snapmgmt.c file for the former. The header files have also been reorganized
in three parts: the most basic snapshot definitions are now in a new file
snapshot.h, and the also new snapmgmt.h keeps the definitions for snapmgmt.c.
tqual.h has been reduced to the bare minimum.
This patch is just a first step towards managing live snapshots within a
transaction; there is no functionality change.
Per my proposal to pgsql-patches on 20080318191940.GB27458@alvh.no-ip.org and
subsequent discussion.

strings. This patch introduces four support functions cstring_to_text,
cstring_to_text_with_len, text_to_cstring, and text_to_cstring_buffer, and
two macros CStringGetTextDatum and TextDatumGetCString. A number of
existing macros that provided variants on these themes were removed.
Most of the places that need to make such conversions now require just one
function or macro call, in place of the multiple notational layers that used
to be needed. There are no longer any direct calls of textout or textin,
and we got most of the places that were using handmade conversions via
memcpy (there may be a few still lurking, though).
This commit doesn't make any serious effort to eliminate transient memory
leaks caused by detoasting toasted text objects before they reach
text_to_cstring. We changed PG_GETARG_TEXT_P to PG_GETARG_TEXT_PP in a few
places where it was easy, but much more could be done.

support DTrace in the future.
Switch from using DTRACE_PROBEn macros to the dynamically generated macros.
Use "dtrace -h" to create a header file that contains the dynamically
generated macros to be used in the source code instead of the DTRACE_PROBEn
macros. A dummy header file is generated for builds without DTrace support.

linear search when checking child-transaction XIDs. This makes for an
important speedup in transactions that have large numbers of children,
as in a recent example from Craig Ringer. We can also get rid of an
ugly kluge that represented lists of TransactionIds as lists of OIDs.

bucket number, so as to ensure locality of access to the index during the
insertion step. Without this, building an index significantly larger than
available RAM takes a very long time because of thrashing. On the other
hand, sorting is just useless overhead when the index does fit in RAM.
We choose to sort when the initial index size exceeds effective_cache_size.
This is a revised version of work by Tom Raney and Shreya Bhargava.

two buckets at the start, we create a number of buckets appropriate for the
estimated size of the table. This avoids a lot of expensive bucket-split
actions during initial index build on an already-populated table.
This is one of the two core ideas of Tom Raney and Shreya Bhargava's patch
to reduce hash index build time. I'm committing it separately to make it
easier for people to test the effects of this separately from the effects
of their other core idea (pre-sorting the index entries by bucket number).

messages if the calling transaction aborts later on. Collapsing out line
pointer redirects is a done deal as soon as we complete the page update,
so syscache *must* be notified even if the VACUUM FULL as a whole doesn't
complete. To fix, add some functionality to inval.c to allow the pending
inval messages to be sent immediately while heap_page_prune is still
running. The implementation is a bit chintzy: it will only work in the
context of VACUUM FULL. But that's all we need now, and it can always be
extended later if needed. Per my trouble report of a week ago.

before it goes groveling through the ProcArray. In situations where the same
recently-committed transaction ID is checked repeatedly by tqual.c, this saves
a lot of shared-memory searches. And it's cheap enough that it shouldn't
hurt noticeably when it doesn't help.

it accumulates the set of changes to be made and then applies them. It had
to accumulate the set of changes anyway to prepare a WAL record for the
pruning action, so this isn't an enormous change; the only new complexity is
to not doubly mark tuples that are visited twice in the scan. The main
advantage is that we can substantially reduce the scope of the critical
section in which the changes are applied, thus avoiding PANIC in foreseeable
cases like running out of memory in inval.c. A nice secondary advantage is
that it is now far clearer that WAL replay will actually do the same thing
that the original pruning did.
This commit doesn't do anything about the open problem that
CacheInvalidateHeapTuple doesn't have the right semantics for a CTID change
caused by collapsing out a redirect pointer. But whatever we do about that,
it'll be a good idea to not do it inside a critical section.

were discussed last year, but we felt it was too late in the 8.3 cycle to
change the code immediately. Specifically, the patch:
* Reduces the minimum datum size to be considered for compression from
256 to 32 bytes, as suggested by Greg Stark.
* Increases the required compression rate for compressed storage from
20% to 25%, again per Greg's suggestion.
* Replaces force_input_size (size above which compression is forced)
with a maximum size to be considered for compression. It was agreed
that allowing large inputs to escape the minimum-compression-rate
requirement was not bright, and that indeed we'd rather have a knob
that acted in the other direction. I set this value to 1MB for the
moment, but it could use some performance studies to tune it.
* Adds an early-failure path to the compressor as suggested by Jan:
if it's been unable to find even one compressible substring in the
first 1KB (parameterizable), assume we're looking at incompressible
input and give up. (Possibly this logic can be improved, but I'll
commit it as-is for now.)
* Improves the toasting heuristics so that when we have very large
fields with attstorage 'x' or 'e', we will push those out to toast
storage before considering inline compression of shorter fields.
This also responds to a suggestion of Greg's, though my original
proposal for a solution was a bit off base because it didn't fix
the problem for large 'e' fields.
There was some discussion in the earlier threads of exposing some
of the compression knobs to users, perhaps even on a per-column
basis. I have not done anything about that here. It seems to me
that if we are changing around the parameters, we'd better get some
experience and be sure we are happy with the design before we set
things in stone by providing user-visible knobs.

TopMemoryContext, rather than scattered through executor per-query contexts.
This poses no danger of memory leak since the ResourceOwner mechanism
guarantees release of no-longer-needed items. It is needed because the
per-query context might already be released by the time we try to clean up
the hash scan list. Report by ykhuang, diagnosis by Heikki.
Back-patch to 8.0, where the ResourceOwner-based cleanup was introduced.
The given test case does not fail before 8.2, probably because we rearranged
transaction abort processing somehow; but this coding is undoubtedly risky
so I'll patch 8.0 and 8.1 anyway.

temporary table; we can't support that because there's no way to clean up the

is also licensed to put a local variable declared that way at an unaligned
address. Which will not work if the variable is then manipulated with
SET_VARSIZE or other macros that assume alignment. So the previous patch
is not an unalloyed good, but on balance I think it's still a win, since
we have very few places that do that sort of thing. Fix the one place in
tuptoaster.c that does it. Per buildfarm results from gypsy_moth
(I'm a bit surprised that only one machine showed a failure).

represented as "char ...[4]" not "int32". Since the length word is never
supposed to be accessed via this struct member anyway, this won't break
any existing code that is following the rules. The advantage is that C
compilers will no longer assume that a pointer to struct varlena is
word-aligned, which prevents incorrect optimizations in TOAST-pointer
access and perhaps other places. gcc doesn't seem to do this (at least
not at -O2), but the problem is demonstrable on some other compilers.
I changed struct inet as well, but didn't bother to touch a lot of other
struct definitions in which it wouldn't make any difference because there
were other fields forcing int alignment anyway. Hopefully none of those
struct definitions are used for accessing unaligned Datums.

data structures and backend internal APIs. This solves problems we've seen
recently with inconsistent layout of pg_control between machines that have
32-bit time_t and those that have already migrated to 64-bit time_t. Also,
we can get out from under the problem that Windows' Unix-API emulation is not
consistent about the width of time_t.
There are a few remaining places where local time_t variables are used to hold
the current or recent result of time(NULL). I didn't bother changing these
since they do not affect any cross-module APIs and surely all platforms will
have 64-bit time_t before overflow becomes an actual risk. time_t should
be avoided for anything visible to extension modules, however.

in whichever context happens to be current during a call of an xml.c function,
use a dedicated context that will not go away until we explicitly delete it
(which we do at transaction end or subtransaction abort). This makes recovery
after an error much simpler --- we don't have to individually delete the data
structures created by libxml. Also, we need to initialize and cleanup libxml
only once per transaction (if there's no error) instead of once per function
call, so it should be a bit faster. We'll need to keep an eye out for
intra-transaction memory leaks, though. Alvaro and Tom.

its second pass over the table. It has to start at block zero, else the
"merge join" logic for detecting which TIDs are already in the index
doesn't work. Hence, extend heapam.c's API so that callers can enable or
disable syncscan. (I put in an option to disable buffer access strategy,
too, just in case somebody needs it.) Per report from Hannes Dorbath.

and CLUSTER) execute as the table owner rather than the calling user, using
the same privilege-switching mechanism already used for SECURITY DEFINER
functions. The purpose of this change is to ensure that user-defined
functions used in index definitions cannot acquire the privileges of a
superuser account that is performing routine maintenance. While a function
used in an index is supposed to be IMMUTABLE and thus not able to do anything
very interesting, there are several easy ways around that restriction; and
even if we could plug them all, there would remain a risk of reading sensitive
information and broadcasting it through a covert channel such as CPU usage.
To prevent bypassing this security measure, execution of SET SESSION
AUTHORIZATION and SET ROLE is now forbidden within a SECURITY DEFINER context.
Thanks to Itagaki Takahiro for reporting this vulnerability.

since these seem to happen after all in corrupted indexes. Make sure we
supply the index name in all cases, and provide relevant block numbers where
available. Also consistently identify the index name as such.

constraint status of copied indexes (bug #3774), as well as various other
small bugs such as failure to pstrdup when needed. Allow INCLUDING INDEXES
indexes to be merged with identical declared indexes (perhaps not real useful,
but the code is there and having it not apply to LIKE indexes seems pretty
unorthogonal). Avoid useless work in generateClonedIndexStmt(). Undo some
poorly chosen API changes, and put a couple of routines in modules that seem
to be better places for them.

but no database changes have been made since the last CommandCounterIncrement.
This should result in a significant improvement in the number of "commands"
that can typically be performed within a transaction before hitting the 2^32
CommandId size limit. In particular this buys back (and more) the possible
adverse consequences of my previous patch to fix plan caching behavior.
The implementation requires tracking whether the current CommandCounter
value has been "used" to mark any tuples. CommandCounter values stored into
snapshots are presumed not to be used for this purpose. This requires some
small executor changes, since the executor used to conflate the curcid of
the snapshot it was using with the command ID to mark output tuples with.
Separating these concepts allows some small simplifications in executor APIs.
Something for the TODO list: look into having CommandCounterIncrement not do
AcceptInvalidationMessages. It seems fairly bogus to be doing it there,
but exactly where to do it instead isn't clear, and I'm disinclined to mess
with asynchronous behavior during late beta.

GetMemoryChunkSpace, not just the palloc request size. This brings the
allocatedMemory counter close enough to reality (as measured by
MemoryContextStats printouts) that I think we can get rid of the arbitrary
factor-of-2 adjustment that was put into the code initially. Given the
sensitivity of GIN build to work memory size, not using as much of work
memory as we're allowed to seems a pretty bad idea.

we re-use the relfilenode, then crash, then replay the deletion and
recreation of the file. Even then we'd be OK if all insertions into the
new relation had been WAL-logged ... but that's not guaranteed given all
the no-WAL-logging optimizations that have recently been added.

even in code paths where we don't pay any subsequent attention to the typmod
value. This seems needed in view of the fact that 8.3's generalized typmod
support will accept a lot of bogus syntax, such as "timestamp(foo)" or
"record(int, 42)" --- if we allow such things to pass without comment,
users will get confused. Per a recent example from Greg Stark.
To implement this in a way that's not very vulnerable to future
bugs-of-omission, refactor the API of parse_type.c's TypeName lookup routines
so that typmod validation is folded into the base lookup operation. Callers
can still choose not to receive the encoded typmod, but we'll check the
decoration anyway if it's present.
