After calling smgropen(), it was not clear how long you could continue
to use the result, because various code paths including cache
invalidation could call smgrclose(), which freed the memory.
Guarantee that the object won't be destroyed until the end of the
current transaction, or in recovery, the commit/abort record that
destroys the underlying storage.
smgrclose() is now just an alias for smgrrelease(). It closes files
and forgets all state except the rlocator, but keeps the SMgrRelation
object valid.
A new smgrdestroy() function is used by rare places that know there
should be no other references to the SMgrRelation.
The short version:
* smgrclose() is now just an alias for smgrrelease(). It releases
resources, but doesn't destroy until EOX
* smgrdestroy() now frees memory, and should rarely be used.
Existing code should be unaffected, but it is now possible for code that
has an SMgrRelation object to use it repeatedly during a transaction as
long as the storage hasn't been physically dropped. Such code would
normally hold a lock on the relation.
This also replaces the "ownership" mechanism of SMgrRelations with a
pin counter. An SMgrRelation can now be "pinned", which prevents it
from being destroyed at end of transaction. There can be multiple pins
on the same SMgrRelation. In practice, the pin mechanism is only used
by the relcache, so there cannot be more than one pin on the same
SMgrRelation. Except with swap_relation_files XXX

ff9618e82a introduced has_partition_ancestor_privs(), which is used
to check whether a user has MAINTAIN on any partition ancestors.
This involves syscache lookups, and presently this function does
not take any relation locks, so it is likely subject to the same
kind of cache lookup failures that were fixed by 19de0ab23c.
To fix this problem, this commit partially reverts ff9618e82a.
Specifically, it removes the partition-related changes, including
the has_partition_ancestor_privs() function mentioned above. This
means that MAINTAIN on a partitioned table is no longer sufficient
to perform maintenance commands on its partitions. This is more
like how privileges for maintenance commands work on supported
versions. Privileges are checked for each partition, so a command
that flows down to all partitions might refuse to process them
(e.g., if the current user doesn't have MAINTAIN on the partition).
In passing, adjust a few related comments and error messages, and
add a test for the privilege checks for CLUSTER on a partitioned

Use a dedicated struct for the XID/MXID cutoffs used by VACUUM, such as
FreezeLimit and OldestXmin. This state is initialized in vacuum.c, and
then passed around by code from vacuumlazy.c to heapam.c freezing
related routines. The new convention is that everybody works off of the
same cutoff state, which is passed around via pointers to const.
Also simplify some of the logic for dealing with frozen xmin in
heap_prepare_freeze_tuple: add dedicated "xmin_already_frozen" state to
clearly distinguish xmin XIDs that we're going to freeze from those that
were already frozen from before. That way the routine's xmin handling
code is symmetrical with the existing xmax handling code. This is
preparation for an upcoming commit that will add page level freezing.
Also refactor the control flow within FreezeMultiXactId(), while adding
stricter sanity checks. We now test OldestXmin directly, instead of
using FreezeLimit as an inexact proxy for OldestXmin. This is further
preparation for the page level freezing work, which will make the
function's caller cede control of page level freezing to the function

guc.c has grown to be one of our largest .c files, making it
a bottleneck for compilation. It's also acquired a bunch of
knowledge that'd be better kept elsewhere, because of our not
very good habit of putting variable-specific check hooks here.
Hence, split it up along these lines:
* guc.c itself retains just the core GUC housekeeping mechanisms.
* New file guc_funcs.c contains the SET/SHOW interfaces and some
SQL-accessible functions for GUC manipulation.
* New file guc_tables.c contains the data arrays that define the
built-in GUC variables, along with some already-exported constant
tables.
* GUC check/assign/show hook functions are moved to the variable's
home module, whenever that's clearly identifiable. A few hard-
to-classify hooks ended up in commands/variable.c, which was
already a home for miscellaneous GUC hook functions.
To avoid cluttering a lot more header files with #include "guc.h",
I also invented a new header file utils/guc_hooks.h and put all
the GUC hook functions' declarations there, regardless of their
originating module. That allowed removal of #include "guc.h"
from some existing headers. The fallout from that (hopefully
all caught here) demonstrates clearly why such inclusions are
best minimized: there are a lot of files that, for example,
were getting array.h at two or more levels of remove, despite
not having any connection at all to GUCs in themselves.
There is some very minor code beautification here, such as
renaming a couple of inconsistently-named hook functions
and improving some comments. But mostly this just moves
code from point A to point B and deals with the ensuing
needs for #include adjustments and exporting a few functions
that previously weren't exported.
Patch by me, per a suggestion from Andres Freund; thanks also
to Michael Paquier for the idea to invent guc_funcs.c.

We have been using the term RelFileNode to refer to either (1) the
integer that is used to name the sequence of files for a certain relation
within the directory set aside for that tablespace/database combination;
or (2) that value plus the OIDs of the tablespace and database; or
occasionally (3) the whole series of files created for a relation
based on those values. Using the same name for more than one thing is
confusing.
Replace RelFileNode with RelFileNumber when we're talking about just the
single number, i.e. (1) from above, and with RelFileLocator when we're
talking about all the things that are needed to locate a relation's files
on disk, i.e. (2) from above. In the places where we refer to (3) as
a relfilenode, instead refer to "relation storage".
Since there is a ton of SQL code in the world that knows about
pg_class.relfilenode, don't change the name of that column, or of other
SQL-facing things that derive their name from it.
On the other hand, do adjust closely-related internal terminology. For
example, the structure member names dbNode and spcNode appear to be
derived from the fact that the structure itself was called RelFileNode,
so change those to dbOid and spcOid. Likewise, various variables with
names like rnode and relnode get renamed appropriately, according to
how they're being used in context.
Hopefully, this is clearer than before. It is also preparation for
future patches that intend to widen the relfilenumber fields from its
current width of 32 bits. Variables that store a relfilenumber are now
declared as type RelFileNumber rather than type Oid; right now, these
are the same, but that can now more easily be changed.

When VACUUM set relfrozenxid before now, it set it to whatever value was
used to determine which tuples to freeze -- the FreezeLimit cutoff.
This approach was very naive. The relfrozenxid invariant only requires
that new relfrozenxid values be <= the oldest extant XID remaining in
the table (at the point that the VACUUM operation ends), which in
general might be much more recent than FreezeLimit.
VACUUM now carefully tracks the oldest remaining XID/MultiXactId as it
goes (the oldest remaining values _after_ lazy_scan_prune processing).
The final values are set as the table's new relfrozenxid and new
relminmxid in pg_class at the end of each VACUUM. The oldest XID might
come from a tuple's xmin, xmax, or xvac fields. It might even come from
one of the table's remaining MultiXacts.
Final relfrozenxid values must still be >= FreezeLimit in an aggressive
VACUUM (FreezeLimit still acts as a lower bound on the final value that
aggressive VACUUM can set relfrozenxid to). Since standard VACUUMs
still make no guarantees about advancing relfrozenxid, they might as
well set relfrozenxid to a value from well before FreezeLimit when the
opportunity presents itself. In general standard VACUUMs may now set
relfrozenxid to any value > the original relfrozenxid and <= OldestXmin.
Credit for the general idea of using the oldest extant XID to set
pg_class.relfrozenxid at the end of VACUUM goes to Andres Freund.

This fixes a bug in the edge case where, for a temp table, heap_page_prune()
can end up with a different horizon than heap_vacuum_rel(). Which can trigger
errors like "ERROR: cannot freeze committed xmax ...".
The bug was introduced due to interaction of a7212be8b9e "Set cutoff xmin more
aggressively when vacuuming a temporary table." with dc7420c2c92 "snapshot
scalability: Don't compute global horizons while building snapshots.".
The problem is caused by lazy_scan_heap() assuming that the only reason its
HeapTupleSatisfiesVacuum() call would return HEAPTUPLE_DEAD is if the tuple is
a HOT tuple, or if the tuple's inserting transaction has aborted since the
heap_page_prune() call. But after a7212be8b9e that was also possible in other
cases for temp tables, because heap_page_prune() uses a different visibility
test after dc7420c2c92.
The fix is fairly simple: Move the special case logic for temp tables from
vacuum_set_xid_limits() to the infrastructure introduced in dc7420c2c92. That
ensures that the horizon used for pruning is at least as aggressive as the one
used by lazy_scan_heap(). The concrete horizon used for temp tables is
slightly different than the logic in dc7420c2c92, but should always be as
aggressive as before (see comments).
A significant benefit to centralizing the logic procarray.c is that now the
more aggressive horizons for temp tables does not just apply to VACUUM but
also to e.g. HOT pruning and the nbtree killtuples logic.
Because isTopLevel is not needed by vacuum_set_xid_limits() anymore, I
undid the the related changes from a7212be8b9e.
This commit also adds an isolation test ensuring that the more aggressive
vacuuming and pruning of temp tables keeps working.

Since other sessions aren't allowed to look into a temporary table
of our own session, we do not need to worry about the global xmin
horizon when setting the vacuum XID cutoff. Indeed, if we're not
inside a transaction block, we may set oldestXmin to be the next
XID, because there cannot be any in-doubt tuples in a temp table,
nor any tuples that are dead but still visible to some snapshot of
our transaction. (VACUUM, of course, is never inside a transaction
block; but we need to test that because CLUSTER shares the same code.)
This approach allows us to always clean out a temp table completely
during VACUUM, independently of concurrent activity. Aside from
being useful in its own right, that simplifies building reproducible
test cases.

This new cache lookup routine has been introduced in a40caf5, and more
code paths can directly use it.
Note that in cluster_rel(), the code was returning immediately if the
tuple's entry in pg_index for the clustered index was not valid. This
commit changes the code so as a lookup error is raised instead,
something that could not happen from the start as we check for the
existence of the index beforehand, while holding an exclusive lock on
the parent table.

Until now, only selected bulk operations (e.g. COPY) did this. If a
given relfilenode received both a WAL-skipping COPY and a WAL-logged
operation (e.g. INSERT), recovery could lose tuples from the COPY. See
src/backend/access/transam/README section "Skipping WAL for New
RelFileNode" for the new coding rules. Maintainers of table access
methods should examine that section.
To maintain data durability, just before commit, we choose between an
fsync of the relfilenode and copying its contents to WAL. A new GUC,
wal_skip_threshold, guides that choice. If this change slows a workload
that creates small, permanent relfilenodes under wal_level=minimal, try
adjusting wal_skip_threshold. Users setting a timeout on COMMIT may
need to adjust that timeout, and log_min_duration_statement analysis
will reflect time consumption moving to COMMIT from commands like COPY.
Internally, this requires a reliable determination of whether
RollbackAndReleaseCurrentSubTransaction() would unlink a relation's
current relfilenode. Introduce rd_firstRelfilenodeSubid. Amend the
specification of rd_createSubid such that the field is zero when a new
rel has an old rd_node. Make relcache.c retain entries for certain
dropped relations until end of transaction.
Bump XLOG_PAGE_MAGIC, since this introduces XLOG_GIST_ASSIGN_LSN.
Future servers accept older WAL, so this bump is discretionary.

This reverts commit cb2fd7eac285b1b0a24eeb2b8ed4456b66c5a09f. Per
numerous buildfarm members, it was incompatible with parallel query, and
a test case assumed LP64. Back-patch to 9.5 (all supported versions).

record type, XLOG_GIST_ASSIGN_LSN, without bumping XLOG_PAGE_MAGIC. As
always, update standby systems before master systems. This changes
sizeof(RelationData) and sizeof(IndexStmt), breaking binary

swap_relation_files() calls toast_get_valid_index() to find and lock
this index, just before swapping with the rebuilt TOAST index. The
latter function releases the lock before returning. Potential for
mischief is low; a concurrent session can issue ALTER INDEX ... SET
(fillfactor = ...), which is not alarming. Nonetheless, changing
pg_class.relfilenode without a lock is unconventional. Back-patch to
9.5 (all supported versions), because another fix needs this.

The following renaming is done so as source files related to index
access methods are more consistent with table access methods (the
original names used for index AMs ware too generic, and could be
confused as including features related to table AMs):
- amapi.h -> indexam.h.
- amapi.c -> indexamapi.c. Here we have an equivalent with
backend/access/table/tableamapi.c.
- amvalidate.c -> indexamvalidate.c.
- amvalidate.h -> indexamvalidate.h.
- genam.c -> indexgenam.c.
- genam.h -> indexgenam.h.
This has been discussed during the development of v12 when table AM was
worked on, but the renaming never happened.

detoast.c/h contain functions required to detoast a datum, partially
or completely, plus a few other utility functions for examining the
size of toasted datums.
toast_internals.c/h contain functions that are used internally to the
TOAST subsystem but which (mostly) do not need to be accessed from
outside.
heaptoast.c/h contains code that is intrinsically specific to the
heap AM, either because it operates on HeapTuples or is based on the
layout of a heap page.
detoast.c and toast_internals.c are placed in
src/backend/access/common rather than src/backend/access/heap. At
present, both files still have dependencies on the heap, but that will
be improved in a future commit.
