I've not done a turnaround at PVG, but the times I have had a connection at PVG, I have had to clear immigration and then go upstairs and go through passport control. YMMV, though.
A handful of airline combinations support efficient transfers (e.g. nz/vs comes to mind), but the list is always changing to the extent that you should always plan on entering and exiting China.
