That looks ok to see PGPROC as an "acceptable" one, if not, should we use the
union trick?
It seems acceptable to just not align it if the compiler doesn't support it.
This is just a performance optimization, after all.
Agreed.
Attached is new versions the remaining patches. I think these are ready to
be committed.
Thanks!
One nit, 0001 is adding the typedef:
"
-struct PGPROC
+typedef struct PGPROC
.
.
.
-};
-
-/* NOTE: "typedef struct PGPROC PGPROC" appears in storage/lock.h. */
+ uint32 wait_event_info; /* proc's wait information */
+} PGPROC;
"
Would that make more sense to add the typedef when we introduce the explicit
alignment in 0002 (like it was done in your previous
v2-0001-Align-PGPROC-to-cache-line-boundary.patch up-thread)?
Yeah, I had it as part of the other commit in the previous version, but
decided to make it part of the other one, so that it's more clear what
the alignment. I don't think it matters much either way though.
Pushed, thanks for the review!
