When I compiled the HEAD with the patches, I got the following warnings.
index.c:1273: warning: unused variable 'parentRel'
execUtils.c:1199: warning: 'return' with no value, in function
returning non-void
When I ran REINDEX CONCURRENTLY for the same index from two different
sessions, I got the deadlock. The error log is:
ERROR: deadlock detected
DETAIL: Process 37121 waits for ShareLock on virtual transaction
2/196; blocked by process 36413.
Process 36413 waits for ShareUpdateExclusiveLock on relation 16457 of
database 12293; blocked by process 37121.
Process 37121: REINDEX TABLE CONCURRENTLY pgbench_accounts;
Process 36413: REINDEX TABLE CONCURRENTLY pgbench_accounts;
HINT: See server log for query details.
STATEMENT: REINDEX TABLE CONCURRENTLY pgbench_accounts;
And, after the REINDEX CONCURRENTLY that survived the deadlock finished,
I found that new index with another name was created. It was NOT marked as
INVALID. Are these behaviors intentional?
=# \di pgbench_accounts*
List of relations
Schema | Name | Type | Owner | Table
--------+---------------------------+-------+----------+------------------
public | pgbench_accounts_pkey | index | postgres | pgbench_accounts
public | pgbench_accounts_pkey_cct | index | postgres | pgbench_accounts
(2 rows)
