A bit confusing here, particularly as the name is reused with ReplicationSlotAcquire() at the end of pg_logical_slot_get_changes_guts() once again. > reorderbuffer.c:4843:10: warning: declaration of ‘isnull’ shadows a > previous local [-Wshadow] > bool isnull; > ^ > reorderbuffer.c:4734:11: warning: shadowed declaration is here [-Wshadow] > bool *isnull; > ^ Agreed as well about this one. > walsender.c:3543:14: warning: declaration of ‘sentPtr’ shadows a > global declaration [-Wshadow] > XLogRecPtr sentPtr; > ^ > walsender.c:155:19: warning: shadowed declaration is here [-Wshadow] > static XLogRecPtr sentPtr = InvalidXLogRecPtr; > ^ This one looks pretty serious to me, particularly as the static sentPtr is used quite a bit. It is fortunate that the impact is limited to the WAL sender stat function. Fixing all these seems like a good thing in the long term, so OK for me. Like all the fixes similar to this one, I don't see a need for a backpatch based on their locality, even if sentPtr makes me a bit nervous to keep even in stable branches. There is much more going on with -Wshadow, but let's do things incrementally, case by case. -- Michael
