Ick. That looks like somehow we end up with smgr entries still pointing to fake relcache entries, created in a prior attempt at create database. Looks like you'd need error trapping to call FreeFakeRelcacheEntry() (or just smgrclearowner()) in case of error. Or perhaps we can instead prevent the fake relcache entry being set as the owner in the first place? Why do we even need fake relcache entries here? Looks like all that they're used for is a bunch of RelationGetSmgr() calls? Can't we instead just pass the rnode to smgropen()? Given that we're doing that once for every buffer in the body of RelationCopyStorageUsingBuffer(), doing it in a bunch of other less-frequent places can't be a problem. can't Greetings, Andres Freund
