We chose a specific wording of the not-implemented errors for
pseudotype I/O functions and other cases where there's little
value in implementing input and/or output. gtsvectorin never
got that memo though, nor did most of contrib. Make these all
fall in line, mostly because I'm a neatnik but also to remove
unnecessary translatable strings.
gbtreekey_in needs a bit of extra love since it supports
multiple SQL types. Sadly, gbtreekey_out doesn't have the
ability to do that, but I think it's unreachable anyway.
Noted while surveying datatype input functions to see what we
have left to fix.
MemSet() with a value other than 0 just falls back to memset(), so the
indirection is unnecessary if the value is constant and not 0. Since
there is some interest in getting rid of MemSet(), this gets some easy
cases out of the way. (There are a few MemSet() calls that I didn't
change to maintain the consistency with their surrounding code.)

Obviously, in order to equality operator be satisfiable, target string must
contain all the trigrams of the search string. On this base, we implement
equality operator in GiST/GIN indexes with recheck.

Whether from size overflow in gistSplit or from secondary splits,
picksplit is (rarely) called with exactly two items to split.
Formerly, due to special-case handling of the last item, this would
lead to access to an uninitialized cache entry; prior to PG 13 this
might have been harmless or at worst led to an incorrect union datum,
but in 13 onwards it can cause a backend crash from using an
uninitialized pointer.
Repair by removing the special case, which was deemed not to have been
appropriate anyway. Backpatch all the way, because this bug has
existed since pg_trgm was added.

911e702077 has introduced the opclass parameters including signature length
for a set of GiST opclasses. Due to copy-pasting, macro for getting the
signature length in trgm_gist.c was named LTREE_GET_ASIGLEN(). Fix that by
renaming this macro to just GET_SIGLEN().
Backpatch-through: 13
PostgreSQL provides set of template index access methods, where opclasses have
much freedom in the semantics of indexing. These index AMs are GiST, GIN,
SP-GiST and BRIN. There opclasses define representation of keys, operations on
them and supported search strategies. So, it's natural that opclasses may be
faced some tradeoffs, which require user-side decision. This commit implements
opclass parameters allowing users to set some values, which tell opclass how to
index the particular dataset.
This commit doesn't introduce new storage in system catalog. Instead it uses
pg_attribute.attoptions, which is used for table column storage options but
unused for index attributes.
In order to evade changing signature of each opclass support function, we
implement unified way to pass options to opclass support functions. Options
are set to fn_expr as the constant bytea expression. It's possible due to the
fact that opclass support functions are executed outside of expressions, so
fn_expr is unused for them.
This commit comes with some examples of opclass options usage. We parametrize
signature length in GiST. That applies to multiple opclasses: tsvector_ops,
gist__intbig_ops, gist_ltree_ops, gist__ltree_ops, gist_trgm_ops and
gist_hstore_ops. Also we parametrize maximum number of integer ranges for
gist__int_ops. However, the main future usage of this feature is expected
to be json, where users would be able to specify which way to index particular
json parts.
Catversion is bumped.

We used to strategically place newlines after some function call left
parentheses to make pgindent move the argument list a few chars to the
left, so that the whole line would fit under 80 chars. However,
pgindent no longer does that, so the newlines just made the code
vertically longer for no reason. Remove those newlines, and reflow some
of those lines for some extra naturality.

The basic rule we follow here is to always first include 'postgres.h' or
'postgres_fe.h' whichever is applicable, then system header includes and
then Postgres header includes. In this, we also follow that all the
Postgres header includes are in order based on their ASCII value. We
generally follow these rules, but the code has deviated in many places.
This commit makes it consistent just for contrib modules. The later
commits will enforce similar rules in other parts of code.

Test for the compiler builtins __builtin_clz, __builtin_ctz, and
__builtin_popcount, and make use of these in preference to
handwritten C code if they're available. Create src/port
infrastructure for "leftmost one", "rightmost one", and "popcount"
so as to centralize these decisions.
On x86_64, __builtin_popcount generally won't make use of the POPCNT
opcode because that's not universally supported yet. Provide code
that checks CPUID and then calls POPCNT via asm() if available.
This requires indirecting through a function pointer, which is
an annoying amount of overhead for a one-instruction operation,
but it's probably not worth working harder than this for our
current use-cases.
I'm not sure we've found all the existing places that could profit
from this new infrastructure; but we at least touched all the
ones that used copied-and-pasted versions of the bitmapset.c code,
and got rid of multiple copies of the associated constant arrays.
While at it, replace c-compiler.m4's one-per-builtin-function
macros with a single one that can handle all the cases we need
to worry about so far. Also, because I'm paranoid, make those
checks into AC_LINK checks rather than just AC_COMPILE; the
former coding failed to verify that libgcc has support for the
builtin, in cases where it's not inline code.

The lower case spellings are C and C++ standard and are used in most
parts of the PostgreSQL sources. The upper case spellings are only used
in some files/modules. So standardize on the standard spellings.
The APIs for ICU, Perl, and Windows define their own TRUE and FALSE, so
those are left as is when using those APIs.
In code comments, we use the lower-case spelling for the C concepts and
keep the upper-case spelling for the SQL concepts.

This makes almost all core code follow the policy introduced in the
previous commit. Specific decisions:
- Text search support functions with char* and length arguments, such as
prsstart and lexize, may receive unaligned strings. I doubt
maintainers of non-core text search code will notice.
- Use plain VARDATA() on values detoasted or synthesized earlier in the
same function. Use VARDATA_ANY() on varlenas sourced outside the
function, even if they happen to always have four-byte headers. As an
exception, retain the universal practice of using VARDATA() on return
values of SendFunctionCall().
- Retain PG_GETARG_BYTEA_P() in pageinspect. (Page images are too large
for a one-byte header, so this misses no optimization.) Sites that do
not call get_page_from_raw() typically need the four-byte alignment.
- For now, do not change btree_gist. Its use of four-byte headers in
memory is partly entangled with storage of 4-byte headers inside
GBT_VARKEY, on disk.
- For now, do not change gtrgm_consistent() or gtrgm_distance(). They
incorporate the varlena header into a cache, and there are multiple
credible implementation strategies to consider.
There was some very strange code here, dating to commit b525bf77, that
purported to work around an ancient gcc bug by forcing a float4 comparison
to be done as int instead. Commit 5871b8848 broke that when it changed
one side of the comparison to "double" but left the comparison code alone.
Commit f576b17cd doubled down on the weirdness by introducing a "volatile"
marker, which had nothing to do with the actual problem.
Guess that the gcc bug, even if it's still present in the wild, was
triggered by comparison of float4's and can be avoided if we store the
result of cnt_sml() into a double before comparing to the double "nlimit".
This will at least work correctly on non-broken compilers, and it's way
more readable.

For upcoming BRIN opclasses, it's convenient to have strategy numbers
defined in a single place. Since there's nothing appropriate, create
it. The StrategyNumber typedef now lives there, as well as existing
strategy numbers for B-trees (from skey.h) and R-tree-and-friends (from
gist.h). skey.h is forced to include stratnum.h because of the
StrategyNumber typedef, but gist.h is not; extensions that currently

A few .c files can stop including skey.h and/or gist.h, which is a nice

Because of gcc -Wmissing-prototypes, all functions in dynamically
loadable modules must have a separate prototype declaration. This is
meant to detect global functions that are not declared in header files,
but in cases where the function is called via dfmgr, this is redundant.
Besides filling up space with boilerplate, this is a frequent source of
compiler warnings in extension modules.
We can fix that by creating the function prototype as part of the
PG_FUNCTION_INFO_V1 macro, which such modules have to use anyway. That
makes the code of modules cleaner, because there is one less place where
the entry points have to be listed, and creates an additional check that
functions have the right prototype.
Remove now redundant prototypes from contrib and other modules.
The initial coding just descended the index if any of the target trigrams
were possibly present at the next level down. But actually we can apply
trigramsMatchGraph() so as to take advantage of AND requirements when there
are some. The input data might contain false positive matches, but that
can only result in a false positive result, not false negative, so it's
safe to do it this way.

This wasn't addressed in the original patch, but it doesn't take very
much additional code to cover the case, so let's get it done.
Since pg_trgm 1.1 hasn't been released yet, I just changed the definition
of what's in it, rather than inventing a 1.2.
The latter was already the dominant use, and it's preferable because
in C the convention is that intXX means XX bits. Therefore, allowing
mixed use of int2, int4, int8, int16, int32 is obviously confusing.
Remove the typedefs for int2 and int4 for now. They don't seem to be
widely used outside of the PostgreSQL source tree, and the few uses
can probably be cleaned up by the time this ships.
Since gtrgm_penalty() is usually called many times in a row with the same
"newval" (to determine which item on an index page newval fits into best),
the makesign() calculation is repetitious. It's expensive enough to make
it worth caching the result, so do so. On my machine this is good for
more than a 40% savings in the time needed to build a trigram index on
/usr/share/dict/words. This is all per a suggestion of Heikki's.
In passing, make some mostly-cosmetic improvements in the caching logic in
the other functions in this file that rely on caching info in fn_extra.
This addresses only those cases that are easy to fix by adding or
moving a const qualifier or removing an unnecessary cast. There are
many more complicated cases remaining.
Unlike Btree-based LIKE optimization, this works for non-left-anchored
search patterns. The effectiveness of the search depends on how many
trigrams can be extracted from the pattern. (The worst case, with no
trigrams, degrades to a full-table scan, so this isn't a panacea. But
it can be very useful.)

"consistent" functions, and remove pg_amop.opreqcheck, as per recent
discussion. The main immediate benefit of this is that we no longer need
8.3's ugly hack of requiring @@@ rather than @@ to test weight-using tsquery
searches on GIN indexes. In future it should be possible to optimize some
other queries better than is done now, by detecting at runtime whether the
index match is exact or not.
