We were using CurrentMemoryContext to put the partsupfunc fmgr_info into, which isn't right, because we want the PartitionKey as a whole to be in the isolated Relation->rd_partkeycxt context. This can cause a crash with user-defined support functions in the operator classes used by partitioning keys. (Maybe this can cause problems with core-supplied opclasses too, not sure.) This is demonstrably broken in Postgres 10, too, but the initial proposed fix runs afoul of a problem discussed back when 8a0596cb656e ("Get rid of copy_partition_key") reorganized that code: namely that it is possible to jump out of RelationBuildPartitionKey because of some error and leave a dangling memory context child of CacheMemoryContext. Also, while reviewing this I noticed that the removed-in-pg11 copy_partition_key was doing something wrong, unfixed in pg10, namely doing memcpy() on the FmgrInfo, which is bogus (should be doing fmgr_info_copy). Therefore, in branch pg10, the sane fix seems to be to backpatch both the aforementioned 8a0596cb656e and its followup be2343221fb7 ("Protect against hypothetical memory leaks in RelationGetPartitionKey"), so do that, then apply the fmgr_info memcxt bugfix on top. Add a test case exercising btree-based custom operator classes, which causes a crash prior to this fix. This is not a security problem, because in order to create an operator class you need superuser privileges anyway.

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/.
