Subject: pgsql: pgindent: Fix indentation of alignas() in struct members
Date: Wed, 23 Sep 2026 07:32:22 +0000
Message-ID: <E1x9HSo-00000000sjR-1vVL@gemulon.postgresql.org> (raw)

pgindent: Fix indentation of alignas() in struct members

pg_bsd_indent doesn't know about alignas(), so a struct member
declared with it is misindented unless it's the first member.

Disguise each alignas(...) call as a plain identifier while
indenting, restoring it afterward.  Stash the call's original text
by index rather than embedding it in the placeholder: embedding only
works for a single-token argument, and fails to match at all against
nested parens (e.g. alignas(sizeof(x))) or a line break, silently
skipping the disguise.

This is backpatched to PostgreSQL 19 because it is by coincidence
needed for a bug fix.
