Subject: pgsql: Refactor how user-defined LWLock tranches are stored in shmem
Date: Thu, 26 Mar 2026 22:03:58 +0000
Message-ID: <E1w5so1-001bOD-12@gemulon.postgresql.org> (raw)
Refactor how user-defined LWLock tranches are stored in shmem
Merge the LWLockTranches and NamedLWLockTrancheRequest data structures
in shared memory into one array of user-defined tranches. The
NamedLWLockTrancheRequest list is now only used in postmaster, to hold
the requests until shared memory is initialized.
Introduce a C struct, LWLockTranches, to hold all the different fields
kept in shared memory. This gives an easier overview of what are all
the things kept in shared memory. Previously, we had separate pointers
for LWLockTrancheNames, LWLockCounter and the (shared memory copy of)
NamedLWLockTrancheRequestArray.
