I reconsider the way to not use pg_stop_backup().
Process of online base backup on standby server:
1. pg_start_backup('x');
2. copy the data directory
3. copy *pg_control*
Behavior while restore:
* read "Minimum recovery ending location" of the copied pg_control.
* use the value with the same purposes as the end-of-backup location.
-> When the value is equal to 0/0, this behavior do not do.
This situation is to acquire backup from master server.
