Hello, as in pgsql-bug ML.
/message-id/20180517.170021.24356216.horiguchi.kyotaro@lab.ntt.co.jp
Master can go into infinite loop on shutdown. But it is caused by
a broken database like storage rolled-back one. (The steps to
replay this is shown in the above mail.)
I think this can be avoided by rejecting a standby if it reports
that write LSN is smaller than flush LSN after catching up.
Is it worth fixing?
# The patch is slightly different from that I posted to -bugs.
It is enough to chek for the invalid state just once but the
patch continues the check.
regards,
