Thread: Assertion failure on HEAD (or at least git copy of it)
Checking out HEAD from the git repository I see an assertion
failure. Steps to reproduce:
make distclean
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/pgsql-serializable \ --enable-debug --enable-depend --enable-cassert
make check
sudo make install
cd contrib/
make
sudo make install
cd ../
rm -fr /var/pgsql/data/serializable/*
initdb /var/pgsql/data/serializable
/usr/local/pgsql-serializable/pg_ctl \ -D /var/pgsql/data/serializable -l logfile start
make installcheck
# wait 30 to 60 seconds
/usr/local/pgsql-serializable/pg_ctl \ -D /var/pgsql/data/serializable -m immediate stop
/usr/local/pgsql-serializable/pg_ctl \ -D /var/pgsql/data/serializable -l logfile start
The postmaster is not running. The tail of logfile is:
LOG: wait_for_stats delayed 0.013267 seconds
STATEMENT: SELECT wait_for_stats();

WARNING: terminating connection because of crash of another server
process

Joe found this while beating up on the SSI patch, but I'm also
seeing it on unpatched HEAD, as checked out from git. This is 32
bit kubuntu and ubuntu (different versions).

The buildfarm isn't reporting any such thing. Could you get a CVS
checkout and diff it against the git results?

Basically do makemake installinitdbpg_ctl startmake installcheckpg_ctl -m immediate stoppg_ctl start At this point I see the assertion in the logs.

Oh, OK, I misread Kevin to say this would happen during make
installcheck itself. So the lack of buildfarm reports is not relevant.
Will get some caffeine in me and then take a look.

I can reproduce this; looks like it is fallout from the
RelFileNodeBackend patch. Stack trace from core dump is

I guess that something isn't properly setting up rnode.backend in
recovery processing, but didn't find it yet.

CreateFakeRelcacheEntry is the culprit ...
