Fix race condition in pg_ctl reading postmaster.pid.
If postmaster changed postmaster.pid while pg_ctl was reading it, pg_ctl
could overrun the buffer it allocated for the file. Fix by reading the
whole file to memory with one read() call.
initdb contains an identical copy of the readfile() function, but the files
that initdb reads are static, not modified concurrently. Nevertheless, add

Split up process latch initialization for more-fail-soft behavior.
In the previous coding, new backend processes would attempt to create their
self-pipe during the OwnLatch call in InitProcess. However, pipe creation
could fail if the kernel is short of resources; and the system does not
recover gracefully from a FATAL error right there, since we have armed the
dead-man switch for this process and not yet set up the on_shmem_exit
callback that would disarm it. The postmaster then forces an unnecessary
database-wide crash and restart, as reported by Sean Chittenden.
There are various ways we could rearrange the code to fix this, but the
simplest and sanest seems to be to split out creation of the self-pipe into
a new function InitializeLatchSupport, which must be called from a place
where failure is allowed. For most processes that gets called in
InitProcess or InitAuxiliaryProcess, but processes that don't call either
but still use latches need their own calls.

Fix cross-type case in partial row matching for hashed subplans.
When hashing a subplan like "WHERE (a, b) NOT IN (SELECT x, y FROM ...)",
findPartialMatch() attempted to match rows using the hashtable's internal
equality operators, which of course are for x and y's datatypes. What we
need to use are the potentially cross-type operators for a=x, b=y, etc.
Failure to do that leads to wrong answers or even crashes. The scope for
problems is limited to cases where we have different types with compatible
hash functions (else we'd not be using a hashed subplan), but for example
int4 vs int8 can cause the problem.

Remove unnecessary overhead in backend's large-object operations.
Do read/write permissions checks at most once per large object descriptor,

guaranteed to produce the same answer every time. In the write case,
the extra tests could in principle detect revocation of write privileges

The initial cut at it would have been no help to code that is compiled only

Some googling about static assertions turns up quite a bit of prior art
for making it work in compilers that lack _Static_assert. The method

In the same spirit, if we don't have __builtin_types_compatible_p we can at

nothing.

Fix examples of how to use "su" while starting the server.
The syntax "su -c 'command' username" is not accepted by all versions of
su, for example not OpenBSD's. More portable is "su username -c
'command'". So change runtime.sgml to recommend that syntax. Also,
add a -D switch to the OpenBSD example script, for consistency with other
examples. Per Denis Lapshin and Gábor Hidvégi.
