Tom Lane 8f348112f3 Insert CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS() calls into btree and hash index scans at the 
points where we step right or left to the next page.  This should ensure
reasonable response time to a query cancel request during an unsuccessful
index scan, as seen in recent gripe from Marc Cousin.  It's a bit trickier
than it might seem at first glance, because CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS() is a no-op
if executed while holding a buffer lock.  So we have to do it just at the
point where we've dropped one page lock and not yet acquired the next.

Remove CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS calls at the top level of btgetbitmap and
hashgetbitmap, since they're pointless given the added checks.

I think that GIST is okay already --- at least, there's a CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS
at a plausible-looking place in gistnext().  I don't claim to know GIN well
enough to try to poke it for this, if indeed it has a problem at all.

This is a pre-existing issue, but in view of the lack of prior complaints
I'm not going to risk back-patching.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================
  
This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

	http://www.postgresql.org/download

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Changes between all PostgreSQL releases are recorded in the
file HISTORY.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
http://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
