RelationTruncate() must set DELAY_CHKPT_START.
Previously, it set only DELAY_CHKPT_COMPLETE. That was important,
because it meant that if the XLOG_SMGR_TRUNCATE record preceded a
XLOG_CHECKPOINT_ONLINE record in the WAL, then the truncation would also
happen on disk before the XLOG_CHECKPOINT_ONLINE record was
written.
However, it didn't guarantee that the sync request for the truncation
was processed before the XLOG_CHECKPOINT_ONLINE record was written. By
setting DELAY_CHKPT_START, we guarantee that if an XLOG_SMGR_TRUNCATE
record is written to WAL before the redo pointer of a concurrent
checkpoint, the sync request queued by that operation must be processed
by that checkpoint, rather than being left for the following one.
This is a refinement of commit 412ad7a5563. Back-patch to all supported
releases, like that commit.
