 * elog.c
 *	  error logging and reporting
 *
 * Some notes about recursion and errors during error processing:
 *
 * We need to be robust about recursive-error scenarios --- for example,
 * if we run out of memory, it's important to be able to report that fact.
 * There are a number of considerations that go into this.
 *
 * First, distinguish between re-entrant use and actual recursion.	It
 * is possible for an error or warning message to be emitted while the
 * parameters for an error message are being computed.	In this case
 * errstart has been called for the outer message, and some field values
 * may have already been saved, but we are not actually recursing.	We handle
 * this by providing a (small) stack of ErrorData records.	The inner message
 * can be computed and sent without disturbing the state of the outer message.
 * (If the inner message is actually an error, this isn't very interesting
 * because control won't come back to the outer message generator ... but
 * if the inner message is only debug or log data, this is critical.)
 *
 * Second, actual recursion will occur if an error is reported by one of
 * the elog.c routines or something they call.	By far the most probable
 * scenario of this sort is "out of memory"; and it's also the nastiest
 * to handle because we'd likely also run out of memory while trying to
 * report this error!  Our escape hatch for this condition is to force any
 * such messages up to ERROR level if they aren't already (so that we will
 * not need to return to the outer elog.c call), and to reset the ErrorContext
 * to empty before trying to process the inner message.  Since ErrorContext
 * is guaranteed to have at least 8K of space in it (see mcxt.c), we should
 * be able to process an "out of memory" message successfully.
