ba2a3c2302 has added a way to check if a buffer is spread across
multiple pages with some NUMA information, via a new view
pg_buffercache_numa that depends on pg_buffercache_numa_pages(), a SQL
function. These can only be queried when support for libnuma exists,
generating an error if not.
However, it can be useful to know how shared buffers and OS pages map
when NUMA is not supported or not available. This commit expands the
capabilities around pg_buffercache_numa:
- pg_buffercache_numa_pages() is refactored as an internal function,
able to optionally process NUMA. Its SQL definition prior to this
commit is still around to ensure backward-compatibility with v1.6.
- A SQL function called pg_buffercache_os_pages() is added, able to work
with or without NUMA.
- The view pg_buffercache_numa is redefined to use
pg_buffercache_os_pages().
- A new view is added, called pg_buffercache_os_pages. This ignores
NUMA for its result processing, for a better efficiency.
The implementation is done so as there is no code duplication between
the NUMA and non-NUMA views/functions, relying on one internal function
that does the job for all of them. The module is bumped to v1.7.

---------------------------
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 "make all" and "make
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.
