This may cause overhead in WAL-writing by walwriter because it's called
every cycles even when walwriter needs to write more WAL next cycle
(don't need to sleep on WaitLatch)? If this is right, pgstat_send_wal()
should be called only when WaitLatch() returns with WL_TIMEOUT?
- <function>XLogFlush</function> request(see <xref linkend="wal-configuration"/>)
+ <function>XLogFlush</function> request(see <xref linkend="wal-configuration"/>),
+ or WAL data written out to disk by WAL receiver.
So regarding walreceiver, only wal_write, wal_write_time, wal_sync, and
wal_sync_time are updated even while the other values are not. Isn't this
confusing to users? If so, what about reporting those walreceiver stats in
pg_stat_wal_receiver?
if (endofwal)
+ {
+ /* Send WAL statistics to the stats collector */
+ pgstat_send_wal();
break;
You added pgstat_send_wal() so that it's called in some cases where
walreceiver exits. But ISTM that there are other walreceiver-exit cases.
For example, in the case where SIGTERM is received. Instead,
pgstat_send_wal() should be called in WalRcvDie() for those all cases?
