Hi all I'd like to share the attached PG_LSN.pm module that I use when writing TAP tests. I suggest that it be considered for inclusion in core.
It defines a Perl datatype PG_LSN with operator support, so you can
write things like
cmp_ok($got_lsn, "<", $expected_lsn, "testname")
in TAP tests and get sensible results without any concern for LSN
representation details, locale, etc. You can subtract LSNs to get a
byte difference too.
It's small but I've found it handy.
