Обсуждение: [PATCH] Add schema and table names to partition error
Hello, I'm writing telemetry data into a table partitioned by time. When there is no partition for a particular date, my app notices the constraint violation, creates the partition, and retries the insert. I'm used to handling constraint violations by observing the constraint name in the error fields. However, this error had none. I set out to add the name to the error field, but after a bit of reading my impression is that partition constraints are more like a property of a table. I've attached a patch that adds the schema and table name fields to errors for my use case: - Insert data into a partitioned table for which there is no partition. - Insert data directly into an incorrect partition. Thanks, Chris

This makes sense to me. Btree code which implements unique
constraints also does this; see _bt_check_unique() function in
src/backend/access/nbtree/nbtinsert.c:
ereport(ERROR,
(errcode(ERRCODE_UNIQUE_VIOLATION),
errmsg("duplicate key value violates
unique constraint \"%s\"",
RelationGetRelationName(rel)),
key_desc ? errdetail("Key %s already exists.",
key_desc) : 0,
errtableconstraint(heapRel,
RelationGetRelationName(rel))));

Instead of using errtable(), use errtableconstraint() like the btree
code does, if only just for consistency.

There are couple more instances in src/backend/command/tablecmds.c
where partition constraint is checked:
In ATRewriteTable():
if (partqualstate && !ExecCheck(partqualstate, econtext))
{
if (tab->validate_default)
ereport(ERROR,
(errcode(ERRCODE_CHECK_VIOLATION),
errmsg("updated partition constraint for
default partition \"%s\" would be violated by some row",
RelationGetRelationName(oldrel))));
else
ereport(ERROR,
(errcode(ERRCODE_CHECK_VIOLATION),
errmsg("partition constraint of relation
\"%s\" is violated by some row",
RelationGetRelationName(oldrel))));
}
Maybe, better fix these too for completeness.
Thanks,
Amit

Right, if we want to make a change for this, then I think we can once
check all the places where we use error code ERRCODE_CHECK_VIOLATION.
Another thing we might need to see is which of these can be
back-patched. We should also try to write the tests for cases we are
changing even if we don't want to commit those.

There are two relations in the example you give: the index, rel, and the
table, heapRel. It makes sense to me that two error fields be filled in
with those two names.
With partitions, there is no second name because there is no index nor
constraint object. My (very limited) understanding is that partition
"constraints" are entirely contained within pg_class.relpartbound of the
partition.
Are you suggesting that the table name go into the constraint name field
of the error?

Yes, I see this function used when it is a CHECK constraint that is
being violated. In every case the constraint name is passed as the
second argument.
>> There are couple more instances in src/backend/command/tablecmds.c

Done. As there is no named constraint here, I used errtable again.

I've looked at every instance of this. It is used for 1) check
constraints, 2) domain constraints, and 3) partition constraints.
1. errtableconstraint is used with the name of the constraint.
2. errdomainconstraint is used with the name of the constraint except in
one instance which deliberately uses errtablecol.
3. With the attached patch, errtable is used except for one instance in
src/backend/partitioning/partbounds.c described below.
In check_default_partition_contents of
src/backend/partitioning/partbounds.c, the default partition is checked
for any rows that should belong in the partition being added _unless_
the leaf being checked is a foreign table. There are two tables
mentioned in this warning, and I couldn't decide which, if any, deserves
to be in the error fields:
/*
* Only RELKIND_RELATION relations (i.e. leaf
partitions) need to be
* scanned.
*/
if (part_rel->rd_rel->relkind != RELKIND_RELATION)
{
if (part_rel->rd_rel->relkind ==
RELKIND_FOREIGN_TABLE)
ereport(WARNING,
(errcode(ERRCODE_CHECK_VIOLATION),
errmsg("skipped
scanning foreign table \"%s\" which is a partition of default partition
\"%s\"",
RelationGetRelationName(part_rel),
RelationGetRelationName(default_rel))));
if (RelationGetRelid(default_rel) !=
RelationGetRelid(part_rel))
table_close(part_rel, NoLock);
continue;
}

I don't have any opinion on back-patching. Existing tests pass. I wasn't
able to find another test that checks the constraint field of errors.
There's a little bit in the tests for psql, but that is about the the
\errverbose functionality rather than specific errors and their fields.
Here's what I tested:
# CREATE TABLE t1 (i int PRIMARY KEY); INSERT INTO t1 VALUES (1), (1);
# \errverbose
...
CONSTRAINT NAME: t1_pkey
# CREATE TABLE pt1 (x int, y int, PRIMARY KEY (x,y)) PARTITIONED BY
RANGE (y);
# INSERT INTO pt1 VALUES (10,10);
# \errverbose
...
SCHEMA NAME: public
TABLE NAME: pt1
# CREATE TABLE pt1_p1 PARTITION OF pt1 FOR VALUES FROM (1) TO (5);
# INSERT INTO pt1 VALUES (10,10);
# \errverbose
...
SCHEMA NAME: public
TABLE NAME: pt1
# INSERT INTO pt1_p1 VALUES (10,10);
# \errverbose
...
SCHEMA NAME: public
TABLE NAME: pt1_p1
# CREATE TABLE pt1_dp PARTITION OF pt1 DEFAULT;
# INSERT INTO pt1 VALUES (10,10);
# CREATE TABLE pt1_p2 PARTITION OF pt1 FOR VALUES FROM (6) TO (20);
# \errverbose
...
SCHEMA NAME: public
TABLE NAME: pt1_dp

That's a good point. Index constraints are actually named after the
index and vice versa, so it's a totally valid usage of
errtableconstraint().
create table foo (a int unique);
\d foo
Table "public.foo"
Column | Type | Collation | Nullable | Default
--------+---------+-----------+----------+---------
a | integer | | |
Indexes:
"foo_a_key" UNIQUE CONSTRAINT, btree (a)
select conname from pg_constraint where conrelid = 'foo'::regclass;
conname
-----------
foo_a_key
(1 row)
create table bar (a int, constraint a_uniq unique (a));
\d bar
Table "public.bar"
Column | Type | Collation | Nullable | Default
--------+---------+-----------+----------+---------
a | integer | | |
Indexes:
"a_uniq" UNIQUE CONSTRAINT, btree (a)
select conname from pg_constraint where conrelid = 'bar'::regclass;
conname
---------
a_uniq
(1 row)

It's right to say that partition's case cannot really be equated with
unique indexes.

That is correct.

Yes, that's what I was thinking, at least for "partition constraint
violated" errors, but given the above that would be a misleading use
of ErrorData.constraint_name.
Maybe it's not too late to invent a new error code like
ERRCODE_PARTITION_VIOLATION or such, then maybe we can use a
hard-coded name, say, just the string "partition constraint".

It seems strange to see that errcode here or any errcode for that
matter, so we shouldn't really be concerned about this one.

Actually, it's not a bad idea to use \errverbose to test this.

Rather than \errverbose, I simply \set VERBOSITY verbose. I could not find a way to exclude the location field from the output, so those lines will be likely be out of date soon--if not already. I couldn't find a way to exercise the errors in tablecmds.c. Does anyone know how to instigate a table rewrite that would violate partition constraints?

I agree. I expected that and should have made it more clear that I didn't intend for those tests to be committed. Others in the thread suggested I include some form of test, even if it didn't live past review.

Correct. I intend only to test the few calls I'm touching in this thread. It might be worthwhile for someone to perform a more thorough review of existing errors, however. The documentation seems to say that every error in SQLSTATE class 23 has one of these fields filled[1]. The errors in these patches are in that class but lacked any fields.

I'm pretty happy with the way the test turned out, so I've squashed everything into a single patch. I've also convinced myself that the number of integrity errors in the entire codebase is manageable to test. If others think it is worthwhile, I can spend some time over the next week to expand this test approach to cover _all_ SQLSTATE class 23 errors. If so, * Should it be one regression test (file) that discusses the significance of class 23, or * Should it be a few test cases added to the existing test files related to each feature? The former allows the helper function to be defined once, while the latter would repeat it over many files. Thanks, Chris

Please find attached two patches that (1) test all but one reports of integrity violations and (2) attach object names to the handful that lacked them. I decided to include error messages in the tests so that the next person to change the message would be mindful of the attached fields and vice versa. I thought these might be impacted by locale, but `make check LANG=de_DE.utf8` passes for me. Is that command the right way to verify that? With these patches, behavior matches the documentation which states: "[object] names are supplied in separate fields of the error report message so that applications need not try to extract them from the possibly-localized human-readable text of the message.

Also, see, if it applies till 9.5 as I think we should backpatch this. IIUC, this patch is mainly to get the table name, schema name in case of the error paths, so that your application can handle errors in case partition constraint violation, right? -- With Regards, Amit Kapila.

Yes, that is correct. Which also means it doesn't apply to 9.5 (no partitions!) Later in this thread I created a test that covers all integrity violation errors.[1] *That* can be backpatched, if you'd like. For an approach limited to partitions only, I recommend looking at v4 rather than v2 or v3.[2] [1]: https://postgresql.org/message-id/0731def8-978e-0285-04ee-582762729b38%40gmail.com [2]: https://postgresql.org/message-id/7985cf2f-5082-22d9-1bb4-6b280150eeae%40gmail.com Thanks, Chris

I will look into it, but I don't think we need to add the tests for error conditions. Those are good for testing, but I think if we start adding tests for all error conditions, then it might increase the number of tests that are not of very high value. -- With Regards, Amit Kapila.

I have extracted your code changes as a separate patch (see attached) as I am not sure we want to add tests for these cases. This doesn't apply in back-branches, but I think that is small work and we can do that if required. The real question is do we want to back-patch this? Basically, this improves the errors in certain cases by providing additional information that otherwise the user might need to extract from error messages. So, there doesn't seem to be pressing need to back-patch this but OTOH, we have mentioned in docs that we support to display this information for all SQLSTATE class 23 (integrity constraint violation) errors which is not true as we forgot to adhere to that in some parts of code. What do you think? Anybody else has an opinion on whether to back-patch this or not? [1] - https://www.postgresql.org/docs/devel/errcodes-appendix.html -- With Regards, Amit Kapila.

My last pitch to keep the tests: These would be the first and only automated tests that verify errtable, errtableconstraint, etc. > This doesn't apply in back-branches, but I think that is small work > and we can do that if required. It looks like the only failing hunk on REL_12_STABLE is in tablecmds.c. The ereport is near line 5090 there. The partition code has changed quite a bit compared the older branches. ;-) Thanks, Chris

However, I don't feel adding just for this patch is advisable. I suggest you start a new thread for these tests and let us see what others think about them. -- With Regards, Amit Kapila.
