Hi, The comments for create_foreignscan_path says as follows, but that it's now possible that the function is called by GetForeignJoinPaths, which was added in 9.5.
1450 /* 1451 * create_foreignscan_path 1452 * Creates a path corresponding to a scan of a foreign table, 1453 * returning the pathnode. 1454 * 1455 * This function is never called from core Postgres; rather, it's expected 1456 * to be called by the GetForeignPaths function of a foreign data wrapper. 1457 * We make the FDW supply all fields of the path, since we do not have any 1458 * way to calculate them in core. 1459 */ So, I've updated the comments. Please find attached a patch. Best regards, Etsuro Fujita
