The Truncate operation acquires an exclusive lock on the target relation and indexes. It then waits for logical replication of the operation to finish at commit. Now because we are acquiring the shared lock on the target index to get index attributes in pgoutput while sending the changes for the Truncate operation, it leads to a deadlock. Actually, we don't need to acquire a lock on the target index as we build the cache entry using a historic snapshot and all the later changes are absorbed while decoding WAL. So, we wrote a special purpose function for logical replication to get a bitmap of replica identity attribute numbers where we get that information without locking the target index. We decided not to backpatch this as there doesn't seem to be any field complaint about this issue since it was introduced in commit 5dfd1e5a in v11.
