Hello hackers! The functions, bootstrapping SLRU pages, such as BootStrapMultiXact, BootStrapCLOG, ActivateCommitTs, multixact_redo and others, have a lot of repetitive code. A new proposed function BootStrapSlruPage moves a duplicating code into the single place. Additionally, a new member ZeroFunc is implemented in the SlruCtlData structure. The ZeroFunc keeps a pointer to a function proper for nullifying SLRU pages of a type defined by a corresponding SlruCtlData object. Applying proposed modifications can simplify maintenance and future development of Postgres code in the realm of bootstrapping SLRU. Best regards, Evgeny Voropaev, Tantor Labs LLC.
