 * INTERFACE ROUTINES
 *		ExecMergeJoin			mergejoin outer and inner relations.
 *		ExecInitMergeJoin		creates and initializes run time states
 *		ExecEndMergeJoin		cleans up the node.
 *
 * NOTES
 *		Essential operation of the merge join algorithm is as follows:
 *
 *		Join {												   -
 *			get initial outer and inner tuples				INITIALIZE
 *			Skip Inner										SKIPINNER
 *			mark inner position								JOINMARK
 *			do forever {									   -
 *				while (outer == inner) {					JOINTEST
 *					join tuples								JOINTUPLES
 *					advance inner position					NEXTINNER
 *				}											   -
 *				advance outer position						NEXTOUTER
 *				if (outer == mark) {						TESTOUTER
 *					restore inner position to mark			TESTOUTER
 *					continue								   -
 *				} else {									   -
 *					Skip Outer								SKIPOUTER
 *					mark inner position						JOINMARK
 *				}											   -
 *			}												   -
 *		}													   -
 *
 *		Skip Outer {										SKIPOUTER_BEGIN
 *			if (inner == outer) Join Tuples					JOINTUPLES
 *			while (outer < inner)							SKIPOUTER_TEST
 *				advance outer								SKIPOUTER_ADVANCE
 *			if (outer > inner)								SKIPOUTER_TEST
 *				Skip Inner									SKIPINNER
 *		}													   -
 *
 *		Skip Inner {										SKIPINNER_BEGIN
 *			if (inner == outer) Join Tuples					JOINTUPLES
 *			while (outer > inner)							SKIPINNER_TEST
 *				advance inner								SKIPINNER_ADVANCE
 *			if (outer < inner)								SKIPINNER_TEST
 *				Skip Outer									SKIPOUTER
 *		}													   -
 *
 *		The merge join operation is coded in the fashion
 *		of a state machine.  At each state, we do something and then
 *		proceed to another state.  This state is stored in the node's
 *		execution state information and is preserved across calls to
 *		ExecMergeJoin. -cim 10/31/89

/* ----------------------------------------------------------------
 *		ExecMergeJoin
 *
 * old comments
 *		Details of the merge-join routines:
 *
 *		(1) ">" and "<" operators
 *
 *		Merge-join is done by joining the inner and outer tuples satisfying
 *		the join clauses of the form ((= outerKey innerKey) ...).
 *		The join clauses is provided by the query planner and may contain
 *		more than one (= outerKey innerKey) clauses (for composite key).
 *
 *		However, the query executor needs to know whether an outer
 *		tuple is "greater/smaller" than an inner tuple so that it can
 *		"synchronize" the two relations. For e.g., consider the following
 *		relations:
 *
 *				outer: (0 ^1 1 2 5 5 5 6 6 7)	current tuple: 1
 *				inner: (1 ^3 5 5 5 5 6)			current tuple: 3
 *
 *		To continue the merge-join, the executor needs to scan both inner
 *		and outer relations till the matching tuples 5. It needs to know
 *		that currently inner tuple 3 is "greater" than outer tuple 1 and
 *		therefore it should scan the outer relation first to find a
 *		matching tuple and so on.
 *
 *		Therefore, when initializing the merge-join node, the executor
 *		creates the "greater/smaller" clause by substituting the "="
 *		operator in the join clauses with the corresponding ">" operator.
 *		The opposite "smaller/greater" clause is formed by substituting "<".
 *
 *		Note: prior to v6.5, the relational clauses were formed using the
 *		sort op used to sort the inner relation, which of course would fail
 *		if the outer and inner keys were of different data types.
 *		In the current code, we instead assume that operators named "<" and ">"
 *		will do the right thing.  This should be true since the mergejoin "="
 *		operator's pg_operator entry will have told the planner to sort by
 *		"<" for each of the left and right sides.
 *
 *		(2) repositioning inner "cursor"
 *
 *		Consider the above relations and suppose that the executor has
 *		just joined the first outer "5" with the last inner "5". The
 *		next step is of course to join the second outer "5" with all
 *		the inner "5's". This requires repositioning the inner "cursor"
 *		to point at the first inner "5". This is done by "marking" the
 *		first inner 5 and restore the "cursor" to it before joining
 *		with the second outer 5. The access method interface provides
 *		routines to mark and restore to a tuple.
