Do not update shm_mq's mq_bytes_written until we have written
an amount of data greater than 1/4th of the ring size, unless
the caller of shm_mq_send(v) requests a flush at the end of

This runtime-computed GUC shows the number of huge pages required
for the server's main shared memory area, taking advantage of the
work done in 0c39c29 and 0bd305e. This is useful for users to estimate
the amount of huge pages required for a server as it becomes possible to
do an estimation without having to start the server and potentially
allocate a large chunk of shared memory.
The number of huge pages is calculated based on the existing GUC
huge_page_size if set, or by using the system's default by looking at
/proc/meminfo on Linux. There is nothing new here as this commit reuses
the existing calculation methods, and just exposes this information
directly to the user. The routine calculating the huge page size is
refactored to limit the number of files with platform-specific flags.
This new GUC's name was the most popular choice based on the discussion
done. This is only supported on Linux.
I have taken the time to test the change on Linux, Windows and MacOS,
though for the last two ones large pages are not supported. The first
one calculates correctly the number of pages depending on the existing
GUC huge_page_size or the system's default.

We don't allow relations to exceed 2^32-1 blocks, because block
numbers are 32 bits and the last possible block number is reserved
to mean InvalidBlockNumber. There is a check for this in mdextend,
but that's really way too late, because the smgr API requires us to
create a buffer for the block-to-be-added, and we do not want to
have any buffer with blocknum InvalidBlockNumber. (Such a case
can trigger assertions in bufmgr.c, plus I think it might confuse
ReadBuffer's logic for data-past-EOF later on.) So put the check
into ReadBuffer.

We had a complaint that the postmaster fails to start if the invoking
program closes stdin. That happens because count_usable_fds expects
to be able to dup(0), and if it can't, we conclude there are no free
FDs and go belly-up. So far as I can find, though, there is no other
place in the server that touches stdin, and it's not unreasonable to
expect that a daemon wouldn't use that file.
As a simple improvement, let's dup FD 2 (stderr) instead. Unlike stdin,
it *is* reasonable for us to expect that stderr be open; even if we are
configured not to touch it, common libraries such as libc might try to
write error messages there.

Commit 80abbeba2 evidently didn't bother checking this code.
Also, list the generated executable in .gitignore (so it's
been a REALLY long time since anyone tried this).
Noted while trying out RISC-V spinlock patch. Given that
this has been broken for 5 years and nobody noticed, it's
likely not worth back-patching.
As reported by a few OSX buildfarm animals there exist at least one path where
temporary files exist during AtProcExit_Files() processing. As temporary file
cleanup causes pgstat reporting, the assertions added in ee3f8d3d3a caused
failures.
This is not an OSX specific issue, we were just lucky that timing on OSX
reliably triggered the problem. The known way to cause this is a FATAL error
during perform_base_backup() with a MANIFEST used - adding an elog(FATAL)
after InitializeBackupManifest() reliably reproduces the problem in isolation.
The problem is that the temporary file created in InitializeBackupManifest()
is not cleaned up via resource owner cleanup as WalSndResourceCleanup()
currently is only used for non-FATAL errors. That then allows to reach
AtProcExit_Files() with existing temporary files, causing the assertion
failure.
To fix this problem, move temporary file cleanup to a before_shmem_exit() hook
and add assertions ensuring that no temporary files are created before / after
temporary file management has been initialized / shut down. The cleanest way
to do so seems to be to split fd.c initialization into two, one for plain file
access and one for temporary file access.
Right now there's no need to perform further fd.c cleanup during process exit,
so I just renamed AtProcExit_Files() to BeforeShmemExit_Files(). Alternatively
we could perform another pass through the files to check that no temporary
files exist, but the added assertions seem to provide enough protection
against that.
It might turn out that the assertions added in ee3f8d3d3a will cause too much
noise - in that case we'll have to downgrade them to a WARNING, at least
temporarily.
This commit is not necessarily the best approach to address this issue, but it
should resolve the buildfarm failures. We can revise later.

For EXEC_BACKEND InitProcess()/InitAuxiliaryProcess() needs to have been
called well before we call BaseInit(), as SubPostmasterMain() needs LWLocks to
work. Having the order of initialization differ between platforms makes it
unnecessarily hard to understand the system and to add initialization points
for new subsystems without a lot of duplication.
To be able to change the order, BaseInit() cannot trigger
CreateSharedMemoryAndSemaphores() anymore - obviously that needs to have
happened before we can call InitProcess(). It seems cleaner to create shared
memory explicitly in single user/bootstrap mode anyway.
After this change the separation of bufmgr initialization into
InitBufferPoolAccess() / InitBufferPoolBackend() is not meaningful anymore so
the latter is removed.

The point of introducing the hash_mem_multiplier GUC was to let users
reproduce the old behavior of hash aggregation, i.e. that it could use
more than work_mem at need. However, the implementation failed to get
the job done on Win64, where work_mem is clamped to 2GB to protect
various places that calculate memory sizes using "long int". As
written, the same clamp was applied to hash_mem. This resulted in
severe performance regressions for queries requiring a bit more than
2GB for hash aggregation, as they now spill to disk and there's no
way to stop that.
Getting rid of the work_mem restriction seems like a good idea, but
it's a big job and could not conceivably be back-patched. However,
there's only a fairly small number of places that are concerned with
the hash_mem value, and it turns out to be possible to remove the
restriction there without too much code churn or any ABI breaks.
So, let's do that for now to fix the regression, and leave the
larger task for another day.
This patch does introduce a bit more infrastructure that should help
with the larger task, namely pg_bitutils.h support for working with
size_t values.

We have an implementation restriction that PREPARE TRANSACTION can't
handle cases where both session-lifespan and transaction-lifespan locks
are held on the same lockable object. (That's because we'd otherwise
need to acquire a new PROCLOCK entry during post-prepare cleanup, which
is an operation that might fail. The situation can only arise with odd
usages of advisory locks, so removing the restriction is probably not
worth the amount of effort it would take.) AtPrepare_Locks attempted
to enforce this, but its logic was many bricks shy of a load, because
it only detected cases where the session and transaction locks had the
same lockmode. Locks of different modes on the same object would lead
to the rather unhelpful message "PANIC: we seem to have dropped a bit
somewhere".
To fix, build a transient hashtable with one entry per locktag,
not one per locktag + mode, and use that to detect conflicts.

The idea behind this patch is to design out bugs like the one fixed
by commit 9d523119f. Previously, once one did RelationOpenSmgr(rel),
it was considered okay to access rel->rd_smgr directly for some
not-very-clear interval. But since that pointer will be cleared by
relcache flushes, we had bugs arising from overreliance on a previous
RelationOpenSmgr call still being effective.
Now, very little code except that in rel.h and relcache.c should ever
touch the rd_smgr field directly. The normal coding rule is to use
RelationGetSmgr(rel) and not expect the result to be valid for longer
than one smgr function call. There are a couple of places where using
the function every single time seemed like overkill, but they are now
annotated with large warning comments.

Several places were performing a tight loop to determine the first power
of 2 number that's > or >= the required memory. Instead of using a loop
for that, we can use pg_nextpower2_32 or pg_nextpower2_64. When we need a
power of 2 number equal to or greater than a given amount, we just pass
the amount to the nextpower2 function. When we need a power of 2 greater
than the amount, we just pass the amount + 1.
Additionally, in tsearch there were a couple of locations that were
performing a while loop when a simple "if" would have done. In both of
these locations only 1 item is being added, so the loop could only have
ever iterated once. Changing the loop into an if statement makes the code
very slightly more optimal as the condition is checked once rather than
twice.
There are quite a few remaining locations that increase the size of the
buffer in the following form:
while (reqsize >= buflen)
{
buflen *= 2;
buf = repalloc(buf, buflen);
}
These are not touched in this commit. repalloc will error out for sizes
larger than MaxAllocSize. Changing these to use pg_nextpower2_32 would
remove the chance of that error being raised. It's unclear from the code
if the sizes could ever become that large, so err on the side of caution.

Snapshot caching, introduced in 623a9ba79b, did not increment
xactCompletionCount during subtransaction abort. That could lead to an older
snapshot being reused. That is, at least as far as I can see, not a
correctness issue (for MVCC snapshots there's no difference between "in
progress" and "aborted"). The only difference between the old and new
snapshots would be a newer ->xmax.
While HeapTupleSatisfiesMVCC makes the same visibility determination, reusing
the old snapshot leads HeapTupleSatisfiesMVCC to not set
HEAP_XMIN_INVALID. Which subsequently causes the kill_prior_tuple optimization
to not kick in (via HeapTupleIsSurelyDead() returning false). The performance
effects of doing the same index-lookups over and over again is how the issue
was discovered...
Fix the issue by incrementing xactCompletionCount in
XidCacheRemoveRunningXids. It already acquires ProcArrayLock exclusively,
making that an easy proposition.
Add a test to ensure that kill_prior_tuple prevents index growth when it
involves aborted subtransaction of the current transaction.
