Hah, nice one. Apparently the "detach the queue" path in
mq_putmessage() has never ever been tested, because it
contains a double pfree, and this fixes it:
diff --git a/src/backend/libpq/pqmq.c b/src/backend/libpq/pqmq.c
index 21ce180c78d..d038a9da515 100644
--- a/src/backend/libpq/pqmq.c
+++ b/src/backend/libpq/pqmq.c
@@ -140,7 +140,6 @@ mq_putmessage(char msgtype, const char *s, size_t len)
if (pq_mq_handle != NULL)
{
shm_mq_detach(pq_mq_handle);
- pfree(pq_mq_handle);
pq_mq_handle = NULL;
}
return EOF;
The necessity of this can be observed by noting that the last
step in shm_mq_detach() is to pfree the pointer it was handed.
