I thought about this again and I feel it might be okay to use it for
our case as after storing it in T_IntList, we primarily fetch it for
comparison with TrasnactionId (uint32), so this shouldn't create any
problem. I feel we can just discuss this in a separate thread and
check the opinion of others, what do you think?
Another comment:
+cleanup_rel_sync_cache(TransactionId xid, bool is_commit)
+{
+ HASH_SEQ_STATUS hash_seq;
+ RelationSyncEntry *entry;
+
+ Assert(RelationSyncCache != NULL);
+
+ hash_seq_init(&hash_seq, RelationSyncCache);
+ while ((entry = hash_seq_search(&hash_seq)) != NULL)
+ {
+ if (is_commit)
+ entry->schema_sent = true;
How is it correct to set 'entry->schema_sent' for all the entries in
RelationSyncCache? Consider a case where due to invalidation in an
unrelated transaction we have set the flag schema_sent for a
particular relation 'r1' as 'false' and that transaction is executed
before the current streamed transaction for which we are performing
commit and called this function. It will set the flag for unrelated
entry in this case 'r1' which doesn't seem correct to me. Or, if this
is correct, it would be a good idea to write some comments about it.
