Segfault on postgresql 12.3 - Mailing list pgsql-admin

Hi all,

I just had strange behavior on my postgresql instance, with postgresql 
auto restart

Looking for logs, I've found a segfault in kern.log

[12:24:09]root@db12:~# cat /var/log/kern.log
2020-08-21T12:00:01.436378+02:00 db12 kernel: postgres[177990]: segfault 
at 0 ip 00005636d2d844f1 sp 00007fff4fa69910 error 4 in 
postgres[5636d2cb7000+775000]

I've also enabled core dump, file output is :

[12:24:13]root@db12:~# file /data/postgresql/12/main/core
/data/postgresql/12/main/core: ELF 64-bit LSB core file x86-64, version 
1 (SYSV), SVR4-style, from 'postgres: 12/main: supervision neteven2

114, effective gid: 114, execfn: '/usr/lib/postgresql/12/bin/postgres', 
platform: 'x86_64'


In logs , I have these messages

(many times until full restart)


I'm on 12.3 version, on a dedicated host on prem.
