Overflow on primary key with negative values; crashes QGIS when editing

Description

This is a recent issue with QGIS 2.12.1-Lyon (16760fd) on Windows 7 via OSGeo4W x64. I can reproduce the behaviour with any version of PostGIS, but have not tested other data providers.

Create a simple PostGIS table:

CREATE table my_lines(gid integer primary key, col integer);
SELECT AddGeometryColumn('my_lines', 'geom', 4326, 'MULTILINESTRING', 2);

INSERT INTO my_lines(gid, col, geom)
SELECT -1, 2, 'SRID=4326;MULTILINESTRING((0 0, 1 1))';

Note that the primary key has a negative value -1, which should be completely fine and previous versions of QGIS were OK with this.

This table can be added to QGIS, which shows the simple geometry on the main canvas normally, and the Layer properties correctly describes both gid and col fields as int4.

However, the attribute table shows the values of gid and col as ERROR, and clicking the feature with the Identify Features tool show gid of 4294967295, which is the overflow version of an unsigned integer value -1. Perhaps the primary key was internally cast in QGIS to unsigned long?

Editing the layer, e.g. with the Node tool, crashes QGIS when the geometry is clicked. A minidump is written the a temporary location, and is available on request.

History

#1 Updated by Sandro Santilli about 8 years ago

  • Crashes QGIS or corrupts data changed from Yes to No
  • Status changed from Open to In Progress
  • Assignee set to Sandro Santilli
  • Operating System changed from Windows 7 to Windows 7, Ubuntu 14.04 64bit

Confirmed with current master (2.14.0dev, 964ae1f) on Linux 64bit -- but it doesn't cause crash or corruption, right ?

#2 Updated by Sandro Santilli about 8 years ago

  • Affected QGIS version changed from 2.12.0 to master
  • Target version changed from Future Release - High Priority to Version 2.14

#3 Updated by Sandro Santilli about 8 years ago

Mike what's the latest version still working, to help bisect ?

#4 Updated by Sandro Santilli about 8 years ago

final-2_12_0 is already bogus

#5 Updated by Sandro Santilli about 8 years ago

final-2_10_1 is already broken

#6 Updated by Sandro Santilli about 8 years ago

Actually, 2.8.4-Wien also has the same behavior.
What does it mean, Mike, that this is "a recent issue" ?

#7 Updated by Sandro Santilli about 8 years ago

  • Priority changed from High to Severe/Regression
  • Crashes QGIS or corrupts data changed from No to Yes

Oops, sorry but I completely overlooked the crash part ! But confirm 2.8.4-Wien and final-2_10_1 are affected by it.
Will re-check with master and report back.

#8 Updated by Sandro Santilli about 8 years ago

  • Status changed from In Progress to Closed
  • Resolution set to fixed/implemented

Ok, master (ded1ebb) does not crash for me, so this seems to be fixed (the crash).
Feel free to file another one for the ERROR/ERROR indication, which is also a bug but not blocker.

#9 Updated by Sandro Santilli about 8 years ago

  • Status changed from Closed to Reopened

Wait, reopening. It still crashes, only later (need to close to crash).

Before closing, this is logged:

  ERROR: 1 geometries not changed.

  Provider errors:
      PostGIS error while changing geometry values: ERROR:  value "4294967295" is out of range for type integer

On closing, crash:

#10 Updated by Sandro Santilli about 8 years ago

Uff, the crash is unrelated with this bug. I'm filing a new one.

#11 Updated by Sandro Santilli about 8 years ago

So the crash was filed as #14260 -- Mike I'll leave to you confirming that master branch does not crash on edit, and filing the separate ticket about the ERROR/ERROR and impossibility to edit the layer, if you don't mind.

#12 Updated by Sandro Santilli about 8 years ago

  • Status changed from Reopened to Closed

I cannot reproduce the crash with a clean build against b9726d7285733c27d42456c115e28d5a37f3e0be, so closing this for the crash part. The rest was filed as #14262

#13 Updated by Jürgen Fischer about 8 years ago

Negative ids are used to identify new features (see FID_AS_NEW) - so negative ids might also cause other trouble, when adding, updating and deleting features.

#14 Updated by Sandro Santilli about 8 years ago

Uhm, I wish new features could be identifier in some other way, but as long as this is how you tell them apart, there should be checks in the provider to refuse accepting negative integers as real feature identifiers. Aren't there cases in which a field is refused as an identifier ? Like where duplicates are found ? Another case should be presence of negative integers, until that FID_IS_NEW usage changes, or the PostgreSQL provider changes the way it generates identifiers by isolating the database identifier from the qgis feature identifier (which would also allow using multiple-column identifiers or string-based ones etc.).

#15 Updated by Sandro Santilli about 8 years ago

The general case of overflow should be probably discussed in #14262 though...

The behavior with https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/pull/2777 merged becomes more weird but doesn't crash (yet)

#17 Updated by Sandro Santilli about 8 years ago

Why isn't the QgsFeatureId class used ?
https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/blob/master/src/core/qgsfeature.h#L33
It could be extended to signal if the feature is new or existing...

#18 Updated by Sandro Santilli about 8 years ago

I verified that always using the primary key of type "map" fixes this issue.
See commit:2dbcfb5 which is now part of https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/pull/2777
