The <code class="filename">pgrowlocks</code> module provides a function to show row
locking information for a specified table.
</p><p>
By default use is restricted to superusers, roles with privileges of the
<code class="literal">pg_stat_scan_tables</code> role, and users with
<code class="literal">SELECT</code> permissions on the table.
</p><div class="sect2" id="id-1.11.7.40.5"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title">F.31.1. Overview</h3></div></div></div><a id="id-1.11.7.40.5.2" class="indexterm"></a><pre class="synopsis">
pgrowlocks(text) returns setof record
</pre><p>
The parameter is the name of a table. The result is a set of records,
with one row for each locked row within the table. The output columns
are shown in <a class="xref" href="pgrowlocks.html#PGROWLOCKS-COLUMNS" title="Table F.19. pgrowlocks Output Columns">Table F.19</a>.

<code class="function">pgrowlocks</code> takes <code class="literal">AccessShareLock</code> for the
target table and reads each row one by one to collect the row locking
information. This is not very speedy for a large table. Note that:
</p><div class="orderedlist"><ol class="orderedlist" type="1"><li class="listitem"><p>
If an <code class="literal">ACCESS EXCLUSIVE</code> lock is taken on the table,
<code class="function">pgrowlocks</code> will be blocked.
</p></li><li class="listitem"><p>
<code class="function">pgrowlocks</code> is not guaranteed to produce a
self-consistent snapshot. It is possible that a new row lock is taken,
or an old lock is freed, during its execution.
</p></li></ol></div><p>
<code class="function">pgrowlocks</code> does not show the contents of locked
rows. If you want to take a look at the row contents at the same time, you
could do something like this:
</p><pre class="programlisting">
SELECT * FROM accounts AS a, pgrowlocks('accounts') AS p
WHERE p.locked_row = a.ctid;
</pre><p>
Be aware however that such a query will be very inefficient.
