It looks odd to report the sync_state of walsender in BACKUP
state as ASYNC.
+SyncRepCleanupAtProcExit(int code, Datum arg)
+{
+ if (WaitingForSyncRep && !SHMQueueIsDetached(&(MyProc->syncrep_links)))
+ {
+ LWLockAcquire(SyncRepLock, LW_EXCLUSIVE);
+ SHMQueueDelete(&(MyProc->syncrep_links));
+ LWLockRelease(SyncRepLock);
+ }
+
+ if (MyProc != NULL)
+ DisownLatch(&MyProc->waitLatch);
Can MyProc really be NULL here? If yes, "MyProc != NULL" should be
checked before seeing MyProc->syncrep_links.
Even though postmaster dies, the waiting backend keeps waiting until
the timeout expires. Instead, the backends should periodically check
whether postmaster is alive, and then they should exit immediately
if it's not alive, as well as other process does? If the timeout is
disabled, such backends would get stuck infinitely.
Though I commented about the issue related to shutdown, that was
pointless. So change of ProcessInterrupts is not required unless we
find the need again. Sorry for the noise..
