* [PATCH v1] Minimal fix for WAIT FOR ... MODE 'standby_flush'

The investigation into the negative test performance impact of 7e8aeb9e483
lead to discovering that there are a few issues with WAIT FOR.

This commit is just a minimal fix to prevent hangs in standby_flush mode, due
to WAIT FOR ... 'standby_flush' seeing a 0 LSN if a newly started walreceiver
does not receive any writes, because the stanby is already caught up.

There are several other issues and this is isn't necessarily the best fix. But
this way we get the hangs out of the way.

* [PATCH v1] Minimal fix for WAIT FOR ... MODE 'standby_flush'
@ 2026-04-07 13:11 Andres Freund <andres@anarazel.de>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 324+ messages in thread

From: Andres Freund @ 2026-04-07 13:11 UTC (permalink / raw)

The investigation into the negative test performance impact of 7e8aeb9e483
lead to discovering that there are a few issues with WAIT FOR.

This commit is just a minimal fix to prevent hangs in standby_flush mode, due
to WAIT FOR ... 'standby_flush' seeing a 0 LSN if a newly started walreceiver
does not receive any writes, because the stanby is already caught up.

There are several other issues and this is isn't necessarily the best fix. But
this way we get the hangs out of the way.

* [PATCH v1] Minimal fix for WAIT FOR ... MODE 'standby_flush'
@ 2026-04-07 13:11 Andres Freund <andres@anarazel.de>

From: Andres Freund @ 2026-04-07 13:11 UTC (permalink / raw)

The investigation into the negative test performance impact of 7e8aeb9e483
lead to discovering that there are a few issues with WAIT FOR.

This commit is just a minimal fix to prevent hangs in standby_flush mode, due
to WAIT FOR ... 'standby_flush' seeing a 0 LSN if a newly started walreceiver
does not receive any writes, because the stanby is already caught up.

There are several other issues and this is isn't necessarily the best fix. But
this way we get the hangs out of the way.

The investigation into the negative test performance impact of 7e8aeb9e483
lead to discovering that there are a few issues with WAIT FOR.

This commit is just a minimal fix to prevent hangs in standby_flush mode, due
to WAIT FOR ... 'standby_flush' seeing a 0 LSN if a newly started walreceiver
does not receive any writes, because the stanby is already caught up.

There are several other issues and this is isn't necessarily the best fix. But
this way we get the hangs out of the way.

* [PATCH v1] Minimal fix for WAIT FOR ... MODE 'standby_flush'
@ 2026-04-07 13:11 Andres Freund <andres@anarazel.de>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 324+ messages in thread

From: Andres Freund @ 2026-04-07 13:11 UTC (permalink / raw)

The investigation into the negative test performance impact of 7e8aeb9e483
lead to discovering that there are a few issues with WAIT FOR.

This commit is just a minimal fix to prevent hangs in standby_flush mode, due
to WAIT FOR ... 'standby_flush' seeing a 0 LSN if a newly started walreceiver
does not receive any writes, because the stanby is already caught up.

There are several other issues and this is isn't necessarily the best fix. But
this way we get the hangs out of the way.

* [PATCH v1] Minimal fix for WAIT FOR ... MODE 'standby_flush'
@ 2026-04-07 13:11 Andres Freund <andres@anarazel.de>

From: Andres Freund @ 2026-04-07 13:11 UTC (permalink / raw)

The investigation into the negative test performance impact of 7e8aeb9e483
lead to discovering that there are a few issues with WAIT FOR.

This commit is just a minimal fix to prevent hangs in standby_flush mode, due
to WAIT FOR ... 'standby_flush' seeing a 0 LSN if a newly started walreceiver
does not receive any writes, because the stanby is already caught up.

There are several other issues and this is isn't necessarily the best fix. But
this way we get the hangs out of the way.

The investigation into the negative test performance impact of 7e8aeb9e483
lead to discovering that there are a few issues with WAIT FOR.

This commit is just a minimal fix to prevent hangs in standby_flush mode, due
to WAIT FOR ... 'standby_flush' seeing a 0 LSN if a newly started walreceiver
does not receive any writes, because the stanby is already caught up.

There are several other issues and this is isn't necessarily the best fix. But
this way we get the hangs out of the way.

* [PATCH v1] Minimal fix for WAIT FOR ... MODE 'standby_flush'
@ 2026-04-07 13:11 Andres Freund <andres@anarazel.de>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 324+ messages in thread

From: Andres Freund @ 2026-04-07 13:11 UTC (permalink / raw)

The investigation into the negative test performance impact of 7e8aeb9e483
lead to discovering that there are a few issues with WAIT FOR.

This commit is just a minimal fix to prevent hangs in standby_flush mode, due
to WAIT FOR ... 'standby_flush' seeing a 0 LSN if a newly started walreceiver
does not receive any writes, because the stanby is already caught up.

There are several other issues and this is isn't necessarily the best fix. But
this way we get the hangs out of the way.

* [PATCH v1] Minimal fix for WAIT FOR ... MODE 'standby_flush'
@ 2026-04-07 13:11 Andres Freund <andres@anarazel.de>

From: Andres Freund @ 2026-04-07 13:11 UTC (permalink / raw)

The investigation into the negative test performance impact of 7e8aeb9e483
lead to discovering that there are a few issues with WAIT FOR.

This commit is just a minimal fix to prevent hangs in standby_flush mode, due
to WAIT FOR ... 'standby_flush' seeing a 0 LSN if a newly started walreceiver
does not receive any writes, because the stanby is already caught up.

There are several other issues and this is isn't necessarily the best fix. But
this way we get the hangs out of the way.

lead to discovering that there are a few issues with WAIT FOR.

This commit is just a minimal fix to prevent hangs in standby_flush mode, due
to WAIT FOR ... 'standby_flush' seeing a 0 LSN if a newly started walreceiver
does not receive any writes, because the stanby is already caught up.

There are several other issues and this is isn't necessarily the best fix. But
this way we get the hangs out of the way.

* [PATCH v1] Minimal fix for WAIT FOR ... MODE 'standby_flush'
@ 2026-04-07 13:11 Andres Freund <andres@anarazel.de>

From: Andres Freund @ 2026-04-07 13:11 UTC (permalink / raw)

The investigation into the negative test performance impact of 7e8aeb9e483
lead to discovering that there are a few issues with WAIT FOR.

This commit is just a minimal fix to prevent hangs in standby_flush mode, due
to WAIT FOR ... 'standby_flush' seeing a 0 LSN if a newly started walreceiver
does not receive any writes, because the stanby is already caught up.

There are several other issues and this is isn't necessarily the best fix. But
this way we get the hangs out of the way.

* [PATCH v1] Minimal fix for WAIT FOR ... MODE 'standby_flush'
@ 2026-04-07 13:11 Andres Freund <andres@anarazel.de>

From: Andres Freund @ 2026-04-07 13:11 UTC (permalink / raw)

The investigation into the negative test performance impact of 7e8aeb9e483
lead to discovering that there are a few issues with WAIT FOR.

This commit is just a minimal fix to prevent hangs in standby_flush mode, due
to WAIT FOR ... 'standby_flush' seeing a 0 LSN if a newly started walreceiver
does not receive any writes, because the stanby is already caught up.

There are several other issues and this is isn't necessarily the best fix. But
this way we get the hangs out of the way.

This commit is just a minimal fix to prevent hangs in standby_flush mode, due
to WAIT FOR ... 'standby_flush' seeing a 0 LSN if a newly started walreceiver
does not receive any writes, because the stanby is already caught up.

There are several other issues and this is isn't necessarily the best fix. But
this way we get the hangs out of the way.

* [PATCH v1] Minimal fix for WAIT FOR ... MODE 'standby_flush'
@ 2026-04-07 13:11 Andres Freund <andres@anarazel.de>

From: Andres Freund @ 2026-04-07 13:11 UTC (permalink / raw)

The investigation into the negative test performance impact of 7e8aeb9e483
lead to discovering that there are a few issues with WAIT FOR.

This commit is just a minimal fix to prevent hangs in standby_flush mode, due
to WAIT FOR ... 'standby_flush' seeing a 0 LSN if a newly started walreceiver
does not receive any writes, because the stanby is already caught up.

There are several other issues and this is isn't necessarily the best fix. But
this way we get the hangs out of the way.

* [PATCH v1] Minimal fix for WAIT FOR ... MODE 'standby_flush'
@ 2026-04-07 13:11 Andres Freund <andres@anarazel.de>

From: Andres Freund @ 2026-04-07 13:11 UTC (permalink / raw)

The investigation into the negative test performance impact of 7e8aeb9e483
lead to discovering that there are a few issues with WAIT FOR.

This commit is just a minimal fix to prevent hangs in standby_flush mode, due
to WAIT FOR ... 'standby_flush' seeing a 0 LSN if a newly started walreceiver
does not receive any writes, because the stanby is already caught up.

There are several other issues and this is isn't necessarily the best fix. But
this way we get the hangs out of the way.

* [PATCH v1] Minimal fix for WAIT FOR ... MODE 'standby_flush'
@ 2026-04-07 13:11 Andres Freund <andres@anarazel.de>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 324+ messages in thread

From: Andres Freund @ 2026-04-07 13:11 UTC (permalink / raw)

The investigation into the negative test performance impact of 7e8aeb9e483
lead to discovering that there are a few issues with WAIT FOR.

This commit is just a minimal fix to prevent hangs in standby_flush mode, due
to WAIT FOR ... 'standby_flush' seeing a 0 LSN if a newly started walreceiver
does not receive any writes, because the stanby is already caught up.

There are several other issues and this is isn't necessarily the best fix. But
this way we get the hangs out of the way.

* [PATCH v1] Minimal fix for WAIT FOR ... MODE 'standby_flush'
@ 2026-04-07 13:11 Andres Freund <andres@anarazel.de>

From: Andres Freund @ 2026-04-07 13:11 UTC (permalink / raw)

The investigation into the negative test performance impact of 7e8aeb9e483
lead to discovering that there are a few issues with WAIT FOR.

This commit is just a minimal fix to prevent hangs in standby_flush mode, due
to WAIT FOR ... 'standby_flush' seeing a 0 LSN if a newly started walreceiver
does not receive any writes, because the stanby is already caught up.

There are several other issues and this is isn't necessarily the best fix. But
this way we get the hangs out of the way.

* [PATCH v1] Minimal fix for WAIT FOR ... MODE 'standby_flush'
@ 2026-04-07 13:11 Andres Freund <andres@anarazel.de>

The investigation into the negative test performance impact of 7e8aeb9e483
lead to discovering that there are a few issues with WAIT FOR.

This commit is just a minimal fix to prevent hangs in standby_flush mode, due
to WAIT FOR ... 'standby_flush' seeing a 0 LSN if a newly started walreceiver
does not receive any writes, because the stanby is already caught up.

There are several other issues and this is isn't necessarily the best fix. But
this way we get the hangs out of the way.

* [PATCH v1] Minimal fix for WAIT FOR ... MODE 'standby_flush'
@ 2026-04-07 13:11 Andres Freund <andres@anarazel.de>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 324+ messages in thread

From: Andres Freund @ 2026-04-07 13:11 UTC (permalink / raw)

The investigation into the negative test performance impact of 7e8aeb9e483
lead to discovering that there are a few issues with WAIT FOR.

This commit is just a minimal fix to prevent hangs in standby_flush mode, due
to WAIT FOR ... 'standby_flush' seeing a 0 LSN if a newly started walreceiver
does not receive any writes, because the stanby is already caught up.

There are several other issues and this is isn't necessarily the best fix. But
this way we get the hangs out of the way.

* [PATCH v1] Minimal fix for WAIT FOR ... MODE 'standby_flush'
@ 2026-04-07 13:11 Andres Freund <andres@anarazel.de>

From: Andres Freund @ 2026-04-07 13:11 UTC (permalink / raw)

The investigation into the negative test performance impact of 7e8aeb9e483
lead to discovering that there are a few issues with WAIT FOR.

This commit is just a minimal fix to prevent hangs in standby_flush mode, due
to WAIT FOR ... 'standby_flush' seeing a 0 LSN if a newly started walreceiver
does not receive any writes, because the stanby is already caught up.

There are several other issues and this is isn't necessarily the best fix. But
this way we get the hangs out of the way.

The investigation into the negative test performance impact of 7e8aeb9e483
lead to discovering that there are a few issues with WAIT FOR.

This commit is just a minimal fix to prevent hangs in standby_flush mode, due
to WAIT FOR ... 'standby_flush' seeing a 0 LSN if a newly started walreceiver
does not receive any writes, because the stanby is already caught up.

There are several other issues and this is isn't necessarily the best fix. But
this way we get the hangs out of the way.

* [PATCH v1] Minimal fix for WAIT FOR ... MODE 'standby_flush'
@ 2026-04-07 13:11 Andres Freund <andres@anarazel.de>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 324+ messages in thread

From: Andres Freund @ 2026-04-07 13:11 UTC (permalink / raw)

The investigation into the negative test performance impact of 7e8aeb9e483
lead to discovering that there are a few issues with WAIT FOR.

This commit is just a minimal fix to prevent hangs in standby_flush mode, due
to WAIT FOR ... 'standby_flush' seeing a 0 LSN if a newly started walreceiver
does not receive any writes, because the stanby is already caught up.

There are several other issues and this is isn't necessarily the best fix. But
this way we get the hangs out of the way.

* [PATCH v1] Minimal fix for WAIT FOR ... MODE 'standby_flush'
@ 2026-04-07 13:11 Andres Freund <andres@anarazel.de>

From: Andres Freund @ 2026-04-07 13:11 UTC (permalink / raw)

The investigation into the negative test performance impact of 7e8aeb9e483
lead to discovering that there are a few issues with WAIT FOR.

This commit is just a minimal fix to prevent hangs in standby_flush mode, due
to WAIT FOR ... 'standby_flush' seeing a 0 LSN if a newly started walreceiver
does not receive any writes, because the stanby is already caught up.

There are several other issues and this is isn't necessarily the best fix. But
this way we get the hangs out of the way.

The investigation into the negative test performance impact of 7e8aeb9e483
lead to discovering that there are a few issues with WAIT FOR.

This commit is just a minimal fix to prevent hangs in standby_flush mode, due
to WAIT FOR ... 'standby_flush' seeing a 0 LSN if a newly started walreceiver
does not receive any writes, because the stanby is already caught up.

There are several other issues and this is isn't necessarily the best fix. But
this way we get the hangs out of the way.

* [PATCH v1] Minimal fix for WAIT FOR ... MODE 'standby_flush'
@ 2026-04-07 13:11 Andres Freund <andres@anarazel.de>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 324+ messages in thread

From: Andres Freund @ 2026-04-07 13:11 UTC (permalink / raw)

The investigation into the negative test performance impact of 7e8aeb9e483
lead to discovering that there are a few issues with WAIT FOR.

This commit is just a minimal fix to prevent hangs in standby_flush mode, due
to WAIT FOR ... 'standby_flush' seeing a 0 LSN if a newly started walreceiver
does not receive any writes, because the stanby is already caught up.

There are several other issues and this is isn't necessarily the best fix. But
this way we get the hangs out of the way.

* [PATCH v1] Minimal fix for WAIT FOR ... MODE 'standby_flush'
@ 2026-04-07 13:11 Andres Freund <andres@anarazel.de>

From: Andres Freund @ 2026-04-07 13:11 UTC (permalink / raw)

The investigation into the negative test performance impact of 7e8aeb9e483
lead to discovering that there are a few issues with WAIT FOR.

This commit is just a minimal fix to prevent hangs in standby_flush mode, due
to WAIT FOR ... 'standby_flush' seeing a 0 LSN if a newly started walreceiver
does not receive any writes, because the stanby is already caught up.

There are several other issues and this is isn't necessarily the best fix. But
this way we get the hangs out of the way.

lead to discovering that there are a few issues with WAIT FOR.

This commit is just a minimal fix to prevent hangs in standby_flush mode, due
to WAIT FOR ... 'standby_flush' seeing a 0 LSN if a newly started walreceiver
does not receive any writes, because the stanby is already caught up.

There are several other issues and this is isn't necessarily the best fix. But
this way we get the hangs out of the way.

* [PATCH v1] Minimal fix for WAIT FOR ... MODE 'standby_flush'
@ 2026-04-07 13:11 Andres Freund <andres@anarazel.de>

From: Andres Freund @ 2026-04-07 13:11 UTC (permalink / raw)

The investigation into the negative test performance impact of 7e8aeb9e483
lead to discovering that there are a few issues with WAIT FOR.

This commit is just a minimal fix to prevent hangs in standby_flush mode, due
to WAIT FOR ... 'standby_flush' seeing a 0 LSN if a newly started walreceiver
does not receive any writes, because the stanby is already caught up.

There are several other issues and this is isn't necessarily the best fix. But
this way we get the hangs out of the way.

* [PATCH v1] Minimal fix for WAIT FOR ... MODE 'standby_flush'
@ 2026-04-07 13:11 Andres Freund <andres@anarazel.de>

From: Andres Freund @ 2026-04-07 13:11 UTC (permalink / raw)

The investigation into the negative test performance impact of 7e8aeb9e483
lead to discovering that there are a few issues with WAIT FOR.

This commit is just a minimal fix to prevent hangs in standby_flush mode, due
to WAIT FOR ... 'standby_flush' seeing a 0 LSN if a newly started walreceiver
does not receive any writes, because the stanby is already caught up.

There are several other issues and this is isn't necessarily the best fix. But
this way we get the hangs out of the way.

This commit is just a minimal fix to prevent hangs in standby_flush mode, due
to WAIT FOR ... 'standby_flush' seeing a 0 LSN if a newly started walreceiver
does not receive any writes, because the stanby is already caught up.

There are several other issues and this is isn't necessarily the best fix. But
this way we get the hangs out of the way.

* [PATCH v1] Minimal fix for WAIT FOR ... MODE 'standby_flush'
@ 2026-04-07 13:11 Andres Freund <andres@anarazel.de>

From: Andres Freund @ 2026-04-07 13:11 UTC (permalink / raw)

The investigation into the negative test performance impact of 7e8aeb9e483
lead to discovering that there are a few issues with WAIT FOR.

This commit is just a minimal fix to prevent hangs in standby_flush mode, due
to WAIT FOR ... 'standby_flush' seeing a 0 LSN if a newly started walreceiver
does not receive any writes, because the stanby is already caught up.

There are several other issues and this is isn't necessarily the best fix. But
this way we get the hangs out of the way.

* [PATCH v1] Minimal fix for WAIT FOR ... MODE 'standby_flush'
@ 2026-04-07 13:11 Andres Freund <andres@anarazel.de>

From: Andres Freund @ 2026-04-07 13:11 UTC (permalink / raw)

The investigation into the negative test performance impact of 7e8aeb9e483
lead to discovering that there are a few issues with WAIT FOR.

This commit is just a minimal fix to prevent hangs in standby_flush mode, due
to WAIT FOR ... 'standby_flush' seeing a 0 LSN if a newly started walreceiver
does not receive any writes, because the stanby is already caught up.

There are several other issues and this is isn't necessarily the best fix. But
this way we get the hangs out of the way.

* [PATCH v1] Minimal fix for WAIT FOR ... MODE 'standby_flush'
@ 2026-04-07 13:11 Andres Freund <andres@anarazel.de>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 324+ messages in thread

From: Andres Freund @ 2026-04-07 13:11 UTC (permalink / raw)

The investigation into the negative test performance impact of 7e8aeb9e483
lead to discovering that there are a few issues with WAIT FOR.

This commit is just a minimal fix to prevent hangs in standby_flush mode, due
to WAIT FOR ... 'standby_flush' seeing a 0 LSN if a newly started walreceiver
does not receive any writes, because the stanby is already caught up.

There are several other issues and this is isn't necessarily the best fix. But
this way we get the hangs out of the way.

* [PATCH v1] Minimal fix for WAIT FOR ... MODE 'standby_flush'
@ 2026-04-07 13:11 Andres Freund <andres@anarazel.de>

From: Andres Freund @ 2026-04-07 13:11 UTC (permalink / raw)

The investigation into the negative test performance impact of 7e8aeb9e483
lead to discovering that there are a few issues with WAIT FOR.

This commit is just a minimal fix to prevent hangs in standby_flush mode, due
to WAIT FOR ... 'standby_flush' seeing a 0 LSN if a newly started walreceiver
does not receive any writes, because the stanby is already caught up.

There are several other issues and this is isn't necessarily the best fix. But
this way we get the hangs out of the way.

* [PATCH v1] Minimal fix for WAIT FOR ... MODE 'standby_flush'

The investigation into the negative test performance impact of 7e8aeb9e483
lead to discovering that there are a few issues with WAIT FOR.

This commit is just a minimal fix to prevent hangs in standby_flush mode, due
to WAIT FOR ... 'standby_flush' seeing a 0 LSN if a newly started walreceiver
does not receive any writes, because the stanby is already caught up.

There are several other issues and this is isn't necessarily the best fix. But
this way we get the hangs out of the way.
