Thanks for the new version patches.
Here are some comments for the v13-0001 patch.

1)

+					pgstat_setheader(&errmsg.m_hdr, PGSTAT_MTYPE_SUBSCRIPTIONERRPURGE);
+					pgstat_send(&errmsg, len);
+					errmsg.m_nentries = 0;
+				}

It seems we can invoke pgstat_setheader once before the loop like the
following:

+			errmsg.m_nentries = 0;
+			errmsg.m_subid = subent->subid;
+			pgstat_setheader(&errmsg.m_hdr, PGSTAT_MTYPE_SUBSCRIPTIONERRPURGE);

2)
+					pgstat_setheader(&submsg.m_hdr, PGSTAT_MTYPE_SUBSCRIPTIONPURGE);
+					pgstat_send(&submsg, len);

Same as 1), we can invoke pgstat_setheader once before the loop like:
+		submsg.m_nentries = 0;
+		pgstat_setheader(&submsg.m_hdr, PGSTAT_MTYPE_SUBSCRIPTIONPURGE);


3)

+/* ----------
+ * PgStat_MsgSubscriptionErrPurge	Sent by the autovacuum to purge the subscription
+ *									errors.

The comments said it's sent by autovacuum, would the manual vacuum also send
this message ?


4)
+
+	pgstat_send(&msg, offsetof(PgStat_MsgSubscriptionErr, m_reset) + sizeof(bool));
+}

Does it look cleaner that we use the offset of m_relid here like the following ?

pgstat_send(&msg, offsetof(PgStat_MsgSubscriptionErr, m_relid));

Best regards,
