  1. pq_setkeepalives* functions

    Jaime Casanova <jcasanov@systemguards.com.ec> — 2010-03-13T04:48:24Z

    Hi,
    
    In 2 of 3 pq_setkeepalives* functions we have the #DEFINE involving
    even this conditional:
    """
        if (port == NULL || IS_AF_UNIX(port->laddr.addr.ss_family))
            return STATUS_OK;
    """
    
    but in pq_setkeepalivesinterval() the #DEFINE is after the
    conditional, doesn't seems to affect anything but for consistency with
    the other two :)

    This makes the function *not* like the other two, rather than
    improving consistency.

    Well, it makes it like some of the existing functions, but not like
    others.  This applied patch fixes them all.

    This is making things worse, not better.  You have just changed the
    behavior, and not in a good way.  Formerly these were no-ops on
    a unix socket connection, and now they can throw errors.

    OK, reverted.  Let me study the entire file.

    Clarification, both changes reverted.

    Is this the proper way to fix the issue?  Patch attached.

    AFAICS there is no issue, and the code is fine as-is.
    
    Modifying the "get" functions as you propose would be harmless, but it's
    also not an improvement, since it would result in redundant code in the
    functions when those macros aren't defined.
    
    I don't see any real advantage in making the set and get functions
    look slightly more alike.  They're doing different things.

    OK, thanks for the analysis.
