Currently, get_page_from_raw() is not used in the pageinspect functions for btree and heap to fetch a page image from raw page. However, the pageinspect for gin and hash is using it to avoid server crash on alignment picky machines with MAXALIGN = 8. Shouldn't we start using it in the pageinspect functions for btree and heap as well for safety purpose. Thoughts?
Although it is assumed that the functions are called using get_page_from_raw(), as shown by Peter's tests in adfb81d9e1d, I think it couldn't hurt to add an extra check, like in bt_page_items_bytea() and heap_page_items().
I can help with a review. Best regards, Jesper
