[ looks into that... ] The funny blkno is attributable to this overly-cute code: case XLOG_GIN_UPDATE_META_PAGE: appendStringInfo(buf, "Update metapage, "); desc_node(buf, ((ginxlogUpdateMeta *) rec)->node, ((ginxlogUpdateMeta *) rec)->metadata.tail); break; and we also have case XLOG_GIN_DELETE_LISTPAGE: appendStringInfo(buf, "Delete list pages (%d), ", ((ginxlogDeleteListPages *) rec)->ndeleted); desc_node(buf, ((ginxlogDeleteListPages *) rec)->node, ((ginxlogDeleteListPages *) rec)->metadata.head); break; While there could be some point in printing the list head or tail pointer, it's just confusing to print it with a label of "blkno". I think we should just print the metapage block number here and be done with it. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-admin mailing list (pgsql-admin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-admin
