IIUC, here the problem is related to below part of code:
ExecInsert(..)
{
/* Process RETURNING if present */
if (resultRelInfo->ri_projectReturning)
result = ExecProcessReturning(resultRelInfo, slot, planSlot);
..
}
The reason is that planSlot is for foo1 and slot is for foo2 and when
it tries to access tuple during ExecProcessReturning(), it results in
an error. Is my understanding correct? If so, then can't we ensure
someway that planSlot also belongs to foo2 instead of skipping return
processing in Insert and then later do more work to perform in Update.
Like Takamichi-san, I also think here we don't need trigger/function
in the test case. If one reads the comment you have added in the test
case, it is not evident why is trigger or function required. If you
really think it is important to cover the trigger case then either
have a separate test or at least add some comments on how trigger
helps here or what you want to test it.
