Instead of changing the tuple xmin to FrozenTransactionId, the combination of HEAP_XMIN_COMMITTED and HEAP_XMIN_INVALID, which were previously never set together, is now defined as HEAP_XMIN_FROZEN. A variety of previous proposals to freeze tuples opportunistically before vacuum_freeze_min_age is reached have foundered on the objection that replacing xmin by FrozenTransactionId might hinder debugging efforts when things in this area go awry; this patch is intended to solve that problem by keeping the XID around (but largely ignoring the value to which it is set). Third-party code that checks for HEAP_XMIN_INVALID on tuples where HEAP_XMIN_COMMITTED might be set will be broken by this change. To fix, use the new accessor macros in htup_details.h rather than consulting the bits directly. HeapTupleHeaderGetXmin has been modified to return FrozenTransactionId when the infomask bits indicate that the tuple is frozen; use HeapTupleHeaderGetRawXmin when you already know that the tuple isn't marked commited or frozen, or want the raw value anyway. We currently do this in routines that display the xmin for user consumption, in tqual.c where it's known to be safe and important for the avoidance of extra cycles, and in the function-caching code for various procedural languages, which shouldn't invalidate the cache just because the tuple gets frozen.

The PostgreSQL contrib tree
---------------------------
This subtree contains porting tools, analysis utilities, and plug-in
features that are not part of the core PostgreSQL system, mainly
because they address a limited audience or are too experimental to be
part of the main source tree. This does not preclude their
usefulness.
User documentation for each module appears in the main SGML
documentation.
When building from the source distribution, these modules are not
built automatically, unless you build the "world" target. You can
also build and install them all by running "gmake all" and "gmake
install" in this directory; or to build and install just one selected
module, do the same in that module's subdirectory.
Some directories supply new user-defined functions, operators, or
types. To make use of one of these modules, after you have installed
the code you need to register the new SQL objects in the database
system by executing a CREATE EXTENSION command. In a fresh database,
you can simply do
CREATE EXTENSION module_name;
See the PostgreSQL documentation for more information about this
procedure.
