The patch itself is pretty simple, but I'm unclear on the use case.
Jonathan, can you elaborate a bit?
Thanks,

p.s. I'm on a business trip in Asia again, so my responses may be

Hi Joe,
We are using the dblink module on Sensor servers to provide
summarization services to a Central server. Sensors are in the business
of populating certain Postgres databases, and the Central is in the
business of populating a summary Postgres database. The issue in our
situation is that the Central server does an explicit BEGIN transaction
some time before it calls the dblink_open() routine. On the Sensors, we
were getting many "there is already a transaction in progress" warnings,
and overflowing our log storage. Is this patch the right way to go
about this?
Thanks,
Jonathan
I'm not a member of this list (yet), so please CC me on responses and
discussion. The patch below seems to be completion of work already
started, because the boolean remoteTrFlag was already defined, and all I
had to add was its setting and two references. I hope someone will find
it useful,Jonathan
I have worked on this issue and have an extensive patch to dblink to fix
it.
The reported problem is that dblink_open/dblink_close() (for cursor
reads) do a BEGIN/COMMIT regardless of the transaction state of the
remote connection. There was code in dblink.c to track the remote
transaction state (rconn), but it was not being maintained or used.
This patch fixes that by routing all connections through an rconn
structure and using the transaction status properly. I removed the
global persistent connection and function-local 'conn' structures in
favor of using rconn consistently. This cleans up a lot of error-prone
code that tried to track what type of connection was being used.
I don't know if people want this for 8.1 or 8.2.

I hope someone will find it useful,Jonathan
I have worked on this issue and have an extensive patch to dblink to
fix it.The reported problem is that dblink_open/dblink_close() (for cursor
reads) do a BEGIN/COMMIT regardless of the transaction state of the
remote connection. There was code in dblink.c to track the remote
transaction state (rconn), but it was not being maintained or used.This patch fixes that by routing all connections through an rconn
structure and using the transaction status properly. I removed the
global persistent connection and function-local 'conn' structures in
favor of using rconn consistently. This cleans up a lot of
error-prone code that tried to track what type of connection was
being used.I don't know if people want this for 8.1 or 8.2.
8.1, IMHO. It's a bug fix. :)
Cheers,
D

I had asked on the original simple patch, and I'll ask again now -- why
is this needed? I don't have a clear understanding of the problem that
this (or the earlier) patch is trying to solve. Without that, it is
impossible to say whether it is a bug fix or feature.

Well, as I said in the patch email:
The reported problem is that dblink_open/dblink_close() (for cursor
reads) do a BEGIN/COMMIT regardless of the transaction state of the
remote connection. There was code in dblink.c to track the remote
transaction state (rconn), but it was not being maintained or used.
If a remote transactions has already been started by the user,
dblink_open is going to call BEGIN, which is going to fail because there
is already an open transaction, right?
Here is an crude example:
test=> BEGIN;
BEGIN
test=> begin;
WARNING: there is already a transaction in progress
BEGIN
test=> SELECT 1;
?column?
----------
1
(1 row)
test=> COMMIT;
COMMIT
test=> COMMIT;
WARNING: there is no transaction in progress
COMMIT
The BEGIN and COMMIT are only a warning though, but the early COMMIT by
the dblink_close() is a serious issue.

You should lose the remoteXactOpen flag entirely, in favor of just
testing PQtransactionStatus() on-the-fly when necessary. Simpler,
more reliable, not notably slower.
With that change, the separate remoteConn struct could be dropped
altogether in favor of just using the PGconn pointer. This would
make things notationally simpler, and in fact perhaps allow undoing
the bulk of the edits in your patch. As-is I think the patch is
pretty risky to apply during beta.

The problem with not using rconn is that we are not saving the
transaction status at the _start_ of the cursor open. If we don't do
that, we have no way of knowing on close if _we_ opened the transaction
or whether it was opened by the user.

Oh, I see. In that case the flag is horribly misnamed and miscommented.
Something like "newXactForCursor" would be clearer.

The problem with not using rconn is that we are not saving the

Something like "newXactForCursor" would be clearer.
OK, renamed to isClientXact.
