Docs about failover are here:
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/warm-standby-failover.html

Now I don't recall that we have a section about a step-by-step
procedure for one case of failover or another.  The docs could be
perhaps improved regarding that, particularly for the case mentioned
here where it is possible to relink a previous master to a promoted
standby without risks of corruption:
- Stop cleanly the primary with smart or fast mode.
- Promote the standby.
- Add recovery.conf to the previous primary.
- Restart the previous primary as a new standby.
