5 * The WAL sender process (walsender) is new as of Postgres 9.0. It takes
6 * care of sending XLOG from the primary server to a single recipient.
7 * (Note that there can be more than one walsender process concurrently.)
8 * It is started by the postmaster when the walreceiver of a standby server
9 * connects to the primary server and requests XLOG streaming replication.
10 * It attempts to keep reading XLOG records from the disk and sending them
11 * to the standby server, as long as the connection is alive (i.e., like
12 * any backend, there is a one-to-one relationship between a connection
13 * and a walsender process).
15 * Normal termination is by SIGTERM, which instructs the walsender to
16 * close the connection and exit(0) at next convenient moment. Emergency
17 * termination is by SIGQUIT; like any backend, the walsender will simply
18 * abort and exit on SIGQUIT. A close of the connection and a FATAL error
19 * are treated as not a crash but approximately normal termination;
20 * the walsender will exit quickly without sending any more XLOG records.
22 * If the server is shut down, postmaster sends us SIGUSR2 after all
23 * regular backends have exited and the shutdown checkpoint has been written.
24 * This instruct walsender to send any outstanding WAL, including the
25 * shutdown checkpoint record, and then exit.

927 * transaction. Just nail the windows shut and get out of town. Now that
928 * there's an atexit callback to prevent third-party code from breaking
929 * things by calling exit() directly, we have to reset the callbacks
930 * explicitly to make this work as intended.
935 * Note we do exit(2) not exit(0). This is to force the postmaster into a
936 * system reset cycle if some idiot DBA sends a manual SIGQUIT to a random
937 * backend. This is necessary precisely because we don't clean up our
938 * shared memory state. (The "dead man switch" mechanism in pmsignal.c
939 * should ensure the postmaster sees this as a crash, too, but no harm in
940 * being doubly sure.)
