The following bug has been logged on the website:
Bug reference: 8269
Logged by: PITR Recovery by timestamp ignores recovery_target_inclusive
Email address: eyal(dot)kaspi(at)delphix(dot)com
PostgreSQL version: 9.2.4
Operating system: RHEL
Description:
While doing Point-in-time recovery and specifying a timestamp as the target,
I noticed that the timestamp is always considered as exclusive (as if
recovery_target_inclusive was set to false), i.e the recovery process will
always stop before the timestamp and never after. Example:
$cat recovery.conf:
restore_command = 'cp ../archive/%f %p 2>/dev/null'
recovery_target_time = '2013-06-27 17:40:10-0700'
recovery_target_inclusive = true
after recovery in the postgres log file:
...
LOG: starting point-in-time recovery to 2013-06-27 17:40:10-07
LOG: restored log file "000000010000002B000000A7" from archive
...
LOG: recovery stopping before commit of transaction 1962, time 2013-06-27
17:40:15.849203-07
LOG: redo done at 2B/B0004098
LOG: last completed transaction was at log time 2013-06-27
17:39:59.047882-07
LOG: selected new timeline ID: 2
By looking at the source, it appears that the problem is in xlog.c, function
'recoveryStopsHere':
#########
5969: if (recoveryTargetInclusive)
5970: stopsHere = (recordXtime > recoveryTargetTime);
5971: else
5972: stopsHere = (recordXtime >= recoveryTargetTime);
5973:if (stopsHere)
5974: *includeThis = false;
#########
Even if recoveryTargetInclusive is true, includeThis will bet set to false
when reaching the last record, causing the record not to be applied. The
correct solution would be to do what is done for the RECOVERT_TARGET_XID
case
#########
if (stopsHere)
*includeThis = recoveryTargetInclusive;
