Re: Synchronizing slots from primary to standby - Mailing list pgsql-hackers

Here are some review comments for the patch v67-0001.

======
1.
There are a couple of places checking for failover usage on a standby.

+ if (RecoveryInProgress() && failover)
+ ereport(ERROR,
+ errcode(ERRCODE_FEATURE_NOT_SUPPORTED),
+ errmsg("cannot enable failover for a replication slot"
+    " created on the standby"));

and

+ if (RecoveryInProgress() && failover)
+ ereport(ERROR,
+ errcode(ERRCODE_FEATURE_NOT_SUPPORTED),
+ errmsg("cannot enable failover for a replication slot"
+    " on the standby"));

IMO the conditions should be written the other way around (failover &&
RecoveryInProgress()) to avoid the unnecessary function calls when
'failover' flag is probably mostly default false anyway.
