Hi,
Since Postgres 9.3, UPDATE statements generally try to grab FOR NO KEY UPDATE locks,
unless columns participating in UNIQUE indexes also were modified:

If we do an UPDATE statement and rewrite part of the key like "set a = a"
Postgres still grabs a FOR NO KEY UPDATE lock.
But if we do an UPSERT statement and rewrite part of the tuple key with the same value
in the ON CONFLICT clause, Postgres grabs a more aggressive FOR UPDATE lock.
(I couldn't provide a self-contained script, because we need to monitor row locks
in a separate connection). See below:
create extension if not exists pgrowlocks ;
create sequence if not exists books_id_seq ;
create table if not exists books (
id integer primary key default nextval('books_id_seq'),
provider_id int not null,
external_id text not null,
some_data text,
unique(provider_id, external_id) -- this is important
);
truncate books;
insert into books (provider_id, external_id) values (1, 'ABC');
create sequence if not exists books_id_seq ;
create table if not exists books (
id integer primary key default nextval('books_id_seq'),
provider_id int not null,
external_id text not null,
some_data text,
unique(provider_id, external_id) -- this is important
);
truncate books;
insert into books (provider_id, external_id) values (1, 'ABC');
-- Case 1 (passed): update uniq key to the same value;
-- expect No Key Update lock, because they key hasn't changed
begin;
update books set (provider_id, external_id) = (provider_id, external_id);
-- (run this query in a different connection)
SELECT p.* FROM books AS t, pgrowlocks('books') AS p WHERE p.locked_row = t.ctid;
/*
locked_row | locker | multi | xids | modes | pids
------------+---------+-------+-----------+-------------------+------
(0,1) | 2103114 | f | {2103114} | {"No Key Update"} | {0}
*/
rollback;
-- Case 2 (passed): update uniq key to a different value;
update books set (provider_id, external_id) = (provider_id, external_id);
-- (run this query in a different connection)
SELECT p.* FROM books AS t, pgrowlocks('books') AS p WHERE p.locked_row = t.ctid;
/*
locked_row | locker | multi | xids | modes | pids
------------+---------+-------+-----------+-------------------+------
(0,1) | 2103114 | f | {2103114} | {"No Key Update"} | {0}
*/
rollback;
-- Case 2 (passed): update uniq key to a different value;
-- expect For Update lock, because the uniq key has changed
begin;
update books set (provider_id, external_id) = (2, 'ABC');
-- (run this query in a different connection)
SELECT p.* FROM books AS t, pgrowlocks('books') AS p WHERE p.locked_row = t.ctid;
/*
locked_row | locker | multi | xids | modes | pids
------------+---------+-------+-----------+----------+------
(0,1) | 2103117 | f | {2103117} | {Update} | {0}
*/
rollback;
-- Case 3 (failed): update uniq key to the same value, but use the UPSERT query,
update books set (provider_id, external_id) = (2, 'ABC');
-- (run this query in a different connection)
SELECT p.* FROM books AS t, pgrowlocks('books') AS p WHERE p.locked_row = t.ctid;
/*

------------+---------+-------+-----------+----------+------
(0,1) | 2103117 | f | {2103117} | {Update} | {0}
*/
rollback;
-- Case 3 (failed): update uniq key to the same value, but use the UPSERT query,
-- expect No Key Update lock because the key hasn't changed,
-- but we actually get For Update lock
begin;
insert into books (provider_id, external_id)
begin;
insert into books (provider_id, external_id)
select 1, 'ABC'
on conflict (provider_id, external_id)
do update set (provider_id, external_id) = (excluded.provider_id, excluded.external_id);
-- (run this query in a different connection)
SELECT p.* FROM books AS t, pgrowlocks('books') AS p WHERE p.locked_row = t.ctid;

*/
rollback;
-- Case 4, same UPSERT, but don't update uniq key in the ON CONFLICT clause,
-- (run this query in a different connection)
SELECT p.* FROM books AS t, pgrowlocks('books') AS p WHERE p.locked_row = t.ctid;

*/
rollback;
-- Case 4, same UPSERT, but don't update uniq key in the ON CONFLICT clause,
-- expect No Key Update lock because the key hasn't changed
begin;
insert into books (provider_id, external_id, some_data)
begin;
insert into books (provider_id, external_id, some_data)
select 1, 'ABC', 'some data'
on conflict (provider_id, external_id)
do update set some_data = excluded.some_data;
-- (run this query in a different connection)
SELECT p.* FROM books AS t, pgrowlocks('books') AS p WHERE p.locked_row = t.ctid;
/*
locked_row | locker | multi | xids | modes | pids
------------+---------+-------+-----------+-------------------+------
(0,1) | 2103122 | f | {2103122} | {"No Key Update"} | {0}
*/
rollback;
-- (run this query in a different connection)
SELECT p.* FROM books AS t, pgrowlocks('books') AS p WHERE p.locked_row = t.ctid;

So in case 3 we rewrite the key part of the tuple with the same value
and get the stronger FOR UPDATE lock.
While in case 1 we do the same but acquire a softer FOR NO KEY UPDATE lock
which is the correct behavior since we haven't actually changed the key.
This is inconsistent.
I expect UPSERT query in case 3 to grab a FOR NO KEY UPDATE lock
because SET (a, b) = (excluded.a, excluded.b) is not actually modifying the key.
Unnecessarily stronger locks increase lock contentions,
for example blocking FK constraint checks.
Postgres version: PostgreSQL 12.4 on x86_64-apple-darwin16.7.0, compiled by Apple LLVM version 8.1.0 (clang-802.0.42), 64-bit
Also reproduced with Postgresql 12.2 on a Linux box.
