Subject: pgsql: Remove redundant privilege check from pg_sequences system view.
Date: Mon, 01 Jul 2024 16:49:44 +0000
Message-ID: <E1sOKDo-003oV8-2s@gemulon.postgresql.org> (raw)

Remove redundant privilege check from pg_sequences system view.

This commit adjusts pg_sequence_last_value() to return NULL instead
of ERROR-ing for sequences for which the current user lacks
privileges.  This allows us to remove the call to
has_sequence_privilege() in the definition of the pg_sequences
system view.

Bumps catversion.
