Tom Lane 2f4e895be7 Allow adjusting session_authorization and role in parallel workers.
The code intends to allow GUCs to be set within parallel workers
via function SET clauses, but not otherwise.  However, doing so fails
for "session_authorization" and "role", because the assign hooks for
those attempt to set the subsidiary "is_superuser" GUC, and that call
falls foul of the "not otherwise" prohibition.  We can't switch to
using GUC_ACTION_SAVE for this, so instead add a new GUC variable
flag GUC_ALLOW_IN_PARALLEL to mark is_superuser as being safe to set
anyway.  (This is okay because is_superuser has context PGC_INTERNAL
and thus only hard-wired calls can change it.  We'd need more thought
before applying the flag to other GUCs; but maybe there are other
use-cases.)  This isn't the prettiest fix perhaps, but other
alternatives we thought of would be much more invasive.

While here, correct a thinko in commit 059de3ca4: when rejecting
a GUC setting within a parallel worker, we should return 0 not -1
if the ereport doesn't longjmp.  (This seems to have no consequences
right now because no caller cares, but it's inconsistent.)  Improve
the comments to try to forestall future confusion of the same kind.

Despite the lack of field complaints, this seems worth back-patching.
Thanks to Nathan Bossart for the idea to invent a new flag,
and for review.

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/.
