Hi,
Can you provide more details on the use-case?

The callback is called on the first invocation of GetNamedDSMSegment for
a particular segment name. Subsequent calls just attach an existing segment.
> But if the lock name is a parameter to the function calling GetNamedDSMSegment, and
> not fixed, I do not see a clean way to pass it through to the callback
Keep in mind that the tranche name shows up in wait events, so you
will end up with different wait event names.
Also,
commit 38b602b capped the number of lwlock tranches to 256, so you
may hit this limit if you are creating many lwlocks.
#define MAX_NAMED_TRANCHES 256
