Tom Lane 79853989c5 Clamp indexscan filter condition cost estimate to be not less than zero.
cost_index tries to estimate the per-tuple costs of evaluating filter
conditions (a/k/a qpquals) by subtracting the estimated cost of the
indexqual conditions from that of the baserestrictinfo conditions.  This is
correct so long as the indexquals list is a subset of the baserestrictinfo
list.  However, in the presence of derived indexable conditions it's
completely wrong, leading to bogus or even negative scan cost estimates,
as seen for example in bug #6579 from Istvan Endredy.  In practice the
problem isn't severe except in the specific case of a LIKE optimization on
a functional index containing a very expensive function.

A proper fix for this might change cost estimates by more than people would
like for stable branches, so in the back branches let's just clamp the cost
difference to be not less than zero.  That will at least prevent completely
insane behavior, while not changing the results normally.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================

This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

	http://www.postgresql.org/download

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Changes between all PostgreSQL releases are recorded in the
file HISTORY.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
http://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
