Re: Trigger causes the server to crash with SEGV - Mailing list pgsql-bugs

I tried it here.  I don't get a crash; I get a rather long delay and
then

psql:vlad.sql:61: NOTICE:  Error occurred while executing PL/pgSQL function sp_loc_parent_check
psql:vlad.sql:61: NOTICE:  line 12 at return
psql:vlad.sql:61: ERROR:  Memory exhausted in AllocSetContextCreate(8192)

which is not too surprising seeing that your function is in an infinite
recursion (chasing the loop 96 -> 15 -> 3 -> 96 that your insert has
created).

It would be interesting to know why your copy SEGV's rather than
recovering gracefully.  Can you provide a debugger backtrace from the
coredump?
