array_base and array_stride were added so that we could identify the offset of an LWLock within a tranche, but this facility is only very marginally used apart from the main tranche. So, give every lock in the main tranche its own tranche ID and get rid of array_base, array_stride, and all that's attached. For debugging facilities (Trace_lwlocks and LWLOCK_STATS) print the pointer address of the LWLock using %p instead of the offset. This is arguably more useful, and certainly a lot cheaper. Drop the offset-within-tranche from the information reported to dtrace and from one can't-happen message inside lwlock.c. The main user-visible impact of this change is that pg_stat_activity will now report all waits for LWLocks as "LWLock" rather than reporting some as "LWLockTranche" and others as "LWLockNamed". The main motivation for this change is that the need to specify an array_base and an array_stride is awkward for parallel query. There is only a very limited supply of tranche IDs so we can't just keep allocating new ones, and if we try to use the same tranche IDs every time then we run into trouble when multiple parallel contexts are use simultaneously. So if we didn't get rid of this mechanism we'd have to make it even more complicated. By simplifying it in this way, we instead reduce the size of the generated code for lwlock.c by about 5%.

PostgreSQL Database Management System ===================================== This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL database management system. PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types and functions. This distribution also contains C language bindings. PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here: http://www.postgresql.org/download See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install PostgreSQL. That file also lists supported operating systems and hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL system. Copyright and license information can be found in the file COPYRIGHT. A comprehensive documentation set is included in this distribution; it can be read as described in the installation instructions. The latest version of this software may be obtained at http://www.postgresql.org/download/. For more information look at our web site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
