Hello.
I reviewed this patch and I would like to share some comments.
It compiled with those 2 warnings:
verify_gin.c: In function 'gin_check_parent_keys_consistency':
verify_gin.c:481:38: warning: declaration of 'maxoff' shadows a previous
local [-Wshadow=compatible-local]
481 | OffsetNumber maxoff =
PageGetMaxOffsetNumber(page);
| ^~~~~~
verify_gin.c:453:41: note: shadowed declaration is here
453 | maxoff;
| ^~~~~~
verify_gin.c:423:25: warning: unused variable 'heapallindexed'
[-Wunused-variable]
423 | bool heapallindexed = *((bool*)callback_state);
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Also, I'm not sure about postgres' headers conventions, inside amcheck.h,
there is "miscadmin.h" included, and inside verify_gin.c, verify_gist.h
and verify_nbtree.c both amcheck.h and miscadmin.h are included.
About the documentation, the bt_index_parent_check has comments about the
ShareLock and "SET client_min_messages = DEBUG1;", and both
gist_index_parent_check and gin_index_parent_check lack it. verify_gin
uses DEBUG3, I'm not sure if it is on purpose, but it would be nice to
document it or put DEBUG1 to be consistent.
I lack enough context to do a deep review on the code, so in this area
this patch needs more eyes.
I did the following test:
postgres=# create table teste (t text, tv tsvector);
CREATE TABLE
postgres=# insert into teste values ('hello', 'hello'::tsvector);
INSERT 0 1
postgres=# create index teste_tv on teste using gist(tv);
CREATE INDEX
postgres=# select pg_relation_filepath('teste_tv');
pg_relation_filepath

A simple index corruption in gin:
postgres=# CREATE TABLE "gin_check"("Column1" int[]);
CREATE TABLE
postgres=# insert into gin_check values (ARRAY[1]),(ARRAY[2]);
INSERT 0 2
postgres=# CREATE INDEX gin_check_idx on "gin_check" USING GIN("Column1");
CREATE INDEX
postgres=# select pg_relation_filepath('gin_check_idx');

There are more code paths to follow to check the entire code, and I had a
hard time to corrupt the indices. Is there any automated code to corrupt
index to test such code?
