From a7bcf391f329561307a3d936443a715ad74a2e9d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tom Lane Date: Sun, 6 Sep 2020 11:50:41 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] Remove useless lstat() call in pg_rewind. This is duplicative of an lstat that was just done by the calling function (traverse_datadir), besides which we weren't really doing anything with the results. There's not much point in checking to see if someone removed the file since the previous lstat, since the FILE_ACTION_REMOVE code would have to deal with missing-file cases anyway. Moreover, the "exists = false" assignment was a dead store; nothing was done with that value later. A syscall saved is a syscall earned, so back-patch to 9.5 where this code was introduced.
