Some buildfarm runs have failed like this:
============== dropping database "pl_regression" ==============
ERROR: database "pl_regression" is being accessed by other users
DETAIL: There is 1 other session using the database.

I can reproduce that reliably by combining "make -C src/pl installcheck" with
this hack:
proc_exit(int code)
{
+ pg_usleep(7000000);
This happens because dropdb()'s call to CountOtherDBBackends() waits up to 5s
for the database to become vacant. If the last plpython test backend takes
more than 5s to exit, the pltcl suite fails. Most test suites are unaffected,
thanks to USE_MODULE_DB=1 in the buildfarm script. However, PL suites ignore
USE_MODULE_DB. So do the three src/test/modules directories that contain no C
code and define $(REGRESS). Isolation suites, too, ignore USE_MODULE_DB.
I would like to fix this as follows. When MODULES and MODULE_big are both
unset, instead of using a constant string, derive the database name from the
first element of $(REGRESS) or $(ISOLATION). I considered $(EXTENSION), but
src/test/modules/commit_ts does not set it. $(REGRESS) and $(ISOLATION) are
robust; in their absence, a directory simply won't invoke pg_regress to drop
and/or create a database. I considered introducing a TESTDB_SUFFIX variable
that src/test/modules directories could define, but that felt like needless
flexibility. Treat src/pl in a similar fashion. With the attached patch,
installcheck-world and check-world no longer reuse any database name in a
given postmaster. Next, I'll mail this buildfarm client patch, after which
any non-MSVC, v9.5+ (due to ddc2504) buildfarm run would no longer reuse any
database name in a given postmaster:
--- a/run_build.pl
+++ b/run_build.pl

- @checklog = run_log("cd $pgsql/src/pl && $make installcheck");
+ my $cmd = "cd $pgsql/src/pl && $make USE_MODULE_DB=1 installcheck";
+ @checklog = run_log($cmd);
I plan to back-patch the PostgreSQL patch, to combat buildfarm noise. Perhaps
someone has test automation that sets USE_MODULE_DB and nonetheless probes the
exact database name "pl_regression", but I'm not too worried. The original
rationale for USE_MODULE_DB, in commit ad69bd0, was to facilitate pg_upgrade
testing. Folks using "make installcheck-world" to populate a cluster for
pg_upgrade testing will see additional test coverage, which may cause
additional failures. I'm fine with that, too.
