the relation but it finds a pre-existing valid buffer. The buffer does not
correspond to any page known to the kernel, so we *must* do smgrextend to
ensure that the space becomes allocated. The 7.x branches all do this
correctly, but the corner case got lost somewhere during 8.0 bufmgr rewrites.
(My fault no doubt :-( ... I think I assumed that such a buffer must be
not-BM_VALID, which is not so.)

an LWLock instead of a spinlock. This hardly matters on Unix machines
but should improve startup performance on Windows (or any port using
EXEC_BACKEND). Per previous discussion.
from Andrus Moor. The former state-machine-style coding wasn't actually
doing much except obscuring the control flow, and it didn't extend
readily to fix this case, so I just took it out. Also, add a
YY_FLUSH_BUFFER call to ensure the lexer is reset correctly if the
previous scan failed partway through the file.
a little bit, and set the minimum buffers-per-connection ratio to 10 not
5. I folded the two test routines into one to counteract the illusion
that the tests can be twiddled independently, and added some documentation
pointing out the necessary connection between the sets of values tested.
Fixes strange choices of parameters that I noticed CVS tip making on
Darwin with Apple's undersized default SHMMAX.
selection of a field from the result of a function returning RECORD.
I believe this case is new in 8.1; it's due to the addition of OUT parameters.
Per example from Michael Fuhr.
in favor of having just one set of macros that don't do HOLD/RESUME_INTERRUPTS
(hence, these correspond to the old SpinLockAcquire_NoHoldoff case).
Given our coding rules for spinlock use, there is no reason to allow
CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS to be done while holding a spinlock, and also there
is no situation where ImmediateInterruptOK will be true while holding a
spinlock. Therefore doing HOLD/RESUME_INTERRUPTS while taking/releasing a
spinlock is just a waste of cycles. Qingqing Zhou and Tom Lane.
