Hi
A function is being called in a loop. Sometime, there is an error.
sqlstate: XX000
NOTICE: message: invalid memory alloc request size 1073741824
What to do to resolve the issue?
It depends what you do. Postgres doesn't allow to allocate bigger blocks than 1GB. Maybe you create too big string or too big value of some other type. But it can be signal of some cache bloating.
Can you show source code? Can you use gdb, attach to Postgres, place breakpoint to this error message, and when you get this error, send stack trace?

It a recursive query,.
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION public.downstream_start_end_ret3333(integer)
RETURNS record
LANGUAGE plpgsql
AS $function$
declare
ret int;
arr int[];
rec last_arr_count;
last int;
max int;
Begin
drop table if exists t;
create temp table t (idlist int[]);
--select count(*) from t into max;
WITH RECURSIVE walk_network(id, startpoint, endpoint, name1_text, startnode, endnode) AS (
SELECT id, startpoint, endpoint, name1_text, startnode, endnode
FROM primarylink1
WHERE id = $1
UNION ALL
SELECT
n.id, n.startpoint, n.endpoint, n.name1_text, n.startnode, n.endnode
FROM primarylink1 n, walk_network w
WHERE w.endpoint=n.startpoint and w.startpoint != n.endpoint and w.endnode =n.startnode and w.startnode != n.endnode
)
insert into t SELECT array_unique_stable(array_agg(id)) as idlist FROM walk_network;
select idlist from t into rec.arr;
select rec.arr[array_upper(rec.arr, 1)] into rec.last;
---select count(distinct name) from t into rec.count;
drop table t;
return rec;
end;
$function$
Perhaps, it gets into a endless loop.
