Thank you for updating the patches.
According to the following old comment, there might be reason why we
didn't pass the information to vacuum_rel(). But your patch fetches
the relation
name even if the "relation" is not provided. I wonder if it can be
problem in some cases.
- * If the RangeVar is not defined, we do not have
enough information
- * to provide a meaningful log statement. Chances are that
- * vacuum_rel's caller has intentionally not provided
this information
- * so that this logging is skipped, anyway.
+ * If relname is NULL, we do not have enough
information to provide a
+ * meaningful log statement. Chances are that this
information was
+ * intentionally not provided so that this logging is
skipped, anyway.
It would be an another discussion but autovacuum logs usually use
explicit names. Since the following two logs could be emitted by
autovacuum I wonder if we can make an explicit relation name if we're
autovacuum.
if (elevel != 0)
{
if (!rel_lock)
ereport(elevel,
(errcode(ERRCODE_LOCK_NOT_AVAILABLE),
errmsg("skipping vacuum of \"%s\" --- lock not available",
relname)));
else
ereport(elevel,
(errcode(ERRCODE_UNDEFINED_TABLE),
errmsg("skipping vacuum of \"%s\" --- relation
no longer exists",
relname)));
}
