If LISTEN is the only action in a serializable-mode transaction, and the session was not previously listening, and the notify queue is not empty, predicate.c reported an assertion failure. That happened because we'd acquire the transaction's initial snapshot during PreCommit_Notify, which was called *after* predicate.c expects any such snapshot to have been established. To fix, just swap the order of the PreCommit_Notify and PreCommit_CheckForSerializationFailure calls during CommitTransaction. This will imply holding the notify-insertion lock slightly longer, but the difference could only be meaningful in serializable mode, which is an expensive option anyway. It appears that this is just an assertion failure, with no consequences in non-assert builds. A snapshot used only to scan the notify queue could not have been involved in any serialization conflicts, so there would be nothing for PreCommit_CheckForSerializationFailure to do except assign it a prepareSeqNo and set the SXACT_FLAG_PREPARED flag. And given no conflicts, neither of those omissions affect the behavior of ReleasePredicateLocks. This admittedly once-over-lightly analysis is backed up by the lack of field reports of trouble. Per report from Mark Dilger. The bug is old, so back-patch to all supported branches; but the new test case only goes back to 9.6, for lack of adequate isolationtester infrastructure before that.

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/.
