Commit aac2c9b4fde889d13f859c233c2523345e72d32b mandated such locking and attempted to fulfill that mandate, but it missed REASSIGN OWNED. Hence, it remained possible to lose VACUUM's inplace update of datfrozenxid if a REASSIGN OWNED processed that database at the same time. This didn't affect the other inplace-updated catalog, pg_class. For pg_class, REASSIGN OWNED calls ATExecChangeOwner() instead of the generic AlterObjectOwner_internal(), and ATExecChangeOwner() fulfills the locking mandate. Like in GRANT, implement this by following the locking protocol for any catalog subject to the generic AlterObjectOwner_internal(). It would suffice to do this for IsInplaceUpdateOid() catalogs only. Back-patch to v13 (all supported versions). Kirill Reshke. Reported by Alexander Kukushkin. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/CAFh8B=mpKjAy4Cuun-HP-f_vRzh2HSvYFG3rhVfYbfEBUhBAGg@mail.gmail.com
