The GIN code has absolutely no business exporting GIN-specific functions
with names as generic as compareItemPointers() or newScanKey(); that's
just trouble waiting to happen. I got annoyed about this again just now
and decided to fix it. This commit ensures that all global symbols
defined in access/gin/ have names including "gin" or "Gin". There were a
couple of cases, like names involving "PostingItem", where arguably the
names were already sufficiently nongeneric; but I figured as long as I was
risking creating merge problems for unapplied GIN patches I might as well
impose a uniform policy.
I didn't touch any static symbol names. There might be some places
where it'd be appropriate to rename some static functions to match
siblings that are exported, but I'll leave that for another time.
The better estimate requires more statistics than we previously stored:
in particular, counts of "entry" versus "data" pages within the index,
as well as knowledge of the number of distinct key values. We collect
this information during initial index build and update it during VACUUM,
storing the info in new fields on the index metapage. No initdb is
required because these fields will read as zeroes in a pre-existing
index, and the new gincostestimate code is coded to behave (reasonably)
sanely if they are zeroes.

struct representing a tree entry, rather than being a separately allocated
piece of storage. This API is at least as clean as the old one (if not
more so --- there were some bizarre choices in there) and it permits a
very substantial memory savings, on the order of 2X in ginbulk.c's usage.
Also, fix minor memory leaks in code called by ginEntryInsert, in
particular in ginInsertValue and entryFillRoot, as well as ginEntryInsert
itself. These leaks resulted in the GIN index build context continuing
to bloat even after we'd filled it to maintenance_work_mem and started
to dump data out to the index.
In combination these fixes restore the GIN index build code to honoring
the maintenance_work_mem limit about as well as it did in 8.4. Speed
seems on par with 8.4 too, maybe even a bit faster, for a non-pathological
case in which HEAD was formerly slower.
Back-patch to 9.0 so we don't have a performance regression from 8.4.
tuple size limit. Improve the error message for index-tuple-too-large
so that it includes the actual size, the limit, and the index name.
Sync with the btree occurrences of the same error.
Back-patch to 8.4 because it appears that the out-of-sync problem
is occurring in the field.
Teodor and Tom
is supposed to remove duplicate heap TIDs, we have to be sure to reduce the
tuple size and posting-item count accordingly in addItemPointersToTuple().
Failing to do so resulted in the effective injection of garbage TIDs into the
index contents, ie, whatever happened to be in the memory palloc'd for the
new tuple. I'm not sure that this fully explains the index corruption
reported by Tatsuo Ishii, but the test case I'm using no longer fails.
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.
more logical that way, and also it reduces the amount of unnecessary includes
in bufpage.h, which is widely used.

My previous patch to bufpage.h should also have credited him as author, but I
forgot (sorry about that).
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.
- Fix possible deadlock between UPDATE and VACUUM queries. Bug never was
observed in 8.2, but it still exist there. HEAD is more sensitive to
bug after recent "ring" of buffer improvements.
- Fix WAL creation: if parent page is stored as is after split then
incomplete split isn't removed during replay. This happens rather rare, only
on large tables with a lot of updates/inserts.
- Fix WAL replay: there was wrong test of XLR_BKP_BLOCK_* for left
page after deletion of page. That causes wrong rightlink field: it pointed
to deleted page.
- add checking of match of clearing incomplete split
- cleanup incomplete split list after proceeding
All of this chages doesn't change on-disk storage, so backpatch...
But second point may be an issue for replaying logs from previous version.
