Hi,
I stumbled across a minor issue in xlog.c:1030: the WAL_DEBUG code block
there passes rdata->data to the rm_desc() methode. However, that's only
the first XLogRecData struct, not the entire XLog record. So the
rm_desc() method effectively reports spurious data for any subsequent part.
Take a commit record with subxacts as an example: during XLogInsert,
Postgres reports the following:
LOG: INSERT @ 0/16F3270: prev 0/16F3234; xid 688; len 16: Transaction -
commit: 2012-10-11 09:31:17.790368-07; subxacts: 3214563816
Note that the xid in subxacts is way off. During recovery from WAL, the
record is logged correctly:
LOG: REDO @ 0/16F3270; LSN 0/16F329C: prev 0/16F3234; xid 688; len 16:
Transaction - commit: 2012-10-11 09:31:17.790368-07; subxacts: 689
Attached is a possible fix.
Regards
Markus Wanner
