Re: Re: pg_stat_statements normalisation without invasive changes to the parser (was: Next steps on pg_stat_statements normalisation)

I've attached a patch with the required modifications. I also attach
revised tests, since naturally I have continued with test-driven
development.

Implemented. We simply do this now:

*************** RewriteQuery(Query *parsetree, List *rew
*** 2141,2146 ****
--- 2142,2154 ----
  errmsg("WITH cannot be used in a query that is rewritten by rules
into multiple queries")));
  }

+ /* Mark rewritten queries with their originating queryId */
+ foreach(lc1, rewritten)
+ {
+ Query   *q = (Query *) lfirst(lc1);
+ q->queryId = orig_query_id;
+ }
+
  return rewritten;
 }

I have done this too. The hook is called in the following places, and
some tests won't pass if any one of them is commented out:

parse_analyze
parse_analyze_varparams
pg_analyze_and_rewrite_params

I have notably *not* added anything to the following transformstmt
call site functions for various obvious reasons:

inline_function
parse_sub_analyze
transformInsertStmt
transformDeclareCursorStmt
transformExplainStmt
transformRuleStmt

I assert against pg_stat_statements fingerprinting a query twice, and
have reasonable test coverage for nested queries (both due to rules
and function execution) now. I also tweaked pg_stat_statements itself
in one or two places.

I restored the location field to the ParamCoerceHook signature, but
the removal of code to modify the param location remains (again, not
because I need it, but because I happen to think that it ought to be
consistent with Const).

Thoughts?
