* [PATCH v18] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary
@ 2020-02-28 06:52 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 62+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-02-28 06:52 UTC (permalink / raw)

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is
happening. Actually if recovery meets a record with length = 0, that
usually means it finished applying all available WAL records.

Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL". Instead, raise
the error level for other kind of WAL failure to WARNING.

* [PATCH v4] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary
@ 2020-02-28 06:52 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-02-28 06:52 UTC (permalink / raw)

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is happening.
Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL".

* [PATCH v11] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary
@ 2020-02-28 06:52 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-02-28 06:52 UTC (permalink / raw)

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is
happening. Actually if recovery meets a record with length = 0, that
usually means it finished applying all available WAL records.

Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL". Instead, raise
the error level for other kind of WAL failure to WARNING.

* [PATCH v12] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary
@ 2020-02-28 06:52 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is
happening. Actually if recovery meets a record with length = 0, that
usually means it finished applying all available WAL records.

Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL". Instead, raise
the error level for other kind of WAL failure to WARNING.

* [PATCH v16] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary
@ 2020-02-28 06:52 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 62+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-02-28 06:52 UTC (permalink / raw)

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is
happening. Actually if recovery meets a record with length = 0, that
usually means it finished applying all available WAL records.

Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL". Instead, raise
the error level for other kind of WAL failure to WARNING.

* [PATCH v5] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary
@ 2020-02-28 06:52 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 62+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-02-28 06:52 UTC (permalink / raw)

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is
happening. Actually if recovery meets a record with length = 0, that
usually means it finished applying all available WAL records.

Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL". Instead raise
the error level for other kind of WAL failure to WARNING.

* [PATCH v9] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary
@ 2020-02-28 06:52 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 62+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-02-28 06:52 UTC (permalink / raw)

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is
happening. Actually if recovery meets a record with length = 0, that
usually means it finished applying all available WAL records.

Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL". Instead, raise
the error level for other kind of WAL failure to WARNING.

* [PATCH v11] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary
@ 2020-02-28 06:52 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 62+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-02-28 06:52 UTC (permalink / raw)

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is
happening. Actually if recovery meets a record with length = 0, that
usually means it finished applying all available WAL records.

Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL". Instead, raise
the error level for other kind of WAL failure to WARNING.

* [PATCH v4] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary
@ 2020-02-28 06:52 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-02-28 06:52 UTC (permalink / raw)

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is happening.
Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL".

* [PATCH v4] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-02-28 06:52 UTC (permalink / raw)

"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is happening.
Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL".

* [PATCH v10] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary
@ 2020-02-28 06:52 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 62+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-02-28 06:52 UTC (permalink / raw)

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is
happening. Actually if recovery meets a record with length = 0, that
usually means it finished applying all available WAL records.

Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL". Instead, raise
the error level for other kind of WAL failure to WARNING.

* [PATCH v13] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary
@ 2020-02-28 06:52 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-02-28 06:52 UTC (permalink / raw)

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is
happening. Actually if recovery meets a record with length = 0, that
usually means it finished applying all available WAL records.

Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL". Instead, raise
the error level for other kind of WAL failure to WARNING.

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is happening.
Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL".

* [PATCH v2] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-02-28 06:52 UTC (permalink / raw)

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is happening.
Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL".

* [PATCH v4] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary

"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is happening.
Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL".

* [PATCH v4] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is happening.
Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL".

* [PATCH v14] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is
happening. Actually if recovery meets a record with length = 0, that
usually means it finished applying all available WAL records.

Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL". Instead, raise
the error level for other kind of WAL failure to WARNING.

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is happening.
Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL".

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is
happening. Actually if recovery meets a record with length = 0, that
usually means it finished applying all available WAL records.

Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL". Instead, raise
the error level for other kind of WAL failure to WARNING.

* [PATCH v4] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary
@ 2020-02-28 06:52 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-02-28 06:52 UTC (permalink / raw)

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is happening.
Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL".

Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL".

* [PATCH v15] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary
@ 2020-02-28 06:52 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 62+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-02-28 06:52 UTC (permalink / raw)

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is
happening. Actually if recovery meets a record with length = 0, that
usually means it finished applying all available WAL records.

Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL". Instead, raise
the error level for other kind of WAL failure to WARNING.

* [PATCH v17] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary
@ 2020-02-28 06:52 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 62+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-02-28 06:52 UTC (permalink / raw)

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is
happening. Actually if recovery meets a record with length = 0, that
usually means it finished applying all available WAL records.

Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL". Instead, raise
the error level for other kind of WAL failure to WARNING.

* [PATCH v7] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary
@ 2020-02-28 06:52 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-02-28 06:52 UTC (permalink / raw)

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is
happening. Actually if recovery meets a record with length = 0, that
usually means it finished applying all available WAL records.

Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL". Instead, raise
the error level for other kind of WAL failure to WARNING.

Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL".

* [PATCH v6] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary
@ 2020-02-28 06:52 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is
happening. Actually if recovery meets a record with length = 0, that
usually means it finished applying all available WAL records.

Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL". Instead raise
the error level for other kind of WAL failure to WARNING.

* [PATCH v4] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary
@ 2020-02-28 06:52 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-02-28 06:52 UTC (permalink / raw)

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is happening.
Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL".

* [PATCH] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary
@ 2022-07-07 02:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 62+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2022-07-07 02:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is
happening. Actually if recovery meets a record with length = 0, that
usually means it finished applying all available WAL records.

Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL". Instead, raise
the error level for other kind of WAL failure to WARNING.

* [PATCH v19] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary
@ 2022-07-07 02:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 62+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2022-07-07 02:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is
happening. Actually if recovery meets a record with length = 0, that
usually means it finished applying all available WAL records.

Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL". Instead, raise
the error level for other kind of WAL failure to WARNING.

* [PATCH v21] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary
@ 2022-07-07 02:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 62+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2022-07-07 02:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is
happening. Actually if recovery meets a record with length = 0, that
usually means it finished applying all available WAL records.

Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL". Instead, raise
the error level for other kind of WAL failure to WARNING.

* [PATCH] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary
@ 2022-07-07 02:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 62+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2022-07-07 02:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is
happening. Actually if recovery meets a record with length = 0, that
usually means it finished applying all available WAL records.

Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL". Instead, raise
the error level for other kind of WAL failure to WARNING.

* [PATCH] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary
@ 2022-07-07 02:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 62+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2022-07-07 02:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is
happening. Actually if recovery meets a record with length = 0, that
usually means it finished applying all available WAL records.

Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL". Instead, raise
the error level for other kind of WAL failure to WARNING.

* [PATCH v22] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary
@ 2022-11-15 04:41 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 62+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2022-11-15 04:41 UTC (permalink / raw)

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is
happening. Actually if recovery meets a record with length = 0, that
usually means it finished applying all available WAL records.

Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL". Instead, raise
the error level for other kind of WAL failure to WARNING.

* [PATCH] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary
@ 2022-11-15 04:41 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 62+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2022-11-15 04:41 UTC (permalink / raw)

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is
happening. Actually if recovery meets a record with length = 0, that
usually means it finished applying all available WAL records.

Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL". Instead, raise
the error level for other kind of WAL failure to WARNING.

* [PATCH v24] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary
@ 2022-11-30 02:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 62+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2022-11-30 02:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is
happening. Actually if recovery meets a record with length = 0, that
usually means it finished applying all available WAL records.

Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL". Instead, raise
the error level for other kind of WAL failure to WARNING.  To make
sure that the detection is correct, this patch checks if all trailing
bytes in the same page are zeroed in that case.

* [PATCH v23] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary
@ 2022-11-30 02:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 62+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2022-11-30 02:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is
happening. Actually if recovery meets a record with length = 0, that
usually means it finished applying all available WAL records.

Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL". Instead, raise
the error level for other kind of WAL failure to WARNING.

* [PATCH v25] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary
@ 2023-03-07 05:55 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 62+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2023-03-07 05:55 UTC (permalink / raw)

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is
happening. Actually if recovery meets a record with length = 0, that
usually means it finished applying all available WAL records.

Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL". Instead, raise
the error level for other kind of WAL failure to WARNING.  To make
sure that the detection is correct, this patch checks if all trailing
bytes in the same page are zeroed in that case.

Hi,

When multiple subscribers connect to different publisher servers,
it can be useful to set different wal_receiver_timeout values for
each connection to better detect failures. However, this isn't
currently possible, which limits flexibility in managing subscriptions.

To address this, I'd like to propose making wal_receiver_timeout
configurable per subscription.

One approach is to add wal_receiver_timeout as a parameter to
CREATE SUBSCRIPTION command, storing it in pg_subscription
so each logical replication worker can use its specific value.

Another option is to change the wal_receiver_timeout's GUC context
from PGC_SIGHUP to PGC_USERSET. This would allow setting different
values via ALTER ROLE SET command for each subscription owner -
effectively enabling per-subscription configuration. Since this
approach is simpler and likely sufficient, I'd prefer starting with this.
Thought?

BTW, this could be extended in the future to other GUCs used by
logical replication workers, such as wal_retrieve_retry_interval.

Both ways LGTM,for starters we can go with changing GUC's context.

The GUC wal_receiver_interval is also used for physical replication
and logical launcher, so won't making it userset can impact those
cases as well, but maybe that is okay. However, for the specific case
you are worried about, isn't it better to make it a subscription
option as that won't have a chance to impact any other cases?

IIUC, the reason you are worried is because different publishers can
have different network latencies with subscribers, so they may want
different timing for feedback/keepalive messages.

The advantage of Fujii-san's proposal is that it is very simple to
implement. A subscription option would indeed be better, but it would
also be considerably more complex. Why not start simple and if someone
wants to do the work to add something more complicated, that is fine?

Logically, adding that as an option of CREATE SUBSCRIPTION would just
be a duplication of what a connection strings are already able to do
with "options='-c foo=fooval'", isn't it?

It seems to me that the issue of downgrading wal_receiver_timeout to
become user-settable is if we're OK to allow non-superusers play with
it in the code path where it's used currently.  Knowing that physical
WAL receivers are only spawned in a controlled manner by the startup
process, this does not sound like an issue.

How about logical WAL receivers, though?  These are spawned by
pgoutput, but allowing wal_receiver_timeout could allow one to load
the value they want in a non-superuser context, especially in the 
context of function calls (for example in the context of an index,
constraint validation, etc.).  So it seems to me that the real
question is deciding if we'd be OK with that.  I think that we're
actually OK here because this GUC is only used in the main apply
loops, where the GUC should be reset to its original value once we're
done applying a single logical change.

Although the value is set in the session that creates the
subscription, it will not be used by the apply worker because the
launcher process, which starts the apply worker after subscription
creation, is unaware of session-specific settings.

If we set the wal_receiver_timeout configuration using ALTER ROLE for
the subscription owner's role, the apply worker will start with that
value. However, any changes made via ALTER ROLE ... SET
wal_receiver_timeout will not take effect for an already running apply
worker unless the subscription is disabled and re-enabled. In
contrast, this is handled automatically during CREATE SUBSCRIPTION,
where parameter changes are detected.

Vignesh

I think there is a difference in the point that Vignesh made below;
the worker can detect wal_receiver_timeout change and restart.

Right. But given changing wal_receiver_timeout doesn't happen
frequently in practice I guess this would not be a big downside of the
proposed idea.

Yes, this is one of the limitations of the user-settable wal_receiver_timeout
approach. If we want to change the timeout used by the apply worker without
restarting it, storing the value in pg_subscription (similar to how
synchronous_commit is handled) would be a better solution.

In that case, for example, we could set the default value of
pg_subscription.wal_receiver_timeout to -1, meaning the apply worker should
use the global wal_receiver_timeout from postgresql.conf. If the value is 0
or higher, the apply worker would use the value stored in pg_subscription.


On further thought, another downside of the user-settable approach is that
it doesn't work for parameters like wal_retrieve_retry_interval, which is
used by the logical replication launcher not the apply worker. So if we
want to support per-subscription control for non-apply workers, storing
the settings in pg_subscription might be more appropriate.

Yeah, that could be an option, but one might not want to keep such
variables different for each subscription. Do you think one would like
to prefer specifying variables that only apply to the subscriber-node
in a way other than GUC? I always have this question whenever I see
GUCs like max_sync_workers_per_subscription, which are specific to
only subscriber nodes.

OK, I've implemented two patches:

   - 0001 makes the wal_receiver_timeout GUC user-settable.
   - 0002 adds support for setting wal_receiver_timeout per subscription.
     It depends on the changes in 0001.

With both patches applied, wal_receiver_timeout can be set per role or
per database using ALTER ROLE or ALTER DATABASE (from 0001), and also
per subscription using CREATE SUBSCRIPTION or ALTER SUBSCRIPTION (from 0002).
The per-subscription value is stored in pg_subscription.subwalrcvtimeout,
and it overrides the global setting of wal_receiver_timeout for that
subscription's apply worker. The default is -1, meaning the global setting
(from server config, command line, role, or database) is used.


I'll add this to the next CommitFest.

I like still using the xxx_per_subscription GUC as the default,
and also allowing it to be overridden per subscription. This seems
intuitive for some users and adds useful flexibility.

Subject: [PATCH v1 1/2] Make GUC wal_receiver_timeout user-settable.

When multiple subscribers connect to different publisher servers,
it can be useful to set different wal_receiver_timeout values for
each connection to better detect failures. However, previously
this wasn't possible, which limited flexibility in managing subscriptions.

This commit changes wal_receiver_timeout to be user-settable,
allowing different values to be assigned using ALTER ROLE SET for
each subscription owner. This effectively enables per-subscription
configuration.

Subject: [PATCH v1 2/2] Add per-subscription wal_receiver_timeout setting.
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

This commit allows setting wal_receiver_timeout per subscription
using the CREATE SUBSCRIPTION and ALTER SUBSCRIPTION commands.
The value is stored in the subwalrcvtimeout column of the pg_subscription
catalog.

When set, this value overrides the global wal_receiver_timeout for
the subscription’s apply worker. The default is -1, which means the
global setting (from the server configuration, command line, role,
or database) remains in effect.

This feature is useful for configuring different timeout values for
each subscription, especially when connecting to multiple publisher
servers, to improve failure detection.

Bump catalog version.

Subject: [PATCH v1 1/2] Make GUC wal_receiver_timeout user-settable.

When multiple subscribers connect to different publisher servers,
it can be useful to set different wal_receiver_timeout values for
each connection to better detect failures. However, previously
this wasn't possible, which limited flexibility in managing subscriptions.

This commit changes wal_receiver_timeout to be user-settable,
allowing different values to be assigned using ALTER ROLE SET for
each subscription owner. This effectively enables per-subscription
configuration.

Subject: [PATCH v1 2/2] Add per-subscription wal_receiver_timeout setting.
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

This commit allows setting wal_receiver_timeout per subscription
using the CREATE SUBSCRIPTION and ALTER SUBSCRIPTION commands.
The value is stored in the subwalrcvtimeout column of the pg_subscription
catalog.

When set, this value overrides the global wal_receiver_timeout for
the subscription’s apply worker. The default is -1, which means the
global setting (from the server configuration, command line, role,
or database) remains in effect.

This feature is useful for configuring different timeout values for
each subscription, especially when connecting to multiple publisher
servers, to improve failure detection.

Bump catalog version.

* [PATCH v2] Fix duplicate arbiter detection during REINDEX CONCURRENTLY on partitions
@ 2026-01-25 17:01 Mikhail Nikalayeu <[email protected]>

From: Mikhail Nikalayeu @ 2026-01-25 17:01 UTC (permalink / raw)

Commit 90eae926a fixed ON CONFLICT handling during REINDEX CONCURRENTLY
on partitioned tables by treating unparented indexes as potential
arbiters.  However, there's a remaining race condition: when pg_inherits
records are swapped between consecutive calls to get_partition_ancestors(),
two different child indexes can appear to have the same parent, causing
duplicate entries in the arbiter list and triggering "invalid arbiter
index list" errors.

Note that this is not a new problem introduced by 90eae926a.  The same
error could occur before that commit in a slightly different scenario:
an index is selected during planning, then index_concurrently_swap
commits, and a subsequent call to get_partition_ancestors() uses a new
catalog snapshot that sees zero ancestors for that index.

Fix by tracking which parent indexes have already been processed.  If a
subsequent call to get_partition_ancestors() returns a parent we've
already seen, treat that index as unparented instead, allowing it to be
matched via IsIndexCompatibleAsArbiter() like other concurrent reindex
scenarios.
