Seems all process blocked by a system service "fapolicy.d", when I stop the service, defunct process got
disappearedand pending backends got released or moving on, and database started to accept new connection again.
This fapolicy.d in RHEL8.4 is enabled by system admin to support security compliance requirements.
systemctl stop fapolicyd , after that, everything go back to be normal soon.
Regards,
James

Maybe any bugs from these extensions ? I can try that removing all extensions, but we need these extensions.
Thanks,

Can you still reproduce this if you remove all of those?
