I was able to reproduce the problem on master.

I'm a bit concerned that this approach could cause walwriter to attempt WAL writes more aggressively in some cases, adding overhead during normal processing. If the goal is only to prevent shutdown from getting stuck, instead, would it be sufficient for ShutdownXLOG() to call XLogSetAsyncXactLSN() just before WalSndWaitStopping()? Regards, -- Fujii Masao
