 * a tuple, plus the size of the null-values bitmap (at 1 bit per column),
 * plus MAXALIGN alignment, must fit into t_hoff which is uint8.  On most
 * machines the upper limit without making t_hoff wider would be a little
 * over 1700.  We use round numbers here and for MaxHeapAttributeNumber

 * In practice we want some additional daylight so that we can gracefully
 * support operations that add hidden "resjunk" columns, for example
 * SELECT * FROM wide_table ORDER BY foo, bar, baz.
 * In any case, depending on column data types you will likely be running

/*
 * Heap tuple header.  To avoid wasting space, the fields should be
 * laid out in such a way as to avoid structure padding.
 *
 * Datums of composite types (row types) share the same general structure
 * as on-disk tuples, so that the same routines can be used to build and
 * examine them.  However the requirements are slightly different: a Datum
 * does not need any transaction visibility information, and it does need
 * a length word and some embedded type information.  We can achieve this
 * by overlaying the xmin/cmin/xmax/cmax/xvac fields of a heap tuple
 * with the fields needed in the Datum case.  Typically, all tuples built
 * in-memory will be initialized with the Datum fields; but when a tuple is
 * about to be inserted in a table, the transaction fields will be filled,
 * overwriting the datum fields.
 *
 * The overall structure of a heap tuple looks like:
 *          fixed fields (HeapTupleHeaderData struct)
 *          nulls bitmap (if HEAP_HASNULL is set in t_infomask)
 *          alignment padding (as needed to make user data MAXALIGN'd)
 *          object ID (if HEAP_HASOID is set in t_infomask)
 *          user data fields
 *
 * We store five "virtual" fields Xmin, Cmin, Xmax, Cmax, and Xvac in three
 * physical fields.  Xmin and Xmax are always really stored, but Cmin, Cmax
 * and Xvac share a field.  This works because we know that Cmin and Cmax
 * are only interesting for the lifetime of the inserting and deleting
 * transaction respectively.  If a tuple is inserted and deleted in the same
 * transaction, we store a "combo" command id that can be mapped to the real
 * cmin and cmax, but only by use of local state within the originating
 * backend.  See combocid.c for more details.  Meanwhile, Xvac is only set by
 * old-style VACUUM FULL, which does not have any command sub-structure and so
 * does not need either Cmin or Cmax.  (This requires that old-style VACUUM
 * FULL never try to move a tuple whose Cmin or Cmax is still interesting,
 * ie, an insert-in-progress or delete-in-progress tuple.)
 *
 * A word about t_ctid: whenever a new tuple is stored on disk, its t_ctid
 * is initialized with its own TID (location).  If the tuple is ever updated,
 * its t_ctid is changed to point to the replacement version of the tuple.  Or
 * if the tuple is moved from one partition to another, due to an update of
 * the partition key, t_ctid is set to a special value to indicate that
 * (see ItemPointerSetMovedPartitions).  Thus, a tuple is the latest version
 * of its row iff XMAX is invalid or
 * t_ctid points to itself (in which case, if XMAX is valid, the tuple is
 * either locked or deleted).  One can follow the chain of t_ctid links
 * to find the newest version of the row, unless it was moved to a different
 * partition.  Beware however that VACUUM might
 * erase the pointed-to (newer) tuple before erasing the pointing (older)
 * tuple.  Hence, when following a t_ctid link, it is necessary to check
 * to see if the referenced slot is empty or contains an unrelated tuple.
 * Check that the referenced tuple has XMIN equal to the referencing tuple's
 * XMAX to verify that it is actually the descendant version and not an
 * unrelated tuple stored into a slot recently freed by VACUUM.  If either
 * check fails, one may assume that there is no live descendant version.
 *
 * t_ctid is sometimes used to store a speculative insertion token, instead
 * of a real TID.  A speculative token is set on a tuple that's being
 * inserted, until the inserter is sure that it wants to go ahead with the
 * insertion.  Hence a token should only be seen on a tuple with an XMAX
 * that's still in-progress, or invalid/aborted.  The token is replaced with
 * the tuple's real TID when the insertion is confirmed.  One should never
 * see a speculative insertion token while following a chain of t_ctid links,
 * because they are not used on updates, only insertions.
 *
 * Following the fixed header fields, the nulls bitmap is stored (beginning
 * at t_bits).  The bitmap is *not* stored if t_infomask shows that there
 * are no nulls in the tuple.  If an OID field is present (as indicated by
 * t_infomask), then it is stored just before the user data, which begins at
 * the offset shown by t_hoff.  Note that t_hoff must be a multiple of
 * MAXALIGN.

 * MinimalTuple is an alternative representation that is used for transient
 * tuples inside the executor, in places where transaction status information
 * is not required, the tuple rowtype is known, and shaving off a few bytes
 * is worthwhile because we need to store many tuples.  The representation
 * is chosen so that tuple access routines can work with either full or
 * minimal tuples via a HeapTupleData pointer structure.  The access routines
 * see no difference, except that they must not access the transaction status
 * or t_ctid fields because those aren't there.
 *
 * For the most part, MinimalTuples should be accessed via TupleTableSlot
 * routines.  These routines will prevent access to the "system columns"
 * and thereby prevent accidental use of the nonexistent fields.
 *
 * MinimalTupleData contains a length word, some padding, and fields matching
 * HeapTupleHeaderData beginning with t_infomask2. The padding is chosen so
 * that offsetof(t_infomask2) is the same modulo MAXIMUM_ALIGNOF in both
 * structs.   This makes data alignment rules equivalent in both cases.
 *
 * When a minimal tuple is accessed via a HeapTupleData pointer, t_data is
 * set to point MINIMAL_TUPLE_OFFSET bytes before the actual start of the
 * minimal tuple --- that is, where a full tuple matching the minimal tuple's
 * data would start.  This trick is what makes the structs seem equivalent.
 *
 * Note that t_hoff is computed the same as in a full tuple, hence it includes
 * the MINIMAL_TUPLE_OFFSET distance.  t_len does not include that, however.
 *
 * MINIMAL_TUPLE_DATA_OFFSET is the offset to the first useful (non-pad) data
 * other than the length word.  tuplesort.c and tuplestore.c use this to avoid
 * writing the padding to disk.
