Re: [PATCH 03/10] t-reftable-block: use reftable_record_equal() instead of check_str()

> In the current testing setup, operations like read and write for
> reftable blocks as defined by reftable/block.{c, h} are verified by
> comparing only the keys of input and output reftable records. This is
> not ideal because there can exist inequal reftable records with the
> same key. Use the dedicated function for record comparison,
> reftable_record_equal() instead of key-based comparison.
