2 : : * logicalctl.c
3 : : * Functionality to control logical decoding status online.
4 : : *
5 : : * This module enables dynamic control of logical decoding availability.
6 : : * Logical decoding becomes active under two conditions: when the wal_level
7 : : * parameter is set to 'logical', or when at least one valid logical replication
8 : : * slot exists with wal_level set to 'replica'. The system disables logical
9 : : * decoding when neither condition is met. Therefore, the dynamic control
10 : : * of logical decoding availability is required only when wal_level is set
11 : : * to 'replica'. Logical decoding is always enabled when wal_level='logical'
12 : : * and always disabled when wal_level='minimal'.
13 : : *
14 : : * The core concept of dynamically enabling and disabling logical decoding
15 : : * is to separately control two aspects: writing information required for
16 : : * logical decoding to WAL records, and using logical decoding itself. During
17 : : * activation, we first enable logical WAL writing while keeping logical
18 : : * decoding disabled. This change is reflected in the read-only
19 : : * effective_wal_level GUC parameter. Once we ensure that all processes have
20 : : * updated to the latest effective_wal_level value, we then enable logical
21 : : * decoding. Deactivation follows a similar careful, multi-step process
22 : : * in reverse order.
23 : : *
24 : : * While activation occurs synchronously right after creating the first
25 : : * logical slot, deactivation happens asynchronously through the checkpointer
26 : : * process. This design avoids a race condition at the end of recovery; see
27 : : * the comments in UpdateLogicalDecodingStatusEndOfRecovery() for details.
28 : : * Asynchronous deactivation also avoids excessive toggling of the logical
29 : : * decoding status in workloads that repeatedly create and drop a single
30 : : * logical slot. On the other hand, this lazy approach can delay changes
31 : : * to effective_wal_level and the disabling logical decoding, especially
32 : : * when the checkpointer is busy with other tasks. We chose this lazy approach
33 : : * in all deactivation paths to keep the implementation simple, even though
34 : : * laziness is strictly required only for end-of-recovery cases. Future work
35 : : * might address this limitation either by using a dedicated worker instead
36 : : * of the checkpointer, or by implementing synchronous waiting during slot
37 : : * drops if workloads are significantly affected by the lazy deactivation
38 : : * of logical decoding.
39 : : *
40 : : * Standby servers use the primary server's effective_wal_level and logical
41 : : * decoding status. Unlike normal activation and deactivation, these
42 : : * are updated simultaneously without status change coordination, solely by
43 : : * replaying XLOG_LOGICAL_DECODING_STATUS_CHANGE records. The local wal_level
44 : : * setting has no effect during this time. Upon promotion, we update the
45 : : * logical decoding status based on local conditions: the wal_level value and
46 : : * the presence of logical slots.
47 : : *
48 : : * In the future, we could extend support to include automatic transitions
49 : : * of effective_wal_level between 'minimal' and 'logical' WAL levels. However,
50 : : * this enhancement would require additional coordination mechanisms and
51 : : * careful implementation of operations such as terminating walsenders and
52 : : * archiver processes while carefully considering the sequence of operations
53 : : * to ensure system stability during these transitions.
