Andres Freund dc6c4c9dc2 Add infrastructure for sharing temporary files between backends.
SharedFileSet allows temporary files to be created by one backend and
then exported for read-only access by other backends, with clean-up
managed by reference counting associated with a DSM segment.  This
includes changes to fd.c and buffile.c to support the new kind of
temporary file.

This will be used by an upcoming patch adding support for parallel
hash joins.

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.

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/.
