Hi hackers,

NEW.<generated_coulmn> is resolved to the OLD row's value
for update or NULL for insert cases in a DO ALSO rule action for
generated columns.  This bug affects both stored and virtual
generated columns. Reporting here to see if this is a known issue
with generated columns.

Repro:

CREATE TABLE t (id int PRIMARY KEY, a int,
                gen int GENERATED ALWAYS AS (a * 2) VIRTUAL);
CREATE TABLE t_log (op text, old_gen int, new_gen int);

CREATE RULE t_log AS ON UPDATE TO t
  DO ALSO INSERT INTO t_log VALUES ('UPD', OLD.gen, NEW.gen);

INSERT INTO t (id, a) VALUES (1, 5);
UPDATE t SET a = 100 WHERE id = 1;

postgres=# SELECT * FROM t;
 id |  a  | gen
----+-----+-----
  1 | 100 | 200
(1 row)

postgres=# SELECT * FROM t_log;
 op  | old_gen | new_gen
-----+---------+---------
 UPD |      10 |      10
(1 row)

Thanks,
Satya
