Heikki Linnakangas 7537f52a00 Utilize the visibility map in autovacuum, too. There was an oversight in
the visibility map patch that because autovacuum always sets
VacuumStmt->freeze_min_age, visibility map was never used for autovacuum,
only for manually launched vacuums. This patch introduces a new scan_all
field to VacuumStmt, indicating explicitly whether the visibility map
should be used, or the whole relation should be scanned, to advance
relfrozenxid. Anti-wraparound vacuums still need to scan all pages.

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:

	http://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.  Changes between all PostgreSQL releases are recorded in the
file HISTORY.  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
http://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
