Indeed, I simply implemented and verified the solution. In the above test, the "create index" command on RW will hang until the transaction on standby is committed or aborted.
In addition, even if there is no select query on the standby, RW's "create index" command may wait for a period of time, which affected by the wal_receiver_status_interval parameter.
You can see attachment for the patch.

Hi,
Thanks for the report!

I can confirm this bug in the current master and continue with your test:
postgres=*# set enable_seqscan to off;
SET
postgres=*# select a, b from t where a = 5;
a | b
---+---
(0 rows)
postgres=*# set enable_seqscan to on;
SET
postgres=*# select a, b from t where a = 5;
a | b
---+---
5 | 5
(1 row)
Different plan yieds different result is bad.

+1 for this one. The current code doesn't take the advice from the
comments for validate_index, where it says..
* .... Also, we index only tuples that are valid
* as of the start of the scan (see table_index_build_scan), whereas a normal
* build takes care to include recently-dead tuples. This is OK because
* we won't mark the index valid until all transactions that might be able
* to see those tuples are gone. The reason for doing that is ...
In the current code, it doesn't consider the sessiones in standby.
I guess you have worked out a fix for this, if so, could you provide
one for review / test?
