Thread: BUG #17586: Look like there are an another bug in REINDEX INDEX CONCURRENTLY of pg_toast indexes

The following bug has been logged on the website:

Bug reference:      17586
Logged by:          Maxim Boguk

PostgreSQL version: 14.4
Operating system:   Ubuntu Linux
Description:

Details about the data structure
pg_toast.pg_toast_2502234687_index is index toast of exports_new_2022_32w
partition of exports_new table (Partition key: RANGE (epoch))

During the reindex job there were quite a lot new inserts into
exports_new_2022_32w table via partition head.

and so on...

A follow-up secondary manual REINDEX INDEX CONCURRENTLY
pg_toast.pg_toast_2502234687_index resolved the problem with damaged
toast.

Problems do not always happen (rarely) and I cannot build a quick reproducer
so far.

Kind Regards,

Hm. What is the setup of this system? Do you have a hot_standby_feedback
enabled replica? Does it use replication slots? Did it reconnect at the time?

This issue could be due to the xmin horizon going backward, rather than a bug
in reindex concurrently itself.


Too bad we don't have an errcontext set up for this, it'd be quite helpful to
know what row the missing toast value is in, so we could check its visibility.

Hi,
hot_standby_feedback enabled replica - yes (but with minimal activity)
use replication slots - no and no other apps with replication slots
Did it reconnect at the time - most definitely no, pg_stat_replication shows
backend_start    | 2022-06-30 07:36:51.095073+00
for replication connection.
Also I have log_replication_commands enabled and nothing about replication logged during the last week.

Hm. How often does this occur? And could you run a server with a bit of added
debugging? Otherwise I don't see how we can narrow this down, unfortunately.
