Previously, the simplified partition creation syntax in GPDB did not properly handle MAXVALUE as a boundary value for subpartitions.
The fix allows users to define subpartitions with MAXVALUE boundaries using the simplified partition creation syntax, maintaining compatibility with existing partition functionality.
During the fix, it was also identified that MINVALUE has a similar issue.
However, addressing MINVALUE is more complex due to the current implementation of the START/EVERY/END grammar, which only considers the end boundary situation.
A broader refactor of the partition creation logic may be required to properly support MINVALUE in subpartition definitions.
