Hmm, I think that RelationBuildPartitionDesc doesn't need to lock a
partition before fetching its relpartbound, because the latter can't
change if the caller is holding a lock on the parent, which it must be if
we're in RelationBuildPartitionDesc for parent at all. Am I missing
something?
As Michael pointed out, the first cleanup patch needs to be rebased due to
a recent commit [1]. I did that to see if something we did in that commit
made things worse for your patch, but seems fine. I had to go and change
things outside RelationBuildPartitionDesc as I rebased, due to the
aforementioned commit, but they're simple changes such as changing List *
arguments of some newly added functions to PartitionBoundSpec **. Please
find the rebased patches attached with this email.
Thanks,
Amit
