Until now max_files_per_process=N limited each backend to open N files in total (minus a safety factor), even if there were already more files opened in postmaster and inherited by backends. Change max_files_per_process to control how many additional files each process is allowed to open. The main motivation for this is the patch to add io_method=io_uring, which needs to open one file for each backend. Without this patch, even if RLIMIT_NOFILE is high enough, postmaster will fail in set_max_safe_fds() if started with a high max_connections. The cause of the failure is that, until now, set_max_safe_fds() subtracted the already open files from max_files_per_process.
