Hi all,
I tried to replicate the temporary file compression issue by applying the two patches shared in the thread on current PostgreSQL master.
here is what i observed,
1) patch 1:0001-Add-transparent-compression-for-temporary-files.patch
when applying the first patch it ultimately fails to apply due to context mismatches.

failures i see are in the following files:
src/backend/storage/file/buffile.c
src/backend/utils/misc/guc_tables.c
src/backend/utils/misc/postgresql.conf.sample

2) The second patch 0002-Add-regression-tests-for-temporary-file-compression.patch ,applies successfully without any issues.

Does it mean that the implementation patch needs to be rebased or otherwise adjusted for the current codebase, and if so, what would be the recommended way to proceed?could you please suggest how I should apply the implementation patch in this case?


regards
lakshmi

This often seems to fail during tests:
