More types could be added if needed. The message type is * identified by the first "int16" field of the message struct. Zero or * positive means a catcache inval message (and also serves as the catcache * ID field). -1 means a relcache inval message. Other negative values * are available to identify other inval message types. * * Shared-inval events are initially driven by detecting tuple inserts, * updates and deletions in system catalogs (see CacheInvalidateHeapTuple). * An update generates two inval events, one for the old tuple and one for * the new --- this is needed to get rid of both positive entries for the * old tuple, and negative cache entries associated with the new tuple's * cache key. (This could perhaps be optimized down to one event when the * cache key is not changing, but for now we don't bother to try.) Note that * the inval events themselves don't actually say whether the tuple is being * inserted or deleted. * * Note that some system catalogs have multiple caches on them (with different * indexes). On detecting a tuple invalidation in such a catalog, separate * catcache inval messages must be generated for each of its caches. The * catcache inval messages carry the hash value for the target tuple, so * that the catcache only needs to search one hash chain not all its chains, * and so that negative cache entries can be recognized with good accuracy. * (Of course this assumes that all the backends are using identical hashing * code, but that should be OK.) */ typedef struct { /* note: field layout chosen with an eye to alignment concerns */ int16 id; /* cache ID --- must be first */ ItemPointerData tuplePtr; /* tuple identifier in cached relation */ Oid dbId; /* database ID, or 0 if a shared relation */ uint32 hashValue; /* hash value of key for this catcache */ } SharedInvalCatcacheMsg; #define SHAREDINVALRELCACHE_ID (-1) typedef struct { int16 id; /* type field --- must be first */ Oid dbId; /* database ID, or 0 if a shared relation */ Oid relId; /* relation ID */ } SharedInvalRelcacheMsg; typedef union { int16 id; /* type field --- must be first */ SharedInvalCatcacheMsg cc; SharedInvalRelcacheMsg rc; } SharedInvalidationMessage; extern int SInvalShmemSize(int maxBackends); extern void CreateSharedInvalidationState(int maxBackends); extern void InitBackendSharedInvalidationState(void); extern void SendSharedInvalidMessage(SharedInvalidationMessage *msg); extern void ReceiveSharedInvalidMessages( void (*invalFunction) (SharedInvalidationMessage *msg), void (*resetFunction) (void)); extern bool DatabaseHasActiveBackends(Oid databaseId, bool ignoreMyself); extern bool TransactionIdIsInProgress(TransactionId xid); extern TransactionId GetOldestXmin(bool allDbs); extern int CountActiveBackends(void); /* Use "struct PGPROC", not PGPROC, to avoid including proc.h here */ extern struct PGPROC *BackendIdGetProc(BackendId procId); extern int CountEmptyBackendSlots(void); #endif /* SINVAL_H */
