library cache pin原理
library cache pin
=================
原理
~~~~~
An Oracle instance has a library cache that contains the description of
different types of objects e.g. cursors, indexes, tables, views, procedures,
… Those objects cannot be changed when they are used. They are locked by a
mechanism based on library locks and pins. A session that need to use an object
will first acquire a library lock in a certain mode (null, shared or exclusive)
on the object, in order to prevent other sessions from accessing the same
object (e.g. exclusive lock when recompiling a package or view) or to maintain
the object definition for a long time. Locking an object is sometimes referred
as the job to locate it in the library cache and lock it in a certain mode.
If the session wants to modify or examine the object, it must acquire after
the lock also a pin in a certain mode (again null, shared or exclusive).
Each SQL statement that want to use/modify objects that are locked or pinned
and whose lock/pin mode is incompatible with the requested mode, will wait
on events like ‘library cache pin’ or ‘library cache lock’ until a timeout
occurs. The timeout normally occurs after 5 minutes and the SQL statement
then ends with an ORA-4021. If a deadlock is detected, an ORA-4020 is given
back.
Dealing with slow downs related to “mysterious” library cache pins
and load locks we should look for the reason of the database object
invalidations. They are likely to be triggered by actions causing
changes to “LAST_DDL” attribute of database objects that have other
dependent ones. Typically they are the object maintenance operations -
ALTER, GRANT, REVOKE, replacing views, etc. This behavior is described
in Oracle Server Application Developer’s Guide as object dependency
maintenance.
After object invalidation, Oracle tries to recompile the object at the
time of the first access to it. It may be a problem in case when other
sessions have pinned the object to the library cache. It is obvious that
it is more likely to occur with more active users and with more complex
dependencies (eg. many cross-dependent packages or package bodies).
In some cases waiting for object recompilation may even take hours
blocking all the sessions trying to access it.
ORA-04021 timeout occurred while waiting to lock object %s%s%s%s%s”.
Cause: While trying to lock a library object, a time-out occurred.
Action: Retry the operation later.
ORA-04020 deadlock detected while trying to lock object %s%s%s%s%s
Cause: While trying to lock a library object, a deadlock is detected.
Action: Retry the operation later.
(see <Note.166924.1>)
2.   Which views can be used to detect library locking problems?
—————————————————————-
Different views can be used to detect pin/locks:
DBA_KGLLOCK : one row for each lock or pin of the instance
-KGLLKUSE session address
-KGLLKHDL Pin/lock handle
-KGLLKMOD/KGLLKREQ Holding/requested mode
0           no lock/pin held
1           null mode
2           share mode
3           exclusive mode
-KGLLKTYPE Pin/lock
(created via the $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/catblock.sql)
V$ACCESS : one row for each object locked by any user
-SID       session sid
-OWNER     username
-OBJECT    object name
-TYPE      object type
V$DB_OBJECT_CACHE : one row for each object in the library cache
-OWNER         object owner
-NAME          object name or cursor text
-TYPE          object type
-LOCKS         number of locks on this object
-PINS          number of pins on this object
DBA_DDL_LOCKS : one row for each object that is locked (exception made of the cursors)
-SESSION_ID
-OWNER
-NAME
-TYPE
-MODE_HELD
-MODE_REQUESTED
V$SESSION_WAIT : each session waiting on a library cache pin or lock is blocked by some other session
-p1 = object address
-p2 = lock/pin address
3.   How to find out why an ORA-4021 occurs?
——————————————–
When you execute the statement that generates the ORA-4021, it is possible
during the delay of 5 minutes to detect the reason for the blocking situation.
Following query can be used to find the blocking and waiting sessions:
FYI: You need to run the script called “catblock.sql” first.
=== This script can be found in: $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/catblock.sql
select /*+ ordered */ w1.sid waiting_session,
h1.sid holding_session,
w.kgllktype lock_or_pin,
w.kgllkhdl address,
decode(h.kgllkmod, 0, ‘None’, 1, ‘Null’, 2, ‘Share’, 3, ‘Exclusive’,
‘Unknown’) mode_held,
decode(w.kgllkreq, 0, ‘None’, 1, ‘Null’, 2, ‘Share’, 3, ‘Exclusive’,
‘Unknown’) mode_requested
from dba_kgllock w, dba_kgllock h, v$session w1, v$session h1
where
(((h.kgllkmod != 0) and (h.kgllkmod != 1)
and ((h.kgllkreq = 0) or (h.kgllkreq = 1)))
and
(((w.kgllkmod = 0) or (w.kgllkmod= 1))
and ((w.kgllkreq != 0) and (w.kgllkreq != 1))))
and w.kgllktype         = h.kgllktype
and w.kgllkhdl         = h.kgllkhdl
and w.kgllkuse     =   w1.saddr
and h.kgllkuse     =   h1.saddr
/
The result looks like:
WAITING_SESSION HOLDING_SESSION lock ADDRESS MODE_HELD MODE_REQU
————— ————— —- ——– ——— ———
16              12 Pin 03FA2270 Share     Exclusive
The object that is locked can be found with v$object_dependency and
should be the same as the one mentioned in the ORA-4021 error message.
e.g.
select to_name from v$object_dependency where to_address = ‘03FA2270′;
should give:
TO_NAME
————-
DBMS_PIPE
You can find which library objects are used by each session via following
queries, e.g.
a. for the blocked session:
select distinct kglnaobj from x$kgllk where
kgllkuse in (select saddr from v$session where sid = 16);
b. for the blocking session
select distinct kglnaobj from x$kgllk where
kgllkuse in (select saddr from v$session where sid = 12);
One of those objects can be the cursor or statement that each session is
executing/trying to execute.
You can also use the $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/utldtree.sql utility to find out
how the dependency tree looks like and which objects are dependent on e.g.
DBMS_PIPE. One of those objects will be the sql statement of the holding
session. A variant script on utldtree.sql stands in [NOTE:139594.1] and
gives which objects an object depends on.
Library cache pins are used to manage library cache concurrency.
Pinning an object causes the heaps to be loaded into memory (if not already loaded).
PINS can be acquired in NULL, SHARE or EXCLUSIVE modes and can be considered like a special form of lock.
A wait for a “library cache pin” implies some other session holds that PIN in an incompatible mode.
P1 = Handle address
P2 = Pin address
P3 = Encoded Mode & Namespace
·Handle address
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Use P1RAW rather than P1
This is the handle of the library cache object which the waiting session wants to acquire a pin on.
查找library cache对象
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The actual object being waited on can be found using
SELECT kglnaown “Owner”, kglnaobj “Object”
FROM x$kglob
WHERE kglhdadr=’&P1RAW’
;
·Pin address
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Use P2RAW rather than P2
This is the address of the PIN itself.
·Encoded Mode & Namespace
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In Oracle 7.0 - 8.1.7 inclusive the value is 10 * Mode + Namespace.
In Oracle 9.0 - 9.2 inclusive the value is 100 * Mode + Namespace.
Where:
Mode is the mode in which the pin is wanted. This is a number thus:
o        2 - Share mode
o        3 - Exclusive mode
Namespace is just the namespace number of the namespace in the library cache in which the required object lives:
o        0 SQL Area
o        1 Table / Procedure / Function / Package Header
o        2 Package Body
o        3 Trigger
o        4 Index
o        5 Cluster
o        6 Object
o        7 Pipe
o        13 Java Source
o        14 Java Resource
o        32 Java Data
对于’Consistent Gets’,'’Physical Reads’和’DB Block Gets’的理解和解释
在Oracle的文档中有这样的解释：
db block gets：Number of times a CURRENT block was requested.
consistent gets：Number of times a consistent read was requested for a block.
physical reads：Total number of data blocks read from disk. This number equals the value of “physical reads direct” plus all reads into buffer cache.
———————————————
针对以上3个概念进行的说明解释及关系如下：
1、DB Block Gets（当前请求的块数目）
当前模式块意思就是在操作中正好提取的块数目，而不是在一致性读的情况下而产生的块数。正常的情况下，一个查询提取的块是在查询开始的那个时间点上存在的数据块，当前块是在这个时刻存在的数据块，而不是在这个时间点之前或者之后的数据块数目。
2、Consistent Gets（数据请求总数在回滚段Buffer中的数据一致性读所需要的数据块）
这里的概念是在处理你这个操作的时候需要在一致性读状态上处理多少个块，这些块产生的主要原因是因为由于在你查询的过程中，由于其他会话对数据块进行操 作，而对所要查询的块有了修改，但是由于我们的查询是在这些修改之前调用的，所以需要对回滚段中的数据块的前映像进行查询，以保证数据的一致性。这样就产 生了一致性读。
3、Physical Reads（物理读）
就是从磁盘上读取数据块的数量，其产生的主要原因是：
1、 在数据库高速缓存中不存在这些块
2、 全表扫描
3、 磁盘排序
它们三者之间的关系大致可概括为：
逻辑读指的是Oracle从内存读到的数据块数量。一般来说是’consistent gets’ + ‘db block gets’。当在内存中找不到所需的数据块的话就需要从磁盘中获取，于是就产生了’phsical reads’。
How Do I get Started with Oracle?
November 22, 2006 at 18:23 · Filed under This is actually a fairly common question and not one that is often addressed adequately. The following is the, slightly edited text of a reply sent by Howard Rogers http://www.dizwell.com/ to someone who asked this exact question. The post is so good, that with Howard’s permission I reproduce it here. The ‘here’ referred to below is the usenet group comp.databases.oracle.server which can be reached via the link on the left or via your favourite newsreader.
Be patient. You’re starting from scratch, so there’s a lot to learn, and much of it may seem very strange to begin with. Visit The online documentation set to get access to the latest Oracle documentation (though your CD set will probably include it already). Read the official Concepts Guide. Then visit sites such as that maintained by Jonathan Lewis, and Ask Tom. Visit Google and hunt around for advice. Take nothing on face value: test it yourself to destruction. Lurk here for a month or two, and try and pick up on the sort of questions being asked, and ask yourself how *you* would answer them. Then see what answers actually come through, and compare. When you’re feeling brave, post some of your answers and see how they are taken by people.
Buy books. Anything with the names Jonathan Lewis, or Thomas Kyte on the cover are *extremely* good bets for accurate advice. O’Reilly are good. As are Apress (used to be Wrox) Avoid anything that mentions OCP (Oracle Certified Professional). The qualification is not worth a damn, and leads you straight into myth territory.
If you can afford an Oracle training course (most people can’t), go. Go to DBA Fundamantals I if you can… the architecture stuff they cover on that is extremely good (but you play Russian Roulette with the instructor you get. If the guy starts reading from the course notes in the first hour, then leave and ask to be scheduled with someone else at a later date). DBA Fundamentals II is quite good, but is light on networking, and the Backup and Recovery stuff is not difficult. Don’t bother with Performance Tuning, because it’s a badly-written course that addresses none of the real issues. I think the general thing is to get involved and to get communicating, and you’ve already started that by posting here. Just don’t stop now.
The other general thing is to test and test and test, and verify for yourself. Experiment, and stuff the consequences. The other thing I would suggest, given your background, is that you learn Oracle at the command line, and learn *Oracle*. Worry about putting a graphical front-end app. on top of Oracle later. When you’ve got command-line Oracle sorted, the graphical front-ends will come as second nature, and will be better for the understanding you have of the back-end architecture and inner-workings.
And finally, enjoy yourself. Oracle is quite a majestic system. It’s got an internal logic that is beautiful, and the sense of power that you can get from controlling those internal workings can be quite exhilerating. So have fun.
PL/SQL单行函数和组函数详解
函数是一种有零个或多个参数并且有一个返回值的程序。在SQL中Oracle内建了一系列函数，这些函数都可被称为SQL或PL/SQL语句，函数主要分为两大类：
单行函数
组函数
本文将讨论如何利用单行函数以及使用规则。
SQL中的单行函数
SQL和PL/SQL中自带很多类型的函数，有字符、数字、日期、转换、和混合型等多种函数用于处理单行数据，因此这些都可被统称为单行函数。这些函 数均可用于SELECT,WHERE、ORDER BY等子句中，例如下面的例子中就包含了TO_CHAR,UPPER,SOUNDEX等单行函数。
SELECT ename,TO_CHAR(hiredate,’day,DD-Mon-YYYY’)
FROM emp
Where UPPER(ename) Like ‘AL%’
ORDER BY SOUNDEX(ename)
单行函数也可以在其他语句中使用，如update的SET子句，INSERT的VALUES子句，DELET的WHERE子句,认证考试特别注意在SELECT语句中使用这些函数，所以我们的注意力也集中在SELECT语句中。
NULL和单行函数
在如何理解NULL上开始是很困难的，就算是一个很有经验的人依然对此感到困惑。NULL值表示一个未知数据或者一个空值，算术操作符的任何一个操作 数为NULL值，结果均为提个NULL值,这个规则也适合很多函数，只有CONCAT,DECODE,DUMP,NVL,REPLACE在调用了NULL 参数时能够返回非NULL值。在这些中NVL函数时最重要的，因为他能直接处理NULL值，NVL有两个参数：NVL(x1,x2),x1和x2都式表达 式，当x1为null时返回X2,否则返回x1。
下面我们看看emp数据表它包含了薪水、奖金两项，需要计算总的补偿
column name emp_id salary bonus
key type pk
nulls/unique nn,u nn
fk table
datatype number number number
length 11.2 11.2
不是简单的将薪水和奖金加起来就可以了，如果某一行是null值那么结果就将是null，比如下面的例子：
update emp
set salary=(salary+bonus)*1.1
这个语句中，雇员的工资和奖金都将更新为一个新的值，但是如果没有奖金，即 salary + null,那么就会得出错误的结论，这个时候就要使用nvl函数来排除null值的影响。
所以正确的语句是：
update emp
set salary=(salary+nvl(bonus,0)*1.1
单行字符串函数
单行字符串函数用于操作字符串数据，他们大多数有一个或多个参数，其中绝大多数返回字符串
ASCII()
c1是一字符串，返回c1第一个字母的ASCII码，他的逆函数是CHR()
SELECT ASCII(’A') BIG_A,ASCII(’z') BIG_z FROM emp
BIG_A BIG_z
65 122
CHR(＜i＞)[NCHAR_CS]
i是一个数字，函数返回十进制表示的字符
select CHR(65),CHR(122),CHR(223) FROM emp
CHR65 CHR122 CHR223
A z B
CONCAT(,)
c1,c2均为字符串，函数将c2连接到c1的后面，如果c1为null,将返回c2.如果c2为null,则返回c1，如果c1、c2都为null，则返回null。他和操作符||返回的结果相同
select concat(’slobo ‘,’Svoboda’) username from dual
username
slobo Syoboda
INITCAP()
c1为一字符串。函数将每个单词的第一个字母大写其它字母小写返回。单词由空格，控制字符，标点符号限制。
select INITCAP(’veni,vedi,vici’) Ceasar from dual
Ceasar
Veni,Vedi,Vici
INSTR(,[,＜i＞[,]])
c1,c2均为字符串，i,j为整数。函数返回c2在c1中第j次出现的位置，搜索从c1的第i个字符开始。当没有发现需要的字符时返回0,如果i为负数，那么搜索将从右到左进行，但是位置的计算还是从左到右，i和j的缺省值为1.
select INSTR(’Mississippi’,'i’,3,3) from dual
INSTR(’MISSISSIPPI’,'I’,3,3)
11
select INSTR(’Mississippi’,'i’,-2,3) from dual
INSTR(’MISSISSIPPI’,'I’,3,3)
2
INSTRB(,[,i[,j])
与INSTR（）函数一样，只是他返回的是字节，对于单字节INSTRB()等于INSTR()
LENGTH()
c1为字符串，返回c1的长度，如果c1为null，那么将返回null值。
select LENGTH(’Ipso Facto’) ergo from dual
ergo
10
LENGTHb()
与LENGTH()一样，返回字节。

LPAD(,＜i＞[,])
c1,c2均为字符串，i为整数。在c1的左侧用c2字符串补足致长度i,可多次重复，如果i小于c1的长度，那么只返回i那么长的c1字符，其他的将被截去。c2的缺省值为单空格，参见RPAD。
select LPAD(answer,7,'’) padded,answer unpadded from question;
PADDED UNPADDED

INSTANCE　　在会话连接后，返回实例标示符。该值只用于运行Parallel 服务器并且有 多个实例的情况下使用。
LANGUAGE　　返回语言、地域、数据库设置的字符集。
LANG　　　　返回语言名称的ISO缩写。
TERMINAL　　为当前会话使用的终端或计算机返回操作系统的标示符。
VSIZE()
x是一个表达式。返回x内部表示的字节数。
SQL中的组函数
组函数也叫集合函数，返回基于多个行的单一结果，行的准确数量无法确定，除非查询被执行并且所有的结果都被包含在内。与单行函数不同的是，在解析时所有的行都是已知的。由于这种差别使组函数与单行函数有在要求和行为上有微小的差异.
组（多行）函数
与单行函数相比，oracle提供了丰富的基于组的，多行的函数。这些函数可以在select或select的having子句中使用，当用于select子串时常常都和GROUP BY一起使用。
AVG([{DISYINCT|ALL}])
返回数值的平均值。缺省设置为ALL.
SELECT AVG(sal),AVG(ALL sal),AVG(DISTINCT sal) FROM scott.emp
AVG(SAL) AVG(ALL SAL) AVG(DISTINCT SAL)
1877.94118 1877.94118 1916.071413
COUNT({*|DISTINCT|ALL} )
返回查询中行的数目，缺省设置是ALL,*表示返回所有的行。
MAX([{DISTINCT|ALL}])
返回选择列表项目的最大值，如果x是字符串数据类型，他返回一个VARCHAR2数据类型，如果X是一个DATA数据类型，返回一个日期，如果X是numeric数据类型，返回一个数字。注意distinct和all不起作用，应为最大值与这两种设置是相同的。
MIN([{DISTINCT|ALL}])
返回选择列表项目的最小值。
STDDEV([{DISTINCT|ALL}])
返回选者的列表项目的标准差，所谓标准差是方差的平方根。
SUM([{DISTINCT|ALL}])
返回选择列表项目的数值的总和。
VARIANCE([{DISTINCT|ALL}])
返回选择列表项目的统计方差。
用GROUP BY给数据分组
正如题目暗示的那样组函数就是操作那些已经分好组的数据，我们告诉数据库用GROUP BY怎样给数据分组或者分类，当我们在SELECT语句的SELECT子句中使用组函数时，我们必须把为分组或非常数列放置在GROUP BY子句中，如果没有用group by进行专门处理，那么缺省的分类是将整个结果设为一类。
select stat,counter(*) zip_count from zip_codes GROUP BY state;
ST ZIP_COUNT
– ———
AK 360
AL 1212
AR 1309
AZ 768
CA 3982
在这个例子中，我们用state字段分类；如果我们要将结果按照zip_codes排序,可以用ORDER BY语句，ORDER BY子句可以使用列或组函数。
select stat,counter(*) zip_count from zip_codes GROUP BY state ORDER BY COUNT(*) DESC;
ST COUNT(*)
– ——–
NY 4312
PA 4297
TX 4123

用HAVING子句限制分组数据
现在你已经知道了在查询的SELECT语句和ORDER BY子句中使用主函数，组函数只能用于两个子串中，组函数不能用于WHERE子串中，例如下面的查询是错误的 ：
错误
SELECT sales_clerk,SUN(sale_amount) FROM gross_sales WHERE sales_dept=’OUTSIDE’ AND SUM(sale_amount)>10000 GROUP BY sales_clerk
这个语句中数据库不知道SUM()是什么，当我们需要指示数据库对行分组，然后限制分组后的行的输出时，正确的方法是使用HAVING语句：
SELECT sales_clerk,SUN(sale_amount)
FROM gross_sales
WHERE sales_dept=’OUTSIDE’
GROUP BY sales_clerk
HAVING SUM(sale_amount)>10000;
嵌套函数
函数可以嵌套。一个函数的输出可以是另一个函数的输入。操作数有一个可继承的执行过程。但函数的优先权只是基于位置，函数遵循由内到外，由左到右的原则。嵌套技术一般用于象DECODE这样的能被用于逻辑判断语句IF….THEN…ELSE的函数。
嵌套函数可以包括在组函数中嵌套单行函数，或者组函数嵌套入单行函数或组函数中。比如下面的例子：
SELECT deptno, GREATEST(COUNT(DISTINCT job),COUNT(DISTINCT mgr) cnt,
COUNT(DISTINCT job) jobs,
COUNT(DISTINCT mgr) mgrs
FROM emp
GROUP BY deptno;
DEPTNO CNT JOBS MGRS
