I've committed that.
Thanks, and thanks for catching be_gssapi_write(), which I had missed due to not having gssapi enabled in my test build. > Here is a new patch set rebased over that. I had a more thorough read-through this time (as well as applying and building it), and it does make the code a lot more readable. I noticed you in some places added extra parens around remaining casts with offset additions, e.g. - XLogRegisterData((char *) old_key_tuple->t_data + SizeofHeapTupleHeader, + XLogRegisterData(((char *) old_key_tuple->t_data) + SizeofHeapTupleHeader, old_key_tuple->t_len - SizeofHeapTupleHeader); But not in others: - memcpy((char *) tuple->t_data + SizeofHeapTupleHeader, - (char *) data, - datalen); + memcpy((char *) tuple->t_data + SizeofHeapTupleHeader, data, datalen); I don't have a particularly strong opinion either way (maybe -0.2 on the extra parens), but I mainly think we should keep it consistent, and not change it gratuitously. Greppig indicates to me that the paren-less version is more common: $ git grep -P '\(\w+\s*\**\) [\w>-]+ \+ \w+' | wc -l 283 $ git grep -P '\(\(\w+\s*\**\) [\w>-]+\) \+ \w+' | wc -l 96 So I think we should leave them as they are. - ilmari
