ResourceOwner mechanism already released all reference counts for the
cache entries; therefore, we do not need to scan the catcache or relcache
at transaction end, unless we want to do it as a debugging crosscheck.
Do the crosscheck only in Assert mode. This is the same logic we had
previously installed in AtEOXact_Buffers to avoid overhead with large
numbers of shared buffers. I thought it'd be a good idea to do it here
too, in view of Kari Lavikka's recent report showing a real-world case
where AtEOXact_CatCache is taking a significant fraction of runtime.
exit, instead of trying to take shortcuts. Introduce some additional
shutdown callback routines to eliminate kluges like having ProcKill
be responsible for shutting down the buffer manager. Ensure that the
order of operations during shutdown is predictable and what you would
expect given the module layering.

cycles, and it seems that current Cygwin does not cope gracefully
with deliberately running the system out of FDs. Per Andrew Dunstan.
character, tighten the inner loops of CopyReadLine and CopyReadAttribute,
arrange to parse out all the attributes of a line in just one call instead
of one CopyReadAttribute call per attribute, be smarter about which client
encodings require slow pg_encoding_mblen() loops. Also, clean up the
mishmash of static variables and overly-long parameter lists in favor of
passing around a single CopyState struct containing all the state data.
Original patch by Alon Goldshuv, reworked by Tom Lane.
This was not especially critical before, but it is now that we track
ownership dependencies --- the dependency for the rowtype *must* shift
to the new owner. Spotted by Bernd Helmle.
Also fix a problem introduced by recent change to allow non-superusers
to do ALTER OWNER in some cases: if the table had a toast table, ALTER
OWNER failed *even for superusers*, because the test being applied would
conclude that the new would-be owner had no create rights on pg_toast.
A side-effect of the fix is to disallow changing the ownership of indexes
or toast tables separately from their parent table, which seems a good
idea on the whole.

This was a hard problem in the context of the ARC/2Q design, but it's
trivial in the context of clock sweep ... just advance the sweep counter
before we try to write not after.
of special case for Windows port. Put a PG_TRY around most of createdb()
to ensure that we remove copied subdirectories on failure, even if the
failure happens while creating the pg_database row. (I think this explains
Oliver Siegmar's recent report.) Having done that, there's no need for
the fragile assumption that copydir() mustn't ereport(ERROR), so simplify
its API. Eliminate the old code that used system("cp ...") to copy
subdirectories, in favor of using copydir() on all platforms. This not
only should allow much better error reporting, but allows us to fsync
the created files before trusting that the copy has succeeded.
