Subject: pgsql: Improve some error messages with invalid indexes for REINDEX CON

Message-ID: <E1rB6wT-008yi7-UH@gemulon.postgresql.org> (raw)

Improve some error messages with invalid indexes for REINDEX CONCURRENTLY

An invalid index is skipped when doing REINDEX CONCURRENTLY at table
level, with INDEX_CORRUPTED used as errcode.  This is confusing,
because an invalid index could exist after an interruption.  The errcode
is switched to OBJECT_NOT_IN_PREREQUISITE_STATE instead, as per a
suggestion from Andres Freund.

While on it, the error messages are reworded, and a hint is added,
telling how to rebuild an invalid index in this case.  This has been
suggested by Noah Misch.
