In a database that's not yet reached consistency, it's possible that some segments of a relation are not full-size but are not the last ones either. Because of the way smgrnblocks() works, asking for a new page with P_NEW will fill in the last not-full-size segment --- and if that makes it full size, the apparent EOF of the relation will increase by more than one page, so that the next P_NEW request will yield a page past the next consecutive one. This breaks the relation-extension logic in XLogReadBufferExtended, possibly allowing a page update to be applied to some page far past where it was intended to go. This appears to be the explanation for reports of table bloat on replication slaves compared to their masters, and probably explains some corrupted-slave reports as well. Fix the loop to check the page number it actually got, rather than merely Assert()'ing that dead reckoning got it to the desired place. AFAICT, there are no other places that make assumptions about exactly which page they'll get from P_NEW. Problem identified by Greg Stark, though this is not the same as his proposed patch. It's been like this for a long time, so back-patch to all supported branches. |

PostgreSQL Database Management System ===================================== This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL database management system. PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types and functions. This distribution also contains C language bindings. PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here: http://www.postgresql.org/download See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install PostgreSQL. That file also lists supported operating systems and hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL system. Copyright and license information can be found in the file COPYRIGHT. A comprehensive documentation set is included in this distribution; it can be read as described in the installation instructions. The latest version of this software may be obtained at http://www.postgresql.org/download/. For more information look at our web site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
