Peter Geoghegan 292698f158 amcheck: Skip unlogged relations in Hot Standby.
Have verify_heapam.c treat unlogged relations as if they were simply
empty when in Hot Standby mode.  This brings it in line with
verify_nbtree.c, which has handled unlogged relations in the same way
since bugfix commit 6754fe65a4.  This was an oversight in commit
866e24d47d, which extended contrib/amcheck to check heap relations.

In passing, lower the verbosity used when reporting that a relation has
been skipped like this, from NOTICE to DEBUG1.  This is appropriate
because the skipping behavior is only an implementation detail, needed
to work around the fact that unlogged tables don't have smgr-level
storage for their main fork when in Hot Standby mode.

Affected unlogged relations should be considered "trivially verified",
not skipped over.  They are verified in the same sense that a totally
empty relation can be verified.  This behavior seems least surprising
overall, since unlogged relations on a replica will initially be empty
if and when the replica is promoted and Hot Standby ends.

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.
