Bug reference:      19629
Logged by:          Zheng Hacker
Email address:      hackerzheng666@gmail.com
PostgreSQL version: 19beta3
Operating system:   Linux x86_64
Description:       =20

PostgreSQL version: 20devel (commit bdbf662, 2026-08-19)
  OS: Linux x86_64
 =20
  Four ereport(ERROR, ...) calls in src/backend/statistics/stat_utils.c
  (function stats_fill_fcinfo_from_arg_pairs) are missing errcode(),
  causing user input validation errors to return SQLSTATE XX000
  (internal_error) instead of proper error codes.
 =20
  Reproducers (with \set VERBOSITY verbose):
 =20
  -- 1. Odd number of variadic args (line 372)
  SELECT pg_restore_relation_stats('schemaname', 'stats_import', 'relname');
  -- ERROR: XX000: variadic arguments must be name/value pairs
  -- LOCATION: stats_fill_fcinfo_from_arg_pairs, stat_utils.c:372
 =20
  -- 2. NULL argument name (line 387)
  SELECT pg_restore_relation_stats(
    'schemaname', 'stats_import', 'relname', 'test', NULL, '17'::integer);
  -- ERROR: XX000: name at variadic position 5 is null
  -- LOCATION: stats_fill_fcinfo_from_arg_pairs, stat_utils.c:387
 =20
  -- 3. Wrong argument name type (line 391)
  SELECT pg_restore_relation_stats(42, 'stats_import', 'relname', 'test');
  -- ERROR: XX000: name at variadic position 1 has type integer, expected
type text
  -- LOCATION: stats_fill_fcinfo_from_arg_pairs, stat_utils.c:391
 =20
  A fourth site at line 656 has the same missing errcode pattern.
 =20
  Suggested fix: add errcode() to each ereport call
(ERRCODE_INVALID_PARAMETER_VALUE,
  ERRCODE_NULL_VALUE_NOT_ALLOWED, ERRCODE_DATATYPE_MISMATCH respectively).
 =20
  Found by automated SQL fuzzing.
