@@ -3815,6 +3861,10 @@ PrepareTransactionBlock(const char *gid)
/* Set up to commit the current transaction */
result = EndTransactionBlock(false);
+ /* Don't allow prepare until we are back to an unnested state at level 0 */
+ if (XactNestingLevel > 0)
+ return false;
I am not sure whether it is good to not allow PREPARE or we can just
prepare it and come out of the complete nested transaction. Suppose
we have multiple savepoints and we say prepare then it will just
succeed so why does it have to be different here?
2. case TBLOCK_SUBABORT:
ereport(WARNING,
(errcode(ERRCODE_ACTIVE_SQL_TRANSACTION),
errmsg("there is already a transaction in progress")));
+ if (XactNesting == XACT_NEST_OUTER)
+ XactNestingLevel++;
break;
I did not understand what this change is for, can you tell me the
scenario or a test case to hit this?
Remaining part w.r.t "nested xact" patch looks fine, I haven't tested
it yet though.
