Hi, Andrew B reported this warning off-list: postgres=# SELECT lo_create(41174); lo_create ----------- 41174 (1 row) postgres=# DO $$ BEGIN PERFORM lo_export(41174, '/invalid/path'); EXCEPTION WHEN others THEN RAISE NOTICE 'error: %', sqlerrm; END; $$; NOTICE: error: could not create server file "/invalid/path": No such file or directory WARNING: Snapshot reference leak: Snapshot 0x5634afd61cb8 still referenced DO The code in be_lo_export does this: > > CreateFSContext(); > > /* > * open the inversion object (no need to test for failure) > */ > lobj = inv_open(lobjId, INV_READ, fscxt); > > /* > * open the file to be written to > * > ...

Similarly, the LargeObjectDesc is leaked in 'fscxt', which is a subcontext of TopMemoryContext, but that doesn't generate a warning. I propose the attached patch to fix that. With the patch, we use CurrentMemoryContext and no resource owner for transient LargeObjectDescs that are opened and closed in the same function call. This should be backpatched to all supported versions. This adds an argument to 'inv_open' function, but I don't think there are extensions that use the inv_*() functions directly. inv_api.c relies on close_lo_relation() being called at the end of transaction, so I think an extension would find it hard to use those functions correctly, anyway. - Heikki
