I have few more comments on the patch
0013-Change-buffile-interface-required-for-streaming-.patch:
1.
- * temp_file_limit of the caller, are read-only and are automatically closed
- * at the end of the transaction but are not deleted on close.
+ * temp_file_limit of the caller, are read-only if the flag is set and are
+ * automatically closed at the end of the transaction but are not deleted on
+ * close.
*/
File
-PathNameOpenTemporaryFile(const char *path)
+PathNameOpenTemporaryFile(const char *path, int mode)
No need to say "are read-only if the flag is set". I don't see any
flag passed to function so that part of the comment doesn't seem
appropriate.
2.
@@ -68,7 +68,8 @@ SharedFileSetInit(SharedFileSet *fileset, dsm_segment *seg)

- on_dsm_detach(seg, SharedFileSetOnDetach, PointerGetDatum(fileset));
+ if (seg)
+ on_dsm_detach(seg, SharedFileSetOnDetach, PointerGetDatum(fileset));
}
Add comments atop function to explain when we don't want to register
the dsm detach stuff?
3.
+ */
+ newFile = file->numFiles - 1;
+ newOffset = FileSize(file->files[file->numFiles - 1]);
break;
FileSize can return negative lengths to indicate failure which we
should handle. See other places in the code where FileSize is used?
But I have another question here which is why we need to implement
SEEK_END? How other usages of BufFile interface takes care of this?
I see an API BufFileTell which can give the current read/write
location in the file, isn't that sufficient for your usage? Also, how
before BufFile usage is this thing handled in the patch?
4.
+ /* Loop over all the files upto the fileno which we want to truncate. */
+ for (i = file->numFiles - 1; i >= fileno; i--)
"the files", extra space in the above part of the comment.
5.
+ /*
+ * Except the fileno, we can directly delete other files.
Before 'we', there is extra space.
6.
+ else
+ {
+ FileTruncate(file->files[i], offset, WAIT_EVENT_BUFFILE_READ);
+ newOffset = offset;
+ }
The wait event passed here doesn't seem to be appropriate. You might
want to introduce a new wait event WAIT_EVENT_BUFFILE_TRUNCATE. Also,
the error handling for FileTruncate is missing.
7.
+ if ((i != fileno || offset == 0) && fileno != 0)
+ {
+ SharedSegmentName(segment_name, file->name, i);
+ SharedFileSetDelete(file->fileset, segment_name, true);
+ newFile--;
+ newOffset = MAX_PHYSICAL_FILESIZE;
+ }
Similar to the previous comment, I think we should handle the failure
of SharedFileSetDelete.
8. I think the comments related to BufFile shared API usage need to be
expanded in the code to explain the new usage. For ex., see the below
comments atop buffile.c
* BufFile supports temporary files that can be made read-only and shared with
* other backends, as infrastructure for parallel execution. Such files need
* to be created as a member of a SharedFileSet that all participants are
* attached to.
