Thanks!
When I compiled the source with xlogdiff.patch, I got the following warnings.
xlogfuncs.c:511:2: warning: format '%lX' expects argument of type
'long unsigned int *', but argument 3 has type 'uint64 *' [-Wformat]

When I tested the patch, I got the following error:
postgres=# SELECT pg_current_xlog_location();
pg_current_xlog_location

postgres=# SELECT pg_xlog_location_diff('0/2000074', '0/2000074');

The functions shown in <xref

These functions cannot be executed during recovery.
</para>
Since pg_xlog_location_diff() can be executed during recovery,
the above needs to be updated.

I agree it's necessary.

According to the above source code comment in pg_proc.h, ISTM
pg_size_pretty() for numeric also needs to have its own DESCR().
+ buf = DatumGetCString(DirectFunctionCall1(numeric_out,
NumericGetDatum(size)));
+ result = strcat(buf, " kB");
According to "man strcat", the dest string must have enough space for
the result.
"buf" has enough space?
