* Split xlog.c into xlog.c and xlogrecovery.c.Heikki Linnakangas2022-02-16
| | | | | | | | | | | This moves the functions related to performing WAL recovery into the new xlogrecovery.c source file, leaving xlog.c responsible for maintaining the WAL buffers, coordinating the startup and switch from recovery to normal operations, and other miscellaneous stuff that have always been in xlog.c.

* Move code around in StartupXLOG().Heikki Linnakangas2022-02-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is in preparation for the next commit, which will split off recovery-related code from xlog.c into a new source file. This is the order that things will happen with the next commit, and the point of this commit is to make these ordering changes more explicit, while the next commit mechanically moves the source code to the new file. To aid review, I added "BEGIN/END function" comments to mark which blocks of code are moved to which functions in the next commit. They will be gone in the next commit.

* WAL log unchanged toasted replica identity key attributes.Amit Kapila2022-02-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, during UPDATE, the unchanged replica identity key attributes are not logged separately because they are getting logged as part of the new tuple. But if they are stored externally then the untoasted values are not getting logged as part of the new tuple and logical replication won't be able to replicate such UPDATEs. So we need to log such attributes as part of the old_key_tuple during UPDATE.

* Make origin data initialization consistent other fields in 2PC headerMichael Paquier2022-02-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As of 1eb6d65, the origin data is optionally stored in a 2PC file header, with the data filled in EndPrepare() even in the default case where there is no origin data to add. This was inconsistent with all the other fields of TwoPhaseFileHeader which are initialized in StartPrepare(), so move the initialization of origin_lsn and origin_timestamp there instead. The effect of missing the initialization at this early stage is only cosmetic based on the current logic of the code, but could have led to issues in the long-term, and it is more consistent done this way.

* Silence minor compiler warnings.Tom Lane2022-02-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Depending on compiler version and optimization level, we might get a complaint that lazy_scan_heap's "freespace" is used uninitialized. Compilers not aware that ereport(ERROR) doesn't return complained about bbsink_lz4_new(). Assigning "-1" to a uint64 value has unportable results; fortunately, the value of xlogreadsegno is unimportant when xlogreadfd is -1. (It looks to me like there is no need for xlogreadsegno to be static in the first place, but I didn't venture to change that.)

* Add VACUUM instrumentation for scanned pages, relfrozenxid.Peter Geoghegan2022-02-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Report on scanned pages within VACUUM VERBOSE and autovacuum logging. These are pages that were physically examined during the VACUUM operation. Note that this can include a small number of pages that were marked all-visible in the visibility map by some earlier VACUUM operation. VACUUM won't skip all-visible pages that aren't part of a range of all-visible pages that's at least 32 blocks in length (partly to avoid missing out on opportunities to advance relfrozenxid during non-aggressive VACUUMs). Commit 44fa8488 simplified the definition of scanned pages. It became the complement of the pages (of those pages from rel_pages) that were skipped using the visibility map. And so scanned pages precisely indicates how effective the visibility map was at saving work. (Before now we displayed the number of pages skipped via the visibility map when happened to be frozen pages, but not when they were merely all-visible, which was less useful to users.) Rename the user-visible OldestXmin output field to "removal cutoff", and show some supplementary information: how far behind the cutoff is (number of XIDs behind) by the time the VACUUM operation finished. This will help users to figure out what's _not_ working in extreme cases where VACUUM is fundamentally unable to remove dead tuples or freeze older tuples (e.g., due to a leaked replication slot). Also report when relfrozenxid is advanced by VACUUM in output that immediately follows "removal cutoff". This structure is intended to highlight the relationship between the new relfrozenxid value for the table, and the VACUUM operation's removal cutoff. Finally, add instrumentation of "missed dead tuples", and the number of pages that had at least one such tuple. These are fully DEAD (not just RECENTLY_DEAD) tuples with storage that could not be pruned due to failure to acquire a cleanup lock on a heap page. This is a replacement for the "skipped due to pin" instrumentation removed by commit 44fa8488. It shows more details than before for pages where failing to get a cleanup lock actually resulted in VACUUM missing out on useful work, but usually shows nothing at all instead (the mere fact that we couldn't get a cleanup lock is usually of no consequence whatsoever now).

* Simplify lazy_scan_heap's handling of scanned pages.Peter Geoghegan2022-02-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Redefine a scanned page as any heap page that actually gets pinned by VACUUM's first pass over the heap, regardless of whether or not the page was cleanup locked. Although it's fundamentally impossible to prune a heap page without a cleanup lock (since we cannot safely defragment the page), we can do just about everything else. The only notable further exception is freezing tuples, though even that is arguably a consequence of not being able to prune (not a separate issue). VACUUM now does as much of the same processing as possible for pages that could not be cleanup locked. Any failure to do specific required processing is treated as a special case exception, which will be rare in practice. We now collect any preexisting LP_DEAD items (left behind by earlier opportunistic pruning) in the dead_items array for these heap pages, and count their tuples in the usual way. Steps used to decide if we'll attempt relation truncation are performed in the usual way for no-cleanup-lock scanned pages, too. Although eliminating these special cases is intrinsically useful, it's even more useful as an enabler of further simplifications. The only essential difference between aggressive and non-aggressive is that only aggressive is _guaranteed_ to be able to advance relfrozenxid up to FreezeLimit. Advancing relfrozenxid is always useful, but before now non-aggressive VACUUMs threw away the opportunity to do so whenever a cleanup lock could not be acquired on any page, no matter what the details were. This was very pessimistic. It isn't actually necessary to "behave aggressively" to maintain the ability to advance relfrozenxid when a cleanup lock isn't immediately available (most of the time). The non-aggressive case will now make sure that it isn't safe to advance relfrozenxid (without waiting) using only a share lock. It will usually notice that there are no tuples that need to be frozen anyway, just like in the aggressive case -- and so it no longer wastes an opportunity to advance relfrozenxid over nothing. (The non-aggressive case still won't wait for a cleanup lock when there really are tuples on the page that need to be frozen, since that really would amount to "behaving aggressively".) VACUUM currently has a tendency to set heap pages to all-visible in the visibility map before it freezes all of the tuples on the page. Only a subsequent aggressive VACUUM will visit these pages to freeze their tuples, usually only when the tuple XIDs are much older than the vacuum_freeze_min_age GUC (FreezeLimit cutoff) is supposed to allow. And so non-aggressive VACUUMs are still far less likely to be able to advance relfrozenxid in practice, even with the enhancements from this commit. This remaining issue will be addressed by future work that overhauls the criteria for freezing tuples. Once that's in place, almost every VACUUM operation will be able to advance relfrozenxid in practice.

* Reduce non-leaf keys overlap in GiST indexes produced by a sorted buildAlexander Korotkov2022-02-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The GiST sorted build currently chooses split points according to the only page space utilization. That may lead to higher non-leaf keys overlap and, in turn, slower search query answers. This commit makes the sorted build use the opclass's picksplit method. Once four pages at the level are accumulated, the picksplit method is applied until each split partition fits the page. Some of our split algorithms could show significant performance degradation while processing 4-times more data at once. But those opclasses haven't received the sorted build support and shouldn't receive it before their split algorithms are improved.

* Add UNIQUE null treatment optionPeter Eisentraut2022-02-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The SQL standard has been ambiguous about whether null values in unique constraints should be considered equal or not. Different implementations have different behaviors. In the SQL:202x draft, this has been formalized by making this implementation-defined and adding an option on unique constraint definitions UNIQUE [ NULLS [NOT] DISTINCT ] to choose a behavior explicitly. This patch adds this option to PostgreSQL. The default behavior remains UNIQUE NULLS DISTINCT. Making this happen in the btree code is pretty easy; most of the patch is just to carry the flag around to all the places that need it. The CREATE UNIQUE INDEX syntax extension is not from the standard, it's my own invention. I named all the internal flags, catalog columns, etc. in the negative ("nulls not distinct") so that the default PostgreSQL behavior is the default if the flag is false.

* Unify VACUUM VERBOSE and autovacuum logging.Peter Geoghegan2022-01-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The log_autovacuum_min_duration instrumentation used its own dedicated code for logging, which was not reused by VACUUM VERBOSE. This was highly duplicative, and sometimes led to each code path using slightly different accounting for essentially the same information. Clean things up by making VACUUM VERBOSE reuse the same instrumentation code. This code restructuring changes the structure of the VACUUM VERBOSE output itself, but that seems like an overall improvement. The most noticeable change in VACUUM VERBOSE output is that it no longer outputs a distinct message per index per round of index vacuuming. Most of the same information (about each index) is now shown in its new per-operation summary message. This is far more legible. A few details are no longer displayed by VACUUM VERBOSE, but that's no real loss in practice, especially in the common case where we don't need multiple index scans/rounds of vacuuming. This super fine-grained information is still available via DEBUG2 messages, which might still be useful in debugging scenarios. VACUUM VERBOSE now shows new instrumentation, which is typically very useful: all of the log_autovacuum_min_duration instrumentation that it missed out on before now. This includes information about WAL overhead, buffers hit/missed/dirtied information, and I/O timing information. VACUUM VERBOSE still retains a few INFO messages of its own. This is limited to output concerning the progress of heap rel truncation, as well as some basic information about parallel workers. These details are still potentially quite useful. They aren't a good fit for the log output, which must summarize the whole operation.

* Fix possible HOT corruption when RECENTLY_DEAD changes to DEAD while pruning.Andres Freund2022-01-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since dc7420c2c92 the horizon used for pruning is determined "lazily". A more accurate horizon is built on-demand, rather than in GetSnapshotData(). If a horizon computation is triggered between two HeapTupleSatisfiesVacuum() calls for the same tuple, the result can change from RECENTLY_DEAD to DEAD. heap_page_prune() can process the same tid multiple times (once following an update chain, once "directly"). When the result of HeapTupleSatisfiesVacuum() of a tuple changes from RECENTLY_DEAD during the first access, to DEAD in the second, the "tuple is DEAD and doesn't chain to anything else" path in heap_prune_chain() can end up marking the target of a LP_REDIRECT ItemId unused. Initially not easily visible, Once the target of a LP_REDIRECT ItemId is marked unused, a new tuple version can reuse it. At that point the corruption may become visible, as index entries pointing to the "original" redirect item, now point to a unrelated tuple. To fix, compute HTSV for all tuples on a page only once. This fixes the entire class of problems of HTSV changing inside heap_page_prune(). However, visibility changes can obviously still occur between HTSV checks inside heap_page_prune() and outside (e.g. in lazy_scan_prune()). The computation of HTSV is now done in bulk, in heap_page_prune(), rather than on-demand in heap_prune_chain(). Besides being a bit simpler, it also is faster: Memory accesses can happen sequentially, rather than in the order of HOT chains. There are other causes of HeapTupleSatisfiesVacuum() results changing between two visibility checks for the same tuple, even before dc7420c2c92. E.g. HEAPTUPLE_INSERT_IN_PROGRESS can change to HEAPTUPLE_DEAD when a transaction aborts between the two checks. None of the these other visibility status changes are known to cause corruption, but heap_page_prune()'s approach makes it hard to be confident. A patch implementing a more fundamental redesign of heap_page_prune(), which fixes this bug and simplifies pruning substantially, has been proposed by Peter Geoghegan in https://postgr.es/m/CAH2-WzmNk6V6tqzuuabxoxM8HJRaWU6h12toaS-bqYcLiht16A@mail.gmail.com However, that redesign is larger change than desirable for backpatching. As the new design still benefits from the batched visibility determination introduced in this commit, it makes sense to commit this narrower fix to 14 and master, and then commit Peter's improvement in master. The precise sequence required to trigger the bug is complicated and hard to do exercise in an isolation test (until we have wait points).

This bug is as old as time itself, and even older, if you think time begins with the oldest supported branch. Therefore, backpatch to all supported branches.

* Move parallel vacuum code to vacuumparallel.c.Amit Kapila2021-12-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This commit moves parallel vacuum related code to a new file commands/vacuumparallel.c so that any table AM supporting indexes can utilize parallel vacuum in order to call index AM callbacks (ambulkdelete and amvacuumcleanup) with parallel workers. Another reason for this refactoring is that the parallel vacuum isn't specific to heap so it doesn't make sense to keep this code in heap/vacuumlazy.c.

* Improve parallel vacuum implementation.Amit Kapila2021-12-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, in parallel vacuum, we allocated shmem area of IndexBulkDeleteResult only for indexes where parallel index vacuuming is safe and had null-bitmap in shmem area to access them. This logic was too complicated with a small benefit of saving only a few bits per indexes. In this commit, we allocate a dedicated shmem area for the array of LVParallelIndStats that includes a parallel-safety flag, the index vacuum status, and IndexBulkdeleteResult. There is one array element for every index, even those indexes where parallel index vacuuming is unsafe or not worthwhile. This commit makes the code clear by removing all bitmap-related code. Also, add the check each index vacuum status after parallel index vacuum to make sure that all indexes have been processed. Finally, rename parallel vacuum functions to parallel_vacuum_* for consistency.

* Remove assertion for replication origins in PREPARE TRANSACTIONMichael Paquier2021-12-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When using replication origins, pg_replication_origin_xact_setup() is an optional choice to be able to set a LSN and a timestamp to mark the origin, which would be additionally added to WAL for transaction commits or aborts (including 2PC transactions). An assertion in the code path of PREPARE TRANSACTION assumed that this data should always be set, so it would trigger when using replication origins without setting up an origin LSN. Some tests are added to cover more this kind of scenario. Oversight in commit 1eb6d65. Per discussion with Amit Kapila and Masahiko Sawada.

* Remove InitXLOGAccess().Robert Haas2021-12-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It's not great that RecoveryInProgress() calls InitXLOGAccess(), because a status inquiry function typically shouldn't have the side effect of performing initializations. We could fix that by calling InitXLOGAccess() from some other place, but instead, let's remove it altogether. One thing InitXLogAccess() did is initialize wal_segment_size, but it doesn't need to do that. In the postmaster, PostmasterMain() calls LocalProcessControlFile(), and all child processes will inherit that value -- except in EXEC_BACKEND bulds, but then each backend runs SubPostmasterMain() which also calls LocalProcessControlFile(). The other thing InitXLOGAccess() did is update RedoRecPtr and doPageWrites, but that's not critical, because all code that uses them will just retry if it turns out that they've changed. The only difference is that most code will now see an initial value that is definitely invalid instead of one that might have just been way out of date, but that will only happen once per backend lifetime, so it shouldn't be a big deal.

* Default to log_checkpoints=on, log_autovacuum_min_duration=10mRobert Haas2021-12-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The idea here is that when a performance problem is known to have occurred at a certain point in time, it's a good thing if there is some information available from the logs to help figure out what might have happened around that time. This change attracted an above-average amount of dissent, because it means that a server with default settings will produce some amount of log output even if nothing has gone wrong. However, by my count, the mailing list discussion had about twice as many people in favor of the change as opposed. The reasons for believing that the extra log output is not an issue in practice are: (1) the rate at which messages can be generated by this setting is bounded to one every few minutes on a properly-configured system and (2) production systems tend to have a lot more junk in the log from that due to failed connection attempts, ERROR messages generated by application activity, and the like.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This commit improves the description of some WAL records for the Transaction RMGR: - Track remote_apply for a transaction commit. This GUC is user-settable, so this information can be useful for debugging. - Add replication origin information for PREPARE TRANSACTION, with the origin ID, LSN and timestamp - Same as above, for ROLLBACK PREPARED.

* Standardize cleanup lock terminology.Peter Geoghegan2021-12-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The term "super-exclusive lock" is a synonym for "buffer cleanup lock" that first appeared in nbtree many years ago. Standardize things by consistently using the term cleanup lock. This finishes work started by commit 276db875. There is no good reason to have two terms. But there is a good reason to only have one: to avoid confusion around why VACUUM acquires a full cleanup lock (not just an ordinary exclusive lock) in index AMs, during ambulkdelete calls. This has nothing to do with protecting the physical index data structure itself. It is needed to implement a locking protocol that ensures that TIDs pointing to the heap/table structure cannot get marked for recycling by VACUUM before it is safe (which is somewhat similar to how VACUUM uses cleanup locks during its first heap pass). Note that it isn't strictly necessary for index AMs to implement this locking protocol -- several index AMs use an MVCC snapshot as their sole interlock to prevent unsafe TID recycling. In passing, update the nbtree README. Cleanly separate discussion of the aforementioned index vacuuming locking protocol from discussion of the "drop leaf page pin" optimization added by commit 2ed5b87f. We now structure discussion of the latter by describing how individual index scans may safely opt out of applying the standard locking protocol (and so can avoid blocking progress by VACUUM). Also document why the optimization is not safe to apply during nbtree index-only scans.

* Fix corruption of toast indexes with REINDEX CONCURRENTLYMichael Paquier2021-12-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | REINDEX CONCURRENTLY run on a toast index or a toast relation could corrupt the target indexes rebuilt, as a backend running in parallel that manipulates toast values would directly release the lock on the toast relation when its local operation is done, rather than releasing the lock once the transaction that manipulated the toast values committed. The fix done here is simple: we now hold a ROW EXCLUSIVE lock on the toast relation when saving or deleting a toast value until the transaction working on them is committed, so as a concurrent reindex happening in parallel would be able to wait for any activity and see any new rows inserted (or deleted). An isolation test is added to check after the case fixed here, which is a bit fancy by design as it relies on allow_system_table_mods to rename the toast table and its index to fixed names. This way, it is possible to reindex them directly without any dependency on the OID of the underlying relation. Note that this could not use a DO block either, as REINDEX CONCURRENTLY cannot be run in a transaction block. The test is backpatched down to 13, where it is possible, thanks to c4a7a39, to use allow_system_table_mods in a test suite.

* Ignore BRIN indexes when checking for HOT udpatesTomas Vondra2021-11-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When determining whether an index update may be skipped by using HOT, we can ignore attributes indexed only by BRIN indexes. There are no index pointers to individual tuples in BRIN, and the page range summary will be updated anyway as it relies on visibility info. This also removes rd_indexattr list, and replaces it with rd_attrsvalid flag. The list was not used anywhere, and a simple flag is sufficient.
