From 9eacdd050a8041b358df11ca3e18c1071b693d20 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Kyotaro Horiguchi Date: Fri, 28 Feb 2020 15:52:58 +0900 Subject: [PATCH v10] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like "invalid record length" that suggests something serious is happening. Actually if recovery meets a record with length = 0, that usually means it finished applying all available WAL records. Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL". Instead, raise the error level for other kind of WAL failure to WARNING. --- src/backend/access/transam/xlog.c | 91 +++++++++++++----- src/backend/access/transam/xlogreader.c | 77 +++++++++++++++ src/backend/replication/walreceiver.c | 7 +- src/bin/pg_waldump/pg_waldump.c | 13 ++- src/include/access/xlogreader.h | 1 + src/test/recovery/t/011_crash_recovery.pl | 110 +++++++++++++++++++++- 6 files changed, 269 insertions(+), 30 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/transam/xlog.c b/src/backend/access/transam/xlog.c index dfe2a0bcce..378c13ccf7 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/transam/xlog.c +++ b/src/backend/access/transam/xlog.c @@ -4480,6 +4480,7 @@ ReadRecord(XLogReaderState *xlogreader, int emode, for (;;) { char *errormsg; + XLogRecPtr ErrRecPtr = InvalidXLogRecPtr; record = XLogReadRecord(xlogreader, &errormsg); if (record == NULL) @@ -4495,6 +4496,18 @@ ReadRecord(XLogReaderState *xlogreader, int emode, { abortedRecPtr = xlogreader->abortedRecPtr; missingContrecPtr = xlogreader->missingContrecPtr; + ErrRecPtr = abortedRecPtr; + } + else + { + /* + * NULL ReadRecPtr means we could not read a record at the + * beginning.
