It works efficiently for both small and large amounts9 * of data. Small amounts are sorted in-memory using qsort(). Large10 * amounts are sorted using temporary files and a standard external sort11 * algorithm. Parallel sorts use a variant of this external sort12 * algorithm, and are typically only used for large amounts of data.13 *14 * Portions Copyright (c) 1996-2023, PostgreSQL Global Development Group15 * Portions Copyright (c) 1994, Regents of the University of California16 *17 * src/include/utils/tuplesort.h18 *19 *-------------------------------------------------------------------------20 */21#ifndef TUPLESORT_H22#define TUPLESORT_H23 24#include "access/itup.h"25#include "executor/tuptable.h"26#include "storage/dsm.h"27#include "utils/logtape.h"28#include "utils/relcache.h"29#include "utils/sortsupport.h"30 31 32/*33 * Tuplesortstate and Sharedsort are opaque types whose details are not34 * known outside tuplesort.c.35 */36typedef struct Tuplesortstate Tuplesortstate;37typedef struct Sharedsort Sharedsort;38 39/*40 * Tuplesort parallel coordination state, allocated by each participant in41 * local memory.

Yet another255 * API supports sorting bare Datums.256 *257 * Serial sort callers should pass NULL for their coordinate argument.258 *259 * The "heap" API actually stores/sorts MinimalTuples, which means it doesn't260 * preserve the system columns (tuple identity and transaction visibility261 * info). The sort keys are specified by column numbers within the tuples262 * and sort operator OIDs. We save some cycles by passing and returning the263 * tuples in TupleTableSlots, rather than forming actual HeapTuples (which'd264 * have to be converted to MinimalTuples). This API works well for sorts265 * executed as parts of plan trees.266 *267 * The "cluster" API stores/sorts full HeapTuples including all visibility268 * info. The sort keys are specified by reference to a btree index that is269 * defined on the relation to be sorted. Note that putheaptuple/getheaptuple270 * go with this API, not the "begin_heap" one!271 *272 * The "index_btree" API stores/sorts IndexTuples (preserving all their273 * header fields). The sort keys are specified by a btree index definition.274 *275 * The "index_hash" API is similar to index_btree, but the tuples are276 * actually sorted by their hash codes not the raw data.277 *278 * Parallel sort callers are required to coordinate multiple tuplesort states279 * in a leader process and one or more worker processes. The leader process280 * must launch workers, and have each perform an independent "partial"281 * tuplesort, typically fed by the parallel heap interface. The leader later282 * produces the final output (internally, it merges runs output by workers).283 *284 * Callers must do the following to perform a sort in parallel using multiple285 * worker processes:286 *287 * 1. Request tuplesort-private shared memory for n workers. Use288 * tuplesort_estimate_shared() to get the required size.289 * 2. Have leader process initialize allocated shared memory using290 * tuplesort_initialize_shared(). Launch workers.291 * 3. Initialize a coordinate argument within both the leader process, and292 * for each worker process. This has a pointer to the shared293 * tuplesort-private structure, as well as some caller-initialized fields.294 * Leader's coordinate argument reliably indicates number of workers295 * launched (this is unused by workers).296 * 4. Begin a tuplesort using some appropriate tuplesort_begin* routine,297 * (passing the coordinate argument) within each worker. The workMem298 * arguments need not be identical. All other arguments should match299 * exactly, though.300 * 5. tuplesort_attach_shared() should be called by all workers. Feed tuples301 * to each worker, and call tuplesort_performsort() within each when input302 * is exhausted.303 * 6. Call tuplesort_end() in each worker process. Worker processes can shut304 * down once tuplesort_end() returns.305 * 7. Begin a tuplesort in the leader using the same tuplesort_begin*306 * routine, passing a leader-appropriate coordinate argument (this can307 * happen as early as during step 3, actually, since we only need to know308 * the number of workers successfully launched). The leader must now wait309 * for workers to finish. Caller must use own mechanism for ensuring that310 * next step isn't reached until all workers have called and returned from311 * tuplesort_performsort(). (Note that it's okay if workers have already312 * also called tuplesort_end() by then.)313 * 8. Call tuplesort_performsort() in leader. Consume output using the314 * appropriate tuplesort_get* routine. Leader can skip this step if315 * tuplesort turns out to be unnecessary.316 * 9. Call tuplesort_end() in leader.317 *318 * This division of labor assumes nothing about how input tuples are produced,319 * but does require that caller combine the state of multiple tuplesorts for320 * any purpose other than producing the final output. For example, callers321 * must consider that tuplesort_get_stats() reports on only one worker's role322 * in a sort (or the leader's role), and not statistics for the sort as a323 * whole.324 *325 * Note that callers may use the leader process to sort runs as if it was an326 * independent worker process (prior to the process performing a leader sort327 * to produce the final sorted output). Doing so only requires a second328 * "partial" tuplesort within the leader process, initialized like that of a329 * worker process. The steps above don't touch on this directly. The only330 * difference is that the tuplesort_attach_shared() call is never needed within331 * leader process, because the backend as a whole holds the shared fileset332 * reference. A worker Tuplesortstate in leader is expected to do exactly the333 * same amount of total initial processing work as a worker process334 * Tuplesortstate, since the leader process has nothing else to do before335 * workers finish.336 *337 * Note that only a very small amount of memory will be allocated prior to338 * the leader state first consuming input, and that workers will free the339 * vast majority of their memory upon returning from tuplesort_performsort().340 * Callers can rely on this to arrange for memory to be used in a way that341 * respects a workMem-style budget across an entire parallel sort operation.342 *343 * Callers are responsible for parallel safety in general. However, they344 * can at least rely on there being no parallel safety hazards within345 * tuplesort, because tuplesort thinks of the sort as several independent346 * sorts whose results are combined. Since, in general, the behavior of347 * sort operators is immutable, caller need only worry about the parallel348 * safety of whatever the process is through which input tuples are349 * generated (typically, caller uses a parallel heap scan).350 */351 352 353extern Tuplesortstate *tuplesort_begin_common(int workMem,354 SortCoordinate coordinate,355 int sortopt);356extern void tuplesort_set_bound(Tuplesortstate *state, int64 bound);357extern bool tuplesort_used_bound(Tuplesortstate *state);358extern void tuplesort_puttuple_common(Tuplesortstate *state,359 SortTuple *tuple, bool useAbbrev);360extern void tuplesort_performsort(Tuplesortstate *state);361extern bool tuplesort_gettuple_common(Tuplesortstate *state, bool forward,362 SortTuple *stup);363extern bool tuplesort_skiptuples(Tuplesortstate *state, int64 ntuples,364 bool forward);365extern void tuplesort_end(Tuplesortstate *state);366extern void tuplesort_reset(Tuplesortstate *state);367 368extern void tuplesort_get_stats(Tuplesortstate *state,369 TuplesortInstrumentation *stats);370extern const char *tuplesort_method_name(TuplesortMethod m);371extern const char *tuplesort_space_type_name(TuplesortSpaceType t);372 373extern int tuplesort_merge_order(int64 allowedMem);374 375extern Size tuplesort_estimate_shared(int nWorkers);376extern void tuplesort_initialize_shared(Sharedsort *shared, int nWorkers,377 dsm_segment *seg);378extern void tuplesort_attach_shared(Sharedsort *shared, dsm_segment *seg);379 380/*381 * These routines may only be called if TUPLESORT_RANDOMACCESS was specified382 * during tuplesort_begin_*.
