I think this overload of optype and op header flags is sufficiently
subtle and fragile that this warrants a comment. E.g., something like:
"Now that we've written the start record, we must clear the flag now so
it doesn't leak into subsequent op headers."
Otherwise, I think it's pretty much a guarantee that somebody will come
along later and attempt to optimize away what looks like an unnecessary
boolean by moving the flag clear further down without realizing why it's
here.
In fact, I think what would have been more clean and simple overall is
to translate the new optype param back into the preexisting flags (as a
local variable) and need_start_rec parameters right after optype is
consumed by xlog_write_calc_vec_length(). Then we wouldn't have to tweak
as much functional logic to accommodate a subtle variable overload
(i.e., basically just removing code changes from this patch) and the
code would be self explanatory. That said, the remaining changes look Ok
to me so long as the above is clearly documented.
