The documentation includes a section describing how to define custom LWLocks in extensions using the shmem hooks. However, it has never mentioned the second, more flexible method based on the following routines: - LWLockNewTrancheId() to allocate a tranche ID. - LWLockRegisterTranche() to associate a name to a tranche ID. - LWLockInitialize() to initialize a LWLock with a tranche ID. autoprewarm.c is the only example of extension in the tree that allocates a LWLock this way. This commit adds some documentation about all that. While on it, a comment is added about the need of AddinShmemInitLock. This is required especially for EXEC_BACKEND builds (aka Windows, normally), as per a remark from Alexander, because backends can execute shmem initialization paths concurrently.

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/.
