I meant this was a doc update in 0004 patch but it's fixed in v7 patch.
While testing the v7 patch, I got the following result with
max_slot_wal_keep_size = 5GB and without wal_keep_segments setting.
=# select pg_current_wal_lsn(), slot_name, restart_lsn,
confirmed_flush_lsn, wal_status, remain, pg_size_pretty(remain) from
pg_replication_slots ;
pg_current_wal_lsn | slot_name | restart_lsn | confirmed_flush_lsn |
wal_status | remain | pg_size_pretty
--------------------+-----------+-------------+---------------------+------------+----------+----------------
2/A30000D8 | l1 | 1/AC000910 | 1/AC000948 |
streaming | 16777000 | 16 MB
(1 row)
The actual distance between the slot limit and the slot 'l1' is about
1GB(5GB - (2/A30000D8 - 1/AC000910)) but the system view says the
remain is only 16MB. For the calculation of resetBytes in
GetOldestKeepSegment(), the current patch seems to calculate the
distance between the minSlotLSN and restartLSN when (curLSN -
max_slot_wal_keep_size) < minSlotLSN. However, I think that the actual
remained bytes until the slot lost the required WAL is (restartLSN -
(currLSN - max_slot_wal_keep_size)) in that case.
Also, 0004 patch needs to be rebased on the current HEAD.
