OK, so this isn't quite right. Consider the following test case: rhaas=# create table x (a int, b int, c int) partition by list (a); CREATE TABLE rhaas=# create table y partition of x for values in (1) partition by list (b); CREATE TABLE rhaas=# create table z partition of y for values in (1); CREATE TABLE rhaas=# insert into y values (2,1,1); INSERT 0 1 The absence of the before-trigger is treated as evidence that z need not revalidate the partition constraint, but actually it (or something) still needs to enforce the part of it that originates from y's ancestors. In short, this patch would reintroduce the bug that was fixed in 39162b2030fb0a35a6bb28dc636b5a71b8df8d1c, and would do so by removing the exact same code that was added (by you!) in that patch. -- Robert Haas EnterpriseDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
