But we are not checking the log level when we are writing the logs in
the logfiles.
Due to this, extra logs can appear.

I think along with it we should also check the actual contents of each file.

I noticed that we do not define pg_log_warning, pg_log_warning_detail
and pg_log_warning_hint, due to this the contents when option
'--logdir' is specified and when it is not defined can differ. Should
we define these as well?

Also  internal_log_file_write is declared as:
+static void
+           internal_log_file_write(const char *format,...)
__attribute__((format(printf, 1, 2)));
Should we use 'pg_attribute_printf' instead of
__attribute__((format(printf, 1, 2)))?

I have added the changes for above in the topup patch. I also did some
cosmetic changes.
I have also addressed the comment (2) by Shveta in [1].

If you agree with these changes, please feel free to include them in the patch.
