It seems like an unnecessary change.

Why did you move the timestamp?

Looks unnecessary too.

Hmm.. you didn't add a field for HIST_FIELD_FL_VAR but it attempts to
update it, no?

This means if there's a var-only field, the whole hist will be treated
as var-only, right?  What if it has normal fields and var-only fields
at the same time?  Didn't it have "hitcount"?  Please see below..

Looks like var-only hist cannot have hitcount, right?

If a var-only hist hist can have multiple fields, it should print ","
as well IMHO.  Also it seems "common_timestamp" also needs it.
