Commit 3eb3d3e78 was a few bricks shy of a load: while it correctly set the table's "interesting" flag when deciding to dump the data of an extension config table, it was not correct to clear that flag if we concluded we shouldn't dump the data. This led to the crash reported in bug #16655, because in fact we'll traverse dumpTableSchema anyway for all extension tables (to see if they have user-added seclabels or RLS policies). The right thing to do is to force "interesting" true in makeTableDataInfo, and otherwise leave the flag alone. (Doing it there is more future-proof in case additional calls are added, and it also avoids setting the flag unnecessarily if that function decides the table is non-dumpable.) This investigation also showed that while only the --inserts code path had an obvious failure in the case considered by 3eb3d3e78, the COPY code path also has a problem with not having loaded table subsidiary data. That causes fmtCopyColumnList to silently return an empty string instead of the correct column list. That accidentally mostly works, which perhaps is why we didn't notice this before. It would only fail if the restore column order is different from the dump column order, which only happens in weird inheritance cases, so it's not surprising nobody had hit the case with an extension config table. Nonetheless, it's a bug, and it goes a long way back, not just to v12 where the --inserts code path started to have a problem with this. In hopes of catching such cases a bit sooner in future, add some Asserts that "interesting" has been set in both dumpTableData and dumpTableSchema. Adjust the test case added by 3eb3d3e78 so that it checks the COPY rather than INSERT form of that bug, allowing it to detect the longer-standing symptom. Per bug #16655 from Cameron Daniel. Back-patch to all supported branches. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/16655-5c92d6b3a9438137@postgresql.org Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/18048b44-3414-b983-8c7c-9165b177900d@2ndQuadrant.com
Test extensions and libraries ============================= src/test/modules contains PostgreSQL extensions that are primarily or entirely intended for testing PostgreSQL and/or to serve as example code. The extensions here aren't intended to be installed in a production server and aren't suitable for "real work". Most extensions have their own pg_regress tests or isolationtester specs. Some are also used by tests elsewhere in the tree. If you're adding new hooks or other functionality exposed as C-level API this is where to add the tests for it.
