Formerly, we sent signals for outgoing NOTIFY messages within ProcessCompletedNotifies, which was also responsible for sending relevant ones of those messages to our connected client. It therefore had to run during the main-loop processing that occurs just before going idle. This arrangement had two big disadvantages: * Now that procedures allow intra-command COMMITs, it would be useful to send NOTIFYs to other sessions immediately at COMMIT (though, for reasons of wire-protocol stability, we still shouldn't forward them to our client until end of command). * Background processes such as replication workers would not send NOTIFYs at all, since they never execute the client communication loop. We've had requests to allow triggers running in replication workers to send NOTIFYs, so that's a problem. To fix these things, move transmission of outgoing NOTIFY signals into AtCommit_Notify, where it will happen during CommitTransaction. Also move the possible call of asyncQueueAdvanceTail there, to ensure we don't bloat the async SLRU if a background worker sends many NOTIFYs with no one listening. We can also drop the call of asyncQueueReadAllNotifications, allowing ProcessCompletedNotifies to go away entirely. That's because commit |
