The minmax opclass was using the wrong support functions when cross-datatypes queries were run. Instead of trying to fix the pg_amproc definitions (which apparently is not possible), use the already correct pg_amop entries instead. This requires jumping through more hoops (read: extra syscache lookups) to obtain the underlying functions to execute, but it is necessary for correctness. Author: Emre Hasegeli, tweaked by Álvaro Review: Andreas Karlsson Also change BrinOpcInfo to record each stored type's typecache entry instead of just the OID. Turns out that the full type cache is necessary in brin_deform_tuple: the original code used the indexed type's byval and typlen properties to extract the stored tuple, which is correct in Minmax; but in other implementations that want to store something different, that's wrong. The realization that this is a bug comes from Emre also, but I did not use his patch. I also adopted Emre's regression test code (with smallish changes), which is more complete.
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: http://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 http://www.postgresql.org/download/. For more information look at our web site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
