Yes, I agree because (IsNormalProcessingMode() ) means that current process is not in bootstrap mode and postmaster process will not build index. So my new modified patch is attached.

This will launch several workers and each of then will try to apply a dynamic shared memory segment, which is not allowed in stand-alone mode. I think it is better not to use btree index build in parallel in stand-alone mode. My patch is attached below. Good catch. This is a bug in parallel index(btree) creation. I could reproduce this assertion failure with HEAD even by using CREATE INDEX command. - indexRelation->rd_rel->relam == BTREE_AM_OID) + indexRelation->rd_rel->relam == BTREE_AM_OID && IsPostmasterEnvironment && !IsBackendStandAlone()) +#define IsBackendStandAlone() (!IsBootstrapProcessingMode() && !IsPostmasterEnvironment) /* * Auxiliary-process type identifiers. These used to be in bootstrap.h * but it seems saner to have them here, with the ProcessingMode stuff. I think we can use IsUnderPostmaster instead. If it's false we should not enable parallel index creation. Regards, -- Masahiko Sawada EnterpriseDB: https://www.enterprisedb.com/
