For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to
indicate such situations.

For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to
indicate such situations.

For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to
indicate such situations.

* [PATCH v44 3/3] Replace assuming a composite object on a scalar

For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to
indicate such situations.

For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to
indicate such situations.

* [PATCH v45 3/3] Replace assuming a composite object on a scalar

For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to
indicate such situations.

* [PATCH v45 3/3] Replace assuming a composite object on a scalar

For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to
indicate such situations.

For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to
indicate such situations.

* [PATCH v45 3/3] Replace assuming a composite object on a scalar

For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to
indicate such situations.

* [PATCH v44 3/3] Replace assuming a composite object on a scalar

For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to
indicate such situations.

* [PATCH v49 3/3] Replace assuming a composite object on a scalar

For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to
indicate such situations.

For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to
indicate such situations.

* [PATCH v49 3/3] Replace assuming a composite object on a scalar

For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to
indicate such situations.

* [PATCH v48 3/3] Replace assuming a composite object on a scalar

For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to
indicate such situations.

* [PATCH v49 3/3] Replace assuming a composite object on a scalar

For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to
indicate such situations.

* [PATCH v46 3/3] Replace assuming a composite object on a scalar

For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to
indicate such situations.

* [PATCH v46 3/3] Replace assuming a composite object on a scalar

For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to
indicate such situations.

* [PATCH v46 3/3] Replace assuming a composite object on a scalar

For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to
indicate such situations.

* [PATCH v46 3/3] Replace assuming a composite object on a scalar

For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to
indicate such situations.

* [PATCH v49 3/3] Replace assuming a composite object on a scalar

For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to
indicate such situations.

* [PATCH v49 3/3] Replace assuming a composite object on a scalar

For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to
indicate such situations.

* [PATCH v49 3/3] Replace assuming a composite object on a scalar

For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to
indicate such situations.

For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to
indicate such situations.

For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to
indicate such situations.

* [PATCH v48 3/3] Replace assuming a composite object on a scalar

For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to
indicate such situations.

* [PATCH v46 3/3] Replace assuming a composite object on a scalar

For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to
indicate such situations.

For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to
indicate such situations.

* [PATCH v49 3/3] Replace assuming a composite object on a scalar

For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to
indicate such situations.

* [PATCH v48 3/3] Replace assuming a composite object on a scalar

For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to
indicate such situations.

* [PATCH v46 3/3] Replace assuming a composite object on a scalar

For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to
indicate such situations.

assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to

* [PATCH v49 3/3] Replace assuming a composite object on a scalar
@ 2021-01-20 15:53 Dmitrii Dolgov <[email protected]>

From: Dmitrii Dolgov @ 2021-01-20 15:53 UTC (permalink / raw)

For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to
indicate such situations.

* [PATCH v49 3/3] Replace assuming a composite object on a scalar

For jsonb subscripting assignment it could happen that the provided path
assumes an object or an array at some level, but the source jsonb has a
scalar value there. Originally the update operation will be skipped and
no message will be shown that nothing happened. Return an error to
indicate such situations.

Current patch behaviour is that if the autovacuum_vacuum_truncate is false, then
autovacuum will _not_ truncate any relations. If the parameter's value is true
(the default), then the relation's reloption will be honored.

A table-owner, or the database-owner, may enable truncation of a table, as they
may be trying to be nice and return the unused disk space back to the
OS/filesystem. But if the sysadmin/DBA (who is ultimately responsible for the
health of the entire db instance, as well as of any replicas of the db
instance),
wants to disable truncation across all databases to ensure that the replication
does not get stuck, then IMHO Postgres should empower the sysadmin to make
that decision, and override the relation-level setting enabled by the table-
owner or the database-owner.

Agreed. I'll consider writing a separate patch for this.

Makes sense. I don't think anything special needs to be done in the patch to
address this.

Documentation added. Pointers on if, where, and what kind of tests to add will
be appreciated.

If we want to maintain the convention of autovacuum parameters names to be of
the format "autovacuum_<vacuum-option's-name>" then I believe the name
autovacuum_vacuum_truncate (boolean) would be better, as compared to my original
proposal (autovacuum_disable_vacuum_truncate), or Laurenz's proposal above. The
default value should be true, to match the current autovacuum behaviour.

Taking silence from others to be a sign of no opposition, I'm moving forward
with the patch.

For documentation of this GUC, I borrowed heavily from the relevant sections of
CREATE TABLE and VACUUM docs.

There are 3 ways I wrote one of the sentences in the docs. I picked the last
one, as it is concise and clearer than the others. If others feel a different
choice of words would be better, I'm all ears.

         If <literal>false</literal>, autovacuum will not perform the

IIUC reloptions with corresponding GUCs typically override the GUC setting,
although autovacuum_enabled is arguably an exception.  If setting the GUC
to false overrides the relation-specific settings, it also becomes more
difficult to enable truncation for just a couple of tables, although that
might not be a popular use-case.  Furthermore, even if we do want the GUC
to override the reloption, it won't override VACUUM (TRUNCATE).

Perhaps it would be useful to say whether truncation was attempted in the

Hm.  I was thinking PGC_USERSET might make sense for this one, but that was
only because I didn't see any technical reason to restrict it.  I don't
know whether limiting it accomplishes anything beyond making it more
cumbersome for users to choose their desired default truncation setting.

Oops, sorry for the conflict.  I'm happy to take a step back and be the

+1 to having the reloption (if specified) override the GUC setting.
That is, I think that autovacuum_vacuum_truncate as defining
the default behavior for VACUUM truncation, and that the GUC should
only apply when neither the TRUNCATE option in VACUUM nor
the reloption is set.

One other difference in my version of the patch [0] is to call this GUC
vacuum_truncate and have it apply to both autovacuum and VACUUM.  I did
this for the following reasons:

* There is no autovacuum-specific storage parameter.  There is only
  vacuum_truncate and toast.vacuum_truncate, both of which apply to
  autovacuum and VACUUM.  Unfortunately, adding autovacuum-specific storage
  parameters at this point would break things for folks who are already
  using vacuum_truncate to prevent autovacuum from truncating.  In any
  case, I gather that we try to ordinarily keep storage parameters named
  the same as their corresponding GUCs.

* I'm not sure whether there's a real need to control the autovacuum
  default but not the VACUUM one.  I'd expect most users of this stuff to
  be worried about truncation in both cases, especially for the hot standby
  use-case mentioned upthread.

I should also mention that we just have a few weeks left in the v18
development cycle.  The code itself seems pretty straightforward, so if we
can agree on behavior and nomenclature, I'll do my darndest to get this
responsibly committed in time.

I agree that that is the way to go.
It makes no sense to restrict the feature to autovacuum.

+1

Here are two minor review comments from me.

+      <varlistentry id="guc-vacuum-truncate" xreflabel="autovacuum">

This xreflabel should be "vacuum_truncate", not "autovacuum".


-      lock on the table. The <literal>TRUNCATE</literal> parameter
-      of <link linkend="sql-vacuum"><command>VACUUM</command></link>, if specified, overrides the value
-      of this option.
+      Per-table value for <xref linkend="guc-vacuum-truncate"/> parameter.

It was explicitly documented that the TRUNCATE option in the VACUUM
command overrides the vacuum_truncate reloption, but this information
has been removed in the patch. Shouldn't we keep it to clarify
the priority of these settings?

+1 for the GUC name for the reasons you identified. But -1 for the behaviour
where the reloption and vacuum command's options overrides GUC.

I did not consider the VACUUM (TRUNCATE) command, and was focused on autovacuum,
since that's what caused the replication stall and the consequent application
outage in the anecdote I was relaying.

I'd like to bring our attention back to how this thread started. Will started
the discussion by asking for a way to disable autovacuum's truncate behaviour.
Even though the production outage he faced was due to manual vacuum, he was
worried about the same behaviour that autovacuum may cause, especially since the
parameter old_snapshot_threshold is no longer available; old_snapshot_threshold
allowed sysadmins like Will to disable the truncation behaviour globally. I
provided an anecdote where autovacuum's truncation behaviour had in fact caused
a replication outage as well as the consequent application outage.

The behaviour that is being proposed here does not prevent that situation from
arising again. A sysadmin who's trying to prevent replication outage and
a consequent application outage won't benefit from tuning vacuum_truncate GUC,
because a reloption or VACUUM (TRUNCATE) command will override its behaviour,
and lead to an outage.

We want this new GUC to give the sysadmin the power to override the per-relation
and per-command settings.

I guess what I'm looking for is a global switch that guarantees no relation
truncation will take place on the instance, so that the relevant replication
record is never emitted, and hence will never lead to a blocked replication on
the replica and never cause a consequent outage of applications connected to the
replica(s). That is, as a sysadmin, I need a global variable that overrides and
disables any relation-level and command-level truncation operations. I guess
that's why naming the GUC *disable*_vacuum_truncate made sense to me when I
initially proposed the autovacuum patch, since it was preventing autovacuum's
default truncation behaviour.

The downside of disabling _all_ truncation operations is that database size can
only grow and never shrink, and it may be frustrating for a regular user who's
trying to shrink their table sizes. Even in those situations, a sysadmin may
prefer that none of the tables ever be shrunk in normal operation, rather than
running the risk of causing a replication outage and a consequent application
outage.

In Will's words:
> I expect I would need to monitor
> tables for problematic growth, but that might be better than a surprise
> outage. I suppose the growth could cause an outage too, but I'm thinking it
> would be more controllable.

The sysadmin can schedule a periodic maintenance window where the GUC is changed
for the duration of the maintenance, allowing truncation operations globally,
and then running VACUUM (TRUNCATE), or relying on autovacuum to truncate
relations within that maintenance period.

With the proposed v2 patch behaviour, a regular user is still in control of
truncation behaviour, and hence can cause a replication outage and application
outage on the replicas. Essentially, this patch fails to help the sysadmin, and
leaves them at the mercy of table owners and database owners.

Perhaps the compromise is that that the sysadmin will run a regular script to
check that none of the relations have the reloption set to truncate the
relation, and also communicate to the application developers that they shouldn't
run the VACUUM (TRUNCATE) command. But anyone who has run a moderately large
fleet of Postgres instances would agree that both those things are not
foolproof, and will tend to be ignored or forgotten in the long run. Especially
the VACUUM (TRUNCATE) option is so enticing for the average user that it's near
impossible to prevent them from using it.

In the message linked by Will upthread, Andres says:

The snapshot_too_old error/feature is not available anymore, and add to that the
fact that manual scripts are not effective for transient tables; tables with
short-enough lifetime that they may be truncated before the next run of the
scripts.

I think this exercise is moot if we're not solving the problem of letting
sysadmin disable truncation altogether, and eliminating the possibility of an
outage. By moving forward with v2, we're not addressing the problem that Will
started this conversation with.

It's entirely possible that I might be misunderstanding your proposal, though,
in which case please feel free to illuminate how the proposed v2 patch will help
a sysadmin counter vacuum's and autovacuum's truncation behaviour, despite the
average user unknowingly monkeying with the database availability.

If the GUC is named vacuum_truncate, then as Fujii Masao reasoned, it can be
taken to mean the default value of per-relation and VACUUM options.

So I propose that GUC be named disable_vacuum_truncate (antonym of the name you
proposed), since it _prevents_ the default truncation behaviour of vacuum and
autovacuum. When false, vacuum and autovacuum perform truncation as they do
normally. When true, no truncations are performed, neither by vacuum nor by
autovacuum; they instead emit a NOTICE, notifying that relation truncation was
prevented by the GUC disable_vacuum_truncate. Default value should be false, to
match the current behaviour. The GUC context should be PGC_SIGHUP so that it can
be changed only by the sysadmin, and can be changed without requiring a restart.

Optional: disable_vacuum_truncate=true has no effect if wal_level==minimal,
since this whole debate and feature is to avoid replication outage, and any
downstream effects on replicas, hence irrelevant to systems where replication is
not in use.

Thank you for all your help and work on this patch! Unfortunately I haven't been
able to work on it as much as I would've liked to.

Essentially, you are looking for something that reinstates the unintended side
effect of "old_snapshot_threshold" that some people relied on.

I understand your reasoning.
What I am worried about, and why I am against that, is the POLA violation this
constitutes.  I PostgreSQL, there usually are global settings that can be
overridden by per-relation settings.  Doing it differently here would surprise
and confuse many users.

This is not the only way a user can do damage to the system by overriding the
administrator's settings.  Users can override all autovacuum settings and even
disable autovacuum on a table.  I don't think these settings are less dangerous
than VACUUM truncation.

Yours,
Laurenz Albe

Agreed... I couldn't help when reading through this thread the same
thought that the normal way we do this is by trying to pick the
sensible default and then giving options to override it on a more
granular level.

Agreed. To the degree I am sympathetic to Gurjeet's concern, it sounds
more like he is trying to solve a socio-technical issue, which I think
is beyond something that we can guarantee help with; ie presuming we
provide a convenient way to disable this generally, if people are
going to go out of their way to do the thing they have been told not
to...

So if the general idea is a guc "vacuum_truncate" which sets a global
default for whether vacuums and autovacuums should do truncation, and
we then have the storage parameter which would override the global
setting. And to be clear, there is also the decision on whether the
VACUUM commands default should default to truncate=on (like the
existing behavior) or truncate == vacuum_truncate guc, unless
explicitly set. I think the latter is probably the right way to go.

As an aside, thinking through a bunch of different scenarios, I think
I would actually be in favor of changing the default behavior to false
(I don't think it buys much for most workloads, and I'd love to see us
move towards defaults that minimize risk), but I suspect that may be a
bridge too far, at least in this release; but maybe down the line...
for now though I'd take an easy way for users to make it the default.

Thank you all for the discussion.  I've attempted to address the
outstanding feedback into the new version of the patch.

Here is a new version of the patch with tests and some other light edits.
I feel like this is committable, but I'll wait for a couple more days for
any other feedback or objections.

+# - Default Behavior -
+
+#vacuum_truncate = on			# enable truncation after vacuum

Since there's no existing GUC category that fits to vacuum_truncate,
I'm fine with adding a new category like "Vacuuming" and placing
vacuum_truncate there.

However, if we do this, ISTM that the new category should also be added to
guc_tables.h, and vacuum_truncate should be assigned to it in guc_tables.c.
Additionally, the documentation should be updated to include
the new category, with vacuum_truncate placed under it. Thought?

Ah, you're right, I need to fix the category.  Will post an updated patch

Here's a new version of the patch with the GUC placed in a new "Default
Behavior" category for vacuum-related parameters.

We added isset_offset to the public struct to introduce this new general
behavior of tracking whether any table reloption has been set (not just
vacuum_truncate) without any comments.

I get the need for this kind of logic, since we used a boolean for the
table option, but as a self-proclaimed hack it seems worth more comments
than provided here.  Especially pertaining to whether this is indeed
generic or vacuum_truncate specific.  It's unclear since both isset and
vacuum_truncate_set have been introduced.  If it is now a general property
applying to any setting then vacuum_truncate_set shouldn't be needed - we
should just get the isset value of the existing vacuum_truncate reloption
by name.

I'm happy to expand the comments, but...

the reason I added this field is because I couldn't find any existing way
to get this information where it's needed.  So, I followed the existing
pattern of adding an offset to something we can access.  This can be used
for any reloption, but currently vacuum_truncate is the only one that does.

How does something like this look for the comment?

	/*

I'll come back to the comment if it's needed.  I was concerned about
dump/restore and apparently pg_dump has been perfectly capable of
determining whether the current catalog state for a reloption, even a
boolean, is unset, true, or false.  Namely, the following outcomes:

create table vtt (x int not null, y int not null);
CREATE TABLE public.vtt (
    x integer NOT NULL,
    y integer NOT NULL
);

alter table vtt set (vacuum_truncate = true);
CREATE TABLE public.vtt (
    x integer NOT NULL,
    y integer NOT NULL
)
WITH (vacuum_truncate='true');

alter table vtt reset (vacuum_truncate);

CREATE TABLE public.vtt (
    x integer NOT NULL,
    y integer NOT NULL
);

So my concern about dump/restore seems to be alleviated but then, why can
we not just do whatever pg_dump is doing to decide whether the current
value for vacuum_truncate is its default (and thus would not be dumped) or
not (and would be dumped)?

pg_dump looks at the pg_class.reloptions array directly.  In the vacuum
code, we look at the pre-parsed rd_options (see RelationParseRelOptions()
in relcache.c), which will have already resolved vacuum_truncate to its
default value if it was not explicitly set.  We could probably look at
pg_class.reloptions directly in the vacuum code if we _really_ wanted to,
but I felt that putting this information into rd_options was much cleaner.
