While working on the big interrupts refactoring, I noticed that ExecAppendAsyncEventWait() doesn't include WL_LATCH_SET in the wait set. As a result, it will not wake up on an interrupt like a query cancel request or sinval catchup. I'm surprised this has gone unnoticed for so long. It's pretty easy to reproduce the issue with a foreign table over a view on "SELECT pg_sleep(100)", for example. Did I miss a bug report? At first glance the fix is very straightforward; we just need to call AddWaitEventToSet() to wait for WL_LATCH_SET too. However, when I did that the straightforward way, the 'postgres_fdw' test got stuck in a busy-loop in ExecAppendAsyncGetNext(). postgresForeignAsyncConfigureWait() does this: > else if (pendingAreq->requestor != areq->requestor) > { > /* > * This is the case when the in-process request was made by another > * Append.

I don't understand what that comment is trying to say. What is an "in-process request"? And why does postgres_fdw care what other async subplans are registered in the Append node? If it is legitimate for it to care, we probably should've abstracted that somehow, rather than expose that "GetNumRegisteredWaitEvents(set) == 1" means that there are no other events registered yet. In any case, the attached patch works and seems like an easy fix for stable branches at least. -- Heikki Linnakangas Neon (https://neon.tech)
