Description:

hi

I encounter a problem of drop tablespace failed for reasion 'tablespace is
not empty'. The problem occurs in the following scenarios:

I start a transaction to create some table located in an alreaedy created
tablespace, before the transaction commits, the process of creating data is
killed by somebady with signal 9. when the database recoveried I try to drop
the tablesapce, it failed for 'tablespace is not empty'.

Does this bug need to be resolved ?

regards, ChenBo

Following is the scenarios:

postgres=# start transaction;
START TRANSACTION
