Yeah, agreed. I'm OK with what you are proposing, basically (the
test could be made a bit cheaper actually).

I don't understand what you want to change here. Archive recovery and
crash recovery are two different things, still this code would be
triggered even if there is no standby.signal, aka the node is not a
standby. Why isn't this stuff conditional?

I get it as Fujii-san testing the patch from [1], still failing the
test from [2]:
[1]: https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/zarvomifjze7f...@paquier.xyz
[2]:
https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/camyc8qrye7mkyvpvghct5gpanamp8ss_trbraqxcpbx14vi...@mail.gmail.com
I would be surprised, actually, because the patch from [1] would cause
step 7 of the test to fail: the patch causes standby.signal or
recovery.signal to be required. Anyway, this specific issue, if any,
had better be discussed on the other thread. I need to address a few
comments there as well and was planning to get back to it. It is
possible that I've missed something on the other thread with the
restrictions I was proposing in the latest version of the patch.
For this thread, let's focus on the pg_rewind case and how we want to
treat these records to improve the cascading case.
