Re: [HACKERS] WAL: O_DIRECT and multipage-writer (+ memory leak)

Hello everyone.

I fixed two bugs in the patch that I sent before.
Check and test new one, please.

1. Fix update timing of Write->curridx. (pointed by Tom)
     Change to update it soon after write().

2. Fix buffer alignment routine on 64bit cpu. (pointed by Mark)
     I checked it on Xeon EM64T and it worked properly, but I don't have IA64...


BTW, I found memory leak in BootStrapXLOG(). The buffer allocated by malloc()
is not free()ed. ISSUE_BOOTSTRAP_MEMORYLEAK in this patch points out it.
(But this leak is not serious, because this function is called only once.)
