   LWLock/WALSummarizer

   Waiting to read or update WAL summarization state.

   Waiting to read or update WAL summarization state.

触发机制

pgstat_report_wait_start 位于 src/backend/storage/lmgr/lwlock.c:739，是经 grep 核验的报告路径。公共身份/资源映射位于 src/backend/postmaster/walsummarizer.c:273。探针覆盖的操作是：等待读取或更新 WAL 汇总状态。LWLockAcquire 无法立即取得显示为 WALSummarizer 的轻量级锁 tranche；后端在内部共享内存资源上休眠时，通用 LWLock 报告器发布该 tranche 名称。

pgstat_report_wait_start at src/backend/storage/lmgr/lwlock.c:739 is the grep-verified reporting path. The public identity/resource is mapped at src/backend/postmaster/walsummarizer.c:273. The instrumented operation is: Waiting to read or update WAL summarization state. LWLockAcquire could not immediately take the lightweight-lock tranche displayed as WALSummarizer. The generic LWLock reporter publishes the tranche name while the backend sleeps on the internal shared-memory resource.

诊断 SQL

直接在 psql 里跑；标注的是语句里用到的视图与列所要求的最低版本。

处置步骤

1. 重复采样并锁定一个热点 tranche。
2. 把它与受保护资源及当前负载阶段关联。
3. 降低具体竞争源；增加并发可能让共享内存热点更糟。

源码证据

图谱在各版本源码树里核对到的位置，新的在前。「触发点」是真正上报等待事件的调用处，「目录定义」只说明这个名字在枚举里存在。
