Ok guys. The attached patch refactor the reloptions adding a new field
"lockmode" in "relopt_gen" struct and a new method to determine the
required lock level from an option list.
We need determine the appropriate lock level for each reloption:
- boolRelopts:
* autovacuum_enabled (AccessShareLock)
* user_catalog_table (AccessExclusiveLock)
* fastupdate (AccessExclusiveLock)
* security_barrier (AccessExclusiveLock)
- intRelOpts:
* fillfactor (heap) (AccessExclusiveLock)
* fillfactor (btree) (AccessExclusiveLock)
* fillfactor (gist) (AccessExclusiveLock)
* fillfactor (spgist) (AccessExclusiveLock)
* autovacuum_vacuum_threshold (AccessShareLock)
* autovacuum_analyze_threshold (AccessShareLock)
* autovacuum_vacuum_cost_delay (AccessShareLock)
* autovacuum_vacuum_cost_limit (AccessShareLock)
* autovacuum_freeze_min_age (AccessShareLock)
* autovacuum_multixact_freeze_min_age (AccessShareLock)
* autovacuum_freeze_max_age (AccessShareLock)
* autovacuum_multixact_freeze_max_age (AccessShareLock)
* autovacuum_freeze_table_age (AccessShareLock)
* autovacuum_multixact_freeze_table_age (AccessShareLock)
* log_autovacuum_min_duration (AccessShareLock)
* pages_per_range (AccessExclusiveLock)
* gin_pending_list_limit (AccessExclusiveLock)
- realRelOpts:
* autovacuum_vacuum_scale_factor (AccessShareLock)
* autovacuum_analyze_scale_factor (AccessShareLock)
* seq_page_cost (AccessExclusiveLock)
* random_page_cost (AccessExclusiveLock)
* n_distinct (AccessExclusiveLock)
* n_distinct_inherited (AccessExclusiveLock)
- stringRelOpts:
* buffering (AccessExclusiveLock)
* check_option (AccessExclusiveLock)
In the above list I just change lock level from AccessExclusiveLock to
AccessShareLock to all "autovacuum" related reloptions because it was the
motivation of this patch.
I need some help to define the others.
Regards,
