Yes, the stack has already been unwound at the start of a PG_CATCH
(or PG_FINALLY) block, so there is no reason to avoid returning
out of those.

In principle you could also mess things up with a "continue", "break",
or "goto" leading out of PG_TRY.  That's probably far less likely
than "return", but I wonder whether Andres' compiler hack will
catch that.

Thank you Tom,

Based on your comments, I've refactored my clang checker[1], now it can warn about the following patterns:
1. return statement in PG_TRY(). We've catched all of them in this thread.
2. continue statement in PG_TRY() *unless* it's in for/while/do-while statements.
3. break statement in PG_TRY() *unless* it's in for/while/do-while/switch statements.
4. goto statement in PG_TRY() *unless* the label it points to is in the same PG_TRY block.

Good news is that, there's no patterns (2, 3, 4) in Postgres source tree and we've catched all of the return statements in the PG_TRY block in this thread.


Best Regards,
Xing
