/*
 * brin_tuple.c
 *      Method implementations for tuples in BRIN indexes.
 *
 * Intended usage is that code outside this file only deals with
 * BrinMemTuples, and convert to and from the on-disk representation through
 * functions in this file.
 *
 * NOTES
 *
 * A BRIN tuple is similar to a heap tuple, with a few key differences.  The
 * first interesting difference is that the tuple header is much simpler, only
 * containing its total length and a small area for flags.  Also, the stored
 * data does not match the relation tuple descriptor exactly: for each
 * attribute in the descriptor, the index tuple carries an arbitrary number
 * of values, depending on the opclass.
 *
 * Also, for each column of the index relation there are two null bits: one
 * (hasnulls) stores whether any tuple within the page range has that column
 * set to null; the other one (allnulls) stores whether the column values are
 * all null.  If allnulls is true, then the tuple data area does not contain
 * values for that column at all; whereas it does if the hasnulls is set.
 * Note the size of the null bitmask may not be the same as that of the
 * datum array.
