The following bug has been logged on the website:
Bug reference: 18567
Logged by: Dian Jiang
Email address: jiangdian_m@163.com
PostgreSQL version: 15.0
Operating system: centos
Description:
SQL:
Process A:
psql:
CREATE TABLE test_table (
id SERIAL PRIMARY KEY,
data TEXT
) WITH (fillfactor = 70);
CREATE INDEX test_index ON test_table (data) WITH (fillfactor = 80);
INSERT INTO test_table (data) VALUES ('sample data');
Attach gdb to process A.
In the pg_get_indexdef_worker() function, set a breakpoint at the line
context = deparse_context_for(get_relation_name(indrelid), indrelid); and
then execute the query in Process A:
SELECT pg_get_indexdef(indexrelid) FROM pg_index WHERE indrelid =
'test_table'::regclass;
Process B:
drop index test_table；
----------------------------------------------------------------
The query in process A will result in an error:
postgres:# SELECT pg_get_indexdef(indexrelid) FROM pg_index WHERE indrelid =
'test_table'::regclass;
ERROR: cache lookup failed for attribute l of relation 74580
The reason is that context =
deparse_context_for(get_relation_name(indrelid), indrelid); handles
invalidation messages, leading to cache invalidation
