Like the similar logic for arrays and records, it's necessary to examine the range's subtype to decide whether the range type can support hashing. We can omit checking the subtype for btree-defined operations, though, since range subtypes are required to have those operations. (Possibly that simplification for btree cases led us to overlook that it does not apply for hash cases.) This is only an issue if the subtype lacks hash support, which is not true of any built-in range type, but it's easy to demonstrate a problem with a range type over, eg, money: you can get a "could not identify a hash function" failure when the planner is misled into thinking that hash join or aggregation would work. This was born broken, so back-patch to all supported branches.
PostgreSQL Database Management System ===================================== This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL database management system. PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types and functions. This distribution also contains C language bindings. PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here: https://www.postgresql.org/download See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install PostgreSQL. That file also lists supported operating systems and hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL system. Copyright and license information can be found in the file COPYRIGHT. A comprehensive documentation set is included in this distribution; it can be read as described in the installation instructions. The latest version of this software may be obtained at https://www.postgresql.org/download/. For more information look at our web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
