Michael Paquier b81d08d600 Fix handling of synchronous replication for stopping WAL senders
This fixes an oversight from c6c3334 which has introduced a more strict
ordering in the way WAL senders are stopped to prevent current WAL
activity when a shutdown checkpoint is created.  After all backends are
stopped, all WAL senders are requested to stop which makes them stop any
activity, and switching their state as stopping.  Once the checkpointer
knows that all WAL senders are in a stopping state, the shutdown
checkpoint can begin, with all WAL senders activated, waiting for their
clients to flush the shutdown checkpoint record.

If a subset of WAL senders are stopping and in a sync state, other WAL
senders could still be waiting for a WAL position to be synced while
committing a transaction, however the subset of stopping senders would
not release waiters, potentially breaking synchronous replication
guarantees.  This commit makes sure that even WAL senders stopping are
able to release waiters properly.

On 9.4, this can also trigger an assertion failure when setting for
example max_wal_senders to 1 where a WAL sender is not able to find
itself as in synchronous state when the instance stops.

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:

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
