Обсуждение: Running the fdw test from the terminal crashes into the core-dump
Hi, hackers!
After starting the server (initdb + pg_ctl start) I ran a regress test
create_misc.sql ('\i src/test/regress/sql/create_misc.sql') and, after
that,
I ran the fdw test ('\i contrib/postgres_fdw/sql/postgres_fdw.sql') in
the psql, and it failed in the core-dump due to the worked assert.
To be honest, such a failure occurred only if the fdw extension was not
installed earlier.
script to reproduce the error:
./configure CFLAGS='-g -ggdb -O0' --enable-debug --enable-cassert
--prefix=`pwd`/tmp_install && make -j8 -s install
export CDIR=$(pwd)
export PGDATA=$CDIR/postgres_data
rm -r $PGDATA
mkdir $PGDATA
${CDIR}/tmp_install/bin/initdb -D $PGDATA >> log.txt
${CDIR}/tmp_install/bin/pg_ctl -D $PGDATA -l logfile start
${CDIR}/tmp_install/bin/psql -d postgres -f
src/test/regress/sql/create_misc.sql &&
${CDIR}/tmp_install/bin/psql -d postgres -f
contrib/postgres_fdw/sql/postgres_fdw.sql
The query, where the problem is:
-- MERGE ought to fail cleanly
merge into itrtest using (select 1, 'foo') as source on (true)
when matched then do nothing;

This error is consistently reproduced.
To be honest, I wasn't able to fully figure out the reason for this, but
it seems that this operation on partitions should not be available at all?
alena@postgres=# SELECT relname, relkind FROM pg_class where
relname='itrtest';

Thanks for the report! This can be reproduced more simply with
z=# create table test (a int, b text) partition by list(a);
CREATE TABLE
z=# merge into test using (select 1, 'foo') as source on (true) when matched then do nothing;
server closed the connection unexpectedly
The MERGE produces a query tree with
:rtable (
{RANGETBLENTRY
:alias <>
:eref
{ALIAS
:aliasname test
:colnames ("a" "b")
}
:rtekind 0
:relid 49152
:relkind p
:rellockmode 3
:tablesample <>
:perminfoindex 1
:lateral false
:inh true
:inFromCl false
:securityQuals <>
}
...
)
:rteperminfos (
{RTEPERMISSIONINFO
:relid 49152
:inh true
:requiredPerms 0
:checkAsUser 0
:selectedCols (b)
:insertedCols (b)
:updatedCols (b)
}
)
and that zero for requiredPerms is what leads to the assertion
failure later. So I'd blame this on faulty handling of the
zero-partitions case in the RTEPermissionInfo refactoring.
(I didn't bisect to prove that a61b1f748 is exactly where it
broke, but I do see that the query successfully does nothing
in v15.)

OK, so it turns out that the bug is older than that -- it was actually introduced with MERGE itself (7103ebb7aae8) and has nothing to do with partitioning or RTEPermissionInfo; commit a61b1f748 is only related because it added the Assert() that barfs when there are no privileges to check. The real problem is that a MERGE ... DO NOTHING action reports that no permissions need to be checked on the target relation, which is not a problem when there are other actions in the MERGE command since they add privs to check. When DO NOTHING is the only action, the added assert in a61b1f748 is triggered. So, this means we can fix this by simply requiring ACL_SELECT privileges on a DO NOTHING action. We don't need to request specific privileges on any particular column (perminfo->selectedCols continues to be the empty set) -- which means that any role that has privileges on *any* column would get a pass. If you're doing MERGE with any other action besides DO NOTHING, you already have privileges on at least some column, so adding ACL_SELECT breaks nothing. -- Álvaro Herrera 48°01'N 7°57'E — https://www.EnterpriseDB.com/ "Pido que me den el Nobel por razones humanitarias" (Nicanor Parra)

LGTM.

Thanks for looking! After having pushed that, I wonder if we should document this. It seems quite the minor thing, but I'm sure somebody will complain if we don't. I propose the attached.

Yup, no doubt.

This reads awkwardly to me. I think it'd be better to construct it
so that DO NOTHING's requirement is stated exactly parallel to the other
three clause types, more or less as attached.

Agreed, and done in my version too.
BTW, if you read it without paying attention to markup, you'll notice
that we are saying things like
If you specify an insert action, you must have the INSERT
privilege on the target_table_name.
which is fairly nonsensical: we don't define privileges on the name
of something. While I've not done anything about that here,
I wonder if we shouldn't just write "privilege on the target table"
without any special markup.
