The "DROP ACCESS METHOD gist2" test will require locking the index to be dropped and then its table; while most ordinary operations lock a table first then its index. While no concurrent test scripts should be touching fast_emp4000, autovacuum might chance to be processing that table when the DROP runs, resulting in a deadlock failure. This is pretty rare but we see it in the buildfarm from time to time. To fix, acquire a lock on fast_emp4000 before issuing the DROP. Since the point of the exercise is mostly to prevent buildfarm failures, back-patch to 9.6 where this test was introduced. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/839004.1599185607@sss.pgh.pa.us
PostgreSQL tests ================ This directory contains a variety of test infrastructure as well as some of the tests in PostgreSQL. Not all tests are here -- in particular, there are more in individual contrib/ modules and in src/bin. Not all these tests get run by "make check".
