Passing the table name as a function argument in PLPGSQL

Hello,


Is it possible to pass the name of the table to update to a given function ?

For example, how can I do something like:

CREATE FUNCTION compute_ipaddr(CHARACTER VARYING, INET)
    AS $_$
DECLARE
   tbl_name ALIAS FOR $1;
   module_ipaddr ALIAS FOR $2;
BEGIN
 UPDATE tbl_name SET ipaddr = module_ipaddr  ....

END;
$_$
    LANGUAGE PLPGSQL;


Since this does not work, I have to do

IF tbl_name = 'controller' THEN
  UPDATE controller SET ipaddr = module_ipaddr ...
ELSE IF tbl_name = 'server' THEN
  UPDATE server SET ipaddr = module_ipaddr ...
[ ...]


Is there a technique to pass the table name and so make the code more
generic ?

Thanks for your help
