From 66bb74dbe8206a35433d7cb0c47d82248a019802 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tom Lane Date: Mon, 15 Dec 2008 18:09:41 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] Arrange for the pg_foo_is_visible and has_foo_privilege families of functions to return NULL, instead of erroring out, if the target object is specified by OID and we can't find that OID in the catalogs. Since these functions operate internally on SnapshotNow rules, there is a race condition when using them in user queries: the query's MVCC snapshot might "see" a catalog row that's already committed dead, leading to a failure when the inquiry function is applied. Returning NULL should generally provide more convenient behavior. This issue has been complained of before, and in particular we are now seeing it in the regression tests due to another recent patch. --- src/backend/catalog/namespace.c | 61 +++++++++++++++- src/backend/utils/adt/acl.c | 89 ++++++++++++++++++++++-- src/test/regress/expected/privileges.out | 6 +- 3 files changed, 148 insertions(+), 8 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/catalog/namespace.c b/src/backend/catalog/namespace.c index 6c83755a4c..e665e9594d 100644 --- a/src/backend/catalog/namespace.c +++ b/src/backend/catalog/namespace.c @@ -13,7 +13,7 @@ * Portions Copyright (c) 1994, Regents of the University of California * * IDENTIFICATION - * $PostgreSQL: pgsql/src/backend/catalog/namespace.c,v 1.113 2008/12/04 17:51:26 petere Exp $ + * $PostgreSQL: pgsql/src/backend/catalog/namespace.c,v 1.114 2008/12/15 18:09:40 tgl Exp $ * *------------------------------------------------------------------------- */ @@ -3250,6 +3250,15 @@ fetch_search_path_array(Oid *sarray, int sarray_len) /* * Export the FooIsVisible functions as SQL-callable functions. + * + * Note: as of Postgres 8.4, these will silently return NULL if called on + * a nonexistent object OID, rather than failing.
