Commits 29aeda6e4 et al closed up some oversights involving not checking for non-upgradable types within container types, such as arrays and ranges. However, I only looked at version.c, failing to notice that there were substantially-equivalent tests in check.c. (The division of responsibility between those files is less than clear...) In addition, because genbki.pl does not guarantee that auto-generated rowtype OIDs will hold still across versions, we need to consider that the composite type associated with a system catalog or view is non-upgradable. It seems unlikely that someone would have a user column declared that way, but if they did, trying to read it in another PG version would likely draw "no such pg_type OID" failures, thanks to the type OID embedded in composite Datums. To support the composite and reg*-type cases, extend the recursive query that does the search to allow any base query that returns a column of pg_type OIDs, rather than limiting it to exactly one starting type. As before, back-patch to all supported branches. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/2798740.1619622555@sss.pgh.pa.us
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/.
