Hmm, I'm trying this out now and I don't see the index_rebuild_count
ever go up.  I think it's because the indexes are built using parallel
index build ... or maybe it was the table AM changes that moved things
around, not sure.  There's a period at the end when the CLUSTER command
keeps working, but it's gone from pg_stat_progress_cluster.


Thanks for your report.
I'll investigate it. :)


I did "git bisect" and found the commit:

 Report progress of REINDEX operations

In src/backend/catalog/index.c,
CLUSTER progress reporting increases index_rebuild_count in reindex_relation()
by pgstat_progress_update_param().
However, reindex_relation() calls reindex_index(), and REINDEX progress 
reporting is existing on the latter function, and it starts 
pgstat_progress_start_command() pgstat_progress_end_command() for REINDEX 
progress reporting.
Therefore, CLUSTER progress reporting failed to update index_rebuild_count 
because
it made a mistake to update the REINDEX's view, I think.

My Idea to fix that is following:

 - Add a target view name parameter to Progress monitor's API

  For example:
  <Before>
    pgstat_progress_update_param(PROGRESS_CLUSTER_INDEX_REBUILD_COUNT, i).

  <After>
    pgstat_progress_update_param(*PROGRESS_CLUSTER_VIEW*, 
PROGRESS_CLUSTER_INDEX_REBUILD_COUNT, i).

However, I'm not sure whether it is able or not because I haven't read
the code of the API yet.
What do you think about that? :)

Thanks,
Tatsuro Yamada
