PostgreSQL version: 9.5.11
Operating system: Debian GNU/Linux 8 (jessie)
Description:

Hello!
I have found a bug: deadlock not detected on standby.
It is actual for
PostgreSQL 9.5.11 on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu (Debian 9.5.11-1.pgdg80+1),
compiled by gcc (Debian 4.9.2-10) 4.9.2, 64-bit
PostgreSQL 9.4.16 on x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu (Debian 9.4.16-1.pgdg80+1),
compiled by gcc (Debian 4.9.2-10) 4.9.2, 64-bit

And this is not actual for
PostgreSQL 9.6.7 on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu (Debian 9.6.7-1.pgdg80+1), compiled
by gcc (Debian 4.9.2-10) 4.9.2, 64-bit
PostgreSQL 10.2 (Debian 10.2-1.pgdg80+1) on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, compiled by
gcc (Debian 4.9.2-10) 4.9.2, 64-bit

May be this behavior needed to be backported to older versions

-- on primary
--create table items(item_id int);
--create table options(item_id int, v1 text);

---- 1 st session - primary
begin;
alter table options add v2 int;

---- 2-nd session standby
begin;
select * from items;

---- 1 st session - primary
alter table items add a text;

on standby
select * from options;

deadlock not detected

in versions 9.6 and 10 - it's ok
