* Protect GIST logic that assumes penalty values can't be negative.Tom Lane2011-05-31
| | | | | | | | | | Apparently sane-looking penalty code might return small negative values, for example because of roundoff error. This will confuse places like gistchoose(). Prevent problems by clamping negative penalty values to zero. (Just to be really sure, I also made it force NaNs to zero.) Back-patch to all supported branches. Alexander Korotkov
* Make GIN and GIST pass the index collation to all their support functions.Tom Lane2011-04-22
| | | | | | | Experimentation with contrib/btree_gist shows that the majority of the GIST support functions potentially need collation information. Safest policy seems to be to pass it to all of them, instead of making assumptions about which ones could possibly need it.

* Rewrite the GiST insertion logic so that we don't need the post-recoveryHeikki Linnakangas2010-12-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | cleanup stage to finish incomplete inserts or splits anymore. There was two reasons for the cleanup step: 1. When a new tuple was inserted to a leaf page, the downlink in the parent needed to be updated to contain (ie. to be consistent with) the new key. Updating the parent in turn might require recursively updating the parent of the parent. We now handle that by updating the parent while traversing down the tree, so that when we insert the leaf tuple, all the parents are already consistent with the new key, and the tree is consistent at every step. 2. When a page is split, we need to insert the downlink for the new right page(s), and update the downlink for the original page to not include keys that moved to the right page(s). We now handle that by setting a new flag, F_FOLLOW_RIGHT, on the non-rightmost pages in the split. When that flag is set, scans always follow the rightlink, regardless of the NSN mechanism used to detect concurrent page splits. That way the tree is consistent right after split, even though the downlink is still missing. This is very similar to the way B-tree splits are handled. When the downlink is inserted in the parent, the flag is cleared. To keep the insertion algorithm simple, when an insertion sees an incomplete split, indicated by the F_FOLLOW_RIGHT flag, it finishes the split before doing anything else. These changes allow removing the whole "invalid tuple" mechanism, but I retained the scan code to still follow invalid tuples correctly. While we don't create any such tuples anymore, we want to handle them gracefully in case you pg_upgrade a GiST index that has them. If we encounter any on an insert, though, we just throw an error saying that you need to REINDEX. The issue that got me into doing this is that if you did a checkpoint while an insert or split was in progress, and the checkpoint finishes quickly so that there is no WAL record related to the insert between RedoRecPtr and the checkpoint record, recovery from that checkpoint would not know to finish the incomplete insert. IOW, we have the same issue we solved with the rm_safe_restartpoint mechanism during normal operation too. It's highly unlikely to happen in practice, and this fix is far too large to backpatch, so we're just going to live with in previous versions, but this refactoring fixes it going forward. With this patch, you don't get the annoying 'index "FOO" needs VACUUM or REINDEX to finish crash recovery' notices anymore if you crash at an unfortunate moment.
* The GiST scan algorithm uses LSNs to detect concurrent pages splits, butHeikki Linnakangas2010-11-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | temporary indexes are not WAL-logged. We used a constant LSN for temporary indexes, on the assumption that we don't need to worry about concurrent page splits in temporary indexes because they're only visible to the current session. But that assumption is wrong, it's possible to insert rows and split pages in the same session, while a scan is in progress. For example, by opening a cursor and fetching some rows, and INSERTing new rows before fetching some more. Fix by generating fake increasing LSNs, used in place of real LSNs in temporary GiST indexes.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | free space information is stored in a dedicated FSM relation fork, with each relation (except for hash indexes; they don't use FSM). This eliminates the max_fsm_relations and max_fsm_pages GUC options; remove any trace of them from the backend, initdb, and documentation. Rewrite contrib/pg_freespacemap to match the new FSM implementation. Also introduce a new variant of the get_raw_page(regclass, int4, int4) function in contrib/pageinspect that let's you to return pages from any relation fork, and a new fsm_page_contents() function to inspect the new FSM pages.

| | | | | | | | | | SizeOfPageHeaderData instead of sizeof(PageHeaderData) in places where that makes the code clearer, and avoid casting between Page and PageHeader where possible. Zdenek Kotala, with some additional cleanup by Heikki Linnakangas. I did not apply the parts of the proposed patch that would have resulted in slightly changing the on-disk format of hash indexes; it seems to me that's not a win as long as there's any chance of having in-place upgrade for 8.4.
* Improve our #include situation by moving pointer types away from theAlvaro Herrera2008-06-19
| | | | | | | corresponding struct definitions. This allows other headers to avoid including certain highly-loaded headers such as rel.h and relscan.h, instead using just relcache.h, heapam.h or genam.h, which are more lightweight and thus cause less unnecessary dependencies.

* Refactor XLogOpenRelation() and XLogReadBuffer() in preparation for relationHeikki Linnakangas2008-06-12
| | | | | | | | | | forks. XLogOpenRelation() and the associated light-weight relation cache in xlogutils.c is gone, and XLogReadBuffer() now takes a RelFileNode as argument, instead of Relation. For functions that still need a Relation struct during WAL replay, there's a new function called CreateFakeRelcacheEntry() that returns a fake entry like XLogOpenRelation() used to.
* Restructure some header files a bit, in particular heapam.h, by removing someAlvaro Herrera2008-05-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | unnecessary #include lines in it. Also, move some tuple routine prototypes and macros to htup.h, which allows removal of heapam.h inclusion from some .c files. For this to work, a new header file access/sysattr.h needed to be created, initially containing attribute numbers of system columns, for pg_dump usage. While at it, make contrib ltree, intarray and hstore header files more consistent with our header style.

* HOT updates. When we update a tuple without changing any of its indexedTom Lane2007-09-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | columns, and the new version can be stored on the same heap page, we no longer generate extra index entries for the new version. Instead, index searches follow the HOT-chain links to ensure they find the correct tuple version. In addition, this patch introduces the ability to "prune" dead tuples on a per-page basis, without having to do a complete VACUUM pass to recover space. VACUUM is still needed to clean up dead index entries, however. Pavan Deolasee, with help from a bunch of other people.
* Redefine the lp_flags field of item pointers as having four states, ratherTom Lane2007-09-12
| | | | | | | | | than two independent bits (one of which was never used in heap pages anyway, or at least hadn't been in a very long time). This gives us flexibility to add the HOT notions of redirected and dead item pointers without requiring anything so klugy as magic values of lp_off and lp_len. The state values are chosen so that for the states currently in use (pre-HOT) there is no change in the physical representation.
* Minor tweaking of index special-space definitions so that the variousTom Lane2007-04-09
| | | | | | | | | | index types can be reliably distinguished by examining the special space on an index page. Per my earlier proposal, plus the realization that there's no need for btree's vacuum cycle ID to cycle through every possible 16-bit value. Restricting its range a little costs nearly nothing and eliminates the possibility of collisions. Memo to self: remember to make bitmap indexes play along with this scheme, assuming that patch ever gets accepted.

Put the reloptions support code in a less random place (I chose to make a new file access/common/reloptions.c). Eliminate header inclusion creep. Make the index options functions safely user-callable (seems like client apps might like to be able to test validity of options before trying to make an index). Reduce overhead for normal case with no options by allowing rd_options to be NULL. Fix some unmaintainably klugy code, including getting rid of Natts_pg_class_fixed at long last. Some stylistic cleanup too, and pay attention to keeping comments in sync with code. Documentation still needs work, though I did fix the omissions in catalogs.sgml and indexam.sgml.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | - full concurrency for insert/update/select/vacuum: - select and vacuum never locks more than one page simultaneously - select (gettuple) hasn't any lock across it's calls - insert never locks more than two page simultaneously: - during search of leaf to insert it locks only one page simultaneously - while walk upward to the root it locked only parent (may be non-direct parent) and child. One of them X-lock, another may be S- or X-lock - 'vacuum full' locks index - improve gistgetmulti - simplify XLOG records Fix bug in index_beginscan_internal: LockRelation may clean rd_aminfo structure, so move GET_REL_PROCEDURE after LockRelation
