* pgsql: Allow using the updated tuple while moving it to a different par

Allow using the updated tuple while moving it to a different partition.

An update that causes the tuple to be moved to a different partition was
missing out on re-constructing the to-be-updated tuple, based on the latest
tuple in the update chain.  Instead, it's simply deleting the latest tuple
and inserting a new tuple in the new partition based on the old tuple.
Commit 2f17844104 didn't consider this case, so some of the updates were
getting lost.

In passing, change the argument order for output parameter in ExecDelete
and add some commentary about it.

Looks unrelated, but flaviventris (a snake?) has just complained:

Yeah, I am confused as to how this commit can lead to that failure.
Anyway, just to clarify my understanding, it seems that master node
has executed an Insert statement (INSERT INTO replayed(val) SELECT
coalesce(max(val),0) + 1 AS newval FROM replayed RETURNING val) and
waiting for standby to sync up.  In the meantime, some background
process (probably walsender ?) crashed.  Are you seeing anything
different?  Any other clue?

By the way, I could see the same (appears to be same) failure in other
buildfarm (skink, serinus, etc.) logs in some previous runs:
https://buildfarm.postgresql.org/cgi-bin/show_log.pl?nm=skink&dt=2017-11-30%2008%3A47%3A34

It didn't; looks like just a random failure to me.  The test is timing
out:

ok 26 - catalog xmin of cascaded slot still null with hs_feedback reset
# re-enabling hot_standby_feedback and disabling while stopped
### Reloading node "standby_2"
# Running: pg_ctl -D /home/bf/build/buildfarm-flaviventris/HEAD/pgsql.build/src/test/recovery/tmp_check/t_001_stream_rep_standby_2_data/pgdata reload
server signaled
Waiting for replication conn standby_1's replay_lsn to pass '0/30A1720' on master
done
Waiting for replication conn standby_2's replay_lsn to pass '0/30A1720' on standby_1
done
### Stopping node "standby_2" using mode fast
# Running: pg_ctl -D /home/bf/build/buildfarm-flaviventris/HEAD/pgsql.build/src/test/recovery/tmp_check/t_001_stream_rep_standby_2_data/pgdata -m fast stop
waiting for server to shut down.... done
server stopped
# No postmaster PID for node "standby_2"
# 
Timed out waiting for slot xmins to advance at t/001_stream_rep.pl line 157.


This looks to me like it's probably a low-probability timing problem in
the test script itself.  The relevant part of the script is


$node_master->safe_psql('postgres', qq[INSERT INTO tab_int VALUES (11000);]);
replay_check();

$node_standby_2->safe_psql('postgres',
	'ALTER SYSTEM SET hot_standby_feedback = off;');
$node_standby_2->stop;

($xmin, $catalog_xmin) =
  get_slot_xmins($node_standby_1, $slotname_2, "xmin IS NOT NULL");
isnt($xmin, '', 'xmin of cascaded slot non-null with postgres shut down');


where the failure is occurring because get_slot_xmins() never sees the
expected state.  I'm suspicious that this is happening because the script
is making no attempt to ensure the relative timing of events on the three
servers --- notably, issuing a "reload" does nothing to guarantee that
the server has actually seen and responded to the parameter change.

As an extreme case, I can reproduce the failure exactly with this:

inline patch 1: src/test/recovery/t/001_stream_rep.pl (+1/-1 lines) download inline-1.patchdiff --git a/src/test/recovery/t/001_stream_rep.pl b/src/test/recovery/t/001_stream_rep.pl index a0d3e8f..0824184 100644 --- a/src/test/recovery/t/001_stream_rep.pl +++ b/src/test/recovery/t/001_stream_rep.pl @@ -286,7 +286,7 @@ is($catalog_xmin, '', note "re-enabling hot_standby_feedback and disabling while stopped"; $node_standby_2->safe_psql('postgres', 'ALTER SYSTEM SET hot_standby_feedback = on;'); -$node_standby_2->reload; +# $node_standby_2->reload; $node_master->safe_psql('postgres', qq[INSERT INTO tab_int VALUES (11000);]); replay_check();
so I'm thinking that what we're seeing is an effect of the second standby sometimes being too slow to turn on hot_standby_feedback. We could maybe hack around that with a short "sleep" in this script, but a less cruddy solution would be to change PostgresNode::reload so that it somehow waits for the server to process the reload signal. regards, tom lane ^ permalink raw reply [nested|flat] 5+ messages in thread
