Thomas Munro 239b175342 Process pending postmaster work before connections.
Modify the new event loop code from commit 7389aad6 so that it checks
for work requested by signal handlers even if it doesn't see a latch
event yet.

This gives priority to shutdown and reload requests where the latch will
be reported later in the event array, or in a later call to
WaitEventSetWait(), due to scheduling details.  In particular, this
guarantees that a SIGHUP-then-connect sequence (as seen in
authentication tests) causes the postmaster to process the reload before
accepting the connection.  If the WaitEventSetWait() call saw the socket
as ready, and the reload signal was generated before the connection,
then the latest time the signal handler should be able to run is after
poll/epoll_wait/kevent returns but before we check the
pending_pm_reload_request flag.

While here, also shift the handling of child exit below reload requests,
per Tom Lane's observation that that might start new processes, so we
should make sure we pick up new settings first.

This probably explains the one-off failure of build farm animal
malleefowl.

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
https://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
