Although the key-combining code claimed to work correctly if its input
contained both lossy and exact pointers for a single page in a single TID
stream, in fact this did not work, and could not work without pretty
fundamental redesign. Modify keyGetItem so that it will not return such a
stream, by handling lossy-pointer cases a bit more explicitly than we did
before.
Per followup investigation of a gripe from Artur Dabrowski.
An example of a query that failed given his data set is
select count(*) from search_tab where
(to_tsvector('german', keywords ) @@ to_tsquery('german', 'ee:* | dd:*')) and
(to_tsvector('german', keywords ) @@ to_tsquery('german', 'aa:*'));
Back-patch to 8.4 where the lossy pointer code was introduced.

struct representing a tree entry, rather than being a separately allocated
piece of storage. This API is at least as clean as the old one (if not
more so --- there were some bizarre choices in there) and it permits a
very substantial memory savings, on the order of 2X in ginbulk.c's usage.
Also, fix minor memory leaks in code called by ginEntryInsert, in
particular in ginInsertValue and entryFillRoot, as well as ginEntryInsert
itself. These leaks resulted in the GIN index build context continuing
to bloat even after we'd filled it to maintenance_work_mem and started
to dump data out to the index.
In combination these fixes restore the GIN index build code to honoring
the maintenance_work_mem limit about as well as it did in 8.4. Speed
seems on par with 8.4 too, maybe even a bit faster, for a non-pathological
case in which HEAD was formerly slower.
Back-patch to 9.0 so we don't have a performance regression from 8.4.

routines to make them behave better in the presence of "lossy" index pointers.
The previous coding was outright incorrect for some cases, as recently
reported by Artur Dabrowski: scanGetItem would fail to return index entries in
cases where one index key had multiple exact pointers on the same page as
another key had a lossy pointer. Also, keyGetItem was extremely inefficient
for cases where a single index key generates multiple "entry" streams, such as
an @@ operator with a multiple-clause tsquery. The presence of a lossy page
pointer in any one stream defeated its ability to use the opclass
consistentFn, resulting in probing many heap pages that didn't really need to
be visited. In Artur's example case, a query like
WHERE tsvector @@ to_tsquery('a & b')
was about 50X slower than the theoretically equivalent
WHERE tsvector @@ to_tsquery('a') AND tsvector @@ to_tsquery('b')
The way that I chose to fix this was to have GIN call the consistentFn
twice with both TRUE and FALSE values for the in-doubt entry stream,
returning a hit if either call produces TRUE, but not if they both return
FALSE. The code handles this for the case of a single in-doubt entry stream,
but punts (falling back to the stupid behavior) if there's more than one lossy
reference to the same page. The idea could be scaled up to deal with multiple
lossy references, but I think that would probably be wasted complexity. At
least to judge by Artur's example, such cases don't occur often enough to be
worth trying to optimize.
Back-patch to 8.4. 8.3 did not have lossy GIN index pointers, so not
subject to these problems.

VACUUM FULL INPLACE), along with a boatload of subsidiary code and complexity.
Per discussion, the use case for this method of vacuuming is no longer large
enough to justify maintaining it; not to mention that we don't wish to invest
the work that would be needed to make it play nicely with Hot Standby.
Aside from the code directly related to old-style VACUUM FULL, this commit
removes support for certain WAL record types that could only be generated
within VACUUM FULL, redirect-pointer removal in heap_page_prune, and
nontransactional generation of cache invalidation sinval messages (the last
being the sticking point for Hot Standby).
We still have to retain all code that copes with finding HEAP_MOVED_OFF and
HEAP_MOVED_IN flag bits on existing tuples. This can't be removed as long
as we want to support in-place update from pre-9.0 databases.

Enabled by recovery_connections = on (default) and forcing archive recovery using a recovery.conf. Recovery processing now emulates the original transactions as they are replayed, providing full locking and MVCC behaviour for read only queries. Recovery must enter consistent state before connections are allowed, so there is a delay, typically short, before connections succeed. Replay of recovering transactions can conflict and in some cases deadlock with queries during recovery; these result in query cancellation after max_standby_delay seconds have expired. Infrastructure changes have minor effects on normal running, though introduce four new types of WAL record.
New test mode "make standbycheck" allows regression tests of static command behaviour on a standby server while in recovery. Typical and extreme dynamic behaviours have been checked via code inspection and manual testing. Few port specific behaviours have been utilised, though primary testing has been on Linux only so far.
This commit is the basic patch. Additional changes will follow in this release to enhance some aspects of behaviour, notably improved handling of conflicts, deadlock detection and query cancellation. Changes to VACUUM FULL are also required.

tuple size limit. Improve the error message for index-tuple-too-large
so that it includes the actual size, the limit, and the index name.
Sync with the btree occurrences of the same error.
Back-patch to 8.4 because it appears that the out-of-sync problem
is occurring in the field.

In practice these mistakes were always masked when full_page_writes was on,
because XLogInsert would always choose to log the full page, and then
ginRedoInsertListPage wouldn't try to do anything. But with full_page_writes
off a WAL replay failure was certain.
The GIN_INSERT_LISTPAGE record type could probably be eliminated entirely
in favor of using XLOG_HEAP_NEWPAGE, but I refrained from doing that now
since it would have required a significantly more invasive patch.
In passing do a little bit of code cleanup, including making the accounting
for free space on GIN list pages more precise. (This wasn't a bug as the
errors were always in the conservative direction.)
Per report from Simon. Back-patch to 8.4 which contains the identical code.

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.

behavior in cases where we don't know the heap tuple count accurately; in
particular partial vacuum, but this also makes the API a bit more useful
for ANALYZE. This patch adds "estimated_count" flags to both structs so
that an approximate count can be flagged as such, and adjusts the logic
so that approximate counts are not used for updating pg_class.reltuples.
This fixes my previous complaint that VACUUM was putting ridiculous values
into pg_class.reltuples for indexes. The actual impact of that bug is
limited, because the planner only pays attention to reltuples for an index
if the index is partial; which probably explains why beta testers hadn't
noticed a degradation in plan quality from it. But it needs to be fixed.
The whole thing is a bit messy and should be redesigned in future, because
reltuples now has the potential to drift quite far away from reality when
a long period elapses with no non-partial vacuums. But this is as good as
it's going to get for 8.4.

is supposed to remove duplicate heap TIDs, we have to be sure to reduce the
tuple size and posting-item count accordingly in addItemPointersToTuple().
Failing to do so resulted in the effective injection of garbage TIDs into the
index contents, ie, whatever happened to be in the memory palloc'd for the
new tuple. I'm not sure that this fully explains the index corruption
reported by Tatsuo Ishii, but the test case I'm using no longer fails.

method to pass extra data to the consistent() and comparePartial() methods.
This is the core infrastructure needed to support the soon-to-appear
contrib/btree_gin module. The APIs are still upward compatible with the
definitions used in 8.3 and before, although *not* with the previous 8.4devel
function definitions.
catversion bump for changes in pg_proc entries (although these are just
cosmetic, since GIN doesn't actually look at the function signature before
calling it...)

them from degrading badly when the input is sorted or nearly so. In this
scenario the tree is unbalanced to the point of becoming a mere linked list,
so insertions become O(N^2). The easiest and most safely back-patchable
solution is to stop growing the tree sooner, ie limit the growth of N. We
might later consider a rebalancing tree algorithm, but it's not clear that
the benefit would be worth the cost and complexity. Per report from Sergey
Burladyan and an earlier complaint from Heikki.
Back-patch to 8.2; older versions didn't have GIN indexes.

multiple index entries in a holding area before adding them to the main index
structure. This helps because bulk insert is (usually) significantly faster
than retail insert for GIN.
This patch also removes GIN support for amgettuple-style index scans. The
API defined for amgettuple is difficult to support with fastupdate, and
the previously committed partial-match feature didn't really work with
it either. We might eventually figure a way to put back amgettuple
support, but it won't happen for 8.4.
catversion bumped because of change in GIN's pg_am entry, and because
the format of GIN indexes changed on-disk (there's a metapage now,
and possibly a pending list).

be used instead of the normal exclusive lock, and make WAL redo functions
responsible for calling RestoreBkpBlocks(). They know better what kind of a
lock they need.
At the moment, this just moves things around with no functional change, but
makes the hot standby patch that's under review cleaner.

truncations in FSM code, call FreeSpaceMapTruncateRel from smgr_redo. To
make that cleaner from modularity point of view, move the WAL-logging one
level up to RelationTruncate, and move RelationTruncate and all the
related WAL-logging to new src/backend/catalog/storage.c file. Introduce
new RelationCreateStorage and RelationDropStorage functions that are used
instead of calling smgrcreate/smgrscheduleunlink directly. Move the
pending rel deletion stuff from smgrcreate/smgrscheduleunlink to the new
functions. This leaves smgr.c as a thin wrapper around md.c; all the
transactional stuff is now in storage.c.
This will make it easier to add new forks with similar truncation logic,
like the visibility map.

for inserting tuples in increasing TID order. It's not clear whether this
fully explains Ivan Sergio Borgonovo's complaint, but simple testing
confirms that a scan that doesn't start at block 0 can slow GIN build by
a factor of three or four.
Backpatch to 8.3. Sync scan didn't exist before that.

functions into one ReadBufferExtended function, that takes the strategy
and mode as argument. There's three modes, RBM_NORMAL which is the default
used by plain ReadBuffer(), RBM_ZERO, which replaces ZeroOrReadBuffer, and
a new mode RBM_ZERO_ON_ERROR, which allows callers to read corrupt pages
without throwing an error. The FSM needs the new mode to recover from
corrupt pages, which could happend if we crash after extending an FSM file,
and the new page is "torn".
Add fork number to some error messages in bufmgr.c, that still lacked it.

free space information is stored in a dedicated FSM relation fork, with each
relation (except for hash indexes; they don't use FSM).
This eliminates the max_fsm_relations and max_fsm_pages GUC options; remove any
trace of them from the backend, initdb, and documentation.
Rewrite contrib/pg_freespacemap to match the new FSM implementation. Also
introduce a new variant of the get_raw_page(regclass, int4, int4) function in
contrib/pageinspect that let's you to return pages from any relation fork, and
a new fsm_page_contents() function to inspect the new FSM pages.

corresponding struct definitions. This allows other headers to avoid including
certain highly-loaded headers such as rel.h and relscan.h, instead using just
relcache.h, heapam.h or genam.h, which are more lightweight and thus cause less
unnecessary dependencies.

forks. XLogOpenRelation() and the associated light-weight relation cache in
xlogutils.c is gone, and XLogReadBuffer() now takes a RelFileNode as argument,
instead of Relation.
For functions that still need a Relation struct during WAL replay, there's a
new function called CreateFakeRelcacheEntry() that returns a fake entry like
XLogOpenRelation() used to.

more logical that way, and also it reduces the amount of unnecessary includes

unnecessary #include lines in it. Also, move some tuple routine prototypes and
macros to htup.h, which allows removal of heapam.h inclusion from some .c
files.
For this to work, a new header file access/sysattr.h needed to be created,
initially containing attribute numbers of system columns, for pg_dump usage.
While at it, make contrib ltree, intarray and hstore header files more
consistent with our header style.

It was my mistake, I missed limitation of number of held locks, now GIN doesn't
use continiuous locks, but still hold buffers pinned to prevent interference
with vacuum's deletion algorithm.

"consistent" functions, and remove pg_amop.opreqcheck, as per recent
discussion. The main immediate benefit of this is that we no longer need
8.3's ugly hack of requiring @@@ rather than @@ to test weight-using tsquery
searches on GIN indexes. In future it should be possible to optimize some
other queries better than is done now, by detecting at runtime whether the
index match is exact or not.
Tom Lane, after an idea of Heikki's, and with some help from Teodor.

instead of plan time. Extend the amgettuple API so that the index AM returns
a boolean indicating whether the indexquals need to be rechecked, and make
that rechecking happen in nodeIndexscan.c (currently the only place where
it's expected to be needed; other callers of index_getnext are just erroring
out for now). For the moment, GIN and GIST have stub logic that just always
sets the recheck flag to TRUE --- I'm hoping to get Teodor to handle pushing
that control down to the opclass consistent() functions. The planner no
longer pays any attention to amopreqcheck, and that catalog column will go
away in due course.
|

indexscan always occurs in one call, and the results are returned in a
TIDBitmap instead of a limited-size array of TIDs. This should improve
speed a little by reducing AM entry/exit overhead, and it is necessary
infrastructure if we are ever to support bitmap indexes.
In an only slightly related change, add support for TIDBitmaps to preserve
(somewhat lossily) the knowledge that particular TIDs reported by an index
need to have their quals rechecked when the heap is visited. This facility
is not really used yet; we'll need to extend the forced-recheck feature to
plain indexscans before it's useful, and that hasn't been coded yet.
The intent is to use it to clean up 8.3's horrid @@@ kluge for text search
with weighted queries. There might be other uses in future, but that one
alone is sufficient reason.
Heikki Linnakangas, with some adjustments by me.
