Well, I can easily prove that CVS tip does call the operator function
and honor its result.
regression=# create table foo (f1 float8 unique);
NOTICE: CREATE TABLE / UNIQUE will create implicit index "foo_f1_key" for table "foo"
CREATE TABLE
regression=# insert into foo values(1);
INSERT 480998 1
regression=# insert into foo values(2);
INSERT 480999 1
regression=# select * from foo where f1 = 1;
f1
----
1
(1 row)
With gdb, I set a breakpoint at float8eq, and determine that it is
called exactly once (during _bt_checkkeys' scan setup) in this query.
Next, after some fooling about to determine which row in pg_amop
describes float8eq:
regression=# update pg_amop set amopreqcheck = true
regression-# where amopclaid = 1972 and amopsubtype = 0 and amopstrategy = 3;
UPDATE 1
Now the select calls float8eq twice, once from _bt_checkkeys and once
from IndexNext. Moreover I can force a zero result from float8eq in
the second call, and if I do then no rows are returned.
My guess is that your problem occurs because the index is not returning
the row in the first place, and thus there is nothing to recheck. This
would point to a bug somewhere in your GIST support functions.
