背景

PostgreSQL 的基于流复制的物理备库是基于redo的物理块复制备库,允许开放只读的功能,但是需要注意,由于主库可能不断的产生redo,这些redo可能会与备库的QUERY产生冲突。

什么情况下query会堵塞、或与恢复冲突?

当以下操作产生的REDO被复制到备库,并且备库准备拿这些REDO来恢复时。

  • Access Exclusive locks taken on the primary server, including both explicit LOCK commands and various DDL actions, conflict with table accesses in standby queries.

    主库的访问排它锁,与备库对应的锁产生冲突。

    例如主库truncate a表, 备库查询a表。

    这种情况的冲突面很窄。

  • Dropping a tablespace on the primary conflicts with standby queries using that tablespace for temporary work files.

    主库删除表空间,备库使用这个表空间产生临时文件。 例如主库删除TBS,备库的一个大的查询需要写临时文件,并且这个临时文件是写到这个表空间的。

    这种情况非常少见,也很容易规避,新建一个临时表空间不要删除即可。

  • Dropping a database on the primary conflicts with sessions connected to that database on the standby.

    主库删除数据库,备库刚好连在这个数据库上。

    这种情况也非常的少见。

  • Application of a vacuum cleanup record from WAL conflicts with standby transactions whose snapshots can still "see" any of the rows to be removed.

    主库回收dead tuple的REDO,同事备库当前的query snapshot需要看到这些记录。

    这种情况可以通过参数控制,恢复优先,或查询优先。 可以配置时间窗口。

    而且这种冲突出现的概率也非常的小,除非用户在备库使用repeatable read,同时是非常大的事务。

    而通常用户用的都是read committed.

  • Application of a vacuum cleanup record from WAL conflicts with queries accessing the target page on the standby, whether or not the data to be removed is visible.

    同上,但是当query访问的页就是要清理垃圾的页时,也是有冲突的。

    这是物理复制与逻辑复制唯一有差别的地方,但是对现实场景来说,这种情况出现的概率也不大。

案例

最近收到了一个冲突的例子,是这样的,在备库查询一些函数,导致了这样的报错。

< 2016-08-09 22:03:39.534 CST >STATEMENT:  SELECTxxx('32980770','-1','0','0',20,100,10)  
< 2016-08-09 22:03:39.534 CST >ERROR:  canceling statement due to conflict with recovery  
< 2016-08-09 22:03:39.534 CST >DETAIL:  User was holding shared buffer pin for too long.  
< 2016-08-09 22:03:39.534 CST >CONTEXT:  PL/pgSQL function xxx(integer,bigint[],integer,integer) line 7 at RETURN QUERY  
  PL/pgSQL function xxx(integer,integer,bigint,bigint,integer,integer,integer) line 15 at RETURN QUERY  

是什么原因造成的呢?

PostgreSQL 备库apply与query之间可能存在的冲突种类如下

src/include/storage/procsignal.h

        /* Recovery conflict reasons */  
        PROCSIG_RECOVERY_CONFLICT_DATABASE,  
        PROCSIG_RECOVERY_CONFLICT_TABLESPACE,  
        PROCSIG_RECOVERY_CONFLICT_LOCK,  
        PROCSIG_RECOVERY_CONFLICT_SNAPSHOT,  
        PROCSIG_RECOVERY_CONFLICT_BUFFERPIN,  
        PROCSIG_RECOVERY_CONFLICT_STARTUP_DEADLOCK,  

例子的这个报错的冲突类型属于 PROCSIG_RECOVERY_CONFLICT_BUFFERPIN

它来自这个个函数

/*  
 * errdetail_recovery_conflict  
 *  
 * Add an errdetail() line showing conflict source.  
 */  
static int  
errdetail_recovery_conflict(void)  
{  
        switch (RecoveryConflictReason)  
        {  
                case PROCSIG_RECOVERY_CONFLICT_BUFFERPIN:  
                        errdetail("User was holding shared buffer pin for too long.");  
                        break;  

备库apply redo时,产生的冲突,调用如下

源码

备库在apply redo时,如果遇到vacuum操作,则会触发以下。

而vacuum必须要拿到block的exclusive lock才能继续下去。

void  
LockBufferForCleanup(Buffer buffer)  
{  
...  
	for (;;)  
	{  
		/* Try to acquire lock */  
		LockBuffer(buffer, BUFFER_LOCK_EXCLUSIVE);  
		LockBufHdr(bufHdr);  
...  
		/* Wait to be signaled by UnpinBuffer() */  
		if (InHotStandby)  
		{  
			/* Publish the bufid that Startup process waits on */  
			SetStartupBufferPinWaitBufId(buffer - 1);  
			/* Set alarm and then wait to be signaled by UnpinBuffer() */  
			ResolveRecoveryConflictWithBufferPin();  
			/* Reset the published bufid */  
			SetStartupBufferPinWaitBufId(-1);  
		}  

如果是standby,则判断是否超时,如果没有超时,vacuum redo会继续等待。

void  
ResolveRecoveryConflictWithBufferPin(void)  
{  
        TimestampTz ltime;  
  
        Assert(InHotStandby);  
  
        ltime = GetStandbyLimitTime();  
  
        if (ltime == 0)  
        {  
                /*  
                 * We're willing to wait forever for conflicts, so set timeout for  
                 * deadlock check only  
                 */  
                enable_timeout_after(STANDBY_DEADLOCK_TIMEOUT, DeadlockTimeout);  
        }  
        else if (GetCurrentTimestamp() >= ltime)  
        {  
                /*  
                 * We're already behind, so clear a path as quickly as possible.  
                 */  
                SendRecoveryConflictWithBufferPin(PROCSIG_RECOVERY_CONFLICT_BUFFERPIN);  
        }  

冲突超时时间获取,超时则触发 SendRecoveryConflictWithBufferPin , 导致这个CASE的错误。

/*  
 * Determine the cutoff time at which we want to start canceling conflicting  
 * transactions.  Returns zero (a time safely in the past) if we are willing  
 * to wait forever.  
 */  
static TimestampTz  
GetStandbyLimitTime(void)  
{  
        TimestampTz rtime;  
        bool            fromStream;  
  
        /*  
         * The cutoff time is the last WAL data receipt time plus the appropriate  
         * delay variable.  Delay of -1 means wait forever.  
         */  
        GetXLogReceiptTime(&rtime, &fromStream);  
        if (fromStream)  
        {  
                if (max_standby_streaming_delay < 0)  
                        return 0;                       /* wait forever */  
                return TimestampTzPlusMilliseconds(rtime, max_standby_streaming_delay);  
        }  
        else  
        {  
                if (max_standby_archive_delay < 0)  
                        return 0;                       /* wait forever */  
                return TimestampTzPlusMilliseconds(rtime, max_standby_archive_delay);  
        }  
}  

如何避免或降低冲突

PostgreSQL提供了3种解决备库上查询与恢复冲突的办法

  • 在主库配置vacuum_defer_cleanup_age来解决以上最后两种冲突。
vacuum_defer_cleanup_age = 0   # number of xacts by which cleanup is delayed  
  • 在备库配置recovery延迟来解决以上所有冲突,给备库的QUERY设置一个执行窗口
max_standby_archive_delay = 30s        # max delay before canceling queries  
# when reading WAL from archive;  
# -1 allows indefinite delay  
#   
max_standby_streaming_delay = 30s      # max delay before canceling queries  
# when reading streaming WAL;  
# -1 allows indefinite delay  
  • 在备库配置hot_standby_feedback,备库会反馈给主库QUERY情况(可能是快照,而不是QUERY本身)(如果是级联环境,则会反馈给最上层的主库)

    从而主库知道备库在干什么,在cleanup dead tuple时,会考虑备库的情况,防止冲突。

hot_standby_feedback = off             # send info from standby to prevent query conflicts  
#   
wal_retrieve_retry_interval = 1s
