* new split algorithm (as proposed in http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2006-06/msg00254.php)
* possible call pickSplit() for second and below columns
* add spl_(l|r)datum_exists to GIST_SPLITVEC -
pickSplit should check its values to use already defined
spl_(l|r)datum for splitting. pickSplit should set
spl_(l|r)datum_exists to 'false' (if they was 'true') to
signal to caller about using spl_(l|r)datum.
* support for old pickSplit(): not very optimal
but correct split
* remove 'bytes' field from GISTENTRY: in any case size of
value is defined by it's type.
* split GIST_SPLITVEC to two structures: one for using in picksplit
and second - for internal use.
* some code refactoring
* support of subsplit to rtree opclasses
TODO: add support of subsplit to contrib modules
|

If user picksplit on n-th column generate equals
left and right unions then it calls picksplit on n+1-th
column.
|
|
* some refactoring and simplify code int gistutil.c and gist.c
* now in some cases it can be called used-defined
picksplit method for non-first column in index, but here
is a place to do more.
* small fix of docs related to support NULL.

WAL log during inserts.

sections now isn't nested. All user-defined functions now is
called outside critsections. Small improvements in WAL
protocol.
TODO: improve XLOG replay
|

(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.

insertion and deletion, modify gistSplit() to do not use buffers.
TODO: gistvacuumcleanup and XLOG
|
|
This formulation requires every AM to provide amvacuumcleanup, unlike before,
but it's surely a whole lot cleaner. Also, add an 'amstorage' column to
pg_am so that we can get rid of hardwired knowledge in DefineOpClass().

don't have anything to do to the page, but we still have to adjust the
incomplete_inserts list that we're maintaining in memory.

do real work. That was missed during concurrence development.

misleadingly-named WriteBuffer routine, and instead require routines that
change buffer pages to call MarkBufferDirty (which does exactly what it says).
We also require that they do so before calling XLogInsert; this takes care of
the synchronization requirement documented in SyncOneBuffer. Note that
because bufmgr takes the buffer content lock (in shared mode) while writing
out any buffer, it doesn't matter whether MarkBufferDirty is executed before
the buffer content change is complete, so long as the content change is
completed before releasing exclusive lock on the buffer. So it's OK to set
the dirtybit before we fill in the LSN.
This eliminates the former kluge of needing to set the dirtybit in LockBuffer.
Aside from making the code more transparent, we can also add some new
debugging assertions, in particular that the caller of MarkBufferDirty must
hold the buffer content lock, not merely a pin.

torn-page problems. This introduces some issues of its own, mainly
that there are now some critical sections of unreasonably broad scope,
but it's a step forward anyway. Further cleanup will require some
code refactoring that I'd prefer to get Oleg and Teodor involved in.
|

This commit doesn't make much functional change, but it does eliminate some
duplicated code --- for instance, PageIsNew tests are now done inside
XLogReadBuffer rather than by each caller.
The GIST xlog code still needs a lot of love, but I'll worry about that
separately.

when an error occurs during xlog replay. Also, replace the former risky
'write into a fixed-size buffer with no overflow detection' API for XLOG
record description routines; use an expansible StringInfo instead. (The
latter accounts for most of the patch bulk.)

partial. None of the existing AMs do anything useful except counting
tuples when there's nothing to delete, and we can get a tuple count
from the heap as long as it's not a partial index. (hash actually can
skip anyway because it maintains a tuple count in the index metapage.)
GIST is not currently able to exploit this optimization because, due to
failure to index NULLs, GIST is always effectively partial. Possibly
we should fix that sometime.

isn't being used anywhere anymore, and there seems no point in a generic
index_keytest() routine when two out of three remaining access methods
aren't using it. Also, add a comment documenting a convention for
letting access methods define private flag bits in ScanKey sk_flags.
There are no such flags at the moment but I'm thinking about changing
btree's handling of "required keys" to use flag bits in the keys
rather than a count of required key positions. Also, if some AM did
still want SK_NEGATE then it would be reasonable to treat it as a private
flag bit.

comment line where output as too long, and update typedefs for /lib
directory. Also fix case where identifiers were used as variable names
in the backend, but as typedefs in ecpg (favor the backend for
indenting).
Backpatch to 8.1.X.

that are assigned to but never used.

generated by bitmap index scans. Along the way, simplify and speed up
the code for counting sequential and index scans; it was both confusing
and inefficient to be taking care of that in the per-tuple loops, IMHO.
initdb forced because of internal changes in pg_stat view definitions.

on a page, as suggested by ITAGAKI Takahiro. Also, change a few places
that were using some other estimates of max-items-per-page to consistently
use MaxOffsetNumber. This is conservatively large --- we could have used
the new MaxHeapTuplesPerPage macro, or a similar one for index tuples ---
but those places are simply declaring a fixed-size buffer and assuming it
will work, rather than actively testing for overrun. It seems safer to
size these buffers in a way that can't overflow even if the page is
corrupt.

basic regression tests for GiST to the standard regression tests.
I took the opportunity to add an rtree-equivalent gist opclass for
circles; the contrib version only covered boxes and polygons, but
indexing circles is very handy for distance searches.

- add forgotten check of lsn for insert completion
- remove level of pages: hard to check in recovery
- some cleanups

- full concurrency for insert/update/select/vacuum:
- select and vacuum never locks more than one page simultaneously
- select (gettuple) hasn't any lock across it's calls
- insert never locks more than two page simultaneously:
- during search of leaf to insert it locks only one page
simultaneously
- while walk upward to the root it locked only parent (may be
non-direct parent) and child. One of them X-lock, another may
be S- or X-lock
- 'vacuum full' locks index
- improve gistgetmulti
- simplify XLOG records
Fix bug in index_beginscan_internal: LockRelation may clean
rd_aminfo structure, so move GET_REL_PROCEDURE after LockRelation

2. improve vacuum for gist
- use FSM
- full vacuum:
- reforms parent tuple if it's needed
( tuples was deleted on child page or parent tuple remains invalid
after crash recovery )
- truncate index file if possible
3. fixes bugs and mistakes

recovery after crash (power loss etc) it may say that it can't restore
index and index should be reindexed.
Some refactoring code.
|
|
That code is never going to be used in the foreseeable future, and
where it's more than a stub it's making the redo routines harder to
read.

external projects, we should be careful about what parts of the GiST
API are considered implementation details, and which are part of the
public API. Therefore, I've moved internal-only declarations into
gist_private.h -- future backward-incompatible changes to gist.h should
be made with care, to avoid needlessly breaking external GiST extensions.
Also did some related header cleanup: remove some unnecessary #includes
from gist.h, and remove some unused definitions: isAttByVal(), _gistdump(),
and GISTNStrategies.

- make sure we always invoke user-supplied GiST methods in a short-lived
memory context. This means the backend isn't exposed to any memory leaks
that be in those methods (in fact, it is probably a net loss for most
GiST methods to bother manually freeing memory now). This also means
we can do away with a lot of ugly manual memory management in the
GiST code itself.
- keep the current page of a GiST index scan pinned, rather than doing a
ReadBuffer() for each tuple produced by the scan. Since ReadBuffer() is
expensive, this is a perf. win
- implement dead tuple killing for GiST indexes (which is easy to do, now
that we keep a pin on the current scan page). Now all the builtin indexes
implement dead tuple killing.
- cleanup a lot of ugly code in GiST

methods: they all invoke UpdateStats() since they have computed the
number of heap tuples, so I created a function in catalog/index.c that
each AM now calls.
|
|
access: define new index access method functions 'amgetmulti' that can
fetch multiple TIDs per call. (The functions exist but are totally
untested as yet.) Since I was modifying pg_am anyway, remove the
no-longer-needed 'rel' parameter from amcostestimate functions, and
also remove the vestigial amowner column that was creating useless
work for Alvaro's shared-object-dependencies project.
Initdb forced due to changes in pg_am.
