I happened to notice that Ashutosh's patch series at
https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/CAFjFpReJhFSoy6DqH0ipFSHd=sLNEkSzAtz4VWCaS-w2jZL=uw@mail.gmail.com
has a 0001 patch that modifies the partition_bound_cmp stuff too.
Are those conflicting?
Ashutosh's commit message:
Modify bound comparision functions to accept members of PartitionKey
Functions partition_bound_cmp(), partition_rbound_cmp() and
partition_rbound_datum_cmp() are required to merge partition bounds
from joining relations. While doing so, we do not have access to the
PartitionKey of either relations. So, modify these functions to accept
only required members of PartitionKey so that the functions can be
reused for merging bounds.
Amit's:
Some interface changes for partition_bound_{cmp/bsearch}
Introduces a notion of PartitionBoundCmpArg, which replaces the set
of arguments void *probe and bool probe_is_bound of both
partition_bound_cmp and partition_bound_bsearch. It wasn't possible
before to specify the number of datums when a non-bound type of
probe is passed. Slightly tweaking the existing interface to allow
specifying the same seems awkward. So, instead encapsulate that
into PartitionBoundCmpArg. Also, modify partition_rbound_datum_cmp
to compare caller-specifed number of datums, instead of
key->partnatts datums.
