When starting to use a query parsetree loaded from the catalogs, we must begin by applying AcquireRewriteLocks(), to obtain the same relation locks that the parser would have gotten if the query were entered interactively, and to do some other cleanup such as dealing with later-dropped columns. New-style SQL functions are just as subject to this rule as other stored parsetrees; however, of the places dealing with such functions, only init_sql_fcache had gotten the memo. In particular, if we successfully inlined a new-style set-returning SQL function that contained any relation references, we'd either get an assertion failure or attempt to use those relation(s) sans locks. I also added AcquireRewriteLocks calls to fmgr_sql_validator and print_function_sqlbody. Desultory experiments didn't demonstrate any failures in those, but I suspect that I just didn't try hard enough. Certainly we don't expect nearby code paths to operate without locks. On the same logic of it-ought-to-have-the-same-effects-as-the-old-code, call pg_rewrite_query() in fmgr_sql_validator, too. It's possible that neither code path there needs to bother with rewriting, but doing the analysis to prove that is beyond my goals for today. Per bug #17161 from Alexander Lakhin.

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. The latest version of this software may be obtained at https://www.postgresql.org/download/. For more information look at our web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
