I have now embedded the above incremental patch changes into the main
patch (v37) , which is attached.

Because it is used heavily in case of transition tables with
partitions, I have made TupConvMapForLeaf() a macro. And the actual
creation of the map is in separate function CreateTupConvMapForLeaf(),
so as to reduce the macro size.

Retained child_parent_map_not_required as a bool array, as against a bitmap.

To include one scenario related to on-demand map allocation that was
not getting covered with the update.sql test, I added one more
scenario in that file :
+-- Case where per-partition tuple conversion map array is allocated, but the
+-- map is not required for the particular tuple that is routed, thanks to
+-- matching table attributes of the partition and the target table.

Commits

  1. Avoid referencing off the end of subplan_partition_offsets.

  2. Allow UPDATE to move rows between partitions.

  3. Remove useless lookup of root partitioned rel in ExecInitModifyTable().

  4. Factor error generation out of ExecPartitionCheck.

  5. Minor preparatory refactoring for UPDATE row movement.

  6. Simplify and encapsulate tuple routing support code.

  7. Avoid coercing a whole-row variable that is already coerced.

  8. Use ResultRelInfo ** rather than ResultRelInfo * for tuple routing.

  9. Make RelationGetPartitionDispatchInfo expand depth-first.

  10. Expand partitioned tables in PartDesc order.

  11. Use a real RT index when setting up partition tuple routing.

  12. Fix transition tables for partition/inheritance.

  13. Fix confusion about number of subplans in partitioned INSERT setup.

  14. Prevent BEFORE triggers from violating partitioning constraints.

  15. Fire per-statement triggers on partitioned tables.

  16. Fix reporting of violations in ExecConstraints, again.

  17. Don't scan partitioned tables.

  18. Allow FDWs to push down quals without breaking EvalPlanQual rechecks.
