Oops. I missed it in "describe.c" because I grepped for exact "::name" string.

Thank you very much!

Yeah, there are quite a few unqualified casts in pg_dump, but AFAICS
all the rest are OK because the search_path is just pg_catalog.

But I did find psql's describe.c making a similar mistake :-(.
Pushed that along with your fix.

OK, just for convenience I'm attaching your version of the fix.
I left an other "NULL::name AS rolname" at
src/bin/pg_dump/pg_dump.c:2978 because can't check (remoteVersion <
9) it and it is under strict "selectSourceSchema(fout,
"pg_catalog");" schema set.

Good catch, but I think we could simplify this by just omitting the cast
altogether:

- "SELECT 'bigint'::name AS 
sequence_type, "
+ "SELECT 'bigint' AS 
sequence_type, 

pg_dump doesn't particularly care whether the column comes back marked
as 'name' or 'text' or 'unknown'.

[HACKERS] Fix dumping pre-10 DBs by pg_dump10 if table "name" exists

2017-10-31 Thread Vitaly Burovoy
Hello, hackers!

Recently my colleagues found a bug.
They could not migrate from PG9.5 to PG10 due to error during
pg_upgrage (the same as in the "reproduce" part below).
An investigation showed there is a table "name" in the same schema
where the dumped sequence is located and the PG tries to unpack the
literal "bigint" as a composite type and fails.

The bug was introduced by two commits, one of them changes
search_path, the second one introduces the "'bigint'::name"
without specifying schema:
da4d1c0c15ab9afdfeee8bad9a1a9989b6bd59b5 pg_dump: Fix some schema
issues when dumping sequences
2ea5b06c7a7056dca0af1610aadebe608fbcca08 Add CREATE SEQUENCE AS  clause

Steps to reproduce:
$ psql -h pre-10 postgres
Password for user postgres:
psql (11devel, server 9.5.8)
Type "help" for help.

postgres=# create table name(id serial);
CREATE TABLE
postgres=# \q

$ pg_dump -h pre-10 postgres
pg_dump: [archiver (db)] query failed: ERROR:  malformed record
literal: "bigint"
LINE 1: SELECT 'bigint'::name AS sequence_type, start_value, increme...
   ^
DETAIL:  Missing left parenthesis.
pg_dump: [archiver (db)] query was: SELECT 'bigint'::name AS
sequence_type, start_value, increment_by, max_value, min_value,
cache_value, is_cycled FROM name_id_seq


I've implemented a little fix (attached), don't think there is
something to be written to docs and tests.
