The WAL insertion lock variable insertingAt is currently being read
and written with the help of the LWLock wait list lock to avoid any read
of torn values. This wait list lock can become a point of contention on
a highly concurrent write workloads.
This commit switches insertingAt to a 64b atomic variable that provides
torn-free reads/writes. On platforms without 64b atomic support, the
fallback implementation uses spinlocks to provide the same guarantees
for the values read. LWLockWaitForVar(), through
LWLockConflictsWithVar(), reads the new value to check if it still needs
to wait with a u64 atomic operation. LWLockUpdateVar() updates the
variable before waking up the waiters with an exchange_u64 (full memory
barrier). LWLockReleaseClearVar() now uses also an exchange_u64 to
reset the variable. Before this commit, all these steps relied on
LWLockWaitListLock() and LWLockWaitListUnlock().
This reduces contention on LWLock wait list lock and improves
performance of highly-concurrent write workloads. Here are some
numbers using pg_logical_emit_message() (HEAD at

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: https://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 https://www.postgresql.org/download/. For more information look at our web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
