* Use PG_GETARG_TRANSACTIONID where appropriatePeter Eisentraut2020-11-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | Some places were using PG_GETARG_UINT32 where PG_GETARG_TRANSACTIONID would be more appropriate. (Of course, they are the same internally, so there is no externally visible effect.) To do that, export PG_GETARG_TRANSACTIONID outside of xid.c. We also export PG_RETURN_TRANSACTIONID for symmetry, even though there are currently no external users.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This view shows the statistics about WAL activity. Currently it has only two columns: wal_buffers_full and stats_reset. wal_buffers_full column indicates the number of times WAL data was written to the disk because WAL buffers got full. This information is useful when tuning wal_buffers. stats_reset column indicates the time at which these statistics were last reset. pg_stat_wal view is also the basic infrastructure to expose other various statistics about WAL activity later.

* Defer flushing of SLRU files.Thomas Munro2020-09-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, we called fsync() after writing out individual pg_xact, pg_multixact and pg_commit_ts pages due to cache pressure, leading to regular I/O stalls in user backends and recovery. Collapse requests for the same file into a single system call as part of the next checkpoint, as we already did for relation files, using the infrastructure developed by commit 3eb77eba. This can cause a significant improvement to recovery performance, especially when it's otherwise CPU-bound. Hoist ProcessSyncRequests() up into CheckPointGuts() to make it clearer that it applies to all the SLRU mini-buffer-pools as well as the main buffer pool. Rearrange things so that data collected in CheckpointStats includes SLRU activity. Also remove the Shutdown{CLOG,CommitTS,SUBTRANS,MultiXact}() functions, because they were redundant after the shutdown checkpoint that immediately precedes them. (I'm not sure if they were ever needed, but they aren't now.)

* Add support for building GiST index by sorting.Heikki Linnakangas2020-09-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds a new optional support function to the GiST access method: sortsupport. If it is defined, the GiST index is built by sorting all data to the order defined by the sortsupport's comparator function, and packing the tuples in that order to GiST pages. This is similar to how B-tree index build works, and is much faster than inserting the tuples one by one. The resulting index is smaller too, because the pages are packed more tightly, upto 'fillfactor'. The normal build method works by splitting pages, which tends to lead to more wasted space. The quality of the resulting index depends on how good the opclass-defined sort order is. A good order preserves locality of the input data. As the first user of this facility, add 'sortsupport' function to the point_ops opclass. It sorts the points in Z-order (aka Morton Code), by interleaving the bits of the X and Y coordinates.

* Mark commit and abort WAL records with XLR_SPECIAL_REL_UPDATE.Heikki Linnakangas2020-08-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If a commit or abort record includes "dropped relfilenodes", then replaying the record will remove data files. That is surely a "special rel update", but the records were not marked as such. Fix that, teach pg_rewind to expect and ignore them, and add a test case to cover it. It's always been like this, but no backporting for fear of breaking existing applications. If an application parsed the WAL but was not handling commit/abort records, it would stop working. That might be a good thing if it really needed to handle the dropped rels, but it will be caught when the application is updated to work with PostgreSQL v14 anyway.

* Prevent concurrent SimpleLruTruncate() for any given SLRU.Noah Misch2020-08-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The SimpleLruTruncate() header comment states the new coding rule. To achieve this, add locktype "frozenid" and two LWLocks. This closes a rare opportunity for data loss, which manifested as "apparent wraparound" or "could not access status of transaction" errors. Data loss is more likely in pg_multixact, due to released branches' thin margin between multiStopLimit and multiWrapLimit. If a user's physical replication primary logged ": apparent wraparound" messages, the user should rebuild standbys of that primary regardless of symptoms. At less risk is a cluster having emitted "not accepting commands" errors or "must be vacuumed" warnings at some point. One can test a cluster for this data loss by running VACUUM FREEZE in every database. Back-patch to 9.5 (all supported versions).

* snapshot scalability: Move subxact info to ProcGlobal, remove PGXACT.Andres Freund2020-08-14

* snapshot scalability: Introduce dense array of in-progress xids.Andres Freund2020-08-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The new array contains the xids for all connected backends / in-use PGPROC entries in a dense manner (in contrast to the PGPROC/PGXACT arrays which can have unused entries interspersed). This improves performance because GetSnapshotData() always needs to scan the xids of all live procarray entries and now there's no need to go through the procArray->pgprocnos indirection anymore. As the set of running top-level xids changes rarely, compared to the number of snapshots taken, this substantially increases the likelihood of most data required for a snapshot being in l2 cache. In read-mostly workloads scanning the xids[] array will sufficient to build a snapshot, as most backends will not have an xid assigned. To keep the xid array dense ProcArrayRemove() needs to move entries behind the to-be-removed proc's one further up in the array. Obviously moving array entries cannot happen while a backend sets it xid. I.e. locking needs to prevent that array entries are moved while a backend modifies its xid. To avoid locking ProcArrayLock in GetNewTransactionId() - a fairly hot spot already - ProcArrayAdd() / ProcArrayRemove() now needs to hold XidGenLock in addition to ProcArrayLock. Adding / Removing a procarray entry is not a very frequent operation, even taking 2PC into account. Due to the above, the dense array entries can only be read or modified while holding ProcArrayLock and/or XidGenLock. This prevents a concurrent ProcArrayRemove() from shifting the dense array while it is accessed concurrently. While the new dense array is very good when needing to look at all xids it is less suitable when accessing a single backend's xid. In particular it would be problematic to have to acquire a lock to access a backend's own xid. Therefore a backend's xid is not just stored in the dense array, but also in PGPROC. This also allows a backend to only access the shared xid value when the backend had acquired an xid. The infrastructure added in this commit will be used for the remaining PGXACT fields in subsequent commits. They are kept separate to make review easier.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now that xmin isn't needed for GetSnapshotData() anymore, it leads to unnecessary cacheline ping-pong to have it in PGXACT, as it is updated considerably more frequently than the other PGXACT members. After the changes in dc7420c2c92, this is a very straight-forward change. For highly concurrent, snapshot acquisition heavy, workloads this change alone can significantly increase scalability. E.g. plain pgbench on a smaller 2 socket machine gains 1.07x for read-only pgbench, 1.22x for read-only pgbench when submitting queries in batches of 100, and 2.85x for batches of 100 'SELECT';. The latter numbers are obviously not to be expected in the real-world, but micro-benchmark the snapshot computation scalability (previously spending ~80% of the time in GetSnapshotData()).

* snapshot scalability: Don't compute global horizons while building snapshots.Andres Freund2020-08-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | To make GetSnapshotData() more scalable, it cannot not look at at each proc's xmin: While snapshot contents do not need to change whenever a read-only transaction commits or a snapshot is released, a proc's xmin is modified in those cases. The frequency of xmin modifications leads to, particularly on higher core count systems, many cache misses inside GetSnapshotData(), despite the data underlying a snapshot not changing. That is the most significant source of GetSnapshotData() scaling poorly on larger systems. Without accessing xmins, GetSnapshotData() cannot calculate accurate horizons / thresholds as it has so far. But we don't really have to: The horizons don't actually change that much between GetSnapshotData() calls. Nor are the horizons actually used every time a snapshot is built. The trick this commit introduces is to delay computation of accurate horizons until there use and using horizon boundaries to determine whether accurate horizons need to be computed. The use of RecentGlobal[Data]Xmin to decide whether a row version could be removed has been replaces with new GlobalVisTest* functions. These use two thresholds to determine whether a row can be pruned: 1) definitely_needed, indicating that rows deleted by XIDs >= definitely_needed are definitely still visible. 2) maybe_needed, indicating that rows deleted by XIDs < maybe_needed can definitely be removed GetSnapshotData() updates definitely_needed to be the xmin of the computed snapshot. When testing whether a row can be removed (with GlobalVisTestIsRemovableXid()) and the tested XID falls in between the two (i.e. XID >= maybe_needed && XID < definitely_needed) the boundaries can be recomputed to be more accurate. As it is not cheap to compute accurate boundaries, we limit the number of times that happens in short succession. As the boundaries used by GlobalVisTestIsRemovableXid() are never reset (with maybe_needed updated by GetSnapshotData()), it is likely that further test can benefit from an earlier computation of accurate horizons. To avoid regressing performance when old_snapshot_threshold is set (as that requires an accurate horizon to be computed), heap_page_prune_opt() doesn't unconditionally call TransactionIdLimitedForOldSnapshots() anymore. Both the computation of the limited horizon, and the triggering of errors (with SetOldSnapshotThresholdTimestamp()) is now only done when necessary to remove tuples. This commit just removes the accesses to PGXACT->xmin from GetSnapshotData(), but other members of PGXACT residing in the same cache line are accessed. Therefore this in itself does not result in a significant improvement. Subsequent commits will take advantage of the fact that GetSnapshotData() now does not need to access xmins anymore. Note: This contains a workaround in heap_page_prune_opt() to keep the snapshot_too_old tests working. While that workaround is ugly, the tests currently are not meaningful, and it seems best to address them separately.

* Implement streaming mode in ReorderBuffer.Amit Kapila2020-08-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Instead of serializing the transaction to disk after reaching the logical_decoding_work_mem limit in memory, we consume the changes we have in memory and invoke stream API methods added by commit 45fdc9738b. However, sometimes if we have incomplete toast or speculative insert we spill to the disk because we can't generate the complete tuple and stream. And, as soon as we get the complete tuple we stream the transaction including the serialized changes. We can do this incremental processing thanks to having assignments (associating subxact with toplevel xacts) in WAL right away, and thanks to logging the invalidation messages at each command end. These features are added by commits 0bead9af48 and c55040ccd0 respectively. Now that we can stream in-progress transactions, the concurrent aborts may cause failures when the output plugin consults catalogs (both system and user-defined). We handle such failures by returning ERRCODE_TRANSACTION_ROLLBACK sqlerrcode from system table scan APIs to the backend or WALSender decoding a specific uncommitted transaction. The decoding logic on the receipt of such a sqlerrcode aborts the decoding of the current transaction and continue with the decoding of other transactions. We have ReorderBufferTXN pointer in each ReorderBufferChange by which we know which xact it belongs to. The output plugin can use this to decide which changes to discard in case of stream_abort_cb (e.g. when a subxact gets discarded). We also provide a new option via SQL APIs to fetch the changes being streamed.

This patch is required to allow the streaming of in-progress transactions in logical decoding.  The actual work to allow streaming will be committed as a separate patch. We still add the invalidations to the cache and write them to WAL at commit time in RecordTransactionCommit(). This uses the existing XLOG_INVALIDATIONS xlog record type, from the RM_STANDBY_ID resource manager (see LogStandbyInvalidations for details). So existing code relying on those invalidations (e.g. redo) does not need to be changed. The invalidations written at command end uses a new xlog record type XLOG_XACT_INVALIDATIONS, from RM_XACT_ID resource manager. See LogLogicalInvalidations for details. These new xlog records are ignored by existing redo procedures, which still rely on the invalidations written to commit records. The invalidations are decoded and accumulated in top-transaction, and then executed during replay.  This obviates the need to decode the invalidations as part of a commit record.

So we also write the assignment info into WAL immediately, as part of the next WAL record (to minimize overhead) only when wal_level=logical. We can not remove the existing XLOG_XACT_ASSIGNMENT WAL as that is required for avoiding overflow in the hot standby snapshot. Bump XLOG_PAGE_MAGIC, since this introduces XLR_BLOCK_ID_TOPLEVEL_XID.

* Include replication origins in SQL functions for commit timestampMichael Paquier2020-07-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This includes two changes: - Addition of a new function pg_xact_commit_timestamp_origin() able, for a given transaction ID, to return the commit timestamp and replication origin of this transaction. An equivalent function existed in pglogical. - Addition of the replication origin to pg_last_committed_xact(). The commit timestamp manager includes already APIs able to return the replication origin of a transaction on top of its commit timestamp, but the code paths for replication origins were never stressed as those functions have never looked for a replication origin, and the SQL functions available have never included this information since their introduction in 73c986a. While on it, refactor a test of modules/commit_ts/ to use tstzrange() to check that a transaction timestamp is within the wanted range, making the test a bit easier to read. Bump catalog version.

* Adjust max_slot_wal_keep_size behavior per reviewAlvaro Herrera2020-06-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In pg_replication_slot, change output from normal/reserved/lost to reserved/extended/unreserved/ lost, which better expresses the possible states particularly near the time where segments are no longer safe but checkpoint has not run yet. Under the new definition, reserved means the slot is consuming WAL that's still under the normal WAL size constraints; extended means it's consuming WAL that's being protected by wal_keep_segments or the slot itself, whose size is below max_slot_wal_keep_size; unreserved means the WAL is no longer safe, but checkpoint has not yet removed those files. Such as slot is in imminent danger, but can still continue for a little while and may catch up to the reserved WAL space. Also, there were some bugs in the calculations used to report the status; fixed those. Backpatch to 13.

* Fix crash in WAL sender when starting physical replicationMichael Paquier2020-06-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since database connections can be used with WAL senders in 9.4, it is possible to use physical replication. This commit fixes a crash when starting physical replication with a WAL sender using a database connection, caused by the refactoring done in 850196b. There have been discussions about forbidding the use of physical replication in a database connection, but this is left for later, taking care only of the crash new to 13. While on it, add a test to check for a failure when attempting logical replication if the WAL sender does not have a database connection.

* Rename SLRU structures and associated LWLocks.Tom Lane2020-05-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Originally, the names assigned to SLRUs had no purpose other than being shmem lookup keys, so not a lot of thought went into them. As of v13, though, we're exposing them in the pg_stat_slru view and the pg_stat_reset_slru function, so it seems advisable to take a bit more care. Rename them to names based on the associated on-disk storage directories (which fortunately we *did* think about, to some extent; since those are also visible to DBAs, consistency seems like a good thing). Also rename the associated LWLocks, since those names are likewise user-exposed now as wait event names. For the most part I only touched symbols used in the respective modules' SimpleLruInit() calls, not the names of other related objects. This renaming could have been taken further, and maybe someday we will do so. But for now it seems undesirable to change the names of any globally visible functions or structs, so some inconsistency is unavoidable. (But I *did* terminate "oldserxid" with prejudice, as I found that name both unreadable and not descriptive of the SLRU's contents.) Table 27.12 needs re-alphabetization now, but I'll leave that till after the other LWLock renamings I have in mind. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/28683.1589405363@sss.pgh.pa.us
