Expand description

A pg_catalog function, applied to the arguments a row produced.

None means this catalogue has no function of that name, and the caller refuses it by name — the same rule as Rel::missing, and for the same reason: psql writes these calls into queries it expects to work, so one that silently answered NULL would produce a \d that is wrong rather than one that says what it could not do.

Every one of them is a constant or a lookup. There is nothing to compute because there is nothing behind them: no roles, no search path, no defaults, no ACLs.
