4 * This program acts as a clearing house for requests to the
5 * POSTGRES system. Frontend programs send a startup message
6 * to the Postmaster and the postmaster uses the info in the
7 * message to setup a backend process.
9 * The postmaster also manages system-wide operations such as
10 * startup and shutdown. The postmaster itself doesn't do those
11 * operations, mind you --- it just forks off a subprocess to do them
12 * at the right times. It also takes care of resetting the system
13 * if a backend crashes.
15 * The postmaster process creates the shared memory and semaphore
16 * pools during startup, but as a rule does not touch them itself.
17 * In particular, it is not a member of the PGPROC array of backends
18 * and so it cannot participate in lock-manager operations. Keeping
19 * the postmaster away from shared memory operations makes it simpler
20 * and more reliable. The postmaster is almost always able to recover
21 * from crashes of individual backends by resetting shared memory;
22 * if it did much with shared memory then it would be prone to crashing
23 * along with the backends.
25 * When a request message is received, we now fork() immediately.
26 * The child process performs authentication of the request, and
27 * then becomes a backend if successful. This allows the auth code
28 * to be written in a simple single-threaded style (as opposed to the
29 * crufty "poor man's multitasking" code that used to be needed).
30 * More importantly, it ensures that blockages in non-multithreaded
31 * libraries like SSL or PAM cannot cause denial of service to other

45 * The Postmaster sets up shared memory data structures
49 * The Postmaster shares memory with the backends but should avoid
50 * touching shared memory, so as not to become stuck if a crashing
51 * backend screws up locks or shared memory. Likewise, the Postmaster
52 * should never block on messages from frontend clients.
55 * The Postmaster cleans up after backends if they have an emergency
56 * exit and/or core dump.
59 * Use write_stderr() only for reporting "interactive" errors
60 * (essentially, bogus arguments on the command line). Once the
61 * postmaster is launched, use ereport(). In particular, don't use
62 * write_stderr() for anything that occurs after pmdaemonize.
