Before the v13-era commit 913bbd88d, check_sql_fn_retval fails to resolve polymorphic output types and then just throws up its hands and assumes the check will be made at runtime. I think that's true for ordinary functions returning RECORD, but it doesn't happen in CALL, potentially resulting in crashes if the actual output of the SQL procedure's SELECT doesn't match the type inferred from polymorphism. With a little bit of rearrangement, we can use get_call_result_type instead of get_func_result_type and thereby infer the correct types. I'm still unwilling to back-patch all of 913bbd88d, so if the types don't match you'll get an error rather than perhaps silently inserting a cast as v13 and later can. That's consistent with prior behavior though, so it seems fine. Prior to 70ffb27b2, you'd typically get other errors due to other shortcomings of CALL's management of polymorphism. Nonetheless, this is an independent bug. Although there is no bug in v13 and up, it seems prudent to add the test case for this to the newer branches too. It's clearly an under-tested area.

PostgreSQL tests ================ This directory contains a variety of test infrastructure as well as some of the tests in PostgreSQL. Not all tests are here -- in particular, there are more in individual contrib/ modules and in src/bin. Not all these tests get run by "make check". Check src/test/Makefile to see which tests get run automatically. authentication/ Tests for authentication (but see also below) examples/ Demonstration programs for libpq that double as regression tests via "make check" isolation/ Tests for concurrent behavior at the SQL level kerberos/ Tests for Kerberos/GSSAPI authentication and encryption ldap/ Tests for LDAP-based authentication locale/ Sanity checks for locale data, encodings, etc mb/ Tests for multibyte encoding (UTF-8) support modules/ Extensions used only or mainly for test purposes, generally not suitable for installing in production databases perl/ Infrastructure for Perl-based TAP tests recovery/ Test suite for recovery and replication regress/ PostgreSQL's main regression test suite, pg_regress ssl/ Tests to exercise and verify SSL certificate handling subscription/ Tests for logical replication
