23
 * NOTES
24
 *
25
 * The visibility map is a bitmap with two bits (all-visible and all-frozen)
26
 * per heap page. A set all-visible bit means that all tuples on the page are
27
 * known visible to all transactions, and therefore the page doesn't need to
28
 * be vacuumed. A set all-frozen bit means that all tuples on the page are
29
 * completely frozen, and therefore the page doesn't need to be vacuumed even
30
 * if whole table scanning vacuum is required (e.g. anti-wraparound vacuum).
31
 * The all-frozen bit must be set only when the page is already all-visible.
32
 *
33
 * The map is conservative in the sense that we make sure that whenever a bit
34
 * is set, we know the condition is true, but if a bit is not set, it might or
35
 * might not be true.
36
 *
37
 * Changes to the visibility map bits are not separately WAL-logged. Callers
38
 * must make sure that whenever a visibility map bit is cleared, the bit is
39
 * cleared on WAL replay of the updating operation. And whenever a visibility
40
 * map bit is set, the bit is set on WAL replay of the operation that rendered
41
 * the page all-visible/all-frozen.
42
 *
43
 * The visibility map bits operate as a hint in one direction: if they are
44
 * clear, it may still be the case that every tuple on the page is visible to
45
 * all transactions (we just don't know that for certain). However, if they
46
 * are set, we may skip vacuuming pages and advance relfrozenxid or skip
47
 * reading heap pages for an index-only scan. If they are incorrectly set,
48
 * this can lead to data corruption and wrong results.
49
 *
50
 * Additionally, it is critical that the heap-page level PD_ALL_VISIBLE bit be
51
 * correctly set and cleared along with the VM bits.
52
 *
53
 * When clearing the VM, if a crash occurs after the heap page makes it to
54
 * disk but before the VM page makes it to disk, replay must clear the VM or
55
 * the next index-only scan can return wrong results or vacuum may incorrectly
56
 * advance relfrozenxid.
57
 *
58
 * When setting the VM, if a crash occurs after the visibility map page makes
59
 * it to disk and before the updated heap page makes it to disk, redo must set
60
 * the bit on the heap page. Otherwise, the next insert, update, or delete on
61
 * the heap page will fail to realize that the visibility map bit must be
62
 * cleared, possibly causing index-only scans to return wrong answers.
63
 *
64
 * VACUUM will normally skip pages for which the visibility map bit is set;
65
 * such pages can't contain any dead tuples and therefore don't need vacuuming.
66
 *
67
 * LOCKING
68
 *
69
 * In heapam.c, whenever a page is modified so that not all tuples on the
70
 * page are visible to everyone anymore, the corresponding bit in the
71
 * visibility map is cleared. In order to be crash-safe, we need to do this
72
 * while still holding a lock on the heap page and in the same critical
73
 * section that logs the page modification. However, we don't want to hold
74
 * the buffer lock over any I/O that may be required to read in the visibility
75
 * map page.  To avoid this, we examine the heap page before locking it;
76
 * if the page-level PD_ALL_VISIBLE bit is set, we pin the visibility map
77
 * bit.  Then, we lock the buffer.  But this creates a race condition: there
78
 * is a possibility that in the time it takes to lock the buffer, the
79
 * PD_ALL_VISIBLE bit gets set.  If that happens, we have to unlock the
80
 * buffer, pin the visibility map page, and relock the buffer.  This shouldn't
81
 * happen often, because only VACUUM currently sets visibility map bits,
82
 * and the race will only occur if VACUUM processes a given page at almost
83
 * exactly the same time that someone tries to further modify it.
84
 *
85
 * To set a bit, you need to hold a lock on the heap page. That prevents
86
 * the race condition where VACUUM sees that all tuples on the page are
87
 * visible to everyone, but another backend modifies the page before VACUUM
88
 * sets the bit in the visibility map.
89
 *
90
 * When a bit is set, the LSN of the visibility map page is updated to make
91
 * sure that the visibility map update doesn't get written to disk before the
92
 * WAL record of the changes that made it possible to set the bit is flushed.
93
 * But when a bit is cleared, we don't have to do that because it's always
94
 * safe to clear a bit in the map from correctness point of view.
