Sometimes VACUUM will not get to these pages, because they are marked All Frozen.
An possibly some tuples will get stale on this page again

Hmm, okay, will have a look into this. Thanks.

VACUUM has collection of dead item pointers. We will not resurrect any of them, right?

We won't be doing any such things.

Sorry, I just overlooked that call, everything is fine here.

Okay, thanks for confirming.

You may have 10 corrupted tuples for the same record, that was updated 9 times. And if you have unique constraint on the table you may want to have only latest version of the row. So you want to kill 9 tuples and freeze 1.

Okay, in that case, users need to pass the tids of the 9 tuples that they want to kill to heap_force_kill function and the tid of the tuple that they want to be marked as frozen to heap_force_freeze function. Just to inform you that this tool is not used to detect any data corruption, it is just meant to remove/clean the corrupted data in a table so that the operations like vacuum, pg_dump/restore succeeds. It's users responsibility to identify the corrupted data and pass its tid to either of these functions as per the requirement.
