Tom Lane cfcfbd39b1 Avoid emitting a bogus WAL record when recycling an all-zero btree page.
Commit fafa374f2 caused _bt_getbuf() to possibly emit a WAL record for
a page that it was about to recycle.  However, it failed to distinguish
all-zero pages from dead pages, which is important because only the
latter have valid btpo.xact values, or indeed any special space at all.
Recycling an all-zero page with XLogStandbyInfoActive() enabled therefore
led to an Assert failure, or to emission of a WAL record containing a
bogus cutoff XID, which might lead to unnecessary query cancellations
on hot standby servers.

Per reports from Antonin Houska and 自己.  Amit Kapila was first to
propose this fix, and Robert Haas, myself, and Kyotaro Horiguchi
reviewed it at various times.

This is an old bug, so back-patch to all supported branches.

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.
