hi.
I did some review for v28j

git am shows some whitespace error.

is unnecessary?

are these <optional> flags wrong? there is only one function currently:
pg_set_relation_stats(relation regclass, relpages integer, reltuples
real, relallvisible integer)
i think you want
pg_set_relation_stats(relation regclass, relpages integer default
null, reltuples real default null, relallvisible integer default null)
we can add following in src/backend/catalog/system_functions.sql:

select * from pg_set_relation_stats('emp'::regclass);
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION
  pg_set_relation_stats(
                        relation regclass,
                        relpages integer default null,
                        reltuples real default null,
                        relallvisible integer default null)
RETURNS bool
LANGUAGE INTERNAL
CALLED ON NULL INPUT VOLATILE
AS 'pg_set_relation_stats';


typedef enum ...
need to add src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list


+/*
+ * Check that array argument is one dimensional with no NULLs.
+ *
+ * If not, emit at elevel, and set argument to NULL in fcinfo.

+static void
+check_arg_array(FunctionCallInfo fcinfo, struct arginfo *arginfo,

+{

+

+ errmsg("\"%s\" array cannot contain NULL values",

+ }
+}
this part elevel should always be ERROR?
if so, we can just
+ ereport(ERROR,
+ (errcode(ERRCODE_INVALID_PARAMETER_VALUE),




relation_statistics_update and other functions
may need to check relkind?
since relpages, reltuples, relallvisible not meaning to all of relkind?
