I have updated the patch to display WARNING for each of the tablesync
slots during DropSubscription. As discussed, I have moved the drop
slot related code towards the end in AlterSubscription_refresh. Apart
from this, I have fixed one more issue in tablesync code where in
after catching the exception we were not clearing the transaction
state on the publisher, see changes in LogicalRepSyncTableStart. I
have also fixed other comments raised by you. Additionally, I have
removed the test because it was creating the same name slot as the
tablesync worker and tablesync worker removed the same due to new
logic in LogicalRepSyncStart. Earlier, it was not failing because of
the bug in that code which I have fixed in the attached.
I wonder whether we should restrict creating slots with prefix pg_
because we are internally creating slots with those names? I think
this was a problem previously also. We already prohibit it for few
other objects like origins, schema, etc., see the usage of
IsReservedName.
