* Fix one-off bug causing missing commit timestamps for subtransactionsMichael Paquier2022-01-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The logic in charge of writing commit timestamps (enabled with track_commit_timestamp) for subtransactions had a one-bug bug, where it would be possible that commit timestamps go missing for the last subtransaction committed. While on it, simplify a bit the iteration logic in the loop writing the commit timestamps, as per suggestions from Kyotaro Horiguchi and Tom Lane, so as some variable initializations are not part of the loop itself. Issue introduced in 73c986a.

* Remove COMMIT_TS_SETTS record.Fujii Masao2021-04-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 438fc4a39c prevented the WAL replay from writing COMMIT_TS_SETTS record. By this change there is no code that generates COMMIT_TS_SETTS record in PostgreSQL core. Also we can think that there are no extensions using the record because we've not received so far any complaints about the issue that commit 438fc4a39c fixed. Therefore this commit removes COMMIT_TS_SETTS record and its related code. Even without this record, the timestamp required for commit timestamp feature can be acquired from the COMMIT record.

* Fix bug in WAL replay of COMMIT_TS_SETTS record.Fujii Masao2021-03-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously the WAL replay of COMMIT_TS_SETTS record called TransactionTreeSetCommitTsData() with the argument write_xlog=true, which generated and wrote new COMMIT_TS_SETTS record.

* Prevent excess SimpleLruTruncate() deletion.Noah Misch2021-01-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Every core SLRU wraps around. With the exception of pg_notify, the wrap point can fall in the middle of a page. Account for this in the PagePrecedes callback specification and in SimpleLruTruncate()'s use of said callback. Update each callback implementation to fit the new specification. This changes SerialPagePrecedesLogically() from the style of asyncQueuePagePrecedes() to the style of CLOGPagePrecedes(). (Whereas pg_clog and pg_serial share a key space, pg_serial is nothing like pg_notify.) The bug fixed here has the same symptoms and user followup steps as 592a589a04bd456410b853d86bd05faa9432cbbb.

* Defer flushing of SLRU files.Thomas Munro2020-09-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, we called fsync() after writing out individual pg_xact, pg_multixact and pg_commit_ts pages due to cache pressure, leading to regular I/O stalls in user backends and recovery. Collapse requests for the same file into a single system call as part of the next checkpoint, as we already did for relation files, using the infrastructure developed by commit 3eb77eba. This can cause a significant improvement to recovery performance, especially when it's otherwise CPU-bound. Hoist ProcessSyncRequests() up into CheckPointGuts() to make it clearer that it applies to all the SLRU mini-buffer-pools as well as the main buffer pool. Rearrange things so that data collected in CheckpointStats includes SLRU activity. Also remove the Shutdown{CLOG,CommitTS,SUBTRANS,MultiXact}() functions, because they were redundant after the shutdown checkpoint that immediately precedes them. (I'm not sure if they were ever needed, but they aren't now.)

* Rename SLRU structures and associated LWLocks.Tom Lane2020-05-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Originally, the names assigned to SLRUs had no purpose other than being shmem lookup keys, so not a lot of thought went into them. As of v13, though, we're exposing them in the pg_stat_slru view and the pg_stat_reset_slru function, so it seems advisable to take a bit more care. Rename them to names based on the associated on-disk storage directories (which fortunately we *did* think about, to some extent; since those are also visible to DBAs, consistency seems like a good thing). Also rename the associated LWLocks, since those names are likewise user-exposed now as wait event names. For the most part I only touched symbols used in the respective modules' SimpleLruInit() calls, not the names of other related objects. This renaming could have been taken further, and maybe someday we will do so. But for now it seems undesirable to change the names of any globally visible functions or structs, so some inconsistency is unavoidable. (But I *did* terminate "oldserxid" with prejudice, as I found that name both unreadable and not descriptive of the SLRU's contents.) Table 27.12 needs re-alphabetization now, but I'll leave that till after the other LWLock renamings I have in mind. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/28683.1589405363@sss.pgh.pa.us

* Add basic infrastructure for 64 bit transaction IDs.Thomas Munro2019-03-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Instead of inferring epoch progress from xids and checkpoints, introduce a 64 bit FullTransactionId type and use it to track xid generation. This fixes an unlikely bug where the epoch is reported incorrectly if the range of active xids wraps around more than once between checkpoints. The only user-visible effect of this commit is to correct the epoch used by txid_current() and txid_status(), also visible with pg_controldata, in those rare circumstances. It also creates some basic infrastructure so that later patches can use 64 bit transaction IDs in more places. The new type is a struct that we pass by value, as a form of strong typedef. This prevents the sort of accidental confusion between TransactionId and FullTransactionId that would be possible if we were to use a plain old uint64.

* Remove WITH OIDS support, change oid catalog column visibility.Andres Freund2018-11-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously tables declared WITH OIDS, including a significant fraction of the catalog tables, stored the oid column not as a normal column, but as part of the tuple header. This special column was not shown by default, which was somewhat odd, as it's often (consider e.g. pg_class.oid) one of the more important parts of a row. Neither pg_dump nor COPY included the contents of the oid column by default. The fact that the oid column was not an ordinary column necessitated a significant amount of special case code to support oid columns. That already was painful for the existing, but upcoming work aiming to make table storage pluggable, would have required expanding and duplicating that "specialness" significantly. WITH OIDS has been deprecated since 2005 (commit ff02d0a05280e0). Remove it. Removing includes: - CREATE TABLE and ALTER TABLE syntax for declaring the table to be WITH OIDS has been removed (WITH (oids[ = true]) will error out) - pg_dump does not support dumping tables declared WITH OIDS and will issue a warning when dumping one (and ignore the oid column). - restoring an pg_dump archive with pg_restore will warn when restoring a table with oid contents (and ignore the oid column) - COPY will refuse to load binary dump that includes oids. - pg_upgrade will error out when encountering tables declared WITH OIDS, they have to be altered to remove the oid column first. - Functionality to access the oid of the last inserted row (like plpgsql's RESULT_OID, spi's SPI_lastoid, ...) has been removed. The syntax for declaring a table WITHOUT OIDS (or WITH (oids = false) for CREATE TABLE) is still supported. While that requires a bit of support code, it seems unnecessary to break applications / dumps that do not use oids, and are explicit about not using them. The biggest user of WITH OID columns was postgres' catalog. This commit changes all 'magic' oid columns to be columns that are normally declared and stored. To reduce unnecessary query breakage all the newly added columns are still named 'oid', even if a table's column naming scheme would indicate 'reloid' or such. This obviously requires adapting a lot code, mostly replacing oid access via HeapTupleGetOid() with access to the underlying Form_pg_*->oid column. The bootstrap process now assigns oids for all oid columns in genbki.pl that do not have an explicit value (starting at the largest oid previously used), only oids assigned later by oids will be above FirstBootstrapObjectId. As the oid column now is a normal column the special bootstrap syntax for oids has been removed. Oids are not automatically assigned during insertion anymore, all backend code explicitly assigns oids with GetNewOidWithIndex(). For the rare case that insertions into the catalog via SQL are called for the new pg_nextoid() function can be used (which only works on catalog tables). The fact that oid columns on system tables are now normal columns means that they will be included in the set of columns expanded by * (i.e. SELECT * FROM pg_class will now include the table's oid, previously it did not). It'd not technically be hard to hide oid column by default, but that'd mean confusing behavior would either have to be carried forward forever, or it'd cause breakage down the line. While it's not unlikely that further adjustments are needed, the scope/invasiveness of the patch makes it worthwhile to get merge this now. It's painful to maintain externally, too complicated to commit after the code code freeze, and a dependency of a number of other patches. Catversion bump, for obvious reasons.

* Rework activation of commit timestamps during recoveryMichael Paquier2018-09-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The activation and deactivation of commit timestamp tracking has not been handled consistently for a primary or standbys at recovery. The facility can be activated at three different moments of recovery: - The beginning, where a primary would use the GUC value for the decision-making, and where a standby relies on the contents of the control file. - When replaying a XLOG_PARAMETER_CHANGE record at redo. - The end, where both primary and standby rely on the GUC value. Using the GUC value for a primary at the beginning of recovery causes problems with commit timestamp access when doing crash recovery. Particularly, when replaying transaction commits, it could be possible that an attempt to read commit timestamps is done for a transaction which committed at a moment when track_commit_timestamp was disabled. A test case is added to reproduce the failure. The test works down to v11 as it takes advantage of transaction commits within procedures.

* 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.

* Fix race condition in reading commit timestampsAlvaro Herrera2017-01-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If a user requests the commit timestamp for a transaction old enough that its data is concurrently being truncated away by vacuum at just the right time, they would receive an ugly internal file-not-found error message from slru.c rather than the expected NULL return value. In a primary server, the window for the race is very small: the lookup has to occur exactly between the two calls by vacuum, and there's not a lot that happens between them (mostly just a multixact truncate). In a standby server, however, the window is larger because the truncation is executed as soon as the WAL record for it is replayed, but the advance of the oldest-Xid is not executed until the next checkpoint record. To fix in the primary, simply reverse the order of operations in vac_truncate_clog. To fix in the standby, augment the WAL truncation record so that the standby is aware of the new oldest-XID value and can apply the update immediately. WAL version bumped because of this. No backpatch, because of the low importance of the bug and its rarity.

This patch fixes both those misbehaviors hopefully without re-introducing any old problems. Also change the hint emitted in a standby together with the error message about the feature being disabled, to make it point out that the place to chance the setting is the master.

Replay WAL records affecting commitTS even if the feature is disabled. This means the standby will always have the same state as the master after replay. 3. Have COMMIT PREPARE record the transaction commit time as well. We were previously only applying it in the normal transaction commit path.

Backpatch to 9.5, where this code was introduced. Per bug reports from Fujii Masao and subsequent discussion.
* Do not allow *timestamp to be passed as NULLAlvaro Herrera2015-08-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The code had bugs that would cause crashes if NULL was passed as that argument (originally intended to mean not to bother returning its value), and after inspection it turns out that nothing seems interested in the case that *ts is NULL anyway. Therefore, remove the partial checks intended to support that case. Author: Michael Paquier though I didn't include a proposed Assert. Backpatch to 9.5.

* Collection of typo fixes.Heikki Linnakangas2015-05-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Use "a" and "an" correctly, mostly in comments. Two error messages were also fixed (they were just elogs, so no translation work required). Two function comments in pg_proc.h were also fixed. Etsuro Fujita reported one of these, but I found a lot more with grep. Also fix a few other typos spotted while grepping for the a/an typos. For example, "consists out of ..." -> "consists of ...". Plus a "though"/ "through" mixup reported by Euler Taveira. Many of these typos were in old code, which would be nice to backpatch to make future backpatching easier. But much of the code was new, and I didn't feel like crafting separate patches for each branch. So no backpatching.
* Introduce replication progress tracking infrastructure.Andres Freund2015-04-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When implementing a replication solution ontop of logical decoding, two related problems exist: * How to safely keep track of replication progress * How to change replication behavior, based on the origin of a row; e.g. to avoid loops in bi-directional replication setups The solution to these problems, as implemented here, consist out of three parts: 1) 'replication origins', which identify nodes in a replication setup. 2) 'replication progress tracking', which remembers, for each replication origin, how far replay has progressed in a efficient and crash safe manner. 3) The ability to filter out changes performed on the behest of a replication origin during logical decoding; this allows complex replication topologies. E.g. by filtering all replayed changes out. Most of this could also be implemented in "userspace", e.g. by inserting additional rows contain origin information, but that ends up being much less efficient and more complicated. We don't want to require various replication solutions to reimplement logic for this independently. The infrastructure is intended to be generic enough to be reusable. This infrastructure also replaces the 'nodeid' infrastructure of commit timestamps. It is intended to provide all the former capabilities, except that there's only 2^16 different origins; but now they integrate with logical decoding. Additionally more functionality is accessible via SQL. Since the commit timestamp infrastructure has also been introduced in 9.5 (commit 73c986add) changing the API is not a problem. For now the number of origins for which the replication progress can be tracked simultaneously is determined by the max_replication_slots GUC. That GUC is not a perfect match to configure this, but there doesn't seem to be sufficient reason to introduce a separate new one. Bumps both catversion and wal page magic.

* Keep CommitTs module in sync in standby and masterAlvaro Herrera2015-03-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We allow this module to be turned off on restarts, so a restart time check is enough to activate or deactivate the module; however, if there is a standby replaying WAL emitted from a master which is restarted, but the standby isn't, the state in the standby becomes inconsistent and can easily be crashed. Fix by activating and deactivating the module during WAL replay on parameter change as well as on system start.
