failed (due to lock conflicts or out-of-space).  We might have already
extended the index's filesystem EOF before failing, causing the EOF to be
beyond what the metapage says is the last used page.  Hence the invariant
maintained by the code needs to be "EOF is at or beyond last used page",
not "EOF is exactly the last used page".  Problem was created by my patch
of 2006-11-19 that attempted to repair bug #2737.  Since that was
back-patched to 7.4, this needs to be as well.  Per report and test case
from Vlastimil Krejcir.

pass-by-reference data type and the RETURN statement is within an EXCEPTION
block.  Bug introduced by my fix of 2007-01-28 to use per-subtransaction
ExprContexts/EStates; since that wasn't back-patched into older branches,
only 8.2 and HEAD are affected.  Per report from Gary Winslow.

doing so can result in crash if an sinval reset occurs meanwhile.
I believe this explains intermittent buildfarm failures in cluster test.

competing alternatives for indexes to use in a bitmap scan.  The former
coding took estimated selectivity as an overriding factor, causing it to
sometimes choose indexes that were much slower to scan than ones with a
slightly worse selectivity.  It was also too narrow-minded about which
combinations of indexes to consider ANDing.  The rewrite makes it pay more
attention to index scan cost than selectivity; this seems sane since it's
impossible to have very bad selectivity with low cost, whereas the reverse
isn't true.  Also, we now consider each index alone, as well as adding
each index to an AND-group led by each prior index, for a total of about
O(N^2) rather than O(N) combinations considered.  This makes the results
much less dependent on the exact order in which the indexes are
considered.  It's still a lot cheaper than an O(2^N) exhaustive search.
A prefilter step eliminates all but the cheapest of those indexes using
the same set of WHERE conditions, to keep the effective value of N down in
scenarios where the DBA has created lots of partially-redundant indexes.

processes to be running simultaneously.  Also, now autovacuum processes do not
count towards the max_connections limit; they are counted separately from
regular processes, and are limited by the new GUC variable
autovacuum_max_workers.

The launcher now has intelligence to launch workers on each database every
autovacuum_naptime seconds, limited only on the max amount of worker slots
available.

Also, the global worker I/O utilization is limited by the vacuum cost-based
delay feature.  Workers are "balanced" so that the total I/O consumption does
not exceed the established limit.  This part of the patch was contributed by
ITAGAKI Takahiro.

SPI facilities create a path whereby queries planned with non-default
options can get into the cache, so it is necessary.

FETCH/MOVE routines that allow access to the full power of those commands.
Small refactoring of planner(), pg_plan_query(), and pg_plan_queries()

This is the core-code portion of Pavel Stehule's patch for scrollable

separately.

this case and it saves a useful fraction of the planning time for simple
queries.
