The following bug has been logged on the website: Bug reference: 17690 Logged by: Jacob Baskin Email address: jacob.baskin@gmail.com PostgreSQL version: 13.0 Operating system: Linux (CentOS 7) Description: We have discovered that a badly-behaved client connected to a database hot replica can indefinitely block replication from progressing. The client's back-end gets into a state where it does not stop when the recovery process tries to cancel conflicting queries, as long as there is still pending data to be written. To trigger this, the client needs to be: - Actively running a query which conflicts with recovery - Not reading data from its socket about query results (e.g., run "select * from large_table" in psql and then Ctrl-Z as results are being streamed) We believe this failure mode is deterministic. This bug definitely affects postgres 13, and we believe it is still present in HEAD. We are running Linux (Centos 7). The sequence of events is as follows: 1. Postmaster tries to kill a connection that conflicts with recovery (standby.c:393) 2. The connection process gets SIGUSR1. 3. This invokes RecoveryConflictInterrupt, which sets QueryCancelPending, but NOT (generally) ProcDiePending (postgres.c:3039) 4. The connection process repeatedly processes ProcessClientWriteInterrupt, which will handle interrupts if ProcDiePending is set but not otherwise (postgres.c:526) We believe the appropriate fix is to check for RecoveryConflictPending in addition to ProcDiePending on postgres.c:526. This fix would be a one-line patch which we are happy to submit but first want to make sure that this is the correct approach. Thanks!
