Subject: pgsql: Add backendType to PGPROC, replacing isRegularBackend
Date: Wed, 04 Feb 2026 11:08:18 +0000
Message-ID: <[email protected]> (raw)
Add backendType to PGPROC, replacing isRegularBackend
We can immediately make use of it in pg_signal_backend(), which
previously fetched the process type from the backend status array with
pgstat_get_backend_type_by_proc_number(). That was correct but felt a
little questionable to me: backend status should be for observability
purposes only, not for permission checks.
