Here are the comments:
In open_walfile(), "zerobuf" needs to be free'd after use of it.
+ f = open(fn, O_WRONLY | O_CREAT | PG_BINARY, 0666);
We should use "S_IRUSR | S_IWUSR" instead of "0666" as a file access modes?
+ if (write(f, zerobuf, XLOG_BLCKSZ) != XLOG_BLCKSZ)
+ {
+ fprintf(stderr, _("%s: could not pad WAL segment %s:
%s\n"),
+ progname, fn, strerror(errno));
+ close(f);
+ return -1;
+ }
When write() fails, we should delete the partial WAL file, like
XLogFileInit() does?
If not, subsequent pg_receivexlog always fails unless a user deletes
it manually.
Because open_walfile() always fails when it finds an existing partial WAL file.
When open_walfile() fails, pg_receivexlog exits without closing the connection.
I don't think this is good error handling. But this issue itself is
not what we're
trying to address now. So I think you can commit separately from current patch.
