Thank you for making patches! Here are review comments.
skip_xid_correctly.diff:
- if (nxids < 0)
+ if (nxids <= 0)
elog(ERROR, "invalid nxids argument: %lld", (long long) nxids);
-
- if (nxids == 0)
- lastxid = ReadNextFullTransactionId();
else
lastxid = consume_xids_common(InvalidFullTransactionId, (uint64) nxids);
After calling elog(ERROR) we don't return here, so the "else" is not
necessary. That is, we can rewrite it to:
if (nxids <= 0)
elog(ERROR, "invalid nxids argument: %lld", (long long) nxids);
lastxid = consume_xids_common(InvalidFullTransactionId, (uint64) nxids);

+ *
+ * If no top-level XID is assigned, a new one is obtained,
+ * and the consumed XID counter is incremented.
I'm not sure this comment is appropriate since what we do here is
obvious and the comment doesn't explain why we do that. IMO we don't
need to update these comments.
support_blksz_32k.diff:
- if (xids_left > 2000 &&
+ if (xids_left > COMMIT_TS_XACTS_PER_PAGE &&
I think it's better to just replace 2000 with 4000 and explain why
4000 is sufficient. Probably we can define '#define
XID_SHORTCUT_THRESHOLD 4000" and put an assertion to XidSkip() or
consume_xids_common() to check if the number of consumed XIDs doesn't
exceed XID_SHORTCUT_THRESHOLD.
