修改一下代码,睡它30s。或者执行postgres可执行文件,set args 也OK。
启动数据库:
/usr/local/psql-9.5.3/bin/pg_ctl -D db2/ -l logfile start -m fast
查看后台进程PID:
[postgres@localhost ~]$ ps -ef |grep postgres
root 57843 57805 0 10:58 pts/1 00:00:00 su - postgres
postgres 57844 57843 0 10:58 pts/1 00:00:00 -bash
postgres 57977 1 0 11:01 pts/1 00:00:00 /usr/local/psql-9.5.3/bin/postgres -D db2
postgres 57981 57844 0 11:02 pts/1 00:00:00 ps -ef
postgres 57982 57844 0 11:02 pts/1 00:00:00 grep --color=auto postgres
进入调试模式,需要等30s:
cgdb -p 57977
(gdb) b main.c:64
Breakpoint 1 at 0x676229: file main.c, line 64.
(gdb) c
Continuing.
Breakpoint 1, main (argc=3, argv=0x7ffceddcbe88) at main.c:64
(gdb)
首先pg进入main函数,最先是获取到progname:
(gdb) p argv[0]
$1 = 0x7ffceddcd6d6 "/usr/local/psql-9.5.3/bin/postgres"
其实这个里面还是根据main函数的第一个参数进行字符串拆分计算出progname
具体可以跟一下函数"get_progname":
(gdb) p progname
$15 = 0x14f9010 "postgres"
初始化内存(MemoryContextInit):
这个是数据库启动的时候初始化的第一块内存,我们一起来看看里面的内容。
在看这个之前,我们先来了解一下PG几个关于内存的结构体
typedef struct MemoryContextData *MemoryContext;
typedef struct MemoryContextData
{
NodeTag type; /* identifies exact kind of context */
/* these two fields are placed here to minimize alignment wastage: */
bool isReset; /* T = no space alloced since last reset */
bool allowInCritSection; /* allow palloc in critical section */
MemoryContextMethods *methods; /* virtual function table */
MemoryContext parent; /* NULL if no parent (toplevel context) */
MemoryContext firstchild; /* head of linked list of children */
MemoryContext nextchild; /* next child of same parent */
char *name; /* context name (just for debugging) */
MemoryContextCallback *reset_cbs; /* list of reset/delete callbacks */
} MemoryContextData;
我们先看看MemoryContextData是如何被初始化的:
函数 MemoryContextCreate
MemSet(node, 0, size);
node->type = tag;
node->methods = methods;
node->parent = NULL; /* for the moment */
node->firstchild = NULL;
node->nextchild = NULL;
node->isReset = true;
node->name = ((char *) node) + size;
strcpy(node->name, name);
(gdb) p *node
$31 = {type = T_AllocSetContext, isReset = 1 '\001', allowInCritSection = 0 '\000', methods = 0xd1bbe0 <AllocSetMethods>, parent = 0x0, firstchild = 0x0, nextchild = 0x0, name = 0x
14f9c70 "TopMemoryContext", reset_cbs = 0x0}
其实这里最重要的是methods这个参数,这是个函数指针,还有里面其实最主要的就是内存上下文的父子关系
我们回头再细研究这个东东。
函数返回的是MemoryContext转成AllocSet.就是下面的结构体,其实MemoryContextData成了它的header。
这就是后面的NODE那个大enum,直接小转大。
typedef struct AllocSetContext
{
MemoryContextData header; /* Standard memory-context fields */
/* Info about storage allocated in this context: */
AllocBlock blocks; /* head of list of blocks in this set */
AllocChunk freelist[ALLOCSET_NUM_FREELISTS]; /* free chunk lists */
/* Allocation parameters for this context: */
Size initBlockSize; /* initial block size */
Size maxBlockSize; /* maximum block size */
Size nextBlockSize; /* next block size to allocate */
Size allocChunkLimit; /* effective chunk size limit */
AllocBlock keeper; /* if not NULL, keep this block over resets */
} AllocSetContext;
typedef AllocSetContext *AllocSet;
我们来看看这个set内容,里面包含了数据库初始化的数据块大小,最大块,下一个块以及chunk的limit.
TopMemoryContext = AllocSetContextCreate((MemoryContext) NULL, "TopMemoryContext", 0, 8 * 1024, 8 * 1024);
在初始化"TopMemoryContext"的时候,默认以及设定了最小块为0,初始化为8*1024,最大为8*1024
(gdb) p *set $45 = {header = {type = T_AllocSetContext, isReset = 1 '\001', allowInCritSection = 0 '\000', methods = 0xd1bbe0 <AllocSetMethods>, parent = 0x0, firstchild = 0x0, nextchild = 0x0, name = 0x14f9c70 "TopMemoryContext", reset_cbs = 0x0}, blocks = 0x0, freelist = {0x0 <repeats 11 times>}, initBlockSize = 8192, maxBlockSize = 8192, nextBlockSize = 8192, allocChunkLimit = 1024, keeper = 0x0}
可以到初始化的数据块为8K,最大8K,allocChunkLimit为1024.
这样就把这个"TopMemoryContext"初始化完成了,然后把该内存上下文赋值给CurrentMemoryContext。
(gdb) p CurrentMemoryContext $58 = (MemoryContext) 0x14f9bb0 (gdb) p TopMemoryContext $59 = (MemoryContext) 0x14f9bb0 (gdb)
现在初始化"TopMemoryContext"的第一个孩子,"ErrorContext"。
处理方式跟上面的区别,就是parent是"TopMemoryContext",并且内存上下文是通过MemoryContext->methods->AllocSetAlloc这个函数指针来分配内存的
这个后面要单独分析。
(gdb) p *ErrorContext $65 = {type = T_AllocSetContext, isReset = 1 '\001', allowInCritSection = 0 '\000', methods = 0xd1bbe0 <AllocSetMethods>, parent = 0x14f9bb0, firstchild = 0x0, nextchild = 0x0, nam e = 0x14f9d80 "ErrorContext", reset_cbs = 0x0} (gdb) p *ErrorContext->parent $66 = {type = T_AllocSetContext, isReset = 0 '\000', allowInCritSection = 0 '\000', methods = 0xd1bbe0 <AllocSetMethods>, parent = 0x0, firstchild = 0x14f9cc0, nextchild = 0x0, nam e = 0x14f9c70 "TopMemoryContext", reset_cbs = 0x0} (gdb) p *ErrorContext->parent->firstchild $67 = {type = T_AllocSetContext, isReset = 1 '\001', allowInCritSection = 0 '\000', methods = 0xd1bbe0 <AllocSetMethods>, parent = 0x14f9bb0, firstchild = 0x0, nextchild = 0x0, nam e = 0x14f9d80 "ErrorContext", reset_cbs = 0x0} (gdb)
这样就把ErrorContext初始化完成了。PG中所有的内存上下文都挂载"TopMemoryContext"下面。
后面就是大量的环境变量设置了,以及root校验。
最后调用函数"PostmasterMain(argc,argv)"。这就是我们的大管家,后面再写这部分。
