don't need to play games to
open pg_log; among other things, OverrideTransactionSystem goes away),
should improve performance a little, and opens the door to recycling
commit log space by removing no-longer-needed segments of the commit
log. Actual recycling is not there yet, but I felt I should commit
this part separately since it'd still be useful if we chose not to
do transaction ID wraparound.

PG_VERSION serves this purpose for official releases, but we can't bump
the PG_VERSION number every time we make a change to the catalogs during
development. Instead, increase the catalog version number to warn other
developers that you've made an incompatible change. See my mail to
pghackers for more info.
Attached you'll find a (big) patch that fixes make dep and make
depend in all Makefiles where I found it to be appropriate.
It also removes the dependency in Makefile.global for NAMEDATALEN
and OIDNAMELEN by making backend/catalog/genbki.sh and bin/initdb/initdb.sh
a little smarter.
This no longer requires initdb.sh that is turned into initdb with
a sed script when installing Postgres, hence initdb.sh should be
renamed to initdb (after the patch has been applied :-) )
This patch is against the 6.3 sources, as it took a while to
complete.
Please review and apply,

Essentially, this cleans things up so that if PORTNAME isn't defined (I'm
working on getting rid of it for FreeBSD, at least, to see if its possible)
none of the PORTNAME related stuff gets passed around.
