This is bug in behavior, not in tests. We need walrcv->is_temp_slot = false; somewhere in RequestXLogStreaming to works correctly. HEAD is not affected since primary_slot_name cannot be changed online. > (The thing is: if I specify primary_slot_name in the config, why is the > temp walreceiver slot code not obeying that name?
