pgsql: Rework handling of OOM when allocating record buffer in XLOG rea - Mailing list pgsql-committers

Rework handling of OOM when allocating record buffer in XLOG reader.

Commit 2c03216 changed allocate_recordbuf() so that it uses a palloc to
allocate the read buffer and fails immediately when an out-of-memory error
shows up, even though its callers still expect that NULL is returned in that
case. This bug is fixed making allocate_recordbuf() use a palloc_extended
with MCXT_ALLOC_NO_OOM flag and return NULL in OOM case.
