I see two events defined here in the code of type LWLock dedicated to
oldserxid:
- OldSerXidLock which is a wait event defined as it is part of
LWLockNames.
- oldserxid, which gets defined in SimpleLruInit(), which itself calls
LWLockRegisterTranche() to define a second event of type LWLock.
So the docs look correct to me on this side. What I find weird is the
phrasing to define oldserxid. Instead of that, the current description:
Waiting to I/O on an oldserxid buffer.
I would suggest "waiting *for* I/O"
A small patch is attached.
