From 5a8cacfe5cb15d97d7f6aad022bde908b3ae8890 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Fujii Masao Date: Wed, 16 Sep 2026 16:54:56 +0900 Subject: doc: Fix primary status update WAL position description Commit 5f3a49abf7f changed the primary status update message to report the end of the last inserted WAL record instead of the WAL write position. However, the protocol documentation still described the WAL position field as the latest WAL write position, which no longer matches the message sent by walsender. Update the description of the WAL position field to indicate the end of the last inserted WAL record, matching the implementation.
