=== Foreign Keys ===
 +
 
 +
We have created a foreign key violation test enviroment. This this enviroment consists of two relations, where the a value in orders depends on a values in the table products. The query that causes our fk constraint failure is:
 +
 
 +
<pre>INSERT INTO orders VALUES(0, 23, 23);</pre>
 +
 
 +
An error gets returned because the constraint was violated. Originally, only the relation name was reported. Our fix qualifies this table with its parent namespace. The error used to look like:
 +
 
 +
<pre>ERROR:  insert or update on table "orders" violates foreign key constraint "orders_product_no_fkey"
 +
DETAIL:  Key (product_no)=(23) is not present in table "products".</pre>
 +
 
 +
<b>Now</b> it looks like:
 +
 
 +
<pre>ERROR:  insert or update on table "public.orders" violates foreign key constraint "orders_product_no_fkey"
 +
DETAIL:  Key (product_no)=(23) is not present in table "products".</pre>
 +
 
 +
=== Everything Else ===
 +
 
 +
While it's pretty easy to check the above case, it's much harder to sweep the entire system recreating errors to test our reformatting.
 +
 
 +
Instead of creating these cases yourself, run
 +
 
 +
<pre>make check</pre>
 +
 
 +
at the root directory to get a diff of the old table names, and the newly formatted table names. The make check will end in error because we have not patched the regression suite.

The bug description on the mailing list seemed to find this fix more tedious than outright difficult. Now that we've seen the fix work, it seems like a good idea to try to figure out all the relevant places to fix.

Postgres Internals

Bryan Purcell Mikio Takizawa CS430, May 2009

We have fix a bug listed on the Postgres TODO list.

Report the schema along table name in a referential failure error message

Described Here

The bug is catagorized in referential integrity, however we have completed a system-wide change so schema names, or namespace names, are reported along with table names in various flavors of errors. We did not have time, however, to patch the regression suite to accept the new code. When the user types make check errors are generated because the newly qualified table printout is not expected.

The following includes some notes from the project along with the procedure for testing.

Notes

get_namespace_name(oid)
  • Returns a character string representing the namespace name.
RelationGetRelationName(relation)
  • Prints out the name of the relation. This function is called directly in the printf of the error message in ri_triggers.c
relation->rd_rel->relnamespace
  • There's a member variable relnamespace in Form_pg_class data type.

It is of type id0, representing a unique namespace identifier. As a first stab, I just replaced the appearance of RelationGetRelationName(relation) with relation->rd_red->relnamespace and when the error occurs this number is printed.

  • fk violation error messages located in:
postgresql-8.3.7/src/backend/utils/adt/ri_triggers.c:

ri_triggers.c houses all cases where fk constraints fail. There are 5 or 6 variations. The primary error message is the same in each case, and a detail section gets more specific about why the constraint blocked the SQL action.

Sample error report generated from an fixed version of ri_triggers.c :

3487                                  errmsg("insert or update on table \"%s\" violates foreign key constraint \"%s\"",
3488                                                 strcat( strcat(get_namespace_name(fk_rel->rd_rel->relnamespace), "."), RelationGetRelationName(fk_rel)), constrname),
3489                                  errdetail("Key (%s)=(%s) is not present in table \"%s\".",
3490                                                    key_names, key_values,
3491                                                   strcat( strcat(get_namespace_name(fk_rel->rd_rel->relnamespace), "."), RelationGetRelationName(fk_rel)))));

Test Environment

Foreign Keys

We have created a foreign key violation test enviroment. This this enviroment consists of two relations, where the a value in orders depends on a values in the table products. The query that causes our fk constraint failure is:

INSERT INTO orders VALUES(0, 23, 23);

An error gets returned because the constraint was violated. Originally, only the relation name was reported. Our fix qualifies this table with its parent namespace. The error used to look like:

ERROR:  insert or update on table "orders" violates foreign key constraint "orders_product_no_fkey"
DETAIL:  Key (product_no)=(23) is not present in table "products".

Now it looks like:

ERROR:  insert or update on table "public.orders" violates foreign key constraint "orders_product_no_fkey"
DETAIL:  Key (product_no)=(23) is not present in table "products".

Everything Else

While it's pretty easy to check the above case, it's much harder to sweep the entire system recreating errors to test our reformatting.

Instead of creating these cases yourself, run

make check

at the root directory to get a diff of the old table names, and the newly formatted table names. The make check will end in error because we have not patched the regression suite.

Automation

The bug description on the mailing list seemed to find this fix more tedious than outright difficult. Now that we've seen the fix work, it seems like a good idea to try to figure out all the relevant places to fix.

Open Questions

  • What's the difference between a tablespace and a namespace? - addressed
  • Is there a way to take a namespace identifier and get a namespace object? - yep. it's a function called get_namespace_name(oid namespace_id)

Notes

  • I skipped table alias. (miki)
