or more roles. The key word + <code class="literal">PUBLIC</code> refers to the implicitly defined group of + all roles. + </p><p> + See the description of the <a class="link" href="sql-grant.html" title="GRANT"><code class="command">GRANT</code></a> command for + the meaning of the privilege types. + </p><p> + Note that any particular role will have the sum + of privileges granted directly to it, privileges granted to any role it + is presently a member of, and privileges granted to + <code class="literal">PUBLIC</code>. Thus, for example, revoking <code class="literal">SELECT</code> privilege + from <code class="literal">PUBLIC</code> does not necessarily mean that all roles + have lost <code class="literal">SELECT</code> privilege on the object: those who have it granted + directly or via another role will still have it. Similarly, revoking + <code class="literal">SELECT</code> from a user might not prevent that user from using + <code class="literal">SELECT</code> if <code class="literal">PUBLIC</code> or another membership + role still has <code class="literal">SELECT</code> rights. + </p><p> + If <code class="literal">GRANT OPTION FOR</code> is specified, only the grant + option for the privilege is revoked, not the privilege itself. + Otherwise, both the privilege and the grant option are revoked. + </p><p> + If a user holds a privilege with grant option and has granted it to + other users then the privileges held by those other users are + called dependent privileges. If the privilege or the grant option + held by the first user is being revoked and dependent privileges + exist, those dependent privileges are also revoked if + <code class="literal">CASCADE</code> is specified; if it is not, the revoke action + will fail. This recursive revocation only affects privileges that + were granted through a chain of users that is traceable to the user + that is the subject of this <code class="literal">REVOKE</code> command. + Thus, the affected users might effectively keep the privilege if it + was also granted through other users. + </p><p> + When revoking privileges on a table, the corresponding column privileges + (if any) are automatically revoked on each column of the table, as well. + On the other hand, if a role has been granted privileges on a table, then + revoking the same privileges from individual columns will have no effect. + </p><p> + When revoking membership in a role, <code class="literal">GRANT OPTION</code> is instead + called <code class="literal">ADMIN OPTION</code>, but the behavior is similar. + This form of the command also allows a <code class="literal">GRANTED BY</code> + option, but that option is currently ignored (except for checking + the existence of the named role). + Note also that this form of the command does not + allow the noise word <code class="literal">GROUP</code> + in <em class="replaceable"><code>role_specification</code></em>. + </p></div><div class="refsect1" id="SQL-REVOKE-NOTES"><h2>Notes</h2><p> + A user can only revoke privileges that were granted directly by + that user. If, for example, user A has granted a privilege with + grant option to user B, and user B has in turn granted it to user + C, then user A cannot revoke the privilege directly from C. + Instead, user A could revoke the grant option from user B and use + the <code class="literal">CASCADE</code> option so that the privilege is + in turn revoked from user C. For another example, if both A and B + have granted the same privilege to C, A can revoke their own grant + but not B's grant, so C will still effectively have the privilege. + </p><p> + When a non-owner of an object attempts to <code class="command">REVOKE</code> privileges + on the object, the command will fail outright if the user has no + privileges whatsoever on the object. As long as some privilege is + available, the command will proceed, but it will revoke only those + privileges for which the user has grant options. The <code class="command">REVOKE ALL + PRIVILEGES</code> forms will issue a warning message if no grant options are + held, while the other forms will issue a warning if grant options for + any of the privileges specifically named in the command are not held. + (In principle these statements apply to the object owner as well, but + since the owner is always treated as holding all grant options, the + cases can never occur.) + </p><p> + If a superuser chooses to issue a <code class="command">GRANT</code> or <code class="command">REVOKE</code> + command, the command is performed as though it were issued by the + owner of the affected object. Since all privileges ultimately come + from the object owner (possibly indirectly via chains of grant options), + it is possible for a superuser to revoke all privileges, but this might + require use of <code class="literal">CASCADE</code> as stated above. + </p><p> + <code class="command">REVOKE</code> can also be done by a role + that is not the owner of the affected object, but is a member of the role + that owns the object, or is a member of a role that holds privileges + <code class="literal">WITH GRANT OPTION</code> on the object. In this case the + command is performed as though it were issued by the containing role that + actually owns the object or holds the privileges + <code class="literal">WITH GRANT OPTION</code>. For example, if table + <code class="literal">t1</code> is owned by role <code class="literal">g1</code>, of which role + <code class="literal">u1</code> is a member, then <code class="literal">u1</code> can revoke privileges + on <code class="literal">t1</code> that are recorded as being granted by <code class="literal">g1</code>. + This would include grants made by <code class="literal">u1</code> as well as by other + members of role <code class="literal">g1</code>. + </p><p> + If the role executing <code class="command">REVOKE</code> holds privileges + indirectly via more than one role membership path, it is unspecified + which containing role will be used to perform the command. In such cases + it is best practice to use <code class="command">SET ROLE</code> to become the specific + role you want to do the <code class="command">REVOKE</code> as. Failure to do so might + lead to revoking privileges other than the ones you intended, or not + revoking anything at all. + </p><p> + See <a class="xref" href="ddl-priv.html" title="5.7.
