txid - export transaction IDs to user level
===========================================
The goal is to make PostgreSQL's internal transaction ID and snapshot
data usable externally. This allows very efficient queue
implementation done inside database.
[towrite: what snapshot means]
The module defines type txid_snapshot and following functions:
txid_current() returns int8
Current transaction ID.
txid_current_snapshot() returns txid_snapshot
Current snapshot.
txid_snapshot_xmin( snap ) returns int8
Smallest TXID in snapshot. TXID's smaller than this
are all visible in snapshot.
txid_snapshot_xmax( snap ) returns int8
Largest TXID in snapshot. TXID's starting from this one are
all invisible in snapshot.
txid_snapshot_xip( snap ) setof int8
List of in-progress TXID's in snapshot, that are invisible.
Values are between xmin (inclusive) and xmax (exclusive).
txid_visible_in_snapshot(id, snap) returns bool
Is TXID visible in snapshot?
Fetching events
---------------
Lets say there is following event table:
CREATE TABLE events (
ev_txid int8 not null default txid_current(),
ev_data text
);
CREATE INDEX ev_txid_idx ON events (ev_txid);
Then event between 2 snapshots snap1 and snap2 can be fetched
with followign query:
SELECT ev_data FROM events
WHERE ev_txid >= txid_snapshot_xmin(:snap1)
AND ev_txid < txid_snapshot_xmax(:snap2)
AND NOT txid_visible_in_snapshot(ev_txid, :snap1)
AND txid_visible_in_snapshot(ev_txid, :snap2);
This is the simplest query but it has problem if there are long
transactions running - the txid_snapshot_xmin(snap1) will stay low
and the range will get very large.
This can be fixed by fetching only snap1.xmax ... snap1.xmax by range and
fetching possible txids below snap1.xmax explicitly:
SELECT ev_data FROM events
WHERE ((ev_txid >= txid_snapshot_xmax(:snap1) AND ev_txid < txid_snapshot_xmax(:snap2))
OR
(ev_txid IN (SELECT * FROM txid_snapshot_xip(:snap1))))
AND NOT txid_visible_in_snapshot(ev_txid, :snap1)
AND txid_visible_in_snapshot(ev_txid, :snap2);
Note that although the above queries work, PostgreSQL fails to
plan them efficiently. For actual usage the values for txid_snapshot_xmin,
txid_snapshot_xmax and txid_snapshot_xip should be filled in directly,
only then will they use index.
There are few more optimizations possible, like:
- Picking out only TXIDs that were actually committed between snap1 and snap2.
- Lowering the range from txid_snapshot_xmax(snap1) to decrease the list if TXIDs to be fetched separately.
To see example code for that it's best to see pgq.batch_event_sql() function in Skytools.
http://pgfoundry.org/projects/skytools/
Dumping and restoring data containing TXIDs.
--------------------------------------------
When reloading TXID data you will typically want to be sure that the current
XID counter is beyond the reloaded data. The easiest way to do this is to
increase the XID epoch to beyond the largest one in the input data.
You can look at current epoch with queries such as:
SELECT MAX(txid) >> 32 as epoch FROM ...;
Epoch can be changed with pg_resetxlog command:
pg_resetxlog -e NEWEPOCH DATADIR
Database needs to be shut down for that moment.
