StrategyGetBuffer(), SyncOneBuffer(), ... StrategyGetBuffer call only from BufferAlloc . SyncOneBuffer not problem too because: PinBuffer_Locked(bufHdr); LWLockAcquire(bufHdr->content_lock, LW_SHARED); And please read comment before LockBufHdr(bufHdr) in SyncOneBuffer.
We checked all functions with refcount and usage_count.
