In addition to the
all-foo-recurse: all-bar-recurse
dependencies that constraint the order of the rule execution, we need
install-foo-recurse: install-bar-recurse
dependencies in case one runs make install without a make all first,
as some people apparently do.
We really need an automated check for this ... and did VALIDATE really
need to become a keyword at all, rather than picking some other syntax
using existing keywords?
race condition where SummarizeOldestCommittedSxact() is called even though
another backend already cleared out all finished sxact entries. That's OK,
RegisterSerializableTransactionInt() can just retry getting a news xact
slot from the available-list when that happens.

contains newly-inserted tuples that according to our OldestXmin are not
yet visible to everyone. The value returned by GetOldestXmin() is conservative,
and it can move backwards on repeated calls, so if we see that contradiction
between the PD_ALL_VISIBLE flag and status of tuples on the page, we have to
assume it's because an earlier vacuum calculated a higher OldestXmin value,
and all the tuples really are visible to everyone.
We have received several reports of this bug, with the "PD_ALL_VISIBLE flag
was incorrectly set in relation ..." warning appearing in logs. We were
finally able to hunt it down with David Gould's help to run extra diagnostics
in an environment where this happened frequently.
Also reword the warning, per Robert Haas' suggestion, to not imply that the
PD_ALL_VISIBLE flag is necessarily at fault, as it might also be a symptom
of corruption on a tuple header.
Backpatch to 8.4, where the PD_ALL_VISIBLE flag was introduced.
than doing it aggressively whenever the tail-XID pointer is advanced, because
this way we don't need to do it while holding SerializableXactHashLock.
This also fixes bug #5915 spotted by YAMAMOTO Takashi, and removes an
obsolete comment spotted by Kevin Grittner.
This improves reporting, as the error string now includes the actual
Python exception. As a side effect, this no longer sets the errcode to
ERRCODE_DATA_EXCEPTION, which might be considered a feature, as it's
not documented and not clear why iterator errors should be treated
differently.

periodically rescan the archive for new timelines, while waiting for new WAL
segments to arrive. This allows you to set up a standby server that follows
the TLI change if another standby server is promoted to master. Before this,
you had to restart the standby server to make it notice the new timeline.
This patch only scans the archive for TLI changes, it won't follow a TLI
change in streaming replication. That is much needed too, but it would be a
much bigger patch than I dare to sneak in this late in the release cycle.
There was discussion on improving the sanity checking of the WAL segments so
that the system would notice more reliably if the new timeline isn't an
ancestor of the current one, but that is not included in this patch.

Seen with an older gcc version. I'm not sure these represent any real
risk factor, but still a bit scary. Anyway we have lots of other
volatile-marked variables in this code, so a couple more won't hurt.
If a standby is broadcasting reply messages and we have named
one or more standbys in synchronous_standby_names then allow
users who set synchronous_replication to wait for commit, which
then provides strict data integrity guarantees. Design avoids
sending and receiving transaction state information so minimises
bookkeeping overheads. We synchronize with the highest priority
standby that is connected and ready to synchronize. Other standbys
can be defined to takeover in case of standby failure.
This version has very strict behaviour; more relaxed options
may be added at a later date.

Since this field is after a variable-length field, it can't simply be
accessed via the C struct for pg_index. Fortunately, the relcache already
did the dirty work of pulling the information out to where it can be
accessed easily, so this is a one-line fix.

The original scheme for this was to symlink plpython.$DLSUFFIX to
plpython2.$DLSUFFIX, but that doesn't work on Windows, and only
accidentally failed to fail because of the way that CREATE LANGUAGE created
or didn't create new C functions. My changes of yesterday exposed the
weakness of that approach. To fix, get rid of the symlink and make
pg_pltemplate show what's really going on.
In createlang this is a one-line change. In droplang there's a whole
lot of cruft that can be discarded since the extension mechanism now
manages removal of the language's support functions.
Also, add deprecation notices to these two programs' reference pages,
since per discussion we may toss them overboard altogether in a release
or two.
