Subject: pgsql: Skip WAL recycling and preallocation during archive recovery.
Date: Tue, 29 Jun 2021 01:36:06 +0000
Message-ID: <E1ly2fW-0002b1-3Q@gemulon.postgresql.org> (raw)

Skip WAL recycling and preallocation during archive recovery.

The previous commit addressed the chief consequences of a race condition
between InstallXLogFileSegment() and KeepFileRestoredFromArchive().  Fix
three lesser consequences.  A spurious durable_rename_excl() LOG message
remained possible.  KeepFileRestoredFromArchive() wasted the proceeds of
WAL recycling and preallocation.  Finally, XLogFileInitInternal() could
return a descriptor for a file that KeepFileRestoredFromArchive() had
already unlinked.  That felt like a recipe for future bugs.
