The stats collector disregards inquiry messages that bear a cutoff_time before when it last wrote the relevant stats file. That's fine, but at startup when it reads the "permanent" stats files, it absorbed their timestamps as if they were the times at which the corresponding temporary stats files had been written. In reality, of course, there's no data out there at all. This led to disregarding inquiry messages soon after startup if the postmaster had been shut down and restarted within less than PGSTAT_STAT_INTERVAL; which is a pretty common scenario, both for testing and in the field. Requesting backends would hang for 10 seconds and then report failure to read statistics, unless they got bailed out by some other backend coming along and making a newer request within that interval. I came across this through investigating unexpected delays in the src/test/recovery TAP tests: it manifests there because the autovacuum launcher hangs for 10 seconds when it can't get statistics at startup, thus preventing a second shutdown from occurring promptly. We might want to do some things in the autovac code to make it less prone to getting stuck that way, but this change is a good bug fix regardless. In passing, also fix pgstat_read_statsfiles() to ensure that it re-zeroes its global stats variables if they are corrupted by a short read from the stats file. (Other reads in that function go into temp variables, so that the issue doesn't arise.) This has been broken since we created the separation between permanent and temporary stats files in 8.4, so back-patch to all supported branches.

PostgreSQL Database Management System ===================================== 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: https://www.postgresql.org/download 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. The latest version of this software may be obtained at https://www.postgresql.org/download/. For more information look at our web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
