Does it mean how do we support Linux OS whose kernel version is less than 2.6.37? > I am not sure that suggested by you “socket_timeout” option should be > implemented. > As a workaround I suggest using asynchronous command processing > https://www.postgresql.org/docs/10/static/libpq-async.html There are many applications implemented with synchronous API (e.g. PQexec()), so "socket_timeout" is useful I think.
