Yeah, I think so. I grepped the buildfarm logs for similar failures and
found three occurrences:
https://buildfarm.postgresql.org/cgi-bin/show_log.pl?nm=bowerbird&dt=2019-02-03%2018%3A36%3A05
https://buildfarm.postgresql.org/cgi-bin/show_log.pl?nm=bowerbird&dt=2019-01-17%2014%3A30%3A07
https://buildfarm.postgresql.org/cgi-bin/show_log.pl?nm=drongo&dt=2020-01-02%2018%3A03%3A52
All of these are in the thread/descriptor test, failing at the deallocate
step in
for (i = 1; i <= REPEATS; ++i)
{
EXEC SQL ALLOCATE DESCRIPTOR mydesc;
EXEC SQL DEALLOCATE DESCRIPTOR mydesc;
}
where the test is running several of these in different threads.
I wonder whether there's some missing thread-locking in the ECPG
descriptor support. It is odd though that we have seen this only
on Windows members. Low-probability or not, you'd think we'd have
some similar reports from non-Windows critters if it were possible.
