Hello.

While I looked into a patch, I noticed that check_tuple_attribute does
not run the check for compessed data even if a compressed data is
given.

check_tuple_attribute()
..
        struct varatt_external toast_pointer;
..
        VARATT_EXTERNAL_GET_POINTER(toast_pointer, attr);
..
        if (VARATT_IS_COMPRESSED(&toast_pointer))
    {

Since toast_pointer is a varatt_exteral it should be
VARATT_EXTERNAL_IS_COMPRESSED instead.  Since the just following
corss-check is just the reverse of what the macro does, it is useless.

What do you think about the attached?  The problem code is new in
PG15.

regards.

Subject: [PATCH] Use correct macro to check compressed-ness in amcheck

check_tuple_attribute uses VARATT_IS_COMPRESSED() for
varatt_external. This should be VARATT_EXTERNAL_IS_COMPRESSED()
instead.  Remove the following cross check for data size since the
ycondition cannot be true.
