21 * Reasons for signaling a Postgres child process (a backend or an auxiliary
22 * process, like checkpointer). We can cope with concurrent signals for different
23 * reasons. However, if the same reason is signaled multiple times in quick
24 * succession, the process is likely to observe only one notification of it.
25 * This is okay for the present uses.
27 * Also, because of race conditions, it's important that all the signals be
28 * defined so that no harm is done if a process mistakenly receives one.
