Thank you for spotting this. This seems like a missing check. I'm going to get a closer look at this tomorrow.
Thanks! There is also an anomaly with the MERGE command: CREATE TABLE t1 (i int, a int, b int, c int) PARTITION BY RANGE (a, b); CREATE TABLE t1p1 PARTITION OF t1 FOR VALUES FROM (1, 1) TO (1, 2); CREATE TABLE t2 (i int, t text) PARTITION BY RANGE (t); CREATE TABLE t2pa PARTITION OF t2 FOR VALUES FROM ('A') TO ('C'); CREATE TABLE t3 (i int, t text); ALTER TABLE t2 MERGE PARTITIONS (t1p1, t2pa, t3) INTO t2p; leads to: ERROR: partition bound for relation "t3" is null WARNING: problem in alloc set PortalContext: detected write past chunk end in block 0x55f1ef42f820, chunk 0x55f1ef42ff40 WARNING: problem in alloc set PortalContext: detected write past chunk end in block 0x55f1ef42f820, chunk 0x55f1ef42ff40 (I'm also not sure that the error message is clear enough (can't we say "relation X is not a partition of relation Y" in this context, as in MarkInheritDetached(), for example?).) Whilst with ALTER TABLE t2 MERGE PARTITIONS (t1p1, t2pa) INTO t2p; I get: Program terminated with signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. #0 pg_detoast_datum_packed (datum=0x1) at fmgr.c:1866 1866 if (VARATT_IS_COMPRESSED(datum) || VARATT_IS_EXTERNAL(datum)) (gdb) bt #0 pg_detoast_datum_packed (datum=0x1) at fmgr.c:1866 #1 0x000055d77d00fde2 in bttextcmp (...) at ../../../../src/include/postgres.h:314 #2 0x000055d77d03fa27 in FunctionCall2Coll (...) at fmgr.c:1161 #3 0x000055d77ce1572f in partition_rbound_cmp (...) at partbounds.c:3525 #4 0x000055d77ce157b9 in qsort_partition_rbound_cmp (...) at partbounds.c:3816 #5 0x000055d77d0982ef in qsort_arg (...) at ../../src/include/lib/sort_template.h:316 #6 0x000055d77ce1d109 in calculate_partition_bound_for_merge (...) at partbounds.c:5786 #7 0x000055d77cc24b2b in transformPartitionCmdForMerge (...) at parse_utilcmd.c:3524 #8 0x000055d77cc2b555 in transformAlterTableStmt (...) at parse_utilcmd.c:3812 #9 0x000055d77ccab17c in ATParseTransformCmd (...) at tablecmds.c:5650 #10 0x000055d77ccafd09 in ATExecCmd (...) at tablecmds.c:5589 ...
