Tom Lane [Sat, 13 Aug 2005 22:18:07 +0000 (22:18 +0000)]
Tweak catalog cache management algorithms to reduce cost of
SearchCatCacheList and ReleaseCatCacheList.  Previously, we incremented
and decremented the refcounts of list member tuples along with the list
itself, but that's unnecessary, and very expensive when the list is big.
It's cheaper to change only the list refcount.  When we are considering
deleting a cache entry, we have to check not only its own refcount but
its parent list's ... but it's easy to arrange the code so that this
check is not made in any commonly-used paths, so the cost is really nil.
The bigger gain though is to refrain from DLMoveToFront'ing each individual
member tuple each time the list is referenced.  To keep some semblance
of fair space management, lists are just marked as used or not since the
last cache cleanout search, and we do a MoveToFront pass only when about
to run a cleanout.  In combination, these changes reduce the costs of
SearchCatCacheList and ReleaseCatCacheList from about 4.5% of pgbench
runtime to under 1%, according to my gprof results.

Bruce Momjian [Sat, 13 Aug 2005 02:06:21 +0000 (02:06 +0000)]
The large one adds support for RSA keys and reorganizes
the pubkey functions a bit.  The actual RSA-specific code
there is tiny, most of the patch consists of reorg of the
pubkey code, as lots of it was written as elgamal-only.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

The SHLIB section was copy-pasted from somewhere and contains
several unnecessary libs.  This cleans it up a bit.

 -lcrypt
   we don't use system crypt()

 -lssl, -lssleay32
   no SSL here

 -lz in win32 section

 -ldes
   The chance anybody has it is pretty low.
   And the chance pgcrypto works with it is even lower.

Also trim the win32 section.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

It is already disabled in Makefile, remove code too.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

I was bit hasty making the random exponent 'k' a prime.  Further researh
shows that Elgamal encryption has no specific needs in respect to k,
any random number is fine.

It is bit different for signing, there it needs to be 'relatively prime'
to p - 1,  that means GCD(k, p-1) == 1, which is also a lot lighter than
full primality.  As we don't do signing, this can be ignored.

This brings major speedup to Elgamal encryption.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

There is a choice whether to update it with pgp functions or
remove it.  I decided to remove it, updating is pointless.

I've tried to keep the core of pgcrypto relatively independent
from main PostgreSQL, to make it easy to use externally if needed,
and that is good.  Eg. that made development of PGP functions much
nicer.

But I have no plans to release it as generic library, so keeping such
doc
up-to-date is waste of time.  If anyone is interested in using it in
other products, he can probably bother to read the source too.

Commented source is another thing - I'll try to make another pass
over code to see if there is anything non-obvious that would need
more comments.

Here we go, that wasn't too hard :-)

Apart from adding the error handling, it does one more thing: it changes
the errormode when loading the DLLs. Previously if a DLL was broken, or
referenced other DLLs that couldn't be found, a popup dialog box would
appear on the screen. Which had to be clicked before the backend could
continue. This patch also disables the popup error message for DLL
loads.

I think this is something we should consider doing for the entire
backend - disable those popups, and say we deal with it ourselves. What
do you other win32 hackers thinnk about this?

In the meantime, this patch fixes the error msgs. Please apply for 8.1
and please consider a backpatch to 8.0.
