* [PATCH v17] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is
happening. Actually if recovery meets a record with length = 0, that
usually means it finished applying all available WAL records.

Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL". Instead, raise
the error level for other kind of WAL failure to WARNING.

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is happening.
Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL".

* [PATCH v12] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is
happening. Actually if recovery meets a record with length = 0, that
usually means it finished applying all available WAL records.

Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL". Instead, raise
the error level for other kind of WAL failure to WARNING.

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is
happening. Actually if recovery meets a record with length = 0, that
usually means it finished applying all available WAL records.

Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL". Instead, raise
the error level for other kind of WAL failure to WARNING.

* [PATCH v7] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary
@ 2020-02-28 06:52 Kyotaro Horiguchi <horikyota.ntt@gmail.com>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 39+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-02-28 06:52 UTC (permalink / raw)

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is
happening. Actually if recovery meets a record with length = 0, that
usually means it finished applying all available WAL records.

Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL". Instead, raise
the error level for other kind of WAL failure to WARNING.

* [PATCH v16] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary
@ 2020-02-28 06:52 Kyotaro Horiguchi <horikyota.ntt@gmail.com>

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-02-28 06:52 UTC (permalink / raw)

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is
happening. Actually if recovery meets a record with length = 0, that
usually means it finished applying all available WAL records.

Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL". Instead, raise
the error level for other kind of WAL failure to WARNING.

* [PATCH v15] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary
@ 2020-02-28 06:52 Kyotaro Horiguchi <horikyota.ntt@gmail.com>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 39+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-02-28 06:52 UTC (permalink / raw)

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is
happening. Actually if recovery meets a record with length = 0, that
usually means it finished applying all available WAL records.

Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL". Instead, raise
the error level for other kind of WAL failure to WARNING.

* [PATCH v8] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary
@ 2020-02-28 06:52 Kyotaro Horiguchi <horikyota.ntt@gmail.com>

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-02-28 06:52 UTC (permalink / raw)

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is
happening. Actually if recovery meets a record with length = 0, that
usually means it finished applying all available WAL records.

Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL". Instead, raise
the error level for other kind of WAL failure to WARNING.

* [PATCH v9] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is
happening. Actually if recovery meets a record with length = 0, that
usually means it finished applying all available WAL records.

Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL". Instead, raise
the error level for other kind of WAL failure to WARNING.

* [PATCH v5] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary
@ 2020-02-28 06:52 Kyotaro Horiguchi <horikyota.ntt@gmail.com>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 39+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-02-28 06:52 UTC (permalink / raw)

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is
happening. Actually if recovery meets a record with length = 0, that
usually means it finished applying all available WAL records.

Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL". Instead raise
the error level for other kind of WAL failure to WARNING.

* [PATCH v14] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary
@ 2020-02-28 06:52 Kyotaro Horiguchi <horikyota.ntt@gmail.com>

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-02-28 06:52 UTC (permalink / raw)

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is
happening. Actually if recovery meets a record with length = 0, that
usually means it finished applying all available WAL records.

Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL". Instead, raise
the error level for other kind of WAL failure to WARNING.

* [PATCH v3] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is happening.
Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL".

* [PATCH v13] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary
@ 2020-02-28 06:52 Kyotaro Horiguchi <horikyota.ntt@gmail.com>

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-02-28 06:52 UTC (permalink / raw)

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is
happening. Actually if recovery meets a record with length = 0, that
usually means it finished applying all available WAL records.

Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL". Instead, raise
the error level for other kind of WAL failure to WARNING.

* [PATCH v6] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary
@ 2020-02-28 06:52 Kyotaro Horiguchi <horikyota.ntt@gmail.com>

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is
happening. Actually if recovery meets a record with length = 0, that
usually means it finished applying all available WAL records.

Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL". Instead raise
the error level for other kind of WAL failure to WARNING.

* [PATCH v18] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary
@ 2020-02-28 06:52 Kyotaro Horiguchi <horikyota.ntt@gmail.com>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 39+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2020-02-28 06:52 UTC (permalink / raw)

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is
happening. Actually if recovery meets a record with length = 0, that
usually means it finished applying all available WAL records.

Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL". Instead, raise
the error level for other kind of WAL failure to WARNING.

* [PATCH] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary
@ 2022-07-07 02:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <horikyota.ntt@gmail.com>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 39+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2022-07-07 02:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is
happening. Actually if recovery meets a record with length = 0, that
usually means it finished applying all available WAL records.

Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL". Instead, raise
the error level for other kind of WAL failure to WARNING.

* [PATCH] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary
@ 2022-07-07 02:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <horikyota.ntt@gmail.com>

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2022-07-07 02:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is
happening. Actually if recovery meets a record with length = 0, that
usually means it finished applying all available WAL records.

Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL". Instead, raise
the error level for other kind of WAL failure to WARNING.

* [PATCH v19] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary
@ 2022-07-07 02:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <horikyota.ntt@gmail.com>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 39+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2022-07-07 02:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is
happening. Actually if recovery meets a record with length = 0, that
usually means it finished applying all available WAL records.

Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL". Instead, raise
the error level for other kind of WAL failure to WARNING.

* [PATCH v21] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary
@ 2022-07-07 02:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <horikyota.ntt@gmail.com>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 39+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2022-07-07 02:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is
happening. Actually if recovery meets a record with length = 0, that
usually means it finished applying all available WAL records.

Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL". Instead, raise
the error level for other kind of WAL failure to WARNING.

* [PATCH] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary
@ 2022-11-15 04:41 Kyotaro Horiguchi <horikyota.ntt@gmail.com>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 39+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2022-11-15 04:41 UTC (permalink / raw)

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is
happening. Actually if recovery meets a record with length = 0, that
usually means it finished applying all available WAL records.

Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL". Instead, raise
the error level for other kind of WAL failure to WARNING.

* [PATCH v22] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary
@ 2022-11-15 04:41 Kyotaro Horiguchi <horikyota.ntt@gmail.com>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 39+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2022-11-15 04:41 UTC (permalink / raw)

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is
happening. Actually if recovery meets a record with length = 0, that
usually means it finished applying all available WAL records.

Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL". Instead, raise
the error level for other kind of WAL failure to WARNING.

* [PATCH] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary
@ 2022-11-15 04:41 Kyotaro Horiguchi <horikyota.ntt@gmail.com>

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2022-11-15 04:41 UTC (permalink / raw)

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is
happening. Actually if recovery meets a record with length = 0, that
usually means it finished applying all available WAL records.

Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL". Instead, raise
the error level for other kind of WAL failure to WARNING.

* [PATCH v22] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary
@ 2022-11-15 04:41 Kyotaro Horiguchi <horikyota.ntt@gmail.com>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 39+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2022-11-15 04:41 UTC (permalink / raw)

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is
happening. Actually if recovery meets a record with length = 0, that
usually means it finished applying all available WAL records.

Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL". Instead, raise
the error level for other kind of WAL failure to WARNING.

* [PATCH v23] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary
@ 2022-11-30 02:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <horikyota.ntt@gmail.com>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 39+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2022-11-30 02:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is
happening. Actually if recovery meets a record with length = 0, that
usually means it finished applying all available WAL records.

Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL". Instead, raise
the error level for other kind of WAL failure to WARNING.

* [PATCH v23] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary
@ 2022-11-30 02:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <horikyota.ntt@gmail.com>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 39+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2022-11-30 02:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is
happening. Actually if recovery meets a record with length = 0, that
usually means it finished applying all available WAL records.

Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL". Instead, raise
the error level for other kind of WAL failure to WARNING.

* [PATCH v24] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary
@ 2022-11-30 02:51 Kyotaro Horiguchi <horikyota.ntt@gmail.com>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 39+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2022-11-30 02:51 UTC (permalink / raw)

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is
happening. Actually if recovery meets a record with length = 0, that
usually means it finished applying all available WAL records.

Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL". Instead, raise
the error level for other kind of WAL failure to WARNING.  To make
sure that the detection is correct, this patch checks if all trailing
bytes in the same page are zeroed in that case.

* [PATCH v28] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary
@ 2023-03-07 05:55 Kyotaro Horiguchi <horikyota.ntt@gmail.com>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 39+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2023-03-07 05:55 UTC (permalink / raw)

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is
happening. Actually if recovery meets a record with length = 0, that
usually means it finished applying all available WAL records.

Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL". Instead, raise
the error level for other kind of WAL failure to WARNING.  To make
sure that the detection is correct, this patch checks if all trailing
bytes in the same page are zeroed in that case.

* [PATCH v28] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary
@ 2023-03-07 05:55 Kyotaro Horiguchi <horikyota.ntt@gmail.com>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 39+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2023-03-07 05:55 UTC (permalink / raw)

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is
happening. Actually if recovery meets a record with length = 0, that
usually means it finished applying all available WAL records.

Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL". Instead, raise
the error level for other kind of WAL failure to WARNING.  To make
sure that the detection is correct, this patch checks if all trailing
bytes in the same page are zeroed in that case.

* [PATCH v28] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary
@ 2023-03-07 05:55 Kyotaro Horiguchi <horikyota.ntt@gmail.com>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 39+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2023-03-07 05:55 UTC (permalink / raw)

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is
happening. Actually if recovery meets a record with length = 0, that
usually means it finished applying all available WAL records.

Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL". Instead, raise
the error level for other kind of WAL failure to WARNING.  To make
sure that the detection is correct, this patch checks if all trailing
bytes in the same page are zeroed in that case.

* [PATCH v25] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary
@ 2023-03-07 05:55 Kyotaro Horiguchi <horikyota.ntt@gmail.com>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 39+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2023-03-07 05:55 UTC (permalink / raw)

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is
happening. Actually if recovery meets a record with length = 0, that
usually means it finished applying all available WAL records.

Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL". Instead, raise
the error level for other kind of WAL failure to WARNING.  To make
sure that the detection is correct, this patch checks if all trailing
bytes in the same page are zeroed in that case.

* [PATCH v29] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary
@ 2023-03-07 05:55 Kyotaro Horiguchi <horikyota.ntt@gmail.com>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 39+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2023-03-07 05:55 UTC (permalink / raw)

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is
happening. Actually if recovery meets a record with length = 0, that
usually means it finished applying all available WAL records.

Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL". Instead, raise
the error level for other kind of WAL failure to WARNING.  To make
sure that the detection is correct, this patch checks if all trailing
bytes in the same page are zeroed in that case.

* [PATCH v27] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary
@ 2023-03-07 05:55 Kyotaro Horiguchi <horikyota.ntt@gmail.com>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 39+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2023-03-07 05:55 UTC (permalink / raw)

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is
happening. Actually if recovery meets a record with length = 0, that
usually means it finished applying all available WAL records.

Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL". Instead, raise
the error level for other kind of WAL failure to WARNING.  To make
sure that the detection is correct, this patch checks if all trailing
bytes in the same page are zeroed in that case.

* [PATCH v27] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary
@ 2023-03-07 05:55 Kyotaro Horiguchi <horikyota.ntt@gmail.com>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 39+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2023-03-07 05:55 UTC (permalink / raw)

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is
happening. Actually if recovery meets a record with length = 0, that
usually means it finished applying all available WAL records.

Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL". Instead, raise
the error level for other kind of WAL failure to WARNING.  To make
sure that the detection is correct, this patch checks if all trailing
bytes in the same page are zeroed in that case.

* [PATCH v29] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary
@ 2023-03-07 05:55 Kyotaro Horiguchi <horikyota.ntt@gmail.com>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 39+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2023-03-07 05:55 UTC (permalink / raw)

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is
happening. Actually if recovery meets a record with length = 0, that
usually means it finished applying all available WAL records.

Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL". Instead, raise
the error level for other kind of WAL failure to WARNING.  To make
sure that the detection is correct, this patch checks if all trailing
bytes in the same page are zeroed in that case.

* [PATCH v29] Make End-Of-Recovery error less scary
@ 2023-03-07 05:55 Kyotaro Horiguchi <horikyota.ntt@gmail.com>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 39+ messages in thread

From: Kyotaro Horiguchi @ 2023-03-07 05:55 UTC (permalink / raw)

When recovery in any type ends, we see a bit scary error message like
"invalid record length" that suggests something serious is
happening. Actually if recovery meets a record with length = 0, that
usually means it finished applying all available WAL records.

Make this message less scary as "reached end of WAL". Instead, raise
the error level for other kind of WAL failure to WARNING.  To make
sure that the detection is correct, this patch checks if all trailing
bytes in the same page are zeroed in that case.

* [PATCH v53 4/7] 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. Currently, REPACK takes the
simple approach and acquires the exclusive lock in the beginning.

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 relation.

Second, logical decoding is used to capture the data changes done by
applications during the copying (i.e. changes not yet committed from the
perspective of 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 and before we swap the files.)

While the "concurrent data" changes are applied at specific stages (we cannot
do that until the intial copy is finished and indexes are built), a background
worker performs the decoding all the time. This way we minimize the amount of
not-yet-decoded WAL, so that archiving / recycling of WAL segments is not
delayed much. The decoded changes are written to files and passed to the
backed performing REPACK.

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.

The WAL records produced by running DML commands on the new relation are
intentionally not fed to the logical decoding system. Doing so would introduce
significant overhead, and - as the new relation is never available for logical
replication - it would be useless.

  *    REPACK a table; formerly known as CLUSTER.  VACUUM FULL also uses
  *    parts of this code.
  *
+ * 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.  A bgworker
+ * consumes WAL while the initial copy is ongoing (to prevent excessive WAL
+ * from being reserved), and accumulates the changes in a file.  Once the
+ * initial copy is complete, we read the changes from the file 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.
