Tom Lane bf2e5eedf0 In a VPATH build, resultmap must be one of the symlinked files, else
pg_regress doesn't see it and you don't get any port-specific
comparisons.

Tom Lane 6d6b3e911c Add variants of digest() and hmac() that accept text inputs.
Marko Kreen says:
This is so obvious that I would like to make it 'official'.

Seems like the theology around bytea<>text casting kept me from
seeing the simple :)

Tom Lane 5b9a058384 Tweak LWLock algorithms so that an awakened waiter for a lock is not
granted the lock when awakened; the signal now only means that the lock
is potentially available.  The waiting process must retry its attempt
to get the lock when it gets to run.  This allows the lock releasing
process to re-acquire the lock later in its timeslice.  Since LWLocks
are usually held for short periods, it is possible for a process to
acquire and release the same lock many times in a timeslice.  The old
spinlock-based implementation of these locks allowed for that; but the
original coding of LWLock would force a process swap for each acquisition
if there was any contention.  Although this approach reopens the door to
process starvation (a waiter might repeatedly fail to get the lock),
the odds of that being a big problem seem low, and the performance cost
of the previous approach is considerable.

Tom Lane a510bf4326 If we fail to fork a new backend process, (try to) report the failure
to the client before closing the connection.  Before 7.2 this was done
correctly, but new code would simply close the connection with no report
to the client.

That's correct. I did not fix the docs for quite some time.
