| | | | | | | | the freelist, plus per-buffer spinlocks that protect access to individual shared buffer headers. This requires abandoning a global freelist (since the freelist is a global contention point), which shoots down ARC and 2Q as well as plain LRU management. Adopt a clock sweep algorithm instead. Preliminary results show substantial improvement in multi-backend situations.

* Give the ResourceOwner mechanism full responsibility for releasing bufferTom Lane2004-10-16
| | | | | | | | pins at end of transaction, and reduce AtEOXact_Buffers to an Assert cross-check that this was done correctly. When not USE_ASSERT_CHECKING, AtEOXact_Buffers is a complete no-op. This gets rid of an O(NBuffers) bottleneck during transaction commit/abort, which recent testing has shown becomes significant above a few tens of thousands of shared buffers.

* Invent ResourceOwner mechanism as per my recent proposal, and use it toTom Lane2004-07-17
| | | | | | | | keep track of portal-related resources separately from transaction-related resources. This allows cursors to work in a somewhat sane fashion with nested transactions. For now, cursor behavior is non-subtransactional, that is a cursor's state does not roll back if you abort a subtransaction that fetched from the cursor. We might want to change that later.
* Tablespaces. Alternate database locations are dead, long live tablespaces.Tom Lane2004-06-18
| | | | | | | | | There are various things left to do: contrib dbsize and oid2name modules need work, and so does the documentation. Also someone should think about COMMENT ON TABLESPACE and maybe RENAME TABLESPACE. Also initlocation is dead, it just doesn't know it yet. Gavin Sherry and Tom Lane.

| | | | | | | | | of whether we have successfully read data into a buffer; this makes the error behavior a bit more transparent (IMHO anyway), and also makes it work correctly for local buffers which don't use Start/TerminateBufferIO. Collapse three separate functions for writing a shared buffer into one. This overlaps a bit with cleanups that Neil proposed awhile back, but seems not to have committed yet.

Internal restructuring in md.c to remove the not-very-useful array of MdfdVec objects --- might as well just use pointers. Also remove the long-dead 'persistent main memory' storage manager (mm.c), since it seems quite unlikely to ever get resurrected.

* Restructure local-buffer handling per recent pghackers discussion.Tom Lane2002-08-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The local buffer manager is no longer used for newly-created relations (unless they are TEMP); a new non-TEMP relation goes through the shared bufmgr and thus will participate normally in checkpoints. But TEMP relations use the local buffer manager throughout their lifespan. Also, operations in TEMP relations are not logged in WAL, thus improving performance. Since it's no longer necessary to fsync relations as they move out of the local buffers into shared buffers, quite a lot of smgr.c/md.c/fd.c code is no longer needed and has been removed: there's no concept of a dirty relation anymore in md.c/fd.c, and we never fsync anything but WAL. Still TODO: improve local buffer management algorithms so that it would be reasonable to increase NLocBuffer.

* Modify RelationGetBufferForTuple() so that we only do lseek and lockTom Lane2001-05-12
| | | | | | | | | | | when we need to move to a new page; as long as we can insert the new tuple on the same page as before, we only need LockBuffer and not the expensive stuff. Also, twiddle bufmgr interfaces to avoid redundant lseeks in RelationGetBufferForTuple and BufferAlloc. Successive inserts now require one lseek per page added, rather than one per tuple with several additional ones at each page boundary as happened before. Lock contention when multiple backends are inserting in same table is also greatly reduced.

* Make DROP TABLE rollback-able: postpone physical file delete until commit.Tom Lane2000-11-08
| | | | | | | | | (WAL logging for this is not done yet, however.) Clean up a number of really crufty things that are no longer needed now that DROP behaves nicely. Make temp table mapper do the right things when drop or rename affecting a temp table is rolled back. Also, remove "relation modified while in use" error check, in favor of locking tables at first reference and holding that lock throughout the statement.

* Several changes here, not very related but touching some of the same files.Tom Lane1999-09-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * Buffer refcount cleanup (per my "progress report" to pghackers, 9/22). * Add links to backend PROC structs to sinval's array of per-backend info, and use these links for routines that need to check the state of all backends (rather than the slow, complicated search of the ShmemIndex hashtable that was used before). Add databaseOID to PROC structs. * Use this to implement an interlock that prevents DESTROY DATABASE of a database containing running backends. (It's a little tricky to prevent a concurrently-starting backend from getting in there, since the new backend is not able to lock anything at the time it tries to look up its database in pg_database. My solution is to recheck that the DB is OK at the end of InitPostgres. It may not be a 100% solution, but it's a lot better than no interlock at all...) * In ALTER TABLE RENAME, flush buffers for the relation before doing the rename of the physical files, to ensure we don't get failures later from mdblindwrt(). * Update TRUNCATE patch so that it actually compiles against current sources :-(. You should do "make clean all" after pulling these changes.
* Mega-commit to make heap_open/heap_openr/heap_close take anTom Lane1999-09-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | additional argument specifying the kind of lock to acquire/release (or 'NoLock' to do no lock processing). Ensure that all relations are locked with some appropriate lock level before being examined --- this ensures that relevant shared-inval messages have been processed and should prevent problems caused by concurrent VACUUM. Fix several bugs having to do with mismatched increment/decrement of relation ref count and mismatched heap_open/close (which amounts to the same thing). A bogus ref count on a relation doesn't matter much *unless* a SI Inval message happens to arrive at the wrong time, which is probably why we got away with this sloppiness for so long. Repair missing grab of AccessExclusiveLock in DROP TABLE, ALTER/RENAME TABLE, etc, as noted by Hiroshi. Recommend 'make clean all' after pulling this update; I modified the Relation struct layout slightly. Will post further discussion to pghackers list shortly.

* Some *very* major changes by darrenk@insightdist.com (Darren King)Marc G. Fournier1998-01-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ========================================== What follows is a set of diffs that cleans up the usage of BLCKSZ. As a side effect, the person compiling the code can change the value of BLCKSZ _at_their_own_risk_. By that, I mean that I've tried it here at 4096 and 16384 with no ill-effects. A value of 4096 _shouldn't_ affect much as far as the kernel/file system goes, but making it bigger than 8192 can have severe consequences if you don't know what you're doing. 16394 worked for me, _BUT_ when I went to 32768 and did an initdb, the SCSI driver broke and the partition that I was running under went to hell in a hand basket. Had to reboot and do a good bit of fsck'ing to fix things up. The patch can be safely applied though. Just leave BLCKSZ = 8192 and everything is as before. It basically only cleans up all of the references to BLCKSZ in the code. If this patch is applied, a comment in the config.h file though above the BLCKSZ define with warning about monkeying around with it would be a good idea. Darren darrenk@insightdist.com (Also cleans up some of the #includes in files referencing BLCKSZ.) ==========================================
