Subject: pgsql: Assert consistency of currPage that ended scan.
Date: Fri, 08 Nov 2024 21:34:55 +0000
Message-ID: <E1t9Wd5-000sav-9K@gemulon.postgresql.org> (raw)

Assert consistency of currPage that ended scan.

When _bt_readnextpage is called with our nbtree parallel scan already
seized (i.e. when it is directly called by _bt_first), we never expect a
prior call to _bt_readpage for lastcurrblkno to already indicate that
the scan should end -- the _bt_first caller's blkno must always be read.
After all, the "prior" _bt_readpage call (the call for lastcurrblkno)
probably took place in some other backend (and it might not even have
finished by the time our backend reaches _bt_first/_bt_readnextpage).

Add a documenting assertion to the path where _bt_readnextpage ends the
parallel scan based on information about lastcurrblkno from so->currPos.
Assert that the most recent _bt_readpage call that set so->currPos is in
fact lastcurrblkno's _bt_readpage call.

Follow-up to bugfix commit b5ee4e52.
