What happens if you have a bad oil pump?

The pump maintains the oil pressure to a point as can impart proper lubrication for the functioning of the engine and other machinery without friction. In the absence of that right pressure, friction will be caused for sure, and the most obvious result then, is heat generation. It is one of the most obvious oil pump failure symptoms.
