Subject: pgsql: Use a separate spinlock to protect LWLockTranches

Message-ID: <E1w5so1-001bOF-1A@gemulon.postgresql.org> (raw)

Use a separate spinlock to protect LWLockTranches

Previously we reused the shmem allocator's ShmemLock to also protect
lwlock.c's shared memory structures. Introduce a separate spinlock for
lwlock.c for the sake of modularity. Now that lwlock.c has its own
shared memory struct (LWLockTranches), this is easy to do.
