Robert Haas a1c1af2a1f Introduce group locking to prevent parallel processes from deadlocking. 
For locking purposes, we now regard heavyweight locks as mutually
non-conflicting between cooperating parallel processes.  There are some
possible pitfalls to this approach that are not to be taken lightly,
but it works OK for now and can be changed later if we find a better
approach.  Without this, it's very easy for parallel queries to
silently self-deadlock if the user backend holds strong relation locks.

Robert Haas, with help from Amit Kapila.  Thanks to Noah Misch and
Andres Freund for extensive discussion of possible issues with this
approach.

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/.
