The comment matches 0005, but I had to adjust it for 0004 (no background
worker there). Also, the worker writes the changes to a file rather than
tuplestore (storage/sharedfileset.h seems to me an easier way to pass the data
from one process to another) Besides that I made the following changes:

"bloat is greatly reduced" -> "bloat is eliminated"

and

"table, and to cope with" -> "table. To cope with"

ok, I'll get back to the earlier parts of the set, including this, in the
beginning of January. Regarding indexes, one thing I've noticed recently that
they get locked in build_new_indexes(), but maybe it should happen earlier.

ok. Do you mean only the file or the functions as well? (I'm not going to do
that now, w/o that discussion.)


Attached here is a new version of the patch set. Its rebased and extended one
more time: 0006 is a PoC of the "snapshot resetting" technique, as discussed
elsewhere with Mihail Nikalayeu and Matthias van de Meent. The way snapshot
are generated here is different though: we need the snapshots from logical
replication's snapbuild.c, not those from procarray.c. More information is in
the commit message.

I do not insist that this should go to PG 19, just needed some confidence that
it's doable, as well as some feedback. There are no tests for this yet, but
I've played with it for a while and checked the behavior using debugger. I'm
curious to hear if the design is sound.

While working on that, I fixed some problems in 0004 and 0005 too. It
shouldn't be difficult to identify them using git, if needed.

Even if 0005 and 0006 won't land in PG19, these parts show that some
refactoring may be needed regarding the AM callback
table_relation_copy_for_cluster(). The parts 0004, 0005 and 0006 each change
the argument list. It wouldn't be perfect if both PG 19 and 20 changed the
API. I think we should reconsider which arguments are generic and which are
rather AM-specific. Maybe we should then add an opaque pointer (void *) for
the AM-specific information. REPACK could then use it to pass the
CONCURRENTLY-specific information.

I'm now going to prioritize the parts <= 0004.

Subject: [PATCH 4/6] Add CONCURRENTLY option to REPACK command.

The REPACK command copies the relation data into a new file, creates new
indexes and eventually swaps the files. To make sure that the old file does
not change during the copying, the relation is locked in an exclusive mode,
which prevents applications from both reading and writing. (To keep the data
consistent, we'd only need to prevent the applications from writing, but even
reading needs to be blocked before we can swap the files - otherwise some
applications could continue using the old file. Since we should not request a
stronger lock without releasing the weaker one first, we acquire the exclusive
lock in the beginning and keep it till the end of the processing.)

This patch introduces an alternative workflow, which only requires the
exclusive lock when the relation (and index) files are being swapped.
(Supposedly, the swapping should be pretty fast.) On the other hand, when we
copy the data to the new file, we allow applications to read from the relation
and even to write to it.

First, we scan the relation using a "historic snapshot", and insert all the
tuples satisfying this snapshot into the new file.

Second, logical decoding is used to capture the data changes done by
applications during the copying (i.e. changes that do not satisfy the historic
snapshot mentioned above), and those are applied to the new file before we
acquire the exclusive lock that we need to swap the files. (Of course, more
data changes can take place while we are waiting for the lock - these will be
applied to the new file after we have acquired the lock, before we swap the
files.)

Since the logical decoding system, during its startup, waits until all the
transactions which already have XID assigned have finished, there is a risk of
deadlock if a transaction that already changed anything in the database tries
to acquire a conflicting lock on the table REPACK CONCURRENTLY is working
on. As an example, consider transaction running CREATE INDEX command on the
table that is being REPACKed CONCURRENTLY. On the other hand, DML commands
(INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE) are not a problem as their lock does not conflict
with REPACK CONCURRENTLY.

The current approach is that we accept the risk. If we tried to avoid it, it'd
be necessary to unlock the table before the logical decoding is setup and lock
it again afterwards. Such temporary unlocking would imply re-checking if the
table still meets all the requirements for REPACK CONCURRENTLY.

Like the existing implementation of REPACK, the variant with the CONCURRENTLY
option also requires an extra space for the new relation and index files
(which coexist with the old files for some time). In addition, the
CONCURRENTLY option might introduce a lag in releasing WAL segments for
archiving / recycling. This is due to the decoding of the data changes done by
applications concurrently. When copying the table contents into the new file,
we check the lag periodically. If it exceeds the size of a WAL segment, we
decode all the available WAL before resuming the copying. (Of course, the
changes are not applied until the whole table contents is copied.) A
background worker might be a better approach for the decoding - let's consider
implementing it in the future.

The WAL records produced by running DML commands on the new relation do not
contain enough information to be processed by the logical decoding system. All
we need from the new relation is the file (relfilenode), while the actual
relation is eventually dropped. Thus there is no point in replaying the DMLs
anywhere.

- *	  CLUSTER a table on an index.  This is now also used for VACUUM FULL and
- *	  REPACK.
+ *		Implementation of REPACK [CONCURRENTLY], also known as CLUSTER and
+ *		VACUUM FULL.
+ *
+ * There are two somewhat different ways to rewrite a table.  In non-
+ * concurrent mode, it's easy: take AccessExclusiveLock, create a new
+ * transient relation, copy the tuples over to the relfilenode of the new
+ * relation, swap the relfilenodes, then drop the old relation.
+ *
+ * In concurrent mode, we lock the table with only ShareUpdateExclusiveLock,
+ * then do an initial copy as above.  However, while the tuples are being
+ * copied, concurrent transactions could modify the table. To cope with those
+ * changes, we rely on logical decoding to obtain them from WAL.  The changes
+ * are accumulated in a tuplestore.  Once the initial copy is complete, we
+ * read the changes from the tuplestore and re-apply them on the new heap.
+ * Then we upgrade our ShareUpdateExclusiveLock to AccessExclusiveLock and
+ * swap the relfilenodes.  This way, the time we hold a strong lock on the
+ * table is much reduced, and the bloat is eliminated.
  *
  * There is hardly anything left of Paul Brown's original implementation...

Subject: [PATCH 6/6] Use multiple snapshots to copy the data.

REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) does not prevent applications from using the table that
is being processed, however it can prevent the xmin horizon from advancing and
thus restrict VACUUM for the whole database. This patch adds the ability to
use particular snapshot only for certain range of pages. Each time that number
of pages is processed, a new snapshot is built, which supposedly has its xmin
higher than the previous snapshot.

The data copying works as follows:

  1. Have the logical decoding system build a snapshot S0 for range R0 at
     LSN0. This snapshot sees all the data changes whose commit records have
     LSN < LSN0.

  2. Copy the pages in that range to the new relation. The changes not visible
     to the snapshot (because their transactions are still running) will
     appear in the output of the logical decoding system as soon as their
     commit records appear in WAL.

  3. Perform logical decoding of all changes we find in WAL for the table
     we're repacking, put them aside and remember that out of these we can
     only apply those that affect the range R0 in the old
     relation. (Naturally, we cannot apply ones that belong to other pages
     because it's impossible to UPDATE / DELETE a row in the new relation if
     it hasn't been copied yet.) Once the decoding is done, consider LSN1 to
     be the position of the end of the last WAL record decoded.

  4. Build a new snapshot S1 at position LSN1, i.e. one that sees all the data
     whose commit records are at WAL positions < LSN1. Use this snapshot to
     copy the range of pages R1.

  5. Perform logical decoding like in step 3, but remember, that out of this
     next set, only changes belonging to ranges R0 *and* R1 in the old table
     can be applied.

  6. etc

Note that the changes decoded above should not be applied to the new relation
until the whole relation has been copied. The point is that we need "identity
index" to apply UPDATE and DELETE statements, and bulk creation of indexes on
the already copied heap is probably better than retail insertions during the
copying.

Special attention needs to be paid to UPDATES that span page ranges. For
example, if the old tuple is in range R0, but the new tuple is in R1, and R1
hasn't been copied yet, we only DELETE the old version from the new
relation. The new version will be handled during processing of range R1. The
snapshot S1 will be based on WAL position following that UPDATE, so it'll see
the new tuple if its transaction's commit record is at WAL position lower than
the position where we built the snapshot. On the other hand, if the commit
record appears at higher position than the that of the snapshot, the
corresponding INSERT will be decoded and replayed sometime later: once the
scan of R1 started, changes of tuples belonging to it are no longer filtered
out.

Likewise, if the old tuple is in range R1 (not yet copied) but the new tuple
is in R0, we only perform INSERT on the new relation. The deletion of the old
version will either be visible to the snapshot S1 (i.e. the snapshot won't see
the old version), or replayed later.

This approach introduces one limitation though: if the USING INDEX clause is
specified, an explicit sort is always used. Index scan wouldn't work because
it does not return the tuples sorted by CTID. That way we wouldn't be able to
split the copying into ranges of pages. I'm not sure it's serious. If REPACK
runs concurrently and does not restrict VACUUM, the execution time should not
be critical.

A new GUC repack_snapshot_after can be used to set the number of pages per
snapshot. It's currently classified as DEVELOPER_OPTIONS and may be replaced
by a constant after enough evaluation is done.

Subject: [PATCH 1/6] Add REPACK command
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

REPACK absorbs the functionality of VACUUM FULL and CLUSTER in a single
command.  Because this functionality is completely different from
regular VACUUM, having it separate from VACUUM makes it easier for users
to understand; as for CLUSTER, the term is heavily overloaded in the
IT world and even in Postgres itself, so it's good that we can avoid it.

This also adds pg_repackdb, a new utility that can invoke the new
commands.  This is heavily based on vacuumdb.

+    to less than 100% can aid in preserving cluster ordering during updates,
+    since updated rows are kept on the same page if enough space is available
+    there.)
+   </para>
+
+   <para>
+    In cases where you are accessing single rows randomly within a table, the
+    actual order of the data in the table is unimportant. However, if you tend
+    to access some data more than others, and there is an index that groups
+    them together, you will benefit from using clustering.  If
+    you are requesting a range of indexed values from a table, or a single
+    indexed value that has multiple rows that match,
+    <command>REPACK</command> will help because once the index identifies the
+    table page for the first row that matches, all other rows that match are
+    probably already on the same table page, and so you save disk accesses and
+    speed up the query.
+   </para>
+
+   <para>
+    <command>REPACK</command> can re-sort the table using either an index scan
+    on the specified index (if the index is a b-tree), or a sequential scan
+    followed by sorting.  It will attempt to choose the method that will be
+    faster, based on planner cost parameters and available statistical
+    information.
+   </para>
+
+   <para>
+    Because the planner records statistics about the ordering of tables, it is
+    advisable to
+    run <link linkend="sql-analyze"><command>ANALYZE</command></link> on the
+    newly repacked table.  Otherwise, the planner might make poor choices of
+    query plans.

+
+   <para>
+    When an index scan or a sequential scan without sort is used, a temporary
+    copy of the table is created that contains the table data in the index
+    order.  Temporary copies of each index on the table are created as well.
+    Therefore, you need free space on disk at least equal to the sum of the
+    table size and the index sizes.
+   </para>
+
+   <para>
+    When a sequential scan and sort is used, a temporary sort file is also
+    created, so that the peak temporary space requirement is as much as double
+    the table size, plus the index sizes.  This method is often faster than
+    the index scan method, but if the disk space requirement is intolerable,

Subject: [PATCH 2/6] Refactor index_concurrently_create_copy() for use with
 REPACK (CONCURRENTLY).

This patch moves the code to index_create_copy() and adds a "concurrently"
parameter so it can be used by REPACK (CONCURRENTLY).

With the CONCURRENTLY option, REPACK cannot simply swap the heap file and
rebuild its indexes. Instead, it needs to build a separate set of indexes
(including system catalog entries) *before* the actual swap, to reduce the
time AccessExclusiveLock needs to be held for.

Subject: [PATCH 4/6] Add CONCURRENTLY option to REPACK command.

The REPACK command copies the relation data into a new file, creates new
indexes and eventually swaps the files. To make sure that the old file does
not change during the copying, the relation is locked in an exclusive mode,
which prevents applications from both reading and writing. (To keep the data
consistent, we'd only need to prevent the applications from writing, but even
reading needs to be blocked before we can swap the files - otherwise some
applications could continue using the old file. Since we should not request a
stronger lock without releasing the weaker one first, we acquire the exclusive
lock in the beginning and keep it till the end of the processing.)

This patch introduces an alternative workflow, which only requires the
exclusive lock when the relation (and index) files are being swapped.
(Supposedly, the swapping should be pretty fast.) On the other hand, when we
copy the data to the new file, we allow applications to read from the relation
and even to write to it.

First, we scan the relation using a "historic snapshot", and insert all the
tuples satisfying this snapshot into the new file.

Second, logical decoding is used to capture the data changes done by
applications during the copying (i.e. changes that do not satisfy the historic
snapshot mentioned above), and those are applied to the new file before we
acquire the exclusive lock that we need to swap the files. (Of course, more
data changes can take place while we are waiting for the lock - these will be
applied to the new file after we have acquired the lock, before we swap the
files.)

Since the logical decoding system, during its startup, waits until all the
transactions which already have XID assigned have finished, there is a risk of
deadlock if a transaction that already changed anything in the database tries
to acquire a conflicting lock on the table REPACK CONCURRENTLY is working
on. As an example, consider transaction running CREATE INDEX command on the
table that is being REPACKed CONCURRENTLY. On the other hand, DML commands
(INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE) are not a problem as their lock does not conflict
with REPACK CONCURRENTLY.

The current approach is that we accept the risk. If we tried to avoid it, it'd
be necessary to unlock the table before the logical decoding is setup and lock
it again afterwards. Such temporary unlocking would imply re-checking if the
table still meets all the requirements for REPACK CONCURRENTLY.

Like the existing implementation of REPACK, the variant with the CONCURRENTLY
option also requires an extra space for the new relation and index files
(which coexist with the old files for some time). In addition, the
CONCURRENTLY option might introduce a lag in releasing WAL segments for
archiving / recycling. This is due to the decoding of the data changes done by
applications concurrently. When copying the table contents into the new file,
we check the lag periodically. If it exceeds the size of a WAL segment, we
decode all the available WAL before resuming the copying. (Of course, the
changes are not applied until the whole table contents is copied.) A
background worker might be a better approach for the decoding - let's consider
implementing it in the future.

The WAL records produced by running DML commands on the new relation do not
contain enough information to be processed by the logical decoding system. All
we need from the new relation is the file (relfilenode), while the actual
relation is eventually dropped. Thus there is no point in replaying the DMLs
anywhere.

  * cluster.c
- *	  CLUSTER a table on an index.  This is now also used for VACUUM FULL and
- *	  REPACK.
+ *		Implementation of REPACK [CONCURRENTLY], also known as CLUSTER and
+ *		VACUUM FULL.
+ *
+ * There are two somewhat different ways to rewrite a table.  In non-
+ * concurrent mode, it's easy: take AccessExclusiveLock, create a new
+ * transient relation, copy the tuples over to the relfilenode of the new
+ * relation, swap the relfilenodes, then drop the old relation.
+ *
+ * In concurrent mode, we lock the table with only ShareUpdateExclusiveLock,
+ * then do an initial copy as above.  However, while the tuples are being
+ * copied, concurrent transactions could modify the table. To cope with those
+ * changes, we rely on logical decoding to obtain them from WAL.  The changes
+ * are accumulated in a tuplestore.  Once the initial copy is complete, we
+ * read the changes from the tuplestore and re-apply them on the new heap.
+ * Then we upgrade our ShareUpdateExclusiveLock to AccessExclusiveLock and
+ * swap the relfilenodes.  This way, the time we hold a strong lock on the
+ * table is much reduced, and the bloat is eliminated.
  *
  * There is hardly anything left of Paul Brown's original implementation...

logical decoding, it has to "travel in time" back and forth and therefore it
has to invalidate system caches quite a few times. (The copying and the
decoding work with different catalog snapshots.) As the decoding worker has
separate caches, the switching is not necessary.

Without the worker, it'd also be difficult to switch between potentiallly long
running tasks like index build and WAL decoding. (No decoding during that time
at all can suspend archiving / recycling of WAL segments for some time, which
in turn may result in full disk.)

Another problem is that, after having acquired AccessExclusiveLock (in order
to swap the files), the backend needs to both decode and apply the data
changes that took place while it was waiting for the lock. With the decoding
worker, the decoding runs all the time, so the backend only needs to apply the
changes. This can reduce the time the exclusive lock is held for.

Note that the code added in order to handle ERRORs in the background worker
almost duplicates the existing code that does the same for other types of
workers (See ProcessParallelMessages() and
ProcessParallelApplyMessages()). Refactoring of the existing code might be
useful, to reduce the duplication.

From 32accb96480ddf42847ae23f30f23636d64eeb50 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Antonin Houska <ah@cybertec.at>
Date: Sat, 13 Dec 2025 19:27:18 +0100
Subject: [PATCH 6/6] Use multiple snapshots to copy the data.

REPACK (CONCURRENTLY) does not prevent applications from using the table that
is being processed, however it can prevent the xmin horizon from advancing and
thus restrict VACUUM for the whole database. This patch adds the ability to
use particular snapshot only for certain range of pages. Each time that number
of pages is processed, a new snapshot is built, which supposedly has its xmin
higher than the previous snapshot.

The data copying works as follows:

  1. Have the logical decoding system build a snapshot S0 for range R0 at
     LSN0. This snapshot sees all the data changes whose commit records have
     LSN < LSN0.

  2. Copy the pages in that range to the new relation. The changes not visible
     to the snapshot (because their transactions are still running) will
     appear in the output of the logical decoding system as soon as their
     commit records appear in WAL.

  3. Perform logical decoding of all changes we find in WAL for the table
     we're repacking, put them aside and remember that out of these we can
     only apply those that affect the range R0 in the old
     relation. (Naturally, we cannot apply ones that belong to other pages
     because it's impossible to UPDATE / DELETE a row in the new relation if
     it hasn't been copied yet.) Once the decoding is done, consider LSN1 to
     be the position of the end of the last WAL record decoded.

  4. Build a new snapshot S1 at position LSN1, i.e. one that sees all the data
     whose commit records are at WAL positions < LSN1. Use this snapshot to
     copy the range of pages R1.

  5. Perform logical decoding like in step 3, but remember, that out of this
     next set, only changes belonging to ranges R0 *and* R1 in the old table
     can be applied.

  6. etc

Note that the changes decoded above should not be applied to the new relation
until the whole relation has been copied. The point is that we need "identity
index" to apply UPDATE and DELETE statements, and bulk creation of indexes on
the already copied heap is probably better than retail insertions during the
copying.

Special attention needs to be paid to UPDATES that span page ranges. For
example, if the old tuple is in range R0, but the new tuple is in R1, and R1
hasn't been copied yet, we only DELETE the old version from the new
relation. The new version will be handled during processing of range R1. The
snapshot S1 will be based on WAL position following that UPDATE, so it'll see
the new tuple if its transaction's commit record is at WAL position lower than
the position where we built the snapshot. On the other hand, if the commit
record appears at higher position than the that of the snapshot, the
corresponding INSERT will be decoded and replayed sometime later: once the
scan of R1 started, changes of tuples belonging to it are no longer filtered
out.

Likewise, if the old tuple is in range R1 (not yet copied) but the new tuple
is in R0, we only perform INSERT on the new relation. The deletion of the old
version will either be visible to the snapshot S1 (i.e. the snapshot won't see
the old version), or replayed later.

This approach introduces one limitation though: if the USING INDEX clause is
specified, an explicit sort is always used. Index scan wouldn't work because
it does not return the tuples sorted by CTID. That way we wouldn't be able to
split the copying into ranges of pages. I'm not sure it's serious. If REPACK
runs concurrently and does not restrict VACUUM, the execution time should not
be critical.

A new GUC repack_snapshot_after can be used to set the number of pages per
snapshot. It's currently classified as DEVELOPER_OPTIONS and may be replaced
by a constant after enough evaluation is done.
