I know we concluded that allowing multiple independent keys, e.g., per user, per table, didn't make sense since they have to be unlocked all the time, e.g., for crash recovery and vacuum freeze. However, that assumes that all heap/index pages are encrypted, and all of WAL. What if we encrypted only the user-data part of the page, i.e., tuple data.

I'm a bit confused as I never agreed that made any sense and I continue to feel that it doesn't make sense to have one key for everything. Crash recovery doesn't happen "all the time" and neither does vacuum freeze, and autovacuum processes are independent of individual client backends- we don't need to (and shouldn't) have the keys in shared memory. > However, that assumes that all heap/index pages are encrypted, and all > of WAL.

Strictly speaking, that isn't actually crash recovery, it's physical replication / HA, and while those are certainly nice to have it's no guarantee that they're required or that you'd want to have the same keys for them- conceptually, at least, you could have WAL with one key that both sides know and then different keys for the actual data files, if we go with the approach where the WAL is encrypted with one key and then otherwise is plaintext. > >>However, that assumes that all heap/index pages are encrypted, and all > >>of WAL.

I agree entirely that order information would be bad to leak- but this is all new ground here and we haven't actually sorted out what such a partially encrypted btree would look like.

Using an encrypted index isn't going to be free. It's not clear that this would be much more expensive than if the entire index is encrypted, or that people would actually be unhappy if there was such an additional expense if it meant that they could have vacuum run without the keys.

Agreed, but I think we kind of know that the value in cluster-wide encryption is different from multi-key encryption --- both have their value, but right now cluster-wide is the easiest and simplest, and probably meets more user needs than multi-key encryption. If others want to start scoping out what multi-key encryption would look like, we can discuss it. I personally would like to focus on cluster-wide encryption for PG 13. > > >>Is this something considering in version one of this feature? Probably > > >>not, but later? Never?

Yes, I think it is information leakage that is always going to make multi-key unable to fulfill all the features of cluster-wide encryption. -- Bruce Momjian <[email protected]> http://momjian.us EnterpriseDB http://enterprisedb.com + As you are, so once was I.

I agree that cluster-wide is more simpler but I'm not sure that it meets real needs from users. One example is re-encryption; when the key leakage happens, in cluster-wide encryption we end up with doing re-encrypt whole database regardless the amount of user sensitive data in database. I think it's a big constraint for users because it's common that the amount of data such as master table that needs to be encrypted doesn't account for a large potion of database. That's one reason why I think more fine granularity encryption such as table/tablespace is required. And in terms of feature development we would implement fine-granularity encryption in the future even if the first step is cluster-wide encryption? And both TDEs encrypt the same kind of database objects (i.e. only tables , indexes and WAL)? If so, how does users use them depending on cases? I imagined the case where we had the cluster-wide encryption as the first TDE feature. We will enable TDE at initdb time by specifying the command-line parameter for TDE. Then TDE is enabled in cluster wide and all tables/indexes and WAL are automatically encrypted. Then, if we want to implement the more fine granularity encryption how can we make users use it? WAL encryption and tables/index encryption are enabled at the same time but we want to enable encryption for particular tables/indexes after initdb. If the cluster-wide encryption is something like a short-cut of encrypting all tables/indexes, I personally think that implementing the more fine granularity one first and then using it to achieve the more coarse granularity would be more easier.

My understanding it that all this work is motivated by the assumption that Bob can obtain access to the data directory (say, a backup of it). So if he also manages to get access to the encryption key, we probably have to assume he already has access to current snapshot of the data directory, which means any re-encryption is pretty futile. What we can (and should) optimize for is key rotation, but as that only changes the master key and not the actual encryption keys, the overhead is pretty low.

One reason is that with cluster-wide you can just assume everything is encrypted and handle it the same way, while with fine-grained encryption you need to whether each individual object is encrypted, maybe handle it in different ways, etc. But that's just my guess, really. -- Tomas Vondra http://www.2ndQuadrant.com PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Remote DBA, Training & Services ^ permalink raw reply [nested|flat] 553+ messages in thread

I'm not sure that we can ignore the risk of MDEK leakage. Once MDEK is leaked for whatever reason all that is left for attacker is to steal data. User who realized that MDEK is leaked will have to re-encrypt data. Even if the data is already stolen user will want to re-encrypt data to protect further attacks.

I don't know how to move this thread forward, so I am going to try to explain how I view it. People want feature X and feature Y. Feature X seems straight-forward to implement, use, and seems secure. Feature Y is none of those, so far. When I explain that feature X is the direction we should go in for PG 13, people give more reasons they want feature Y, but don't give any details about how the problems of implemention, use, and security can be addressed. I just don't see that continuing to discuss feature Y with no details in how to implement it really helps, so I have no reply to these ideas. People can talk about whatever feature they want on these lists, but I have no way to help discussions that don't address facts. I will close with what I have already stated, that what people want, and what we can reasonably accomplish, are two different things. -- Bruce Momjian <[email protected]> http://momjian.us EnterpriseDB http://enterprisedb.com + As you are, so once was I.

It'd all be unlocked by the MDEK and you'd still need derived keys per WAL-file, but disconnecting all that from the data files solves a lot of the problems with promoted replicas. This would complicate cloning a replica as using a different MDEK would involve decrypting / encrypting everything rather than just copying the files.

One cool idea would be for the WAL on primary and standbys to use the same WAL key, but to use different heap/index keys. When the standby is promoted, there would be a way for the WAL to start using a new encryption key, and the heap/index would already be using its own encryption key. Setting up such a system seems complicated.

IMHO not breaking physical replication / HA should be pretty much required for any new feature, unless it's somehow obviously clear that it's not needed for that particular feature. I very much doubt we can make that conclusion for encrypted instances (at least I don't see why it would be the case in general). One reason is that those features are also used for backups, which I hope we both agree is not an optional feature. Maybe it's possible to modify pg_basebackup to re-encrypt all the data, but to do that it clearly needs to know all encryption keys (although not necessarily on the same side). >> >>However, that assumes that all heap/index pages are encrypted, and all >> >>of WAL.

I assume we wouldn't do that when only encrypting the index keys (because that would mean anything that accesses the index through shared buffers has to do the decryption, including autovacuum et al). Which means you have to do decryption on each index access (which you previously did not). IMHO that's a pretty clear and significant additional overhead. I know there were proposals to keep it encrypted in shared buffers, but I'm not sure that's what we'll end up doing (I have not followed the recent discussion all that closely, though). regards -- Tomas Vondra http://www.2ndQuadrant.com PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Remote DBA, Training & Services ^ permalink raw reply [nested|flat] 553+ messages in thread

I clearly explained why multiple keys, while desirable, have many negatives. If you want to address my replies, we can go over them again. What people want, and what we can reasonably accomplish, are two different things. > Crash recovery doesn't happen "all the time" and neither does vacuum > freeze, and autovacuum processes are independent of individual client > backends- we don't need to (and shouldn't) have the keys in shared > memory.

Well, I think he was saying that to reduce the overhead of encryption. I didn't see it as a way of allowing recovery and vacuum freeze. My exact reply was: > Well, you would need to decide what WAL information needs to be secured. > Is the fact an insert was performed on a table a security issue? > Depends on your risks.

Uh, well, if we are doing index cleaning by doing a sequential scan of the index, which I think we have done for many years, I think just looking at the tids should work. However, I don't know if we ever adjust index entries, like re-balance the trees. > > Is this something considering in version one of this feature? Probably > > not, but later? Never?

Wouldn't someone be able to see that same > information by looking directly at the relation too? Well, I assume we would encrypt the heap and its indexes. For example, if there is an employee table, and there is an index on the employee last name and employee salary, it would be trivial to get a list of employee salaries sorted by last name by just joining the tids, though you would not know the last names. That seems like an information leak to me. Plus, which tables were updated would be visible in WAL. And we would have issues with system tables, pg_statistics, and lots of other complexity. I can see value in eventually doing this, perhaps before we perform cluster-wide encryption, but doing it without cluster-wide encryption seems like it would leak too much information to be useful. -- Bruce Momjian <[email protected]> http://momjian.us EnterpriseDB http://enterprisedb.com + As you are, so once was I.

For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions.

This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state.

* [PATCH v2a 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2a 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2a 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2a 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2a 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2a 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2a 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state.

* [PATCH v2a 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state.

* [PATCH v2a 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2a 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state.

* [PATCH v2 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2a 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2a 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2a 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2a 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2a 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2a 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2a 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2a 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2a 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2a 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2a 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2a 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2a 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2a 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2a 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2a 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state.

* [PATCH v2a 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2a 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2a 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2a 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2a 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2a 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2a 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2a 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2a 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2a 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2a 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2a 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2a 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2a 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2a 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2a 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2a 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2a 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2a 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state.

Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state.

For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state.

* [PATCH v2a 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2a 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2a 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2a 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

* [PATCH v2 1/4] Add ternary reloption type @ 2025-09-04 14:34 Nikolay Shaplov <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 553+ messages in thread From: Nikolay Shaplov @ 2025-09-04 14:34 UTC (permalink / raw) There is a tendency for boolean reloptions in PostgreSQL code, one with "on" and "off" values, to be replaced with options with "on", "off", "[use_global_settings]" behaviour. For `vacuum_index_cleanup" and gist's `buffering` reloption such behavior have been implemented as enum-tyoe option. For vacuum_truncate this behaviour have been umplemented by adding additional `is_set` flag to `bytea` representation of the reloptions. Both solutions looks like workaround hacks to implement option with three available states. This patch introduce "ternary" reloption type, that behave like bool option, but also has an additional "unset" state. This state may be reachable only by not setting or RESETting an option, like in `vacuum_truncate` option, or it may have some text alias that allow user to explicitly set it, like "auto" in `vacuum_index_cleanup` or gist's `buffering` `vacuum_truncate`, `vacuum_index_cleanup` and gist's `buffering` reloptions are reimplemented as ternary reloptions without significant behaviour changes. --- This patch is split into four parts, to help reviewer grasp the login behind it.

These tests should pass before applying the patch, and after it. --- src/test/regress/expected/reloptions.out | 36 ++++++++++++++++++++++++ src/test/regress/sql/reloptions.sql | 21 ++++++++++++++ 2 files changed, 57 insertions(+) diff --git a/src/test/regress/expected/reloptions.out b/src/test/regress/expected/reloptions.out index 9de19b4e3f..1c99f79ab0 100644 --- a/src/test/regress/expected/reloptions.out +++ b/src/test/regress/expected/reloptions.out @@ -98,6 +98,42 @@ SELECT reloptions FROM pg_class WHERE oid = 'reloptions_test'::regclass; {fillfactor=13,autovacuum_enabled=false} (1 row) +-- Tests for future (FIXME) ternary options +-- behave as boolean option: accept unassigned name and truncated value +DROP TABLE reloptions_test; +CREATE TABLE reloptions_test(i INT) WITH (vacuum_truncate); +SELECT reloptions FROM pg_class WHERE oid = 'reloptions_test'::regclass; + reloptions +------------------------ + {vacuum_truncate=true} +(1 row) + +DROP TABLE reloptions_test; +CREATE TABLE reloptions_test(i INT) WITH (vacuum_truncate=FaLS); +SELECT reloptions FROM pg_class WHERE oid = 'reloptions_test'::regclass; + reloptions +------------------------ + {vacuum_truncate=fals} +(1 row) + +-- preferred "true" alias is used when storing +DROP TABLE reloptions_test; +CREATE TABLE reloptions_test(i INT) WITH (vacuum_index_cleanup=on); +SELECT reloptions FROM pg_class WHERE oid = 'reloptions_test'::regclass; + reloptions +--------------------------- + {vacuum_index_cleanup=on} +(1 row) + +-- custom "third" value is available +DROP TABLE reloptions_test; +CREATE TABLE reloptions_test(i INT) WITH (vacuum_index_cleanup=auto); +SELECT reloptions FROM pg_class WHERE oid = 'reloptions_test'::regclass; + reloptions +----------------------------- + {vacuum_index_cleanup=auto} +(1 row) + -- Test vacuum_truncate option DROP TABLE reloptions_test; CREATE TEMP TABLE reloptions_test(i INT NOT NULL, j text) diff --git a/src/test/regress/sql/reloptions.sql b/src/test/regress/sql/reloptions.sql index 24fbe0b478..f5980dafcb 100644 --- a/src/test/regress/sql/reloptions.sql +++ b/src/test/regress/sql/reloptions.sql @@ -59,6 +59,27 @@ UPDATE pg_class ALTER TABLE reloptions_test RESET (illegal_option); SELECT reloptions FROM pg_class WHERE oid = 'reloptions_test'::regclass; +-- Tests for future (FIXME) ternary options + +-- behave as boolean option: accept unassigned name and truncated value +DROP TABLE reloptions_test; +CREATE TABLE reloptions_test(i INT) WITH (vacuum_truncate); +SELECT reloptions FROM pg_class WHERE oid = 'reloptions_test'::regclass; + +DROP TABLE reloptions_test; +CREATE TABLE reloptions_test(i INT) WITH (vacuum_truncate=FaLS); +SELECT reloptions FROM pg_class WHERE oid = 'reloptions_test'::regclass; + +-- preferred "true" alias is used when storing +DROP TABLE reloptions_test; +CREATE TABLE reloptions_test(i INT) WITH (vacuum_index_cleanup=on); +SELECT reloptions FROM pg_class WHERE oid = 'reloptions_test'::regclass; + +-- custom "third" value is available +DROP TABLE reloptions_test; +CREATE TABLE reloptions_test(i INT) WITH (vacuum_index_cleanup=auto); +SELECT reloptions FROM pg_class WHERE oid = 'reloptions_test'::regclass; + -- Test vacuum_truncate option DROP TABLE reloptions_test; -- 2.39.2 --nextPart5129932.5fSG56mABF Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="v2-0002-Introduce-ternary-reloptions.patch" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7Bit Content-Type: text/x-patch; charset="unicode-2-0-utf-8"; name="v2-0002-Introduce-ternary-reloptions.patch" ^ permalink raw reply [nested|flat] 553+ messages in thread
