After a timeline switch, we would leave behind recycled WAL segments that are in the future, but on the old timeline. After promotion, and after they become old enough to be recycled again, we would notice that they don't have a .ready or .done file, create a .ready file for them, and archive them. That's bogus, because the files contain garbage, recycled from an older timeline (or prealloced as zeros). We shouldn't archive such files. This could happen when we're following a timeline switch during replay, or when we switch to new timeline at end-of-recovery. To fix, whenever we switch to a new timeline, scan the data directory for WAL segments on the old timeline, but with a higher segment number, and remove them. Those don't belong to our timeline history, and are most likely bogus recycled or preallocated files. They could also be valid files that we streamed from the primary ahead of time, but in any case, they're not needed to recover to the new timeline. |

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: http://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 http://www.postgresql.org/download/. For more information look at our web site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
