Thank you for working on this. This patch would be helpful for synchronous replication. I haven't looked at the code deeply yet, but I've reviewed the v6 patch set especially on subscriber side. All of the patches can be applied to current HEAD cleanly. Here is review comment. ---- CREATE SUBSCRIPTION commands accept work_mem < 64 but it leads ERROR on publisher side when starting replication. Probably we should check the value on the subscriber side as well. ---- When streaming = on, if we drop subscription in the middle of receiving stream changes, DROP SUBSCRIPTION could leak tmp files (.chages file and .subxacts file). Also it also happens when a transaction on upstream aborted without abort record. ---- Since we can change both streaming option and work_mem option by ALTER SUBSCRIPTION, documentation of ALTER SUBSCRIPTION needs to be updated. ---- If we create a subscription without any options, both pg_subscription.substream and pg_subscription.subworkmem are set to null. However, since GetSubscription are't aware of NULL we start the replication with invalid options like follows. LOG: received replication command: START_REPLICATION SLOT "hoge_sub" LOGICAL 0/0 (proto_version '2', work_mem '893219954', streaming 'on', publication_names '"hoge_pub"') I think we can set substream to false and subworkmem to -1 instead of null, and then makes libpqrcv_startstreaming not set streaming option if stream is -1. ---- Some WARNING messages appeared. Maybe these are for debug purpose?
