(overlaying low byte of page size) and add HEAP_HASOID bit to t_infomask,
per earlier discussion. Simplify scheme for overlaying fields in tuple
header (no need for cmax to live in more than one place). Don't try to
clear infomask status bits in tqual.c --- not safe to do it there. Don't
try to force output table of a SELECT INTO to have OIDs, either. Get rid
of unnecessarily complex three-state scheme for TupleDesc.tdhasoids, which
has already caused one recent failure. Improve documentation.
tuple header. The fix is based on the thought that HEAP_MOVED_IN is
not needed any more as soon as HEAP_XMIN_COMMITTED has been set. So
in tqual.c and vacuum.c the HEAP_MOVED bits are cleared when
HEAP_XMIN_COMMITTED is set.
Vacuum robustness is enhanced by rearranging ifs, so that we have a
chance to elog(ERROR, ...) before an assertion fails.
A new regression test is included.

HeapTupleHeaderData in setter and getter macros called
HeapTupleHeaderGetXmin, HeapTupleHeaderSetXmin etc.
It also introduces a "virtual" field xvac by defining
HeapTupleHeaderGetXvac and HeapTupleHeaderSetXvac. Xvac is used by
VACUUM, in fact it is stored in t_cmin.

transaction, so as to avoid returning them out of the index AM. Saves
repeated heap_fetch operations on frequently-updated rows. Also detect
queries on unique keys (equality to all columns of a unique index), and
don't bother continuing scan once we have found first match.
Killing is implemented in the btree and hash AMs, but not yet in rtree
or gist, because there isn't an equally convenient place to do it in
those AMs (the outer amgetnext routine can't do it without re-pinning
the index page).
Did some small cleanup on APIs of HeapTupleSatisfies, heap_fetch, and
index_insert to make this a little easier.
in snapshots, per my proposal of a few days ago. Also, tweak heapam.c
routines (heap_insert, heap_update, heap_delete, heap_mark4update) to
be passed the command ID to use, instead of doing GetCurrentCommandID.
For catalog updates they'll still get passed current command ID, but
for updates generated from the main executor they'll get passed the
command ID saved in the snapshot the query is using. This should fix
some corner cases associated with functions and triggers that advance
current command ID while an outer query is still in progress.
mess up after an aborted VACUUM FULL, per today's pghackers discussion.
Add a suitable HeapTupleSatisfiesToast routine. Remove useless special-
case test in HeapTupleSatisfiesVisibility macro for xmax =
BootstrapTransactionId; perhaps that was needed at one time, but it's
a waste of cycles now, not to mention actively wrong for SnapshotAny.
Along the way, add some much-needed comments to tqual.c, and simplify
toast_fetch_datum, which no longer needs to assume it may see chunks
out-of-order.
as either HEAP_XMAX_COMMITTED or HEAP_XMAX_INVALID once the updating
transaction is gone. Otherwise some other transaction may come along
and try to test the commit status of t_xmax later --- which could be
after VACUUM has recycled the CLOG status for that xact. Bug introduced
in post-beta4 bug fix.
buffer manager with 'pg_clog', a specialized access method modeled
on pg_xlog. This simplifies startup (don't need to play games to
open pg_log; among other things, OverrideTransactionSystem goes away),
should improve performance a little, and opens the door to recycling
commit log space by removing no-longer-needed segments of the commit
log. Actual recycling is not there yet, but I felt I should commit
this part separately since it'd still be useful if we chose not to
do transaction ID wraparound.

HeapTupleSatisfiesVacuum --- this wasn't important for old VACUUM with
exclusive lock on its table, but it sure is important now. All per
pghackers discussion 7/11/01 and 7/12/01.
validity checking rules for VACUUM. Make some other rearrangements of the
VACUUM code to allow more code to be shared between full and lazy VACUUM.
Minor code cleanups and added comments for TransactionId manipulations.
2. Much faster btree tuples deletion in the case when first on page
index tuple is deleted (no movement to the left page(s)).
3. Remember blkno of new root page in BTPageOpaque of
left/right siblings when root page is splitted.
