Hi,

Regarding backup control functions, the func.sgml describes as above.
But non-exclusive pg_start_backup and pg_stop_backup can also be
executed during recovery, and which should be described in the doc.
So I think that the attached patch should be pushed. Thought?

Probably the patch needs to be back-patched to 9.6 where non-exclusive
backup API was added.

Regards,
