| 5 | * typeinfo.h - per-type behaviour for a prism-indexed column | ||
| 6 | * | ||
| 7 | * The access method indexes more than one vector type, so every path that | ||
| 8 | * reads an indexed value needs to know how to reach the float32 arrays the | ||
| 9 | * distance and RaBitQ kernels work on. That knowledge is one descriptor per | ||
| 10 | * type, and the descriptor comes from the *opclass* -- support function | ||
| 11 | * PRISM_TYPE_INFO_PROC -- not from inspecting the column. | ||
| 12 | * | ||
| 13 | * Asking the opclass matters beyond tidiness. It is the same authority the | ||
| 14 | * planner consulted when it decided the index applied, so the access method | ||
| 15 | * cannot disagree with the planner about a column an index was built on. | ||
| 16 | * Deriving the type from the column means answering "which type is this?" by | ||
| 17 | * name or by OID, and both answers are wrong somewhere: PostgreSQL restricts | ||
| 18 | * the search path around CREATE INDEX and index_build, so a name lookup fails | ||
| 19 | * during a build -- exactly where a wrong answer corrupts an index -- and OID | ||
| 20 | * equality rejects a binary-coercible column the opclass itself accepted, a | ||
| 21 | * pgvector `halfvec` column being the case in point. It also makes a new type | ||
| 22 | * an opclass plus a descriptor, with no new branch in the access method. | ||
| 23 | * | ||
| 24 | * The contract is deliberately narrower than pgvector's, which keeps values as | ||
| 25 | * opaque Datums and reaches them only through opclass functions. That approach | ||
| 26 | * would work here too -- quantization could be a support function taking a | ||
| 27 | * Datum, the shape pgvector already uses for normalize -- so this is a choice | ||
| 28 | * rather than a limit. Two reasons for it: | ||
| 29 | * | ||
| 30 | * - The quantization and distance kernels live in src/index, src/algo and | ||
| 31 | * src/quant and are compiled into the standalone build, which has no fmgr, | ||
| 32 | * no Datum and no type OIDs. A Datum-typed seam would have to be shimmed or | ||
| 33 | * duplicated there, and the point of standalone is to measure the same | ||
| 34 | * code. | ||
| 35 | * | ||
| 36 | * - The conversion would not disappear, only move. The kernels are element- | ||
| 37 | * wise SIMD over contiguous float32, so a Datum-typed quantize would widen | ||
| 38 | * to float32 inside the callback -- the same work, done per call instead of | ||
| 39 | * once at the boundary, and without the shared Vec32TypeOps to do it. | ||
| 40 | * | ||
| 41 | * Where this contract would need revisiting is a type for which "widen to | ||
| 42 | * dense float32" is the wrong shape -- a sparse or bit-packed vector, both of | ||
| 43 | * which pgvector's hnsw does support. Dense float types fit it exactly. | ||
| 44 | * | ||
| 45 | * The conversion itself is not new here: Vec32TypeOps already covers | ||
| 46 | * float32 and float16 for k-means and quantization, and is shared with | ||
| 47 | * standalone. This descriptor binds an opclass to one of those vtables and | ||
| 48 | * adds the two things only PostgreSQL needs -- how to unwrap a Datum, and | ||
| 49 | * which centroid format the type implies. Per docs/development.md, the | ||
| 50 | * conversion runs at the "Specialized" tier: one vtable call per vector to | ||
| 51 | * obtain a float32 view, then inlined f32 kernels over it. | ||
| 52 | * | ||
| 53 | * A descriptor describes its opclass's own input type. A cross-type ordering | ||
| 54 | * operator whose argument had a different layout would break that; every | ||
| 55 | * family member prism declares or adds shares its opclass's layout. | ||
