Ok. I tested pg94_95_use_vfd_for_logrep.patch for 9.6 branch, and it works there. So please use this patch for all the three branches. > > > From PG 10 onwards, pgstat_report_*() calls around read() are removed > > in the patch, because FileRead() itself reports the wait events. > > > > Why there are different patches for 10 and 11? For PG10, OpenTransientFile() and PathNameOpenFile() each have an extra parameter for specifying file creation modes such as S_IRUSR or S_IWUSR. For 11, these functions don't accept the flags, rather the file is always opened with PG_FILE_MODE_OWNER. Because of these differences in the calls, the PG 10 patch does not apply on 11. > > We should try to minimize the difference between patches in different > branches.
