[HACKERS] FailedAssertion

Hi together, I'm currently debugging my developed AM and are running into this problem: TRAP: FailedAssertion("!(((bool) (((void*)(tid) != ((void *)0)) && ((tid)->ip_posid != 0", File: "indexam.c", Line: 488) Can anybody explain what it means? I'm having difficulties to understand what went

Hi again pgsql-hackers, my experimental index which I am developing still has some problems. Perhaps the list has some advices or hints where this error might occur: WARNING: could not write block 6 of base/459204/483963 DETAIL: Multiple failures --- write error might be permanent. directly fo

Hi list, currently I am obtaining a new block at the end of an index with: buf = ReadBuffer(rel, P_NEW); but it throws: ERROR: unexpected data beyond EOF in block 0 of relation base/11874/156053 HINT: This has been seen to occur with buggy kernels; consider updating your system. system is up

Hi, my new AM starts working..., calling something like CREATE INDEX idx ON films USING ebi (did) returns now: ERROR: unexpected EBI relation size: 3, should be 4294967295 The second argument looks for me like max uint32... there might be somehting wrong here I think? Is there somehting wrong

Hi, sadly, so far my search in the source code wasn't very successfull on this topic. So, how can I construct a Datum out of a string? Greetz, Yves -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsq

Hi list, I really have problems with the catalog entries for my AM. In the doc (http://developer.postgresql.org/pgdocs/postgres/index-catalog.html) it says "anyone able to write a new access method is expected to be competent to insert an appropriate row for themselves." :-) This is true so far fo

[HACKERS] operator classes for index?

Hi, again index access methods, can somebody shed some light into operator classes for indexes? The documentation is an entry point, but after reading I still don't have a clue how exactly they are used and created? Perhaps somebody with great knowledge can supply an 101 on opeartor classes? Becau

Re: [HACKERS] What Index Access Method Functions are really needed?

That is exactly the point, Kevin, I read the documentation and found out that "amgettuple" and "amgetbitmap" are optional. I just wondered if there is more information about this topic? Additionally, I can not find "amcostestimate" in hash.h or anywhere, or am I missing something? So "All of them"

[HACKERS] What Index Access Method Functions are really needed?

Hi, another question regarding indexes. Sadly I can't find enough info in the documentation. Which of the functions are needed in order for a index to work? I am developing a prototype so it would be great if not all of the functions have to be implemented. E.g. are amcostestimate or amoptions nee
