From 872770fd6ccf12596b9e26234df9a37cae083af2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Peter Geoghegan Date: Fri, 11 Feb 2022 16:48:40 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] Add VACUUM instrumentation for scanned pages, relfrozenxid. Report on scanned pages within VACUUM VERBOSE and autovacuum logging. These are pages that were physically examined during the VACUUM operation. Note that this can include a small number of pages that were marked all-visible in the visibility map by some earlier VACUUM operation. VACUUM won't skip all-visible pages that aren't part of a range of all-visible pages that's at least 32 blocks in length (partly to avoid missing out on opportunities to advance relfrozenxid during non-aggressive VACUUMs). Commit 44fa8488 simplified the definition of scanned pages. It became the complement of the pages (of those pages from rel_pages) that were skipped using the visibility map. And so scanned pages precisely indicates how effective the visibility map was at saving work. (Before now we displayed the number of pages skipped via the visibility map when happened to be frozen pages, but not when they were merely all-visible, which was less useful to users.) Rename the user-visible OldestXmin output field to "removal cutoff", and show some supplementary information: how far behind the cutoff is (number of XIDs behind) by the time the VACUUM operation finished. This will help users to figure out what's _not_ working in extreme cases where VACUUM is fundamentally unable to remove dead tuples or freeze older tuples (e.g., due to a leaked replication slot). Also report when relfrozenxid is advanced by VACUUM in output that immediately follows "removal cutoff". This structure is intended to highlight the relationship between the new relfrozenxid value for the table, and the VACUUM operation's removal cutoff. Finally, add instrumentation of "missed dead tuples", and the number of pages that had at least one such tuple. These are fully DEAD (not just RECENTLY_DEAD) tuples with storage that could not be pruned due to failure to acquire a cleanup lock on a heap page. This is a replacement for the "skipped due to pin" instrumentation removed by commit 44fa8488. It shows more details than before for pages where failing to get a cleanup lock actually resulted in VACUUM missing out on useful work, but usually shows nothing at all instead (the mere fact that we couldn't get a cleanup lock is usually of no consequence whatsoever now).
