OK, I have completed the patch; attached.
I ran into a little problem, as documented by this comment in
catalog/heap.c:
/*
* Set the type OID to invalid. A dropped attribute's type link
* cannot be relied on (once the attribute is dropped, the type might
* be too). Fortunately we do not need the type row --- the only
* really essential information is the type's typlen and typalign,
* which are preserved in the attribute's attlen and attalign. We set
* atttypid to zero here as a means of catching code that incorrectly
* expects it to be valid.
*/
Basically, drop column zeros pg_attribute.atttypid, and there doesn't
seem to be enough information left in pg_attribute to guess the typid
that, combined with atttypmod, would restore the proper values for
pg_attribute.atttypid and pg_attribute.attalign. Therefore, I just
brute-forced an UPDATE into dump to set the values properly after
dropping the fake TEXT column.
I did a minimal documentation addition by adding something to the
"Notes" section of the manual pages.
Here is what a dump of a table with dropped columns looks like:
--
-- Name: test; Type: TABLE; Schema: public; Owner: postgres; Tablespace:
--
CREATE TABLE test (
x integer,
"........pg.dropped.2........" TEXT
);
ALTER TABLE ONLY test DROP COLUMN "........pg.dropped.2........";
-- For binary upgrade, recreate dropped column's length and alignment.
UPDATE pg_attribute
SET attlen = -1, attalign = 'i'
WHERE attname = '........pg.dropped.2........'
AND attrelid =
(
SELECT oid
FROM pg_class
WHERE relnamespace = (SELECT oid FROM pg_namespace
WHERE nspname = CURRENT_SCHEMA)
AND relname = 'test'
);
ALTER TABLE public.test OWNER TO postgres;
