I don't think that we need to list all these operations in details
here. We could just say "if its database is involved in a CREATE,
ALTER or DROP database command". The docs should provide these
details, of course.
+#define BGWORKER_EXIT_AT_DATABASE_CHANGE 0x0004
I am checking this patch, and I think so used names can be little bit confusing
BGWORKER_EXIT_AT_DATABASE_CHANGE - it is used for disconnecting workers on the template database, and this database is not changing.
TerminateBgWorkersByDbOid - it doesn't terminate all workers, but only workers with some special flags
Maybe BGWORKER_INTERRUPTABLE and TerminateInterruptableBgWorkersByDbOid ?
Another question is if this cancellation should be implicit and should not require some special flag.
When I want to disconnect connections to database when I do drop, I have to use FORCE flag
So maybe there should be ALTER DATABASE ... RENAME ... FORCE - or if FORCE can terminare all workers (without special FLAG) ?
