Okay, so let's retain the original approach then. I have made a few
cosmetic modifications in the first two patches which include updating
docs, comments, slightly modify the commit message, and change the
code to match the nearby code. One change which you might have a
different opinion is below:
+ case WAIT_EVENT_LOGICAL_CHANGES_READ:
+ event_name = "ReorderLogicalChangesRead";
+ break;
+ case WAIT_EVENT_LOGICAL_CHANGES_WRITE:
+ event_name = "ReorderLogicalChangesWrite";
+ break;
+ case WAIT_EVENT_LOGICAL_SUBXACT_READ:
+ event_name = "ReorderLogicalSubxactRead";
+ break;
+ case WAIT_EVENT_LOGICAL_SUBXACT_WRITE:
+ event_name = "ReorderLogicalSubxactWrite";
+ break;
Why do we want to name these events starting with name as Reorder*? I
think these are used in subscriber-side, so no need to use the word
Reorder, so I have removed it from the attached patch. I am planning
to push the first patch (v53-0001-Extend-the-BufFile-interface) in
this series tomorrow unless you have any comments on the same.
