Hi,

I should post that in the general section but I am confused by the sentence "A 
parent partition is always going to have a lower relid than its children"


In the code, relid has many meanings and not only "oid of a class" as in 
https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/20910.1111734...@sss.pgh.pa.us ?

In fact, I want to be sure I can say to the developers they will always be able 
to create tables and partitions in any order :

create table child1(c1 int, c2 int);

create table midparent1(c1 int, c2 int) partition by list(c2);

alter table midparent1 attach partition child1 for values in (1);

create table child2 partition of midparent1 for values in (2);

create table topparent(c1 int, c2 int) partition by list(c1);

alter table topparent attach partition midparent1 for values in (1);

select relname, relkind, oid from pg_class where relname in ('topparent', 
'midparent1', 'child1', 'child2') order by oid asc;

  relname   | relkind |  oid
------------+---------+--------
 child1     | r       | 123989
 midparent1 | p       | 123992
 child2     | r       | 123995
 topparent  | p       | 123998
