Commit 93f414614 improved a pre-existing test case so that it would show whether or not termination of the "remote" worker process happened. This soon exposed that, when debug_invalidate_system_caches_always (nee CLOBBER_CACHE_ALWAYS) is enabled, no such termination occurs. That's because cache invalidation forces postgres_fdw connections to be dropped at end of transaction, so that there's no worker to terminate. There's a race condition as to whether the worker will manage to get out of the BackendStatusArray before we look, but at least on buildfarm member hyrax, it's failed twice in two attempts. Rather than re-lobotomizing the test, let's fix this by transiently disabling debug_invalidate_system_caches_always. (Hooray for that being just a GUC nowadays, rather than a compile-time option.) If this proves not to be enough to make the test stable, we can do the other thing instead. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/3854538.1620081771@sss.pgh.pa.us
PostgreSQL Database Management System ===================================== This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL database management system. PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types and functions. This distribution also contains C language bindings. PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here: https://www.postgresql.org/download/ See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install PostgreSQL. That file also lists supported operating systems and hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL system. Copyright and license information can be found in the file COPYRIGHT. A comprehensive documentation set is included in this distribution; it can be read as described in the installation instructions. The latest version of this software may be obtained at https://www.postgresql.org/download/. For more information look at our web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
