In general, +1.
But I don't think we want duplicate function prototypes for the same
functions, so -1 for this hunk:
+ /* in xlog.c */
+ extern void WakeupRecovery(void);
+ extern void StartupXLOG(void);
The existing prototypes in xlog.h seem like they should be just fine.
IsPromoteTriggered could be simplified to just "return
promote_triggered;"; you don't need to branch.
I think one thing that would be worth considering in terms of future
refactoring is to split up the gigantic StartupXLOG() function in some
fashion.
