[PATCH] allow pg_current_logfile() execution under pg_monitor role

От

Hello,

The patch attached fixes an oversight/inconsistency of disallowing the pg_monitor system role to execute pg_current_logfile([text]).

pgwatch3=# create user joe;
CREATE ROLE
pgwatch3=# set role joe;
SET
pgwatch3=> select pg_current_logfile();
ERROR:  permission denied for function pg_current_logfile
pgwatch3=> reset role;
RESET
pgwatch3=# grant pg_monitor to joe;
GRANT ROLE
pgwatch3=# set role joe;
SET
pgwatch3=> select pg_current_logfile();
ERROR:  permission denied for function pg_current_logfile
pgwatch3=> select * FROM pg_ls_logdir();
               name               |   size   |      modification

I think this is reasonable.  We allow pg_monitor to execute functions like
pg_ls_logdir(), so it doesn't seem like much of a stretch to expect it to
have privileges for pg_current_logfile(), too.  Are there any other
functions that pg_monitor ought to have privileges for?

Not that I'm aware of at the moment. This one was found by chance.

Kind regards,

Okay.  I'll plan on committing this in the next few days.

Oh, thanks! I forgot, indeed, to update docs and catalog version! My
bad!
In my defense, I was trying to find tests but I missed
regress/sql/misc_functions.sql somehow.
Now I will know. Thanks again!

Docs, yes, but don't include catversion bumps in submitted patches.
They'll just lead to merge problems when somebody else changes the
current catversion.  We rely on the committer to remember to do this
(which is an imperfect system, but...)

Thanks for the clarification.

+1, I only included it in the patch I posted so that I didn't forget it...
