The guc used to specifie the directory to store temporary statistics
files. It is no longer needed by the stats collector but still used by
the programs in bin and contirb, and maybe other extensions. Thus this
patch removes the GUC but some backing variables and macro definitions
are left alone for backward comptibility.

* [PATCH 5/5] Remove the GUC stats_temp_directory

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2018-11-27 05:42 UTC (permalink / raw)

The guc used to specifie the directory to store temporary statistics
files. It is no longer needed by the stats collector but still used by
the programs in bin and contirb, and maybe other extensions. Thus this
patch removes the GUC but some backing variables and macro definitions
are left alone for backward comptibility.

* [PATCH 6/6] Remove the GUC stats_temp_directory
@ 2018-11-27 05:42 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2018-11-27 05:42 UTC (permalink / raw)

The guc used to specifie the directory to store temporary statistics
files. It is no longer needed by the stats collector but still used by
the programs in bin and contirb, and maybe other extensions. Thus this
patch removes the GUC but some backing variables and macro definitions
are left alone for backward comptibility.

* [PATCH 5/5] Remove the GUC stats_temp_directory
@ 2018-11-27 05:42 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2018-11-27 05:42 UTC (permalink / raw)

The guc used to specifie the directory to store temporary statistics
files. It is no longer needed by the stats collector but still used by
the programs in bin and contirb, and maybe other extensions. Thus this
patch removes the GUC but some backing variables and macro definitions
are left alone for backward comptibility.

* [PATCH 5/5] Remove the GUC stats_temp_directory
@ 2018-11-27 05:42 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2018-11-27 05:42 UTC (permalink / raw)

The guc used to specifie the directory to store temporary statistics
files. It is no longer needed by the stats collector but still used by
the programs in bin and contirb, and maybe other extensions. Thus this
patch removes the GUC but some backing variables and macro definitions
are left alone for backward comptibility.

The guc used to specifie the directory to store temporary statistics
files. It is no longer needed by the stats collector but still used by
the programs in bin and contirb, and maybe other extensions. Thus this
patch removes the GUC but some backing variables and macro definitions
are left alone for backward comptibility.

* [PATCH 6/6] Remove the GUC stats_temp_directory
@ 2018-11-27 05:42 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2018-11-27 05:42 UTC (permalink / raw)

The guc used to specifie the directory to store temporary statistics
files. It is no longer needed by the stats collector but still used by
the programs in bin and contirb, and maybe other extensions. Thus this
patch removes the GUC but some backing variables and macro definitions
are left alone for backward comptibility.

* [PATCH v28 7/7] Remove the GUC stats_temp_directory
@ 2020-03-13 08:00 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-03-13 08:00 UTC (permalink / raw)

The GUC used to specify the directory to store temporary statistics
files. It is no longer needed by the stats collector but still used by
the programs in bin and contrib, and maybe other extensions. Thus this
patch removes the GUC but some backing variables and macro definitions
are left alone for backward compatibility.

* [PATCH v9 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

* [PATCH v3 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

+An INITTMP fork is created when new relation file is created to mark

* [PATCH v5 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

* [PATCH v19 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of

* [PATCH v3 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

* [PATCH v5 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

+An CLEANUP fork is created when a new relation file is created to mark

* [PATCH v4 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

* [PATCH v14 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

* [PATCH v4 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

* [PATCH v5 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

* [PATCH v4 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

* [PATCH v3 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

* [PATCH v5 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

* [PATCH v5 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

* [PATCH v3 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

* [PATCH v4 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

+An CLEANUP fork is created when a new relation file is created to mark

* [PATCH v3 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

* [PATCH v3 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

* [PATCH v5 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

+An CLEANUP fork is created when a new relation file is created to mark

* [PATCH v5 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

* [PATCH v22 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

+The Smgr MARK files

+An smgr mark file is an empty file that is created when a new relation

* [PATCH v10 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

* [PATCH v5 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

* [PATCH v3 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

* [PATCH v3 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

* [PATCH v3 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

+removed at transaction end but is left when the process crashes before
+the transaction ends. In contrast to 4 above, failure to remove an
+INITTMP file will lead to data loss, in which case the server will
+shut down.

* [PATCH v5 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

* [PATCH v5 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

* [PATCH v3 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

* [PATCH v12 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

* [PATCH v15 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

* [PATCH v16 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

+The Smgr MARK files
+--------------------------------

+An smgr mark file is created when a new relation file is created to
+mark the relfilenode needs to be cleaned up at recovery time.  In
+contrast to the four actions above, failure to remove smgr mark files
+will lead to data loss, in which case the server will shut down.

* [PATCH v4 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

+An CLEANUP fork is created when a new relation file is created to mark

* [PATCH v2 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

* [PATCH v5 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

* [PATCH v3 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

* [PATCH v4 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

* [PATCH v5 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

* [PATCH v6 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

* [PATCH v5 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

* [PATCH v13 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

* [PATCH v4 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

* [PATCH v4 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

+The CLEANUP fork file
+--------------------------------

+An CLEANUP fork is created when a new relation file is created to mark
+the relfilenode needs to be cleaned up at recovery time.  In contrast

* [PATCH v4 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

* [PATCH v3 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

+An INITTMP fork is created when new relation file is created to mark

* [PATCH v21 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

* [PATCH v4 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

* [PATCH v5 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

* [PATCH v3 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

* [PATCH v3 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

* [PATCH v4 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

* [PATCH v5 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

* [PATCH v4 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

* [PATCH v4 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

* [PATCH v5 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

* [PATCH v4 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

* [PATCH v3 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

* [PATCH v17 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

+The Smgr MARK files

+An smgr mark file is created when a new relation file is created to

+contrast to the four actions above, failure to remove smgr mark files

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

+The INITTMP fork file
+--------------------------------

+An INITTMP fork is created when new relation file is created to mark

* [PATCH v3 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

* [PATCH v4 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

* [PATCH v18 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

* [PATCH v3 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

+An INITTMP fork is created when new relation file is created to mark

* [PATCH v20 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

* [PATCH v3 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

* [PATCH v3 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

+An INITTMP fork is created when new relation file is created to mark

* [PATCH v4 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

* [PATCH v5 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

* [PATCH v11 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

+An smgr mark file is created when a new relation file is created to

* [PATCH v5 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

* [PATCH v5 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

* [PATCH v3 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

+An INITTMP fork is created when new relation file is created to mark

* [PATCH v5 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

* [PATCH v4 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

* [PATCH v3 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

* [PATCH v4 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

* [PATCH v4 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

* [PATCH v8 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

+The Smgr MARK files
+--------------------------------

+An smgr mark file is created when a new relation file is created to
+mark the relfilenode needs to be cleaned up at recovery time.  In
+contrast to the four actions above, failure to remove smgr mark files
+will lead to data loss, in which case the server will shut down.

* [PATCH v4 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

* [PATCH v5 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2020-11-11 12:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-11-11 12:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

* [PATCH v24 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2022-07-19 04:23 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2022-07-19 04:23 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

 entry until we've successfully done the original action.
 
+================================
+The Smgr MARK files
+--------------------------------
+
+An smgr mark file is an empty file that is created when a new relation
+storage file is created to signal that the storage file needs to be
+cleaned up at recovery time.  In contrast to the four actions above,
+failure to remove smgr mark files will lead to data loss, in which
+case the server will shut down.

* [PATCH v23 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2022-07-19 04:23 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2022-07-19 04:23 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

* [PATCH v25 1/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2022-07-19 04:23 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2022-07-19 04:23 UTC (permalink / raw)

Even though ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED does not require data
rewriting, currently it runs heap rewrite which causes large amount of
file I/O.  This patch makes the command run without heap rewrite.
Addition to that, SET LOGGED while wal_level > minimal emits WAL using
XLOG_FPI instead of massive number of HEAP_INSERT's, which should be
smaller.

Also this allows for the cleanup of files left behind in the crash of
the transaction that created it.

* [PATCH v27 2/3] In-place table persistence change
@ 2023-03-15 06:42 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2023-03-15 06:42 UTC (permalink / raw)

Currently, the command cuases a large amount of file I/O due to heap
rewrite, even though ALTER TABLE SET UNLOGGED does not require any
data rewrites.  In addition, this patch changes ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED
to emit XLOG_FPI records instead of a large number of HEAP_INSERT's
when wal_level > minimal, as this option is likely to be less resource
intensive.

* [PATCH v28 2/4] In-place table persistence change
@ 2023-04-25 06:49 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2023-04-25 06:49 UTC (permalink / raw)

Previously, the command caused a large amount of file I/O due to heap
rewrites, even though ALTER TABLE SET UNLOGGED does not require any
data rewrites.  This patch eliminates the need for
rewrites. Additionally, ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED is updated to emit
XLOG_FPI records instead of numerous HEAP_INSERTs when wal_level >
minimal, reducing resource consumption.

* [PATCH v29 2/3] In-place table persistence change
@ 2023-04-25 06:49 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2023-04-25 06:49 UTC (permalink / raw)

Previously, the command caused a large amount of file I/O due to heap
rewrites, even though ALTER TABLE SET UNLOGGED does not require any
data rewrites.  This patch eliminates the need for
rewrites. Additionally, ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED is updated to emit
XLOG_FPI records instead of numerous HEAP_INSERTs when wal_level >
minimal, reducing resource consumption.

* [PATCH v29 2/3] In-place table persistence change
@ 2023-04-25 06:49 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2023-04-25 06:49 UTC (permalink / raw)

Previously, the command caused a large amount of file I/O due to heap
rewrites, even though ALTER TABLE SET UNLOGGED does not require any
data rewrites.  This patch eliminates the need for
rewrites. Additionally, ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED is updated to emit
XLOG_FPI records instead of numerous HEAP_INSERTs when wal_level >
minimal, reducing resource consumption.

* [PATCH v29 2/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2023-09-04 08:23 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2023-09-04 08:23 UTC (permalink / raw)

Previously, the command caused a large amount of file I/O due to heap
rewrites, even though ALTER TABLE SET UNLOGGED does not require any
data rewrites.  This patch eliminates the need for
rewrites. Additionally, ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED is updated to emit
XLOG_FPI records instead of numerous HEAP_INSERTs when wal_level >
minimal, reducing resource consumption.

* [PATCH v29 2/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2023-09-04 08:23 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2023-09-04 08:23 UTC (permalink / raw)

Previously, the command caused a large amount of file I/O due to heap
rewrites, even though ALTER TABLE SET UNLOGGED does not require any
data rewrites.  This patch eliminates the need for
rewrites. Additionally, ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED is updated to emit
XLOG_FPI records instead of numerous HEAP_INSERTs when wal_level >
minimal, reducing resource consumption.

* [PATCH v29 2/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2023-09-04 08:23 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2023-09-04 08:23 UTC (permalink / raw)

Previously, the command caused a large amount of file I/O due to heap
rewrites, even though ALTER TABLE SET UNLOGGED does not require any
data rewrites.  This patch eliminates the need for
rewrites. Additionally, ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED is updated to emit
XLOG_FPI records instead of numerous HEAP_INSERTs when wal_level >
minimal, reducing resource consumption.

* [PATCH v29 2/2] In-place table persistence change
@ 2023-09-04 08:23 Kyotaro Horiguchi <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2023-09-04 08:23 UTC (permalink / raw)

Previously, the command caused a large amount of file I/O due to heap
rewrites, even though ALTER TABLE SET UNLOGGED does not require any
data rewrites.  This patch eliminates the need for
rewrites. Additionally, ALTER TABLE SET LOGGED is updated to emit
XLOG_FPI records instead of numerous HEAP_INSERTs when wal_level >
minimal, reducing resource consumption.

I see the confusion caused — sorry. The headline was meant to describe the observed behaviour in 17beta1, while the content refers to how the standard defines it.

> Without those clauses a result is either empty or an error - they are mutually exclusive (ignoring matches).  I would not expect one clause to imply or affect the behavior of the other.  There is no chaining.  The original result is transformed to the new result specified by the clause.

Agreed, that’s why I found the 17beta1 behaviour surprising. 

> I’d need to figure out whether the example you show is actually producing empty or error; but it seems correct if the result is empty.

As I understand the standard, an empty result is not an error.

>   The first query ignores the error clause - the empty array row seems to be the representation of empty here; the second one matches the empty clause and outputs null instead of the empty array.

But the first should behave the same, as the standard implies NULL ON EMPTY if there is no explicit ON EMPTY clause. Oracle DB behaving differently here makes me wonder if there is something in the standard that I haven’t noticed yet...

* [PATCH v1] aio: io_uring: Fix danger of completion getting reused before being read
@ 2026-01-15 15:17 Andres Freund <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 110+ messages in thread

From: Andres Freund @ 2026-01-15 15:17 UTC (permalink / raw)

We called io_uring_cqe_seen(..., cqe) before reading cqe->res. That allows the
completion to be reused, which in turn could lead to cqe->res being
overwritten. The window for that is very narrow and the likelihood of it
happening is very low, as we should never actually utilize all CQEs, but the
consequences would be bad.

This bug was reported to me privately.
