Previously, the partitionwise join technique only allowed partitionwise join when input partitioned tables had exactly the same partition bounds. This commit extends the technique to some cases when the tables have different partition bounds, by using an advanced partition-matching algorithm introduced by this commit. For both the input partitioned tables, the algorithm checks whether every partition of one input partitioned table only matches one partition of the other input partitioned table at most, and vice versa. In such a case the join between the tables can be broken down into joins between the matching partitions, so the algorithm produces the pairs of the matching partitions, plus the partition bounds for the join relation, to allow partitionwise join for computing the join. Currently, the algorithm works for list-partitioned and range-partitioned tables, but not hash-partitioned tables. See comments in partition_bounds_merge().

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/.
