Hello, Pavel!
Please find attached my version of the patch (it applies cleanly on
top of 64d89a9 which is current master).
It is time to change oid. 3331 is used by "bytea_sortsupport", I set
3334 to "pg_size_bytes".
I got a code design of numbers checking from json_lex_number in
src/backend/utils/adt/json.c
For me it seems more structured. I adapted it a little and it allows
to add parsing an exponent (like '10е3 Mb') easily for full support of
numeric (if sometimes it is necessary).
When I added "trimming" for size units (playing with avoiding an extra
buffer), I found there is easy to support "bytes" unit (but "byte" is
still unsupported).
Also this version includes all changes I mentioned in my last review[1]:
1. parse_memory_unit returns value instead of using a pointer (return
zero if noting is found) for it;
2. all messages are in a single style (nuances are in errdetails);
3. "select"s are in uppercase, rephrased and moved a comment block in test;
4. several tests are added (also with supporting of "bytes" unit);
5. a sentence in a documentation is rephrased (numeric->fixed-point
number); "bytes" unit is added to both functions;
6. fixed indentation a little;
7. pfree is removed (it is easier than removing all other allocated resources).
I still think my changes are little and they are based on your work
(and research).
