The "TRUNCATE table while we're holding references to it" bug (3883), is
causing an assertion failure on 8.2, when the TRUNCATE is called in a
trigger:
Script:
CREATE TABLE proc(n int);
INSERT INTO proc VALUES (9);
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION deltrig() RETURNS trigger LANGUAGE plpgsql AS $$
BEGIN EXECUTE 'TRUNCATE TABLE proc'; RETURN OLD;
end;
$$;
CREATE TRIGGER trg_proc BEFORE DELETE ON PROC FOR EACH ROW EXECUTE
PROCEDURE deltrig();
DELETE FROM proc WHERE n=9;
Error message:
TRAP: FailedAssertion("!(( ((void) ((bool) ((! assert_enabled) || !
(!(((void*)(lp) != ((void *)0)))) ||
(ExceptionalCondition("!(((void*)(lp) != ((void *)0)))",
("FailedAssertion"), "heapam.c", 1595))))), (bool) (((lp)->lp_flags &
0x01) != 0) ))", File: "heapam.c", Line: 1595)
With assertions disabled, you get an "attempted to delete invisible
tuple" error, but it seems like good luck that it doesn't lead to a crash.
I think we need to backpatch the fix for this...
