When a stored expression depends on a user-defined cast, the backend records the dependency as being on the cast's implementation function --- or indeed, if there's no cast function involved but just RelabelType or CoerceViaIO, no dependency is recorded at all. This is problematic for pg_dump, which is at risk of dumping things in the wrong order leading to restore failures. Given the lack of previous reports, the risk isn't that high, but it can be demonstrated if the cast is used in some view whose rowtype is then used as an input or result type for some other function. (That results in the view getting hoisted into the functions portion of the dump, ahead of the cast.) A logically bulletproof fix for this would require including the cast's OID in the parsed form of the expression, whence it could be extracted by dependency.c, and then the stored dependency would force pg_dump to do the right thing. Such a change would be fairly invasive, and certainly not back-patchable. Moreover, since we'd prefer that an expression using cast syntax be equal() to one doing the same thing by explicit function call, the cast OID field would have to have special ignored-by-comparisons semantics, making things messy. So, let's instead fix this by a very simple hack in pg_dump: change the object-type priority order so that casts are initially sorted before functions, immediately after types. This fixes the problem in a fairly direct way for casts that have no implementation function. For those that do, the implementation function will be hoisted to just before the cast by the dependency sorting step, so that we still have a valid dump order. (I'm not sure that this provides a full guarantee of no problems; but since it's been like this for many years without any previous reports, this is probably enough to fix it in practice.) Per report from Дмитрий Иванов. Back-patch to all supported branches. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/CAPL5KHoGa3uvyKp6z6m48LwCnTsK+LRQ_mcA4uKGfqAVSEjV_A@mail.gmail.com |

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/.
