Subject: Fix incorrect initialization of ProcGlobal->startupBufferPinWaitBufId.
X-Git-Tag: REL9_2_BETA1~1337
X-Git-Url: https://granicus.if.org/sourcecode?a=commitdiff_plain;h=2e53bd5517431637e495c7614761e5aae46b4eba;p=postgresql

Fix incorrect initialization of ProcGlobal->startupBufferPinWaitBufId.

It was initialized in the wrong place and to the wrong value.  With bad
luck this could result in incorrect query-cancellation failures in hot
standby sessions, should a HS backend be holding pin on buffer number 1
while trying to acquire a lock.
