Previously pgstat_initialize() was called in InitPostgres() and AuxiliaryProcessMain(). As it turns out there was at least one case where we reported stats before pgstat_initialize() was called, see AutoVacWorkerMain()'s intentionally early call to pgstat_report_autovac(). This turns out to not be a problem with the current pgstat implementation as pgstat_initialize() only registers a shutdown callback. But in the shared memory based stats implementation we are working towards pgstat_initialize() has to do more work. After b406478b87e BaseInit() is a central place where initialization shared by normal backends and auxiliary backends can be put. Obviously BaseInit() is called before InitPostgres() registers ShutdownPostgres. Previously ShutdownPostgres was the first before_shmem_exit callback, now that's commonly pgstats. That should be fine. Previously pgstat_initialize() was not called in bootstrap mode, but there does not appear to be a need for that. It's now done unconditionally. To detect future issues like this, assertions are added to a few places verifying that the pgstat subsystem is initialized and not yet shut down.

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/.
