Hey Maxime!

I squashed your code-related changes on top of 0001, and the test-related changes into 0002.
I also moved my test-related changes (Makefile / meson.build) from 0001 to 0002.
I squashed the remaining fixes (the InvalidOid and the pgindent; 0005) into 0001 as well, so now we have:

- 0001 - code-related changes
- 0002 - test-related changes
- 0003 - docs changes

I also added one more test to 0002 ("Width-sensitivity guard") and added the commit messages.
Last but not least, I preserved your changes as co-author in 0001 and 0002.

I hope I didn't miss anything!

Best regards!

Subject: [PATCH] Implement cross-type operators for GiST indexes

btree_gist's GiST opclasses were same-type only: the planner could use
an index only when the query value's type exactly matched the indexed
column. A common case like an int8 column compared against an int4
literal (WHERE bigint_col = 42) therefore could not use the index
unless the query was written with an explicit cast, which is easy to
forget and which ORMs and parameter binding routinely get wrong.

Add cross-type query operator support among the integer trio (int2,
int4, int8) to the gist_int2_ops, gist_int4_ops and gist_int8_ops
families. Each family gains the six B-tree comparison strategies
(<, <=, =, >=, >, <>) and the <-> distance operator against the other
two integer types.

The additions are deliberately pg_amop-only: GiST's amvalidate requires
support functions in a family to have matching left/right input types,
so no cross-type consistent/distance functions are registered. Instead
the existing support functions dispatch on the operator's subtype OID.
Same-type queries take the normal path; cross-type queries select a
comparison/distance callback that reads the query and key sides at their
own widths, so out-of-range query constants compare by normal integer
semantics without being narrowed to the column type.

To let the cross-type path reuse gbt_num_consistent(), all comparison
callbacks are now invoked as f(query, key): query on the left, key on
the right; one call site whose order differed is normalized. Note that
the subtype is InvalidOid for exclusion-constraint and temporal PK/FK
checks, which is handled as the same-type case.

This is exposed as btree_gist version 1.10.

From bdce40e8a75eea4f1df778376042dbcf8246d3a4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Alexander Nestorov <[email protected]>
Date: Thu, 4 Jun 2026 00:08:27 +0200
Subject: [PATCH] Add tests for cross-type operators for GiST indexes

Add a new int_crosstype regression test that drives the cross-type
comparison and <-> distance operators for every int2/int4/int8
combination through the index (with seqscan and bitmapscan disabled),
plus a multi-column index, query constants outside the indexed column's
range, and the standalone distance functions including their
overflow-detection paths.

Include a width-sensitivity guard: the constants are chosen so their low
16 bits collide with a value present in the data, so that reading either
side at the wrong width (a dispatch entry returning the wrong-width
callback, a truncated key, or the query/key arguments swapped in
gbt_num_consistent()/gbt_num_distance()) changes the result and fails
the test.

Also assert that the operator families contain no cross-type support
functions, matching the pg_amop-only design.

Subject: [PATCH] doc: Document cross-type operator support in btree_gist

Note that as of btree_gist 1.10 the int2, int4 and int8 operator
classes accept cross-type query operators (the B-tree comparison
operators and the <-> distance operator) against the other two
integer types without an explicit cast, and that out-of-range query
constants are compared by normal integer semantics.

Also document that the integer <-> distance is computed in float8, so
for int8 distances beyond 2^53 the result loses precision and may
reorder nearly-equidistant matches; it never changes which rows match.
