Heikki Linnakangas 49a3360209 Fix ordering of operations in SyncRepWakeQueue to avoid assertion failure.
Commit 14e8803f1 removed the locking in SyncRepWaitForLSN, but that
introduced a race condition, where SyncRepWaitForLSN might see
syncRepState already set to SYNC_REP_WAIT_COMPLETE, but the process was
not yet removed from the queue. That tripped the assertion, that the
process should no longer be in the uqeue. Reorder the operations in
SyncRepWakeQueue to remove the process from the queue first, and update
syncRepState only after that, and add a memory barrier in between to make
sure the operations are made visible to other processes in that order.

Fixes bug #14721 reported by Const Zhang. Analysis and fix by Thomas Munro.
Backpatch down to 9.5, where the locking was removed.

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:

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
