4 : * PostgreSQL subtransaction-log manager
5 : *
6 : * The pg_subtrans manager is a pg_xact-like manager that stores the parent
7 : * transaction Id for each transaction. It is a fundamental part of the
8 : * nested transactions implementation. A main transaction has a parent
9 : * of InvalidTransactionId, and each subtransaction has its immediate parent.
10 : * The tree can easily be walked from child to parent, but not in the
11 : * opposite direction.
12 : *
13 : * This code is based on xact.c, but the robustness requirements
14 : * are completely different from pg_xact, because we only need to remember
15 : * pg_subtrans information for currently-open transactions. Thus, there is
16 : * no need to preserve data over a crash and restart.
17 : *
18 : * There are no XLOG interactions since we do not care about preserving
19 : * data across crashes. During database startup, we simply force the
20 : * currently-active page of SUBTRANS to zeroes.
