I noticed that the assertion you and I are seeing is also about
a bitfield:
TRAP: failed Assert("aio_ret->result.status != PGAIO_RS_UNKNOWN"), File:
"bufmgr.c", Line: 1605, PID: 79322
typedef struct PgAioResult
{
...
/* of type PgAioResultStatus, see above */
uint32 status:PGAIO_RESULT_STATUS_BITS;
...
} PgAioResult;
That doesn't make a lot of sense to me, because as far as I've
seen the bitfields in PgAioResult are not concurrently accessed.
But it feels like a relevant observation.
