We are planning to add a C extension (https://github.com/petropavel13/pg_rrule) to our shared postgresql cluster, and wondering what are the risk? (looking for the worst case scenario here)
If there is a SIGSEGV, SIGBUS, SIGABRT ..., is the whole server stopping, or just the request?
Knowing that the extension is only used in select statement, is there a risk of (on disk) data corruption?
Is the risk limited to the current database? (the extension will only be used by 1 application with 1 database, and we prefer not to impact other applications/databases)
Are there any techniques to limit/mitigate these risks? (configuration/compile flags/...)
