Subject: pgsql: Avoid SIGSEGV in pg_get_database_ddl() on NULL tablespace
Date: Thu, 30 Apr 2026 14:52:33 +0000
Message-ID: <E1wISki-003TMJ-31@gemulon.postgresql.org> (raw)

Avoid SIGSEGV in pg_get_database_ddl() on NULL tablespace

There is a narrow race in which a concurrent ALTER DATABASE ... SET
TABLESPACE moves the database off the tablespace and a DROP TABLESPACE
removes it between the syscache lookup and the catalog scan. If that
happens, output an error.
