Thanks for updating the patch,
here are a few comments on the v14-0001 patch.

1)
+				hash_ctl.keysize = sizeof(Oid);
+				hash_ctl.entrysize = sizeof(SubscriptionRelState);
+				not_ready_rels_htab = hash_create("not ready relations in subscription",
+												  64,
+												  &hash_ctl,
+												  HASH_ELEM | HASH_BLOBS);
+

ISTM we can pass list_length(not_ready_rels_list) as the nelem to hash_create.

2)

+	/*
+	 * Search for all the dead subscriptions and error entries in stats
+	 * hashtable and tell the stats collector to drop them.
+	 */
+	if (subscriptionHash)
+	{
...
+		HTAB	   *htab;
+

It seems we already delacre a "HTAB *htab;" in function pgstat_vacuum_stat(),
can we use the existing htab here ?


3)

 	PGSTAT_MTYPE_RESETREPLSLOTCOUNTER,
+	PGSTAT_MTYPE_SUBSCRIPTIONERR,
+	PGSTAT_MTYPE_SUBSCRIPTIONERRRESET,
+	PGSTAT_MTYPE_SUBSCRIPTIONERRPURGE,
+	PGSTAT_MTYPE_SUBSCRIPTIONPURGE,
 	PGSTAT_MTYPE_AUTOVAC_START,

Can we append these values at the end of the Enum struct which won't affect the
other Enum values.

Best regards,
Hou zj
