Hi I got a report from Gabriele Bartolini and team that the pg_settings view does not get the pending_restart flag set when a setting's line is removed from a file (as opposed to its value changed). The explanation seems to be that GUC_PENDING_RESTART is set by set_config_option, but when ProcessConfigFileInternal is called only to provide data (applySettings=true), then set_config_option is never called and thus the flag doesn't get set. I tried the attached patch, which sets GUC_PENDING_RESTART if we're doing pg_file_settings(). Then any subsequent read of pg_settings will have the pending_restart flag set. This seems to work correctly, and consistently with the case where you change a line (without removing it) in unpatched master. You could argue that this is *weird* (why does reading pg_file_settings set a flag in global state?) ... but that weirdness is not something this patch is introducing. -- Álvaro Herrera PostgreSQL Developer — https://www.EnterpriseDB.com/ "Hay dos momentos en la vida de un hombre en los que no debería especular: cuando puede permitírselo y cuando no puede" (Mark Twain)
