Hi All,<br /><br /> I noticed that the TidScan fails to identify when the requested block is not in the relation.
Considerthis (pg_class has 6 blocks):<br /><br />postgres=# explain analyze select ctid, * from pg_class where ctid in
('(6,1)' );<br /> ERROR: could not read block 6 of relation 1663/11511/1259: read only 0 of 8192 bytes<br /><br />
Also,it is known that 0 is not a valid row-offset in the block, but the tid input function accepts this value (it
rejects-ve values). For the same setup:<br /><br />postgres=# explain analyze select ctid, * from pg_class where ctid
in( '(6,0)' );<br /> QUERY PLAN
<br/>----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br /> Tid
Scanon pg_class (cost=0.00..4.01 rows=1 width=211) (actual time=0.009..0.009 rows=0 loops=1)<br /> TID Cond: (ctid =
'(6,0)'::tid)<br/> Total runtime: 0.130 ms<br />(3 rows)<br /><br /> Can we safely fix these? First one by ignoring
therequest if requested_block >= RelationGetNumberOfBlocks(), and second one by accepting only non-zero positive
valuesin the tid input function.<br /><br />Best regards<br /><br />-- <br />gurjeet[.singh]@EnterpriseDB.com<br
