Tom Lane 8de3e410fa In RelationClearRelation, postpone cache reload if !IsTransactionState().
We may process relcache flush requests during transaction startup or
shutdown.  In general it's not terribly safe to do catalog access at those
times, so the code's habit of trying to immediately revalidate unflushable
relcache entries is risky.  Although there are no field trouble reports
that are positively traceable to this, we have been able to demonstrate
failure of the assertions recently added in RelationIdGetRelation() and
SearchCatCache().  On the other hand, it seems safe to just postpone
revalidation of the cache entry until we're inside a valid transaction.
The one case where this is questionable is where we're exiting a
subtransaction and the outer transaction is holding the relcache entry open
--- but if we made any significant changes to the rel inside such a
subtransaction, we've got problems anyway.  There are mechanisms in place
to prevent that (to wit, locks for cross-session cases and
CheckTableNotInUse() for intra-session cases), so let's trust to those
mechanisms to keep us out of trouble.

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/.
