 *
 * heaptuple.c
 *	  This file contains heap tuple accessor and mutator routines, as well
 *	  as various tuple utilities.
 *
 * NOTE: there is massive duplication of code in this module to
 * support both the convention that a null is marked by a bool TRUE,
 * and the convention that a null is marked by a char 'n'.	The latter
 * convention is deprecated but it'll probably be a long time before
 * we can get rid of it entirely.
 *
 *
 * Some notes about varlenas and this code:
 *
 * Before Postgres 8.3 varlenas always had a 4-byte length header, and
 * therefore always needed 4-byte alignment (at least).  This wasted space
 * for short varlenas, for example CHAR(1) took 5 bytes and could need up to
 * 3 additional padding bytes for alignment.
 *
 * Now, a short varlena (up to 126 data bytes) is reduced to a 1-byte header
 * and we don't align it.  To hide this from datatype-specific functions that
 * don't want to deal with it, such a datum is considered "toasted" and will
 * be expanded back to the normal 4-byte-header format by pg_detoast_datum.
 * (In performance-critical code paths we can use pg_detoast_datum_packed
 * and the appropriate access macros to avoid that overhead.)  Note that this
 * conversion is performed directly in heap_form_tuple (or heap_formtuple),
 * without explicitly invoking the toaster.
 *
 * This change will break any code that assumes it needn't detoast values
 * that have been put into a tuple but never sent to disk.  Hopefully there
 * are few such places.
 *
 * Varlenas still have alignment 'i' (or 'd') in pg_type/pg_attribute, since
 * that's the normal requirement for the untoasted format.  But we ignore that
 * for the 1-byte-header format.  This means that the actual start position
 * of a varlena datum may vary depending on which format it has.  To determine
 * what is stored, we have to require that alignment padding bytes be zero.
 * (Postgres actually has always zeroed them, but now it's required!)  Since
 * the first byte of a 1-byte-header varlena can never be zero, we can examine
 * the first byte after the previous datum to tell if it's a pad byte or the
 * start of a 1-byte-header varlena.
 *
 * Note that while formerly we could rely on the first varlena column of a
 * system catalog to be at the offset suggested by the C struct for the
 * catalog, this is now risky: it's only safe if the preceding field is
 * word-aligned, so that there will never be any padding.
 *
 * We don't pack varlenas whose attstorage is 'p', since the data type
 * isn't expecting to have to detoast values.  This is used in particular
 * by oidvector and int2vector, which are used in the system catalogs
 * and we'd like to still refer to them via C struct offsets.
