Minor corrections in lmgr/README.

Correct an obsolete statement that no backend touches another backend's
PROCLOCK lists.  This was probably wrong even when written (the deadlock
checker looks at everybody's lists), and it's certainly quite wrong now
that fast-path locking can require creation of lock and proclock objects
on behalf of another backend.  Also improve some statements in the hot
standby explanation, and do one or two other trivial bits of wordsmithing/
reformatting.
Minor correction of READ COMMITTED isolation level docs.

Per report from AK
Fix stale-pointer problem in fast-path locking logic.

When acquiring a lock in fast-path mode, we must reset the locallock
object's lock and proclock fields to NULL.  They are not necessarily that
way to start with, because the locallock could be left over from a failed
lock acquisition attempt earlier in the transaction.  Failure to do this
led to all sorts of interesting misbehaviors when LockRelease tried to
clean up no-longer-related lock and proclock objects in shared memory.
Per report from Dan Wood.

In passing, modify LockRelease to elog not just Assert if it doesn't find
lock and proclock objects for a formerly fast-path lock, matching the code
in FastPathGetRelationLockEntry and LockRefindAndRelease.  This isn't a
bug but it will help in diagnosing any future bugs in this area.

Also, modify FastPathTransferRelationLocks and FastPathGetRelationLockEntry
to break out of their loops over the fastpath array once they've found the
sole matching entry.  This was inconsistently done in some search loops
and not others.

Improve assorted related comments, too.

Back-patch to 9.2 where the fast-path mechanism was introduced.

Cope with heap_fetch failure while locking an update chain

The reason for the fetch failure is that the tuple was removed because
it was dead; so the failure is innocuous and can be ignored.  Moreover,
there's no need for further work and we can return success to the caller
immediately.  EvalPlanQualFetch is doing something very similar to this
already.

Don't try to set InvalidXid as page pruning hint

If a transaction updates/deletes a tuple just before aborting, and a
concurrent transaction tries to prune the page concurrently, the pruner
may see HeapTupleSatisfiesVacuum return HEAPTUPLE_DELETE_IN_PROGRESS,
but a later call to HeapTupleGetUpdateXid() return InvalidXid.  This
would cause an assertion failure in development builds, but would be
otherwise Mostly Harmless.

Fix by checking whether the updater Xid is valid before trying to apply
it as page prune point.

Compare Xmin to previous Xmax when locking an update chain

Not doing so causes us to traverse an update chain that has been broken
by concurrent page pruning.  All other code that traverses update chains
uses this check as one of the cases in which to stop iterating, so
replicate it here too.  Failure to do so leads to erroneous CLOG,
subtrans or multixact lookups.

Per discussion following the bug report by J Smith in

as diagnosed by Andres Freund.
Use a more granular approach to follow update chains

Instead of simply checking the KEYS_UPDATED bit, we need to check
whether each lock held on the future version of the tuple conflicts with
the lock we're trying to acquire.

Fix latent(?) race condition in LockReleaseAll.

We have for a long time checked the head pointer of each of the backend's
proclock lists and skipped acquiring the corresponding locktable partition
lock if the head pointer was NULL.  This was safe enough in the days when
proclock lists were changed only by the owning backend, but it is pretty
questionable now that the fast-path patch added cases where backends add
entries to other backends' proclock lists.  However, we don't really wish
to revert to locking each partition lock every time, because in simple
transactions that would add a lot of useless lock/unlock cycles on
already-heavily-contended LWLocks.  Fortunately, the only way that another
backend could be modifying our proclock list at this point would be if it
was promoting a formerly fast-path lock of ours; and any such lock must be
one that we'd decided not to delete in the previous loop over the locallock
table.  So it's okay if we miss seeing it in this loop; we'd just decide
not to delete it again.  However, once we've detected a non-empty list,
we'd better re-fetch the list head pointer after acquiring the partition
lock.  This guards against possibly fetching a corrupt-but-non-null pointer
if pointer fetch/store isn't atomic.  It's not clear if any practical
architectures are like that, but we've never assumed that before and don't
wish to start here.  In any case, the situation certainly deserves a code
comment.

While at it, refactor the partition traversal loop to use a for() construct
instead of a while() loop with goto's.

Back-patch, just in case the risk is real and not hypothetical.
Fix gin_desc routine to match the WAL format.

In the GIN incomplete-splits patch, I used BlockIdDatas to store the block
number of left and right children, when inserting a downlink after a split
to an internal page posting list page. But gin_desc thought they were stored
as BlockNumbers.
Another gin_desc fix.

The number of items inserted was incorrectly printed as if it was a boolean.
Refine our definition of what constitutes a system relation.

Although user-defined relations can't be directly created in
pg_catalog, it's possible for them to end up there, because you can
create them in some other schema and then use ALTER TABLE .. SET SCHEMA
to move them there.  Previously, such relations couldn't afterwards
be manipulated, because IsSystemRelation()/IsSystemClass() rejected
all attempts to modify objects in the pg_catalog schema, regardless
of their origin.  With this patch, they now reject only those
objects in pg_catalog which were created at initdb-time, allowing
most operations on user-created tables in pg_catalog to proceed
normally.

This patch also adds new functions IsCatalogRelation() and
IsCatalogClass(), which is similar to IsSystemRelation() and
IsSystemClass() but with a slightly narrower definition: only TOAST
tables of system catalogs are included, rather than *all* TOAST tables.
This is currently used only for making decisions about when
invalidation messages need to be sent, but upcoming logical decoding
patches will find other uses for this information.

Andres Freund, with some modifications by me.
