I have been putting my HEAD on this patch for a few hours, reviewing
the surroundings, and somewhat missed that this computation is done
while we do not hold the WAL insert locks:
+ checkPoint.redo = ProcLastRecPtr;
Then a few lines down the shared Insert.RedoRecPtr is updated while
holding an exclusive lock.
RedoRecPtr = XLogCtl->Insert.RedoRecPtr = checkPoint.redo;
If we have a bunch of records inserted between the moment when the
REDO record is inserted and the moment when the checkpointer takes the
exclusive WAL lock, aren't we potentially missing a lot of FPW's that
should exist since the redo LSN?
