We use a hash table to track the parents of inner pages, but when inserting
to a leaf page, the caller of gistbufferinginserttuples() must pass a
correct block number of the leaf's parent page. Before gistProcessItup()
descends to a child page, it checks if the downlink needs to be adjusted to
accommodate the new tuple, and updates the downlink if necessary. However,
updating the downlink might require splitting the page, which might move the
downlink to a page to the right. gistProcessItup() doesn't realize that, so
when it descends to the leaf page, it might pass an out-of-date parent block
number as a result. Fix that by returning the block a tuple was inserted to
from gistbufferinginserttuples().
This fixes the bug reported by Zdeněk Jílovec.

Cascading replication copied the incoming file into pg_xlog but
didn't set path correctly, so the first attempt to open file failed
causing it to loop around and look for file in pg_xlog. So the
earlier coding worked, but accidentally rather than by design.

This was broken in commit ed0b409d22346b1b027a4c2099ca66984d94b6dd,
which revised the GlobalTransactionData struct to not include the
associated PGPROC as its first member, but overlooked one place where
a cast was used in reliance on that equivalence.
The most effective way of fixing this seems to be to create a new function
that looks up the GlobalTransactionData struct given the XID, and make
both TwoPhaseGetDummyBackendId and TwoPhaseGetDummyProc rely on that.

As noted by Noah Misch, btree_xlog_delete_get_latestRemovedXid is
critically dependent on the assumption that it's examining a consistent
state of the database. This was undocumented though, so the
seemingly-unrelated check for no active HS sessions might be thought to be
merely an optional optimization. Improve comments, and add an explicit
check of reachedConsistency just to be sure.
This function returns InvalidTransactionId (thereby killing all HS
transactions) in several cases that are not nearly unlikely enough for my
taste. This commit doesn't attempt to fix those deficiencies, just
document them.
Back-patch to 9.2, not from any real functional need but just to keep the
branches more closely synced to simplify possible future back-patching.

In yesterday's commit 962e0cc71e839c58fb9125fa85511b8bbb8bdbee, I added the
ResolveRecoveryConflictWithSnapshot call in the wrong place. I correctly
put it before spgRedoVacuumRedirect itself would modify the index page ---
but not before RestoreBkpBlocks, so replay of a record with a full-page
image would modify the page before kicking off any conflicting HS
transactions. Oops.

The correct test for whether a redirection tuple is removable is whether
tuple's xid < RecentGlobalXmin, not OldestXmin; the previous coding
failed to protect index searches being done in concurrent transactions that
have no XID. This mirrors the recent fix in btree's page recycling logic
made in commit d3abbbebe52eb1e59e621c880ad57df9d40d13f2.
Also, WAL-log the newest XID of any removed redirection tuple on an index
page, and apply ResolveRecoveryConflictWithSnapshot during InHotStandby WAL
replay. This protects against concurrent Hot Standby transactions possibly
needing to see the redirection tuple(s).
Per my query of 2012-03-12 and subsequent discussion.

mdinit() was misusing IsBootstrapProcessingMode() to decide whether to
create an fsync pending-operations table in the current process. This led
to creating a table not only in the startup and checkpointer processes as
intended, but also in the bgwriter process, not to mention other auxiliary
processes such as walwriter and walreceiver. Creation of the table in the
bgwriter is fatal, because it absorbs fsync requests that should have gone
to the checkpointer; instead they just sit in bgwriter local memory and are
never acted on. So writes performed by the bgwriter were not being fsync'd
which could result in data loss after an OS crash. I think there is no
live bug with respect to walwriter and walreceiver because those never
perform any writes of shared buffers; but the potential is there for
future breakage in those processes too.
To fix, make AuxiliaryProcessMain() export the current process's
AuxProcType as a global variable, and then make mdinit() test directly for
the types of aux process that should have a pendingOpsTable. Having done
that, we might as well also get rid of the random bool flags such as
am_walreceiver that some of the aux processes had grown. (Note that we
could not have fixed the bug by examining those variables in mdinit(),
because it's called from BaseInit() which is run by AuxiliaryProcessMain()
before entering any of the process-type-specific code.)
Back-patch to 9.2, where the problem was introduced by the split-up of
bgwriter and checkpointer processes. The bogus pendingOpsTable exists
in walwriter and walreceiver processes in earlier branches, but absent
any evidence that it causes actual problems there, I'll leave the older
branches alone.

Instead of letting every backend participating in a group commit wait
independently, have the first one that becomes ready to flush WAL wait
for the configured delay, and let all the others wait just long enough
for that first process to complete its flush. This greatly increases
the chances of being able to configure a commit_delay setting that
actually improves performance.
As a side consequence of this change, commit_delay now affects all WAL
flushes, rather than just commits. There was some discussion on
pgsql-hackers about whether to rename the GUC to, say, wal_flush_delay,
but in the absence of consensus I am leaving it alone for now.

Per testing by Andres Freund, this improves replication performance
and reduces replication latency and latency jitter. I was a bit
concerned about moving more work into XLogInsert, but testing seems
to show that it's not a problem in practice.
Along the way, improve comments for WaitLatchOrSocket.

If the record header is garbled, we're now quite likely to notice it before
we try to make a bogus memory allocation and run out of memory. That can
still happen, if the xlog record is split across pages (we cannot verify
the record header until reading the next page in that scenario), but this
reduces the chances. An out-of-memory is treated as a corrupt record
anyway, so this isn't a correctness issue, just a case of giving a better
error message.

The original coding failed miserably for BLCKSZ of 4K or less, as reported
by Josh Kupershmidt. With the present design for text indexes, a given
inner tuple could have up to 256 labels (requiring either 3K or 4K bytes
depending on MAXALIGN), which means that we can't positively guarantee no
failures for smaller blocksizes. But we can at least make it behave sanely
so long as there are few enough labels to fit on a page. Considering that
btree is also more prone to "index tuple too large" failures when BLCKSZ is
small, it's not clear that we should expend more work than this on this
case.

Avoid using LockPage(rel, 0, lockmode) to protect against changes to
the bucket mapping. Instead, an exclusive buffer content lock is now
viewed as sufficient permission to modify the metapage, and a shared
buffer content lock is used when such modifications need to be
prevented. This more relaxed locking regimen makes it possible that,
when we're busy getting a heavyweight bucket on the bucket we intend
to search or insert into, a bucket split might occur underneath us.
To compenate for that possibility, we use a loop-and-retry system:
release the metapage content lock, acquire the heavyweight lock on the
target bucket, and then reacquire the metapage content lock and check
that the bucket mapping has not changed. Normally it hasn't, and
we're done. But if by chance it has, we simply unlock the metapage,
release the heavyweight lock we acquired previously, lock the new
bucket, and loop around again. Even in the worst case we cannot loop
very many times here, since we don't split the same bucket again until
we've split all the other buckets, and 2^N gets big pretty fast.
This results in greatly improved concurrency, because we're
effectively replacing two lwlock acquire-and-release cycles in
exclusive mode (on one of the lock manager locks) with a single
acquire-and-release cycle in shared mode (on the metapage buffer
content lock). Testing shows that it's still not quite as good as
btree; for that, we'd probably have to find some way of getting rid
of the heavyweight bucket locks as well, which does not appear
straightforward.

The latter was already the dominant use, and it's preferable because
in C the convention is that intXX means XX bits. Therefore, allowing
mixed use of int2, int4, int8, int16, int32 is obviously confusing.
Remove the typedefs for int2 and int4 for now. They don't seem to be
widely used outside of the PostgreSQL source tree, and the few uses
can probably be cleaned up by the time this ships.

This simplifies code that needs to do arithmetic on XLogRecPtrs.
To avoid changing on-disk format of data pages, the LSN on data pages is
still stored in the old format. That should keep pg_upgrade happy. However,
we have XLogRecPtrs embedded in the control file, and in the structs that
are sent over the replication protocol, so this changes breaks compatibility
of pg_basebackup and server. I didn't do anything about this in this patch,
per discussion on -hackers, the right thing to do would to be to change the
replication protocol to be architecture-independent, so that you could use
a newer version of pg_receivexlog, for example, against an older server
version.

This saves a few bytes of WAL space, but the real motivation is to make it
predictable how much WAL space a record requires, as it no longer depends
on whether we need to waste the last few bytes at end of WAL page because
the header doesn't fit.
The total length field of WAL record, xl_tot_len, is moved to the beginning
of the WAL record header, so that it is still always found on the first page
where a WAL record begins.
Bump WAL version number again as this is an incompatible change.

The continuation record only contained one field, xl_rem_len, so it makes
things simpler to just include it in the WAL page header. This wastes four
bytes on pages that don't begin with a continuation from previos page, plus
four bytes on every page, because of padding.
The motivation of this is to make it easier to calculate how much space a
WAL record needs. Before this patch, it depended on how many page boundaries
the record crosses. The motivation of that, in turn, is to separate the
allocation of space in the WAL from the copying of the record data to the
allocated space. Keeping the calculation of space required simple helps to
keep the critical section of allocating the space from WAL short. But that's
not included in this patch yet.
Bump WAL version number again, as this is an incompatible change.

The comments claimed that wasting the last segment made it easier to do
calculations with XLogRecPtrs, because you don't have problems representing
last-byte-position-plus-1 that way. In my experience, however, it only made
things more complicated, because the there was two ways to represent the
boundary at the beginning of a logical log file: logid = n+1 and xrecoff = 0,
or as xlogid = n and xrecoff = 4GB - XLOG_SEG_SIZE. Some functions were
picky about which representation was used.
Also, use a 64-bit segment number instead of the log/seg combination, to
point to a certain WAL segment. We assume that all platforms have a working
64-bit integer type nowadays.
This is an incompatible change in WAL format, so bumping WAL version number.

Because permissions are assigned to element types, not array types,
complaining about permission denied on an array type would be
misleading to users. So adjust the reporting to refer to the element
type instead.
In order not to duplicate the required logic in two dozen places,
refactor the permission denied reporting for types a bit.

When I implemented the ginbuildempty() function as part of
implementing unlogged tables, I falsified the note in the header

This reverts commit 18fb9d8d21a28caddb72c7ffbdd7b96d52ff9724. Per
discussion, it does not seem like a good idea to allow committed changes to
go un-checkpointed indefinitely, as could happen in a low-traffic server;
that makes us entirely reliant on the WAL stream with no redundancy that
might aid data recovery in case of disk failure.
This re-introduces the original problem of hot-standby setups generating a
small continuing stream of WAL traffic even when idle, but there are other
ways to address that without compromising crash recovery, so we'll revisit
that issue in a future release cycle.

In lazy_scan_heap, we could issue bogus warnings about incorrect
information in the visibility map, because we checked the visibility
map bit before locking the heap page, creating a race condition. Fix
by rechecking the visibility map bit before we complain. Rejigger
some related logic so that we rely on the possibly-outdated
all_visible_according_to_vm value as little as possible.
In heap_multi_insert, it's not safe to clear the visibility map bit
before beginning the critical section. The visibility map is not
crash-safe unless we treat clearing the bit as a critical operation.
Specifically, if the transaction were to error out after we set the
bit and before entering the critical section, we could end up writing
the heap page to disk (with the bit cleared) and crashing before the
visibility map page made it to disk. That would be bad. heap_insert
has this correct, but somehow the order of operations got rearranged
when heap_multi_insert was added.
Also, add some more comments to visibilitymap_test, lazy_scan_heap,
and IndexOnlyNext, expounding on concurrency issues.
Per extensive code review by Andres Freund, and further review by Tom
Lane, who also made the original report about the bogus warnings.

When we allowed read-only transactions to skip assigning XIDs
we introduced the possibility that a fully deleted btree page
could be reused. This broke the index link sequence which could
then lead to indexscans silently returning fewer rows than would
have been correct. The actual incidence of silent errors from
this is thought to be very low because of the exact workload
required and locking pre-conditions. Fix is to remove pages only
if index page opaque->btpo.xact precedes RecentGlobalXmin.

We used to mimic the way a stack is constructed when descending the tree
during normal GiST inserts, but that was quite complicated during a buffered
build. It was also wrong: in GiST, the left-to-right relationships on
different levels might not match each other, so that when you know the
parent of a child page, you won't necessarily find the parent of the page to
the right of the child page by following the rightlinks at the parent level.
This sometimes led to "could not re-find parent" errors while building a
GiST index.
We now use a simple hash table to track the parent of every internal page.
Whenever a page is split, and downlinks are moved from one page to another,
we update the hash table accordingly. This is also better for performance
than the old method, as we never need to move right to re-find the parent
page, which could take a significant amount of time for buffers that were
created much earlier in the index build.
|
| |
|
|
|
|

There were two bugs here: We forgot to call gistFreeBuildBuffers() function
at the end of build, and we passed interXact == true to BufFileCreateTemp,
so the file wasn't automatically cleaned up at end-of-transaction either.

The only interesting-for-performance case wherein we force heapscan here
is when we're rebuilding the relcache init file, and the only such case
that is likely to be examining a catalog big enough to be syncscanned is
RelationBuildTupleDesc. But the early-exit optimization in that code gets
broken if we start the scan at a random place within the catalog, so that
allowing syncscan is actually a big deoptimization if pg_attribute is large
(at least for the normal case where the rows for core system catalogs have
never been changed since initdb). Hence, prevent syncscan here. Per my
testing pursuant to complaints from Jeff Frost and Greg Sabino Mullane,
though neither of them seem to have actually hit this specific problem.
Back-patch to 8.3, where syncscan was introduced.
