 *
 * DESCRIPTION:
 * This file contains some routines used to implement a loop detection
 * mechanism.
 *
 * The Problem:
 * Sometimes a rule in order to calculate the value of an attribute
 * (that has a LockTypeWrite on it) need to execute a plan.
 * This plan might retrieve the same tuple that caused the
 * activation of the rule in the first place, thus reactivating the rule
 * ans causing a loop. 
 * For example, assume the rule:
 *    ON retrieve to EMP.salary where EMP.name = "Mike"
 *    DO INSTEAD retrieve (EMP.salary) where EMP.name = "Fred"
 * This rule states that if we try to retrieve Mike's salary
 * we must substitute Fred's salary instead.
 * If a user tries to retrieve Mike's salary the above rule will be
 * activated, and it will execute the plan:
 *    retrieve (EMP.salary) where EMP.name = "Fred"
 * Lets assume that the planner had decided to use a sequential scan
 * and that Mike's it encounter's Mike's tuple before it encounter's
 * Fred's. In this case the executor will try to retrieve both
 * name and salary of Mike's tuple at the same time (it first
 * retrieves all the attributes needed and *then* checks fo rthe
 * qualification, i.e. to see if name == "Fred".
 * So, as Mike's salary is retrieved, then the rule manager will
 * reactivate the rule above, which will try again to run the plan
 *    retrieve (EMP.salary) where EMP.name = "Fred"
 * which will cuase yet another activation of the rule etc....
 *
 * The Solution:
 * Every time we try to calculate the value of a tuple's attribute
 * by activating a rule, we put in a stack the correpsonding rule oid,
 * tuple oid and attribute number.
 * Before doing that though, we first check to see if there is already
 * a similar entry (same ruleId, tuple oid * attribute number) in the
 * stack. If yes, then we have entered a loop.
 * If no, we go ahead and execute the rule. When the rule has finished
 * its execution, we remove the entry from the stack.
 * Note that the length of the stack is proprtional to the depth
 * of the recursion in the ExecMain/rule manager calls.
 *
 * Some Options:
 * Once we have discovered a rule loop we have to decide what to do.
 * Some alternatives:
 *  1) Abort transaction! (not a good solution, as in some cases
 *     (as in the example above with Fred's & Mike's salary) the rule
 *     is OK, and the loop is created because of the implementation.
 *  2) Ignore this rule and either activate other rules that possibly
 *     exist, or use the value as stored in the tuple.
 *  3) Ignore the tuple altogether!
 *
 * MEMORY MANAGEMENT PROBLEMS:
 * Every time we push an item in the stack we first check if we have
 * enough space. If not, we allocate some new space, copty there the
 * contents of the old one and then free the old one.
 * However, as each recursive call of 'prs2Main' changes the memory
 * context (we do that to avoid memory leaks - see comments in prs2main.c)
 * it is possible that we allocate some space under a certain mem cntxt
 * and when we want to reallocate some more we are under another.
 * This of course causes bad things to happen and our beloved postgres
 * dies a horrible death.
 * So I did an extensive study of all the possible alternatives
 * carefully examining all the tradeoff involved, taking into account
 * all possible softawre engineering considerations, and finally after an
 * extensive period of thought (approximately 10 seconds) I decided
 * to create (yes!) yet another memory context specially designed and
 * custom made for the rule stack.
