2005-12-02Adjust scan plan nodes to avoid getting an extra AccessShareLock on aTom Lane
relation if it's already been locked by execMain.c as either a result relation or a FOR UPDATE/SHARE relation. This avoids an extra trip to the shared lock manager state. Per my suggestion yesterday.
2005-12-02Rearrange code in ExecInitBitmapHeapScan so that we don't initialize theTom Lane
child plan nodes until we have acquired lock on the relation to scan. The relative order of initialization of plan nodes isn't real important in other cases, but it's critical here because one is supposed to lock a relation before its indexes, not vice versa. The original coding was at least vulnerable to deadlock against DROP INDEX, and perhaps worse things.
2005-11-26Change seqscan logic so that we check visibility of all tuples on a pageTom Lane
when we first read the page, rather than checking them one at a time. This allows us to take and release the buffer content lock just once per page, instead of once per tuple. Since it's a shared lock the contention penalty for holding the lock longer shouldn't be too bad. We can safely do this only when using an MVCC snapshot; else the assumption that visibility won't change over time is uncool. Therefore there are now two code paths depending on the snapshot type. I also made the same change in nodeBitmapHeapscan.c, where it can be done always because we only support MVCC snapshots for bitmap scans anyway. Also make some incidental cleanups in the APIs of these functions. Per a suggestion from Qingqing Zhou.
2005-11-25Improve ExecStoreTuple to be smarter about replacing the contents ofTom Lane
a TupleTableSlot: instead of calling ExecClearTuple, inline the needed operations, so that we can avoid redundant steps. In particular, when the old and new tuples are both on the same disk page, avoid releasing and re-acquiring the buffer pin --- this saves work in both the bufmgr and ResourceOwner modules. To make this improvement actually useful, partially revert a change I made on 2004-04-21 that caused SeqNext et al to call ExecClearTuple before ExecStoreTuple. The motivation for that, to avoid grabbing the BufMgrLock separately for releasing the old buffer and grabbing the new one, no longer applies. My profiling says that this saves about 5% of the CPU time for an all-in-memory seqscan.
2005-10-15Standard pgindent run for 8.1.Bruce Momjian
2005-10-06Revise pgstats stuff to fix the problems with not counting accessesTom Lane
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.
2005-05-06For some reason access/tupmacs.h has been #including utils/memutils.h,Tom Lane
which is neither needed by nor related to that header. Remove the bogus inclusion and instead include the header in those C files that actually need it. Also fix unnecessary inclusions and bad inclusion order in tsearch2 files.
2005-04-19Create executor and planner-backend support for decoupled heap and indexTom Lane
scans, using in-memory tuple ID bitmaps as the intermediary. The planner frontend (path creation and cost estimation) is not there yet, so none of this code can be executed. I have tested it using some hacked planner code that is far too ugly to see the light of day, however. Committing now so that the bulk of the infrastructure changes go in before the tree drifts under me.
