Refactor xlog.c #1 - startup.c

От

Patch removes stuff related to "startup process" and creates files
under src/$DIR/postmaster for this code.

This makes startup process look more like bgwriter, walwriter etc..

Other refactoring patches to follow, chipping away at xlog.c.

In general, +1.

But I don't think we want duplicate function prototypes for the same
functions, so -1 for this hunk:

+ /* in xlog.c */
+ extern void WakeupRecovery(void);
+ extern void StartupXLOG(void);

The existing prototypes in xlog.h seem like they should be just fine.

IsPromoteTriggered could be simplified to just "return
promote_triggered;"; you don't need to branch.

I think one thing that would be worth considering in terms of future
refactoring is to split up the gigantic StartupXLOG() function in some
fashion.

Thanks for the review.

That was to avoid having startup.c include xlog.h, which it doesn't
really need to see.

Not worried either way, so I'll do as you suggest.

Happy to do that.

There are a great many other long functions in Postgres, and few of
them as critical as that one.

I don't see a reason to touch it, and would do so last of all of any
code in xlog.c

Double prototypes seems to me like it's a cure worse than the disease to me...

+1.

Doubling them was just a mistake. Anyway, thats gone now.
