here's v2 of the patch including the regression test update.
I omitted socket counters for walreceivers, i couldn't get them
working under SSL. Since they are using the front end libpq libs i
would have to duplicate alot of the code in the backend to be able to
instrument them under SSL (add openssl BIO custom send/recv like the
backend has), not sure it's worth it.. We can get the data from the
master's pg_stat_replication view anyways. I'm open to suggestions.
So, for now, the counters only track sockets created from an inbound
(client to server) connection.
