It'll happen whenever there is a certain kind of data corruption. There were complaints about issues like this in the past. But those complaints seem to have gone away when more hardening was added to the code that runs during original execution (not the REDO routine code, which can only do what it is told to do by the WAL record). You're using PostgreSQL 13.2, which is a very old point release that lacks this hardening -- the current 13 point release is 13.18, so you're missing a lot. Had you been on a later point release you'd very probably have still had the issue with corruption (which could be from bad hardware), but you likely would have avoided the problem with the REDO routine crashing like this. -- Peter Geoghegan
