Previously we checked if an operator is in pg_catalog, and if it wasn't we prefixed it with namespace in worker queries. This can have a huge impact on performance of physical planner when using custom data types.
This happened regardless of current search_path config, because Citus overrides the search path in get_query_def_extended(). When we do so, the check for existence of the operator in current search path in generate_operator_name() fails for any operators outside pg_catalog. This means that nothing gets cached, and in the following calls we will again recheck the system tables for existence of the operators, which took an additional 40-50ms for some of the usecases we were seeing.
In this change we skip the pg_catalog check, and always prefix the operator with its namespace.
- changes in ruleutils_11.c is reflected
- vacuum statement api change is handled. We now allow
multi-table vacuum commands.
- some other function header changes are reflected
- api conflicts between PG11 and earlier versions
are handled by adding shims in version_compat.h
- various regression tests are fixed due output and
functionality in PG1
- no change is made to support new features in PG11
they need to be handled by new commit
