I'm not too sure I've qualified for giving a meaningful design review
here, but I have started looking at the patches and so far only made
it as far as 0006.
I noted down the following while reading:
v2-0001:
1. BufferCheckOneLocalPin needs a header comment
v2-0002:
2. The following comment and corresponding code to release the
extension lock has been moved now.
/*
* Release the file-extension lock; it's now OK for someone else to extend
* the relation some more.
*/
I think it's worth detailing out why it's fine to release the
extension lock in the new location. You've added detail to the commit
message but I think you need to do the same in the comments too.
v2-0003
3. FileFallocate() and FileZero() should likely document what they
return, i.e zero on success and non-zero on failure.
4. I'm not quite clear on why you've modified FileGetRawDesc() to call
FileAccess() twice.
v2-0004:
5. Is it worth having two versions of PinLocalBuffer() one to adjust
the usage count and one that does not? Couldn't the version that does
not adjust the count skip doing pg_atomic_read_u32()?
v2-0005
v2-0006
