I've applied the v2 patch on the master branch. There some hunks, but the patch got applied. So, I ran make
installcheck-worldand everything looks fine to me with this patch. Though, I do have a few suggestions in general:
(1) I see two functions being used (a) CheckPromoteSignal and (b) IsPromoteSignaled in the code. Should these be
combinedinto a single function and perhaps check for "promote_signaled" and the "PROMOTE_SIGNAL_FILE". Not sure if
doingthis will break "sigusr1_handler" in postmaster.c though.
(2) CheckPromoteSignal is checking for "PROMOTE_SIGNAL_FILE" file. So, perhaps, rather than calling stat on
"PROMOTE_SIGNAL_FILE"in if statements, I would suggest to use CheckPromoteSignal function instead as it does nothing
butstat on "PROMOTE_SIGNAL_FILE" (after applying your patch).
The new status of this patch is: Waiting on Author
