[PATCH 1/2] Error out any process that would block at REPACK 604+ messages / 1 participants [nested] [flat]
* [PATCH 1/2] Error out any process that would block at REPACK @ 2026-04-01 15:35 Antonin Houska <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ messages in thread From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-04-01 15:35 UTC (permalink / raw) Any process waiting on REPACK to release its lock would actually cause it to deadlock when it tries to upgrade its lock to AEL, losing all work done to that point. We avoid this by teaching the deadlock detector to raise an error when this condition is detected. --- src/backend/commands/repack.c | 47 ++++++++--- src/backend/storage/lmgr/deadlock.c | 15 ++++ src/include/storage/proc.h | 6 +- src/test/modules/injection_points/Makefile | 1 + .../expected/repack_deadlock.out | 63 ++++++++++++++ src/test/modules/injection_points/meson.build | 1 + .../specs/repack_deadlock.spec | 83 +++++++++++++++++++ 7 files changed, 201 insertions(+), 15 deletions(-) create mode 100644 src/test/modules/injection_points/expected/repack_deadlock.out create mode 100644 src/test/modules/injection_points/specs/repack_deadlock.spec diff --git a/src/backend/commands/repack.c b/src/backend/commands/repack.c index 20dad22c4b7..a5f5df77291 100644 --- a/src/backend/commands/repack.c +++ b/src/backend/commands/repack.c @@ -285,6 +285,18 @@ ExecRepack(ParseState *pstate, RepackStmt *stmt, bool isTopLevel) * to understand and we don't lose any functionality. */ PreventInTransactionBlock(isTopLevel, "REPACK (CONCURRENTLY)"); + + /* + * Also set the PROC_IN_CONCURRENT_REPACK flag.

* [PATCH 5/8] Simplify the way restrictions are imposed on index functions. @ 2026-06-16 11:54 Antonin Houska <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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 <ah@cybertec.at> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 604+ 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.
