If the CALL is within an atomic context (e.g. there's an outer transaction block), _SPI_execute_plan should acquire a fresh snapshot to execute any such functions with. We failed to do that and instead passed them the Portal snapshot, which had been acquired at the start of the current SQL command. This'd lead to seeing stale values of rows modified since the start of the command. This is arguably a bug in 84f5c2908: I failed to see that "are we in non-atomic mode" needs to be defined the same way as it is further down in _SPI_execute_plan, i.e. check !_SPI_current->atomic not just options->allow_nonatomic. Alternatively the blame could be laid on plpgsql, which is unconditionally passing allow_nonatomic = true for CALL/DO even when it knows it's in an atomic context. However, fixing it in spi.c seems like a better idea since that will also fix the problem for any extensions that may have copied plpgsql's coding pattern. While here, update an obsolete comment about _SPI_execute_plan's snapshot management. Per report from Victor Yegorov. Back-patch to all supported versions.

PostgreSQL Database Management System ===================================== This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL database management system. PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types and functions. This distribution also contains C language bindings. PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here: https://www.postgresql.org/download/ See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install PostgreSQL. That file also lists supported operating systems and hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL system. Copyright and license information can be found in the file COPYRIGHT. A comprehensive documentation set is included in this distribution; it can be read as described in the installation instructions.
