What about removing the memcpy entirely? I don't think we save anything
much useful here by pallocing the exact length, rather than doing what
int4out does and palloc a fixed size and convert the int directly into
it.
i.e.
Datum
int8out(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS)
{
int64 val = PG_GETARG_INT64(0);
char *result = palloc(MAXINT8LEN + 1);
pg_lltoa(val, result);
PG_RETURN_CSTRING(result);
}
For pg_ltoa, etc., I don't like adding the extra call to pg_ultoa_n - at
least on my clang, that results in two copies of pg_ultoa_n inlined.
How about doing it like,
int
pg_lltoa(int64 value, char *a)
{
int len = 0;
uint64 uvalue = value;
if (value < 0)
{
uvalue = (uint64) 0 - uvalue;
a[len++] = '-';
}
len += pg_ulltoa_n(uvalue, a + len);
a[len] = '\0';
return len;
}
