Subject: Make simpler-simple-expressions code cope with a Gather plan.
X-Git-Tag: REL_11_BETA1~1791
X-Git-Url: https://granicus.if.org/sourcecode?a=commitdiff_plain;h=b73f1b5c29e0ace5a281bc13ce09dea30e1b66de;p=postgresql

Make simpler-simple-expressions code cope with a Gather plan.

Commit 00418c612 expected that the plan generated for a simple-expression
query would always be a plain Result node.  However, if force_parallel_mode
is on, the planner might stick a Gather atop that.  Cope by looking through
the Gather.  For safety, assert that the Gather's tlist is trivial.

Per buildfarm.
