Up to now large swathes of backend code ran inside signal handlers while reading commands from the client, to allow for speedy reaction to asynchronous events. Most prominently shared invalidation and NOTIFY handling. That means that complex code like the starting/stopping of transactions is run in signal handlers... The required code was fragile and verbose, and is likely to contain bugs. That approach also severely limited what could be done while communicating with the client. As the read might be from within openssl it wasn't safely possible to trigger an error, e.g. to cancel a backend in idle-in-transaction state. We did that in some cases, namely fatal errors, nonetheless. Now that FE/BE communication in the backend employs non-blocking sockets and latches to block, we can quite simply interrupt reads from signal handlers by setting the latch. That allows us to signal an interrupted read, which is supposed to be retried after returning from within the ssl library. As signal handlers now only need to set the latch to guarantee timely interrupt processing, remove a fair amount of complicated & fragile code from async.c and sinval.c. We could now actually start to process some kinds of interrupts, like sinval ones, more often that before, but that seems better done separately. This work will hopefully allow to handle cases like being blocked by sending data, interrupting idle transactions and similar to be implemented without too much effort. In addition to allowing getting rid of ImmediateInterruptOK, that is. Author: Andres Freund Reviewed-By: Heikki Linnakangas

/*
|
|
* We support several types of shared-invalidation messages:
|
|
* * invalidate a specific tuple in a specific catcache
|
|
* * invalidate all catcache entries from a given system catalog
|
|
* * invalidate a relcache entry for a specific logical relation
|
|
* * invalidate an smgr cache entry for a specific physical relation
|
|
* * invalidate the mapped-relation mapping for a given database
|
|
* * invalidate any saved snapshot that might be used to scan a given relation
|
|
* More types could be added if needed. The message type is identified by
|
|
* the first "int8" field of the message struct. Zero or positive means a
|
|
* specific-catcache inval message (and also serves as the catcache ID field).
|
|
* Negative values identify the other message types, as per codes below.
|
|
*
|
|
* Catcache inval events are initially driven by detecting tuple inserts,
|
|
* updates and deletions in system catalogs (see CacheInvalidateHeapTuple).
|
|
* An update can generate two inval events, one for the old tuple and one for
|
|
* the new, but this is reduced to one event if the tuple's hash key doesn't
|
|
* change. Note that the inval events themselves don't actually say whether
|
|
* the tuple is being inserted or deleted. Also, since we transmit only a
|
|
* hash key, there is a small risk of unnecessary invalidations due to chance
|
|
* matches of hash keys.
|
|
*
|
|
* Note that some system catalogs have multiple caches on them (with different
|
|
* indexes). On detecting a tuple invalidation in such a catalog, separate
|
|
* catcache inval messages must be generated for each of its caches, since
|
|
* the hash keys will generally be different.
|
|
*
|
|
* Catcache, relcache, and snapshot invalidations are transactional, and so
|
|
* are sent to other backends upon commit. Internally to the generating
|
|
* backend, they are also processed at CommandCounterIncrement so that later
|
|
* commands in the same transaction see the new state. The generating backend
|
|
* also has to process them at abort, to flush out any cache state it's loaded
|
|
* from no-longer-valid entries.
|
|
*
|
|
* smgr and relation mapping invalidations are non-transactional: they are
|
|
* sent immediately when the underlying file change is made.
