/*
 *	The magnetic disk storage manager keeps track of open file
 *	descriptors in its own descriptor pool.  This is done to make it
 *	easier to support relations that are larger than the operating
 *	system's file size limit (often 2GBytes).  In order to do that,
 *	we break relations up into "segment" files that are each shorter than
 *	the OS file size limit.  The segment size is set by the RELSEG_SIZE
 *	configuration constant in pg_config.h.
 *
 *	On disk, a relation must consist of consecutively numbered segment
 *	files in the pattern
 *		-- Zero or more full segments of exactly RELSEG_SIZE blocks each
 *		-- Exactly one partial segment of size 0 <= size < RELSEG_SIZE blocks
 *		-- Optionally, any number of inactive segments of size 0 blocks.
 *	The full and partial segments are collectively the "active" segments.
 *	Inactive segments are those that once contained data but are currently
 *	not needed because of an mdtruncate() operation.  The reason for leaving
 *	them present at size zero, rather than unlinking them, is that other
 *	backends and/or the bgwriter might be holding open file references to
 *	such segments.	If the relation expands again after mdtruncate(), such
 *	that a deactivated segment becomes active again, it is important that
 *	such file references still be valid --- else data might get written
 *	out to an unlinked old copy of a segment file that will eventually
 *	disappear.
 *
 *	The file descriptor pointer (md_fd field) stored in the SMgrRelation
 *	cache is, therefore, just the head of a list of MdfdVec objects, one
 *	per segment.  But note the md_fd pointer can be NULL, indicating
 *	relation not open.
 *
 *	Also note that mdfd_chain == NULL does not necessarily mean the relation
 *	doesn't have another segment after this one; we may just not have
 *	opened the next segment yet.  (We could not have "all segments are
 *	in the chain" as an invariant anyway, since another backend could
 *	extend the relation when we weren't looking.)  We do not make chain
 *	entries for inactive segments, however; as soon as we find a partial
 *	segment, we assume that any subsequent segments are inactive.
 *
 *	All MdfdVec objects are palloc'd in the MdCxt memory context.

 * 2. We create a new relation, which by chance gets the same relfilenode as

 * if the contents of the file were repopulated by subsequent WAL entries.
 * But if we didn't WAL-log insertions, but instead relied on fsyncing the
 * file after populating it (as for instance CLUSTER and CREATE INDEX do),
 * the contents of the file would be lost forever.	By leaving the empty file
 * until after the next checkpoint, we prevent reassignment of the relfilenode
 * number until it's safe, because relfilenode assignment skips over any
 * existing file.
 *
 * If isRedo is true, it's okay for the relation to be already gone.
 * Also, we should remove the file immediately instead of queuing a request
