Can we name the variable in_parallel_apply as parallel_apply and set
it in logicalrep_worker_launch() instead of in
ParallelApplyWorkerMain()?
Few other comments:
==================
1.
+ if (is_subworker &&
+ nparallelapplyworkers >= max_parallel_apply_workers_per_subscription)
+ {
+ LWLockRelease(LogicalRepWorkerLock);
+
+ ereport(DEBUG1,
+ (errcode(ERRCODE_CONFIGURATION_LIMIT_EXCEEDED),
+ errmsg("out of parallel apply workers"),
+ errhint("You might need to increase
max_parallel_apply_workers_per_subscription.")));
I think it is better to keep the level of this as LOG. Similar
messages at other places use WARNING or LOG. Here, I prefer LOG
because the system can still proceed without blocking anything.

Why do we need a transaction in this function?
3. Few suggestions to improve in the patch:
