Three patches which desperately need reviewers

All,

We're almost at the end of the CommitFest, and three patches have not
yet been reviewed:

lazy vxid locks
https://commitfest.postgresql.org/action/patch_view?id=585

sepgsql - userspace access vector cache
https://commitfest.postgresql.org/action/patch_view?id=578

Allow multiple Postgres clusters running on the same machine to
distinguish themselves in the event log
https://commitfest.postgresql.org/action/patch_view?id=562

Also, this patch has been updated and the original reviewer is not
available:

Add ability to constrain backend temporary file space
https://commitfest.postgresql.org/action/patch_view?id=533

The first two are difficult patches, but the other two are not. Please
volunteer to give these patches a review; we owe it to our contributors
to review everything before the end of the CF.

I can try to review that. It does seems to depend on
the fastlock patch though, and that patch seems to be
somewhat of a moving target. I'm thus not sure what the
most reasonable approach is here. I could wait for the
fastlock patch to be applied, but since the commitfest
is drawing to a close that might not be the best course
of action. How is such a situation handled usually?

best regards,
Florian Pflug

Moving target? Hopefully not. I marked it "ready for committer" already.
I did give some feedback, but it's nothing that would get in the way of
reviewing the VXID patch.

So please do take a look at the VXID patch. Just apply it over the last
version of the fastlock patch.

I also plan to take a look, but the earliest will be tomorrow.

Regards,
Jeff Davis

When is the end of the CF? (I'm strongly suspecting today, but haven't
been able to find it with a quick search)

The scheduled end date is today, but we're obviously not ready.

I've reviewed this now, but I won't have time to take it across the
finishing line in time for this CF. Regrettable, since the author came
back with a response really quick. I propose we bump it to the next CF
and I'll try to work on it before we even enter into that CF - unless
somebody else feels comfortable taking it all the way. But given that
it's been pending so long, I doubt that, but I'l be happy to deal with
it in-between.
