Ok, so the immediate cause was quick to find: when decoding a
commit-prepared WAL record, we have to use the XID from the record
content (patch attached). The XID in the record header is the XID of the
transaction doing the COMMIT PREPARED, which is always 0 after patch
bb38fb0d43c8d7ff54072bfd8bd63154e536b384 which causes the assertion. But
it was always wrong. After fixing, it no longer asserts or gives the
above "could not map filenode" error.
However, it still doesn't seem right. When I do the above as a regular
transaction, ie:
begin; insert into foo values (6); alter table foo alter column id type
text; commit;
pg_recvlogical prints this:
BEGIN 708
table public.foo: INSERT: id[text]:'6'
COMMIT 708
But if I do it as a prepared transaction:
begin; insert into foo values (7); alter table foo alter column id type
text; prepare transaction 'foo'; commit prepared 'foo';
pg_recvlogical prints nothing.
