Attached is v2 of the patch, that
(a) adds explicit fsync on the parent directory after all the rename()
calls in timeline.c, xlog.c, xlogarchive.c and pgarch.c
(b) adds START/END_CRIT_SECTION around the new fsync_fname calls
(except for those in timeline.c, as the START/END_CRIT_SECTION is
not available there)
The patch is fairly trivial and I've done some rudimentary testing, but I'm
sure I haven't exercised all the modified paths.
I would like to have an in-depth look at that after finishing the
current CF, I am the manager of this one after all... Could you
register it to 2016-01 CF for the time being? I don't mind being
beaten by someone else if this someone has some room to look at this
patch..
And please feel free to add my name as reviewer.
Tomas, I am planning to have a look at that, because it seems to be
important. In case it becomes lost on my radar, do you mind if I add
it to the 2016-03 CF?
Well, what else can I do? I have to admit I'm quite surprised this is
still rotting here, considering it addresses a rather serious data loss
/ corruption issue on pretty common setup.
