Dispatches from the department of grammatical nitpicking...
+ entire table, however if a valid <literal>CHECK</literal> constraint is
I think this should be:
entire table; however, if...
+ * are set NOT NULL, however, if we can find a constraint which proves
similarly here
+ ereport(DEBUG1,
+ (errmsg("verifying table \"%s\" NOT NULL constraint "

+ RelationGetRelationName(rel), NameStr(attr->attname))));
Ugh, that doesn't read well at all. How about:
existing constraints on column "%s"."%s" are sufficient to prove that
it does not contain nulls
- * in implicit-AND form.
+ * in implicitly-AND form, must only contain immutable clauses
+ * and all Vars must be varno=1.
I think you should leave the existing sentence alone (implicit-AND is
correct, implicitly-AND is not) and add a new sentence that says the
stuff you want to add.
+ * "Existing constraints" include its check constraints and optional
+ * caller-provided existConstraint list. existConstraint list is modified
+ * during ConstraintImpliedByRelConstraint call and would represent all
+ * assumed conditions. testConstraint describes the constraint to validate.
+ * Both existConstraint and testConstraint must be in implicitly-AND form,
+ * must only contain immutable clauses and all Vars must be varno=1.
I think that it might be better to copy the list rather than to have
the comment note that it gets mutated, but regardless the grammar
needs improvement here. Maybe: On entry, existConstraint is a
caller-provided list of conditions which this function may assume to
be true; on exit, it will have been destructively modified by the
addition of the table's CHECK constraints. testConstraint is the
constraint to validate. Both existConstraint and testConstraint must
be in implicit-AND form, must only contain immutable clauses, and must
contain only Vars with varno = 1.
- * not-false and try to prove the same for partConstraint.
- *
- * Note that predicate_implied_by assumes its first argument is known
- * immutable. That should always be true for partition constraints, so we
- * don't test it here.
+ * not-false and try to prove the same for testConstraint.
I object to removing this.
