回复: BUG #18502: Upsert on view returns 42P10 error when condition is an expression

Thanks for the analysis. May I ask how long will it cost normally for such bug fix being released since I'm new to the community? And will it be back port to PG 12?

For the archives' sake: the error being complained of is

ERROR: there is no unique or exclusion constraint matching the ON CONFLICT specification

Thanks for the report. The fault lies with infer_arbiter_indexes(),
which assumes that it can match the output of
RelationGetIndexExpressions or RelationGetIndexPredicate
directly to the query without adjusting varnos. That works
most of the time, because the INSERT target typically has
varno 1, matching the way these trees are stored in the catalogs.
But not so much when we've flattened an updatable view;
so the match fails even when it should succeed.

The attached seems to be enough to fix it.
