pg_basebackup's child process did not pay any attention to the pipe from its parent while waiting for input from the source server. If no server data was arriving, it would only wake up and check the pipe every standby_message_timeout or so. This creates a problem since the parent process might determine and send the desired stop position only after the server has reached end-of-WAL and stopped sending data. In the src/test/recovery regression tests, the timing is repeatably such that it takes nearly 10 seconds for the child process to realize that it should shut down. It's not clear how often that would happen in real-world cases, but it sure seems like a bug --- and if the user turns off standby_message_timeout or sets it very large, the delay could be a lot worse. To fix, expand the StreamCtl API to allow the pipe input FD to be passed down to the low-level wait routine, and watch both sockets when sleeping. (Note: AFAICS this issue doesn't affect the Windows port, since it doesn't rely on a pipe to transfer the stop position to the child thread.)

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. 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/.
