Hi, here's an updated version of the patch, including a backport version. I ended up making the code yet a bit closer to master by introducing add_values_to_range(). The current pre-14 code has the loop adding data to the BRIN tuple in two places, but with the "fixed" logic handling NULLs and the

Hi, It took me a while but I finally got back to reworking this to use the bt_info bit, as proposed by Alvaro. And it turned out to work great, because (a) it's a tuple-level flag, i.e. the right place, and (b) it does not overload existing flags. This greatly simplified the code in add_values_to

Thanks for doing all this. (Do I understand correctly that this patch is not in the commitfest?) I think my mental model for this was that "allnulls" meant that either there are no values for the column in question or that the values were all nulls (For minmax without NULL handling, which is whe

Hi, here's an improved and cleaned-up version of the fix. I removed brinbugs.sql from pageinspect, because it seems enough to have the other tests (I added brinbugs first, before realizing those exist). This also means meson.build is fine and there are no tests doing CREATE EXTENSION concurrently

Hi, While working on some BRIN code, I discovered a bug in handling NULL values - when inserting a non-NULL value into a NULL-only range, we reset the all_nulls flag but don't update the has_nulls flag. And because of that we then fail to return the range for IS NULL ranges. Reproducing this is t
