When an FK constraint is created, it needs the index on the referenced table to exist and be valid. When doing parallel pg_restore and the referenced table was partitioned, this condition can sometimes not be met, because pg_dump didn't emit sufficient object dependencies to ensure so; this means that parallel pg_restore would fail in certain conditions. Fix by having pg_dump make the FK constraint object dependent on the partition attachment objects for the constraint's referenced index. This has been broken since f56f8f8da6af, so backpatch to Postgres 12. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/20191005224333.GA9738@alvherre.pgsql
PostgreSQL Database Management System ===================================== This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL database management system. PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types and functions. This distribution also contains C language bindings. PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here: https://www.postgresql.org/download See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install PostgreSQL. That file also lists supported operating systems and hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL system. Copyright and license information can be found in the file COPYRIGHT. A comprehensive documentation set is included in this distribution; it can be read as described in the installation instructions. The latest version of this software may be obtained at https://www.postgresql.org/download/. For more information look at our web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
