Bug reference: 8397
Logged by: TAKATSUKA Haruka
Email address: haru...@sraoss.co.jp
PostgreSQL version: 9.2.4
Operating system: Linux (CentOS6)
Description:
Hi.
I report a small bug.
pg_basebackup -x from new standby server sometimes causes Segmentation
fault.
(1) create new standby server dir by pg_basebackup without -x
(2) start new standby server
(3) pg_basebackup from new standby server with -x
(!) when new standby has no WAL files in pg_xlog,
new standby's wal sender crash
new standby server's core file:
Core was generated by `postgres: wal sender process postgres ::1(55210)
sending backup "pg_basebackup'.
Program terminated with signal 11, Segmentation fault.

XLogFromFileName(walFiles[0], &tli, &logid, &logseg);
In this case, nWalFiles = 0 and walFiles[] palloced zero size.
Though pg_basebackup does not have to work in this rare case,
we should insert something like "if (nWalFiles <= 0) ereport(...);".
