From 63e316f0bc1d73276b94283ab482513892c5ee75 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Heikki Linnakangas Date: Thu, 3 Dec 2020 15:57:48 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] Fix pg_rewind bugs when rewinding a standby server. If the target is a standby server, its WAL doesn't end at the last checkpoint record, but at minRecoveryPoint. We must scan all the WAL from the last common checkpoint all the way up to minRecoveryPoint for modified pages, and also consider that portion when determining whether the server needs rewinding. Backpatch to all supported versions.
