The functions in this module allow you to inspect the contents of data pages
|
|
at a low level, for debugging purposes.
|
|
|
|
1. Installation
|
|
|
|
$ make
|
|
$ make install
|
|
$ psql -e -f /usr/local/pgsql/share/contrib/pageinspect.sql test
|
|
|
|
2. Functions included:
|
|
|
|
get_raw_page
|
|
------------
|
|
get_raw_page reads one block of the named table and returns a copy as a
|
|
bytea field. This allows a single time-consistent copy of the block to be
|
|
made. Use of this functions is restricted to superusers.
|
|
|
|
page_header
|
|
-----------
|
|
page_header shows fields which are common to all PostgreSQL heap and index
|
|
pages. Use of this function is restricted to superusers.
|
|
|
|
A page image obtained with get_raw_page should be passed as argument:
|
|
|
|
test=# SELECT * FROM page_header(get_raw_page('pg_class',0));
|
|

|
|
(1 row)
|
|
|
|
The returned columns correspond to the fields in the PageHeaderData-struct,
|
|
see src/include/storage/bufpage.h for more details.
|
|
|
|
heap_page_items
|
|
---------------
|
|
heap_page_items shows all line pointers on a heap page. For those line
|
|
pointers that are in use, tuple headers are also shown. All tuples are
|
|
shown, whether or not the tuples were visible to an MVCC snapshot at the
|
|
time the raw page was copied. Use of this function is restricted to
|
|
superusers.
|
|
|
|
A heap page image obtained with get_raw_page should be passed as argument:
|
|
|
|
test=# SELECT * FROM heap_page_items(get_raw_page('pg_class',0));
|
|
|
|
See src/include/storage/itemid.h and src/include/access/htup.h for
|
|
explanations of the fields returned.
|
|
|
|
bt_metap
|
|
--------
|
|
bt_metap() returns information about the btree index metapage:
|
|
|
|
test=> SELECT * FROM bt_metap('pg_cast_oid_index');
