While make check of pg_upgrade, output directory is placed at a
separate place from ordinary tmp_install. However Makefile
reinitializes tablespace directory under the ordinary tmp_install,
which may be being used by concurrent backend make check. The
dedicate output directory doesn't need initialization so we just avoid
tablespace initialization for the case.

* [PATCH 2/2] Don't setup tablespace directory while testing pg_upgrade

While make check of pg_upgrade, output directory is placed at a
separate place from ordinary tmp_install. However Makefile
reinitializes tablespace directory under the ordinary tmp_install,
which may be being used by concurrent backend make check. The
dedicate output directory doesn't need initialization so we just avoid
tablespace initialization for the case.

* [PATCH 2/2] Don't setup tablespace directory while testing pg_upgrade

While make check of pg_upgrade, output directory is placed at a
separate place from ordinary tmp_install. However Makefile
reinitializes tablespace directory under the ordinary tmp_install,
which may be being used by concurrent backend make check. The
dedicate output directory doesn't need initialization so we just avoid
tablespace initialization for the case.

* [PATCH 2/2] Don't setup tablespace directory while testing pg_upgrade

While make check of pg_upgrade, output directory is placed at a
separate place from ordinary tmp_install. However Makefile
reinitializes tablespace directory under the ordinary tmp_install,
which may be being used by concurrent backend make check. The
dedicate output directory doesn't need initialization so we just avoid
tablespace initialization for the case.

* [PROPOSAL] Doublewrite Buffer as an alternative torn page protection to Full Page Write

Hi hackers,
I raised this topic a while back [1] but didn't get much traction, so
I went ahead and implemented it: a doublewrite buffer (DWB) mechanism
for PostgreSQL as an alternative to full_page_writes.
The core argument is straightforward. FPW and checkpoint frequency are
fundamentally at odds:
- FPW wants fewer checkpoints -- each checkpoint triggers a wave of
full-page WAL writes for every page dirtied for the first time,
bloating WAL and tanking write throughput.
- Fast crash recovery wants more checkpoints -- less WAL to replay
means the database comes back sooner.
DWB resolves this tension by moving torn page protection out of the
WAL path entirely. Instead of writing full pages into WAL (foreground,
latency-sensitive), dirty pages are sequentially written to a
dedicated doublewrite buffer area on disk before being flushed to
their actual locations. The buffer is fsync'd once when full, then
pages are scatter-written to their final positions. On crash recovery,
intact copies from the DWB repair any torn pages.
Key design differences:
- FPW: 1 WAL write (foreground) + 1 page write = directly impacts SQL latency
- DWB: 2 page writes (background flush path) = minimal user-visible impact
- DWB batches fsync() across multiple pages; WAL fsync batching is
limited by foreground latency constraints
- DWB decouples torn page protection from checkpoint frequency, so you
can checkpoint as often as you want without write amplification
I ran sysbench benchmarks (io-bound, --tables=10
--table_size=10000000) with checkpoint_timeout=30s,
shared_buffers=4GB, synchronous_commit=on. Each scenario uses a fresh
database, VACUUM FULL, 60s warmup, 300s run.
Results (TPS):
FPW OFF FPW ON DWB ON
read_write/32 18,038 7,943 13,009
read_write/64 24,249 9,533 15,387
read_write/128 27,801 9,715 15,387
write_only/32 53,146 18,116 31,460
write_only/64 57,628 19,589 32,875
write_only/128 59,454 14,857 33,814
Avg latency (ms):
FPW OFF FPW ON DWB ON
read_write/32 1.77 4.03 2.46
read_write/64 2.64 6.71 4.16
read_write/128 4.60 13.17 9.81
write_only/32 0.60 1.77 1.02
write_only/64 1.11 3.27 1.95
write_only/128 2.15 8.61 3.78
FPW ON drops to ~25% of baseline (FPW OFF). DWB ON holds at ~57%. In
write-heavy scenarios DWB delivers over 2x the throughput of FPW with
significantly better latency.
The implementation is here: https://github.com/baotiao/postgres
I'd appreciate any feedback on the approach. Would be great if the
community could take a look and see if this direction is worth
pursuing upstream.
Thanks,
Baotiao

Hi Baotiao
I'm a newbie here, but took Your idea with some interest, probably everyone
else is busy with work on other patches before commit freeze.
I think it would be valuable to have this as I've been hit by PostgreSQL's
unsteady (chain-saw-like) WAL traffic, especially related to touching 1st the
pages after checkpoint, up to the point of saturating network links. The common
counter-argument to double buffering is probably that FPI may(?) increase WAL
standby replication rate and this would have to be measured into account
(but we also should take into account how much maintenance_io_concurrency/
posix_fadvise() prefetching that we do today helps avoid any I/O stalls on
fetching pages - so it should be basically free), I see even that you
got benefits
by not using FPI. Interesting.
Some notes/questions about the patches itself:
0. The convention here is send the patches using:
git format-patch -v<VERSION> HEAD~<numberOfpatches>
for easier review. The 0003 probably should be out of scope. Anyway I've
attached all of those so maybe somebody else is going to take a
look at them too,
they look very mature. Is this code used in production already anywhere? (and
BTW the numbers are quite impressive)
1. We have full_page_writes = on/off, but Your's patch adds double_write_buffer
IMHO if we have competing solution it would be better to have something like
io_torn_pages_protection = off | full_pages | double_writes
and maybe we'll be able to add 'atomic_writes' one day.
BTW: once you stabilize the GUC, it is worth adding to postgresql.conf.sample
2. How would one know how to size double_write_buffer_size ?
2b. IMHO the patch could have enriched pg_stat_io with some
information. Please take
a look on pg_stat_io view and functions like pgstat_count_io_op_time() and
their parameters and enums there, that way we could have IOOBJECT_DWBUF maybe
and be able to say how much I/O was attributed to double-buffering, fsync()
times related to it and so on.
3. In DWBufPostCheckpoint() there's pg_usleep(1ms) just before atomic pwrites(),
but exactly why is it necessary to have this literally sched_yield(2) there?
4. In BufferSync() I have doubts if such copying is safe in loop:
page = BufHdrGetBlock(bufHdr);
memcpy(dwb_buf, page, BLCKSZ);
shouldn't there be some form of locking (BUFFER_LOCK_SHARE?)/pinning buffers?
Also it wouldn't be better if that memcpy would be guarded by the
critical section?
(START_CRIT_SECTION)
4b. There seems to be double coping: there's palloc for dwb_buf in BufferSync()
that is filled by memcpy(), and then DWBufWritePage() is called and
then again
that "page" is copied a second time using memcpy(). This seems to be done for
every checkpoint page, so may reduce benefits of this double-buffering code.
4c. Shouldn't this active waiting in DWBufWritePage() shouldn't be achieved
using spinlocks rather than pg_usleep(100us)?
5. Have you maybe verified using injection points (or gdb) if crashing
in several
places really hits that DWBufRecoverPage()? Is there a simple way
of reproducing this
to play with it? (possibly that could be good test on it's own)
6. Quick testing overview (for completeness)
- basic test without even enabling this feature complains about
postgresql.conf.sample
(test_misc/003_check_guc)
- with `PG_TEST_INITDB_EXTRA_OPTS="-c double_write_buffer=on" meson
test` I've
got 3 failures there:
* test_misc/003_check_guc (expected)
* pg_waldump/002_save_fullpage (I would say it's expected)
* pg_walinspect / pg_walinspect/regress (I would say it's expected)
I haven't really got it up and running for real, but at least that's
some start and I hope that helps.

Subject: [PATCH v1 1/4] Add double write buffer (DWB) for torn page protection
Implement a double write buffer mechanism as an alternative to full page
writes (FPW). When enabled, dirty pages are written to a dedicated DWB
file before being written to the data files. This provides protection
against torn pages without requiring full page images in WAL.
Key benefits over FPW:
- Dramatically reduced WAL volume (up to 98% reduction in IO-bound workloads)
- Lower network bandwidth for replication
- Faster WAL replay during recovery
The implementation includes:
- New GUC parameters: double_write_buffer (bool) and
double_write_buffer_size (int, default 64MB)
- DWB files stored in pg_dwbuf/ directory
- Integration with checkpoint for proper flush ordering
- Per-process file descriptor management for correctness
Performance testing shows:
- WAL reduction: 270GB -> 4.6GB (58x reduction) in IO-bound scenarios
- TPS overhead: ~1% compared to no protection
- Comparable TPS to FPW with vastly reduced WAL

Subject: [PATCH v1 2/4] Fix DWB process handling and skip FPW when DWB enabled
- Skip full page writes when double write buffer is enabled since DWB
already provides torn page protection
- Fix file descriptor handling after fork by tracking process ID
- Initialize DWB in checkpointer process
- Improve batch synchronization in DWBufPostCheckpoint
- Add DWB shared memory initialization in ipci.c

Subject: [PATCH v1 4/4] Fix critical correctness bugs in double write buffer
(DWB)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
Fix several issues that made the DWB feature unsafe:
1. CRC computation: Move crc to first field of DWBufPageSlot and zero
it before computing, so the stale crc value is excluded from the
CRC range. Previously verification would always fail.
2. Fsync before data file writes: DWB pages must be durable before
data file writes begin. Add per-page DWBufFlushFile() for
non-checkpoint writes (bgwriter/backend eviction), and batch
DWBufFlush() in BufferSync for checkpoint writes.
3. Checkpoint integration: Wire up DWBufPreCheckpoint/PostCheckpoint
calls in CreateCheckPoint and CreateRestartPoint — they existed
but were never called.
4. Recovery path: Wire up DWBufRecoveryInit in StartupXLOG to build
recovery hash, DWBufRecoverPage in buffer_readv_complete to
recover torn pages, and DWBufRecoveryFinish after FinishWalRecovery.
5. Backup FPW: Keep full_page_writes enabled when a backup is running
even with DWB on, since pg_basebackup doesn't copy DWB files.
6. Slot overflow: Add bounds check when write_pos >= num_slots,
flush and wrap instead of overwriting valid data.
7. PostCheckpoint race: Add resetting flag to prevent concurrent
DWBufWritePage calls during position reset.
8. Build/initdb: Add dwbuf.c to meson.build, pg_dwbuf to initdb
subdirs array.
9. Minor: Remove unused old_batch_id, fix %ld format string cast.

I'm somewhat less of a noob here, so I'll confirm that this proposal
has basically zero chance of getting in, at least for the v19 cycle.
This isn't so much about the proposal itself, but more in that if you
were trying to pick the worst time of year to submit a large,
complicated feature into the postgresql workflow, this would be really
close to that.
However, I have also wondered about this specific trade-off (FPW vs
DWB) for years, but until now, the level of effort required to produce
a meaningful POC that would confirm if the idea was worth pursuing was
so large that I think it stopped anyone from even trying. So,
hopefully everyone will realize that we don't live in that world
anymore, and as a side benefit, apparently the idea is worth pursuing.

So, I haven't looked at the code itself; tbh honest I am a bit too
paranoid to dive into generated code that would seem to carry some
likely level of legal risk around potential reuse of GPL/proprietary
code it might be based on (either in its original training, inference,
or context used for generation. Yeah, I know innodb isn't written in
C, but still). That said, I did have some feedback and questions on
the proposal itself, and some suggestions for how to move things
forward.
I would be helpful if you could provide a little more information on
the system you are running these benchmarks on, specifically for me
the underlying OS/Filesystem/hardware, and I'd even be interested in
the build flags. I'd also be interested to know if you did any kind of
crash safety testing... while it is great to have improved
performance, presumably that isn't actually the primary point of these
subsystems. It'd also be worth knowing if you tested this on any
systems with replication (physical or logical) since we'd need to
understand those potential downstream effects. I'm tempted to say you
should have an AI generate some pgbench scripts. Granted its early and
fine if you have done any of this, but I imagine we'll need to look at
it eventually.

While Jakub is right that the convention is to send patches, that
convention is based on a manual development model, not an agentic
development model. While there is no official project policy on this,
IMHO the thing we really need from you is not the code output, but the
prompts that were used to generate the code. There are plenty of folks
who have access to claude that could then use those prompts to
"recreate with enough proximity" the work you had claude do, and that
process would also allow for additional verification and reduction of
any legal concerns or concerns about investing further human
time/energy. (No offense, but as you are not a regular contributor,
you could analogize this to when third parties do large code dumps and
say "here's a contribution, it's up to you to figure out how to use
it". Ideally we want other folks to be able to pick up the project and
continue with it, even if it means recreating it, and that works best
if we have the underlying prompts).
The claude code configuration file is a good start, but certainly not
enough. Probably the ideal here would be full session logs, although a
developer-diary would probably also suffice. I'm kind of guessing here
because I don't know the scope of the prompts involved or how you were
interacting with Claude in order to get where you are now, but those
seem like the more obvious tools for work of this size whose intention
is to be open.

HI Robert
In fact, this was discussed over a decade ago.（
https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/1962493974.656458.1327703514780.JavaMail.root%40zimbra-prod-mb...
）,In practice, this mainly stems from the significant overhead introduced
by FPW. The community has adopted various approaches to mitigate its
impact, including compressing FPW and extending checkpoint intervals.
Nowadays, waiting for the primary to recover instead of performing an HA
switchover is generally considered unacceptable.
Thanks
