Hi
I think I just found a bug in logical replication. Data couldn't be
synchronized while updating toast data. Could anyone take a look at it?
Here is the steps to proceduce the BUG:
------publisher------
CREATE TABLE toasted_key (
id serial,
toasted_key text PRIMARY KEY,
toasted_col1 text,
toasted_col2 text
);
CREATE PUBLICATION pub FOR TABLE toasted_key;
------subscriber------
CREATE TABLE toasted_key (
id serial,
toasted_key text PRIMARY KEY,
toasted_col1 text,
toasted_col2 text
);
CREATE SUBSCRIPTION sub CONNECTION 'dbname=postgres' PUBLICATION pub;
------publisher------
ALTER TABLE toasted_key ALTER COLUMN toasted_key SET STORAGE EXTERNAL;
ALTER TABLE toasted_key ALTER COLUMN toasted_col1 SET STORAGE EXTERNAL;
INSERT INTO toasted_key(toasted_key, toasted_col1) VALUES(repeat('1234567890',
200), repeat('9876543210', 200));
UPDATE toasted_key SET toasted_col2 = toasted_col1;
------subscriber------
SELECT count(*) FROM toasted_key WHERE toasted_col2 = toasted_col1;
The above command is supposed to output "count = 1" but in fact it outputs
"count = 0" which means UPDATE operation failed at the subscriber. Right?
I debugged and found the subscriber could receive message from publisher, and
in apply_handle_update_internal function, it invoked FindReplTupleInLocalRel
function but failed to find a tuple.
FYI, I also tested DELETE operation(DELETE FROM toasted_key;), which also
invoked FindReplTupleInLocalRel function, and the result is ok.
