43 : * BackgroundWorkerSlots exist in shared memory and can be accessed (via
44 : * the BackgroundWorkerArray) by both the postmaster and by regular backends.
45 : * However, the postmaster cannot take locks, even spinlocks, because this
46 : * might allow it to crash or become wedged if shared memory gets corrupted.
47 : * Such an outcome is intolerable. Therefore, we need a lockless protocol
48 : * for coordinating access to this data.
49 : *
50 : * The 'in_use' flag is used to hand off responsibility for the slot between
51 : * the postmaster and the rest of the system. When 'in_use' is false,
52 : * the postmaster will ignore the slot entirely, except for the 'in_use' flag
53 : * itself, which it may read. In this state, regular backends may modify the
54 : * slot. Once a backend sets 'in_use' to true, the slot becomes the
55 : * responsibility of the postmaster. Regular backends may no longer modify it,
56 : * but the postmaster may examine it. Thus, a backend initializing a slot
57 : * must fully initialize the slot - and insert a write memory barrier - before
58 : * marking it as in use.
59 : *
60 : * As an exception, however, even when the slot is in use, regular backends
61 : * may set the 'terminate' flag for a slot, telling the postmaster not
62 : * to restart it. Once the background worker is no longer running, the slot
63 : * will be released for reuse.
64 : *
65 : * In addition to coordinating with the postmaster, backends modifying this
66 : * data structure must coordinate with each other. Since they can take locks,
67 : * this is straightforward: any backend wishing to manipulate a slot must
68 : * take BackgroundWorkerLock in exclusive mode. Backends wishing to read
69 : * data that might get concurrently modified by other backends should take
70 : * this lock in shared mode. No matter what, backends reading this data
71 : * structure must be able to tolerate concurrent modifications by the
72 : * postmaster.
