Subject: Match the buffer usage tracking for leader and worker backends.
X-Git-Tag: REL_12_BETA1~1775
X-Git-Url: http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=ccc84a956b00bdd4c162ca8951dd1ff7890cb51f;p=postgresql.git

Match the buffer usage tracking for leader and worker backends.

In the leader backend, we don't track the buffer usage for ExecutorStart
phase whereas in worker backend we track it for ExecutorStart phase as
well.  This leads to different value for buffer usage stats for the
parallel and non-parallel query.  Change the code so that worker backend
also starts tracking buffer usage after ExecutorStart.
