It failed if passed a nonexistent relation OID, or one that was a non-heap relation, because of blindly applying heap_open to a user-supplied OID. This is not OK behavior for a SQL-exposed function; we have a project policy that we should return NULL in such cases. Moreover, since pg_get_partition_constraintdef ought now to work on indexes, restricting it to heaps is flat wrong anyway. The underlying function generate_partition_qual() wasn't on board with indexes having partition quals either, nor for that matter with rels having relispartition set but yet null relpartbound. (One wonders whether the person who wrote the function comment blocks claiming that these functions allow a missing relpartbound had ever tested it.) Fix by testing relispartition before opening the rel, and by using relation_open not heap_open. (If any other relkinds ever grow the ability to have relispartition set, the code will work with them automatically.) Also, don't reject null relpartbound in generate_partition_qual. Back-patch to v11, and all but the null-relpartbound change to v10. (It's not really necessary to change generate_partition_qual at all in v10, but I thought s/heap_open/relation_open/ would be a good idea anyway just to keep the code in sync with later 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/.
