一、问题描述
用户在实际中可能会碰到类似以下 dead rows 无法 vacuum的问题,一个可能的原因是由于游标未结束的原因。
test=# vacuum(verbose) t1;
INFO: vacuuming "public.t1"
INFO: "t1": found 0 removable, 985 nonremovable row versions in 66 out of 67 pages
DETAIL: 788 dead row versions cannot be removed yet, oldest xmin: 4996
There were 0 unused item identifiers.
Skipped 1 page due to buffer pins, 0 frozen pages.
0 pages are entirely empty.

INFO: vacuuming "sys_toast.sys_toast_29558"
INFO: index "sys_toast_29558_index" now contains 0 row versions in 1 pages
DETAIL: 0 index row versions were removed.

二、举例说明
1、事务不提交的情况
创建测试数据:
create table t1(id integer,name text);
create table t2(id integer);
insert insert t1 select generate_series(1,1000),repeat('a',500);
创建测试过程:
create or replace procedure proc01_nocommit as
cursor c01 is select id from t1;
v_id integer;
begin
open c01;
fetch c01 into v_id;
while (c01%FOUND) loop
insert into t2 values(v_id);
perform sys_sleep(1);
fetch c01 into v_id;
end loop;
end;
/
session 1:
call proc01_nocommit();
session 2:
test=# select * from sys_locks where relation='t1'::regclass;
locktype | database | relation | page | tuple | virtualxid | transactionid | classid | objid | objsubid | virtualtransaction | pid | mode | granted | fastpath
----------+----------+----------+------+-------+------------+---------------+---------+-------+----------+--------------------+--------+-----------------+---------+----------
relation | 29504 | 29558 | | | | | | | | 4/2737 | 360612 | AccessShareLock | t | t
(1 row)
test=# delete from t1 where mod(id,5)<>1;
DELETE 200
无法 vacuum
test=# vacuum(verbose) t1;
INFO: vacuuming "public.t1"
INFO: "t1": found 0 removable, 985 nonremovable row versions in 66 out of 67 pages
DETAIL: 788 dead row versions cannot be removed yet, oldest xmin: 4996
There were 0 unused item identifiers.
Skipped 1 page due to buffer pins, 0 frozen pages.
0 pages are entirely empty.

INFO: "sys_toast_29558": found 0 removable, 0 nonremovable row versions in 0 out of 0 pages
DETAIL: 0 dead row versions cannot be removed yet, oldest xmin: 4996

VACUUM
结论:可以看到对象有 AccessShareLock 锁(实际验证,不管只要 cursor 定义了,不管是否open ,都会有 AccessShareLock 锁)。
2、事务提交的情景
修改过程块如下:
create or replace procedure proc01_commit as
cursor c01 is select id from t1;
v_id integer;
begin
open c01;
fetch c01 into v_id;
while (c01%FOUND) loop
insert into t2 values(v_id);
perform sys_sleep(1);
fetch c01 into v_id;
commit;
end loop;
end;
/
可以看到在游标内部加了commit;
PS:KingbaseES 支持游标跨事务的场景。在 commit时,会将剩余未完成游标的结果取回到临时文件,这样可以保证MVCC 机制。
Session 1:
call proc01_commit()
Session 2:
test=# select * from sys_locks where relation='t1'::regclass;
locktype | database | relation | page | tuple | virtualxid | transactionid | classid | objid | objsubid | virtualtransaction | pid | mode | granted | fastpath
----------+----------+----------+------+-------+------------+---------------+---------+-------+----------+--------------------+--------+-----------------+---------+----------
(0 row)
test=# delete from t1 where mod(id,5)<>0;
DELETE 800
结论:没有锁,可以vacuum。
test=# vacuum (verbose) t1;
INFO: vacuuming "public.t1"
