Commit 67c20979ce made end-of-recovery processing emit a process signal
barrier and wait for all processes to refresh their cached logical WAL
logging state. This can hold up promotion indefinitely if a backend
cannot process the barrier, for example while blocked sending data to
a client that has stopped reading.
At wal_level=logical, logical WAL logging is enabled regardless of the
cached state, so no cache synchronization is needed. Skip emitting and
waiting for the barrier in this case.
When logical decoding will be disabled after recovery, stale caches
can only cause extra logical information to be written to WAL, which is
safe. Still emit the barrier so processes update their caches
asynchronously, but no longer wait for it to complete.
These changes allow promotion to finish without waiting for unresponsive
backends to process this barrier in either case. Retain the wait in
other cases, even if the shared state has not changed, to prevent
processes with stale caches from omitting required logical information
after recovery.
