From: Simon Riggs Date: Fri, 29 Dec 2017 14:30:33 +0000 (+0000) Subject: Fix race condition when changing synchronous_standby_names X-Git-Tag: REL_11_BETA1~1025 X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=48c9f4926562278a2fd2b85e7486c6d11705f177;p=thirdparty%2Fpostgresql.git Fix race condition when changing synchronous_standby_names A momentary window exists when synchronous_standby_names changes that allows commands issued after the change to continue to act as async until the change becomes visible. Remove the race by using more appropriate test in syncrep.c Author: Asim Rama Praveen and Ashwin Agrawal Reported-by: Xin Zhang, Ashwin Agrawal, and Asim Rama Praveen Reviewed-by: Michael Paquier, Masahiko Sawada --- diff --git a/src/backend/replication/syncrep.c b/src/backend/replication/syncrep.c index 8677235411c..962772ef8f6 100644 --- a/src/backend/replication/syncrep.c +++ b/src/backend/replication/syncrep.c @@ -156,11 +156,9 @@ SyncRepWaitForLSN(XLogRecPtr lsn, bool commit) mode = Min(SyncRepWaitMode, SYNC_REP_WAIT_FLUSH); /* - * Fast exit if user has not requested sync replication, or there are no - * sync replication standby names defined.
