SQL*Plus: Release 11.2.0.1.0 Production on Mon Jul 28 14:33:30 2014

SQL> show parameter cursor_sharing;

NAME
------------------------------------
TYPE
----------------------------------------------------------------
VALUE
------------------------------
cursor_sharing
string
SIMILAR

问了下开发人员，有没有写成上述绑定变量的sql语句，开发人员反馈没有，那么这个问题可能是这样引起的，因为修改参数cursor_sharing从exact变为了similar后，导致了sql语句被重新改写成bind value的形式，按理说这个应该是为了减少硬解析，但是确造成了version_count high现象，也就是一个父游标下多个子游标，造成了library cache latch、library cache lock，library cache pin等等待时间。

High Version Count with CURSOR_SHARING = SIMILAR or FORCE (文档 ID 261020.1)
? Significant database time spent waiting for library cache latch
? High parse rates in AWR/Statspack reports
? High version counts in AWR/Statspack reports
? cursor_sharing = SIMILAR
? Intermittent database-wide slowdowns
? STATSPACK, AWR or V$SQLAREA shows a high version count on cursors that have bind replacement done due to CURSOR_SHARING=SIMILAR or FORCE.
? V$SQL_SHARED_CURSOR does not show any reason why this is happening.
? the number of children could keep on increasing until the shared pool is filled. In some cases, if the number gets past 1024 a new hash value is created for the next set of 1024.

High version counts can easily cause high contention for library cache latches. A process parsing a SQL statement with many versions (children cursors) will need to scan
through all these children while holding on to a library cache latch. This means that other processes needing the same latch will have to wait and can lead to significant database-wide performance degradation.

Changes:
CURSOR_SHARING has been changed to SIMILAR or FORCE.

Cause:
SELECT sql_text,version_count,address
FROM V$SQLAREA
WHERE sql_text like 'select /* TEST */%';

SQL_TEXT
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
VERSION_COUNT ADDRESS
------------- --------
select /* TEST */ * from emp where sal > :"SYS_B_0"
5 80EE4BF0

SELECT * FROM V$SQL_SHARED_CURSOR WHERE kglhdpar = '80EE4BF0';

ADDRESS KGLHDPAR U S O O S L S E B P I S T A B D L T R I I R L I O S M U T
-------- -------- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
80FBD50C 80EE4BF0 N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N
80EE816C 80EE4BF0 N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N N
....

If CURSOR_SHARING=SIMILAR, this could be expected behavior.

The difference between SIMILAR and FORCE is that SIMILAR forces similar statements to share the SQL area without deteriorating execution plans.

SIMILAR causes statements that may differ in some literals, but are otherwise identical, to share a cursor, unless the literals affect either the meaning of the statement or the degree to which the plan is optimized. In this case the literal is marked "unsafe" to be shared and the cursor will not be shared.

In the above example, the literal which is being replaced in the predicate:
sal > :"SYS_B_0"
is unsafe because the execution plan depends on its value.
Why Do Statements Using Literals Not Share When Cursor_Sharing=Similar? (文档 ID 364845.1)

Inequality & cursor_sharing = SIMILAR example
? Starting with cursor_sharing = similar run a SQL with a literal.
The literal will be replaces with a bind due to 'similar':

alter session set cursor_sharing = similar;
Session altered.

select count(*) from t1 where i > 10;
COUNT(*)
----------
9990

select sql_text,version_count
from v$sqlarea
where sql_text like 'select count(*) from t1 where%';

SQL_TEXT VERSION_COUNT
-------------------------------------------- ---------------
select count(*) from t1 where i > :"SYS_B_0" 1

Query results in a single version in the shared pool with a generated bind for the value: :"SYS_B_0".

? Same query run with a different literal:
select count(*) from t1 where i > 20;
COUNT(*)
----------
9980

SQL_TEXT VERSION_COUNT
-------------------------------------------- ---------------
select count(*) from t1 where i > :"SYS_B_0" 2

Notice we now have a second version of the cursor for the second value
? If we try with another couple of different literals:

select count(*) from t1 where i > 30;
COUNT(*)
----------
9970

SQL_TEXT VERSION_COUNT
-------------------------------------------- ---------------
select count(*) from t1 where i > :"SYS_B_0" 3

select count(*) from t1 where i > 40;
COUNT(*)
----------
9960

SQL_TEXT VERSION_COUNT
-------------------------------------------- ---------------
select count(*) from t1 where i > :"SYS_B_0" 4

? So cursor_sharing = SIMILAR does not share cursor when inequality predicates are used
Inequality & cursor_sharing = FORCE example
? Set cursor_sharing = FORCE

Restart Database

SQL> alter session set cursor_sharing = force;
Session altered.

SQL> select count(*) from t1 where i > 10;
COUNT(*)
----------
9990

SQL> select sql_text,version_count from v$sqlarea where
2 sql_text like 'select count(*) from t1 where%';

SQL_TEXT VERSION_COUNT
-------------------------------------------- ---------------
select count(*) from t1 where i > :"SYS_B_0" 1

The first time the version count is the same as with the SIMILAR example
? However with subsequent different values the same cursor is used:

SQL> select count(*) from t1 where i > 20;
COUNT(*)
----------
9980

SQL_TEXT VERSION_COUNT
-------------------------------------------- ---------------
select count(*) from t1 where i > :"SYS_B_0" 1

SQL> select count(*) from t1 where i > 30;
COUNT(*)
----------
9970

SQL_TEXT VERSION_COUNT
-------------------------------------------- ---------------
select count(*) from t1 where i > :"SYS_B_0" 1

SQL> select count(*) from t1 where i > 40;
COUNT(*)
----------
9960

SQL_TEXT VERSION_COUNT
-------------------------------------------- ---------------
select count(*) from t1 where i > :"SYS_B_0" 1

Note that with FORCE, the version count remains at 1 meaning that the cursor is shared even with inequality predicate when cursor_sharing = FORCE .

通过上面两篇mos的文章我们基本清楚了，当cursor_sharing=similar时，对于非等的谓词比较，优化器会产生多个子游标（version_count high），也就造成了每次解析sql时都需要遍历这个父游标下的子游标的，其实也就造成了library cache latch、library cache pin、library cache lock等等待事件。

下面对cursor_sharing参数进行一些简单的测试：
SQL> select * from v$version;

这里发现在oracle 10.2.0.4版本中无论是谓词等值还是非等值比较，即使谓词的列的值不影响sql的执行计划，也会产生多个子游标。

看来这个和oracle 10.2.0.4版本一样，都存在上述的问题，这个也是我们在网络上看见很多文章或者案例提到cursor_sharing设置为similar和force带来的隐患，有很多的类似的oracle bug，所以这里我们需要将参数cursor_sharing设置为exact或者force即可，而关于为什么子游标不共享，可以参考v$sql_shared_cursor视图。
