* Add an EXPLAIN (BUFFERS) option to show buffer-usage statistics.Robert Haas2009-12-15

* 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.
* Remove BufferBlockPointers array in favor of a base + (bufnum) * BLCKSZTom Lane2005-08-12
| | | | | | | | computation. On modern machines this is as fast if not faster, and we don't have to clog the CPU's L2 cache with a tens-of-KB pointer array. If we ever decide to adopt a more dynamic allocation method for shared buffers, we'll probably have to revert this patch, but in the meantime we might as well save a few bytes and nanoseconds. Per Qingqing Zhou.
* Cause ShutdownPostgres to do a normal transaction abort during backendTom Lane2005-08-08
| | | | | | | | exit, instead of trying to take shortcuts. Introduce some additional shutdown callback routines to eliminate kluges like having ProcKill be responsible for shutting down the buffer manager. Ensure that the order of operations during shutdown is predictable and what you would expect given the module layering.
* Split the shared-memory array of PGPROC pointers out of the sinvalTom Lane2005-05-19
| | | | | | communication structure, and make it its own module with its own lock. This should reduce contention at least a little, and it definitely makes the code seem cleaner. Per my recent proposal.
* Replace the BufMgrLock with separate locks on the lookup hashtable andTom Lane2005-03-04
| | | | | | | | the freelist, plus per-buffer spinlocks that protect access to individual shared buffer headers. This requires abandoning a global freelist (since the freelist is a global contention point), which shoots down ARC and 2Q as well as plain LRU management. Adopt a clock sweep algorithm instead. Preliminary results show substantial improvement in multi-backend situations.
* Ensure that all details of the ARC algorithm are hidden within freelist.c.Tom Lane2005-02-03
| | | | | This refactoring does not change any algorithms or data structures, just remove visibility of the ARC datastructures from other source files.
* Tag appropriate files for rc3PostgreSQL Daemon2004-12-31
| | | | | | | | Also performed an initial run through of upgrading our Copyright date to extend to 2005 ... first run here was very simple ... change everything where: grep 1996-2004 && the word 'Copyright' ... scanned through the generated list with 'less' first, and after, to make sure that I only picked up the right entries ...
* Remove BufferLocks[] array in favor of a single pointer to the bufferTom Lane2004-10-16
| | | | | | (if any) currently waited for by LockBufferForCleanup(), which is all that we were using it for anymore. Saves some space and eliminates proportional-to-NBuffers slowdown in UnlockBuffers().

* Code review for EXEC_BACKEND changes. Reduce the number of #ifdefs byTom Lane2004-05-28
| | | | | | | | | | | about a third, make it work on non-Windows platforms again. (But perhaps I broke the WIN32 code, since I have no way to test that.) Fold all the paths that fork postmaster child processes to go through the single routine SubPostmasterMain, which takes care of resurrecting the state that would normally be inherited from the postmaster (including GUC variables). Clean up some places where there's no particularly good reason for the EXEC and non-EXEC cases to work differently. Take care of one or two FIXMEs that remained in the code.
* Make LocalRefCount and PrivateRefCount arrays of int32, rather than long.Neil Conway2004-04-22
| | | | This saves a small amount of per-backend memory for LP64 machines.
* Another round of code cleanup on bufmgr. Use BM_VALID flag to keep trackTom Lane2004-04-21
| | | | | | | | | of whether we have successfully read data into a buffer; this makes the error behavior a bit more transparent (IMHO anyway), and also makes it work correctly for local buffers which don't use Start/TerminateBufferIO. Collapse three separate functions for writing a shared buffer into one. This overlaps a bit with cleanups that Neil proposed awhile back, but seems not to have committed yet.
* Code review for ARC patch. Eliminate static variables, improve handlingTom Lane2004-04-19
| | | | | | | | of VACUUM cases so that VACUUM requests don't affect the ARC state at all, avoid corner case where BufferSync would uselessly rewrite a buffer that no longer contains the page that was to be flushed. Make some minor other cleanups in and around the bufmgr as well, such as moving PinBuffer and UnpinBuffer into bufmgr.c where they really belong.
* Fixed bug where FlushRelationBuffers() did call StrategyInvalidateBuffer()Jan Wieck2004-02-12
| | | | | | | | | | | for already empty buffers because their buffer tag was not cleard out when the buffers have been invalidated before. Also removed the misnamed BM_FREE bufhdr flag and replaced the checks, which effectively ask if the buffer is unpinned, with checks against the refcount field. Jan

* I posted some bufmgr cleanup a few weeks ago, but it conflicted withNeil Conway2003-12-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | some concurrent changes Jan was making to the bufmgr. Here's an updated version of the patch -- it should apply cleanly to CVS HEAD and passes the regression tests. This patch makes the following changes: - remove the UnlockAndReleaseBuffer() and UnlockAndWriteBuffer() macros, and replace uses of them with calls to the appropriate functions. - remove a bunch of #ifdef BMTRACE code: it is ugly & broken (i.e. it doesn't compile) - make BufferReplace() return a bool, not an int - cleanup some logic in bufmgr.c; should be functionality equivalent to the previous code, just cleaner now - remove the BM_PRIVATE flag as it is unused - improve a few comments, etc.

* Remove ShutdownBufferPoolAccess exit callback, and do the work inTom Lane2002-09-25
| | | | | | | | | ProcKill instead, where we still have a PGPROC with which to wait on LWLocks. This fixes 'can't wait without a PROC structure' failures occasionally seen during backend shutdown (I'm surprised they weren't more frequent, actually). Add an Assert() to LWLockAcquire to help catch any similar mistakes in future. Fix failure to update MyProcPid for standalone backends and pgstat processes.

* Remove sys/types.h in files that include postgres.h, and hence c.h,Bruce Momjian2002-09-02

* Restructure local-buffer handling per recent pghackers discussion.Tom Lane2002-08-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The local buffer manager is no longer used for newly-created relations (unless they are TEMP); a new non-TEMP relation goes through the shared bufmgr and thus will participate normally in checkpoints. But TEMP relations use the local buffer manager throughout their lifespan. Also, operations in TEMP relations are not logged in WAL, thus improving performance. Since it's no longer necessary to fsync relations as they move out of the local buffers into shared buffers, quite a lot of smgr.c/md.c/fd.c code is no longer needed and has been removed: there's no concept of a dirty relation anymore in md.c/fd.c, and we never fsync anything but WAL. Still TODO: improve local buffer management algorithms so that it would be reasonable to increase NLocBuffer.

| | | | | | | | | portability issues). Caller-visible data structures are now allocated on MAXALIGN boundaries, allowing safe use of datatypes wider than 'long'. Rejigger hash_create API so that caller specifies size of key and total size of entry, not size of key and size of rest of entry. This simplifies life considerably since each number is just a sizeof(), and padding issues etc. are taken care of automatically.
* Implement new 'lightweight lock manager' that's intermediate betweenTom Lane2001-09-29
| | | | | | | | | existing lock manager and spinlocks: it understands exclusive vs shared lock but has few other fancy features. Replace most uses of spinlocks with lightweight locks. All remaining uses of spinlocks have very short lock hold times (a few dozen instructions), so tweak spinlock backoff code to work efficiently given this assumption. All per my proposal on pghackers 26-Sep-01.
* Implement LockBufferForCleanup(), which will allow concurrent VACUUMTom Lane2001-07-06
| | | | | to wait until it's safe to remove tuples and compact free space in a shared buffer page. Miscellaneous small code cleanups in bufmgr, too.

* Clean up backend-exit-time cleanup behavior. Use on_shmem_exit callbacksTom Lane2000-12-18
| | | | | | to ensure that we have released buffer refcounts and so forth, rather than putting ad-hoc operations before (some of the calls to) proc_exit. Add commentary to discourage future hackers from repeating that mistake.
* Rearrange bufmgr header files so that buf_internals.h need not beTom Lane2000-11-30
| | | | | | | included by everything that includes bufmgr.h --- it's supposed to be internals, after all, not part of the API! This fixes the conflict against FreeBSD headers reported by Rosenman, by making it unnecessary for s_lock.h to be included by plperl.c.
* Significant cleanups in SysV IPC handling (shared mem and semaphores).Tom Lane2000-11-28
| | | | | | | | | | | IPC key assignment will now work correctly even when multiple postmasters are using same logical port number (which is possible given -k switch). There is only one shared-mem segment per postmaster now, not 3. Rip out broken code for non-TAS case in bufmgr and xlog, substitute a complete S_LOCK emulation using semaphores in spin.c. TAS and non-TAS logic is now exactly the same. When deadlock is detected, "Deadlock detected" is now the elog(ERROR) message, rather than a NOTICE that comes out before an unhelpful ERROR.
* New relcache hash table with RelFileNode as key to be usedVadim B. Mikheev2000-10-23
| | | | | | | from bufmgr - it would be nice to have separate hash in smgr for node <--> fd mappings, but for the moment it's easy to add new hash to relcache. Fixed small bug in xlog.c:ReadRecord.
