Yeah. The padding bytes in TwoPhaseFileHeader were not initialized.
That's simple enough to fix, but when I run valgrind, I get a lot whole
bunch of similar messages. A few are from pgstat: the padding bytes in the
pgstat messages are not initialized. One comes from
write_relcache_init_file(); again I believe it's padding bytes being
uninitialized (in FormData_pg_attribute). And one from the XLogInsert from
heap_insert; there's an uninitialized padding byte in xl_heap_insert. And so
forth.. Is it worthwhile to hunt down all of these? If there aren't many
more than these, it probably is worth it, but I fear this might be an
endless effort. Have we been clean of these warnings at any point in the
past?
Did you use the valgrind suppression file in src/tools? It suppresses
some "known harmless" cases.
Ah, I did not. With the file, the original warning that started this
thread is gone; you added a suppression for it in commit
9a0a12f683235d3e10b873baba974f6414297a7e.
