| | | | | | | | These seem to be leftovers from old patches, perhaps. Masahiko Sawada Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/CAD21AoDuAYsRb3Q9aobkFZ6DZMWxsyg4HOmgkwgeWNfSkTwGxw@mail.gmail.com
* Phase 2 pgindent run for v12.Tom Lane2019-05-22
| | | | | | | | | Switch to 2.1 version of pg_bsd_indent. This formats multiline function declarations "correctly", that is with additional lines of parameter declarations indented to match where the first line's left parenthesis is.

* Use size_t consistently in dsa.{ch}.Thomas Munro2018-09-22
| | | | | | | | Takeshi Ideriha complained that there is a mixture of Size and size_t in dsa.c and corresponding header. Let's use size_t. Back-patch to 10 where dsa.c landed, to make future back-patching easy. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/4E72940DA2BF16479384A86D54D0988A6F19ABD9%40G01JPEXMBKW04

* Phase 2 of pgindent updates.Tom Lane2017-06-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Change pg_bsd_indent to follow upstream rules for placement of comments to the right of code, and remove pgindent hack that caused comments following #endif to not obey the general rule. Commit e3860ffa4dd0dad0dd9eea4be9cc1412373a8c89 wasn't actually using the published version of pg_bsd_indent, but a hacked-up version that tried to minimize the amount of movement of comments to the right of code. The situation of interest is where such a comment has to be moved to the right of its default placement at column 33 because there's code there. BSD indent has always moved right in units of tab stops in such cases --- but in the previous incarnation, indent was working in 8-space tab stops, while now it knows we use 4-space tabs. So the net result is that in about half the cases, such comments are placed one tab stop left of before. This is better all around: it leaves more room on the line for comment text, and it means that in such cases the comment uniformly starts at the next 4-space tab stop after the code, rather than sometimes one and sometimes two tabs after. Also, ensure that comments following #endif are indented the same as comments following other preprocessor commands such as #else. That inconsistency turns out to have been self-inflicted damage from a poorly-thought-through post-indent "fixup" in pgindent. This patch is much less interesting than the first round of indent changes, but also bulkier, so I thought it best to separate the effects.

* Make dsa_allocate interface more like MemoryContextAlloc.Robert Haas2017-02-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A new function dsa_allocate_extended now takes flags which indicate that huge allocations should be permitted, that out-of-memory conditions should not throw an error, and/or that the returned memory should be zero-filled, just like MemoryContextAllocateExtended. Commit 9acb85597f1223ac26a5b19a9345849c43d0ff54, which added dsa_allocate0, was broken because it failed to account for the possibility that dsa_allocate() might return InvalidDsaPointer. This fixes that problem along the way. Thomas Munro, with some comment changes by me. Discussion: http://postgr.es/m/CA+Tgmobt7CcF_uQP2UQwWmu4K9qCHehMJP9_9m1urwP8hbOeHQ@mail.gmail.com
* Add new function dsa_allocate0.Robert Haas2017-02-16
| | | | | | | This does the same thing as dsa_allocate, except that the memory is guaranteed to be zero-filled on return. Dilip Kumar, adjusted by me.
* Fix possible crash reading pg_stat_activity.Robert Haas2017-01-05
| | | | | | | | | | With the old code, a backend that read pg_stat_activity without ever having executed a parallel query might see a backend in the midst of executing one waiting on a DSA LWLock, resulting in a crash. The solution is for backends to register the tranche at startup time, not the first time a parallel query is executed. Report by Andreas Seltenreich. Patch by me, reviewed by Thomas Munro.

* Fix more DSA problems uncovered by the buildfarm.Robert Haas2016-12-05
| | | | | | | | | | On 32-bit systems, don't try to use 64-bit DSA pointers, because the computation of DSA_MAX_SEGMENT_SIZE overflows Size. Cast 1 to Size before shifting it, so that the compiler doesn't produce a result of the wrong width. In passing, change one use of size_t to Size.
* Try to fix some DSA-related compiler warnings.Robert Haas2016-12-05
| | | | | | | | | Commit 13df76a537cca3b8884911d8fdf7c89a457a8dd3 was overconfident about how portable %016lx is. Some compilers complain because they need %016llx, while platforms where DSA pointers are only 32 bits get unhappy about using a 64-bit format for a 32-bit quantity. Thomas Munro, per an off-list suggestion from me.

* Introduce dynamic shared memory areas.Robert Haas2016-12-02
Programmers discovered decades ago that it was useful to have a simple interface for allocating and freeing memory, which is why malloc() and free() were invented. Unfortunately, those handy tools don't work with dynamic shared memory segments because those are specific to PostgreSQL and are not necessarily mapped at the same address in every cooperating process. So invent our own allocator instead. This makes it possible for processes cooperating as part of parallel query execution to allocate and free chunks of memory without having to reserve them prior to the start of execution. It could also be used for longer lived objects; for example, we could consider storing data for pg_stat_statements or the stats collector in shared memory using these interfaces, rather than writing them to files. Basically, anything that needs shared memory but can't predict in advance how much it's going to need might find this useful. Thomas Munro and Robert Haas. The original code (of mine) on which Thomas based his work was actually designed to be a new backend-local memory allocator for PostgreSQL, but that hasn't gone anywhere - or not yet, anyway. Thomas took that work and performed major refactoring and extensive modifications to make it work with dynamic shared memory, including the addition of appropriate locking.
