Thomas Munro 15c9ac3629 Optimize pg_readv/pg_pwritev single vector case.
For the trivial case of iovcnt == 1, kernels are measurably slower at
dealing with the more complex arguments of preadv/pwritev than the
equivalent plain old pread/pwrite.  The overheads are worth it for
iovcnt > 1, but for 1 let's just redirect to the cheaper calls.  While
we could leave it to callers to worry about that, we already have to
have our own pg_ wrappers for portability reasons so it seems
reasonable to centralize this knowledge there (thanks to Heikki for this
suggestion).  Try to avoid function call overheads by making them
inlinable, which might also allow the compiler to avoid the branch in
some cases.  For systems that don't have preadv and pwritev (currently:
Windows and [closed] Solaris), we might as well pull the replacement
functions up into the static inline functions too.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================

This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software, and related software, may be
obtained at https://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information
