Subject: Re: Indirect indexes
Date: Thu, 29 Dec 2016 04:28:07 -0300
Message-ID: <20161229072807.b2p4ld55xmgwshhj@alvherre.pgsql> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20161224023130.mis6hcow6d3xly4i@alvherre.pgsql>

Here's v3.  This one applies on top of the "interesting-attrs" patch I
sent a few hours ago:
https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/20161228232018.4hc66ndrzpz4g4wn@alvherre.pgsql
and contains a number of bugfixes that I discovered on my own (and which
therefore require no further explanation, since evidently no-one has
reviewed the patch yet).

One exception: in htup_details.h I changed the definition of
HeapTupleHeaderIsHeapOnly() so that it returns a true boolean rather
than a random bit in a wider integer.  Without this change, my compiler
complains when the result is passed as a bool argument into a function.
