Heikki Linnakangas 94ae6ba74d Send keepalives from walsender even when busy sending WAL.
If walsender doesn't hear from the client for the time specified by
wal_sender_timeout, it will conclude the connection or client is dead, and
disconnect. When half of wal_sender_timeout has elapsed, it sends a ping
to the client, leaving it the remainig half of wal_sender_timeout to
respond. However, it only checked if half of wal_sender_timeout had elapsed
when it was about to sleep, so if it was busy sending WAL to the client for
long enough, it would not send the ping request in time. Then the client
would not know it needs to send a reply, and the walsender will disconnect
even though the client is still alive. Fix that.

Andres Freund, reviewed by Robert Haas, and some further changes by me.
Backpatch to 9.3. Earlier versions relied on the client to send the
keepalives on its own, and hence didn't have this problem.

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
