Hi,
I have Pg 14.4 on arm64, and I'm loading schema dump from pg12.
Specifically, command to run it is:
sudo -u postgres pg_restore -j 64 -d database -L /tmp/schema-post-data.nopkey.list /tmp/schema-post-data.dump
where /tmp/schema-post-data.dump is dump made using:
sudo -u postgres pg_dump --schema-only --compress=9 --format=c --section='post-data' --schema='*(something|else|xxx)*'
database
and /tmp/schema-post-data.nopkey.list is made using:
#v+
pkey_regexp='^\d+; \d+ \d+ CONSTRAINT \S+ \S+ \S+_pkey '
pg_restore -l "${local_dump_dir}/schema-post-data.dump" | grep -vP "${pkey_regexp}" >
"${local_dump_dir}/schema-post-data.nopkey.list"
#v-
The thing is that the list file has 7676 lines, out of which 2313 are
foreign keys.
database has basically 3 schemas, and fkeys NEVER cross schema.
When loading the dump I got reported 4 errors, but log shows 2 deadlocks.
perhaps all sides got cancelled, not sure, will investigate further, but logs
show:

Now, I know I can fix the situation by adding missing fkeys myself, but
I don't think pg_restore should be putting itself in deadlock.
Best regards,
