Naming the individual lwlocks seems like something that may be useful
for other types of debugging, monitoring, or instrumentation output,
but this commit just implements it for the specific case of
trace_lwlocks.

The "typo" alleged in commit 1e460d4bd was actually a comment that was
correct when written, but I missed updating it in commit b5282aa89.
Use a slightly less specific (and hopefully more future-proof) description
of what is collected. Back-patch to 9.2 where that commit appeared, and
revert the comment to its then-entirely-correct state before that.
The list-wrangling here was done wrong, allowing the same state to get
put into the list twice. The following loop then would clone it twice.
The second clone would wind up with no inarcs, so that there was no
observable misbehavior AFAICT, but a useless state in the finished NFA
isn't an especially good thing.
Mark index tuple as dead if it's pointed by kill_prior_tuple during
ordinary (search) scan and remove it during insert process if there is no
enough space for new tuple to insert. This improves select performance
because index will not return tuple marked as dead and improves insert
performance because it reduces number of page split.

This commit makes postmaster forcibly remove the files signaling
a standby promotion request. Otherwise, the existence of those files
can trigger a promotion too early, whether a user wants that or not.
This removal of files is usually unnecessary because they can exist
only during a few moments during a standby promotion. However
there is a race condition: if pg_ctl promote is executed and creates
the files during a promotion, the files can stay around even after
the server is brought up to new master. Then, if new standby starts
by using the backup taken from that master, the files can exist
at the server startup and should be removed in order to avoid
an unexpected promotion.
Back-patch to 9.1 where promote signal file was introduced.

Even views considered "simple" enough to be automatically updatable may
have mulitple relations involved (eg: in a where clause). We need to
make sure and lock those relations when rewriting the query.
Back-patch to 9.3 where updatable views were added.

Per discussion, nowadays it is possible to have tablespaces that have
wildly different I/O characteristics from others. Setting different
effective_io_concurrency parameters for those has been measured to
improve performance.

If a transaction never reaches the standby, later tests find unexpected
cluster state. A "tail-copy: query result matches" test failure has
been the usual symptom. Among the buildfarm members having run this
test suite, most have exhibited that symptom at least once. Back-patch
to 9.5, where pg_rewind was introduced.

Commit f828654e introduced the 'n' option, but it invoked
gettimeofday() independently of the 'm' option. If both options were
in use (or multiple 'n' options), or if 'n' was in use along with
csvlog, then the reported times could be different for the same log
message.
To fix, initialize a global variable with gettimeofday() once per log
message, and use that for both formats.
Don't bother coordinating the time for the 't' option, which has much
lower resolution.

We were missing a few return checks on OpenSSL calls. Should be pretty
harmless, since we haven't seen any user reports about problems, and
this is not a high-traffic module anyway; still, a bug is a bug, so
backpatch this all the way back to 9.0.

Cleanup process could be called by ordinary insert/update and could take a lot
of time. Add vacuum_delay_point() to make this process interruptable. Under
vacuum this call will also throttle a vacuum process to decrease system load,
called from insert/update it will not throttle, and that reduces a latency.
Backpatch for all supported branches.

Add pages deleted from GIN's pending list during cleanup to free space map
immediately. Clean up process could be initiated by ordinary insert but adding
page to FSM might occur only at vacuum. On some workload like never-vacuumed
insert-only tables it could cause a huge bloat.

Recent commit 0426f349e changed handling of error context reports
in such a way to have a minor effect on the sepgsql regression
output. Adapt the expected output file to suit. Since that commit
was HEAD only, so is this one.
Since 6fcd885 it is possible to immediately reserve WAL when creating a
slot via pg_create_physical_replication_slot(). Extend the replication
protocol to allow that as well.
Although, in contrast to the SQL interface, it is possible to update the
reserved location via the replication interface, it is still useful
being able to reserve upon creation there. Otherwise the logic in
ReplicationSlotReserveWal() has to be repeated in slot employing
clients.

This has been broken since 9.3 (commit 82b1b213ca to be exact),
which suggests that nobody is any longer using a Windows build system that
doesn't provide a symlink emulation. Still, it's wrong on its own terms,
so repair.

Remove the code in plpgsql that suppressed the innermost line of CONTEXT
for messages emitted by RAISE commands. That was never more than a quick
backwards-compatibility hack, and it's pretty silly in cases where the
RAISE is nested in several levels of function. What's more, it violated
our design theory that verbosity of error reports should be controlled
on the client side not the server side.
To alleviate the resulting noise increase, introduce a feature in libpq
and psql whereby the CONTEXT field of messages can be suppressed, either
always or only for non-error messages. Printing CONTEXT for errors only
is now their default behavior.
The actual code changes here are pretty small, but the effects on the
regression test outputs are widespread. I had to edit some of the
alternative expected outputs by hand; hopefully the buildfarm will soon
find anything I fat-fingered.
In passing, fix up (again) the output line counts in psql's various
help displays. Add some commentary about how to verify them.

Formerly, we treated only portals created in the current subtransaction as
having failed during subtransaction abort. However, if the error occurred
while running a portal created in an outer subtransaction (ie, a cursor
declared before the last savepoint), that has to be considered broken too.
To allow reliable detection of which ones those are, add a bookkeeping
field to struct Portal that tracks the innermost subtransaction in which
each portal has actually been executed. (Without this, we'd end up
failing portals containing functions that had called the subtransaction,
thereby breaking plpgsql exception blocks completely.)
In addition, when we fail an outer-subtransaction Portal, transfer its
resources into the subtransaction's resource owner, so that they're
released early in cleanup of the subxact. This fixes a problem reported by
Jim Nasby in which a function executed in an outer-subtransaction cursor
could cause an Assert failure or crash by referencing a relation created
within the inner subtransaction.
The proximate cause of the Assert failure is that AtEOSubXact_RelationCache
assumed it could blow away a relcache entry without first checking that the
entry had zero refcount. That was a bad idea on its own terms, so add such
a check there, and to the similar coding in AtEOXact_RelationCache. This
provides an independent safety measure in case there are still ways to
provoke the situation despite the Portal-level changes.
This has been broken since subtransactions were invented, so back-patch
to all supported branches.

Post-commit review by Andres Freund discovered a couple of concurrency
bugs in the original patch: specifically, if the leader cleared a
follower's XID before it reached PGSemaphoreLock, the semaphore would be
left in the wrong state; and if another process did PGSemaphoreUnlock
for some unrelated reason, we might resume execution before the fact
that our XID was cleared was globally visible.
Also, improve the wording of some comments, rename nextClearXidElem
to firstClearXidElem in PROC_HDR for clarity, and drop some volatile
qualifiers that aren't necessary.

The setting values of some parameters including max_worker_processes
must be equal to or higher than the values on the master. However,
previously max_worker_processes was not listed as such parameter
in the document. So this commit adds it to that list.
Back-patch to 9.4 where max_worker_processes was added.
Most suites already did so via start_test_server(), but the pg_rewind,
pg_ctl and pg_controldata suites ran a postmaster or initdb with fsync
enabled. This halves the pg_rewind suite's runtime on buildfarm member
tern. It makes tern and that machine's other buildfarm members less
vulnerable to noise failures from postmaster startup overrunning the 60s
pg_ctl timeout. Back-patch to 9.5, where pg_rewind was introduced.

Previously, if one background worker registered another background
worker and set bgw_notify_pid while for the second background worker,
it would not receive notifications from the postmaster unless, at the
time the "parent" was registered, BGWORKER_BACKEND_DATABASE_CONNECTION
was set.
To fix, instead instead of including only those background workers that
requested database connections in the postmater's BackendList, include
them all. There doesn't seem to be any reason not do this, and indeed
it removes a significant amount of duplicated code. The other option
is to make PostmasterMarkPIDForWorkerNotify look at BackgroundWorkerList
in addition to BackendList, but that adds more code duplication instead
of getting rid of it.

Some googling turned up multiple sources saying that older versions of icc
do not accept gcc-compatible asm blocks on IA64, though asm does work on
x86[_64]. This is apparently fixed as of icc version 12.0 or so, but that
doesn't help us much; if we have to carry the extra implementation anyway,
we may as well just use it for icc rather than add a compiler version test.
Hence, revert commit 2c713d6ea2 (though I
separated the icc code from the gcc code completely, producing what seems
cleaner code). Document the state of affairs more explicitly, both in
s_lock.h and postgres.c, and make some cosmetic adjustments around the
IA64 code in s_lock.h.
The atomics headers were written under the impression that icc doesn't
handle gcc-style asm blocks, but this is demonstrably false on x86_[64],
because s_lock.h has done it that way for more than a decade. (The jury is
still out on whether this also works on ia64, so I'm leaving ia64-related
code alone for the moment.) Treat gcc and icc the same in these headers.
This is less code and it should improve the results for icc, because we
hadn't gotten around to providing icc-specific implementations for most
of the atomics.
Intel's icc is generally able to swallow asm blocks written for gcc.
We have a few places that don't seem to know that, though. Experiment
with removing the special case for icc in ia64_get_bsp(); if the buildfarm
likes this, I'll try more cleanup. This is a good test case because it
involves a "stop" notation that seems like it might not be very portable.
Remove configure's checks for HAVE_POSIX_SIGNALS, HAVE_SIGPROCMASK, and
HAVE_SIGSETJMP. These APIs are required by the Single Unix Spec v2
(POSIX 1997), which we generally consider to define our minimum required
set of Unix APIs. Moreover, no buildfarm member has reported not having
them since 2012 or before, which means that even if the code is still live
somewhere, it's untested --- and we've made plenty of signal-handling
changes of late. So just take these APIs as given and save the cycles for
configure probes for them.
However, we can't remove as much C code as I'd hoped, because the Windows
port evidently still uses the non-POSIX code paths for signal masking.
Since we're largely emulating these BSD-style APIs for Windows anyway, it
might be a good thing to switch over to POSIX-like notation and thereby
remove a few more #ifdefs. But I'm not in a position to code or test that.
In the meantime, we can at least make things a bit more transparent by
testing for WIN32 explicitly in these places.
