Previously, FDWs could only do "early row locking", that is lock a row as soon as it's fetched, even though local restriction/join conditions might discard the row later. This patch adds callbacks that allow FDWs to do late locking in the same way that it's done for regular tables. To make use of this feature, an FDW must support the "ctid" column as a unique row identifier. Currently, since ctid has to be of type TID, the feature is of limited use, though in principle it could be used by postgres_fdw. We may eventually allow FDWs to specify another data type for ctid, which would make it possible for more FDWs to use this feature. This commit does not modify postgres_fdw to use late locking. We've tested some prototype code for that, but it's not in committable shape, and besides it's quite unclear whether it actually makes sense to do late locking against a remote server. The extra round trips required are likely to outweigh any benefit from improved concurrency. Etsuro Fujita, reviewed by Ashutosh Bapat, and hacked up a lot by me |

PostgreSQL Database Management System ===================================== This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL database management system. PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types and functions. This distribution also contains C language bindings. PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here: http://www.postgresql.org/download See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install PostgreSQL. That file also lists supported operating systems and hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL system. Copyright and license information can be found in the file COPYRIGHT. A comprehensive documentation set is included in this distribution; it can be read as described in the installation instructions. The latest version of this software may be obtained at http://www.postgresql.org/download/. For more information look at our web site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
