When creating and initializing a logical slot, the restart_lsn is set
to the latest WAL insertion point (or the latest replay point on
standbys). Subsequently, WAL records are decoded from that point to
find the start point for extracting changes in the
DecodingContextFindStartpoint() function. Since the initial
restart_lsn could be in the middle of a transaction, the start point
must be a consistent point where we won't see the data for partial
transactions.
Previously, when not building a full snapshot, serialized snapshots
were restored, and the SnapBuild jumps to the consistent state even
while finding the start point. Consequently, the slot's restart_lsn
and confirmed_flush could be set to the middle of a transaction. This
could lead to various unexpected consequences. Specifically, there
were reports of logical decoding decoding partial transactions, and
assertion failures occurred because only subtransactions were decoded
without decoding their top-level transaction until decoding the commit
record.
To resolve this issue, the changes prevent restoring the serialized
snapshot and jumping to the consistent state while finding the start
point.
On v17 and HEAD, a flag indicating whether snapshot restores should be
skipped has been added to the SnapBuild struct, and SNAPBUILD_VERSION
has been bumpded.
On backbranches, the flag is stored in the LogicalDecodingContext
instead, preserving on-disk compatibility.
Backpatch to all supported versions.
