The other usage of PathNameOpenFile in md.c is already using 'fd' as a variable name (also, if you see example in fd.h, that also uses fd as variable name), so I don't see any problem with using fd especially if that leads to lesser changes. Apart from that, your patch LGTM. > The recovery TAP tests don't seem to be there on 9.4 and 9.5 branch, > so I think it's ok to not have any tests with the patches on these > branches that don't have the tap tests. > Yeah, that is fine. -- With Regards, Amit Kapila.
