Subject: pgsql: Prevent pg_enable/disable_data_checksums() on standby
Date: Thu, 30 Apr 2026 11:46:34 +0000
Message-ID: <E1wIPqk-003SOT-0X@gemulon.postgresql.org> (raw)

Prevent pg_enable/disable_data_checksums() on standby

These functions missed a RecoveryInProgress() check, allowing them to
be called on a hot standby.  Enabling, or disabling, checksums on the
standby only would cause the cluster to get out of sync and replaying
checksum transitions to fail.
