Tom Lane 26b438694c Only allow autovacuum to be auto-canceled by a directly blocked process.
In the original coding of the autovacuum cancel feature, commit
acac68b2bc, an autovacuum process was
considered a target for cancellation if it was found to hard-block any
process examined in the deadlock search.  This patch tightens the test so
that the autovacuum must directly hard-block the current process.  This
should make the behavior more predictable in general, and in particular
it ensures that an autovacuum will not be canceled with less than
deadlock_timeout grace period.  In the old coding, it was possible for an
autovacuum to be canceled almost instantly, given unfortunate timing of two
or more other processes' lock attempts.

This also justifies the logging methodology in the recent commit
d7318d43d891bd63e82dcfc27948113ed7b1db80; without this restriction, that
patch isn't providing enough information to see the connection of the
canceling process to the autovacuum.  Like that one, patch all the way
back.

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:

	http://www.postgresql.org/download

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.  Changes between all PostgreSQL releases are recorded in the
file HISTORY.  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
http://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
