I expect id = 2, but it is **4** instead,
The reason is that the function p_test_execute is executed twice, when *fetch*, it is first executed, and when transaction commit, because the cursor is a *holdable* cursor, it is executed again.
I read the code, for holdable cursor, when commit, following call will execute:
CommitHoldablePortals-->PersistHoldablePortal-->ExecutorRewind.
Is *ExecutorRewind* necessary, is it the root of this bug?
Does *ExecutorRewind* cause plan re-execute?
