Subject: BUG #16840: Rows not found in table partitioned by hash when not all partitions exists
Date: Wed, 27 Jan 2021 17:02:21 +0000
Message-ID: <16840-571a22976f829ad4@postgresql.org> (raw)
The following bug has been logged on the website:
Bug reference: 16840
Logged by: MichaĆ Albrycht
Email address: michalalbrycht@gmail.com
PostgreSQL version: 13.1
Operating system: Ubuntu 18
Description:
Lets create a table partitioned by hash:
CREATE TABLE dir (
id SERIAL,
volume_id BIGINT,
path TEXT
) PARTITION BY HASH (volume_id);
Now let's create just one partition:
CREATE TABLE dir_part_2 PARTITION OF dir FOR VALUES WITH (modulus 3,
remainder 2);
Insert sample value:
INSERT INTO dir (volume_id, path) VALUES
(1, 'abc'),
(1, 'def'),
(1, 'ghi');
Queries to verify db state:
SELECT * FROM dir WHERE volume_id=1 AND path='abc'; -- returns 1 row - OK
SELECT * FROM dir WHERE volume_id=1 AND (path='abc' OR path='def') --
returns 0 rows - NOT OK!
SELECT * FROM dir_part_2 WHERE volume_id=1 AND (path='abc' or path='def') --
returns 2 rows - OK
Now lets add missing partitions:
CREATE TABLE dir_part_0 PARTITION OF dir FOR VALUES WITH (modulus 3,
remainder 0);
CREATE TABLE dir_part_1 PARTITION OF dir FOR VALUES WITH (modulus 3,
remainder 1);
And run problematic query one more time:
SELECT * FROM dir WHERE volume_id=1 AND (path='abc' OR path='def') --
returns 2 rows - OK
So Postgres silently fails to find a rows, and does not throw any error when
not all hash partitions are present.
