Few comments: 1. + else if (strcmp(elem->defname, "skip-empty-streams") == 0) + { + if (elem->arg == NULL) + data->skip_empty_streams = true; + else if (!parse_bool(strVal(elem->arg), &data->skip_empty_streams)) + ereport(ERROR, + (errcode(ERRCODE_INVALID_PARAMETER_VALUE), + errmsg("could not parse value \"%s\" for parameter \"%s\"", + strVal(elem->arg), elem->defname))); + if (!data->skip_empty_xacts && data->skip_empty_streams) + ereport(ERROR, + (errcode(ERRCODE_INVALID_PARAMETER_VALUE), + errmsg("the skip-empty-streams can not be true if skip-empty-xacts is false"))); } You can probably add a comment as to why we are disallowing this case. I thought of considering 'stream-changes' parameter here because it won't make sense to give this parameter without it, however, it seems that is not necessary but maybe adding a comment here in that regard would be a good idea. 2. pg_decode_begin_txn(LogicalDecodingContext *ctx, ReorderBufferTXN *txn) { TestDecodingData *data = ctx->output_plugin_private; + TestDecodingTxnData *txndata = + MemoryContextAllocZero(ctx->context, sizeof(TestDecodingTxnData)); + Shall we free this memory at commit time for the sake of consistency, otherwise also it would be freed with decoding context? 3. Can you please prepare a separate patch for test case changes so that it would be easier to verify that it fails without the patch and passed after the patch? -- With Regards, Amit Kapila.
