FYI, I found an unrelated bug within ruleutils.c (looks like the
targetlist kludge in set_deparse_planstate() isn't sufficiently
general):
postgres=# explain insert into upsert as u values('Bat', 'Bar') on
conflict (key) do update set val = excluded.val where exists (select 1
from upsert ii where ii.key = excluded.key);
ERROR: XX000: bogus varno: 65000
LOCATION: get_variable, ruleutils.c:5916
Obviously Vars of varno INNER_VAR are not expected here -- the subplan
makes set_deparse_planstate() not prepare get_variable() in the same
way that it prepares similar though simpler cases (e.g. no
subquery/subplan).
I don't have any bright ideas about how to fix this offhand. I believe
in principle that we ought to be able to fish through parent planstate
within set_deparse_planstate(), just in case it is called under these
circumstances, but that's pretty ugly, and is usually going to be
unnecessary. Doesn't look like there is a good way to delay the work
till get_variable() can see what looks like this case, either.
