Hi,

 

You cannot set the statement_timeout within a function.

You have to set it before you call the function.

For example, you can try :

BEGIN;

  SET LOCAL statement_timeout = 6000;

  SELECT * from public.”testlock”();

COMMIT;

 

The reason why is explained in this post : https://dba.stackexchange.com/questions/82977/why-set-local-statement-timeout-does-not-work-as-expected-with-postgresql-func

I would not think that behavior would extend to lock_timeout based on the explanation on stackexchange. I would assume that the potentially long runtime in this function is mostly in acquiring the lock and not doing the update given the implied primary key in the where clause, so perhaps lock_timeout would fit the need.

Or perhaps this is a much-simplified example and the real problem is not apparent. Why take an exclusive lock on an entire table to update a single row? What is this locks table for? Would advisory locks be the proper solution to the root problem perhaps? Just throwing things out there since context was lacking in the original question.

That's what I was asking myself as well.

Note that the code takes "row exclusive", not "exclusive".  It is several notches less restrictive, and is the mode an UPDATE statement is going to take anyway.  It still isn't clear why he is doing it, however.
