Okay, here is an updated patch. now uses IsBackendPid(), which is closely modeled (read cut-and-pasted) from TransactionIdIsInProgress().
Since it's no longer a pgstat function, I moved it to "misc.c". Not 100% that's the right place either, but it seemed like the best alternative. //Magnus >-----Original Message----- >From: Neil Conway [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] >Sent: den 22 maj 2004 10:00 >To: Magnus Hagander >Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >Subject: Re: [PATCHES] Cancel/Kill backend functions > > >Magnus Hagander wrote: >> Per previous discussions, here are two functions to send INT and TERM >> signals to other backends.They permit only INT and TERM, and permits >> sending only to postgresql backends (as registered in pgstat). > >Why does this depend on pgstat?
