PostgreSQL在没有备份情况下误删除Clog恢复

创建实验表

postgres# create table t (n_id int primary key,c_name varchar(300));
CREATE TABLE
postgres# insert into t select id,(id*1000)::text as name from
generate_series(1,1000) id;
INSERT 0 1000
postgres# delete from t where n_id =1000;
DELETE 1
postgres# update t set c_name = 'cs' where n_id > 990;
UPDATE 9
postgres# select * from t; -- 结果略，此步很关键
postgres# insert into t values ( 1001,'insert'),(1002,'insert');
INSERT 0 2
postgres# update t set c_name = 'update' where n_id = 1002;
UPDATE 1

关闭，并备份数据库
$ pg_ctl stop
等待服务器进程关闭 .... 完成
服务器进程已经关闭
$ cp -R $PGDATA $PGDATA/../pgdata_bak1

删除clog文件
$ cd $PGDATA/pg_xact
$ ls
0000 bak
$ rm 0000

启动数据库报错
$ pg_ctl start
pg_ctl: 无法启动服务器进程
检查日志输出.

略过一些不重要输出，报无法打开pg_xact/0000文件。

$ tail postgresql-2020-08-11_123341.csv

使用dd命令创建一个clog文件
因为一个clog文件最大为256K，所以只需创建一个256K的文件即可。写入全0的文件，代表所有事务均
在IN_PROGRESS状态。

状态标识事务状态

0x00 TRANSACTION_STATUS_IN_PROGRESS
0x01 TRANSACTION_STATUS_COMMITTED
0x02 TRANSACTION_STATUS_ABORTED
0x03 TRANSACTION_STATUS_SUB_COMMITTED

$ dd if=/dev/zero of=$PGDATA/pg_xact/0000 bs=8K co

unt=32

记录了32+0 的读入
记录了32+0 的写出
262144字节(262 kB)已复制，0.00102351 秒，256 MB/秒

再次启动，验证数据丢失

postgres# select * from t where n_id >=990;
n_id | c_name
------+--------
990 | 990000
991 | cs
992 | cs
993 | cs
994 | cs
995 | cs
996 | cs
997 | cs
998 | cs
999 | cs
1002 | insert

clog丢失，部分事务的影响依然得到保留

IN_PROGRESS 状态的事务对数据的操作，其他会话应该是不可见的。通过查看资料，可以了解到普通
数据元组由3部分组成，HeapTupleHeaderData结构、空值位图及用户数据。HeapTupleHeaderData
的结构如下，来源

Field Type Length Description
t_xmin TransactionId 4 bytes insert XID stamp
t_xmax TransactionId 4 bytes delete XID stamp
t_cid CommandId 4 bytes insert and/or delete CID stamp (overlays
with t_xvac)
t_xvac TransactionId 4 bytes XID for VACUUM operation moving a row
version
t_ctid ItemPointerData 6 bytes current TID of this or newer row version
t_infomask2 uint16 2 bytes number of attributes, plus various flag bits
t_infomask uint16 2 bytes various flag bits
t_hoff uint8 1 byte offset to user data

其中t_infomask也决定了行的可见性，而且t_infomask的优先级更高。一共16位二进制，每4位表示1
个含义。其中第二段用来判断行的可见性。

#define HEAP_HASNULL 0x0001 /* has null attribute(s) */
#define HEAP_HASVARWIDTH 0x0002 /* has variable-width attribute(s) */
#define HEAP_HASEXTERNAL 0x0004 /* has external stored attribute(s) */
#define HEAP_HASOID 0x0008 /* has an object-id field */
#define HEAP_XMAX_KEYSHR_LOCK 0x0010 /* xmax is a key-shared locker */
#define HEAP_COMBOCID 0x0020 /* t_cid is a combo cid */
#define HEAP_XMAX_EXCL_LOCK 0x0040 /* xmax is exclusive locker */
#define HEAP_XMAX_LOCK_ONLY 0x0080 /* xmax, if valid, is only a locker */
/* xmax is a shared locker */
#define HEAP_XMAX_SHR_LOCK (HEAP_XMAX_EXCL_LOCK | HEAP_XMAX_KEYSHR_LOCK)
#define HEAP_LOCK_MASK (HEAP_XMAX_SHR_LOCK | HEAP_XMAX_EXCL_LOCK | \
HEAP_XMAX_KEYSHR_LOCK)
#define HEAP_XMIN_COMMITTED 0x0100 /* t_xmin committed */
#define HEAP_XMIN_INVALID 0x0200 /* t_xmin invalid/aborted */
#define HEAP_XMIN_FROZEN (HEAP_XMIN_COMMITTED|HEAP_XMIN_INVALID)
#define HEAP_XMAX_COMMITTED 0x0400 /* t_xmax committed */
#define HEAP_XMAX_INVALID 0x0800 /* t_xmax invalid/aborted */
#define HEAP_XMAX_IS_MULTI 0x1000 /* t_xmax is a MultiXactId */
#define HEAP_UPDATED 0x2000 /* this is UPDATEd version of row */
#define HEAP_MOVED_OFF 0x4000 /* moved to another place by pre-9.0
* VACUUM FULL; kept for binary * upgrade
support */
#define HEAP_MOVED_IN 0x8000 /* moved from another place by pre-9.0
* VACUUM FULL; kept for binary * upgrade support
*/
#define HEAP_MOVED (HEAP_MOVED_OFF | HEAP_MOVED_IN)
#define HEAP_XACT_MASK 0xFFF0 /* visibility-related bits */

根据刚刚的实验情况看，我们大胆猜测：
t_infomask的更新时间为数据写入后的首次访问。因此在对id为1002的数据更新时，将1002的插入操
作的提交信息写入t_infomask字段。所以上述实验仅丢失对1001的插入和1002的更新。

查看源码验证
通过注释可以了解到，为了避免对clog(10以上改名为xact)日志的争用，代码从以前的立刻更新
t_infomask，改为首次访问时修改（postgres9.6版本修改,对应abase为3.6.1版本）。

* HeapTupleSatisfiesMVCC

* *
See SNAPSHOT_MVCC's definition for the intended behaviour.
* *
Notice that here, we will not update the tuple status hint bits if the
* inserting/deleting transaction is still running according to our snapshot,
* even if in reality it's committed or aborted by now. This is intentional.
* Checking the true transaction state would require access to high-traffic
* shared data structures, creating contention we'd rather do without, and it
* would not change the result of our visibility check anyway. The hint bits
* will be updated by the first visitor that has a snapshot new enough to see
* the inserting/deleting transaction as done. In the meantime, the cost of
* leaving the hint bits unset is basically that each HeapTupleSatisfiesMVCC
* call will need to run TransactionIdIsCurrentTransactionId in addition to
* XidInMVCCSnapshot (but it would have to do the latter anyway). In the old
* coding where we tried to set the hint bits as soon as possible, we instead
* did TransactionIdIsInProgress in each call --- to no avail, as long as the
* inserting/deleting transaction was still running --- which was more cycles
* and more contention on the PGXACT array.

/*
* SetHintBits()
* *
Set commit/abort hint bits on a tuple, if appropriate at this time.
* *
It is only safe to set a transaction-committed hint bit if we know the
* transaction's commit record is guaranteed to be flushed to disk before the
* buffer, or if the table is temporary or unlogged and will be obliterated by
* a crash anyway. We cannot change the LSN of the page here, because we may
* hold only a share lock on the buffer, so we can only use the LSN to
* interlock this if the buffer's LSN already is newer than the commit LSN;
* otherwise we have to just refrain from setting the hint bit until some
* future re-examination of the tuple.
* *
We can always set hint bits when marking a transaction aborted. (Some
* code in heapam.c relies on that!)
* *
Also, if we are cleaning up HEAP_MOVED_IN or HEAP_MOVED_OFF entries, then
* we can always set the hint bits, since pre-9.0 VACUUM FULL always used
* synchronous commits and didn't move tuples that weren't previously
* hinted. (This is not known by this subroutine, but is applied by its
* callers.) Note: old-style VACUUM FULL is gone, but we have to keep this
* module's support for MOVED_OFF/MOVED_IN flag bits for as long as we
* support in-place update from pre-9.0 databases.
* *
Normal commits may be asynchronous, so for those we need to get the LSN
* of the transaction and then check whether this is flushed.
* *
The caller should pass xid as the XID of the transaction to check, or
* InvalidTransactionId if no check is needed.

总结
数据备份至关重要。
行的可见性判断除了根据这行上的xmin,xmax和clog的决定，行上的t_infomask也决定了行的可
见性。且优先级高于clog。
事务修改并提交后，提交状态不会立刻写入t_infomask字段，需要在记录被首次访问时才会写入
（abase3.6.1以后）。
若clog丢失，采用dd一个全0文件的方式启动数据库，则丢失部分数据（插入后未访问，插入丢
失；删除后未访问，数据依然存在未被删除；更新后未访问，旧数据可见，更新的改变丢失）。

无数据库备份，误删利用可见性原则恢复
注：仅支持特定情况下的恢复，强调必须做好数据备份，利用备份来保障数据安全。本例更多的是方便
大家理解mvcc、vacuum以及记录可见性规则。
创建实验表
删除全部记录，模拟误删
在开启autovacuum状态下，删除表全部数据，在遇到执行autovacuum进程时，会将表全部数据清
理。这时数据就无法利用本方法恢复，所以删除后要尽快关闭数据库。

将autovacuum改为off
vi $PGDATA/postgresql.auto.conf

# 修改或增加如下配置
autovacuum = 'off'

启动数据库查看删除命令的事务id

# 本实验这里表新创建，看起来比较简单。删除的事务id只有一个,253975。get_raw_page函数第一个参
数是表名，第二个参数是page的编号，从0开始。

select t_xmax,* from heap_page_items(get_raw_page('public.t',0));
select t_xmax,* from heap_page_items(get_raw_page('public.t',1));
select t_xmax,* from heap_page_items(get_raw_page('public.t',2));
select t_xmax,* from heap_page_items(get_raw_page('public.t',3));
select t_xmax,* from heap_page_items(get_raw_page('public.t',4));

关闭数据库
$ pg_ctl stop
等待服务器进程关闭 .... 完成
服务器进程已经关闭

pg_resetwal修改下一个事务id为前面查到的误删事务id

$ pg_resetwal $PGDATA -x 253975
Write-ahead log reset

启动数据库
$ pg_ctl start
服务器进程已经启动

将误删数据备份到临时表
当前数据库下一个事务id为253975，因此事务id为253975的误删是不可见的。表内目前依然可以查询
到误删的1000条数据，这些数据的xmax为253975。

postgres# create table t_del as select * from t where xmax=253975;

再次查询t表，数据已经看不到了
因为上一个建表语句，事务id变大了1个。误删事务对数据的修改变为可见。

postgres# select * from t;
n_id | c_name
------+--------
(0 行记录)

将数据插回t表，完成数据恢复

postgres# insert into t select * from t_del;
INSERT 0 1000
postgres# select count(*) from t;
count
-------
1000
(1 行记录)

执行sql使修改生效 select pg_reload_conf();

总结
数据备份至关重要。
由于abase的vacuum机制，删除的数据，并不会立刻删掉。只是做了相关的标志。如果vacuum
一旦清理了这些数据，那么是无法恢复。
autovacuum最低执行间隔由autovacuum_naptime参数控制，默认1分钟。
运行autovacuum时，是否对表进行vacuum，由autovacuum_vacuum_scale_factor参数及
autovacuum_vacuum_threshold参数共同决定，只有同时满足dead tuple数量>=
autovacuum_vacuum_scale_factor*
reltuples(表上记录数) + autovacuum_vacuum_threshold，才会对表进行vacuum操作。

postgres# show autovacuum_naptime ;
autovacuum_naptime

postgres# show autovacuum_vacuum_scale_factor ;
autovacuum_vacuum_scale_factor
