Hi hackers!
and Matthias van de Meent, and decided, as it was recommended earlier, include only the most
important part in the first set. Also, I've added a large README on Pluggable TOAST to sources,
I'll be grateful for feedback on this README file. Also, some minor fixes were included in patches.
Now patch set consists of 3 incremental patches:
0001_create_table_storage_v6.patch - This patch adds important part of SQL syntax fix for
CREATE TABLE clause, which is mandatory for all Pluggable TOAST functionality - processing of
SET STORAGE option correctly.
This patch is presented by Teodor Sigaev and is already discussed and marked as ready for commit
in a separate thread;
0002_toaster_interface_v9.patch - The patch introduces TOAST API interface and SQL syntax
allowing creation of custom Toaster (CREATE TOASTER ...) and assigning Toaster to a table column
CREATE TABLE t (data bytea STORAGE EXTERNAL TOASTER bytea_toaster);
Default TOAST functionality is left intact, for the sake of not-so-big one-time changes, and nothing
changes from user's perspective, but here user already can develop and plug in custom Toasters;
0003_toaster_default_v8.patch - Introducing Default TOAST implemented via TOAST API, and
a large README on Pluggable TOAST functionality for developers, put into
/src/backend/access/toast/README.toastapi
With a respect to Aleksander Alekseev

we decided to leave the dummy Toaster as it is, because it's purpose is not to show heavy lifting
done by internal Toaster implementation, but to demonstrate how Toaster extension is defined
and plugged in.
Thank you for your attention and feedbacks!

Hi Nikita,

Thanks for the rebased patchset.
This is a huge effort though. I suggest splitting it into several CF
entries as we previously did with other patches (64-bit XIDs to name
one, which BTW is arguably much simpler, but still we had to split
it). This will simplify the review, limit the scope of the discussion
and simplify passing the CI. Cfbot is already not happy with the
patchset.
0001 - is already in a separate thread [1], that's good. I suggest
marking it in the patch description for clarity.
0002, 0003 - I suggest focusing on these two in this thread and keep
the rest of the changes for later discussion. Please submit 0004,
0005... next time, when we finish with 0001-0003.
The order of proposed changes IMO is wrong.
0002 should refactor the default TOASTer in a manner similar to a
pluggable one. Nothing should change from the user's perspective. If
you do benchmarks, I suggest not to reference the previous talks. I
familiarized myself with all the related talks linked before (took me
some time...) and found them useless for the discussion since they
don't provide exact steps to reproduce. Please provide exact scripts
and benchmarks results for 0002 in this thread.
0003 should add an interface that allows replacing the default TOASTer
with an alternative one. There is no need for contrib/dummy_toaster
similarly as there is no contrib/ for a dummy TableAM. The provided
example doesn't do much anyway since all the heavy lifting should be
done in the callbacks implementation. For test purposes please use
src/test/regress/.
