* Remove obsolete XLogRecPtr macrosAlvaro Herrera2012-12-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This gets rid of XLByteLT, XLByteLE, XLByteEQ and XLByteAdvance. These were useful for brevity when XLogRecPtrs were split in xlogid/xrecoff; but now that they are simple uint64's, they are just clutter. The only downside to making this change would be ease of backporting patches, but that has been negated by other substantive changes to the involved code anyway. The clarity of simpler expressions makes the change worthwhile. Most of the changes are mechanical, but in a couple of places, the patch author chose to invert the operator sense, making the code flow more logical (and more in line with preceding comments).

* Make the number of CLOG buffers adaptive, based on shared_buffers.Robert Haas2012-01-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, this was hardcoded: we always had 8. Performance testing shows that isn't enough, especially on big SMP systems, so we allow it to scale up as high as 32 when there's adequate memory. On the flip side, when shared_buffers is very small, drop the number of CLOG buffers down to as little as 4, so that we can start the postmaster even when very little shared memory is available. Per extensive discussion with Simon Riggs, Tom Lane, and others on pgsql-hackers.

* Use callbacks in SlruScanDirectory for the actual actionAlvaro Herrera2011-10-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, the code assumed that the only possible action to take was to delete files behind a certain cutoff point. The async notify code was already a crock: it used a different "pagePrecedes" function for truncation than for regular operation. By allowing it to pass a callback to SlruScanDirectory it can do cleanly exactly what it needs to do. The clog.c code also had its own use for SlruScanDirectory, which is made a bit simpler with this.

* 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.

At the moment, this just moves things around with no functional change, but makes the hot standby patch that's under review cleaner.

* Rework subtransaction commit protocol for hot standby.Alvaro Herrera2008-10-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | This patch eliminates the marking of subtransactions as SUBCOMMITTED in pg_clog during their commit; instead they remain in-progress until main transaction commit. At main transaction commit, the commit protocol is atomic-by-page instead of one transaction at a time. To avoid a race condition with some subtransactions appearing committed before others in the case where they span more than one pg_clog page, we conserve the logic that marks them subcommitted before marking the parent committed. Simon Riggs with minor help from me

* Implement lazy XID allocation: transactions that do not modify any databaseTom Lane2007-09-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | rows will normally never obtain an XID at all. We already did things this way for subtransactions, but this patch extends the concept to top-level transactions. In applications where there are lots of short read-only transactions, this should improve performance noticeably; not so much from removal of the actual XID-assignments, as from reduction of overhead that's driven by the rate of XID consumption. We add a concept of a "virtual transaction ID" so that active transactions can be uniquely identified even if they don't have a regular XID. This is a much lighter-weight concept: uniqueness of VXIDs is only guaranteed over the short term, and no on-disk record is made about them. Florian Pflug, with some editorialization by Tom.
* Support an optional asynchronous commit mode, in which we don't flush WALTom Lane2007-08-01
| | | | | | before reporting a transaction committed. Data consistency is still guaranteed (unlike setting fsync = off), but a crash may lose the effects of the last few transactions. Patch by Simon, some editorialization by Tom.

* Fix recently-understood problems with handling of XID freezing, particularlyTom Lane2006-11-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | in PITR scenarios. We now WAL-log the replacement of old XIDs with FrozenTransactionId, so that such replacement is guaranteed to propagate to PITR slave databases. Also, rather than relying on hint-bit updates to be preserved, pg_clog is not truncated until all instances of an XID are known to have been replaced by FrozenTransactionId. Add new GUC variables and pg_autovacuum columns to allow management of the freezing policy, so that users can trade off the size of pg_clog against the amount of freezing work done. Revise the already-existing code that forces autovacuum of tables approaching the wraparound point to make it more bulletproof; also, revise the autovacuum logic so that anti-wraparound vacuuming is done per-table rather than per-database. initdb forced because of changes in pg_class, pg_database, and pg_autovacuum catalogs. Heikki Linnakangas, Simon Riggs, and Tom Lane.

* Arrange to emit a description of the current XLOG record as error contextTom Lane2006-03-24
| | | | | | | | | when an error occurs during xlog replay. Also, replace the former risky 'write into a fixed-size buffer with no overflow detection' API for XLOG record description routines; use an expansible StringInfo instead. (The latter accounts for most of the patch bulk.) Qingqing Zhou

* Get rid of slru.c's hardwired insistence on a fixed number of slots perTom Lane2005-12-06
| | | | | | | | | SLRU area. The number of slots is still a compile-time constant (someday we might want to change that), but at least it's a different constant for each SLRU area. Increase number of subtrans buffers to 32 based on experimentation with a heavily subtrans-bashing test case, and increase number of multixact member buffers to 16, since it's obviously silly for it not to be at least twice the number of multixact offset buffers.
* Arrange for read-only accesses to SLRU page buffers to take only a sharedTom Lane2005-12-06
| | | | | | | | | | lock, not exclusive, if the desired page is already in memory. This can be demonstrated to be a significant win on the pg_subtrans cache when there is a large window of open transactions. It should be useful for pg_clog as well. I didn't try to make GetMultiXactIdMembers() use the code, as that would have taken some restructuring, and what with the local cache for multixact contents it probably wouldn't really make a difference. Per my recent proposal.
* Clean up representation of SLRU page state. This is the cleaner fixTom Lane2005-11-05

* Convert the arithmetic for shared memory size calculation from 'int'Tom Lane2005-08-20
| | | | | | | | | | | to 'Size' (that is, size_t), and install overflow detection checks in it. This allows us to remove the former arbitrary restrictions on NBuffers etc. It won't make any difference in a 32-bit machine, but in a 64-bit machine you could theoretically have terabytes of shared buffers. (How efficiently we could manage 'em remains to be seen.) Similarly, num_temp_buffers, work_mem, and maintenance_work_mem can be set above 2Gb on a 64-bit machine. Original patch from Koichi Suzuki, additional work by moi.
* Improve the checkpoint signaling mechanism so that the bgwriter can tellTom Lane2005-06-30
| | | | | | | | the difference between checkpoints forced due to WAL segment consumption and checkpoints forced for other reasons (such as CREATE DATABASE). Avoid generating 'checkpoints are occurring too frequently' messages when the checkpoint wasn't caused by WAL segment consumption. Per gripe from Chris K-L.
* Modify XLogInsert API to make callers specify whether pages to be backedTom Lane2005-06-06
| | | | | | | | up have the standard layout with unused space between pd_lower and pd_upper. When this is set, XLogInsert will omit the unused space without bothering to scan it to see if it's zero. That saves time in XLogInsert, and also allows reversion of my earlier patch to make PageRepairFragmentation et al explicitly re-zero freed space. Per suggestion by Heikki Linnakangas.
* Remove the mostly-stubbed-out-anyway support routines for WAL UNDO.Tom Lane2005-06-06
| | | | | | That code is never going to be used in the foreseeable future, and where it's more than a stub it's making the redo routines harder to read.

* Awhile back I added some code to StartupCLOG() to forcibly zero outTom Lane2004-12-22
| | | | | | | | | | the remainder of the current clog page during system startup. While this was a good idea, it turns out the code fails if nextXid is exactly at a page boundary, because we won't have created the "current" clog page yet in that case. Since the page will be correctly zeroed when we execute the first transaction on it, the solution is just to do nothing when exactly at a page boundary. Per trouble report from Dave Hartwig.

| | | | | | | updates are no longer WAL-logged nor even fsync'd; we do not need to, since after a crash no old pg_subtrans data is needed again. We truncate pg_subtrans to RecentGlobalXmin at each checkpoint. slru.c's API is refactored a little bit to separate out the necessary decisions.

* Per previous discussions, get rid of use of sync(2) in favor ofTom Lane2004-05-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | explicitly fsync'ing every (non-temp) file we have written since the last checkpoint. In the vast majority of cases, the burden of the fsyncs should fall on the bgwriter process not on backends. (To this end, we assume that an fsync issued by the bgwriter will force out blocks written to the same file by other processes using other file descriptors. Anyone have a problem with that?) This makes the world safe for WIN32, which ain't even got sync(2), and really makes the world safe for Unixen as well, because sync(2) never had the semantics we need: it offers no way to wait for the requested I/O to finish. Along the way, fix a bug I recently introduced in xlog recovery: file truncation replay failed to clear bufmgr buffers for the dropped blocks, which could result in 'PANIC: heap_delete_redo: no block' later on in xlog replay.
