The phase of the test where we want to check that 2PC transactions
prepared on a primary can be committed on a promoted standby relied on
an immediate stop of the primary. This logic has a race condition: it
could be possible that some records (most likely standby snapshot
records) are generated on the primary before it finishes its shutdown,
without the promoted standby know about them. When the primary is
recycled as new standby, the test could fail because of a timeline fork
as an effect of these extra records.
This fix takes care of the instability by doing a clean stop of the
primary instead of a teardown (aka immediate stop), so as all records
generated on the primary are sent to the promoted standby and flushed
there. There is no need for a teardown of the primary in this test
scenario: the commit of 2PC transactions on a promoted standby do not
care about the state of the primary, only of the standby.
This race is very hard to hit in practice, even slow buildfarm members
like skink have a very low rate of reproduction. Alexander Lakhin has
come up with a recipe to improve the reproduction rate a lot:
- Enable -DWAL_DEBUG.
- Patch the bgwriter so as standby snapshots are generated every
milliseconds.
- Run 009_twophase tests under heavy parallelism.
With this method, the failure appears after a couple of iterations.
With the fix in place, I have been able to run more than 50 iterations
of the parallel test sequence, without seeing a failure.

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/.
