Is this bugfix related to the following?

        appendPQExpBuffer(upgrade_query,
-                                         "SELECT c.reltoastrelid, t.reltoastidxid "
+                                         "SELECT c.reltoastrelid, t.indexrelid "
                                          "FROM pg_catalog.pg_class c LEFT JOIN "
-                                         "pg_catalog.pg_class t ON (c.reltoastrelid = t.oid) "
-                                         "WHERE c.oid = '%u'::pg_catalog.oid;",
+                                         "pg_catalog.pg_index t ON (c.reltoastrelid = t.indrelid) "
+                                         "WHERE c.oid = '%u'::pg_catalog.oid AND t.indisvalid "
+                                         "LIMIT 1",
Yes.
 
Don't indisready and indislive need to be checked?
An index is valid if it is already ready and line. We could add such check for safely but I don't think it is necessary.

Why is LIMIT 1 required? The toast table can have more than one toast indexes?
It cannot have more than one VALID index, so yes as long as a check on indisvalid is here there is no need to worry about a LIMIT condition. I only thought of that as a safeguard. The same thing applies to the addition of a condition based on indislive and indisready.
