Hi, While studying and hacking on the parenting constraint issue, I found an incoherent piece of code leading to badly chosen fk name. If a constraint name collision is detected, while choosing a new name for the constraint, the code uses fkconstraint->fk_attrs which is not yet populated:
/* No dice. Set up to create our own constraint */ fkconstraint = makeNode(Constraint); if (ConstraintNameIsUsed(CONSTRAINT_RELATION, RelationGetRelid(partRel), NameStr(constrForm->conname))) fkconstraint->conname = ChooseConstraintName(RelationGetRelationName(partRel), ChooseForeignKeyConstraintNameAddition( fkconstraint->fk_attrs), // <= WOO000OPS "fkey", RelationGetNamespace(partRel), NIL); else fkconstraint->conname = pstrdup(NameStr(constrForm->conname)); fkconstraint->fk_upd_action = constrForm->confupdtype; fkconstraint->fk_del_action = constrForm->confdeltype; fkconstraint->deferrable = constrForm->condeferrable; fkconstraint->initdeferred = constrForm->condeferred; fkconstraint->fk_matchtype = constrForm->confmatchtype; for (int i = 0; i < numfks; i++) { Form_pg_attribute att; att = TupleDescAttr(RelationGetDescr(partRel), mapped_conkey[i] - 1); fkconstraint->fk_attrs = lappend(fkconstraint->fk_attrs, // <= POPULATING makeString(NameStr(att->attname))); } The following SQL script showcase the bad constraint name: DROP TABLE IF EXISTS parent, child1; CREATE TABLE parent ( id bigint NOT NULL default 1, no_part smallint NOT NULL, id_abc bigint, CONSTRAINT dummy_constr FOREIGN KEY (id_abc, no_part) REFERENCES parent(id, no_part) ON UPDATE RESTRICT ON DELETE RESTRICT, PRIMARY KEY (id, no_part) ) PARTITION BY LIST (no_part); CREATE TABLE child1 ( id bigint NOT NULL default 1, no_part smallint NOT NULL, id_abc bigint, PRIMARY KEY (id, no_part), CONSTRAINT dummy_constr CHECK ((no_part = 1)) ); ALTER TABLE parent ATTACH PARTITION child1 FOR VALUES IN ('1'); SELECT conname FROM pg_constraint WHERE conrelid = 'child1'::regclass AND contype = 'f'; DROP TABLE CREATE TABLE CREATE TABLE ALTER TABLE conname -------------- child1__fkey (1 row) The resulting constraint name "child1__fkey" is missing the attributes name the original code wanted to add. The expected name is "child1_id_abc_no_part_fkey". Find in attachment a simple fix, moving the name assignation after the FK attributes are populated. Regards,

The resulting constraint name was a strange "<relname>__fkey" instead of "<relname>_<attrs>_fkey". --- src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c | 20 ++++++++++---------- 1 file changed, 10 insertions(+), 10 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c b/src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c index dacc989d85..53b0f3a9c1 100644 --- a/src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c +++ b/src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c @@ -10304,16 +10304,6 @@ CloneFkReferencing(List **wqueue, Relation parentRel, Relation partRel) /* No dice.
