Upgrade considerations

pg_tde 1.0 is not backward compatible with previous pg_tde versions (like Release Candidate 2) due to significant changes in code. This means you cannot directly upgrade from one version to another. You must do a clean installation of pg_tde.

Known issues

  • The default mlock limit on Rocky Linux 8 for ARM64-based architectures equals the memory page size and is 64 Kb. This results in the child process with pg_tde failing to allocate another memory page because the max memory limit is reached by the parent process.

To prevent this, you can change the mlock limit to be at least twice bigger than the memory page size:

  • temporarily for the current session using the ulimit -l <value> command.
  • set a new hard limit in the /etc/security/limits.conf file. To do so, you require the superuser privileges.

Adjust the limits with caution since it affects other processes running in your system.
