The system expects TABLEFUNC RTEs to have coltypes, coltypmods, and colcollations lists, but outfuncs doesn't dump them and readfuncs doesn't restore them. This doesn't cause obvious failures, because the only things that look at those fields are expandRTE() and get_rte_attribute_type(), which are mostly used during parse analysis, before anything would've passed the parsetree through outfuncs/readfuncs. But expandRTE() is used in build_physical_tlist(), which means that that function will return a wrong answer for a TABLEFUNC RTE that came from a view. Very accidentally, this doesn't cause serious problems, because what it will return is NIL which callers will interpret as "couldn't build a physical tlist because of dropped columns". So you still get a plan that works, though it's marginally less efficient than it could be. There are also some other expandRTE() calls associated with transformation of whole-row Vars in the planner. I have been unable to exhibit misbehavior from that, and it may be unreachable in any case that anyone would care about ... but I'm not entirely convinced, so this seems like something we should back- patch a fix for. Fortunately, we can fix it without forcing a change of stored rules and a catversion bump, because we can just copy these lists from the subsidiary TableFunc object. readfuncs.c was also missing support for NamedTuplestoreScan plan nodes. This accidentally fails to break parallel query because a query using a named tuplestore would never be considered parallel-safe anyway. However, project policy since parallel query came in is that all plan node types should have outfuncs/readfuncs support, so this is clearly an oversight that should be repaired. Noted while fooling around with a patch to test outfuncs/readfuncs more thoroughly. That exposed some other issues too, but these are the only ones that seem worth back-patching. Back-patch to v10 where both of these features came in. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/17114.1537138992@sss.pgh.pa.us |

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/.
