Bug reference: 15357
Logged by: Jobin Augustine
Email address: jobin.augustine@percona.com
PostgreSQL version: 11beta3
Operating system: Linux (CentOS 7.4 64 bit)
Description:

Steps to reproduce
=============
Step 1. Create a hash partitioned table
postgres=# CREATE TABLE hash_parted (
postgres(# a int
postgres(# ) PARTITION BY HASH (a);
CREATE TABLE

Step 2. Create a partition which accpets rows with remainder 0 after a
modulus operation
postgres=# CREATE TABLE hpart_1 PARTITION OF hash_parted FOR VALUES WITH
(MODULUS 10, REMAINDER 0);
CREATE TABLE

Step 3. Try inserting a row which will have remainder 0 after modulus
operation
postgres=# insert into hash_parted values (10);
ERROR: no partition of relation "hash_parted" found for row
DETAIL: Partition key of the failing row contains (a) = (10).

FAILED!

Step 4. Create a partition which accepts the remainder 9 after modulo
operation
postgres=# CREATE TABLE hpart_10 PARTITION OF hash_parted FOR VALUES WITH
(MODULUS 10, REMAINDER 9);
CREATE TABLE

Step 5. Try inserting a value 10
postgres=# insert into hash_parted values (10);
INSERT 0 1

Data gets inserted into a partition which is supposed to accept reminder 9
after modulo operation.

The hash function for integers does not return the input integer,
therefore the modulus is not that of the integer value. This is not a
bug.
