From 6ea8f495737f35f9d34a6c0d96b1174117066702 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tom Lane Date: Fri, 6 Oct 2006 18:23:35 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] Fix SysCacheGetAttr() to handle the case where the specified syscache has not been initialized yet. This can happen because there are code paths that call SysCacheGetAttr() on a tuple originally fetched from a different syscache (hopefully on the same catalog) than the one specified in the call. It doesn't seem useful or robust to try to prevent that from happening, so just improve the function to cope instead. Per bug#2678 from Jeff Trout. The specific example shown by Jeff is new in 8.1, but to be on the safe side I'm backpatching 8.0 as well. We could patch 7.x similarly but I think that's probably overkill, given the lack of evidence of old bugs of this ilk. --- src/backend/utils/cache/catcache.c | 18 ++++++++++-------- src/backend/utils/cache/syscache.c | 24 +++++++++++++++--------- src/include/utils/catcache.h | 4 ++-- 3 files changed, 27 insertions(+), 19 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/utils/cache/catcache.c b/src/backend/utils/cache/catcache.c index 0d1ae15b39..55b9d5baf0 100644 --- a/src/backend/utils/cache/catcache.c +++ b/src/backend/utils/cache/catcache.c @@ -8,7 +8,7 @@ * * * IDENTIFICATION - * $PostgreSQL: pgsql/src/backend/utils/cache/catcache.c,v 1.133 2006/10/04 00:30:00 momjian Exp $ + * $PostgreSQL: pgsql/src/backend/utils/cache/catcache.c,v 1.134 2006/10/06 18:23:35 tgl Exp $ * *------------------------------------------------------------------------- */ @@ -976,7 +976,7 @@ CatalogCacheInitializeCache(CatCache *cache) cache->cc_skey[i].sk_strategy = BTEqualStrategyNumber; cache->cc_skey[i].sk_subtype = InvalidOid; - CACHE4_elog(DEBUG2, "CatalogCacheInit %s %d %p", + CACHE4_elog(DEBUG2, "CatalogCacheInitializeCache %s %d %p", cache->cc_relname, i, cache); @@ -991,18 +991,20 @@ CatalogCacheInitializeCache(CatCache *cache) /* * InitCatCachePhase2 -- external interface for CatalogCacheInitializeCache * - * The only reason to call this routine is to ensure that the relcache - * has created entries for all the catalogs and indexes referenced by - * catcaches.
