[ squint... ] Do we need those additional tests in plancat.c? I
haven't paid attention to whether we support unlogged indexes on logged
tables, but if we do, protecting the RelationGetNumberOfBlocks() call is
the least of your worries. You ought to be fixing things so the planner
won't consider the index valid at all (cf. the indisvalid test at line
165). Similarly, the change in estimate_rel_size seems to be at an
awfully low level, akin to locking the barn door after the horses are
out. What code path are you thinking will reach there on an unlogged
table?
It might be that it'd be best just to have both the planner and executor
throwing errors on unlogged tables, rather than rejiggering pieces of
the planner to sort-of not fail on an unlogged table.
