In pg_multixact/members, relying on modulo-2^32 arithmetic for wraparound handling doesn't work all that well. Because we don't explicitely track wraparound of the allocation counter for members, it is possible that the "live" area exceeds 2^31 entries; trying to remove SLRU segments that are "old" according to the original logic might lead to removal of segments still in use. To fix, have the truncation routine use a tailored SlruScanDirectory callback that keeps track of the live area in actual use; that way, when the live range exceeds 2^31 entries, the oldest segments still live will not get removed untimely. This new SlruScanDir callback needs to take care not to remove segments that are "in the future": if new SLRU segments appear while the truncation is ongoing, make sure we don't remove them. This requires examination of shared memory state to recheck for false positives, but testing suggests that this doesn't cause a problem. The original coding didn't suffer from this pitfall because segments created when truncation is running are never considered to be removable. Per Andres Freund's investigation of bug #8673 reported by Serge Negodyuck. |

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: http://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. Changes between all PostgreSQL releases are recorded in the file HISTORY. 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 http://www.postgresql.org/download/. For more information look at our web site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
