Hi Thomas.
The primary idea of this patch was to provide more efficient plans for queries on partitioned tables.
So remove_restrictions_implied_by_constraints() removes redundant predicate checks.
But it doesn't work for standard Postgres 10 partitioning, because here constraints are set using intervals with open
highboundary and original version of
operator_predicate_proof() is not able to handle this case.
I have explained this problem in my previous e-mails in this thread.
This is why I have changed operator_predicate_proof() to correctly handle this case.
If you think this patch should be splitted into two, ok: I can do it.
I just want to notice that without patching operator_predicate_proof() it may give not positive effect for standard
partitioning,
which I expect to be the most popular use case where this optimization may have an effect.
Concerning broken partition_join test: it is "expected" failure: my patch removes from the plans redundant checks.
So the only required action is to update expected file with results.
Attached please find updated patch.
