      Consider a clause to be outerjoin_delayed if it references the nullable side · dcc23347
      Tom Lane 提交于
      of any lower outer join, even if it also references the non-nullable side and
      so could not get pushed below the outer join anyway.  We need this in case
      the clause is an OR clause: if it doesn't get marked outerjoin_delayed,
      create_or_index_quals() could pull an indexable restriction for the nullable
      side out of it, leading to wrong results as demonstrated by today's bug
      report from toruvinn.  (See added regression test case for an example.)
      
      In principle this has been wrong for quite a while.  In practice I don't
      think any branch before 8.3 can really show the failure, because
      create_or_index_quals() will only pull out indexable conditions, and before
      8.3 those were always strict.  So though we might have improperly generated
      null-extended rows in the outer join, they'd get discarded from the result
      anyway.  The gating factor that makes the failure visible is that 8.3
      considers "col IS NULL" to be indexable.  Hence I'm not going to risk
      back-patching further than 8.3.

      Reduce the alignment requirement of type "name" from int to char, and arrange · 5f6f840e
      Tom Lane 提交于
      to suppress zero-padding of "name" entries in indexes.
      
      The alignment change is unlikely to save any space, but it is really needed
      anyway to make the world safe for our widespread practice of passing plain
      old C strings to functions that are declared as taking Name.  In the previous
      coding, the C compiler was entitled to assume that a Name pointer was
      word-aligned; but we were failing to guarantee that.  I think the reason
      we'd not seen failures is that usually the only thing that gets done with
      such a pointer is strcmp(), which is hard to optimize in a way that exploits
      word-alignment.  Still, some enterprising compiler guy will probably think
      of a way eventually, or we might change our code in a way that exposes
      more-obvious optimization opportunities.
      
      The padding change is accomplished in one-liner fashion by declaring the
      "name" index opclasses to use storage type "cstring" in pg_opclass.h.
      Normally btree and hash don't allow a nondefault storage type, because they
      don't have any provisions for converting the input datum to another type.
      However, because name and cstring are effectively the same thing except for
      padding, no conversion is needed --- we only need index_form_tuple() to treat
      the datum as being cstring not name, and this is sufficient.  This seems to
      make for about a one-third reduction in the typical sizes of system catalog
      indexes that involve "name" columns, of which we have many.
      
      These two changes are only weakly related, but the alignment change makes
      me feel safer that the padding change won't introduce problems, so I'm
      committing them together.

      Seems I was too optimistic in supposing that sinval's maxMsgNum could be · dab421d2
      Tom Lane 提交于
      read and written without a lock.  The value itself is atomic, sure, but on
      processors with weak memory ordering it's possible for a reader to see the
      value change before it sees the associated message written into the buffer
      array.  Fix by introducing a spinlock that's used just to read and write
      maxMsgNum.  (We could do this with less overhead if we recognized a concept
      of "memory access barrier"; is it worth introducing such a thing?  At the
      moment probably not --- I can't measure any clear slowdown from adding the
      spinlock, so this solution is probably fine.)  Per buildfarm results.

      Rewrite the sinval messaging mechanism to reduce contention and avoid · fad153ec
      Tom Lane 提交于
      unnecessary cache resets.  The major changes are:
      
      * When the queue overflows, we only issue a cache reset to the specific
      backend or backends that still haven't read the oldest message, rather
      than resetting everyone as in the original coding.
      
      * When we observe backend(s) falling well behind, we signal SIGUSR1
      to only one backend, the one that is furthest behind and doesn't already
      have a signal outstanding for it.  When it finishes catching up, it will
      in turn signal SIGUSR1 to the next-furthest-back guy, if there is one that
      is far enough behind to justify a signal.  The PMSIGNAL_WAKEN_CHILDREN
      mechanism is removed.
      
      * We don't attempt to clean out dead messages after every message-receipt
      operation; rather, we do it on the insertion side, and only when the queue
      fullness passes certain thresholds.
      
      * Split SInvalLock into SInvalReadLock and SInvalWriteLock so that readers
      don't block writers nor vice versa (except during the infrequent queue
      cleanout operations).
      
      * Transfer multiple sinval messages for each acquisition of a read or
      write lock.
