It is always rolled back. Its how plperl works today:
create or replace function foo() returns int as $$
eval {
spi_exec_query('create table uniq (num int primary key');
spi_exec_query('insert into uniq (num) values (1), (1);', 1);
};
if($@) {
# do something ... $@ == "duplicate key value violates unique
constraint "uniq_pkey" at line 2."
warn $@;
}
# oh well do something else
# note the transaction is _not_ aborted
spi_exec_query('select 1;', 1);
return 1;
$$ language plperl;
=# begin;
=# select foo();
=# select 1;
=# commit;
It does not matter if you use eval or not, its always in a sub transaction.

Basically, minus the rollback to start. Its per query.
