From 5ac0e8ce0c3cdb973044b70a7b7f8838981ac974 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Andrew Kim <andrew.kim@intel.com>
Date: Thu, 16 Oct 2025 19:39:48 -0700
Subject: [PATCH] Enable autovectorizing pg_checksum_block with AVX2 runtime
 detection

Add SIMD-optimized checksum calculation using AVX2 instructions when
available, with automatic fallback to portable implementation. Uses
__builtin_cpu_supports() for runtime CPU feature detection.

Key improvements:
- Consolidate checksum logic into single src/port/checksum.c file
- Implement safe function pointer dispatch instead of runtime patching
- Remove complex macros in favor of explicit function declarations
- Add comprehensive AVX2 compiler support detection in configure
- Maintain full backward compatibility on non-AVX2 systems

Performance testing shows significant improvement in checksum calculation
throughput on AVX2-capable processors while maintaining code safety
and PostgreSQL coding standards compliance.

Addresses reviewer feedback on code organization, safety, and maintainability.

From fe7d2e4061042c4fd30c9c7095889fcf777be105 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Andrew kim <andrew.kim@intel.com>
Date: Sat, 18 Oct 2025 12:13:50 -0700
Subject: [PATCH 1/2] Enable autovectorizing pg_checksum_block with AVX2
 runtime-detection

        1. Compiler flags: Moved CFLAGS_UNROLL_LOOPS and CFLAGS_VECTORIZE to
           proper port module build files

        2. Header organization: Relocated headers from src/include/storage/
           to src/include/port/ for correct module classification

        3. External compatibility: Made checksum_impl.h fully self-contained with
           inline implementations, required constants, and external interface

        4. Simplified AVX2 detection: Replaced complex CPUID logic with
           __builtin_cpu_supports('avx2')

        5. File consolidation: Removed duplicate backend/storage/page/checksum.c,
           moved pg_checksum_page to unified port implementation

        6. Documentation: Restored comprehensive algorithm comments

        7. Comment clarity: Replaced confusing ISA-specific references

Subject: [PATCH 1/1] Add AVX2 optimization for page checksum calculation

This patch adds runtime AVX2 detection and optimization for PostgreSQL's
page checksum algorithm while maintaining full backward compatibility.

Key changes:
- Add cross-platform AVX2 CPU detection with XSAVE/YMM register checks
- Implement function pointer dispatch pattern following PostgreSQL conventions
- Use compiler auto-vectorization with pg_attribute_target("avx2")
- Add build system support in both autotools and meson
- Maintain external program compatibility (pg_filedump, etc.)

The implementation uses the same algorithm for both default and AVX2 paths,
allowing the compiler to automatically vectorize the AVX2 version while
preserving identical results. Runtime detection ensures optimal performance
on supported hardware with graceful fallback on older systems.

Addresses reviewer feedback on configure test simplification, Windows
compatibility, and PostgreSQL coding conventions.

From f9ae422bec79b965e58382a20da14621c10d2c19 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Andrew Kim <andrew.kim@intel.com>
Date: Wed, 5 Nov 2025 00:00:20 -0800
Subject: [PATCH 1/2] Move platform-specific checksum code from header to
 source

Key architectural changes:

checksum_impl.h (simplified for external programs):
- Contains only basic FNV-1a implementation
- No platform-specific code (AVX2, CPUID, intrinsics)
- External programs get portable standalone implementation
- Uses static functions (no symbol conflicts with checksum.c)

checksum.c (full implementation for PostgreSQL):
- Includes checksum_impl.h for common definitions
- Contains all platform-specific code (AVX2, CPUID detection)
- Implements runtime dispatch based on CPU features
- Provides public interfaces wrapping the basic implementation

Architecture benefits:
- Follows PostgreSQL principle: platform code belongs in .c files
- No code duplication (checksum.c includes checksum_impl.h)
- Clean separation: external programs vs internal optimization
- Maintains backward compatibility for external tools

Trade-offs:
- External programs use basic implementation only (no AVX2)
- PostgreSQL internal code gets full optimization

Subject: [PATCH 3/3] Benchmark code for postgres checksums

Add pg_checksum_bench extension for performance testing of checksum
implementations with AVX2 optimization.

Key features:
- PostgreSQL extension for benchmarking checksum performance
- Tests pg_checksum_block_choose() with runtime AVX2 dispatch

Subject: [PATCH v10 1/3] Benchmark code for postgres checksums

Add pg_checksum_bench extension for performance testing of checksum
implementations with AVX2 optimization.

Key features:
- PostgreSQL extension for benchmarking checksum performance
- Tests pg_checksum_block_choose() with runtime AVX2 dispatch
