The logical decoding patchset introduced PROC_IN_LOGICAL_DECODING flag
PGXACT flag, that allows such backends to be skipped when computing
the xmin horizon/snapshots. That's fine and sensible for walsenders
streaming out logical changes, but not at all fine for SQL backends
doing logical decoding. If the latter set that flag any change they
have performed outside of logical decoding will not be regarded as
visible - which e.g. can lead to that change being vacuumed away.
Note that not setting the flag for SQL backends isn't particularly
bothersome - the SQL backend doesn't do streaming, so it only runs for
a limited amount of time.
Per buildfarm member 'tick' and Alvaro.
Backpatch to 9.4, where logical decoding was introduced.

There are basically three situations in which logical decoding needs
to perform cache invalidation. During/After replaying a transaction
with catalog changes, when skipping a uninteresting transaction that
performed catalog changes and when erroring out while replaying a
transaction. Unfortunately these three cases were all done slightly
differently - partially because 8de3e410fa, which greatly simplifies
matters, got committed in the midst of the development of logical
decoding.
The actually problematic case was when logical decoding skipped
transaction commits (and thus processed invalidations). When used via
the SQL interface cache invalidation could access the catalog - bad,
because we didn't set up enough state to allow that correctly. It'd
not be hard to setup sufficient state, but the simpler solution is to
always perform cache invalidation outside a valid transaction.
Also make the different cache invalidation cases look as similar as
possible, to ease code review.
This fixes the assertion failure reported by Antonin Houska in
53EE02D9.7040702@gmail.com. The presented testcase has been expanded
into a regression test.

Heikki noticed in 544E23C0.8090605@vmware.com that slot.c and
snapbuild.c were missing the FIN_CRC32 call when computing/checking
checksums of on disk files. That doesn't lower the the error detection
capabilities of the checksum, but is inconsistent with other usages.
In a followup mail Heikki also noticed that, contrary to a comment,
the 'version' and 'length' struct fields of replication slot's on disk
data where not covered by the checksum. That's not likely to lead to
actually missed corruption as those fields are cross checked with the
expected version and the actual file length. But it's wrong
nonetheless.
As fixing these issues makes existing on disk files unreadable, bump
the expected versions of on disk files for both slots and logical
decoding historic catalog snapshots. This means that loading old
files will fail with
ERROR: "replication slot file ... has unsupported version 1"
and
ERROR: "snapbuild state file ... has unsupported version 1 instead of
2" respectively. Given the low likelihood of anybody already using
these new features in a production setup that seems acceptable.
Fixing these issues made me notice that there's no regression test
covering the loading of historic snapshot from disk - so add one.
Backpatch to 9.4 where these features were introduced.

Also improve related error message as it contributed to the confusion.

The regression tests for contrib/test_decoding regularly failed on
postgres instances that were very slow. Either because the hardware
itself was slow or because very expensive debugging options like
CLOBBER_CACHE_ALWAYS were used.
The reason they failed was just that some additional transactions were
decoded. Analyze and vacuum, triggered by autovac.
To fix just add a option to test_decoding to only display transactions
in which a change was actually displayed. That's not pretty because it
removes information from the tests; but better than constantly failing
tests in very likely harmless ways.

Prominent binaries already had this metadata. A handful of minor
binaries, such as pg_regress.exe, still lack it; efforts to eliminate
such exceptions are welcome.

Commit 1b86c81d2d fixed the decoding of toasted columns for the rows
contained in one xl_heap_multi_insert record. But that's not actually
enough, because heap_multi_insert() will actually first toast all
passed in rows and then emit several *_multi_insert records; one for
each page it fills with tuples.
Add a XLOG_HEAP_LAST_MULTI_INSERT flag which is set in
xl_heap_multi_insert->flag denoting that this multi_insert record is
the last emitted by one heap_multi_insert() call. Then use that flag
in decode.c to only set clear_toast_afterwards in the right situation.
Expand the number of rows inserted via COPY in the corresponding
regression test to make sure that more than one heap page is filled
with tuples by one heap_multi_insert() call.
Backpatch to 9.4 like the previous commit.

Report by Robert Haas
|
|
When decoding the results of a HEAP2_MULTI_INSERT (currently only
generated by COPY FROM) toast columns for all but the last tuple
weren't replaced by their actual contents before being handed to the
output plugin. The reassembled toast datums where disregarded after
every REORDER_BUFFER_CHANGE_(INSERT|UPDATE|DELETE) which is correct
for plain inserts, updates, deletes, but not multi inserts - there we
generate several REORDER_BUFFER_CHANGE_INSERTs for a single
xl_heap_multi_insert record.
To solve the problem add a clear_toast_afterwards boolean to
ReorderBufferChange's union member that's used by modifications. All
row changes but multi_inserts always set that to true, but
multi_insert sets it only for the last change generated.
Add a regression test covering decoding of multi_inserts - there was
none at all before.
Backpatch to 9.4 where logical decoding was introduced.
Bug found by Petr Jelinek.

pg_stat_replication shows connected replication clients. The ddl test case
never has any replication clients connected, so querying pg_stat_replication
is pointless. To check that a slot has been dropped correctly, query
pg_replication_slots instead.

This includes removing tabs after periods in C comments, which was
applied to back branches, so this change should not effect backpatching.

Commit 7317d8d961f210c3a6b20972cd605bcd9bffb06e changed the set of
things that need to be ignored, but neglected to update .gitignore.

contrib/test_decoding's "make check" runs two sets of tests. Unless we
specify separate output directories for each set the isolation tests
will overwrite the output from the normal regression set. Doing this
will help the buildfarm collect complete logs.

INDEX is already displayed on the index, and we now exclude pg_catalog.
DEFAULT is not displayed.

In b89e151054a I had assumed it was ok to use anonymous unions as
struct members, but while a longstanding extension in many compilers,
it's only been standardized in C11.
To fix, remove one of the anonymous unions which tried to hide some
implementation specific enum values and give the other a name. The
latter unfortunately requires changes in output plugins, but since the
feature has only been added a few days ago...

Commit 6f37c08057685ee3c6c63222dba0dac012760dde removed whitespace
from the SQL file but not the expected-output file, and commit
7e8db2dc420099df3fa73987cf2d2d6d1a609d86 changed the error message
without updating the expected outputs.

This feature, building on previous commits, allows the write-ahead log
stream to be decoded into a series of logical changes; that is,
inserts, updates, and deletes and the transactions which contain them.
It is capable of handling decoding even across changes to the schema
of the effected tables. The output format is controlled by a
so-called "output plugin"; an example is included. To make use of
this in a real replication system, the output plugin will need to be
modified to produce output in the format appropriate to that system,
and to perform filtering.
Currently, information can be extracted from the logical decoding
system only via SQL; future commits will add the ability to stream
changes via walsender.
