Hi.

I've looked at patches, introducing CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY for
partitioned tables -
https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/flat/20210226182019.GU20769%40telsasoft.com#da169a0a518bf8121604437d9ab053b3
.
The thread didn't have any activity for a year.

I've rebased patches and tried to fix issues I've seen. I've fixed
reference after table_close() in the first patch (can be seen while
building with CPPFLAGS='-DRELCACHE_FORCE_RELEASE'). Also merged old
0002-f-progress-reporting.patch and
0003-WIP-Add-SKIPVALID-flag-for-more-integration.patch. It seems the
first one didn't really fixed issue with progress report (as
ReindexRelationConcurrently() uses pgstat_progress_start_command(),
which seems to mess up the effect of this command in DefineIndex()).
Also third patch completely removes attempts to report create index
progress correctly (reindex reports about individual commands, not the
whole CREATE INDEX).

So I've added 0003-Try-to-fix-create-index-progress-report.patch,
which tries to fix the mess with create index progress report. It
introduces new flag REINDEXOPT_REPORT_PART to ReindexParams->options.
Given this flag, ReindexRelationConcurrently() will not report about
individual operations, but ReindexMultipleInternal() will report about
reindexed partitions. To make the issue worse, some partitions can be
handled in ReindexPartitions() and ReindexMultipleInternal() should
know how many to correctly update PROGRESS_CREATEIDX_PARTITIONS_DONE
counter, so we pass the number of handled partitions to it.

I also have question if in src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c:1239
1240                 oldcontext = MemoryContextSwitchTo(ind_context);
1239                 childidxs = RelationGetIndexList(childrel);
1241                 attmap =
1242 build_attrmap_by_name(RelationGetDescr(childrel),
1243                                           parentDesc);
1244                 MemoryContextSwitchTo(oldcontext);

should live in ind_context, given that we iterate over this list of
oids and immediately free it, but at least it shouldn't do much harm.

Sorry, messed the topic.
