Okay, done that way. Please check attached v10 patch.

Removed parenthesis around opaque.

 I think you can save the value of

Okay, done that way.

 the reader's current-tuple pointer from being invalidated by splits or
 compactions.  (Of course, other buckets can still be split or compacted.)
 
-To keep concurrency reasonably good, we require readers to cope with
-concurrent insertions, which means that they have to be able to re-find
-their current scan position after re-acquiring the buffer content lock on
-page.  Since deletion is not possible while a reader holds the pin on bucket,
-and we assume that heap tuple TIDs are unique, this can be implemented by
-searching for the same heap tuple TID previously returned.  Insertion does
-not move index entries across pages, so the previously-returned index entry
-should always be on the same page, at the same or higher offset number,
-as it was before.
+To minimize lock/unlock traffic, hash index scan always searches entire hash
+page to identify all the matching items at once, copying their heap tuple IDs
+into backend-local storage. The heap tuple IDs are then processed while not
+holding any page lock within the index thereby, allowing concurrent insertion
+to happen on a same index page without any requirement of re-finding the current
+scan position for reader. We do continue to hold a pin on the bucket page, to
+protect against concurrent deletions and bucket split.
 
 To allow for scans during a bucket split, if at the start of the scan, the
 bucket is marked as bucket-being-populated, it scan all the tuples in that

From ef4180ffcaea44054d5b4894240be804c3970c6d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: ashu <ashutosh1...@example.com>
Date: Mon, 7 Aug 2017 16:22:19 +0530
Subject: [PATCH] Remove redundant hash function _hash_step and do some code
 cleanup.

Remove redundant function _hash_step() and some of the unused members
of HashScanOpaqueData. The function _hash_step() used to find the next
qualifing tuple in the index page is no more required as new hash index
works page at a time which means it reads all the qualifing tuples in a
page at once with the help of _hash_readpage().

Patch by Ashutosh Sharma <ashu.coe...@gmail.com>
