* Add buffer_std flag to MarkBufferDirtyHint().Jeff Davis2013-06-17
| | | | | | | | | | MarkBufferDirtyHint() writes WAL, and should know if it's got a standard buffer or not. Currently, the only callers where buffer_std is false are related to the FSM. In passing, rename XLOG_HINT to XLOG_FPI, which is more descriptive. Back-patch to 9.3.
* Allow I/O reliability checks using 16-bit checksumsSimon Riggs2013-03-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Checksums are set immediately prior to flush out of shared buffers and checked when pages are read in again. Hint bit setting will require full page write when block is dirtied, which causes various infrastructure changes. Extensive comments, docs and README. WARNING message thrown if checksum fails on non-all zeroes page; ERROR thrown but can be disabled with ignore_checksum_failure = on. Feature enabled by an initdb option, since transition from option off to option on is long and complex and has not yet been implemented. Default is not to use checksums. Checksum used is WAL CRC-32 truncated to 16-bits. Simon Riggs, Jeff Davis, Greg Smith Wide input and assistance from many community members. Thank you.

* Split tuple struct defs from htup.h to htup_details.hAlvaro Herrera2012-08-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | This reduces unnecessary exposure of other headers through htup.h, which is very widely included by many files. I have chosen to move the function prototypes to the new file as well, because that means htup.h no longer needs to include tupdesc.h. In itself this doesn't have much effect in indirect inclusion of tupdesc.h throughout the tree, because it's also required by execnodes.h; but it's something to explore in the future, and it seemed best to do the htup.h change now while I'm busy with it.

* Tidy up a few calls to smrgextend().Robert Haas2010-08-19
| | | | | | | | | In the new API introduced by my patch to include the backend ID in temprel filenames, the last argument to smrgextend() became skipFsync rather than isTemp, but these calls didn't get the memo. It's not really a problem to pass rel->rd_istemp rather than just plain false, because smgrextend() now automatically skips the fsync for temprels anyway, but this seems cleaner and saves some minute number of cycles.
* Include the backend ID in the relpath of temporary relations.Robert Haas2010-08-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This allows us to reliably remove all leftover temporary relation files on cluster startup without reference to system catalogs or WAL; therefore, we no longer include temporary relations in XLOG_XACT_COMMIT and XLOG_XACT_ABORT WAL records. Since these changes require including a backend ID in each SharedInvalSmgrMsg, the size of the SharedInvalidationMessage.id field has been reduced from two bytes to one, and the maximum number of connections has been reduced from INT_MAX / 4 to 2^23-1. It would be possible to remove these restrictions by increasing the size of SharedInvalidationMessage by 4 bytes, but right now that doesn't seem like a good trade-off. Review by Jaime Casanova and Tom Lane.

* Fix up rickety handling of relation-truncation interlocks.Tom Lane2010-02-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Move rd_targblock, rd_fsm_nblocks, and rd_vm_nblocks from relcache to the smgr relation entries, so that they will get reset to InvalidBlockNumber whenever an smgr-level flush happens. Because we now send smgr invalidation messages immediately (not at end of transaction) when a relation truncation occurs, this ensures that other backends will reset their values before they next access the relation. We no longer need the unreliable assumption that a VACUUM that's doing a truncation will hold its AccessExclusive lock until commit --- in fact, we can intentionally release that lock as soon as we've completed the truncation. This patch therefore reverts (most of) Alvaro's patch of 2009-11-10, as well as my marginal hacking on it yesterday. We can also get rid of assorted no-longer-needed relcache flushes, which are far more expensive than an smgr flush because they kill a lot more state. In passing this patch fixes smgr_redo's failure to perform visibility-map truncation, and cleans up some rather dubious assumptions in freespace.c and visibilitymap.c about when rd_fsm_nblocks and rd_vm_nblocks can be out of date.

| | | | | | | | | be used instead of the normal exclusive lock, and make WAL redo functions responsible for calling RestoreBkpBlocks(). They know better what kind of a lock they need. At the moment, this just moves things around with no functional change, but makes the hot standby patch that's under review cleaner.

* Rethink the way FSM truncation works. Instead of WAL-logging FSMHeikki Linnakangas2008-11-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | truncations in FSM code, call FreeSpaceMapTruncateRel from smgr_redo. To make that cleaner from modularity point of view, move the WAL-logging one level up to RelationTruncate, and move RelationTruncate and all the related WAL-logging to new src/backend/catalog/storage.c file. Introduce new RelationCreateStorage and RelationDropStorage functions that are used instead of calling smgrcreate/smgrscheduleunlink directly. Move the pending rel deletion stuff from smgrcreate/smgrscheduleunlink to the new functions. This leaves smgr.c as a thin wrapper around md.c; all the transactional stuff is now in storage.c. This will make it easier to add new forks with similar truncation logic, like the visibility map.
* Update FSM on WAL replay. This is a bit limited; the FSM is only updatedHeikki Linnakangas2008-10-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | on non-full-page-image WAL records, and quite arbitrarily, only if there's less than 20% free space on the page after the insert/update (not on HOT updates, though). The 20% cutoff should avoid most of the overhead, when replaying a bulk insertion, for example, while ensuring that pages that are full are marked as full in the FSM. This is mostly to avoid the nasty worst case scenario, where you replay from a PITR archive, and the FSM information in the base backup is really out of date. If there was a lot of pages that the outdated FSM claims to have free space, but don't actually have any, the first unlucky inserter after the recovery would traverse through all those pages, just to find out that they're full. We didn't have this problem with the old FSM implementation, because we simply threw the FSM information away on a non-clean shutdown.
* Unite ReadBufferWithFork, ReadBufferWithStrategy, and ZeroOrReadBufferHeikki Linnakangas2008-10-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | functions into one ReadBufferExtended function, that takes the strategy and mode as argument. There's three modes, RBM_NORMAL which is the default used by plain ReadBuffer(), RBM_ZERO, which replaces ZeroOrReadBuffer, and a new mode RBM_ZERO_ON_ERROR, which allows callers to read corrupt pages without throwing an error. The FSM needs the new mode to recover from corrupt pages, which could happend if we crash after extending an FSM file, and the new page is "torn". Add fork number to some error messages in bufmgr.c, that still lacked it.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | free space information is stored in a dedicated FSM relation fork, with each relation (except for hash indexes; they don't use FSM). This eliminates the max_fsm_relations and max_fsm_pages GUC options; remove any trace of them from the backend, initdb, and documentation. Rewrite contrib/pg_freespacemap to match the new FSM implementation. Also introduce a new variant of the get_raw_page(regclass, int4, int4) function in contrib/pageinspect that let's you to return pages from any relation fork, and a new fsm_page_contents() function to inspect the new FSM pages.

* 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.

| | | | | | | | chdir into PGDATA and subsequently use relative paths instead of absolute paths to access all files under PGDATA. This seems to give a small performance improvement, and it should make the system more robust against naive DBAs doing things like moving a database directory that has a live postmaster in it. Per recent discussion.
* Modify hash_search() API to prevent future occurrences of the errorTom Lane2005-05-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | spotted by Qingqing Zhou. The HASH_ENTER action now automatically fails with elog(ERROR) on out-of-memory --- which incidentally lets us eliminate duplicate error checks in quite a bunch of places. If you really need the old return-NULL-on-out-of-memory behavior, you can ask for HASH_ENTER_NULL. But there is now an Assert in that path checking that you aren't hoping to get that behavior in a palloc-based hash table. Along the way, remove the old HASH_FIND_SAVE/HASH_REMOVE_SAVED actions, which were not being used anywhere anymore, and were surely too ugly and unsafe to want to see revived again.
