Given these routines are heap specific, and that there will be more
generic visibility support in via table AM, it makes sense to move the
prototypes to heapam.h (routines like HeapTupleSatisfiesVacuum will
not be exposed in a generic fashion, because they are too storage
specific).
Similarly, the code in tqual.c is specific to heap, so moving it into
access/heap/ makes sense.

heapam.h previously was included in a number of widely used
headers (e.g. execnodes.h, indirectly in executor.h, ...). That's
problematic on its own, as heapam.h contains a lot of low-level
details that don't need to be exposed that widely, but becomes more
problematic with the upcoming introduction of pluggable table storage
- it seems inappropriate for heapam.h to be included that widely
afterwards.
heapam.h was largely only included in other headers to get the
HeapScanDesc typedef (which was defined in heapam.h, even though
HeapScanDescData is defined in relscan.h). The better solution here
seems to be to just use the underlying struct (forward declared where
necessary). Similar for BulkInsertState.
Another problem was that LockTupleMode was used in executor.h - parts
of the file tried to cope without heapam.h, but due to the fact that
it indirectly included it, several subsequent violations of that goal
were not not noticed. We could just reuse the approach of declaring
parameters as int, but it seems nicer to move LockTupleMode to
lockoptions.h - that's not a perfect location, but also doesn't seem
bad.
As a number of files relied on implicitly included heapam.h, a
significant number of files grew an explicit include. It's quite
probably that a few external projects will need to do the same.

Fix the warnings created by the compiler warning options
-Wformat-overflow=2 -Wformat-truncation=2, supported since GCC 7. This
is a more aggressive variant of the fixes in
6275f5d28a, which GCC 7 warned about by
default.
The issues are all harmless, but some dubious coding patterns are
cleaned up.
One issue that is of external interest is that BGW_MAXLEN is increased
from 64 to 96. Apparently, the old value would cause the bgw_name of
logical replication workers to be truncated in some circumstances.
But this doesn't actually add those warning options. It appears that
the warnings depend a bit on compilation and optimization options, so it
would be annoying to have to keep up with that. This is more of a
once-in-a-while cleanup.

The new indent version includes numerous fixes thanks to Piotr Stefaniak.
The main changes visible in this commit are:
* Nicer formatting of function-pointer declarations.
* No longer unexpectedly removes spaces in expressions using casts,
sizeof, or offsetof.
* No longer wants to add a space in "struct structname *varname", as
well as some similar cases for const- or volatile-qualified pointers.
* Declarations using PG_USED_FOR_ASSERTS_ONLY are formatted more nicely.
* Fixes bug where comments following declarations were sometimes placed
with no space separating them from the code.
* Fixes some odd decisions for comments following case labels.
* Fixes some cases where comments following code were indented to less
than the expected column 33.
On the less good side, it now tends to put more whitespace around typedef
names that are not listed in typedefs.list. This might encourage us to
put more effort into typedef name collection; it's not really a bug in
indent itself.
There are more changes coming after this round, having to do with comment
indentation and alignment of lines appearing within parentheses. I wanted
to limit the size of the diffs to something that could be reviewed without
one's eyes completely glazing over, so it seemed better to split up the
changes as much as practical.

Standardize on testing a hash index page's type by doing
(opaque->hasho_flag & LH_PAGE_TYPE) == LH_xxx_PAGE
Various places were taking shortcuts like
opaque->hasho_flag & LH_BUCKET_PAGE
which while not actually wrong, is still bad practice because
it encourages use of
opaque->hasho_flag & LH_UNUSED_PAGE
which *is* wrong (LH_UNUSED_PAGE == 0, so the above is constant false).
hash_xlog.c's hash_mask() contained such an incorrect test.
This also ensures that we mask out the additional flag bits that
hasho_flag has accreted since 9.6. pgstattuple's pgstat_hash_page(),
for one, was failing to do that and was thus actively broken.
Also fix assorted comments that hadn't been updated to reflect the
extended usage of hasho_flag, and fix some macros that were testing
just "(hasho_flag & bit)" to use the less dangerous, project-approved
form "((hasho_flag & bit) != 0)".
Coverity found the bug in hash_mask(); I noted the one in
pgstat_hash_page() through code reading.
There are no functional changes here; this simply encapsulates knowledge
of the ItemPointerData struct so that a future patch can change things
without more breakage.
All direct users of ip_blkid and ip_posid are changed to use existing

This makes almost all core code follow the policy introduced in the
previous commit. Specific decisions:
- Text search support functions with char* and length arguments, such as
prsstart and lexize, may receive unaligned strings. I doubt
maintainers of non-core text search code will notice.
- Use plain VARDATA() on values detoasted or synthesized earlier in the
same function. Use VARDATA_ANY() on varlenas sourced outside the
function, even if they happen to always have four-byte headers. As an
exception, retain the universal practice of using VARDATA() on return
values of SendFunctionCall().
- Retain PG_GETARG_BYTEA_P() in pageinspect. (Page images are too large
for a one-byte header, so this misses no optimization.) Sites that do
not call get_page_from_raw() typically need the four-byte alignment.
- For now, do not change btree_gist. Its use of four-byte headers in
memory is partly entangled with storage of 4-byte headers inside
GBT_VARKEY, on disk.
- For now, do not change gtrgm_consistent() or gtrgm_distance(). They
incorporate the varlena header into a cache, and there are multiple
credible implementation strategies to consider.
The contrib extensions pageinspect, pg_visibility and pgstattuple only
work against regular relations which have storage. They don't work
against foreign tables, partitioned (parent) tables, views, et al.
Add checks to the user-callable functions to return a useful error
message to the user if they mistakenly pass an invalid relation to a
function which doesn't accept that kind of relation.
In passing, improve some of the existing checks to use ereport() instead
of elog(), add a function to consolidate common checks where
appropriate, and add some regression tests.

It's currently necessary to take a heavyweight lock when scanning a
hash bucket, but pgstattuple only examines individual pages, so it
doesn't need to do this. If, for some hypothetical reason, it did
need to do any heavyweight locking here, this logic would probably
still be incorrect, because most of the locks that it is taking are
meaningless. Only a heavyweight lock on a primary bucket page has any
meaning, but this takes heavyweight locks on all pages regardless of
function - and in particular overflow pages, where you might imagine
that we'd want to lock the primary bucket page if we needed to lock
anything at all.
This is arguably a bug that has existed since this code was added in
commit dab42382f4, but I'm not going to
bother back-patching it because in most cases the only consequence is
that running pgstattuple() on a hash index is a little slower than it
otherwise might be, which is no big deal.
Extracted from a vastly larger patch by Amit Kapila which heavyweight
locking for hash indexes entirely; analysis of why this can be done
independently of the rest by me.
Now that we track initial privileges on extension objects and changes to
those permissions, we can drop the superuser() checks from the various
functions which are part of the pgstattuple extension and rely on the
GRANT system to control access to those functions.
Since a pg_upgrade will preserve the version of the extension which
existed prior to the upgrade, we can't simply modify the existing
functions but instead need to create new functions which remove the
checks and update the SQL-level functions to use the new functions
(and to REVOKE EXECUTE rights on those functions from PUBLIC).
Thanks to Tom and Andres for adding support for extensions to follow
update paths (see: 40b449a), allowing this patch to be much smaller
since no new base version script needed to be included.

The reverted changes were intended to force a choice of whether any
newly-added BufferGetPage() calls needed to be accompanied by a
test of the snapshot age, to support the "snapshot too old"
feature. Such an accompanying test is needed in about 7% of the
cases, where the page is being used as part of a scan rather than
positioning for other purposes (such as DML or vacuuming). The
additional effort required for back-patching, and the doubt whether
the intended benefit would really be there, have indicated it is
best just to rely on developers to do the right thing based on
comments and existing usage, as we do with many other conventions.
This change should have little or no effect on generated executable
code.
Motivated by the back-patching pain of Tom Lane and Robert Haas
This patch is a no-op patch which is intended to reduce the chances
of failures of omission once the functional part of the "snapshot
too old" patch goes in. It adds parameters for snapshot, relation,
and an enum to specify whether the snapshot age check needs to be
done for the page at this point. This initial patch passes NULL
for the first two new parameters and BGP_NO_SNAPSHOT_TEST for the
third. The follow-on patch will change the places where the test
needs to be made.
This patch reduces pg_am to just two columns, a name and a handler
function. All the data formerly obtained from pg_am is now provided
in a C struct returned by the handler function. This is similar to
the designs we've adopted for FDWs and tablesample methods. There
are multiple advantages. For one, the index AM's support functions
are now simple C functions, making them faster to call and much less
error-prone, since the C compiler can now check function signatures.
For another, this will make it far more practical to define index access
methods in installable extensions.
A disadvantage is that SQL-level code can no longer see attributes
of index AMs; in particular, some of the crosschecks in the opr_sanity
regression test are no longer possible from SQL. We've addressed that
by adding a facility for the index AM to perform such checks instead.
(Much more could be done in that line, but for now we're content if the
amvalidate functions more or less replace what opr_sanity used to do.)
We might also want to expose some sort of reporting functionality, but
this patch doesn't do that.

This function continued to use it after heap_endscan() freed it. In

Because of gcc -Wmissing-prototypes, all functions in dynamically
loadable modules must have a separate prototype declaration. This is
meant to detect global functions that are not declared in header files,
but in cases where the function is called via dfmgr, this is redundant.
Besides filling up space with boilerplate, this is a frequent source of
compiler warnings in extension modules.
We can fix that by creating the function prototype as part of the
PG_FUNCTION_INFO_V1 macro, which such modules have to use anyway. That
makes the code of modules cleaner, because there is one less place where
the entry points have to be listed, and creates an additional check that
functions have the right prototype.
Remove now redundant prototypes from contrib and other modules.
Tuples belonging to uncommitted transactions should not be

This is arguably a bug fix that should be back-patched, but

A materialized view has a rule just like a view and a heap and
other physical properties like a table. The rule is only used to
populate the table, references in queries refer to the
materialized data.
This is a minimal implementation, but should still be useful in
many cases. Currently data is only populated "on demand" by the
CREATE MATERIALIZED VIEW and REFRESH MATERIALIZED VIEW statements.
It is expected that future releases will add incremental updates
with various timings, and that a more refined concept of defining
what is "fresh" data will be developed. At some point it may even
be possible to have queries use a materialized in place of
references to underlying tables, but that requires the other
above-mentioned features to be working first.

This is an extension of pgstattuple to query information from indexes.
It supports btree, hash and gist. Gin is not supported. It scans only

Also, I added an experimental feature for btree indexes. It checks
fragmentation factor of indexes. If an leaf has the right link on the
next adjacent page in the file, it is assumed to be continuous (not
fragmented). It will help us to decide when to REINDEX.
