Peter Eisentraut	8a27d418f8	Mark function arguments of type "Datum " as "const Datum " where possible Several functions in the codebase accept "Datum " parameters but do not modify the pointed-to data. These have been updated to take "const Datum " instead, improving type safety and making the interfaces clearer about their intent. This change helps the compiler catch accidental modifications and better documents immutability of arguments. Most of "Datum " parameters have a pairing "bool isnull" parameter, they are constified as well. No functional behavior is changed by this patch.

David Rowley	5983a4cffc	Introduce CompactAttribute array in TupleDesc, take 2 The new compact_attrs array stores a few select fields from FormData_pg_attribute in a more compact way, using only 16 bytes per column instead of the 104 bytes that FormData_pg_attribute uses. Using CompactAttribute allows performance-critical operations such as tuple deformation to be performed without looking at the FormData_pg_attribute element in TupleDesc which means fewer cacheline accesses. For some workloads, tuple deformation can be the most CPU intensive part of processing the query. Some testing with 16 columns on a table where the first column is variable length showed around a 10% increase in transactions per second for an OLAP type query performing aggregation on the 16th column. However, in certain cases, the increases were much higher, up to ~25% on one AMD Zen4 machine. This also makes pg_attribute.attcacheoff redundant. A follow-on commit will remove it, thus shrinking the FormData_pg_attribute struct by 4 bytes.

Heikki Linnakangas	4d8275046c	Remove remants of "snapshot too old" Remove the 'whenTaken' and 'lsn' fields from SnapshotData. After the removal of the "snapshot too old" feature, they were never set to a non-zero value. This largely reverts commit `3e2f3c2e42`, which added the OldestActiveSnapshot tracking, and the init_toast_snapshot() function. That was only required for setting the 'whenTaken' and 'lsn' fields. SnapshotToast is now a constant again, like SnapshotSelf and SnapshotAny. I kept a thin get_toast_snapshot() wrapper around SnapshotToast though, to check that you have a registered or active snapshot. That's still a useful sanity check.

Alexander Korotkov	bc1e2092eb	Revert: Custom reloptions for table AM This commit reverts `9bd99f4c26` and `422041542f` per review by Andres Freund. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/20240410165236.rwyrny7ihi4ddxw4%40awork3.anarazel.de	2 years ago
Alexander Korotkov	9bd99f4c26	Custom reloptions for table AM Let table AM define custom reloptions for its tables. This allows specifying AM-specific parameters by the WITH clause when creating a table. The reloptions, which could be used outside of table AM, are now extracted into the CommonRdOptions data structure. These options could be by decision of table AM directly specified by a user or calculated in some way. The new test module test_tam_options evaluates the ability to set up custom reloptions and calculate fields of CommonRdOptions on their base. The code may use some parts from prior work by Hao Wu.

Tom Lane	3ed2005ff5	Introduce macros for typalign and typstorage constants. Our usual practice for "poor man's enum" catalog columns is to define macros for the possible values and use those, not literal constants, in C code. But for some reason lost in the mists of time, this was never done for typalign/attalign or typstorage/attstorage. It's never too late to make it better though, so let's do that. The reason I got interested in this right now is the need to duplicate some uses of the TYPSTORAGE constants in an upcoming ALTER TYPE patch. But in general, this sort of change aids greppability and readability, so it's a good idea even without any specific motivation. I may have missed a few places that could be converted, and it's even more likely that pending patches will re-introduce some hard-coded references. But that's not fatal --- there's no expectation that we'd actually change any of these values. We can clean up stragglers over time.

Robert Haas	ce242ae154	tableam: New callback relation_fetch_toast_slice. Instead of always calling heap_fetch_toast_slice during detoasting, invoke a table AM callback which, when the toast table is a heap table, will be heap_fetch_toast_slice. This makes it possible for a table AM other than heap to be used as a TOAST table. It also completes the series of commits intended to improve the interaction of tableam with TOAST that began with commit 8b94dab06617ef80a0901ab103ebd8754427ef5a; detoast.c is now, hopefully, fully AM-independent.

Robert Haas	2e8b6bfa90	Rename some toasting functions based on whether they are heap-specific. The old names for the attribute-detoasting functions names included the word "heap," which seems outdated now that the heap is only one of potentially many table access methods. On the other hand, toast_insert_or_update and toast_delete are heap-specific, so rename them by adding "heap_" as a prefix. Not all of the work of making the TOAST system fully accessible to AMs other than the heap is done yet, but there seems to be little harm in getting this renaming out of the way now. Commit `8b94dab066` already divided up the functions among various files partially according to whether it was intended that they should be heap-specific or AM-agnostic, so this is just clarifying the division contemplated by that commit.

Robert Haas	bd124996ef	Create an API for inserting and deleting rows in TOAST tables. This moves much of the non-heap-specific logic from toast_delete and toast_insert_or_update into a helper functions accessible via a new header, toast_helper.h. Using the functions in this module, a table AM can implement creation and deletion of TOAST table rows with much less code duplication than was possible heretofore. Some table AMs won't want to use the TOAST logic at all, but for those that do this will make that easier.

Robert Haas	8b94dab066	Split tuptoaster.c into three separate files. detoast.c/h contain functions required to detoast a datum, partially or completely, plus a few other utility functions for examining the size of toasted datums. toast_internals.c/h contain functions that are used internally to the TOAST subsystem but which (mostly) do not need to be accessed from outside. heaptoast.c/h contains code that is intrinsically specific to the heap AM, either because it operates on HeapTuples or is based on the layout of a heap page. detoast.c and toast_internals.c are placed in src/backend/access/common rather than src/backend/access/heap. At present, both files still have dependencies on the heap, but that will be improved in a future commit.
