Alvaro Herrera 9915de6c1c Fix race conditions in replication slot operations 
It is relatively easy to get a replication slot to look as still active
while one process is in the process of getting rid of it; when some
other process tries to "acquire" the slot, it would fail with an error
message of "replication slot XYZ is active for PID N".

The error message in itself is fine, except that when the intention is
to drop the slot, it is unhelpful: the useful behavior would be to wait
until the slot is no longer acquired, so that the drop can proceed.  To
implement this, we use a condition variable so that slot acquisition can
be told to wait on that condition variable if the slot is already
acquired, and we make any change in active_pid broadcast a signal on the
condition variable.  Thus, as soon as the slot is released, the drop
will proceed properly.

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:

	https://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
https://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
