I am seeing the database fail to restart after a crash during the
regression tests, due to a divide-by-zero fault in BRIN wal replay.
Core was generated by `postgres: startup'.
Program terminated with signal 8, Arithmetic exception.
#0 brinSetHeapBlockItemptr (buf=<value optimized out>, pagesPerRange=0,
heapBlk=0, tid=...) at brin_revmap.c:169
169 iptr += HEAPBLK_TO_REVMAP_INDEX(pagesPerRange, heapBlk);
(gdb) bt

The proximate cause of the exception seems to be that
brinSetHeapBlockItemptr is being passed pagesPerRange = 0,
which is problematic since HEAPBLK_TO_REVMAP_INDEX tries to
divide by that. Looking one level down, the bogus value
seems to be coming out of an xl_brin_desummarize WAL record:
(gdb) f 1
#1 0x0000000000478cdc in brin_xlog_desummarize_page (record=0x2403ac8)
at brin_xlog.c:274
274 brinSetHeapBlockItemptr(buffer, xlrec->pagesPerRange,
xlrec->heapBlk, iptr);
(gdb) p *xlrec
$1 = {pagesPerRange = 0, heapBlk = 0, regOffset = 1}
This is, perhaps, not unrelated to the fact that
brinRevmapDesummarizeRange doesn't seem to be bothering to fill
that field of the record.
BTW, is it actually sensible that xl_brin_desummarize's heapBlk
is declared OffsetNumber and not BlockNumber? If there's a reason
why that's correct, the field name seems damn misleading.
