Pengchengliu reported an assertion failure in a parallel woker while performing a parallel scan using an overflowed snapshot. The proximate cause is that TransactionXmin was set to an incorrect value. The underlying cause is incorrect snapshot handling in parallel.c. In particular, InitializeParallelDSM() was unconditionally calling GetTransactionSnapshot(), because I (rhaas) mistakenly thought that was always retrieving an existing snapshot whereas, at isolation levels less than REPEATABLE READ, it's actually taking a new one. So instead do this only at higher isolation levels where there actually is a single snapshot for the whole transaction. By itself, this is not a sufficient fix, because we still need to guarantee that TransactionXmin gets set properly in the workers. The easiest way to do that seems to be to install the leader's active snapshot as the transaction snapshot if the leader did not serialize a transaction snapshot. This doesn't affect the results of future GetTrasnactionSnapshot() calls since those have to take a new snapshot anyway; what we care about is the side effect of setting TransactionXmin. Report by Pengchengliu. Patch by Greg Nancarrow, except for some comment text which I supplied. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/002f01d748ac$eaa781a0$bff684e0$@tju.edu.cn |

PostgreSQL Database Management System ===================================== This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL database management system. 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. The latest version of this software may be obtained at https://www.postgresql.org/download/. For more information look at our web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
