This function leaked some memory while loading qual clauses for an RLS policy. While ordinarily negligible, that could build up in some repeated-reload cases, as reported by Konstantin Knizhnik. We can improve matters by borrowing the coding long used in RelationBuildRuleLock: build stringToNode's result directly in the target context, and remember to explicitly pfree the input string. This patch by no means completely guarantees zero leaks within this function, since we have no real guarantee that the catalog- reading subroutines it calls don't leak anything. However, practical tests suggest that this is enough to resolve the issue. In any case, any remaining leaks are similar to those risked by RelationBuildRuleLock and other relcache-loading subroutines. If we need to fix them, we should adopt a more global approach such as that used by the RECOVER_RELATION_BUILD_MEMORY hack. While here, let's remove the need for an expensive PG_TRY block by using MemoryContextSetParent to reparent an initially-short-lived context for the RLS data. Back-patch to all supported branches.

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/.
