2004-08-30Fix obviously-utterly-untested noTocComments code.Tom Lane
2004-08-30Ensure that the remainder of the current pg_clog page is zeroed duringTom Lane
startup, just to be sure that there's no leftover junk there.
2004-08-30Fix failure to advance nextXID beyond subtransactions whose XIDs appearTom Lane
only within COMMIT or ABORT records.
2004-08-30Tweak md.c logic to cope with the situation where WAL replay tries toTom Lane
write into a high-numbered segment of a relation that was later deleted. We need to temporarily recreate missing segment files, instead of failing.
2004-08-30Dept. of second thoughts: it'd be a good idea to flush buffersTom Lane
during replay of CREATE DATABASE as well as the first time around. Else it's possible that the copy operation will copy obsolete blocks. We are still a long way from guaranteeing anything about using a recently-written database as a CREATE template, but this seems needed to ensure the existing behavior holds up during replay.
2004-08-30Another pgindent run with lib typedefs added.Bruce Momjian
2004-08-29Add WAL logging for CREATE/DROP DATABASE and CREATE/DROP TABLESPACE.Tom Lane
Fix TablespaceCreateDbspace() to be able to create a dummy directory in place of a dropped tablespace's symlink. This eliminates the open problem of a PANIC during WAL replay when a replayed action attempts to touch a file in a since-deleted tablespace. It also makes for a significant improvement in the usability of PITR replay.
2004-08-29Update typedefs with /lib info.Bruce Momjian
2004-08-29Widen xl_len field of XLogRecord header to 32 bits, so that we'll haveTom Lane
a more tolerable limit on the number of subtransactions or deleted files in COMMIT and ABORT records. Buy back the extra space by eliminating the xl_xact_prev field, which isn't being used for anything and is rather unlikely ever to be used for anything. This does not force initdb, but you do need to do pg_resetxlog if you want to upgrade an existing 8.0 installation without initdb.

2004-08-29Fix for postmaster.c function win32_waitpid(int *exitstatus) call toBruce Momjian
Win32 WaitForMultipleObjects: ret = WaitForMultipleObjects(win32_numChildren, win32_childHNDArray, FALSE, 0); Problem is 'win32_numChildren' could be more then 64 ( function supports ), problem basically arise ( kills postgres ) when you create more then 64 connections and terminate some of them sill leaving more then 64.

2004-08-28The attached patch improves pg_ctl's win32 service code to eliminateBruce Momjian
some possible causes of the stale postmaster.pid problem that some users have reported. - The service did not properly report that it accepts SERVICE_CONTROL_SHUTDOWN events, thus it's possible the SCM simply killed the postmaster on shutdown. - 'WaitHints' are now given to the SCM to prevent it timing out if pg_ctl doesn't respond to a control event quickly enough. - During shutdown, the service checkpoint counter is incremented every five seconds for up to a minute to prevent the SCM timing out and assuming the service is not responding.

Please find attached a small patch against current CVS head that fixes pgport library installation so that it goes to libdir instead of pkglibdir. It works for me. Fabien Coelho

2004-08-28Now that TransactionIdDidAbort doesn't think it should try to modifyTom Lane
pg_clog, there's no reason to do abort marking of subtransactions in a nonintuitive order.

2004-08-28Add missing Assert to make TransactionIdDidAbort more consistent withTom Lane
TransactionIdDidCommit.
2004-08-28Rearrange order of operations in heap_drop_with_catalog and index_dropTom Lane
so that we close and flush the doomed relation's relcache entry before we start to delete the underlying catalog rows, rather than afterwards. For awhile yesterday I thought that an unexpected relcache entry rebuild partway through this sequence might explain the infrequent parallel regression failures we were chasing. It doesn't, mainly because there's no CommandCounterIncrement in the sequence and so the deletions aren't "really" done yet. But it sure seems like trouble waiting to happen.

2004-08-28Fix relcache to account properly for subtransaction status of 'new'Tom Lane
relcache entries. Also, change TransactionIdIsCurrentTransactionId() so that if consulted during transaction abort, it will not say that the aborted xact is still current. (It would be better to ensure that it's never called at all during abort, but I'm not sure we can easily guarantee that.) In combination, these fix a crash we have seen occasionally during parallel regression tests of 8.0.
2004-08-28Further tightening of the array literal parser. Prevent junkJoe Conway
from being accepted after the outer right brace. Per report from Markus Bertheau. Also add regression test cases for this change, and for previous recent array literal parser changes.
2004-08-28Can't truncate pg_subtrans during a recovery checkpoint --- subtransTom Lane
module isn't fully initialized yet.
2004-08-28Add missing semicolon; some bison versions warn of this.Tom Lane
2004-08-27Fix Windows emulation of kill(pid, 0). This will now succeed, but onlyTom Lane
if the target PID is a PG postmaster or backend --- for our purposes that is actually better than the Unix behavior. Per Dave Page and Andrew Dunstan.
2004-08-27Introduce local hash table for lock state, as per recent proposal.Tom Lane
PROCLOCK structs in shared memory now have only a bitmask for held locks, rather than counts (making them 40 bytes smaller, which is a good thing). Multiple locks within a transaction are counted in the local hash table instead, and we have provision for tracking which ResourceOwner each count belongs to. Solves recently reported problem with memory leakage within long transactions.
2004-08-26Fix user locks. Broken some time ago for all platforms by Windows-relatedTom Lane
changes.

2004-08-25Fix typo in comment, per Andrew Dunstan.Tom Lane
2004-08-25Revise ResourceOwner code to avoid accumulating ResourceOwner objectsTom Lane
for every command executed within a transaction. For long transactions this was a significant memory leak. Instead, we can delete a portal's or subtransaction's ResourceOwner immediately, if we physically transfer the information about its locks up to the parent owner. This does not fully solve the leak problem; we need to do something about counting multiple acquisitions of the same lock in order to fix it. But it's a necessary step along the way.

2004-08-24Allow second and subsequent names in a qualified (dotted) name to beTom Lane
ColLabel instead of just ColId --- that is, any keyword can appear after a dot and it will be taken as an identifier. Fixes problems with names that are okay as standalone function names but fail when qualified.
2004-08-23Rearrange pg_subtrans handling as per recent discussion. pg_subtransTom Lane
updates are no longer WAL-logged nor even fsync'd; we do not need to, since after a crash no old pg_subtrans data is needed again. We truncate pg_subtrans to RecentGlobalXmin at each checkpoint. slru.c's API is refactored a little bit to separate out the necessary decisions.
2004-08-22Tweak code so that pg_subtrans is never consulted for XIDs older thanTom Lane
RecentXmin (== MyProc->xmin). This ensures that it will be safe to truncate pg_subtrans at RecentGlobalXmin, which should largely eliminate any fear of bloat. Along the way, eliminate SubTransXidsHaveCommonAncestor, which isn't really needed and could not give a trustworthy result anyway under the lookback restriction. In an unrelated but nearby change, #ifdef out GetUndoRecPtr, which has been dead code since 2001 and seems unlikely to ever be resurrected.
