Hi All, This patch moves the pre-processing for tokens in the bki file from initdb to bootstrap. With these changes the bki file will only be opened once in bootstrap and parsing will be done by the bootstrap parser.
The flow of bki file processing will be as follows: - In initdb gather the values used to replace the tokens in the bki file. - Pass these values into postgres bootstrap startup using '-i' option as key-value pairs. - In bootstrap open the bki file (the bki file name was received as a parameter). - During the parsing of the bki file, replace the tokens received as parameters with their values. Related discussion can be found here: https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/20220216021219.ygzrtb3hd5bn7olz%40alap3.anarazel.de Note: Currently the patch breaks on windows due to placement of extra quotes when passing parameters (Thanks to Thomas Munro for helping me find that). Will follow up with v2 fixing the windows issues on passing the parameters and format fixes. Please review and provide feedback. -- Thanks and Regards, Krishnakumar (KK). [Microsoft]
