Tom Lane 3e1683d37e Fix, or at least ameliorate, bugs in logicalrep_worker_launch().
If we failed to get a background worker slot, the code just walked
away from the logicalrep-worker slot it already had, leaving that
looking like the worker is still starting up.  This led to an indefinite
hang in subscription startup, as reported by Thomas Munro.  We must
release the slot on failure.

Also fix a thinko: we must capture the worker slot's generation before
releasing LogicalRepWorkerLock the first time, else testing to see if
it's changed is pretty meaningless.

BTW, the CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS() in WaitForReplicationWorkerAttach is a
ticking time bomb, even without considering the possibility of elog(ERROR)
in one of the other functions it calls.  Really, this entire business needs
a redesign with some actual thought about error recovery.  But for now
I'm just band-aiding the case observed in testing.

Back-patch to v10 where this code was added.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================

This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

	https://www.postgresql.org/download

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
https://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
