partition_rbound_cmp() is intended to compare range partition bounds in a way such that if all the bound values are equal but one is an upper bound and one is a lower bound, the upper bound is treated as smaller than the lower bound. This particular ordering is required by RelationBuildPartitionDesc() when building the PartitionBoundInfoData, so that it can consistently keep only the upper bounds when upper and lower bounds coincide. Update the function comment to make that clearer. Also, fix a (currently unreachable) corner-case bug -- if the bound values coincide and they contain unbounded values, fall through to the lower-vs-upper comparison code, rather than immediately returning 0. Currently it is not possible to define coincident upper and lower bounds containing unbounded columns, but that may change in the future, so code defensively.

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/.
