You're exactly right. I managed to reproduce the problem shown by buildfarm members, and indeed this fixes it. And it makes sense: the adjustment you refer to, is precisely to skip the page header when the LSN is the start of the page, which is exactly the problem we're seeing in the buildfarm ... except that on lapwing branch REL_11_STABLE, we're seeing the LSN is off by 0x14 instead of 0x18. That seems very strange. I think the reason for this is that lapwing has MAXALIGN 4, so MAXALIGN(sizeof(XLogPageHeaderData)) is 20, not 24 as is the case in the other failing members. ... checks buildfarm ... Yeah, all the others in Tom's list are x86-64. I'm pushing the fix in a minute. -- Álvaro Herrera PostgreSQL Developer — https://www.EnterpriseDB.com/ "¿Qué importan los años?
