If a cluster is promoted (aka the control file shows a state different
than DB_IN_ARCHIVE_RECOVERY) while CreateRestartPoint() is still
processing, this function could miss an update of the control file for
"checkPoint" and "checkPointCopy" but still do the recycling and/or
removal of the past WAL segments, assuming that the to-be-updated LSN
values should be used as reference points for the cleanup. This causes
a follow-up restart attempting crash recovery to fail with a PANIC on a
missing checkpoint record if the end-of-recovery checkpoint triggered by
the promotion did not complete while the cluster abruptly stopped or
crashed before the completion of this checkpoint. The PANIC would be
caused by the redo LSN referred in the control file as located in a
segment already gone, recycled by the previous restartpoint with
"checkPoint" out-of-sync in the control file.
This commit fixes the update of the control file during restartpoints so
as "checkPoint" and "checkPointCopy" are updated even if the cluster has
been promoted while a restartpoint is running, to be on par with the set
of WAL segments actually recycled in the end of CreateRestartPoint().
This problem exists in all the stable branches. However, commit

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types and functions. This distribution also contains C language bindings. PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here: https://www.postgresql.org/download/ See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install PostgreSQL. That file also lists supported operating systems and hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL system. Copyright and license information can be found in the file COPYRIGHT. A comprehensive documentation set is included in this distribution; it can be read as described in the installation instructions.
