Message-ID: <E1rvDTA-001isb-Mj@gemulon.postgresql.org> (raw)
Fix the review comments and a bug in the slot sync code.
Ensure that when updating the catalog_xmin of the synced slots, it is
first written to disk before changing the in-memory value
(effective_catalog_xmin). This is to prevent a scenario where the
in-memory value change triggers a vacuum to remove catalog tuples before
the catalog_xmin is written to disk. In the event of a crash before the
catalog_xmin is persisted, we would not know that some required catalog
tuples have been removed and the synced slot would be invalidated.
Change the sanity check to ensure that remote_slot's confirmed_flush LSN
can't precede the local/synced slot during slot sync. Note that the
restart_lsn of the synced/local slot can be ahead of remote_slot. This can
happen when slot advancing machinery finds a running xacts record after
reaching the consistent state at a later point than the primary where it
serializes the snapshot and updates the restart_lsn.
Make the check to sync slots robust by allowing to sync only when the
confirmed_lsn, restart_lsn, or catalog_xmin of the remote slot is ahead of
the synced/local slot.
