Robert pointed out [1] that the planner fails if we have $SUBJECT,
because tidpath.c can seize on the RLS-derived ctid constraint
instead of the CurrentOfExpr. Since the executor can only handle
CurrentOfExpr in a TidScan's tidquals, that leads to a confusing
runtime error.
Here's a patch for that.
However ... along the way to testing it, I found that you can only
get such an RLS qual to work if it accepts "(InvalidBlockNumber,0)",
because that's what the ctid field will look like in a
not-yet-stored-to-disk tuple. That's sufficiently weird, and so
unduly in bed with undocumented implementation details, that I can't
imagine anyone is actually using such an RLS condition or ever will.
So maybe this is not really worth fixing. Thoughts?
regards, tom lane
