The reason why I declare these two functions are: (1) the fields of ParallelVacuumState are not exposed and (2) bulk-deletion and cleanup require different arguments (estimated_count is required only by cleanup). So if we expose the fields of ParallelVacuumState, the caller can do those assignments and directly call parallel_vacuum_all_indexes(). But I'm not sure it's good if those assignments are the caller's responsibility. Regards, -- Masahiko Sawada EDB: https://www.enterprisedb.com/
