From a4309e85f4614315584e67737ea7b5efa19fb24c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Masahiko Sawada Date: Thu, 3 Apr 2025 10:30:02 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] Restrict copying of invalidated replication slots. Previously, invalidated logical and physical replication slots could be copied using the pg_copy_logical_replication_slot and pg_copy_physical_replication_slot functions. Replication slots that were invalidated for reasons other than WAL removal retained their restart_lsn. This meant that a new slot copied from an invalidated slot could have a restart_lsn pointing to a WAL segment that might have already been removed. This commit restricts the copying of invalidated replication slots. Backpatch to v16, where slots could retain their restart_lsn when invalidated for reasons other than WAL removal. For v15 and earlier, this check is not required since slots can only be invalidated due to WAL removal, and existing checks already handle this issue.
