The added predicate for this is is using context as seen in the trace
file. This can be generated by setting event 10730

That was my point, that using the context variable in the predicate
clause will cause it to act like a bimnd variable and that is behaviour
that I have been seeing

I don't think this is the issue at all. The SQL in the function
that generates the predicate WILL use bind variables and that
is perfectly expected. That's why you don't see an increase in parses
on the SQL INSIDE the function.
What will not use bind variables is this bit:
> SQL> select count(*) from dpr70_gl_acct_balance_f;
because the added predicate is a string without bind syntax.
However, I think if the added predicate string contains a reference
to a context variable, which is what Tom is talking about, it might
well be the case this will act as a kind of bind variable
even though the syntax is not the correct one. Anyone found if that
is the case?

RE: Row level security and latch waits - LONG email...
Hi,
With the way we have implemented FGAC, we do not have any parses
occurring with application context.
The application context does act like bind variables and I will try to
illustrate that with an example.
We set the context of the users logging in to a particular group/role
which gets executed from a logon trigger
POLICY_NAMEFUNCTION
-- --
DPR70_CURRENCY_D_PLCY DP_PREDICATE_FUNCTION
The above is the function defined on the object
Login as a user
SQL> select sys_context('dp_comp_group_id_ctx','comp_group_id')
2 from dual;
SYS_CONTEXT('DP_COMP_GROUP_ID_CTX','COMP_GROUP_ID')
1012
SQL> select count(sql_text) from v$sql where sql_text like '%sys_cont%';
COUNT(SQL_TEXT)
---
12
In v$sql
this is the sql that generates the predicate clause vis the function
SELECT text from dp_security_text where object_name = :b1
and comp_group_id = sys_context('dp_comp_group_id_ctx','comp_group_id')
SELECT sys_context(:b2,:b1) from sys.dual
Notice how the context gets converted into bind variables
Also notice the parse_calls and executions
6 16 SELECT text from dp_security_text where
object_name = :b1 and comp_group_id =
sys_context('dp_comp_group_id_ctx','comp_group_id')
Now lets login as a different user

2 from dual;
SYS_CONTEXT('DP_COMP_GROUP_ID_CTX','COMP_GROUP_ID')
1011

There is a parse because the user_id is different

sys_context('dp_comp_group_id_ctx','comp_group_id')

Notice again parse_calls does not change
The above SQL is the predicate clause being generated every time
Hope this helps.
Also from Tom Kyte
/QUOTE

what this means is in 9i, the policy function will be executed every time
a query is issued against the object.
But if the predicate being is generated is the same everytime then the
policy can be generated with static_policy=true
and if needs to be refreshed, then dbms_policy.refresh needs to be used.
If the predicate generated is different in different database sessions
but they are the same within a session, then
_dynamic_rls_policies=FALSE will prevent it being executed within the
session.
Hope this helps.

Sorry for the long winding email

Re: Re: Row level security and latch waits
My understanding was that the rls predicate was added at parse time (hence the importance of the contexts and avoiding things like 'sysdate') But also if I remember correctly, this behaviour was changed in v9 to process the security function with each execution (and hence probably increase the amount of parsing going on). You might want to have a play the the "_dynamic_policies" parameter (or something like that) which can be used to revert the 8i behaviour (which should reduce parsing to a degree) hth connor --- Nuno Souto <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > - Original Message - > > > - Use context values within predicates, as bind > variables NOTE THIS > > LINE.> > > > None of that implies it's not appending a where > clause like it > was explained. > > It uses the context values (if that's the case) in a > function > which then returns a string.

Re: Re: Row level security and latch waits
- Original Message - > - Use context values within predicates, as bind variables NOTE THIS > LINE.> None of that implies it's not appending a where clause like it was explained. It uses the context values (if that's the case) in a function which then returns a string. That string is then appended as a predicate to the original statement. That means the original statement is then re-parsed. It's the reason why you need query-rewrite enabled in FGAC. So, you get a lot of parsing. I don't know of any way of passing a context value as a true bind variable in a return string which is appended as a predicate. It certainly is not explained anywhere in the manual how to do it and I couldn't find anything in the literature and asktom either. Appreciate if anyone can explain how. A dynamically generated string is not the same as a bind variable.

RE: Re: Row level security and latch waits
Hi Raj, Vadim is right and if RLS is implemented without application context then there would be hard parses especially if there are literals in the policy function . We have a client warehouse with about 500 users and 300 tables and FGAC has been working very well and we do not see latch waits. The policy function has to be devoid of literals as vadim indicated. We ste up the policy function based on the application context and in order to look at the where clause generated, an evetn can be set. Hope this helps.

RE: Re: Row level security and latch waits
Jack, You are right, app context is treated as a bind variable, but someone may decide not to use it in RLS policy function. Example (maybe a little unreal but valid): CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE BODY Oe_security AS FUNCTION Custnum_sec (D1 VARCHAR2, D2 VARCHAR2) RETURN VARCHAR2 IS D_predicate VARCHAR2 (2000) BEGIN D_predicate = 'create_date > '''||to_char(sysdate-1)||''''; RETURN D_predicate; END Custnum_sec; END Oe_security; Hence hard parses.

Re: Re: Row level security and latch waits
OK, I went and looked in the 8i Concepts manual. It seems pretty clear
that Application Context variables are used as bind variables. It may have
changed for 9i, but I can't see how or why.
"Application Context
Application context facilitates the implementation of fine-grained access
control. It allows you to implement security policies with functions and
then associate those security policies with applications. Each application
can have its own application-specific context. Users are not allowed to
arbitrarily change their context (for example, through SQL*Plus).
Application contexts permit flexible, parameter-based access control, based
on attributes of interest to an application. For example, context
attributes for a human resources application could include "position",
"organizational unit", and "country" while attributes for an order-entry
control might be "customer number" and "sales region".
You can:
- Base predicates on context values
- Use context values within predicates, as bind variables<<<< NOTE THIS
LINE.>>>>>
- Set user attributes
- Access user attributes "

Re: RE: Row level security and latch waits
im fairly certain its because DBMS_RLS doesnt use bind variables now. latch waits indicates plus your 100 concurrent users. you can check this by going to v$sqlarea and checking for similiar sql_text statements. if they are there, then your not using bind variables. there is a query in tom kytes book. not sure where it is on the web now that wrox is out of business. its probably on asktom though. > > From: "Jamadagni, Rajendra" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Date: 2003/08/19 Tue AM 11:49:25 EDT > To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Subject: RE: Row level security and latch waits > > sorry this is 9202 and little less than 100 users. > > Raj > > > Rajendra dot Jamadagni at nospamespn dot com > All Views expressed in this email are strictly personal. > QOTD: Any clod can have facts, having an opinion is an art ! > > -Original Message- > Sent: Tuesday, August 19, 2003 11:40 AM > To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L > > > I've developped 3 functions for fined-grain access control and the users > have tested them. > There are only 3-4 users in the acceptance env. and I did not noticed > anything. > > What version are you running and how many users ? > We're on 8172 > > Someday it will go in production here... > > > > > Stephane Paquette > > > Administrateur de bases de donnees > > Database Administrator > > Standard Life > > www.standardlife.ca > > Tel.
