Bug reference:      15746
Logged by:          Roman Zharkov

Description:

Hello,
I found a problem within regression tests. The plpgsql test fails when
running twice on the same database.
Here is small script illustrates the problem:

begin;
  create function sql_to_date(integer) returns date as $$
  select $1::text::date
  $$ language sql immutable strict;
  create cast (integer as date) with function sql_to_date(integer) as
assignment;
  create function cast_invoker(integer) returns date as $$
  begin
    return $1;
  end$$ language plpgsql;

  select cast_invoker(20150717);

  drop function cast_invoker(integer);
  drop function sql_to_date(integer) cascade;
commit;

begin;
  create function sql_to_date(integer) returns date as $$
  select $1::text::date
  $$ language sql immutable strict;
  create cast (integer as date) with function sql_to_date(integer) as
assignment;
  create function cast_invoker(integer) returns date as $$
  begin
    return $1;
  end$$ language plpgsql;

  select cast_invoker(20150717);

  drop function cast_invoker(integer);
  drop function sql_to_date(integer) cascade;
commit;

Results:

begin;
  create function sql_to_date(integer) returns date as $$
  select $1::text::date
  $$ language sql immutable strict;
  create cast (integer as date) with function sql_to_date(integer) as

  create function cast_invoker(integer) returns date as $$
  begin
    return $1;
  end$$ language plpgsql;
  select cast_invoker(20150717);

The problem reproduces in the 10, 11 versions.

The cause is stale cast function id in cached expression of
plpgsql. (get_cast_hashentry)
    
Happens since 9.5 to 11.  Once happens, the symptom persists
until session-end. Doesn't happen on 9.4 since it doesn't cache
cast expressions. 12 invalidates cached cast expressions
(04fe805a17).

It seems to me possible that a cast calls a wrong function and
leads to a crash. But I don't come up with a good way to fix
this, but applying a part of the patch 04fe805a17 on 11(.2) seems
working.

regards.

Hello,

Thank you! The patch works.

I don't see a good reason to think that a crash is possible.

FWIW, I intentionally did not back-patch 04fe805a17.  I judged
that before the domain-related changes in that patch, such cases
wouldn't come up often enough to justify inserting poorly-tested
code into the back branches.  I still think that.
