If UPDATE is forced to retry after an EvalPlanQual check, it neglected to repeat GENERATED-column computations, even though those might well have changed since we're dealing with a different tuple than before. Fixing this is mostly a matter of looping back a bit further when we retry. In v15 and HEAD that's most easily done by altering the API of ExecUpdateAct so that it includes computing GENERATED expressions. Also, if an UPDATE in a partitioned table turns into a cross-partition INSERT operation, we failed to recompute GENERATED columns. That's a bug since 8bf6ec3ba allowed partitions to have different generation expressions; although it seems to have no ill effects before that. Fixing this is messier because we can now have situations where the same query needs both the UPDATE-aligned set of GENERATED columns and the INSERT-aligned set, and it's unclear which set will be generated first (else we could hack things by forcing the INSERT-aligned set to be generated, which is indeed how fe9e658f4 made it work for MERGE). The best fix seems to be to build and store separate sets of expressions for the INSERT and UPDATE cases. That would create ABI issues in the back branches, but so far it seems we can leave this alone in the back branches. Per bug #17823 from Hisahiro Kauchi. The first part of this affects all branches back to v12 where GENERATED columns were added. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/17823-b64909cf7d63de84@postgresql.org
PostgreSQL Database Management System ===================================== This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL database management system. PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types and functions. This distribution also contains C language bindings. PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here: https://www.postgresql.org/download/ See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install PostgreSQL. That file also lists supported operating systems and hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL system. Copyright and license information can be found in the file COPYRIGHT. A comprehensive documentation set is included in this distribution; it can be read as described in the installation instructions. The latest version of this software may be obtained at https://www.postgresql.org/download/. For more information look at our web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
