management. The paper clearly describes many of the ideas embodied in
our current hashing code, but as far as I could find out there is not
a direct code heritage. (Mike Olsen recalls discussion of this paper
at Postgres meetings but believes it "informed the Postgres implementation
probably just at the design level". Margo herself says she wasn't
involved with Postgres' hash code.) Credit where credit is due 'n all
that, even if fifteen years after the fact.

per-column options for btree indexes. The planner's support for this is still
pretty rudimentary; it does not yet know how to plan mergejoins with
nondefault ordering options. The documentation is pretty rudimentary, too.
I'll work on improving that stuff later.
Note incompatible change from prior behavior: ORDER BY ... USING will now be
rejected if the operator is not a less-than or greater-than member of some
btree opclass. This prevents less-than-sane behavior if an operator that
doesn't actually define a proper sort ordering is selected.

having md.c return a success/failure boolean to smgr.c, which was just going
to elog anyway, let md.c issue the elog messages itself. This allows better
error reporting, particularly in cases such as "short read" or "short write"
which Peter was complaining of. Also, remove the kluge of allowing mdread()
to return zeroes from a read-beyond-EOF: this is now an error condition
except when InRecovery or zero_damaged_pages = true. (Hash indexes used to
require that behavior, but no more.) Also, enforce that mdwrite() is to be
used for rewriting existing blocks while mdextend() is to be used for
extending the relation EOF. This restriction lets us get rid of the old
ad-hoc defense against creating huge files by an accidental reference to
a bogus block number: we'll only create new segments in mdextend() not
mdwrite() or mdread(). (Again, when InRecovery we allow it anyway, since
we need to allow updates of blocks that were later truncated away.)
Also, clean up the original makeshift patch for bug #2737: move the
responsibility for padding relation segments to full length into md.c.

cases. Operator classes now exist within "operator families". While most
families are equivalent to a single class, related classes can be grouped
into one family to represent the fact that they are semantically compatible.
Cross-type operators are now naturally adjunct parts of a family, without
having to wedge them into a particular opclass as we had done originally.
This commit restructures the catalogs and cleans up enough of the fallout so
that everything still works at least as well as before, but most of the work
needed to actually improve the planner's behavior will come later. Also,
there are not yet CREATE/DROP/ALTER OPERATOR FAMILY commands; the only way
to create a new family right now is to allow CREATE OPERATOR CLASS to make
one by default. I owe some more documentation work, too. But that can all
be done in smaller pieces once this infrastructure is in place.

in normal operation, and we can avoid rewriting pg_control at every log
segment switch if we don't insist that these values be valid. Reducing
the number of pg_control updates is a good idea for both performance and
reliability. It does make pg_resetxlog's life a bit harder, but that seems
a good tradeoff; and anyway the change to pg_resetxlog amounts to automating
something people formerly needed to do by hand, namely look at the existing
pg_xlog files to make sure the new WAL start point was past them.
In passing, change the wording of xlog.c's "database system was interrupted"
messages: describe the pg_control timestamp as "last known up at" rather than
implying it is the exact time of service interruption. With this change the
timestamp will generally be the time of the last checkpoint, which could be
many minutes before the failure; and we've already seen indications that
people tend to misinterpret the old wording.

StartupXLOG and ShutdownXLOG no longer need to be critical sections, because
in all contexts where they are invoked, elog(ERROR) would be translated to
elog(FATAL) anyway. (One change in bgwriter.c is needed to make this true:
set ExitOnAnyError before trying to exit. This is a good fix anyway since
the existing code would have gone into an infinite loop on elog(ERROR) during
shutdown.) That avoids a misleading report of PANIC during semi-orderly
failures. Modify the postmaster to include the startup process in the set of
processes that get SIGTERM when a fast shutdown is requested, and also fix it
to not try to restart the bgwriter if the bgwriter fails while trying to write
the shutdown checkpoint. Net result is that "pg_ctl stop -m fast" does
something reasonable for a system in warm standby mode, and so should Unix
system shutdown (ie, universal SIGTERM). Per gripe from Stephen Harris and
some corner-case testing of my own.

AbortTransaction, which would lead to recursion and eventual PANIC exit
as illustrated in recent report from Jeff Davis. First, in xact.c create
a special dedicated memory context for AbortTransaction to run in. This
solves the problem as long as AbortTransaction doesn't need more than 32K
(or whatever other size we create the context with). But in corner cases
it might. Second, in trigger.c arrange to keep pending after-trigger event
records in separate contexts that can be freed near the beginning of
AbortTransaction, rather than having them persist until CleanupTransaction
as before. Third, in portalmem.c arrange to free executor state data
earlier as well. These two changes should result in backing off the
out-of-memory condition before AbortTransaction needs any significant
amount of memory, at least in typical cases such as memory overrun due
to too many trigger events or too big an executor hash table. And all
the same for subtransaction abort too, of course.

Windows), arrange for each postmaster child process to be its own process
group leader, and deliver signals SIGINT, SIGTERM, SIGQUIT to the whole
process group not only the direct child process. This provides saner behavior
for archive and recovery scripts; in particular, it's possible to shut down a
warm-standby recovery server using "pg_ctl stop -m immediate", since delivery
of SIGQUIT to the startup subprocess will result in killing the waiting
recovery_command. Also, this makes Query Cancel and statement_timeout apply
to scripts being run from backends via system(). (There is no support in the
core backend for that, but it's widely done using untrusted PLs.) Per gripe
from Stephen Harris and subsequent discussion.

preference for filling pages out-of-order tends to confuse the sanity checks
in md.c, as per report from Balazs Nagy in bug #2737. The fix is to ensure
that the smgr-level code always has the same idea of the logical EOF as the
hash index code does, by using ReadBuffer(P_NEW) where we are adding a single
page to the end of the index, and using smgrextend() to reserve a large batch
of pages when creating a new splitpoint. The patch is a bit ugly because it
avoids making any changes in md.c, which seems the most prudent approach for a
backpatchable beta-period fix. After 8.3 development opens, I'll take a look
at a cleaner but more invasive patch, in particular getting rid of the now
unnecessary hack to allow reading beyond EOF in mdread().
Backpatch as far as 7.4. The bug likely exists in 7.3 as well, but because
of the magnitude of the 7.3-to-7.4 changes in hash, the later-version patch
doesn't even begin to apply. Given the other known bugs in the 7.3-era hash
code, it does not seem worth trying to develop a separate patch for 7.3.

cases where we already hold the desired lock "indirectly", either via
membership in a MultiXact or because the lock was originally taken by a
different subtransaction of the current transaction. These cases must be
accounted for to avoid needless deadlocks and/or inappropriate replacement of
an exclusive lock with a shared lock. Per report from Clarence Gardner and
subsequent investigation.

30 seconds instead of retrying forever. Also modify xlog.c so that if
it fails to rename an old xlog segment up to a future slot, it will
unlink the segment instead. Per discussion of bug #2712, in which it
became apparent that Windows can handle unlinking a file that's being
held open, but not renaming it.

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.

deletion code to avoid the case where an upper-level btree page remains "half
dead" for a significant period of time, and to block insertions into a key
range that is in process of being re-assigned to the right sibling of the
deleted page's parent. This prevents the scenario reported by Ed L. wherein
index keys could become out-of-order in the grandparent index level.
Since this is a moderately invasive fix, I'm applying it only to HEAD.
The bug exists back to 7.4, but the back branches will get a different patch.

agreed these symbols are less easily confused. I made new pg_operator

some future release cycle. This commit only touches the core datatypes,
contrib will be fixed separately.

PGPROC array into snapshots, and use this information to avoid visits
to pg_subtrans in HeapTupleSatisfiesSnapshot. This appears to solve
the pg_subtrans-related context swap storm problem that's been reported
by several people for 8.1. While at it, modify GetSnapshotData to not
take an exclusive lock on ProcArrayLock, as closer analysis shows that
shared lock is always sufficient.

of the transaction ID counter. Nothing is done with the epoch except to
store it in checkpoint records, but this provides a foundation with which
add-on code can pretend that XIDs never wrap around. This is a severely

Per discussion, the epoch counter seems the only part of xxid that really
needs to be in the core server.

than N seconds apart. This allows a simple, if not very high performance,
means of guaranteeing that a PITR archive is no more than N seconds behind
real time. Also make pg_current_xlog_location return the WAL Write pointer,
add pg_current_xlog_insert_location to return the Insert pointer, and fix
pg_xlogfile_name_offset to return its results as a two-element record instead
of a smashed-together string, as per recent discussion.
