The following bug has been logged on the website:

Bug reference: 18719
Logged by: Daniels Evan
Email address: xliudut@gmail.com
PostgreSQL version: 16.5
Operating system: linux CentOS 7
Description:

In the recently released REL_16_6 version, this patch (“For inplace update
durability, make heap_update() callers wait”) has an issue that causes
abnormal WARNING related to tablespace access.

The reproduction steps are as follows: after compiling the code with this
patch, execute the following script:

CREATE ROLE grantee_test_another LOGIN;

-- Assuming this path is valid
\! mkdir -p /tmp/tablespace
CREATE TABLESPACE tablespace_test_a OWNER granter_test LOCATION
'/tmp/tablespace';

-- Disconnect and then reconnect, then execute this SQL
GRANT ALL ON TABLESPACE tablespace_test_a to grantee_test_another;

-- The following error is expected
postgres=# GRANT ALL ON TABLESPACE tablespace_test_a to
grantee_test_another;
WARNING: you don't own a lock of type ExclusiveLock
WARNING: tuple lock held at commit
GRANT
I conducted an initial investigation and found that the cause of this issue
is the newly introduced function in the patch (SearchSysCacheLocked1), which
has a problem:

Oid dboid =
SysCache[cacheId]->cc_relisshared ? InvalidOid : MyDatabaseId;

When dealing with a TABLESPACE object, it incorrectly determines that
MyDatabaseId exists and attaches it. As a result, during the LockAcquire
phase, the LockTag is set to (5,1213,0,16), and during
UnlockTuple->LockRelease, the LockTag becomes (0,1213,0,16).

Below is a snippet of the log I printed during the verification of the
issue:

$tmp_polardb_pg_16_base/bin/psql
psql (16.6)
Type "help" for help.

postgres=# GRANT ALL ON TABLESPACE tablespace_test_a to
grantee_test_another;

Commit postgr.es/c/4ba84de fixed this. I became aware of your report only
now, but it contained a great level of detail. Thanks for writing it.
