HI
I used java API FastPath.fastpath(fid, ...) to call a C function
PGfn(conn, fid,...) in the kernal. But if there is an exception (i.e.,
ERROR messages is thrown in the backend due to elog(ERROR, ...)), the
FastPath.fastpath(fid, ..) is blocked and never returns. The DB backend is
also dead. I have to "pkill -9 post" in order to restore everything. Can
anyone give a clue of what the problems should be? Where should are the
bugs possibly located?
The java codes is attached:
public boolean putWriteSet(java.sql.Connection conn, byte[] writeSet)
throws SQLException
{
Fastpath fp = ((org.postgresql.Connection)conn).getFastpathAPI();
FastpathArg[] args = new FastpathArg[1];
args[0] = new FastpathArg(writeSet);
fp.fastpath(2075, false, args); //to apply writeset, indirectly call
PQfn(conn, 2075, ...) implemented in the kernal in C.
return true;
}
I am not the original author of C version PQfn(.,2075,..) so I have no
idea where and how to debug it. I doubt that the blocking is due to
implementation of C part instead of Java part. But I don't know how to
start my debugging.
thanks in advance!
