From 171d21f50c3ee3f17911daa3d91eb75363669a11 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Michael Paquier Date: Thu, 1 Feb 2024 17:13:11 +0900 Subject: [PATCH] Fix stats_fetch_consistency with stats for fixed-numbered objects This impacts the statistics retrieved in transactions for the following views when updating the value of stats_fetch_consistency, leading to behaviors contrary to what is documented since 605994651b6a as an update of this parameter should discard all statistics snapshot data: - pg_stat_archiver - pg_stat_bgwriter - pg_stat_checkpointer - pg_stat_io - pg_stat_slru - pg_stat_wal For example, updating stats_fetch_consistency from "snapshot" to "cache" in a transaction did not re-fetch any fresh data, using data cached from the time when "snapshot" was in use.
