Clean up code associated with updating pg_class statistics columns (relpages/reltuples). To do this, create formal support in heapam.c for "overwrite" tuple updates (including xlog replay capability) and use that instead of the ad-hoc overwrites we'd been using in VACUUM and CREATE INDEX. Take the responsibility for updating stats during CREATE INDEX out of the individual index AMs, and do it where it belongs, in catalog/index.c. Aside from being more modular, this avoids having to update the same tuple twice in some paths through CREATE INDEX. It's probably not measurably faster, but for sure it's a lot cleaner than before.

Replace functional-index facility with expressional indexes. Any column of an index can now be a computed expression instead of a simple variable. Restrictions on expressions are the same as for predicates (only immutable functions, no sub-selects). This fixes problems recently introduced with inlining SQL functions, because the inlining transformation is applied to both expression trees so the planner can still match them up. Along the way, improve efficiency of handling index predicates (both predicates and index expressions are now cached by the relcache) and fix 7.3 oversight that didn't record dependencies of predicate expressions.

#define DEFAULT_INDEX_TYPE "btree"
Restructure index AM interface for index building and index tuple deletion, per previous discussion on pghackers. Most of the duplicate code in different AMs' ambuild routines has been moved out to a common routine in index.c; this means that all index types now do the right things about inserting recently-dead tuples, etc. (I also removed support for EXTEND INDEX in the ambuild routines, since that's about to go away anyway, and it cluttered the code a lot.) The retail indextuple deletion routines have been replaced by a "bulk delete" routine in which the indexscan is inside the access method. I haven't pushed this change as far as it should go yet, but it should allow considerable simplification of the internal bookkeeping for deletions. Also, add flag columns to pg_am to eliminate various hardcoded tests on AM OIDs, and remove unused pg_am columns. Fix rtree and gist index types to not attempt to store NULLs; before this, gist usually crashed, while rtree managed not to crash but computed wacko bounding boxes for NULL entries (which might have had something to do with the performance problems we've heard about occasionally). Add AtEOXact routines to hash, rtree, and gist, all of which have static state that needs to be reset after an error. We discovered this need long ago for btree, but missed the other guys. Oh, one more thing: concurrent VACUUM is now the default.

Implement ALTER TABLE ADD UNIQUE/PRIMARY KEY USING INDEX. This feature allows a unique or pkey constraint to be created using an already-existing unique index. While the constraint isn't very functionally different from the bare index, it's nice to be able to do that for documentation purposes. The main advantage over just issuing a plain ALTER TABLE ADD UNIQUE/PRIMARY KEY is that the index can be created with CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY, so that there is not a long interval where the table is locked against updates. On the way, refactor some of the code in DefineIndex() and index_create() so that we don't have to pass through those functions in order to create the index constraint's catalog entries. Also, in parse_utilcmd.c, pass around the ParseState pointer in struct CreateStmtContext to save on notation, and add error location pointers to some error reports that didn't have one before.

const char *indexRelationName,
First phase of project to use fixed OIDs for all system catalogs and indexes. Extend the macros in include/catalog/*.h to carry the info about hand-assigned OIDs, and adjust the genbki script and bootstrap code to make the relations actually get those OIDs. Remove the small number of RelOid_pg_foo macros that we had in favor of a complete set named like the catname.h and indexing.h macros. Next phase will get rid of internal use of names for looking up catalogs and indexes; but this completes the changes forcing an initdb, so it looks like a good place to commit. Along the way, I made the shared relations (pg_database etc) not be 'bootstrap' relations any more, so as to reduce the number of hardwired entries and simplify changing those relations in future. I'm not sure whether they ever really needed to be handled as bootstrap relations, but it seems to work fine to not do so now.

IndexInfo *indexInfo,
Adjust naming of indexes and their columns per recent discussion. Index expression columns are now named after the FigureColname result for their expressions, rather than always being "pg_expression_N". Digits are appended to this name if needed to make the column name unique within the index. (That happens for regular columns too, thus fixing the old problem that CREATE INDEX fooi ON foo (f1, f1) fails. Before exclusion indexes there was no real reason to do such a thing, but now maybe there is.) Default names for indexes and associated constraints now include the column names of all their columns, not only the first one as in previous practice. (Of course, this will be truncated as needed to fit in NAMEDATALEN. Also, pkey indexes retain the historical behavior of not naming specific columns at all.) An example of the results: regression=# create table foo (f1 int, f2 text, regression(# exclude (f1 with =, lower(f2) with =)); NOTICE: CREATE TABLE / EXCLUDE will create implicit index "foo_f1_lower_exclusion" for table "foo" CREATE TABLE regression=# \d foo_f1_lower_exclusion Index "public.foo_f1_lower_exclusion" Column | Type | Definition --------+---------+------------ f1 | integer | f1 lower | text | lower(f2) btree, for table "public.foo"

Support ORDER BY ... NULLS FIRST/LAST, and add ASC/DESC/NULLS FIRST/NULLS LAST per-column options for btree indexes. The planner's support for this is still pretty rudimentary; it does not yet know how to plan mergejoins with nondefault ordering options. The documentation is pretty rudimentary, too. I'll work on improving that stuff later. Note incompatible change from prior behavior: ORDER BY ... USING will now be rejected if the operator is not a less-than or greater-than member of some btree opclass. This prevents less-than-sane behavior if an operator that doesn't actually define a proper sort ordering is selected.

int16 *coloptions,
Code review for FILLFACTOR patch. Change WITH grammar as per earlier discussion (including making def_arg allow reserved words), add missed opt_definition for UNIQUE case. Put the reloptions support code in a less random place (I chose to make a new file access/common/reloptions.c). Eliminate header inclusion creep. Make the index options functions safely user-callable (seems like client apps might like to be able to test validity of options before trying to make an index). Reduce overhead for normal case with no options by allowing rd_options to be NULL. Fix some unmaintainably klugy code, including getting rid of Natts_pg_class_fixed at long last. Some stylistic cleanup too, and pay attention to keeping comments in sync with code. Documentation still needs work, though I did fix the omissions in catalogs.sgml and indexam.sgml.

bool isprimary,
Second phase of committing Rod Taylor's pg_depend/pg_constraint patch. pg_relcheck is gone; CHECK, UNIQUE, PRIMARY KEY, and FOREIGN KEY constraints all have real live entries in pg_constraint. pg_depend exists, and RESTRICT/CASCADE options work on most kinds of DROP; however, pg_depend is not yet very well populated with dependencies. (Most of the ones that are present at this point just replace formerly hardwired associations, such as the implicit drop of a relation's pg_type entry when the relation is dropped.) Need to add more logic to create dependency entries, improve pg_dump to dump constraints in place of indexes and triggers, and add some regression tests.
2002-07-12 20:43:19 +02:00
bool isconstraint,
Support deferrable uniqueness constraints. The current implementation fires an AFTER ROW trigger for each tuple that looks like it might be non-unique according to the index contents at the time of insertion. This works well as long as there aren't many conflicts, but won't scale to massive unique-key reassignments. Improving that case is a TODO item. Dean Rasheed

ALTER TABLE rewrite. New cool stuff: * 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.

Cleanup of code for creating index entries. Functional indexes with pass-by-ref data types --- eg, an index on lower(textfield) --- no longer leak memory during index creation or update. Clean up a lot of redundant code ... did you know that copy, vacuum, truncate, reindex, extend index, and bootstrap each basically duplicated the main executor's logic for extracting information about an index and preparing index entries? Functional indexes should be a little faster now too, due to removal of repeated function lookups. CREATE INDEX 'opt_type' clause is deimplemented by these changes, but I haven't removed it from the parser yet (need to merge with Thomas' latest change set first).

extern void FormIndexDatum(IndexInfo *indexInfo,
Revise TupleTableSlot code to avoid unnecessary construction and disassembly of tuples when passing data up through multiple plan nodes. A slot can now hold either a normal "physical" HeapTuple, or a "virtual" tuple consisting of Datum/isnull arrays. Upper plan levels can usually just copy the Datum arrays, avoiding heap_formtuple() and possible subsequent nocachegetattr() calls to extract the data again. This work extends Atsushi Ogawa's earlier patch, which provided the key idea of adding Datum arrays to TupleTableSlots. (I believe however that something like this was foreseen way back in Berkeley days --- see the old comment on ExecProject.) A test case involving many levels of join of fairly wide tables (about 80 columns altogether) showed about 3x overall speedup, though simple queries will probably not be helped very much. I have also duplicated some code in heaptuple.c in order to provide versions of heap_formtuple and friends that use "bool" arrays to indicate null attributes, instead of the old convention of "char" arrays containing either 'n' or ' '. This provides a better match to the convention used by ExecEvalExpr. While I have not made a concerted effort to get rid of uses of the old routines, I think they should be deprecated and eventually removed.

Convert index-related tuple handling routines from char 'n'/' ' to bool convention for isnull flags. Also, remove the useless InsertIndexResult return struct from index AM aminsert calls --- there is no reason for the caller to know where in the index the tuple was inserted, and we were wasting a palloc cycle per insert to deliver this uninteresting value (plus nontrivial complexity in some AMs). I forced initdb because of the change in the signature of the aminsert routines, even though nothing really looks at those pg_proc entries...

IndexInfo *indexInfo,
Avoid changing an index's indcheckxmin horizon during REINDEX. There can never be a need to push the indcheckxmin horizon forward, since any HOT chains that are actually broken with respect to the index must pre-date its original creation. So we can just avoid changing pg_index altogether during a REINDEX operation. This offers a cleaner solution than my previous patch for the problem found a few days ago that we mustn't try to update pg_index while we are reindexing it. System catalog indexes will always be created with indcheckxmin = false during initdb, and with this modified code we should never try to change their pg_index entries. This avoids special-casing system catalogs as the former patch did, and should provide a performance benefit for many cases where REINDEX formerly caused an index to be considered unusable for a short time. Back-patch to 8.3 to cover all versions containing HOT. Note that this patch changes the API for index_build(), but I believe it is unlikely that any add-on code is calling that directly.

Commit of a *MAJOR* patch from Dan McGuirk <djm@indirect.com> Changes: * Unique index capability works using the syntax 'create unique index'. * Duplicate OID's in the system tables are removed. I put little scripts called 'duplicate_oids' and 'find_oid' in include/catalog that help to find and remove duplicate OID's. I also moved 'unused_oids' from backend/catalog to include/catalog, since it has to be in the same directory as the include files in order to work. * The backend tries converting the name of a function or aggregate to all lowercase if the original name given doesn't work (mostly for compatibility with ODBC). * You can 'SELECT NULL' to your heart's content. * I put my _bt_updateitem fix in instead, which uses _bt_insertonpg so that even if the new key is so big that the page has to be split, everything still works. * All literal references to system catalog OID's have been replaced with references to define'd constants from the catalog header files. * I added a couple of node copy functions. I think this was a preliminary attempt to get rules to work.

extern void validate_index(Oid heapId, Oid indexId, Snapshot snapshot);
Work around deadlock problems with VACUUM FULL/CLUSTER on system catalogs, as per my recent proposal. First, teach IndexBuildHeapScan to not wait for INSERT_IN_PROGRESS or DELETE_IN_PROGRESS tuples to commit unless the index build is checking uniqueness/exclusion constraints. If it isn't, there's no harm in just indexing the in-doubt tuple. Second, modify VACUUM FULL/CLUSTER to suppress reverifying uniqueness/exclusion constraint properties while rebuilding indexes of the target relation. This is reasonable because these commands aren't meant to deal with corrupted-data situations. Constraint properties will still be rechecked when an index is rebuilt by a REINDEX command. This gets us out of the problem that new-style VACUUM FULL would often wait for other transactions while holding exclusive lock on a system catalog, leading to probable deadlock because those other transactions need to look at the catalogs too. Although the real ultimate cause of the problem is a debatable choice to release locks early after modifying system catalogs, changing that choice would require pretty serious analysis and is not something to be undertaken lightly or on a tight schedule. The present patch fixes the problem in a fairly reasonable way and should also improve the speed of VACUUM FULL/CLUSTER a little bit.

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.

Improve table locking behavior in the face of current DDL. In the previous coding, callers were faced with an awkward choice: look up the name, do permissions checks, and then lock the table; or look up the name, lock the table, and then do permissions checks. The first choice was wrong because the results of the name lookup and permissions checks might be out-of-date by the time the table lock was acquired, while the second allowed a user with no privileges to interfere with access to a table by users who do have privileges (e.g. if a malicious backend queues up for an AccessExclusiveLock on a table on which AccessShareLock is already held, further attempts to access the table will be blocked until the AccessExclusiveLock is obtained and the malicious backend's transaction rolls back). To fix, allow callers of RangeVarGetRelid() to pass a callback which gets executed after performing the name lookup but before acquiring the relation lock. If the name lookup is retried (because invalidation messages are received), the callback will be re-executed as well, so we get the best of both worlds. RangeVarGetRelid() is renamed to RangeVarGetRelidExtended(); callers not wishing to supply a callback can continue to invoke it as RangeVarGetRelid(), which is now a macro. Since the only one caller that uses nowait = true now passes a callback anyway, the RangeVarGetRelid() macro defaults nowait as well. The callback can also be used for supplemental locking - for example, REINDEX INDEX needs to acquire the table lock before the index lock to reduce deadlock possibilities. There's a lot more work to be done here to fix all the cases where this can be a problem, but this commit provides the general infrastructure and fixes the following specific cases: REINDEX INDEX, REINDEX TABLE, LOCK TABLE, and and DROP TABLE/INDEX/SEQUENCE/VIEW/FOREIGN TABLE. Per discussion with Noah Misch and Alvaro Herrera.
