If a postgres_fdw foreign table is a non-locked source relation in an UPDATE, DELETE, or SELECT FOR UPDATE/SHARE, and the query selects its ctid column, the wrong value would be returned if an EvalPlanQual recheck occurred. This happened because the foreign table's result row was copied via the ROW_MARK_COPY code path, and EvalPlanQualFetchRowMarks just unconditionally set the reconstructed tuple's t_self to "invalid". To fix that, we can have EvalPlanQualFetchRowMarks copy the composite datum's t_ctid field, and be sure to initialize that along with t_self when postgres_fdw constructs a tuple to return. If we just did that much then EvalPlanQualFetchRowMarks would start returning "(0,0)" as ctid for all other ROW_MARK_COPY cases, which perhaps does not matter much, but then again maybe it might. The cause of that is that heap_form_tuple, which is the ultimate source of all composite datums, simply leaves t_ctid as zeroes in newly constructed tuples. That seems like a bad idea on general principles: a field that's really not been initialized shouldn't appear to have a valid value. So let's eat the trivial additional overhead of doing "ItemPointerSetInvalid(&(td->t_ctid))" in heap_form_tuple. This closes out our handling of Etsuro Fujita's report that tableoid and ctid weren't correctly set in postgres_fdw EvalPlanQual cases. Along the way we did a great deal of work to improve FDWs' ability to control row locking behavior; which was not wasted effort by any means, but it didn't end up being a fix for this problem because that feature would be too expensive for postgres_fdw to use all the time. Although the fix for the tableoid misbehavior was back-patched, I'm hesitant to do so here; it seems far less likely that people would care about remote ctid than tableoid, and even such a minor behavioral change as this in heap_form_tuple is perhaps best not back-patched. So commit to HEAD only, at least for the moment. Etsuro Fujita, with some adjustments by me
The PostgreSQL contrib tree
---------------------------
This subtree contains porting tools, analysis utilities, and plug-in
features that are not part of the core PostgreSQL system, mainly
because they address a limited audience or are too experimental to be
part of the main source tree. This does not preclude their
usefulness.
User documentation for each module appears in the main SGML
documentation.
When building from the source distribution, these modules are not
built automatically, unless you build the "world" target. You can
also build and install them all by running "make all" and "make
install" in this directory; or to build and install just one selected
module, do the same in that module's subdirectory.
Some directories supply new user-defined functions, operators, or
types. To make use of one of these modules, after you have installed
the code you need to register the new SQL objects in the database
system by executing a CREATE EXTENSION command. In a fresh database,
you can simply do
CREATE EXTENSION module_name;
See the PostgreSQL documentation for more information about this
procedure.
