* [PATCH v35 2/5] Refactor index_concurrently_create_copy() for use with REPACK (CONCURRENTLY).

This patch moves the code to index_create_copy() and adds a "concurrently"
parameter so it can be used by REPACK (CONCURRENTLY).

With the CONCURRENTLY option, REPACK cannot simply swap the heap file and
rebuild its indexes. Instead, it needs to build a separate set of indexes
(including system catalog entries) *before* the actual swap, to reduce the
time AccessExclusiveLock needs to be held for.

* ci: Generate crashlogs on Windows

Hi,

cdb.exe was available on GHA Windows images but it wasn't configured
to generate crashlogs. Attached patch configures cdb.exe to generate
crashlogs to "<github.workspace>\crashlogs\" in
"crashlog-<pid-in-hex>.txt" format. Current upload logs step already
collects these logs so no change is needed there.

Most of the logic is copied from where (previous) Postgres CI Windows
images were generated [1]. When I use the '!adplusext.adpprocname'
debugger flag, the CI job hangs. It needs 'adplusext.dll' to run but
it isn't available on GHA Windows images.

Example GHA run which crashlogs are generated and collected:

Subject: [PATCH v1] ci: Generate crashlogs on Windows

cdb.exe is configured to log all crashes to
"<workspace>\crashlogs\crashlog-<pid-in-hex>.txt". Upload logs step
already configured to collect these logs, so no change is needed on
there.

Logic is copied from where Postgres CI Windows images are generated [1].
Since this step is too long, it is implemented as composite action.

Any reason to not just put this into src/tools/ci/<something>.ps1? Given that
we're just talking about a single step, I don't really see the benefit of a
composite action here.

Greetings,

Not any particular reason. I started implementing that in a pg-ci.yml,
then moved it to composite action when I realized it was too long. I
think having a script is better, so attached v2 uses that way.

Subject: [PATCH v2] ci: Generate crashlogs on Windows

cdb.exe is configured to log all crashes to
"<workspace>\crashlogs\crashlog-<pid-in-hex>.txt". Upload logs step
already configured to collect these logs, so no change is needed on
there.

Logic is copied from where Postgres CI Windows images are generated [1].
Since this step is too long, it is implemented as
'src/tools/ci/gha_setup_windows_debugger.ps1' script.

cdb.exe is configured to log all crashes to
"<workspace>\crashlogs\crashlog-<pid-in-hex>.txt". Upload logs step
already configured to collect these logs, so no change is needed on
there.

Logic is copied from where Postgres CI Windows images are generated [1].
Since this would be too long to include inline in pg-ci.yml, it is implemented
as 'src/tools/ci/gha_setup_windows_debugger.ps1' script.

cdb.exe is configured to log all crashes to
"<workspace>\crashlogs\crashlog-<pid-in-hex>.txt". Upload logs step
already configured to collect these logs, so no change is needed on
there.

Logic is copied from where Postgres CI Windows images are generated [1].
Since this would be too long to include inline in pg-ci.yml, it is implemented
as 'src/tools/ci/gha_setup_windows_debugger.ps1' script.

Since this would be too long to include inline in pg-ci.yml, it is implemented
as 'src/tools/ci/gha_setup_windows_debugger.ps1' script.

* [PATCH v13a 1/9] ci: Generate crashlogs on Windows

cdb.exe is configured to log all crashes to
"<workspace>\crashlogs\crashlog-<pid-in-hex>.txt". Upload logs step
already configured to collect these logs, so no change is needed on
there.

Logic is copied from where Postgres CI Windows images are generated [1].
Since this would be too long to include inline in pg-ci.yml, it is implemented
as 'src/tools/ci/gha_setup_windows_debugger.ps1' script.

* [PATCH v13a 1/9] ci: Generate crashlogs on Windows
@ 2026-06-11 13:15  Andres Freund <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 216+ messages in thread

From: Andres Freund @ 2026-06-11 13:15 UTC (permalink / raw)

cdb.exe is configured to log all crashes to
"<workspace>\crashlogs\crashlog-<pid-in-hex>.txt". Upload logs step
already configured to collect these logs, so no change is needed on
there.

Logic is copied from where Postgres CI Windows images are generated [1].
Since this would be too long to include inline in pg-ci.yml, it is implemented
as 'src/tools/ci/gha_setup_windows_debugger.ps1' script.

* [PATCH v13a 1/9] ci: Generate crashlogs on Windows
@ 2026-06-11 13:15  Andres Freund <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 216+ messages in thread

From: Andres Freund @ 2026-06-11 13:15 UTC (permalink / raw)

cdb.exe is configured to log all crashes to
"<workspace>\crashlogs\crashlog-<pid-in-hex>.txt". Upload logs step
already configured to collect these logs, so no change is needed on
there.

Logic is copied from where Postgres CI Windows images are generated [1].
Since this would be too long to include inline in pg-ci.yml, it is implemented
as 'src/tools/ci/gha_setup_windows_debugger.ps1' script.

* [PATCH v13a 1/9] ci: Generate crashlogs on Windows
@ 2026-06-11 13:15  Andres Freund <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 216+ messages in thread

From: Andres Freund @ 2026-06-11 13:15 UTC (permalink / raw)

cdb.exe is configured to log all crashes to
"<workspace>\crashlogs\crashlog-<pid-in-hex>.txt". Upload logs step
already configured to collect these logs, so no change is needed on
there.

Logic is copied from where Postgres CI Windows images are generated [1].
Since this would be too long to include inline in pg-ci.yml, it is implemented
as 'src/tools/ci/gha_setup_windows_debugger.ps1' script.

* [PATCH v13a 1/9] ci: Generate crashlogs on Windows
@ 2026-06-11 13:15  Andres Freund <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 216+ messages in thread

From: Andres Freund @ 2026-06-11 13:15 UTC (permalink / raw)

cdb.exe is configured to log all crashes to
"<workspace>\crashlogs\crashlog-<pid-in-hex>.txt". Upload logs step
already configured to collect these logs, so no change is needed on
there.

Logic is copied from where Postgres CI Windows images are generated [1].
Since this would be too long to include inline in pg-ci.yml, it is implemented
as 'src/tools/ci/gha_setup_windows_debugger.ps1' script.

* [PATCH v13a 1/9] ci: Generate crashlogs on Windows
@ 2026-06-11 13:15  Andres Freund <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 216+ messages in thread

From: Andres Freund @ 2026-06-11 13:15 UTC (permalink / raw)

cdb.exe is configured to log all crashes to
"<workspace>\crashlogs\crashlog-<pid-in-hex>.txt". Upload logs step
already configured to collect these logs, so no change is needed on
there.

Logic is copied from where Postgres CI Windows images are generated [1].
Since this would be too long to include inline in pg-ci.yml, it is implemented
as 'src/tools/ci/gha_setup_windows_debugger.ps1' script.

* [PATCH v13a 1/9] ci: Generate crashlogs on Windows
@ 2026-06-11 13:15  Andres Freund <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 216+ messages in thread

From: Andres Freund @ 2026-06-11 13:15 UTC (permalink / raw)

cdb.exe is configured to log all crashes to
"<workspace>\crashlogs\crashlog-<pid-in-hex>.txt". Upload logs step
already configured to collect these logs, so no change is needed on
there.

Logic is copied from where Postgres CI Windows images are generated [1].
Since this would be too long to include inline in pg-ci.yml, it is implemented
as 'src/tools/ci/gha_setup_windows_debugger.ps1' script.

* [PATCH v13a 1/9] ci: Generate crashlogs on Windows
@ 2026-06-11 13:15  Andres Freund <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 216+ messages in thread

From: Andres Freund @ 2026-06-11 13:15 UTC (permalink / raw)

cdb.exe is configured to log all crashes to
"<workspace>\crashlogs\crashlog-<pid-in-hex>.txt". Upload logs step
already configured to collect these logs, so no change is needed on
there.

Logic is copied from where Postgres CI Windows images are generated [1].
Since this would be too long to include inline in pg-ci.yml, it is implemented
as 'src/tools/ci/gha_setup_windows_debugger.ps1' script.

* [PATCH v13a 1/9] ci: Generate crashlogs on Windows
@ 2026-06-11 13:15  Andres Freund <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 216+ messages in thread

From: Andres Freund @ 2026-06-11 13:15 UTC (permalink / raw)

cdb.exe is configured to log all crashes to
"<workspace>\crashlogs\crashlog-<pid-in-hex>.txt". Upload logs step
already configured to collect these logs, so no change is needed on
there.

Logic is copied from where Postgres CI Windows images are generated [1].
Since this would be too long to include inline in pg-ci.yml, it is implemented
as 'src/tools/ci/gha_setup_windows_debugger.ps1' script.

* [PATCH v13a 1/9] ci: Generate crashlogs on Windows
@ 2026-06-11 13:15  Andres Freund <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 216+ messages in thread

From: Andres Freund @ 2026-06-11 13:15 UTC (permalink / raw)

cdb.exe is configured to log all crashes to
"<workspace>\crashlogs\crashlog-<pid-in-hex>.txt". Upload logs step
already configured to collect these logs, so no change is needed on
there.

Logic is copied from where Postgres CI Windows images are generated [1].
Since this would be too long to include inline in pg-ci.yml, it is implemented
as 'src/tools/ci/gha_setup_windows_debugger.ps1' script.

* [PATCH v13a 1/9] ci: Generate crashlogs on Windows
@ 2026-06-11 13:15  Andres Freund <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 216+ messages in thread

From: Andres Freund @ 2026-06-11 13:15 UTC (permalink / raw)

cdb.exe is configured to log all crashes to
"<workspace>\crashlogs\crashlog-<pid-in-hex>.txt". Upload logs step
already configured to collect these logs, so no change is needed on
there.

Logic is copied from where Postgres CI Windows images are generated [1].
Since this would be too long to include inline in pg-ci.yml, it is implemented
as 'src/tools/ci/gha_setup_windows_debugger.ps1' script.

* [PATCH v13a 1/9] ci: Generate crashlogs on Windows
@ 2026-06-11 13:15  Andres Freund <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 216+ messages in thread

From: Andres Freund @ 2026-06-11 13:15 UTC (permalink / raw)

cdb.exe is configured to log all crashes to
"<workspace>\crashlogs\crashlog-<pid-in-hex>.txt". Upload logs step
already configured to collect these logs, so no change is needed on
there.

Logic is copied from where Postgres CI Windows images are generated [1].
Since this would be too long to include inline in pg-ci.yml, it is implemented
as 'src/tools/ci/gha_setup_windows_debugger.ps1' script.

* [PATCH v13a 1/9] ci: Generate crashlogs on Windows
@ 2026-06-11 13:15  Andres Freund <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 216+ messages in thread

From: Andres Freund @ 2026-06-11 13:15 UTC (permalink / raw)

cdb.exe is configured to log all crashes to
"<workspace>\crashlogs\crashlog-<pid-in-hex>.txt". Upload logs step
already configured to collect these logs, so no change is needed on
there.

Logic is copied from where Postgres CI Windows images are generated [1].
Since this would be too long to include inline in pg-ci.yml, it is implemented
as 'src/tools/ci/gha_setup_windows_debugger.ps1' script.

* [PATCH v13a 1/9] ci: Generate crashlogs on Windows
@ 2026-06-11 13:15  Andres Freund <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 216+ messages in thread

From: Andres Freund @ 2026-06-11 13:15 UTC (permalink / raw)

cdb.exe is configured to log all crashes to
"<workspace>\crashlogs\crashlog-<pid-in-hex>.txt". Upload logs step
already configured to collect these logs, so no change is needed on
there.

Logic is copied from where Postgres CI Windows images are generated [1].
Since this would be too long to include inline in pg-ci.yml, it is implemented
as 'src/tools/ci/gha_setup_windows_debugger.ps1' script.

* [PATCH v13a 1/9] ci: Generate crashlogs on Windows
@ 2026-06-11 13:15  Andres Freund <[email protected]>

From: Andres Freund @ 2026-06-11 13:15 UTC (permalink / raw)

cdb.exe is configured to log all crashes to
"<workspace>\crashlogs\crashlog-<pid-in-hex>.txt". Upload logs step
already configured to collect these logs, so no change is needed on
there.

Logic is copied from where Postgres CI Windows images are generated [1].
Since this would be too long to include inline in pg-ci.yml, it is implemented
as 'src/tools/ci/gha_setup_windows_debugger.ps1' script.

* [PATCH v13a 1/9] ci: Generate crashlogs on Windows
@ 2026-06-11 13:15  Andres Freund <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 216+ messages in thread

From: Andres Freund @ 2026-06-11 13:15 UTC (permalink / raw)

cdb.exe is configured to log all crashes to
"<workspace>\crashlogs\crashlog-<pid-in-hex>.txt". Upload logs step
already configured to collect these logs, so no change is needed on
there.

Logic is copied from where Postgres CI Windows images are generated [1].
Since this would be too long to include inline in pg-ci.yml, it is implemented
as 'src/tools/ci/gha_setup_windows_debugger.ps1' script.

* [PATCH v13a 1/9] ci: Generate crashlogs on Windows
@ 2026-06-11 13:15  Andres Freund <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 216+ messages in thread

From: Andres Freund @ 2026-06-11 13:15 UTC (permalink / raw)

cdb.exe is configured to log all crashes to
"<workspace>\crashlogs\crashlog-<pid-in-hex>.txt". Upload logs step
already configured to collect these logs, so no change is needed on
there.

Logic is copied from where Postgres CI Windows images are generated [1].
Since this would be too long to include inline in pg-ci.yml, it is implemented
as 'src/tools/ci/gha_setup_windows_debugger.ps1' script.

* [PATCH v13a 1/9] ci: Generate crashlogs on Windows
@ 2026-06-11 13:15  Andres Freund <[email protected]>

From: Andres Freund @ 2026-06-11 13:15 UTC (permalink / raw)

cdb.exe is configured to log all crashes to
"<workspace>\crashlogs\crashlog-<pid-in-hex>.txt". Upload logs step
already configured to collect these logs, so no change is needed on
there.

Logic is copied from where Postgres CI Windows images are generated [1].
Since this would be too long to include inline in pg-ci.yml, it is implemented
as 'src/tools/ci/gha_setup_windows_debugger.ps1' script.
