During recovery process of a self contained backup, how postgres know to stop reading wal when consistency is reached?


Because it knows the full packup info. It will observe the

STOP WAL LOCATION: 3BC7/4B000130 (file 0000000200003BC70000004B)

inside the backup file

 It's a full contained backup because you haven't called with the |-X /|method none|/| , and it doesn't get into standby because you haven't called with |--write-recovery-conf !|
