Thread: pg_receivexlog and replication slots
Is there a particular reason why pg_receivexlog only supports using manually created slots but pg_recvlogical supports creating and dropping them? Wouldn't it be good for consistency there? I'm guessing it's related to not being exposed over the replication protocol? We had a discussion earlier that I remember about being able to use an "auto-drop" slot in pg_basebackup, but this would be different - this would be about creating and dropping a regular physical replication slot... -- Magnus HaganderMe: http://www.hagander.net/Work: http://www.redpill-linpro.com/

Using slots with pg_receivexlog makes quite a bit of sense, even though it's useful without it. But having the ability to create and drop (with compatible commandline arguments of course) them directly when you set it up would certainly be more convenient. >> I'm guessing it's related to not being exposed over the replication >> protocol? > > It's exposed: > create_replication_slot: > /* CREATE_REPLICATION_SLOT slot PHYSICAL */ > K_CREATE_REPLICATION_SLOT IDENT K_PHYSICAL Hmm. You know, it would help if I actually looked at a 9.4 version of the file when I check for functions of this kind :) Thanks! -- Magnus HaganderMe: http://www.hagander.net/Work: http://www.redpill-linpro.com/

Do you plan to take care of it? If, I'd be fine with backpatching it. I'm not likely to get to it right now :( Greetings, Andres Freund -- Andres Freund http://www.2ndQuadrant.com/PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Training & Services

I'm not likely to get to it right now :( Actually I came up with the same need as Magnus, but a bit later, so... Attached is a patch to support physical slot creation and drop in pg_receivexlog with the addition of new options --create and --drop. It would be nice to have that in 9.4, but I will not the one deciding that at the end :) Code has been refactored with what is already available in pg_recvlogical for the slot creation and drop.

I think that create/drop options of a slot is unnecessary. It is not different from performing pg_create_physical_replication_slot() by psql. At consistency with pg_recvlogical, do you think about --start? Initial review.

Here is a rebased patch. Looking more at the code, IDENTIFY_SYSTEM management can be unified into a single function. So I have written a newer version of the patch grouping IDENTIFY_SYSTEM call into a single function for both utilities, fixing at the same time a couple of other issues: - correct use of TimelineID in code - IDENTIFY_SYSTEM checks were incorrect (even in HEAD). The following check was done but in 9.4 this command returns 4 fields: (PQntuples(res) != 1 || PQnfields(res) < 3) That's not directly related to this patch, but making some corrections is not going to hurt..

If so can you send them as separate ones (refactor identify_system should be quite unrelated to supporting replication slots, right?), for easier review? (if not, I'll just split them apart mentally, but it's easier to review separately) On the identify_system part - my understanding of the code is that what you pass in as num_cols is the number of columns required for it to work, right? We probably need to adjust the error message as well in that case, because it's no longer what's "expected", it's what's "required"?

What is the "if necessary" supposed to refer to? Actually - why do we even care about the 3 vs 4 in RunIdentifySystem, as it never actually looks at the 4th column anyway? If we do specifically want it to fail in the case of pg_recvlogical, we really need to think up a better error message for it, and perhaps a different way of specifying it? Do we really want those Asserts? There is not a single Assert in bin/pg_basebackup today - as is the case for most things in bin/.

OK, here are 2 patches, the 2nd needing the 1st one: 1) Refactor IDENTIFY_SYSTEM and replslot create/drop APIs 2) Support for --create and --drop in pg_receivexlog > On the identify_system part - my understanding of the code is that > what you pass in as num_cols is the number of columns required for it > to work, right? The argument is I would say cross-version compatibility and consistency with the existing 9.4 code, but...

I am not sure about that, a simple error message looks fine IMO, and there is no notion of error hinting in the other client utilities as well. > There's also a note "get LSN start position if necessary", but it > tries to do it unconditionally.

I'd vote to simplify the code a bit based on the argument that the current API only looks at the 3 first columns and does not care about the 4th which is the plugin name. > Do we really want those Asserts?

(see below for the rest > of the story). I don't really see a need to that for slot specific code. The locations where we more lenient are ones where < 9.4 is ok, or a better message is following shortly afterwards. > > We probably need to adjust the error message as well > > in that case, because it's no longer what's "expected", it's what's > > "required"? > OK, changed this way. The reason for the formulation of the current error message is that it's the same across all callsites emitting it to make it easier for translators. It used to be more specific at some point and then was changed. Since these aren't expected to be hit much I don't really see a need to be very detailed. > > And we might want to include a hint about the reason (wrong version)? > I am not sure about that, a simple error message looks fine IMO, and > there is no notion of error hinting in the other client utilities as > well.

Why not return all four columns from RunIdentifySystem(), setting plugin to NULL if not available. Then the caller can error out. Greetings, Andres Freund

I have no opinion on whether we want these particular Assert() calls, but I note that using Assert() in front-end code only became possible in February of 2013, as a result of commit e1d25de35a2b1f809e8f8d7b182ce0af004f3ec9. So the lack of assertions there may not be so much because people thought it was a bad idea as that it didn't use to work. Generally, I favor the use of Assert() in front-end code in the same scenarios in which we use it in back-end code: for checks that shouldn't burden production builds but are useful during development. -- Robert Haas EnterpriseDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company

Well that was exactly why they have been added first. The assertions have been placed in some functions to check for incompatible combinations of argument values when those functions are called.

I have looked into refactoring related patch and would like

1.

This API also gets plugin if requested, so I think it is better
to mention the same in function header as well.

+ if (startpos != NULL)

Isn't it better if we try to get the LSN position only incase
startpos!=NULL (as BaseBackup don't need this)
3.

I find existing comments okay, is there a need to change
in this case? Part of the new comment mentions
"obtaining start LSN position", actually the start position is
identified as part of next function call FindStreamingStart(),
only incase it return InvalidXLogRecPtr, the value returned
by IDENTIFY_SYSTEM will be used.

Generally IdentifySystem is called as first API, but I think you
have changed its location after CreateReplicationSlot as you want
to double check the value of plugin, not sure if that is necessary or
important enough that we start calling it later.

Above call is trying to get startpos, won't it overwrite the value
passed by user (case 'I':) for startpos?

For pg_recvlogical, this move is done to reduce code redundancy, and actually it makes sense to just grab one connection in the main() code path before performing any replication commands. For pg_receivexlog, the move is done because it makes the code more consistent with pg_recvlogical, and also it is a preparatory work for the second patch that introduces the create/drop slot. Even if 2nd patch is not accepted I figured out that it would not hurt to simply grab one connection in the main code path before doing any action. > 5. > Shouldn't there be Assert instead of if (conn == NULL), as > RunIdentifySystem() is not expected to be called without connection. Fine for me.

Funny part here is that even the current code on master and REL9_4_STABLE of pg_recvlogical.c is fetching a start position when creating a replication slot that is not used as two different actions cannot be used at the same time. That's a matter of removing this line in code though: startpos = ((uint64) hi) << 32 | lo; As that's only cosmetic for 9.4, and this patch makes things more correct I guess that's fine to do nothing and just try to get this patch in. > b. > Above call is trying to get startpos, won't it overwrite the value > passed by user (case 'I':) for startpos? Yep, that's a bug. The value that user could give would have been overwritten all the time. Current code does not even care about checking startpos in IDENTIFY_SYSTEM so we're fine by just removing this part. Updated patches are attached. -- Michael

Updated comment is consistent with code, however my main point
was that in this case, I don't see much need to change existing
comment. I think this point is more related to each individual's
perspective, so if you think there is a need to update the existing
comment, then retain as it is in your patch and let Committer
take a call about it.

In pg_receivexlog, StreamLog() calls PQfinish() to close a connection
to the backend and StreamLog() is getting called in while(true) loop,
so if you just grab the connection once in main loop, the current
logic won't work. For same reasons, the current coding related to
GetConnection() in pg_receivelogical seems to be right, so it is better
not to change that as well. For the second patch (that introduces the
create/drop slot), I think it is better to do in a way similar to what
current pg_receivelogical does.

User is not allowed to give startpos with drop or create of replication
slot. It is prevented by check:
if (startpos != InvalidXLogRecPtr && (do_create_slot || do_drop_slot))
{
fprintf(stderr, _
("%s: cannot use --create or --drop together with --startpos\n"), progname);
fprintf(stderr, _
("Try \"%s --help\" for more information.\n"),
progname);
exit(1);
}
So it seems you cannot remove the startpos assignment in code.

In what sense do you think that this part of patch is better than
current code?
I think calling Identify_System as a first command makes sense
(as it is in current code) because if that fails we should not
proceed with execution of other command's.
Another point about refactoring patch is that fourth column in
Identify_System is dbname and in patch, you are referring it as
plugin which seems to be inconsistent.
Refer below code in patch:
RunIdentifySystem()
{
..
+ /* Get decoder plugin name, only available in 9.4 and newer versions */
+ if (plugin != NULL)
+
*plugin = PQnfields(res) > 3 && !PQgetisnull(res, 0, 3) ?
+ pg_strdup(PQgetvalue
(res, 0, 3)) : (char *) NULL;
..
}

I changed back the GetConnection stuff back to what is done on master. In the second patch, I added an extra call to GetConnection before the create/drop commands. >> > 6. >> > + /* Identify system, obtaining start LSN position at the same time */ >> > + if (!RunIdentifySystem(conn, >> > NULL, NULL, &startpos, &plugin_name)) >> > + disconnect_and_exit(1); >> > a. >> > Generally IdentifySystem is called as first API, but I think you >> > have changed its location after CreateReplicationSlot as you want >> > to double check the value of plugin, not sure if that is necessary or >> > important enough that we start calling it later. >> Funny part here is that even the current code on master and >> REL9_4_STABLE of pg_recvlogical.c is fetching a start position when >> creating a replication slot that is not used as two different actions >> cannot be used at the same time.

Ah yes true, it is actually possible to start the replication process after creating the slot, so better not to remove it... I have updated CreateReplicationSlot to add startpos in the fields that can be requested from results. >> As that's only cosmetic for 9.4, and this patch makes things more >> correct I guess that's fine to do nothing and just try to get this >> patch in. > > In what sense do you think that this part of patch is better than > current code?

Oops. Thanks for checking, I changed the check to have something for the database name. At the same time, I noticed an unnecessary limitation in the second patch: we should be able to create a slot and stream from it directly. Last version exited immediately after the creation, error or not. Updated patches attached. Regards, -- Michael

Hi,
I've split and edited patch 0001:
0001) Old WIP patch for pg_recvlogical tests. Useful for easier development.
0002) Copy editing that should be in 9.4
0003) Rebased patches of yours
0004) My changes to 0003 besides the rebase. This'll be squashed, but I
thought it might be interesting for you.
I haven't tested my edits besides running 0001...

From where is this patch? Is it some rest from the time when pg_recvlogical was developed?

Definitely makes sense for a backpatch.

I don't recall that comments on a single line have a dot even if this single line is a complete sentence.

+static void StreamLogicalLog();
-static void StreamLog();
+static void StreamLogicalLog();
Not related at all to those patches, but for correctness it is better to add a declaration "(void)".
Except those small things the changes look good to me.

Thanks. Attached is a rebased version of patch 2, implementing the actual feature. One thing I noticed with more testing is that if --create is used and that the destination folder does not exist, pg_receivexlog was creating the slot, and left with an error. This does not look user-friendly so I changed the logic a bit to check for the destination folder before creating any slot. This results in a bit of refactoring, but this way behavior is more intuitive.

I don't like 'defined' here. 'replication connection unexpectedly is
database specific' or something would be better.
I do wonder whether --create/--drop aren't somewhat wierd for
pg_receivexlog. It's not that clear what it means. It'd be ugly, but we
could rename them --create-slot/drop-slot.

The reason I'm calling it uglyu is that it's different from
pg_recvlogical. We could change it there, too? A bit late, but probably

Well, yes, however the third mode is not explicitly present, and I
don't see much point in adding a --start mode thinking
backward-compatibility. Now, I refactored a bit the documentation to
mention that pg_receivexlog can perform additional actions to control
replication slots. I added as well in the portion of option --slot how
it interacts with --create-slot and --drop-slot.

Sure, IMO the error message should as well mention the replication
slot being used, so I reformulated as such:
"replication connection using slot foo is unexpectedly database specific"

In line with the other patch sent earlier, options are renamed to
--create-slot and --drop-slot.

Any opinion on whether whe should accept both --create and --create-slot or only the latter? Accepting both would get rid of problems due to potential usages of the old syntax - and it's easier to type... I don't really care.

Uh? You're documenting --start-slot here and a couple other places, but
you implement --drop-slot. And --start-slot doesn't seem to make much
sense to me.
I've pushed a polished up version. Fixing the above and
logicaldecoding.sgml
Note that at least gnu's getopt_long() accepts --create for
--create-slot...

+-+, yes. It was aimed to be --create-slot :) Perhaps that was caused because of the lack of caffeine. Thanks for noticing and fixing.

I don't see why the slot should be there. If this has gone wrong it's
not related to the slot.

Comment is wrongly copied. Obviously we're neither looking at the
timeline nor the WAL position.
Pushed with these adjustments.
Amit, Fujii: Sorry for not mentioning you as reviewers of the
patchset. I hadn't followed the earlier development and thus somehow
missed that you'd both done a couple rounds of reivew.
