 *
 * autovacuum.c
 *
 * PostgreSQL Integrated Autovacuum Daemon
 *
 * The autovacuum system is structured in two different kinds of processes: the
 * autovacuum launcher and the autovacuum worker.  The launcher is an
 * always-running process, started by the postmaster when the autovacuum GUC
 * parameter is set.  The launcher schedules autovacuum workers to be started
 * when appropriate.  The workers are the processes which execute the actual
 * vacuuming; they connect to a database as determined in the launcher, and
 * once connected they examine the catalogs to select the tables to vacuum.
 *
 * The autovacuum launcher cannot start the worker processes by itself,
 * because doing so would cause robustness issues (namely, failure to shut
 * them down on exceptional conditions, and also, since the launcher is
 * connected to shared memory and is thus subject to corruption there, it is
 * not as robust as the postmaster).  So it leaves that task to the postmaster.
 *
 * There is an autovacuum shared memory area, where the launcher stores
 * information about the database it wants vacuumed.  When it wants a new
 * worker to start, it sets a flag in shared memory and sends a signal to the
 * postmaster.	Then postmaster knows nothing more than it must start a worker;
 * so it forks a new child, which turns into a worker.	This new process
 * connects to shared memory, and there it can inspect the information that the
 * launcher has set up.
 *
 * If the fork() call fails in the postmaster, it sets a flag in the shared
 * memory area, and sends a signal to the launcher.  The launcher, upon
 * noticing the flag, can try starting the worker again by resending the
 * signal.	Note that the failure can only be transient (fork failure due to
 * high load, memory pressure, too many processes, etc); more permanent
 * problems, like failure to connect to a database, are detected later in the
 * worker and dealt with just by having the worker exit normally.  The launcher
 * will launch a new worker again later, per schedule.
 *
 * When the worker is done vacuuming it sends SIGUSR2 to the launcher.	The
 * launcher then wakes up and is able to launch another worker, if the schedule
 * is so tight that a new worker is needed immediately.  At this time the
 * launcher can also balance the settings for the various remaining workers'
 * cost-based vacuum delay feature.
 *
 * Note that there can be more than one worker in a database concurrently.
 * They will store the table they are currently vacuuming in shared memory, so
 * that other workers avoid being blocked waiting for the vacuum lock for that
 * table.  They will also reload the pgstats data just before vacuuming each
 * table, to avoid vacuuming a table that was just finished being vacuumed by
 * another worker and thus is no longer noted in shared memory.  However,
 * there is a window (caused by pgstat delay) on which a worker may choose a
 * table that was already vacuumed; this is a bug in the current design.

 * relation_needs_vacanalyze

 *
 * relopts is a pointer to the AutoVacOpts options (either for itself in the
 * case of a plain table, or for either itself or its parent table in the case
 * of a TOAST table), NULL if none; tabentry is the pgstats entry, which can be
 * NULL.
 *
 * A table needs to be vacuumed if the number of dead tuples exceeds a
 * threshold.  This threshold is calculated as
 *
 * threshold = vac_base_thresh + vac_scale_factor * reltuples
 *
 * For analyze, the analysis done is that the number of tuples inserted,
 * deleted and updated since the last analyze exceeds a threshold calculated
 * in the same fashion as above.  Note that the collector actually stores
 * the number of tuples (both live and dead) that there were as of the last
 * analyze.  This is asymmetric to the VACUUM case.
 *
 * We also force vacuum if the table's relfrozenxid is more than freeze_max_age
 * transactions back.
 *
 * A table whose autovacuum_enabled option is false is
 * automatically skipped (unless we have to vacuum it due to freeze_max_age).
 * Thus autovacuum can be disabled for specific tables. Also, when the stats
 * collector does not have data about a table, it will be skipped.
 *
 * A table whose vac_base_thresh value is < 0 takes the base value from the
 * autovacuum_vacuum_threshold GUC variable.  Similarly, a vac_scale_factor
 * value < 0 is substituted with the value of
 * autovacuum_vacuum_scale_factor GUC variable.  Ditto for analyze.
