stores information about

is one row for each support function belonging to an operator family.

The usual interpretation of the
amproclefttype
and amprocrighttype
fields
is that they identify the left and right input types of the operator(s)
that a particular support function supports. For some access methods
these match the input data type(s) of the support function itself, for
others not. There is a notion of “default” support functions for
an index, which are those with amproclefttype
and
amprocrighttype
both equal to the index operator class's
opcintype
.
