#30054: SQLite doesn't implement cascading flush and breaks available_apps feature. -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: Simon | Owner: Simon Charette Charette | Type: Bug | Status: assigned Component: Testing | Version: master framework | Severity: Normal | Keywords: Triage Stage: Accepted | Has patch: 0 Needs documentation: 0 | Needs tests: 0 Patch needs improvement: 0 | Easy pickings: 0 UI/UX: 0 | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- #30033 started performing constraint checks on schema alteration commits on SQLite and uncovered a data integrity issue of our SQLite backend flushing of data.
When `TransactionTestCase.available_apps` is specfied only the specified apps subset of tested model tables are flushed for performance reasons. Thing is when this happens all rows referring to ''flushed'' table rows must also be flushed as specified by the `DatabaseOperations.sql_flush(allow_cascade)` flag that SQLite completely ignores. This issue has been around since foreign keys were enabled on SQLite because `execute_sql_flush` happens to disable constraint checks and allow foreign key integrity to be silently broken. In order to address this issue `sql_flush` must consider `allow_cascade` and `execute_sql_flush` should stop disabling constraints.
