Robert Haas aea5d29836 Notify bgworker registrant after freeing worker slot.
Tom Lane observed buildfarm failures caused by the select_parallel
regression test trying to launch new parallel queries before the
worker slots used by the previous ones were freed.  Try to fix this by
having the postmaster free the worker slots before it sends the
SIGUSR1 notifications to the registering process.  This doesn't
completely eliminate the possibility that the user backend might
(correctly) observe the worker as dead before the slot is free, but I
believe it should make the window significantly narrower.

Patch by me, per complaint from Tom Lane.  Reviewed by Amit Kapila.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================

This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
http://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
