Thanks a lot! I'll post the separation of record construction and
write-out to xlog in a future thread for 17.
One remaining question: Considering that the changes and checks of
that commit are mostly internal to xloginsert.c (or xlog.c in older
releases), and that no special public-facing changes were made, would
it be safe to backport this to older releases?
PostgreSQL 15 specifically would benefit from this as it supports
external rmgrs which may generate WAL records and would benefit from
these additional checks, but all supported releases of PostgreSQL have
pg_logical_emit_message and are thus easily subject to the issue of
writing oversized WAL records and subsequent recovery- and replication
stream failures.
Kind regards,
Matthias van de Meent
