I have updated the patch so now we skip the XLOG_DBASE_CREATE_WAL_LOG
as well if the tablespace directory is missing. But with our new
wal_log method there will be other follow up wal logs like,
XLOG_RELMAP_UPDATE, XLOG_SMGR_CREATE and XLOG_FPI.
I have put the similar logic for relmap_update WAL replay as well, but
we don't need this for smgr_create or fpi. Because the mdcreate() is
taking care of creating missing directory in TablespaceCreateDbspace()
and fpi only logged after we create the new smgr at least in case of
create database.
Now, is it possible to get the FPI without smgr_create wal in other
cases? If it is then that problem is orthogonal to this path, but
anyway I could not find any such scenario.
