- * Each active hashjoin has a HashJoinTable control block, which is
- * palloc'd in the executor's per-query context.  All other storage needed
- * for the hashjoin is kept in private memory contexts, two for each hashjoin.
- * This makes it easy and fast to release the storage when we don't need it
- * anymore.  (Exception: data associated with the temp files lives in the
- * per-query context too, since we always call buffile.c in that context.)
+ * Each active hashjoin has a HashJoinTable structure, which is
+ * palloc'd in the executor's per-query context.  Other storages needed for
+ * each hashjoin is kept in child contexts, three for each hashjoin:
+ *   - HashTableContext (hashCxt): the parent hash table storage context
+ *     - HashSpillContext (spillCxt): storage for temp files buffers
+ *     - HashBatchContext (batchCxt): storage for a batch in serial hash join
  *
  * The hashtable contexts are made children of the per-query context, ensuring
  * that they will be discarded at end of statement even if the join is
  * aborted early by an error.  (Likewise, any temporary files we make will
  * be cleaned up by the virtual file manager in event of an error.)
  *
- * Storage that should live through the entire join is allocated from the
- * "hashCxt", while storage that is only wanted for the current batch is
- * allocated in the "batchCxt".  By resetting the batchCxt at the end of
- * each batch, we free all the per-batch storage reliably and without tedium.
+ * The "hashCxt" context makes it easy and fast to release the storage when we
+ * don't need it anymore. Storage that should live through the entire join is
+ * allocated from the "hashCxt" (mainly hash's meta datas).
+ *
+ * Data associated with temp files lives in the "spillCxt" context which lives
+ * during the entire join as temp files might need to survives batches. These
+ * files are explicitly destroyed by calling BufFileClose() when the code is
+ * done with them. The aim of this context is to help accounting the memory
+ * allocations dedicated to temp files and their buffers.
+ *
+ * Finaly, storage that is only wanted for the current batch is allocated in
+ * the "batchCxt".  By resetting the batchCxt at the end of each batch, we free
+ * all the per-batch storage reliably and without tedium.
  *
  * During first scan of inner relation, we get its tuples from executor.
  * If nbatch > 1 then tuples that don't belong in first batch get saved
