  1. When deleting the plpgsql function, release the CachedPlan of the function

    Hi, hackers


I have observed an issue where the CachedPlan corresponding to a function/procedure is not released when we execute the "DROP FUNCTION\PROCEDURE" command. A patch to resolve this problem is attached.


A simple test case is as follows:


Step 1 ：
create or replace procedure test_pro() as $$declare
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; va int default 100;
begin
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; for i in 1 .. 10 loop
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; va := va + i;
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; end loop;


&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; raise notice '%', va;
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; va := va;

end $$ LANGUAGE plpgsql;


Step 2：
call test_pro();


Step 3：
select * from pg_get_backend_memory_contexts() where parent = 'CacheMemoryContext' and name = 'CachedPlan';


Step 4：
drop procedure test_pro;


Step 5：
select * from pg_get_backend_memory_contexts() where parent = 'CacheMemoryContext' and name = 'CachedPlan';


Step 6：
create or replace procedure test_pro() as $$declare
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; va int default 100;
begin
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; for i in 1 .. 10 loop
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; va := va + i;
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; end loop;


&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; raise notice '%', va;
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; va := va;

end $$ LANGUAGE plpgsql;


Step 7：
call test_pro();


Step 8：
select * from pg_get_backend_memory_contexts() where parent = 'CacheMemoryContext' and name = 'CachedPlan';




result：
