Hi!
I have been working on some servers that haven't been shut down or restarted for many days. As a result, the need arose to use the function 'pg_postmaster_start_time' (which I had completely forgotten existed).
While working with it, I realized that it would be more appropriate for its name to be 'pg_postgres_start_time', to align with the name of the main process displayed by the operating system. The process, which was previously known as "postmaster," has long been referred to as "postgres".
I suggest this change to simplify the terminology and make the function name more intuitive, as "postgres" directly refers to the database server. This seems more suitable to me.
Attached is the patch with the suggest adjustment.
Result:
[postgres(at)192 bin]$ pwd
/pgsql18devel/18devel_bin/bin
[postgres(at)192 bin]$ ./psql -p 5454 -h ::1
psql (18devel)
Type "help" for help.
postgres=# select pg_postgres_start_time();
pg_postgres_start_time
