* Implement ALTER TABLE .. SET LOGGED / UNLOGGEDAlvaro Herrera2014-08-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | This enables changing permanent (logged) tables to unlogged and vice-versa. (Docs for ALTER TABLE / SET TABLESPACE got shuffled in an order that hopefully makes more sense than the original.)

* Aggressively freeze tables when CLUSTER or VACUUM FULL rewrites them.Robert Haas2014-01-02
| | | | | | | | | We haven't wanted to do this in the past on the grounds that in rare cases the original xmin value will be needed for forensic purposes, but commit 37484ad2aacef5ec794f4dd3d5cf814475180a78 removes that objection, so now we can. Per extensive discussion, among many people, on pgsql-hackers.
* Rename various "freeze multixact" variablesAlvaro Herrera2013-09-16
| | | | | | | | | It seems to make more sense to use "cutoff multixact" terminology throughout the backend code; "freeze" is associated with replacing of an Xid with FrozenTransactionId, which is not what we do for MultiXactIds. Andres Freund Some adjustments by Álvaro Herrera
* Add support for REFRESH MATERIALIZED VIEW CONCURRENTLY.Kevin Grittner2013-07-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | This allows reads to continue without any blocking while a REFRESH runs. The new data appears atomically as part of transaction commit. Review questioned the Assert that a matview was not a system relation. This will be addressed separately. Reviewed by Hitoshi Harada, Robert Haas, Andres Freund. Merged after review with security patch f3ab5d4.

* Improve concurrency of foreign key lockingAlvaro Herrera2013-01-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch introduces two additional lock modes for tuples: "SELECT FOR KEY SHARE" and "SELECT FOR NO KEY UPDATE". These don't block each other, in contrast with already existing "SELECT FOR SHARE" and "SELECT FOR UPDATE". UPDATE commands that do not modify the values stored in the columns that are part of the key of the tuple now grab a SELECT FOR NO KEY UPDATE lock on the tuple, allowing them to proceed concurrently with tuple locks of the FOR KEY SHARE variety. Foreign key triggers now use FOR KEY SHARE instead of FOR SHARE; this means the concurrency improvement applies to them, which is the whole point of this patch. The added tuple lock semantics require some rejiggering of the multixact module, so that the locking level that each transaction is holding can be stored alongside its Xid. Also, multixacts now need to persist across server restarts and crashes, because they can now represent not only tuple locks, but also tuple updates. This means we need more careful tracking of lifetime of pg_multixact SLRU files; since they now persist longer, we require more infrastructure to figure out when they can be removed. pg_upgrade also needs to be careful to copy pg_multixact files over from the old server to the new, or at least part of multixact.c state, depending on the versions of the old and new servers. Tuple time qualification rules (HeapTupleSatisfies routines) need to be careful not to consider tuples with the "is multi" infomask bit set as being only locked; they might need to look up MultiXact values (i.e. possibly do pg_multixact I/O) to find out the Xid that updated a tuple, whereas they previously were assured to only use information readily available from the tuple header. This is considered acceptable, because the extra I/O would involve cases that would previously cause some commands to block waiting for concurrent transactions to finish. Another important change is the fact that locking tuples that have previously been updated causes the future versions to be marked as locked, too; this is essential for correctness of foreign key checks. This causes additional WAL-logging, also (there was previously a single WAL record for a locked tuple; now there are as many as updated copies of the tuple there exist.) With all this in place, contention related to tuples being checked by foreign key rules should be much reduced. As a bonus, the old behavior that a subtransaction grabbing a stronger tuple lock than the parent (sub)transaction held on a given tuple and later aborting caused the weaker lock to be lost, has been fixed. Many new spec files were added for isolation tester framework, to ensure overall behavior is sane. There's probably room for several more tests. There were several reviewers of this patch; in particular, Noah Misch and Andres Freund spent considerable time in it. Original idea for the patch came from Simon Riggs, after a problem report by Joel Jacobson. Most code is from me, with contributions from Marti Raudsepp, Alexander Shulgin, Noah Misch and Andres Freund. This patch was discussed in several pgsql-hackers threads; the most important start at the following message-ids: AANLkTimo9XVcEzfiBR-ut3KVNDkjm2Vxh+t8kAmWjPuv@mail.gmail.com 1290721684-sup-3951@alvh.no-ip.org 1294953201-sup-2099@alvh.no-ip.org 1320343602-sup-2290@alvh.no-ip.org 1339690386-sup-8927@alvh.no-ip.org 4FE5FF020200002500048A3D@gw.wicourts.gov 4FEAB90A0200002500048B7D@gw.wicourts.gov

* Create a "relation mapping" infrastructure to support changing the relfilenodesTom Lane2010-02-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | of shared or nailed system catalogs. This has two key benefits: * The new CLUSTER-based VACUUM FULL can be applied safely to all catalogs. * We no longer have to use an unsafe reindex-in-place approach for reindexing shared catalogs. CLUSTER on nailed catalogs now works too, although I left it disabled on shared catalogs because the resulting pg_index.indisclustered update would only be visible in one database. Since reindexing shared system catalogs is now fully transactional and crash-safe, the former special cases in REINDEX behavior have been removed; shared catalogs are treated the same as non-shared. This commit does not do anything about the recently-discussed problem of deadlocks between VACUUM FULL/CLUSTER on a system catalog and other concurrent queries; will address that in a separate patch. As a stopgap, parallel_schedule has been tweaked to run vacuum.sql by itself, to avoid such failures during the regression tests.
* Restructure CLUSTER/newstyle VACUUM FULL/ALTER TABLE support so that swappingTom Lane2010-02-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | of old and new toast tables can be done either at the logical level (by swapping the heaps' reltoastrelid links) or at the physical level (by swapping the relfilenodes of the toast tables and their indexes). This is necessary infrastructure for upcoming changes to support CLUSTER/VAC FULL on shared system catalogs, where we cannot change reltoastrelid. The physical swap saves a few catalog updates too. We unfortunately have to keep the logical-level swap logic because in some cases we will be adding or deleting a toast table, so there's no possibility of a physical swap. However, that only happens as a consequence of schema changes in the table, which we do not need to support for system catalogs, so such cases aren't an obstacle for that. In passing, refactor the cluster support functions a little bit to eliminate unnecessarily-duplicated code; and fix the problem that while CLUSTER had been taught to rename the final toast table at need, ALTER TABLE had not.
* Support rewritten-based full vacuum as VACUUM FULL. TraditionalItagaki Takahiro2010-01-06
| | | | | | | | | | | VACUUM FULL was renamed to VACUUM FULL INPLACE. Also added a new option -i, --inplace for vacuumdb to perform FULL INPLACE vacuuming. Since the new VACUUM FULL uses CLUSTER infrastructure, we cannot use it for system tables. VACUUM FULL for system tables always fall back into VACUUM FULL INPLACE silently.

* Have CLUSTER advance the table's relfrozenxid. The new frozen point is theAlvaro Herrera2007-05-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | FreezeXid introduced in a recent commit, so there isn't any data loss in this approach. Doing it causes ALTER TABLE (or rather, the forms of it that cause a full table rewrite) to be affected as well. In this case, the frozen point is RecentXmin, because after the rewrite all the tuples are relabeled with the rewriting transaction's Xid. TOAST tables are fixed automatically as well, as fallout of the way they were already being handled in the respective code paths. With this patch, there is no longer need to VACUUM tables for Xid wraparound purposes that have been cleaned up via TRUNCATE or CLUSTER.
* First phase of plan-invalidation project: create a plan cache managementTom Lane2007-03-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | module and teach PREPARE and protocol-level prepared statements to use it. In service of this, rearrange utility-statement processing so that parse analysis does not assume table schemas can't change before execution for utility statements (necessary because we don't attempt to re-acquire locks for utility statements when reusing a stored plan). This requires some refactoring of the ProcessUtility API, but it ends up cleaner anyway, for instance we can get rid of the QueryContext global. Still to do: fix up SPI and related code to use the plan cache; I'm tempted to try to make SQL functions use it too. Also, there are at least some aspects of system state that we want to ensure remain the same during a replan as in the original processing; search_path certainly ought to behave that way for instance, and perhaps there are others.

* Get rid of cluster.c's apparatus for rebuilding a relation's indexesTom Lane2004-05-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | in favor of using the REINDEX TABLE apparatus, which does the same thing simpler and faster. Also, make TRUNCATE not use cluster.c at all, but just assign a new relfilenode and REINDEX. This partially addresses Hartmut Raschick's complaint from last December that 7.4's TRUNCATE is an order of magnitude slower than prior releases. By getting rid of a lot of unnecessary catalog updates, these changes buy back about a factor of two (on my system). The remaining overhead seems associated with creating and deleting storage files, which we may not be able to do much about without abandoning transaction safety for TRUNCATE.

* ALTER TABLE rewrite. New cool stuff:Tom Lane2004-05-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * ALTER ... ADD COLUMN with defaults and NOT NULL constraints works per SQL spec. A default is implemented by rewriting the table with the new value stored in each row. * ALTER COLUMN TYPE. You can change a column's datatype to anything you want, so long as you can specify how to convert the old value. Rewrites the table. (Possible future improvement: optimize no-op conversions such as varchar(N) to varchar(N+1).) * Multiple ALTER actions in a single ALTER TABLE command. You can perform any number of column additions, type changes, and constraint additions with only one pass over the table contents. Basic documentation provided in ALTER TABLE ref page, but some more docs work is needed. Original patch from Rod Taylor, additional work from Tom Lane.
