Serge, is there some particular reason why cant we make them 1:1
mapping to txn flags? Ie
IPROTO_FLAG_WAIT_SYNC = 0x10,
IPROTO_FLAG_WAIT_ACK = 0x20,
this would allow us to eliminate branching in code. While txn flags
are not part of API and iproto flags _are_ I don't expect the former
to be changed anyhow soon?
Not insisting though, just share the idea.

Please don't ruine alignment here. I know that Vlad prefer dense style
(which is actually hard to parse by eyes at least for me) but here we
have a block which ether should be whole formatted to dense or kept
aligned.

When mentioning branching I meant this code. We could use 1:1 mapping
here if we define iproto flags to be the same as txn flags.
Or say some explicit map could be provided (for readability sake)
static const uint8_t opt_flags_map[] = {
[TXN_WAIT_SYNC] = IPROTO_FLAG_WAIT_SYNC,
[TXN_WAIT_ACK] = IPROTO_FLAG_WAIT_ACK,
};
req->opt_flags |= opt_flags_map[txn->flags & IPROTO_FLAG_WAIT_SYNC];
req->opt_flags |= opt_flags_map[txn->flags & IPROTO_FLAG_WAIT_ACK];
Such technique is widely used when need some mapping between flags and
instead of number of `if` one simply use read-only memory.
On the other hands I'm fine with branching here because this is not
that hot code and even misprediction should not harm much. So just
to share the ideas.

There is no need to define another dependency, actually I think
the compiler will figure out that @first_glob_row and @start
are initialized from same @entry->rows still previously this
was more clear, iow I propose to leave `first_glob_row = entry->rows;`

Why can't we use
(*row)->opt_flags = entry->opt_flags | IPROTO_FLAG_COMMIT;
instead?

Serge, I know that you mention bitfields in the mail in context of our
discussion and I assume you'll rework this otherwise this will be
just a hidden bug which might work for sometime but one day it will
trigger and we won't even be able to figure out why.
