Hi,
I have stated review of
0008-Provide-interfaces-to-store-and-fetch-undo-records.patch, here are few
quick comments.
1) README.undointerface should provide more information like API details or
the sequence in which API should get called.
2) Information about the API's in the undoaccess.c file header block would
good. For reference please look at heapam.c.
3) typo
+ * Later, during insert phase we will write actual records into thse
buffers.
+ */
%s/thse/these
4) UndoRecordUpdateTransInfo() comments says that this must be called under
the critical section, but seems like undo_xlog_apply_progress() do call it
outside of critical section? Is there exception, then should add comments?
or Am I missing anything?
5) In function UndoBlockGetFirstUndoRecord() below code:
/* Calculate the size of the partial record. */
partial_rec_size = UndoRecordHeaderSize(phdr->uur_info) +
phdr->tuple_len + phdr->payload_len -
phdr->record_offset;
can directly use UndoPagePartialRecSize().
6)
+static int
+UndoGetBufferSlot(UndoRecordInsertContext *context,
+ RelFileNode rnode,
+ BlockNumber blk,
+ ReadBufferMode rbm)
+{
+ int i;
In the above code variable "i" is mean "block index". It would be good
to give some valuable name to the variable, maybe "blockIndex" ?
7)
* We will also keep a previous undo record pointer to the first and last
undo
* record of the transaction in the previous log. The last undo record
* location is used find the previous undo record pointer during rollback.

12)
/*

double space between "to" and "update"
13)
* The undo record should be freed by the caller by calling
ReleaseUndoRecord.
* This function will old the pin on the buffer where we read the previous
undo

context
%s/old/hold
I will continue further review for the same patch.
