Thanks for the test script. (I did that with TAP framework but isolation tester version is simpler.) It adds a call to ReorderBufferAssignChild but usually subtransactions are assigned to top level elsewherae. Addition to that ReorderBufferCommitChild() called just later does the same thing. We are adding the third call to the same function, which looks a bit odd. And I'm not sure it is wise to mark all subtransactions as "catalog changed" always when the top transaction is XACT_XINFO_HAS_INVALS. The reason I did that in the snapshiot building phase is to prevent adding to DecodeCommit an extra code that is needed only while any transaction running since before replication start is surviving. regards. -- Kyotaro Horiguchi NTT Open Source Software Center
