Re: [PROPOSAL] VACUUM Progress Checker.

Hello,

>I think that you should add the flag or something which indicates whether this backend is running VACUUM or not, into PgBackendStatus.
>pg_stat_vacuum_progress should display the entries of only backends with that flag set true. This design means that you need to set the flag to true when starting VACUUM and reset at the end of VACUUM progressing.
Please find attached updated patch which adds a flag in PgBackendStatus which indicates whether this backend in running VACUUM.
Also, pgstat_report_progress function is changed to make it generic for all commands reporting progress.

Thank you,
Rahila Syed
