Oh neat, thanks.
<long pause reading the code>
Doesn't that tell you the status relative to the transaction calling txid_status()?
I'm looking for the status as any concurrent open transaction might see it. For example, if any concurrent transaction
mightsee it as "in progress", that's what I'd want returned. Does that make sense?
That's why I was thinking GetOldestXmin() was the right thing to use rather than GetActiveSnapshot()->xmin and also why
Ithought to check TransactionIdPrecedes() first.
I am curious about the lock on ClogTruncationLock... could any of the TransactionIdDidXXX calls lie without that lock?
Ihaven't seen such a thing used in the 9.3 sources. Maybe it's necessary for 10 or maybe I just missed it in 9.3?
Thanks for your time!
