Prior to v15, GUC settings supplied in the CONNECTION clause of
CREATE SUBSCRIPTION were correctly passed through to
the publisher's walsender. For example:
CREATE SUBSCRIPTION mysub
CONNECTION 'options=''-c wal_sender_timeout=1000'''
PUBLICATION ...
would cause wal_sender_timeout to take effect on the publisher's walsender.
However, commit f3d4019da5d changed the way logical replication
connections are established, forcing the publisher's relevant
GUC settings (datestyle, intervalstyle, extra_float_digits) to
override those provided in the CONNECTION string. As a result,
from v15 through v18, GUC settings in the CONNECTION string were
always ignored.
This regression prevented per-connection tuning of logical replication.
For example, using a shorter timeout for walsender connecting
to a nearby subscriber and a longer one for walsender connecting
to a remote subscriber.
This commit restores the intended behavior by ensuring that
GUC settings in the CONNECTION string are again passed through
and applied by the walsender, allowing per-connection configuration.
Backpatch to v15, where the regression was introduced.
