some of the switch->default, default don't have ``break``.
The compiler doesn't require them, but I see that we do use them in a lot of places, so I'll incorporate this.
+ for (int i = 0; i < nitems; i++) + { + MVNDistinctItem *item = parse_state.distinct_items->elements[i].ptr_value;
exposing the ptr_value seems not a good idea, we can foreach_ptr the attached patch using foreach_ptr.
I didn't like this because it makes getting the index value harder, and the index value is needed in lots of places. Instead I used list_nth() and list_nth_int().
in function pg_ndistinct_in some errsave can change to ereturn. (I didn't do this part, though).

There's something that I like about the consistency of errsave() followed by a return that makes it clear that "the function ends here" that I don't get from ereturn().
What I would really like, is a way to generate unique (but translated) errdetail values, and move the errsave/ereturn to after the switch statement.
+ /* + * The attnum cannot be zero a negative number beyond the number of the + * possible expressions. + */ + if (attnum == 0 || attnum < (0-STATS_MAX_DIMENSIONS)) + { + errsave(parse->escontext, + errcode(ERRCODE_INVALID_TEXT_REPRESENTATION), + errmsg("malformed pg_ndistinct: \"%s\"", parse->str), + errdetail("Invalid \"%s\" element: %d.", + PG_NDISTINCT_KEY_ATTRIBUTES, attnum)); + return JSON_SEM_ACTION_FAILED; + } This part had no coverage tests, so I added a few.

as mentioned before + errsave(parse->escontext, + errcode(ERRCODE_INVALID_TEXT_REPRESENTATION), + errmsg("malformed pg_ndistinct: \"%s\"", parse->str), + errdetail("The \"%s\" key must contain an array of at least %d " + "and no more than %d attributes.", + PG_NDISTINCT_KEY_NDISTINCT, 2, STATS_MAX_DIMENSIONS)); here PG_NDISTINCT_KEY_NDISTINCT, should be PG_NDISTINCT_KEY_ATTRIBUTES.
