History

Heikki Linnakangas bb861414fe Kill dead-end children when there's nothing else left Previously, the postmaster would never try to kill dead-end child processes, even if there were no other processes left. A dead-end backend will eventually exit, when authentication_timeout expires, but if a dead-end backend is the only thing that's preventing the server from shutting down, it seems better to kill it immediately. It's particularly important, if there was a bug in the early startup code that prevented a dead-end child from timing out and exiting normally. Includes a test for that case where a dead-end backend previously prevented the server from shutting down.

Regression tests for postmaster
===============================

This directory contains a test suite for postmaster's handling of
connections, connection limits, and startup/shutdown sequence.


Running the tests
=================

NOTE: You must have given the --enable-tap-tests argument to configure.

Run
    make check
or
    make installcheck
You can use "make installcheck" if you previously did "make install".
In that case, the code in the installation tree is tested.  With
"make check", a temporary installation tree is built from the current
sources and then tested.

Either way, this test initializes, starts, and stops a test Postgres
cluster.

See src/test/perl/README for more info about running these tests.
