The PostgreSQL contrib tree
---------------------------
This subtree contains porting tools, analysis utilities, and plug-in
features that are not part of the core PostgreSQL system, mainly
because they address a limited audience or are too experimental to be
part of the main source tree. This does not preclude their
usefulness.
User documentation for each module appears in the main SGML
documentation.
When building from the source distribution, these modules are not
built automatically, unless you build the "world" target. You can
also build and install them all by running "make all" and "make
install" in this directory; or to build and install just one selected
module, do the same in that module's subdirectory.
Some directories supply new user-defined functions, operators, or
types. To make use of one of these modules, after you have installed
the code you need to register the new SQL objects in the database
system by executing a CREATE EXTENSION command. In a fresh database,
you can simply do
CREATE EXTENSION module_name;
See the PostgreSQL documentation for more information about this
procedure.

A parallel worker process should not be making any decisions of its own about whether to auto-explain. If the parent session process passed down flags asking for instrumentation data, do that, otherwise not. Trying to enable instrumentation anyway leads to bugs like the "could not find key N in shm TOC" failure reported in bug #15821 from Christian Hofstaedtler. We can implement this cheaply by piggybacking on the existing logic for not doing anything when we've chosen not to sample a statement. While at it, clean up some tin-eared coding related to the sampling feature, including an off-by-one error that meant that asking for 1.0 sampling rate didn't actually result in sampling every statement. Although the specific case reported here only manifested in >= v11, I believe that related misbehaviors can be demonstrated in any version that has parallel query; and the off-by-one error is certainly there back to 9.6 where that feature was added. So back-patch to 9.6. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/15821-5eb422e980594075@postgresql.org
