BTW,
recently I hacked around on the SETUID stuff and it wasn't
that much to do.
I renamed the obsolete and unsupported proistrusted attribute
in pg_proc to proissetuid and made it default to false. Then
I hacked some code into ExecMakeFunctionResult(),
ExecCallTriggerFunc() and utils/init/miscinit.c and voila -
setting proissetuid to true works for 'sql', 'C', and any PL
functions called via a func node by the executor or triggerd.
It does not work for input/output functions and I haven't
checked about operators and aggregates. I don't think that
types input/output functions need it and for the
operators/aggregates it must be that easy too.
What should the syntax for setting/unsetting proissetuid?
ALTER FUNCTION funcname (args) (NO)SETUID
looks good for me.
But before doing anything here I think we should also be able
to make a view setuid. I haven't thought much about that up
to now. Any ideas how and where this could be done?
Until later, Jan
