    Fix up rickety handling of relation-truncation interlocks. · cbe9d6be
    Tom Lane 提交于
    Move rd_targblock, rd_fsm_nblocks, and rd_vm_nblocks from relcache to the smgr
    relation entries, so that they will get reset to InvalidBlockNumber whenever
    an smgr-level flush happens.  Because we now send smgr invalidation messages
    immediately (not at end of transaction) when a relation truncation occurs,
    this ensures that other backends will reset their values before they next
    access the relation.  We no longer need the unreliable assumption that a
    VACUUM that's doing a truncation will hold its AccessExclusive lock until
    commit --- in fact, we can intentionally release that lock as soon as we've
    completed the truncation.  This patch therefore reverts (most of) Alvaro's
    patch of 2009-11-10, as well as my marginal hacking on it yesterday.  We can
    also get rid of assorted no-longer-needed relcache flushes, which are far more
    expensive than an smgr flush because they kill a lot more state.
    
    In passing this patch fixes smgr_redo's failure to perform visibility-map
    truncation, and cleans up some rather dubious assumptions in freespace.c and
    visibilitymap.c about when rd_fsm_nblocks and rd_vm_nblocks can be out of
    date.
