I apologize for not being active on this thread. However, I have now
returned to the thread and confirmed that the inconsistency is still
present in the latest code. I believe it’s crucial to address this
issue, and I am currently submitting the v5 version of the patch. The
v4 version had addressed the feedback from Bharath, Kyotaro, Andres,
and Robert. The current version has been rebased to incorporate
Vignesh’s suggestions. In response to Michael’s comments, I’ve moved
the new ‘slru_written’ column from the ‘pg_stat_bgwriter’ view to the
‘pg_stat_checkpointer’ in the attached patch.

To summarize our discussions, we’ve reached a consensus to correct the
mismatch between the information on buffers written as displayed in
the ‘pg_stat_checkpointer’ view and the checkpointer log message.
We’ve also agreed to separate the SLRU buffers data from the buffers
written and present the SLRU buffers data in a distinct field.

I have created the new commitfest entry here
https://commitfest.postgresql.org/49/5130/.
Kindly share if any comments.

Thanks for updating the patch!

In pgstat_checkpointer.c, it looks like you missed adding
CHECKPOINTER_COMP(slru_written) in pgstat_checkpointer_snapshot_cb().

+     <row>
+      <entry role="catalog_table_entry"><para role="column_definition">
+        <structfield>slru_written</structfield> <type>bigint</type>
+      </para>
+      <para>
+        Number of SLRU buffers written during checkpoints and restartpoints
+      </para></entry>
+     </row>

This entry should be moved to the pg_stat_checkpointer documentation.

+                                               
CheckpointStats.ckpt_slru_written,
+                                               (double) 
CheckpointStats.ckpt_slru_written * 100 / NBuffers,

I don't think NBuffers represents the maximum number of SLRU buffers.
We might need to calculate this based on specific GUC settings,
like transaction_buffers.
