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.

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 includes removing tabs after periods in C comments, which was
applied to back branches, so this change should not effect backpatching.

Since C99, it's been standard for printf and friends to accept a "z" size
modifier, meaning "whatever size size_t has". Up to now we've generally
dealt with printing size_t values by explicitly casting them to unsigned
long and using the "l" modifier; but this is really the wrong thing on
platforms where pointers are wider than longs (such as Win64). So let's
start using "z" instead. To ensure we can do that on all platforms, teach
src/port/snprintf.c to understand "z", and add a configure test to force
use of that implementation when the platform's version doesn't handle "z".
Having done that, modify a bunch of places that were using the
unsigned-long hack to use "z" instead. This patch doesn't pretend to have
gotten everyplace that could benefit, but it catches many of them. I made
an effort in particular to ensure that all uses of the same error message
text were updated together, so as not to increase the number of
translatable strings.
It's possible that this change will result in format-string warnings from
pre-C99 compilers. We might have to reconsider if there are any popular
compilers that will warn about this; but let's start by seeing what the
buildfarm thinks.

Avoid using LockPage(rel, 0, lockmode) to protect against changes to
the bucket mapping. Instead, an exclusive buffer content lock is now
viewed as sufficient permission to modify the metapage, and a shared
buffer content lock is used when such modifications need to be
prevented. This more relaxed locking regimen makes it possible that,
when we're busy getting a heavyweight bucket on the bucket we intend
to search or insert into, a bucket split might occur underneath us.
To compenate for that possibility, we use a loop-and-retry system:
release the metapage content lock, acquire the heavyweight lock on the
target bucket, and then reacquire the metapage content lock and check
that the bucket mapping has not changed. Normally it hasn't, and
we're done. But if by chance it has, we simply unlock the metapage,
release the heavyweight lock we acquired previously, lock the new
bucket, and loop around again. Even in the worst case we cannot loop
very many times here, since we don't split the same bucket again until
we've split all the other buckets, and 2^N gets big pretty fast.
This results in greatly improved concurrency, because we're
effectively replacing two lwlock acquire-and-release cycles in
exclusive mode (on one of the lock manager locks) with a single
acquire-and-release cycle in shared mode (on the metapage buffer
content lock). Testing shows that it's still not quite as good as
btree; for that, we'd probably have to find some way of getting rid
of the heavyweight bucket locks as well, which does not appear
straightforward.
Patch by me, review by Jeff Janes.

hash indexes keep entries sorted by hash value. First, the original plans for
concurrency assumed that insertions would happen only at the end of a page,
which is no longer true; this could cause scans to transiently fail to find
index entries in the presence of concurrent insertions. We can compensate
by teaching scans to re-find their position after re-acquiring read locks.
Second, neither the bucket split nor the bucket compaction logic had been
fixed to preserve hashvalue ordering, so application of either of those
processes could lead to permanent corruption of an index, in the sense
that searches might fail to find entries that are present.
This patch fixes the split and compaction logic to preserve hashvalue
ordering, but it cannot do anything about pre-existing corruption. We will
need to recommend reindexing all hash indexes in the 8.4.2 release notes.
To buy back the performance loss hereby induced in split and compaction,
fix them to use PageIndexMultiDelete instead of retail PageIndexDelete
operations. We might later want to do something with qsort'ing the
page contents rather than doing a binary search for each insertion,
but that seemed more invasive than I cared to risk in a back-patch.
Per bug #5157 from Jeff Janes and subsequent investigation.

value. This means that hash index lookups are always lossy and have to be
rechecked when the heap is visited; however, the gain in index compactness
outweighs this when the indexed values are wide. Also, we only need to
perform datatype comparisons when the hash codes match exactly, rather than
for every entry in the hash bucket; so it could also win for datatypes that
have expensive comparison functions. A small additional win is gained by
keeping hash index pages sorted by hash code and using binary search to reduce
the number of index tuples we have to look at.

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.

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.

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.

function besides WAL recovery :-).
Along the way, fold _hash_checkpage and _hash_pageinit calls into _hash_getbuf

on every index page they read; in particular to catch the case of an
all-zero page, which PageHeaderIsValid allows to pass. It turns out
hash already had this idea, but it was just Assert()ing things rather
than doing a straight error check, and the Asserts were partially
redundant with PageHeaderIsValid anyway. Per recent failure example
from Jim Nasby. (gist still needs the same treatment.)

convention for isnull flags. Also, remove the useless InsertIndexResult
return struct from index AM aminsert calls --- there is no reason for
the caller to know where in the index the tuple was inserted, and we
were wasting a palloc cycle per insert to deliver this uninteresting
value (plus nontrivial complexity in some AMs).
I forced initdb because of the change in the signature of the aminsert
routines, even though nothing really looks at those pg_proc entries...

pghackers. This fixes the problem recently reported by Markus KrÌutner
(hash bucket split corrupts the state of scans being done concurrently),
and I believe it also fixes all the known problems with deadlocks in
hash index operations. Hash indexes are still not really ready for prime
time (since they aren't WAL-logged), but this is a step forward.

not a full initdb). Widen hashm_ntuples to double so that hash space
management doesn't get confused by more than 4G entries; enlarge the
allowed number of free-space-bitmap pages; replace the useless bshift
field with a useful bmshift field; eliminate 4 bytes of wasted space
in the per-page special area.

are used, including a buffer reference leak and incorrect computation of bit
indexes. Get rid of 'overflow address' concept, which accomplished nothing
except obfuscating the code and creating a risk of failure due to limited
range of offset field. Rename some misleadingly-named fields and routines,
and improve documentation.

PostgreSQL. This hash function replaces the one used by hash indexes and
the catalog cache. Hash joins use a different, relatively poor-quality
hash function, but I'll fix that later.
As suggested by Tom Lane, this patch also changes the size of the fixed
hash table used by the catalog cache to be a power-of-2 (instead of a
prime: I chose 256 instead of 257). This allows the catcache to lookup
hash buckets using a simple bitmask. This should improve the performance
of the catalog cache slightly, since the previous method (modulo a
prime) was slow.
In my tests, this improves the performance of hash indexes by between 4%
and 8%; the performance when using btree indexes or seqscans is
basically unchanged.

succeeds or not. Revise rtree page split algorithm to take care about
making a feasible split --- ie, will the incoming tuple actually fit?
Failure to make a feasible split, combined with failure to notice the
failure, account for Jim Stone's recent bug report. I suspect that
hash and gist indices may have the same type of bug, but at least now
we'll get error messages rather than silent failures if so. Also clean
up rtree code to use Datum rather than char* where appropriate.
