We were applying constraint exclusion on the partition constraint when generating pruning steps for a clause, but only for the rather restricted situation of them being boolean OR operators; however it is possible to have differently shaped clauses that also benefit from constraint exclusion. This applies particularly to the default partition since their constraints are in essence a long list of OR'ed subclauses ... but it applies to other cases too. So in certain cases we're scanning partitions that we don't need to. Remove the specialized code in OR clauses, and add a generally applicable test of the clause refuting the partition constraint; mark the whole pruning operation as contradictory if it hits. This has the unwanted side-effect of testing some (most? all?) constraints more than once if constraint_exclusion=on. That seems unavoidable as far as I can tell without some additional work, but that's not the recommended setting for that parameter anyway. However, because this imposes additional processing cost for all queries using partitioned tables, I decided not to backpatch this change.

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: https://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. 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 https://www.postgresql.org/download/. For more information look at our web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
