and new root page if old root one was splitted but new root page
wasn't created.
New code is protected by FixBTree bool flag setted to FALSE, so
nothing should be affected by this untested approach.
are now critical sections, so as to ensure die() won't interrupt us while
we are munging shared-memory data structures. Avoid insecure intermediate
states in some code that proc_exit will call, like palloc/pfree. Rename
START/END_CRIT_CODE to START/END_CRIT_SECTION, since that seems to be
what people tend to call them anyway, and make them be called with () like
a function call, in hopes of not confusing pg_indent.
I doubt that this is sufficient to make SIGTERM safe anywhere; there's
just too much code that could get invoked during proc_exit().
included by everything that includes bufmgr.h --- it's supposed to be
internals, after all, not part of the API! This fixes the conflict
against FreeBSD headers reported by Rosenman, by making it unnecessary
for s_lock.h to be included by plperl.c.
duplicate keys by letting search go to the left rather than right when an
equal key is seen at an upper tree level. Fix poor choice of page split
point (leading to insertion failures) that was forced by chaining logic.
Don't store leftmost key in non-leaf pages, since it's not necessary.
Don't create root page until something is first stored in the index, so an
unused index is now 8K not 16K. (Doesn't seem to be as easy to get rid of
the metadata page, unfortunately.) Massive cleanup of unreadable code,
fix poor, obsolete, and just plain wrong documentation and comments.
See src/backend/access/nbtree/README for the gory details.
Also, move responsibility for calling vc_abort into main xact.c list of
things-to-call-at-abort. What in the world was it doing down inside of
TransactionIdAbort()?
2. Much faster btree tuples deletion in the case when first on page
index tuple is deleted (no movement to the left page(s)).
3. Remember blkno of new root page in BTPageOpaque of
left/right siblings when root page is splitted.
index tuple (logical position within A LEVEL). bti_oid & bti_dummy
taken off from BTItemData.
2. Fix for multi-column indices (nbtsearch.c):
_bt_binsrch() - for searches on internal pages having keysize <
number of attrs we point at the last item < the scankey, not at the
first item = the scankey;
_bt_moveright() - if keysize < number of attrs we compare scankey with
_last_ item on current page to decide should we move right or
not.
