Enlarge assertion in bloom_init() for false_positive_rate

michaelpq · michaelpq · commit 1b2c6b756eaa · 2023-11-08T14:06:26.000+09:00
false_positive_rate is a parameter that can be set with the bloom opclass in BRIN, and setting it to a value of exactly 0.25 would trigger an assertion in the first INSERT done on the index with value set. The assertion changed here relied on BLOOM_{MIN|MAX}_FALSE_POSITIVE_RATE that are somewhat arbitrary values, and specifying an out-of-range value would also trigger a failure when defining such an index. So, as-is, the assertion was just doubling on the min-max check of the reloption. This is now enlarged to check that it is a correct percentage value, instead, based on a suggestion by Tom Lane.
