Thanks for the bug report. This issue happens only for version 9.4 and below.
In 9.5 and Head branches, because of the following commit, that introduces the
wait logic in reading/writing from client, thus it detects the interrupts and
terminates the backend. But in version 9.4 and below, the wait logic
doesn't exist
because of this reason, the backend is not terminated.
commit - 80788a431e9bff06314a054109fdea66ac538199
Simplify waiting logic in reading from / writing to client.
Similar fix is needed in the back branches. Comments?
