bitmap. This is extracted from Greg Stark's posix_fadvise patch; it seems
worth committing separately, since it's potentially useful independently of
posix_fadvise.

GetOldestXmin() instead of RecentGlobalXmin; this is safer because we do not
depend on the latter being correctly set elsewhere, and while it is more
expensive, this code path is not performance-critical. This is a real
risk for autovacuum, because it can execute whole cycles without doing
a single vacuum, which would mean that RecentGlobalXmin would stay at its
initialization value, FirstNormalTransactionId, causing a bogus value to be
inserted in pg_database. This bug could explain some recent reports of
failure to truncate pg_clog.
At the same time, change the initialization of RecentGlobalXmin to
InvalidTransactionId, and ensure that it's set to something else whenever
it's going to be used. Using it as FirstNormalTransactionId in HOT page
pruning could incur in data loss. InitPostgres takes care of setting it
to a valid value, but the extra checks are there to prevent "special"
backends from behaving in unusual ways.

corresponding struct definitions. This allows other headers to avoid including
certain highly-loaded headers such as rel.h and relscan.h, instead using just
relcache.h, heapam.h or genam.h, which are more lightweight and thus cause less
unnecessary dependencies.

consistent. OffsetNumberNext() has some casting that makes it useful.

unnecessary #include lines in it. Also, move some tuple routine prototypes and
macros to htup.h, which allows removal of heapam.h inclusion from some .c
files.
For this to work, a new header file access/sysattr.h needed to be created,
initially containing attribute numbers of system columns, for pg_dump usage.
While at it, make contrib ltree, intarray and hstore header files more
consistent with our header style.

indexscan always occurs in one call, and the results are returned in a
TIDBitmap instead of a limited-size array of TIDs. This should improve
speed a little by reducing AM entry/exit overhead, and it is necessary
infrastructure if we are ever to support bitmap indexes.
In an only slightly related change, add support for TIDBitmaps to preserve
(somewhat lossily) the knowledge that particular TIDs reported by an index
need to have their quals rechecked when the heap is visited. This facility
is not really used yet; we'll need to extend the forced-recheck feature to
plain indexscans before it's useful, and that hasn't been coded yet.
The intent is to use it to clean up 8.3's horrid @@@ kluge for text search
with weighted queries. There might be other uses in future, but that one
alone is sufficient reason.
Heikki Linnakangas, with some adjustments by me.

tqual.h into heapam.h. This makes all inclusion of tqual.h explicit.
I also sorted alphabetically the includes on some source files.

snapmgmt.c file for the former. The header files have also been reorganized
in three parts: the most basic snapshot definitions are now in a new file
snapshot.h, and the also new snapmgmt.h keeps the definitions for snapmgmt.c.
tqual.h has been reduced to the bare minimum.
This patch is just a first step towards managing live snapshots within a
transaction; there is no functionality change.
Per my proposal to pgsql-patches on 20080318191940.GB27458@alvh.no-ip.org and
subsequent discussion.

columns, and the new version can be stored on the same heap page, we no longer
generate extra index entries for the new version. Instead, index searches
follow the HOT-chain links to ensure they find the correct tuple version.
In addition, this patch introduces the ability to "prune" dead tuples on a
per-page basis, without having to do a complete VACUUM pass to recover space.
VACUUM is still needed to clean up dead index entries, however.

than two independent bits (one of which was never used in heap pages anyway,
or at least hadn't been in a very long time). This gives us flexibility to
add the HOT notions of redirected and dead item pointers without requiring
anything so klugy as magic values of lp_off and lp_len. The state values
are chosen so that for the states currently in use (pre-HOT) there is no
change in the physical representation.

pseudo HeapScanDesc created for a bitmap heap scan. This avoids some useless
overhead during a bitmap scan startup, in particular invoking the syncscan
code. (We might someday want to do that, but right now it's merely useless
contention for shared memory, to say nothing of possibly pushing useful
entries out of syncscan's small LRU list.) This also allows elimination of
ugly pgstat_discount_heap_scan() kluge.

and aborted transactions have different effects; also teach it not to assume
that prepared transactions are always committed.
Along the way, simplify the pgstats API by tying counting directly to
Relations; I cannot detect any redeeming social value in having stats
pointers in HeapScanDesc and IndexScanDesc structures. And fix a few
corner cases in which counts might be missed because the relation's
pgstat_info pointer hadn't been set.

back-stamped for this.

ps_TupFromTlist in plan nodes that make use of it. This was being done
correctly in join nodes and Result nodes but not in any relation-scan nodes.
Bug would lead to bogus results if a set-returning function appeared in the
targetlist of a subquery that could be rescanned after partial execution,
for example a subquery within EXISTS(). Bug has been around forever :-(
... surprising it wasn't reported before.

by creating a reference-count mechanism, similar to what we did a long time
ago for catcache entries. The back branches have an ugly solution involving
lots of extra copies, but this way is more efficient. Reference counting is
only applied to tupdescs that are actually in caches --- there seems no need
to use it for tupdescs that are generated in the executor, since they'll go
away during plan shutdown by virtue of being in the per-query memory context.

any use in the past many years, we'd have made some effort to include
them in all executor node types; but in fact they were only in
nodeAppend.c and nodeIndexscan.c, up until I copied nodeIndexscan.c's
occurrence into the new bitmap node types. Remove some other unused
macros in execdebug.h, too. Some day the whole header probably ought to
go away in favor of better-designed facilities.

bits indicating which optional capabilities can actually be exercised
at runtime. This will allow Sort and Material nodes, and perhaps later
other nodes, to avoid unnecessary overhead in common cases.
This commit just adds the infrastructure and arranges to pass the correct
flag values down to plan nodes; none of the actual optimizations are here
yet. I'm committing this separately in case anyone wants to measure the
added overhead. (It should be negligible.)

relation if it's already been locked by execMain.c as either a result
relation or a FOR UPDATE/SHARE relation. This avoids an extra trip to
the shared lock manager state. Per my suggestion yesterday.

child plan nodes until we have acquired lock on the relation to scan.
The relative order of initialization of plan nodes isn't real important in
other cases, but it's critical here because one is supposed to lock a
relation before its indexes, not vice versa. The original coding was at
least vulnerable to deadlock against DROP INDEX, and perhaps worse things.

when we first read the page, rather than checking them one at a time.
This allows us to take and release the buffer content lock just once
per page, instead of once per tuple. Since it's a shared lock the
contention penalty for holding the lock longer shouldn't be too bad.
We can safely do this only when using an MVCC snapshot; else the
assumption that visibility won't change over time is uncool. Therefore
there are now two code paths depending on the snapshot type. I also
made the same change in nodeBitmapHeapscan.c, where it can be done always
because we only support MVCC snapshots for bitmap scans anyway.
Also make some incidental cleanups in the APIs of these functions.
Per a suggestion from Qingqing Zhou.

a TupleTableSlot: instead of calling ExecClearTuple, inline the needed
operations, so that we can avoid redundant steps. In particular, when
the old and new tuples are both on the same disk page, avoid releasing
and re-acquiring the buffer pin --- this saves work in both the bufmgr
and ResourceOwner modules. To make this improvement actually useful,
partially revert a change I made on 2004-04-21 that caused SeqNext
et al to call ExecClearTuple before ExecStoreTuple. The motivation
for that, to avoid grabbing the BufMgrLock separately for releasing
the old buffer and grabbing the new one, no longer applies. My
profiling says that this saves about 5% of the CPU time for an
all-in-memory seqscan.

generated by bitmap index scans. Along the way, simplify and speed up
the code for counting sequential and index scans; it was both confusing
and inefficient to be taking care of that in the per-tuple loops, IMHO.

which is neither needed by nor related to that header. Remove the bogus
inclusion and instead include the header in those C files that actually
need it. Also fix unnecessary inclusions and bad inclusion order in
tsearch2 files.

scans, using in-memory tuple ID bitmaps as the intermediary. The planner
frontend (path creation and cost estimation) is not there yet, so none
of this code can be executed. I have tested it using some hacked planner
code that is far too ugly to see the light of day, however. Committing
now so that the bulk of the infrastructure changes go in before the tree
drifts under me.
