It should make the copying more efficient. Besides that, buffer access
strategy is involved this way.

This diff reverts the changes done in previous parts of the series to
reform_and_rewrite_tuple() and introduces a separate function
heap_insert_for_repack().

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38 Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38 Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 199+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38 Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 199+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38 Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38 Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 199+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38 Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 199+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38 Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38 Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 199+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38 Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 199+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38 Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38 Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 199+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38 Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 199+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38 Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38 Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 199+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38 Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 199+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38 Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38 Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 199+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38 Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 199+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38 Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38 Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 199+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38 Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 199+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38 Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38 Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 199+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38 Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 199+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38 Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38 Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 199+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38 Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 199+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38 Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38 Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 199+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38 Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 199+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38 Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38 Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 199+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38 Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 199+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38 Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38 Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 199+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38 Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 199+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38 Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38 Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 199+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38 Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 199+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38 Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38 Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 199+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38 Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 199+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38 Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38 Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 199+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38 Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 199+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38 Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38 Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 199+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38 Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 199+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38 Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38 Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 199+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38 Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 199+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38 Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38 Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 199+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38 Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 199+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38 Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38 Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 199+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38 Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 199+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38 Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38 Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 199+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.

* [PATCH 1/2] REPACK: do not require the user to have REPLICATION
@ 2026-04-20 09:38 Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 199+ messages in thread

From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-04-20 09:38 UTC (permalink / raw)

Although REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) uses replication slots, there is no
concern that the slot will leak data of other users, because the
MAINTAIN privilege on the table is required anyway; requiring
REPLICATION is user-unfriendly without providing any actual protection.

A related aspect is that the REPLICATION attribute is not needed to
prevent REPACK from stealing slots from logical replication, since
commit e76d8c749c31 made REPACK use a separate pool of replication
slots.

Because there are now successful concurrent repack runs in the
regression tests, we're forced to run test_plan_advice under
wal_level=replica.
