Andres Freund 8cacea7a72 Ensure sufficient alignment for ParallelTableScanDescData in BTShared.
Previously ParallelTableScanDescData was just a member in BTShared,
but after c2fe139c2 that doesn't guarantee sufficient alignment as
specific AMs might (are likely to) need atomic variables in the
struct.

One might think that MAXALIGNing would be sufficient, but as a
comment in shm_toc_allocate() explains, that's not enough. For now,
copy the hack described there.

For parallel sequential scans no such change is needed, as its
allocations go through shm_toc_allocate().

An alternative approach would have been to allocate the parallel scan
descriptor in a separate TOC entry, but there seems little benefit in
doing so.

Per buildfarm member dromedary.

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.
