The places that attempt to change pg_index.indcheckxmin during a reindexing operation cannot be executed safely if pg_index itself is the subject of the operation. This is the explanation for a couple of recent reports of VACUUM FULL failing with ERROR: duplicate key value violates unique constraint "pg_index_indexrelid_index" DETAIL: Key (indexrelid)=(2678) already exists. However, there isn't any real need to update indcheckxmin in such a situation, if we assume that pg_index can never contain a truly broken HOT chain. This assumption holds if new indexes are never created on it during concurrent operations, which is something we don't consider safe for any system catalog, not just pg_index. Accordingly, modify the code to not manipulate indcheckxmin when reindexing any system catalog. Back-patch to 8.3, where HOT was introduced. The known failure scenarios involve 9.0-style VACUUM FULL, so there might not be any real risk before 9.0, but let's not assume that. |

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 including some of the more common listed below: C++ - http://pqxx.org/development/libpqxx/ JDBC - http://jdbc.postgresql.org ODBC - http://odbc.postgresql.org Perl - http://search.cpan.org/~dbdpg/ PHP - http://www.php.net Python - http://www.initd.org/ Ruby - http://ruby.scripting.ca/postgres/ Other language binding are available from a variety of contributing parties. PostgreSQL also has a great number of procedural languages available, a short, incomplete list is below: PL/pgSQL - included in PostgreSQL source distribution PL/Perl - included in PostgreSQL source distribution PL/PHP - http://projects.commandprompt.com/projects/public/plphp PL/Python - included in PostgreSQL source distribution PL/Java - http://pgfoundry.org/projects/pljava/ PL/Tcl - included in PostgreSQL source distribution 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. Changes between all PostgreSQL releases are recorded in the file HISTORY. 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/.
