An ALTER TABLE to validate a foreign key in which another subcommand already caused a pending table rewrite could fail due to ALTER TABLE attempting to validate the foreign key before the actual table rewrite takes place. This situation could result in an error such as: ERROR: could not read block 0 in file "base/nnnnn/nnnnn": read only 0 of 8192 bytes The failure here was due to the SPI call which validates the foreign key trying to access an index which is yet to be rebuilt. Similarly, we also incorrectly tried to validate CHECK constraints before the heap had been rewritten. The fix for both is to delay constraint validation until phase 3, after the table has been rewritten. For CHECK constraints this means a slight behavioral change. Previously ALTER TABLE VALIDATE CONSTRAINT on inheritance tables would be validated from the bottom up. This was different from the order of evaluation when a new CHECK constraint was added. The changes made here aligns the VALIDATE CONSTRAINT evaluation order for inheritance tables to be the same as ADD CONSTRAINT, which is generally top-down.

PostgreSQL Database Management System ===================================== This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL database management system. PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types and functions. This distribution also contains C language bindings. PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here: https://www.postgresql.org/download/ See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install PostgreSQL. That file also lists supported operating systems and hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL system. Copyright and license information can be found in the file COPYRIGHT. A comprehensive documentation set is included in this distribution; it can be read as described in the installation instructions. The latest version of this software may be obtained at https://www.postgresql.org/download/. For more information look at our web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
