* Add CREATE TABLESPACE ... WITH ... OptionsStephen Frost2014-01-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Tablespaces have a few options which can be set on them to give PG hints as to how the tablespace behaves (perhaps it's faster for sequential scans, or better able to handle random access, etc). These options were only available through the ALTER TABLESPACE command. This adds the ability to set these options at CREATE TABLESPACE time, removing the need to do both a CREATE TABLESPACE and ALTER TABLESPACE to get the correct options set on the tablespace. Vik Fearing, reviewed by Michael Paquier.
* Add ALTER TABLESPACE ... MOVE commandStephen Frost2014-01-18
| | | | | | | | | This adds a 'MOVE' sub-command to ALTER TABLESPACE which allows moving sets of objects from one tablespace to another. This can be extremely handy and avoids a lot of error-prone scripting. ALTER TABLESPACE ... MOVE will only move objects the user owns, will notify the user if no objects were found, and can be used to move ALL objects or specific types of objects (TABLES, INDEXES, or MATERIALIZED VIEWS).

* Update comments concerning PGC_S_TEST.Tom Lane2013-09-03
| | | | | | | | This GUC context value was once only used by ALTER DATABASE SET and ALTER USER SET. That's not true anymore, though, so rewrite the comments to be a bit more general. Patch in HEAD only, since this is just an internal documentation issue.
* Use an MVCC snapshot, rather than SnapshotNow, for catalog scans.Robert Haas2013-07-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | SnapshotNow scans have the undesirable property that, in the face of concurrent updates, the scan can fail to see either the old or the new versions of the row. In many cases, we work around this by requiring DDL operations to hold AccessExclusiveLock on the object being modified; in some cases, the existing locking is inadequate and random failures occur as a result. This commit doesn't change anything related to locking, but will hopefully pave the way to allowing lock strength reductions in the future. The major issue has held us back from making this change in the past is that taking an MVCC snapshot is significantly more expensive than using a static special snapshot such as SnapshotNow. However, testing of various worst-case scenarios reveals that this problem is not severe except under fairly extreme workloads. To mitigate those problems, we avoid retaking the MVCC snapshot for each new scan; instead, we take a new snapshot only when invalidation messages have been processed. The catcache machinery already requires that invalidation messages be sent before releasing the related heavyweight lock; else other backends might rely on locally-cached data rather than scanning the catalog at all. Thus, making snapshot reuse dependent on the same guarantees shouldn't break anything that wasn't already subtly broken. Patch by me. Review by Michael Paquier and Andres Freund.
* Extend object-access hook machinery to support post-alter events.Robert Haas2013-03-17

* Move relpath() to libpgcommonAlvaro Herrera2013-02-21
| | | | | | | This enables non-backend code, such as pg_xlogdump, to use it easily. The previous location, in src/backend/catalog/catalog.c, made that essentially impossible because that file depends on many backend-only facilities; so this needs to live separately.

* Adjust more backend functions to return OID rather than void.Robert Haas2012-12-29
| | | | | | | | | This is again intended to support extensions to the event trigger functionality. This may go a bit further than we need for that purpose, but there's some value in being consistent, and the OID may be useful for other purposes also. Dimitri Fontaine

* Split tuple struct defs from htup.h to htup_details.hAlvaro Herrera2012-08-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | This reduces unnecessary exposure of other headers through htup.h, which is very widely included by many files. I have chosen to move the function prototypes to the new file as well, because that means htup.h no longer needs to include tupdesc.h. In itself this doesn't have much effect in indirect inclusion of tupdesc.h throughout the tree, because it's also required by execnodes.h; but it's something to explore in the future, and it seemed best to do the htup.h change now while I'm busy with it.

* Fix DROP TABLESPACE to unlink symlink when directory is not there.Tom Lane2012-05-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If the tablespace directory is missing entirely, we allow DROP TABLESPACE to go through, on the grounds that it should be possible to clean up the catalog entry in such a situation. However, we forgot that the pg_tblspc symlink might still be there. We should try to remove the symlink too (but not fail if it's no longer there), since not doing so can lead to weird behavior subsequently, as per report from Michael Nolan. There was some discussion of adding dependency links to prevent DROP TABLESPACE when the catalogs still contain references to the tablespace. That might be worth doing too, but it's an orthogonal question, and in any case wouldn't be back-patchable. Back-patch to 9.0, which is as far back as the logic looks like this. We could possibly do something similar in 8.x, but given the lack of reports I'm not sure it's worth the trouble, and anyway the case could not arise in the form the logic is meant to cover (namely, a post-DROP transaction rollback having resurrected the pg_tablespace entry after some or all of the filesystem infrastructure is gone).
* Extend object access hook framework to support arguments, and DROP.Robert Haas2012-03-09
| | | | | | | | | This allows loadable modules to get control at drop time, perhaps for the purpose of performing additional security checks or to log the event. The initial purpose of this code is to support sepgsql, but other applications should be possible as well. KaiGai Kohei, reviewed by me.
* Avoid throwing ERROR during WAL replay of DROP TABLESPACE.Tom Lane2012-02-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Although we will not even issue an XLOG_TBLSPC_DROP WAL record unless removal of the tablespace's directories succeeds, that does not guarantee that the same operation will succeed during WAL replay. Foreseeable reasons for it to fail include temp files created in the tablespace by Hot Standby backends, wrong directory permissions on a standby server, etc etc. The original coding threw ERROR if replay failed to remove the directories, but that is a serious overreaction. Throwing an error aborts recovery, and worse means that manual intervention will be needed to get the database to start again, since otherwise the same error will recur on subsequent attempts to replay the same WAL record. And the consequence of failing to remove the directories is only that some probably-small amount of disk space is wasted, so it hardly seems justified to throw an error. Accordingly, arrange to report such failures as LOG messages and keep going when a failure occurs during replay. Back-patch to 9.0 where Hot Standby was introduced. In principle such problems can occur in earlier releases, but Hot Standby increases the odds of trouble significantly. Given the lack of field reports of such issues, I'm satisfied with patching back as far as the patch applies easily.
* Accept a non-existent value in "ALTER USER/DATABASE SET ..." command.Heikki Linnakangas2012-01-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When default_text_search_config, default_tablespace, or temp_tablespaces setting is set per-user or per-database, with an "ALTER USER/DATABASE SET ..." statement, don't throw an error if the text search configuration or tablespace does not exist. In case of text search configuration, even if it doesn't exist in the current database, it might exist in another database, where the setting is intended to have its effect. This behavior is now the same as search_path's. Tablespaces are cluster-wide, so the same argument doesn't hold for tablespaces, but there's a problem with pg_dumpall: it dumps "ALTER USER SET ..." statements before the "CREATE TABLESPACE" statements. Arguably that's pg_dumpall's fault - it should dump the statements in such an order that the tablespace is created first and then the "ALTER USER SET default_tablespace ..." statements after that - but it seems better to be consistent with search_path and default_text_search_config anyway. Besides, you could still create a dump that throws an error, by creating the tablespace, running "ALTER USER SET default_tablespace", then dropping the tablespace and running pg_dumpall on that. Backpatch to all supported versions.

* Remove spclocation field from pg_tablespaceMagnus Hagander2011-12-07
| | | | | | | | Instead, add a function pg_tablespace_location(oid) used to return the same information, and do this by reading the symbolic link. Doing it this way makes it possible to relocate a tablespace when the database is down by simply changing the symbolic link.
* Clean up the #include mess a little.Tom Lane2011-09-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | walsender.h should depend on xlog.h, not vice versa. (Actually, the inclusion was circular until a couple hours ago, which was even sillier; but Bruce broke it in the expedient rather than logically correct direction.) Because of that poor decision, plus blind application of pgrminclude, we had a situation where half the system was depending on xlog.h to include such unrelated stuff as array.h and guc.h. Clean up the header inclusion, and manually revert a lot of what pgrminclude had done so things build again. This episode reinforces my feeling that pgrminclude should not be run without adult supervision. Inclusion changes in header files in particular need to be reviewed with great care. More generally, it'd be good if we had a clearer notion of module layering to dictate which headers can sanely include which others ... but that's a big task for another day.

* Support SECURITY LABEL on databases, tablespaces, and roles.Robert Haas2011-07-20
| | | | | | | | | | | This requires a new shared catalog, pg_shseclabel. Along the way, fix the security_label regression tests so that they don't monkey with the labels of any pre-existing objects. This is unlikely to matter in practice, since only the label for the "dummy" provider was being manipulated. But this way still seems cleaner. KaiGai Kohei, with fairly extensive hacking by me.

* Revise the API for GUC variable assign hooks.Tom Lane2011-04-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The previous functions of assign hooks are now split between check hooks and assign hooks, where the former can fail but the latter shouldn't. Aside from being conceptually clearer, this approach exposes the "canonicalized" form of the variable value to guc.c without having to do an actual assignment. And that lets us fix the problem recently noted by Bernd Helmle that the auto-tune patch for wal_buffers resulted in bogus log messages about "parameter "wal_buffers" cannot be changed without restarting the server". There may be some speed advantage too, because this design lets hook functions avoid re-parsing variable values when restoring a previous state after a rollback (they can store a pre-parsed representation of the value instead). This patch also resolves a longstanding annoyance about custom error messages from variable assign hooks: they should modify, not appear separately from, guc.c's own message about "invalid parameter value".

* Generalize concept of temporary relations to "relation persistence".Robert Haas2010-12-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This commit replaces pg_class.relistemp with pg_class.relpersistence; and also modifies the RangeVar node type to carry relpersistence rather than istemp. It also removes removes rd_istemp from RelationData and instead performs the correct computation based on relpersistence. For clarity, we add three new macros: RelationNeedsWAL(), RelationUsesLocalBuffers(), and RelationUsesTempNamespace(), so that we can clarify the purpose of each check that previous depended on rd_istemp. This is intended as infrastructure for the upcoming unlogged tables patch, as well as for future possible work on global temporary tables.
* Use symbolic names not octal constants for file permission flags.Tom Lane2010-12-10
| | | | | | | | Purely cosmetic patch to make our coding standards more consistent --- we were doing symbolic some places and octal other places. This patch fixes all C-coded uses of mkdir, chmod, and umask. There might be some other calls I missed. Inconsistency noted while researching tablespace directory permissions issue.
* Object access hook framework, with post-creation hook.Robert Haas2010-11-25
| | | | | | | | | | After a SQL object is created, we provide an opportunity for security or logging plugins to get control; for example, a security label provider could use this to assign an initial security label to newly created objects. The basic infrastructure is (hopefully) reusable for other types of events that might require similar treatment. KaiGai Kohei, with minor adjustments.

* Allow read only connections during recovery, known as Hot Standby.Simon Riggs2009-12-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | Enabled by recovery_connections = on (default) and forcing archive recovery using a recovery.conf. Recovery processing now emulates the original transactions as they are replayed, providing full locking and MVCC behaviour for read only queries. Recovery must enter consistent state before connections are allowed, so there is a delay, typically short, before connections succeed. Replay of recovering transactions can conflict and in some cases deadlock with queries during recovery; these result in query cancellation after max_standby_delay seconds have expired. Infrastructure changes have minor effects on normal running, though introduce four new types of WAL record. New test mode "make standbycheck" allows regression tests of static command behaviour on a standby server while in recovery. Typical and extreme dynamic behaviours have been checked via code inspection and manual testing. Few port specific behaviours have been utilised, though primary testing has been on Linux only so far. This commit is the basic patch. Additional changes will follow in this release to enhance some aspects of behaviour, notably improved handling of conflicts, deadlock detection and query cancellation. Changes to VACUUM FULL are also required. Simon Riggs, with significant and lengthy review by Heikki Linnakangas, including streamlined redesign of snapshot creation and two-phase commit. Important contributions from Florian Pflug, Mark Kirkwood, Merlin Moncure, Greg Stark, Gianni Ciolli, Gabriele Bartolini, Hannu Krosing, Robert Haas, Tatsuo Ishii, Hiroyuki Yamada plus support and feedback from many other community members.
* Revert the temporary patch to work around Snow Leopard readdir() bug.Tom Lane2009-11-10
| | | | | | | | Apple has fixed that bug in 10.6.2, and we should encourage users to update to that version rather than trusting this cosmetic patch. As was recently noted by Stephen Tyler, this patch was only masking the problem in the context of DROP TABLESPACE, but the failure could occur in other places such as pg_xlog cleanup.
