* Get rid of our dependency on type "long" for memory size calculations.Tom Lane2025-01-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Consistently use "Size" (or size_t, or in some places int64 or double) as the type for variables holding memory allocation sizes. In most places variables' data types were fine already, but we had an ancient habit of computing bytes from kilobytes-units GUCs with code like "work_mem * 1024L". That risks overflow on Win64 where they did not make "long" as wide as "size_t". We worked around that by restricting such GUCs' ranges, so you couldn't set work_mem et al higher than 2GB on Win64. This patch removes that restriction, after replacing such calculations with "work_mem * (Size) 1024" or variants of that. It should be noted that this patch was constructed by searching outwards from the GUCs that have MAX_KILOBYTES as upper limit. So I can't positively guarantee there are no other places doing memory-size arithmetic in int or long variables. I do however feel pretty confident that increasing MAX_KILOBYTES on Win64 is safe now. Also, nothing in our code should be dealing in multiple-gigabyte allocations without authorization from a relevant GUC, so it seems pretty likely that this search caught everything that could be at risk of overflow.

* Remove unused #include's from backend .c filesPeter Eisentraut2024-03-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | as determined by include-what-you-use (IWYU) While IWYU also suggests to *add* a bunch of #include's (which is its main purpose), this patch does not do that. In some cases, a more specific #include replaces another less specific one. Some manual adjustments of the automatic result: - IWYU currently doesn't know about includes that provide global variable declarations (like -Wmissing-variable-declarations), so those includes are being kept manually. - All includes for port(ability) headers are being kept for now, to play it safe. - No changes of catalog/pg_foo.h to catalog/pg_foo_d.h, to keep the patch from exploding in size. Note that this patch touches just *.c files, so nothing declared in header files changes in hidden ways. As a small example, in src/backend/access/transam/rmgr.c, some IWYU pragma annotations are added to handle a special case there.

* Fix ordering issue with WAL operations in GIN fast insert pathMichael Paquier2022-10-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Contrary to what is documented in src/backend/access/transam/README, ginHeapTupleFastInsert() had a few ordering issues with the way it does its WAL operations when inserting items in its fast path. First, when using a separate list, XLogBeginInsert() was being always called before START_CRIT_SECTION(), and in this case a second thing was wrong when merging lists, as an exclusive lock was taken on the tail page *before* calling XLogBeginInsert(). Finally, when inserting items into a tail page, the order of XLogBeginInsert() and START_CRIT_SECTION() was reversed. This commit addresses all these issues by moving the calls of XLogBeginInsert() after all the pages logged are locked and pinned, within a critical section.

* Change internal RelFileNode references to RelFileNumber or RelFileLocator.Robert Haas2022-07-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We have been using the term RelFileNode to refer to either (1) the integer that is used to name the sequence of files for a certain relation within the directory set aside for that tablespace/database combination; or (2) that value plus the OIDs of the tablespace and database; or occasionally (3) the whole series of files created for a relation based on those values. Using the same name for more than one thing is confusing. Replace RelFileNode with RelFileNumber when we're talking about just the single number, i.e. (1) from above, and with RelFileLocator when we're talking about all the things that are needed to locate a relation's files on disk, i.e. (2) from above. In the places where we refer to (3) as a relfilenode, instead refer to "relation storage". Since there is a ton of SQL code in the world that knows about pg_class.relfilenode, don't change the name of that column, or of other SQL-facing things that derive their name from it. On the other hand, do adjust closely-related internal terminology. For example, the structure member names dbNode and spcNode appear to be derived from the fact that the structure itself was called RelFileNode, so change those to dbOid and spcOid. Likewise, various variables with names like rnode and relnode get renamed appropriately, according to how they're being used in context. Hopefully, this is clearer than before. It is also preparation for future patches that intend to widen the relfilenumber fields from its current width of 32 bits. Variables that store a relfilenumber are now declared as type RelFileNumber rather than type Oid; right now, these are the same, but that can now more easily be changed. Dilip Kumar, per an idea from me. Reviewed also by Andres Freund. I fixed some whitespace issues, changed a couple of words in a comment, and made one other minor correction.

* Make queries' locking of indexes more consistent.Tom Lane2019-04-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The assertions added by commit b04aeb0a0 exposed that there are some code paths wherein the executor will try to open an index without holding any lock on it. We do have some lock on the index's table, so it seems likely that there's no fatal problem with this (for instance, the index couldn't get dropped from under us). Still, it's bad practice and we should fix it. To do so, remove the optimizations in ExecInitIndexScan and friends that tried to avoid taking a lock on an index belonging to a target relation, and just take the lock always. In non-bug cases, this will result in no additional shared-memory access, since we'll find in the local lock table that we already have a lock of the desired type; hence, no significant performance degradation should occur. Also, adjust the planner and executor so that the type of lock taken on an index is always identical to the type of lock taken for its table, by relying on the recently added RangeTblEntry.rellockmode field. This avoids some corner cases where that might not have been true before (possibly resulting in extra locking overhead), and prevents future maintenance issues from having multiple bits of logic that all needed to be in sync. In addition, this change removes all core calls to ExecRelationIsTargetRelation, which avoids a possible O(N^2) startup penalty for queries with large numbers of target relations. (We'd probably remove that function altogether, were it not that we advertise it as something that FDWs might want to use.) Also adjust some places in selfuncs.c to not take any lock on indexes they are transiently opening, since we can assume that plancat.c did that already. In passing, change gin_clean_pending_list() to take RowExclusiveLock not AccessShareLock on its target index. Although it's not clear that that's actually a bug, it seemed very strange for a function that's explicitly going to modify the index to use only AccessShareLock.

* Avoid using potentially-under-aligned page buffers.Tom Lane2018-09-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There's a project policy against using plain "char buf[BLCKSZ]" local or static variables as page buffers; preferred style is to palloc or malloc each buffer to ensure it is MAXALIGN'd. However, that policy's been ignored in an increasing number of places. We've apparently got away with it so far, probably because (a) relatively few people use platforms on which misalignment causes core dumps and/or (b) the variables chance to be sufficiently aligned anyway. But this is not something to rely on. Moreover, even if we don't get a core dump, we might be paying a lot of cycles for misaligned accesses. To fix, invent new union types PGAlignedBlock and PGAlignedXLogBlock that the compiler must allocate with sufficient alignment, and use those in place of plain char arrays. I used these types even for variables where there's no risk of a misaligned access, since ensuring proper alignment should make kernel data transfers faster. I also changed some places where we had been palloc'ing short-lived buffers, for coding style uniformity and to save palloc/pfree overhead. Since this seems to be a live portability hazard (despite the lack of field reports), back-patch to all supported versions. Patch by me; thanks to Michael Paquier for review.

* Re-think predicate locking on GIN indexes.Teodor Sigaev2018-05-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The principle behind the locking was not very well thought-out, and not documented. Add a section in the README to explain how it's supposed to work, and change the code so that it actually works that way. This fixes two bugs: 1. If fast update was turned on concurrently, subsequent inserts to the pending list would not conflict with predicate locks that were acquired earlier, on entry pages. The included 'predicate-gin-fastupdate' test demonstrates that. To fix, make all scans acquire a predicate lock on the metapage. That lock represents a scan of the pending list, whether or not there is a pending list at the moment. Forget about the optimization to skip locking/checking for locks, when fastupdate=off. 2. If a scan finds no match, it still needs to lock the entry page. The point of predicate locks is to lock the gabs between values, whether or not there is a match. The included 'predicate-gin-nomatch' test tests that case. In addition to those two bug fixes, this removes some unnecessary locking, following the principle laid out in the README. Because all items in a posting tree have the same key value, a lock on the posting tree root is enough to cover all the items. (With a very large posting tree, it would possibly be better to lock the posting tree leaf pages instead, so that a "skip scan" with a query like "A & B", you could avoid unnecessary conflict if a new tuple is inserted with A but !B. But let's keep this simple.) Also, some spelling fixes.

* Set the metapage's pd_lower correctly in brin, gin, and spgist indexes.Tom Lane2017-11-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, these index types left the pd_lower field set to the default SizeOfPageHeaderData, which is really a lie because it ought to point past whatever space is being used for metadata. The coding accidentally failed to fail because we never told xlog.c that the metapage is of standard format --- but that's not very good, because it impedes WAL consistency checking, and in some cases prevents compression of full-page images. To fix, ensure that we set pd_lower correctly, not only when creating a metapage but whenever we write it out (these apparently redundant steps are needed to cope with pg_upgrade'd indexes that don't yet contain the right value). This allows telling xlog.c that the page is of standard format. The WAL consistency check mask functions are made to mask only if pd_lower appears valid, which I think is likely unnecessary complication, since any metapage appearing in a v11 WAL stream should contain valid pd_lower. But it doesn't cost much to be paranoid. Amit Langote, reviewed by Michael Paquier and Amit Kapila Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/0d273805-0e9e-ec1a-cb84-d4da400b8f85@lab.ntt.co.jp
* Phase 3 of pgindent updates.Tom Lane2017-06-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Don't move parenthesized lines to the left, even if that means they flow past the right margin. By default, BSD indent lines up statement continuation lines that are within parentheses so that they start just to the right of the preceding left parenthesis. However, traditionally, if that resulted in the continuation line extending to the right of the desired right margin, then indent would push it left just far enough to not overrun the margin, if it could do so without making the continuation line start to the left of the current statement indent. That makes for a weird mix of indentations unless one has been completely rigid about never violating the 80-column limit. This behavior has been pretty universally panned by Postgres developers. Hence, disable it with indent's new -lpl switch, so that parenthesized lines are always lined up with the preceding left paren. This patch is much less interesting than the first round of indent changes, but also bulkier, so I thought it best to separate the effects.

* Phase 2 of pgindent updates.Tom Lane2017-06-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Change pg_bsd_indent to follow upstream rules for placement of comments to the right of code, and remove pgindent hack that caused comments following #endif to not obey the general rule. Commit e3860ffa4dd0dad0dd9eea4be9cc1412373a8c89 wasn't actually using the published version of pg_bsd_indent, but a hacked-up version that tried to minimize the amount of movement of comments to the right of code. The situation of interest is where such a comment has to be moved to the right of its default placement at column 33 because there's code there. BSD indent has always moved right in units of tab stops in such cases --- but in the previous incarnation, indent was working in 8-space tab stops, while now it knows we use 4-space tabs. So the net result is that in about half the cases, such comments are placed one tab stop left of before. This is better all around: it leaves more room on the line for comment text, and it means that in such cases the comment uniformly starts at the next 4-space tab stop after the code, rather than sometimes one and sometimes two tabs after. Also, ensure that comments following #endif are indented the same as comments following other preprocessor commands such as #else. That inconsistency turns out to have been self-inflicted damage from a poorly-thought-through post-indent "fixup" in pgindent. This patch is much less interesting than the first round of indent changes, but also bulkier, so I thought it best to separate the effects.

* Add macros to make AllocSetContextCreate() calls simpler and safer.Tom Lane2016-08-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I found that half a dozen (nearly 5%) of our AllocSetContextCreate calls had typos in the context-sizing parameters. While none of these led to especially significant problems, they did create minor inefficiencies, and it's now clear that expecting people to copy-and-paste those calls accurately is not a great idea. Let's reduce the risk of future errors by introducing single macros that encapsulate the common use-cases. Three such macros are enough to cover all but two special-purpose contexts; those two calls can be left as-is, I think. While this patch doesn't in itself improve matters for third-party extensions, it doesn't break anything for them either, and they can gradually adopt the simplified notation over time. In passing, change TopMemoryContext to use the default allocation parameters. Formerly it could only be extended 8K at a time. That was probably reasonable when this code was written; but nowadays we create many more contexts than we did then, so that it's not unusual to have a couple hundred K in TopMemoryContext, even without considering various dubious code that sticks other things there. There seems no good reason not to let it use growing blocks like most other contexts. Back-patch to 9.6, mostly because that's still close enough to HEAD that it's easy to do so, and keeping the branches in sync can be expected to avoid some future back-patching pain. The bugs fixed by these changes don't seem to be significant enough to justify fixing them further back. Discussion: <21072.1472321324@sss.pgh.pa.us>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, ginInsertCleanup could exit early if it detects that someone else is cleaning up the pending list, without waiting for that someone else to finish the job. But in this case vacuum could miss tuples to be deleted. Cleanup process now locks metapage with a help of heavyweight LockPage(ExclusiveLock), and it guarantees that there is no another cleanup process at the same time. Lock is taken differently depending on caller of cleanup process: any vacuums and gin_clean_pending_list() will be blocked until lock becomes available, ordinary insert uses conditional lock to prevent indefinite waiting on lock. Insert into pending list doesn't use this lock, so insertion isn't blocked. Also, patch adds stopping of cleanup process when at-start-cleanup-tail is reached in order to prevent infinite cleanup in case of massive insertion. But it will stop only for automatic maintenance tasks like autovacuum. Patch introduces choice of limit of memory to use: autovacuum_work_mem, maintenance_work_mem or work_mem depending on call path. Patch for previous releases should be reworked due to changes between 9.6 and previous ones in this area.

* Revert no-op changes to BufferGetPage()Kevin Grittner2016-04-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The reverted changes were intended to force a choice of whether any newly-added BufferGetPage() calls needed to be accompanied by a test of the snapshot age, to support the "snapshot too old" feature. Such an accompanying test is needed in about 7% of the cases, where the page is being used as part of a scan rather than positioning for other purposes (such as DML or vacuuming). The additional effort required for back-patching, and the doubt whether the intended benefit would really be there, have indicated it is best just to rely on developers to do the right thing based on comments and existing usage, as we do with many other conventions. This change should have little or no effect on generated executable code. Motivated by the back-patching pain of Tom Lane and Robert Haas
* Modify BufferGetPage() to prepare for "snapshot too old" featureKevin Grittner2016-04-08
| | | | | | | | | | | This patch is a no-op patch which is intended to reduce the chances of failures of omission once the functional part of the "snapshot too old" patch goes in. It adds parameters for snapshot, relation, and an enum to specify whether the snapshot age check needs to be done for the page at this point. This initial patch passes NULL for the first two new parameters and BGP_NO_SNAPSHOT_TEST for the third. The follow-on patch will change the places where the test needs to be made.

* Add gin_clean_pending_list function to clean up GIN pending listFujii Masao2016-01-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This function cleans up the pending list of the GIN index by moving entries in it to the main GIN data structure in bulk. It returns the number of pages cleaned up from the pending list. This function is useful, for example, when the pending list needs to be cleaned up *quickly* to improve the performance of the search using GIN index. VACUUM can do the same thing, too, but it may take days to run on a large table. Jeff Janes, reviewed by Julien Rouhaud, Jaime Casanova, Alvaro Herrera and me.

* Make GIN's cleanup pending list process interruptableTeodor Sigaev2015-09-07
| | | | | | | | | | | Cleanup process could be called by ordinary insert/update and could take a lot of time. Add vacuum_delay_point() to make this process interruptable. Under vacuum this call will also throttle a vacuum process to decrease system load, called from insert/update it will not throttle, and that reduces a latency. Backpatch for all supported branches.

* Add pages deleted from pending list to FSMTeodor Sigaev2015-09-07
| | | | | | | | | Add pages deleted from GIN's pending list during cleanup to free space map immediately. Clean up process could be initiated by ordinary insert but adding page to FSM might occur only at vacuum. On some workload like never-vacuumed insert-only tables it could cause a huge bloat.
