Thomas Munro d0d9344900 Fix cache invalidation bug in recovery_prefetch. 
XLogPageRead() can retry internally after a pread() system call has
succeeded, in the case of short reads, and page validation failures
while in standby mode (see commit 0668719801).  Due to an oversight in
commit 3f1ce973, these cases could leave stale data in the internal
cache of xlogreader.c without marking it invalid.  The main defense
against stale cached data on failure to read a page was in the error
handling path of the calling function ReadPageInternal(), but that
wasn't quite enough for errors handled internally by XLogPageRead()'s
retry loop if we then exited with XLREAD_WOULDBLOCK.

1.  ReadPageInternal() now marks the cache invalid before calling the
    page_read callback, by setting state->readLen to 0.  It'll be set to
    a non-zero value only after a successful read.  It'll stay valid as
    long as the caller requests data in the cached range.

2.  XLogPageRead() no long performs internal retries while reading
    ahead.  While such retries should work, the general philosophy is
    that we should give up prefetching if anything unusual happens so we
    can handle it when recovery catches up, to reduce the complexity of
    the system.  Let's do that here too.

3.  While here, a new function XLogReaderResetError() improves the
    separation between xlogrecovery.c and xlogreader.c, where the former
    previously clobbered the latter's internal error buffer directly.
    The new function makes this more explicit, and also clears a related
    flag, without which a standby would needlessly retry in the outer
    function.

Thanks to Noah Misch for tracking down the conditions required for a
rare build farm failure in src/bin/pg_ctl/t/003_promote.pl, and
providing a reproducer.

Back-patch to 15.

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/.
