Subject: pgsql: Convert PROC_HDR->startupBufferPinWaitBuf to an atomic variable.
Date: Tue, 22 Sep 2026 18:22:28 +0000
Message-ID: <E1x958O-00000000o1A-2dJj@gemulon.postgresql.org> (raw)
Convert PROC_HDR->startupBufferPinWaitBuf to an atomic variable.
Currently, this variable is a Buffer that is accessed via a
volatile pointer. By converting it to an atomic variable, we can
remove the volatile qualifiers. No barriers are needed because the
value is published before the backends that read it are signaled.
