Hi,
1. When using extended PGroonga
CREATE EXTENSION pgroonga;
CREATE TABLE memos (
id boolean,
content varchar
);
CREATE INDEX idxA ON memos USING pgroonga (id);
2. Disable bitmapscan and seqscan:
SET enable_seqscan=off;
SET enable_indexscan=on;
SET enable_bitmapscan=off;
3. Neither ID = 'f' nor id= 't' can use the index correctly.
postgres=# explain select * from memos where id='f';
QUERY PLAN
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Seq Scan on memos (cost=10000000000.00..10000000001.06 rows=3 width=33)
Filter: (NOT id)
(2 rows)
postgres=# explain select * from memos where id='t';
QUERY PLAN
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Seq Scan on memos (cost=10000000000.00..10000000001.06 rows=3 width=33)
Filter: id
(2 rows)
postgres=# explain select * from memos where id>='t';
QUERY PLAN
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Index Scan using idxa on memos (cost=0.00..4.01 rows=2 width=33)
Index Cond: (id >= true)
(2 rows)
The reason is that these expressions are converted to BoolExpr and Var.
match_clause_to_indexcol does not use them to check boolean-index.
patch attached.
