Fix Issue 2256: segmentation fault when calling coalesce function by jrgemignani · Pull Request #2259 · apache/age
Fixed issue 2256: A segmentation fault occurs when calling the coalesce function in PostgreSQL version 17. This likely predates 17 and includes other similar types of "functions". See issues 1124 (PR 1125) and 1303 (PR 1317) for more details. This issue is due to coalesce() being processed differently from other functions. Additionally, greatest() was found to exhibit the same behavior. They were added to the list of types to ignore during the cypher analyze phase. A few others were added: CaseExpr, XmlExpr, ArrayExpr, & RowExpr. Although, I wasn't able to find cases where these caused crashes. Added regression tests. modified: regress/expected/cypher.out modified: regress/sql/cypher.sql modified: src/backend/parser/cypher_analyze.c
