Subject: pgsql: Re-read standby LSN after recovery ends
Date: Sat, 12 Sep 2026 20:30:50 +0000
Message-ID: <E1x5UN8-000000003rc-0g1k@gemulon.postgresql.org> (raw)

Re-read standby LSN after recovery ends

WaitForLSN() samples the current position before checking whether
recovery is still in progress. If recovery reaches the target and ends
between those operations, the promotion path can compare against the
stale sample and incorrectly return NOT_IN_RECOVERY.

Read the position again after observing that recovery has ended, before
deciding whether promotion reached the target.
