Re: Hash-based MCV matching for large IN-lists

Hello!

+ if (vardata.isunique && vardata.rel && vardata.rel->tuples >= 1.0)
+ {
+ s2 = 1.0 / vardata.rel->tuples;
+ if (HeapTupleIsValid(vardata.statsTuple))
+ {
+ Form_pg_statistic stats = (Form_pg_statistic) GETSTRUCT(vardata.statsTuple);
+ if (isInequality)
+ s2 = 1.0 - s2 - stats->stanullfrac;
+ }
+ }

Isn't there's a corner case where this if order returns an incorrect
estimate/regression?
See the following test:

CREATE TABLE test AS SELECT generate_series(1, 1000) AS id;
CREATE UNIQUE INDEX ON test(id);
-- no ANALYZE

EXPLAIN SELECT * FROM test WHERE id <> ALL(ARRAY[1, 2, 3]);
-- Actual: rows=1
-- Expected: rows=997

ANALYZE test;
EXPLAIN SELECT * FROM test WHERE id <> ALL(ARRAY[1, 2, 3]);
-- Correct: rows=997

DROP TABLE test;
