Yeah, I just came to the same conclusion. One thing I don't understand yet: log_newpage_range is old (it looks like this back to v12), and that Assert is older, so why doesn't this reproduce further back? Maybe the state where all the pages are new didn't happen before? Is that telling us there's a bug somewhere else? Seems like a job for git bisect. To be clear: log_newpage_range is certainly broken, and your fix looks appropriate. I'm just wondering what else we need to learn here. regards, tom lane
