Previously, md.c and checkpointer.c were tightly integrated so that fsync calls could be handed off and processed in the background. Introduce a system of callbacks and file tags, so that other modules can hand off fsync work in the same way. For now only md.c uses the new interface, but other users are being proposed. Since there may be use cases that are not strictly SMGR implementations, use a new function table for sync handlers rather than extending the traditional SMGR one. Instead of using a bitmapset of segment numbers for each RelFileNode in the checkpointer's hash table, make the segment number part of the key. This requires sending explicit "forget" requests for every segment individually when relations are dropped, but suits the file layout schemes of proposed future users better (ie sparse or high segment numbers).

PostgreSQL Database Management System ===================================== This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL database management system. PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types and functions. This distribution also contains C language bindings. PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here: https://www.postgresql.org/download See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install PostgreSQL. That file also lists supported operating systems and hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL system. Copyright and license information can be found in the file COPYRIGHT. A comprehensive documentation set is included in this distribution; it can be read as described in the installation instructions. The latest version of this software may be obtained at https://www.postgresql.org/download/. For more information look at our web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
