I didn't look at your patch yet, but in the meantime here's an update
that takes the next step towards what I promised.
0001-0003 are the same as before, with a couple of trivial changes
to rebase them up to current HEAD. 0004 adds a support function
request to allow extension functions to perform in-place updates.
You should be able to use that to improve what your extension
is doing. The new comments in supportnodes.h explain how to
use it (plus see the built-in examples, though they are quite
simple).
regards, tom lane

Subject: [PATCH v2 1/4] Preliminary refactoring.
This short and boring patch simply moves the responsibility for
initializing PLpgSQL_expr.target_param into plpgsql parsing,
rather than doing it at first execution of the expr as before.
This doesn't save anything in terms of runtime, since the work was
trivial and done only once per expr anyway. But it makes the info
available during parsing, which will be useful for the next step.
Likewise set PLpgSQL_expr.func during parsing. According to the
comments, this was once impossible; but it's certainly possible
since we invented the plpgsql_curr_compile variable. Again, this
saves little runtime, but it seems far cleaner conceptually.
While at it, I reordered stuff in struct PLpgSQL_expr to make it
clearer which fields are filled when, and merged some duplicative
code in pl_gram.y.

Subject: [PATCH v2 2/4] Detect whether plpgsql assignment targets are "local"
variables.
Mark whether the target of a potentially optimizable assignment
is "local", in the sense of being declared inside any exception
block that could trap an error thrown from the assignment.
(This implies that we needn't preserve the variable's value
in case of an error.)
Normally, this requires a post-parsing scan of the function's
parse tree, since we don't know while parsing a BEGIN ...
construct whether we will find EXCEPTION at its end. However,
if there are no BEGIN ... EXCEPTION blocks in the function at
all, then all assignments are local, even those to variables
representing function arguments. We optimize that common case
by initializing the target_is_local flags to "true", and fixing
them up with a post-scan only if we found EXCEPTION.
The scan is implemented by code that's largely copied-and-pasted
from the nearby code to scan a plpgsql parse tree for deletion.
It's a bit annoying to have three copies of that now, but I'm
not seeing a way to refactor it that would save much code on net.
Note that variables' default-value expressions are never interesting
for expanded-variable optimization, since they couldn't contain a
reference to the target variable anyway. But the code is set up
to compute their target_param and target_is_local correctly anyway,
for consistency and in case someone thinks of a use for that data.
I added a bit of plpgsql_dumptree support to help verify that
this code sets the flags as expected. I'm not set on keeping
that, but I do want to keep the addition of a plpgsql_dumptree
call in plpgsql_compile_inline. It's at best an oversight that
"#option dump" doesn't work in a DO block.

From 4666ac2ba3433574cd3024f49f58b290a58b1f86 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Tom Lane <tgl@sss.pgh.pa.us>
Date: Tue, 3 Dec 2024 14:43:33 -0500
Subject: [PATCH v2 3/4] Implement new optimization rule for updates of
expanded variables.
If a read/write expanded variable is declared locally to the
assignment statement that is updating it, and it is referenced
exactly once in the assignment RHS, then we can optimize the
operation as a direct update of the expanded value, whether
or not the function(s) operating on it can be trusted not to
modify the value before throwing an error. This works because
if an error does get thrown, we no longer care what value the
variable has.
In cases where that doesn't work, fall back to the previous
rule that checks for safety of the top-level function.
In any case, postpone determination of whether these optimizations
are feasible until we are executing a Param referencing the target
variable and that variable holds a R/W expanded object. While the
previous incarnation of exec_check_rw_parameter was pretty cheap,
this is a bit less so, and our plan to invoke support functions
will make it even less so. So avoiding the check for variables
where it couldn't be useful should be a win.

+ * expression operate directly on the expanded value. In both cases we
+ * are considering assignments like "var := array_append(var, foo)" where

+ *
+ * Case 1 (RWOPT_TRANSFER rule): if the variable is "local" in the sense that

+ * assignment, then we do not need to worry about preserving its value if the

+ * exactly once in the RHS expression, then we can optimize by converting the
+ * read/write expanded value into a transient value within the expression
+ * evaluation context, and then setting the variable's recorded value to NULL
+ * to prevent double-free attempts. This works regardless of any other
+ * details of the RHS expression. If the expression eventually returns that
+ * same expanded object (possibly modified) then the variable will re-acquire
+ * ownership; while if it returns something else or throws an error, the
+ * expanded object will be discarded as part of cleanup of the evaluation
+ * context.
+ *
+ * Case 2 (RWOPT_INPLACE rule): if we have a non-local assignment or if
+ * it looks like "var := array_append(var, var[1])" with multiple references
+ * to the target variable, then we can't use case 1. Nonetheless, if the
* top-level function is trusted not to corrupt its argument in case of an
- * error, then when x has an expanded object as value, it is safe to pass the
- * value as a read/write pointer and let the function modify the value
- * in-place.
+ * error, then when the var has an expanded object as value, it is safe to
+ * pass the value as a read/write pointer to the top-level function and let
+ * the function modify the value in-place. (Any other references have to be
+ * passed as read-only pointers as usual.) Only the top-level function has to
+ * be trusted, since if anything further down fails, the object hasn't been
+ * modified yet.
*
- * This function checks for a safe expression, and sets expr->expr_rw_param

+ * to either rule, and updates expr->expr_rwopt accordingly. In addition,
+ * it sets expr->expr_rw_param to the address of the Param within the
+ * expression that can be passed as read/write (there can be only one);
+ * or to NULL when there is no safe Param.
*
- * Note that this mechanism intentionally applies the safety labeling to just

- * Also, it's safe to assume that an expr_simple_expr tree won't get copied

From 62828464b0b74a46da56d110ce2c831641f0b2bc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Tom Lane <tgl@sss.pgh.pa.us>
Date: Tue, 3 Dec 2024 19:25:22 -0500
Subject: [PATCH v2 4/4] Allow extension functions to participate in in-place
updates.
Commit 1dc5ebc90 allowed PL/pgSQL to perform in-place updates
of expanded-object variables that are being updated with
assignments like "x := f(x, ...)". However this was allowed
only for a hard-wired list of functions f(), since we need to
be sure that f() will not modify the variable if it fails.
It was always envisioned that we should make that extensible,
but at the time we didn't have a good way to do so. Since
then we've invented the idea of "support functions" to allow
attaching specialized optimization knowledge to functions,
and that is a perfect mechanism for doing this.
Hence, adjust PL/pgSQL to use a support function request
instead of hard-wired logic to decide if in-place update
is safe. Replace the previous behavior by creating support
functions for the three functions that were previously
hard-wired.
Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/CACxu=vJaKFNsYxooSnW1wEgsAO5u_v1XYBacfVJ14wgJV_PYeg@mail.gmail.com
