correct me if i am wrong:
in orclause_hash, you just want to return a uint32, then why does the
JumbleExpr function return struct JumbleState.
here JumbleExpr, we just simply hash part of a Query struct,
so JumbleExpr's queryId would be confused with JumbleQuery function's queryId.

not sure the purpose of the following:
+ if (*queryId == UINT64CONST(0))
+ *queryId = UINT64CONST(1);

even if *queryId is 0
`hash += ((uint64) key->opno + (uint64) key->exprtype) % UINT64_MAX;`
will make the hash return non-zero?

+ MemSet(&info, 0, sizeof(info));
i am not sure this is necessary.

Some comments on OrClauseGroupEntry would be great.

seems there is no doc.

create or replace function retint(int) returns int as
$func$
begin return $1 + round(10 * random()); end
$func$ LANGUAGE plpgsql;

set enable_or_transformation to on;
EXPLAIN (COSTS OFF)
SELECT count(*) FROM tenk1
WHERE thousand = 42 AND (tenthous * retint(1) = NULL OR tenthous *
retint(1) = 3) OR thousand = 41;

returns:
QUERY PLAN
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Aggregate
-> Seq Scan on tenk1
Filter: (((thousand = 42) AND ((tenthous * retint(1)) = ANY
('{NULL,3}'::integer[]))) OR (thousand = 41))
(3 rows)

Based on the query plan, retint executed once, but here it should be
executed twice?
maybe we need to use contain_volatile_functions to check through the
other part of the operator expression.

+ if (IsA(leftop, Const))
+ {
+ opno = get_commutator(opno);
+
+ if (!OidIsValid(opno))
+ {
+ /* Commuter doesn't exist, we can't reverse the order */
+ or_list = lappend(or_list, orqual);
+ continue;
+ }
+
+ nconst_expr = get_rightop(orqual);
+ const_expr = get_leftop(orqual);
+ }
+ else if (IsA(rightop, Const))
+ {
+ const_expr = get_rightop(orqual);
+ nconst_expr = get_leftop(orqual);
+ }
+ else
+ {
+ or_list = lappend(or_list, orqual);
+ continue;
+ }
do we need to skip this transformation for the const type is anyarray?
