[PATCH v50 4/8] Fix a few problems in index build progress reporting. 92+ messages / 2 participants [nested] [flat]
* [PATCH v50 4/8] Fix a few problems in index build progress reporting. @ 2026-03-27 15:50 Álvaro Herrera <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Álvaro Herrera @ 2026-03-27 15:50 UTC (permalink / raw) First, index_build() should not update the progress when being driven by REPACK, because the progress reporting infractructure cannot handle status of two commands at the same time. So far, REPACK with the CONCURRENTLY option neglected this problem altogether, but even the existing REPACK wasn't consistent enough: even if the 'progress' variable in repack_index() was false, it didn't pass the value to index_build(). Second, REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) should not set PROGRESS_REPACK_PHASE to PROGRESS_REPACK_PHASE_FINAL_CLEANUP in rebuild_relation() because it calls finish_heap_swap() anyway (via rebuild_relation_finish_concurrent()), which does the same thing. --- src/backend/bootstrap/bootstrap.c | 2 +- src/backend/catalog/heap.c | 3 ++- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 22 ++++++++++++++++++---- src/backend/catalog/toasting.c | 3 ++- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 1 + src/include/catalog/index.h | 4 +++- 6 files changed, 27 insertions(+), 8 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/bootstrap/bootstrap.c b/src/backend/bootstrap/bootstrap.c index 38ef683d4c7..60fb7051830 100644 --- a/src/backend/bootstrap/bootstrap.c +++ b/src/backend/bootstrap/bootstrap.c @@ -1183,7 +1183,7 @@ build_indices(void) heap = table_open(ILHead->il_heap, NoLock); ind = index_open(ILHead->il_ind, NoLock); - index_build(heap, ind, ILHead->il_info, false, false); + index_build(heap, ind, ILHead->il_info, false, false, false); index_close(ind, NoLock); table_close(heap, NoLock); diff --git a/src/backend/catalog/heap.c b/src/backend/catalog/heap.c index 5748aa9a1a9..ae6b7cda3dd 100644 --- a/src/backend/catalog/heap.c +++ b/src/backend/catalog/heap.c @@ -3570,7 +3570,8 @@ RelationTruncateIndexes(Relation heapRelation) /* Initialize the index and rebuild */ /* Note: we do not need to re-establish pkey setting */ - index_build(heapRelation, currentIndex, indexInfo, true, false); + index_build(heapRelation, currentIndex, indexInfo, true, false, + true); /* We're done with this index */ index_close(currentIndex, NoLock); diff --git a/src/backend/catalog/index.c b/src/backend/catalog/index.c index e418d67e8e4..4b8ed2c7660 100644 --- a/src/backend/catalog/index.c +++ b/src/backend/catalog/index.c @@ -715,6 +715,9 @@ UpdateIndexRelation(Oid indexoid, * already exists. * INDEX_CREATE_PARTITIONED: * create a partitioned index (table must be partitioned) + * INDEX_CREATE_REPORT_PROGRESS: + * update the backend's progress information during index build. + * constr_flags: flags passed to index_constraint_create * (only if INDEX_CREATE_ADD_CONSTRAINT is set) * allow_system_table_mods: allow table to be a system catalog @@ -760,6 +763,7 @@ index_create(Relation heapRelation, bool invalid = (flags & INDEX_CREATE_INVALID) != 0; bool concurrent = (flags & INDEX_CREATE_CONCURRENT) != 0; bool partitioned = (flags & INDEX_CREATE_PARTITIONED) != 0; + bool progress = (flags & INDEX_CREATE_REPORT_PROGRESS) != 0; char relkind; TransactionId relfrozenxid; MultiXactId relminmxid; @@ -1276,7 +1280,8 @@ index_create(Relation heapRelation, } else { - index_build(heapRelation, indexRelation, indexInfo, false, true); + index_build(heapRelation, indexRelation, indexInfo, false, true, + progress); } /* @@ -1448,6 +1453,12 @@ index_create_copy(Relation heapRelation, bool concurrently, stattargets[i].isnull = isnull; } + /* + * Note: The current callers do not need INDEX_CREATE_REPORT_PROGRESS.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-06-16 11:54 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-06-16 11:54 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-06-16 11:54 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-06-16 11:54 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-06-16 11:54 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-06-16 11:54 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-06-16 11:54 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-06-16 11:54 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-06-16 11:54 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-06-16 11:54 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-06-16 11:54 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-06-16 11:54 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-06-16 11:54 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-06-16 11:54 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-06-16 11:54 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-06-16 11:54 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-06-16 11:54 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-06-16 11:54 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-06-16 11:54 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-06-16 11:54 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-06-16 11:54 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-06-16 11:54 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-06-16 11:54 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-06-16 11:54 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-06-16 11:54 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-06-16 11:54 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-06-16 11:54 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-06-16 11:54 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-06-16 11:54 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-06-16 11:54 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-06-16 11:54 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-06-16 11:54 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-06-16 11:54 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-06-16 11:54 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-06-16 11:54 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-06-16 11:54 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-06-16 11:54 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-06-16 11:54 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-06-16 11:54 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-06-16 11:54 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-06-16 11:54 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-06-16 11:54 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-06-16 11:54 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-06-16 11:54 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-06-16 11:54 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-06-16 11:54 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-06-16 11:54 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-06-16 11:54 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-06-16 11:54 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-06-16 11:54 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-06-16 11:54 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-06-16 11:54 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-06-16 11:54 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-06-16 11:54 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-06-16 11:54 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-06-16 11:54 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-06-16 11:54 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-06-16 11:54 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-06-16 11:54 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-06-16 11:54 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-06-16 11:54 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-06-16 11:54 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-06-16 11:54 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-06-16 11:54 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-06-16 11:54 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-06-16 11:54 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-06-16 11:54 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-06-16 11:54 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-06-16 11:54 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-06-16 11:54 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-06-16 11:54 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-06-16 11:54 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-06-16 11:54 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-06-16 11:54 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-06-16 11:54 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-06-16 11:54 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-06-16 11:54 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-06-16 11:54 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-06-16 11:54 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-06-16 11:54 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-06-16 11:54 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-06-16 11:54 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-06-16 11:54 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-06-16 11:54 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-06-16 11:54 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-06-16 11:54 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-06-16 11:54 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-06-16 11:54 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-06-16 11:54 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-06-16 11:54 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-07-15 08:37 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-07-15 08:37 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-07-15 08:37 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-07-15 08:37 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-07-15 08:37 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-07-15 08:37 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-07-15 08:37 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-07-15 08:37 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-07-15 08:37 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-07-15 08:37 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-07-15 08:37 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-07-15 08:37 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-07-15 08:37 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-07-15 08:37 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-07-15 08:37 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-07-15 08:37 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-07-15 08:37 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-07-15 08:37 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-07-15 08:37 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-07-15 08:37 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-07-15 08:37 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-07-15 08:37 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-07-15 08:37 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-07-15 08:37 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-07-15 08:37 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-07-15 08:37 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-07-15 08:37 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-07-15 08:37 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-07-15 08:37 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-07-15 08:37 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-07-15 08:37 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-07-15 08:37 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-07-15 08:37 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-07-15 08:37 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-07-15 08:37 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-07-15 08:37 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-07-15 08:37 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-07-15 08:37 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-07-15 08:37 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-07-15 08:37 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-07-15 08:37 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-07-15 08:37 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-07-15 08:37 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-07-15 08:37 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-07-15 08:37 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-07-15 08:37 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-07-15 08:37 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-07-15 08:37 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-07-15 08:37 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-07-15 08:37 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-07-15 08:37 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-07-15 08:37 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-07-15 08:37 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-07-15 08:37 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-07-15 08:37 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-07-15 08:37 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-07-15 08:37 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-07-15 08:37 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-07-15 08:37 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-07-15 08:37 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-07-15 08:37 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-07-15 08:37 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-07-15 08:37 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-07-15 08:37 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-07-15 08:37 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-07-15 08:37 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-07-15 08:37 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-07-15 08:37 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-07-15 08:37 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-07-15 08:37 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-07-15 08:37 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-07-15 08:37 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-07-15 08:37 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-07-15 08:37 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-07-15 08:37 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-07-15 08:37 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-07-15 08:37 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-07-15 08:37 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-07-15 08:37 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-07-15 08:37 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-07-15 08:37 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-07-15 08:37 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-07-15 08:37 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-07-15 08:37 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-07-15 08:37 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-07-15 08:37 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-07-15 08:37 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-07-15 08:37 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-07-15 08:37 Antonin Houska <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 92+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-07-15 08:37 UTC (permalink / raw) Whenever we expect possible execution of index functions, we need to make sure that they execute with the appropriate privileges. Also, the core should not see (and use) values of GUC parameters introduced by the index functions. This patch introduces functions enable_index_build_security() and disable_index_build_security() which make the security measures less verbose. It's needed for the upcoming enhancements of REPACK (CONCURRENTLY), but looks like useful refactoring anyway. --- src/backend/access/brin/brin.c | 32 ++++---------- src/backend/catalog/index.c | 72 ++++++++++++++++++-------------- src/backend/commands/analyze.c | 21 +++------- src/backend/commands/indexcmds.c | 49 +++++++--------------- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 24 +++-------- src/backend/commands/vacuum.c | 23 +++------- src/include/catalog/index.h | 10 +++++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 + 9 files changed, 95 insertions(+), 161 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c index bdb30752e09..2359bffa518 100644 --- a/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c +++ b/src/backend/access/brin/brin.c @@ -1391,10 +1391,8 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) Oid heapoid; Relation indexRel; Relation heapRel; - Oid save_userid; - int save_sec_context; - int save_nestlevel; double numSummarized = 0; + IndexBuildSecurity ibsec; if (RecoveryInProgress()) ereport(ERROR, @@ -1420,27 +1418,12 @@ brin_summarize_range(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) heapRel = table_open(heapoid, ShareUpdateExclusiveLock); /* - * Autovacuum calls us.
