Attached is an updated version of Tom's POC patch.  Here are changes:

* I modified his patch so that the called program inherits SIG_DFL for 
SIGUSR2 as well, as discussed upthread.

* I think it's better to ignore the SIGPIPE failure in 
ClosePipeToProgram if we were in a COPY FROM PROGRAM that was allowed to 
terminate early and keep the behavior as-is otherwise.  If we ignore 
that failure unconditionally in that function, eg, COPY TO PROGRAM would 
fail to get a (better) error message in CopySendEndOfRow or EndCopy when 
the invoked program was terminated on SIGPIPE, as discussed before [1]. 
  And to do so, I added a new argument to BeginCopyFrom to specify 
whether COPY FROM PROGRAM can terminate early or not.

Best regards,

Commits

  1. Handle EPIPE more sanely when we close a pipe reading from a program.

  2. Avoid defining SIGTTIN/SIGTTOU on Windows.

  3. Leave SIGTTIN/SIGTTOU signal handling alone in postmaster child processes.

  4. Remove some unnecessary pqsignal() calls to shave a few cycles off

  5. Fix handling of SIGCHLD, per recent pghackers discussion: on some

  6. The new files for statistical system views.

  7. Remove fork()/exec() and only do fork(). Small cleanups.
