-1 from me. We have the function context and the structure name there to represent that the parameter name 'state' is actually 'backup state'. I don't think we gain anything here. Whenever the BackupState is used away from any function, the variable name backup_state is used, static variable in xlogfuncs.c -- Bharath Rupireddy PostgreSQL Contributors Team RDS Open Source Databases Amazon Web Services: https://aws.amazon.com
