Hi Amit.

Rushabh Lathia
I gone through the mail thread discussion regarding this issue and reviewed you patch.
-- Patch get applied cleanly on Master branch
-- Make and Make Install fine
-- make check also running cleanly
In the patch code changes looks good to me.
This patch having two part:
1) Allowed TableOid system column in the CHECK constraint
2) Throw an error if other then TableOid system column in CHECK constraint.
I noticed that you added test coverage for 1) but the test coverage for 2) is missing..
I added the test coverage for 2) in the attached patch.
Marking this as Ready for committer.
Regards,
Rushabh

I had rebased the patch against head and added the test case to validate it.
I will upload this patch to commit fest.

>> Marking this as Ready for committer. > > Thanks a ton for reviewing the patch. I rewrote the comments for this patch and fixed the incorrect formatting in parse_relation.c. It used spaces instead of tabs, which is why if you look at the patch file you'll see that the alignment looked off. See new version, attached. However, I have a few residual questions: 1. Does copy.c also need to be fixed? I see that it also calls ExecConstraints(), and I don't see it setting tableOid anywhere. We certainly want COPY and INSERT to behave the same way. 2. Should constraints also allow access to the "oid" column? Right now you can do that but it doesn't seem to work, e.g.: rhaas=# create table foo (a int, check (oid::integer % 2 = 0)) with oids; CREATE TABLE rhaas=# insert into foo values (1); INSERT 16404 1 rhaas=# insert into foo values (1); INSERT 16405 1 rhaas=# insert into foo values (1); INSERT 16406 1 rhaas=# select oid, * from foo; oid | a -------+--- 16404 | 1 16405 | 1 16406 | 1 (3 rows) Just prohibiting that might be fine; it doesn't seem that useful anyway. But if we're setting the table OID, maybe we should set the OID too, and then just allow this. -- Robert Haas EnterpriseDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company

I have missed it by confusing it with OID, as OID is set in COPY. I think along with COPY, it needs to set in ATRewriteTable() as well, because during rewrite also we check constraints.

Currently only tableOid is allowed, other system columns should error out due to below check: + /* In constraint check, no system column is allowed except tableOid */ + if (pstate->p_expr_kind == EXPR_KIND_CHECK_CONSTRAINT && + attnum < InvalidAttrNumber && attnum != TableOidAttributeNumber) > But if we're setting the table OID, maybe we should set the > OID too, and then just allow this. It can be done for OID as well. I don't have any strong reason for either doing or not doing it, if you think it can be of use then we can add it. With Regards, Amit Kapila.

One more thing, I think it will be better to update information in docs, probably in Create Table page where CHECK constraints are explained and where DDL constraints are explained at link: http://www.postgresql.org/docs/devel/static/ddl-constraints.html With Regards, Amit Kapila.

I had tried to allow for OID case, but setting OID in case of UPDATE
operation is bit tricky.
In ExecUpdate(), we need to set OID in new tuple by getting it from
old tuple, but we only have old tupleid in this function. Using old
tupleid, I can get tuple and then fetch OID from it to set in new
tuple as is done in heap_update(), but it seems bit more work and also
same has to be done in heap_update anyway unless we change signature
of heap_update().
For now, I had updated the patch for below points:
a. to set tableoid in Copy case
b. to set tableoid in Alter case
c. update the docs for Create Table Page. The other places like Alter
Table and Constraints page doesn't have any information related to
what is not allowed in
check constraints, so I left them as is.
I have not added new tests for Alter/Copy as they will test what
testcase for insert will test. However if you feel we should add test
for Alter/Copy/Update operation, then I will update the patch.
With Regards,
Amit Kapila.
