I updated the comment.  I recall having posted a patch for that once, but
perhaps went unnoticed.

About has_child, the other option is to make the minimum length of
appinfos list relkind-based, but  the condition quickly becomes ugly. Do
you have a suggestion?

AFAIK, none of the heap reloptions will be applicable to partitioned table
relations once we eliminate storage.

About autovacuum_* parameters - we currently don't handle partitioned
tables in autovacuum.c, because no statistics are reported for them. That
is, relation_needs_vacanalyze() will never return true for dovacuum,
doanalyze and wraparound if it is passed a RELKIND_PARTITIONED_TABLE
relation.  That's something to be fixed separately though.  When we add
autovacuum support for partitioned tables, we may want to add a new set of
reloptions (new because partitioned tables still won't support all options
returned by heap_reloptions()).  Am I missing something?

Thanks,
Amit

Subject: [PATCH 2/3] Avoid creating scan nodes for partitioned tables

* Currently, we create scan nodes for inheritance parents in their role
  as an inheritance set member.  Partitioned tables do not contain any
  data, so it's useless to create scan nodes for them.  So we need not
  create AppendRelInfo's for them in the planner prep phase.

* The planner prep phase turns off inheritance on the parent RTE if
  there isn't at least one child member (other than the parent itself
  which in normal cases is also a child member), which means the latter
  phases will not consider creating an Append plan and instead create a
  scan node. Avoid this if the RTE is a partitioned table, by noticing
  such cases in set_rel_size().  Per suggestion from Ashutosh Bapat.

* Since we do not add the RTE corresponding to the root partitioned
  table as the 1st child member of the inheritance set,
  inheritance_planner() must not assume the same when assigning
  nominalRelation to a ModifyTable node.

* In ExecInitModifyTable(), use nominalRelation to initialize tuple
  routing information, instead of the first resultRelInfo.  We set
  ModifyTable.nominalRelation to the root parent RTE in the
  partitioned table case (implicitly in the INSERT case, whereas
  explicitly in the UPDATE/DELETE cases).

Subject: [PATCH 3/3] Do not allocate storage for partitioned tables.

table.  So, they're empty at all times, which means it is wasteful to
allocate relfilenode and related storage objects.
