Previously pgwin32_is_service() would falsely return true when
postgres is started from somewhere within a service, but not as a
service. That is e.g. always the case with windows docker containers,
which some CI services use to run windows tests in.

In addition to this change, it likely would be a good idea to have
pg_ctl runservice pass down a flag indicating that postgres is running
as a service.

* [PATCH v2] windows: Only consider us to be running as service if stderr is invalid.

Previously pgwin32_is_service() would falsely return true when
postgres is started from somewhere within a service, but not as a
service. That is e.g. always the case with windows docker containers,
which some CI services use to run windows tests in.

In addition to this change, it likely would be a good idea to have
pg_ctl runservice pass down a flag indicating that postgres is running
as a service.

* [PATCH v2] windows: Only consider us to be running as service if stderr is invalid.

Previously pgwin32_is_service() would falsely return true when
postgres is started from somewhere within a service, but not as a
service. That is e.g. always the case with windows docker containers,
which some CI services use to run windows tests in.

In addition to this change, it likely would be a good idea to have
pg_ctl runservice pass down a flag indicating that postgres is running
as a service.

* [PATCH v2] windows: Only consider us to be running as service if stderr is invalid.

Previously pgwin32_is_service() would falsely return true when
postgres is started from somewhere within a service, but not as a
service. That is e.g. always the case with windows docker containers,
which some CI services use to run windows tests in.

In addition to this change, it likely would be a good idea to have
pg_ctl runservice pass down a flag indicating that postgres is running
as a service.

* [PATCH v2] windows: Only consider us to be running as service if stderr is invalid.

Previously pgwin32_is_service() would falsely return true when
postgres is started from somewhere within a service, but not as a
service. That is e.g. always the case with windows docker containers,
which some CI services use to run windows tests in.

In addition to this change, it likely would be a good idea to have
pg_ctl runservice pass down a flag indicating that postgres is running
as a service.

PG version 15.4
i read code about pg_dump &amp; pg_restore, there is an option -j/--jobs related with parallel,
i have questions about parallel dump &amp; restore
1)&nbsp;In pg_dump when running parallel dump, it can ensure dump data consistency using synchronized snaphot,

why should it start a trasaction in every parallel jobs, also set isolation level ,read only, and no need commit trasaction
2)&nbsp;In pg_restore there are no actions same with pg_dump under parallel mode, how to ensure restore data consistency?

no trasaction and no commit action
3)&nbsp;when we do dump or restore under parallel mode, should we set whole database read-only(write behavior forbidden??)
