Subject: pgsql: Convert some ParallelBlockTableScanDescData fields to atomics.
Date: Fri, 04 Sep 2026 15:56:43 +0000
Message-ID: <E1x2WHS-00000003TGk-2cuV@gemulon.postgresql.org> (raw)

Convert some ParallelBlockTableScanDescData fields to atomics.

Currently, phs_startblock and phs_numblock are of type BlockNumber
and are protected by a spinlock.  By converting them to atomic
variables, we can remove the spinlock and some retry code.
