What I wanted to say about how to insert/update the tuple to
pg_subscription_worker_error is that we insert a new tuple for the
first time, then, when the next error occurred, the worker fetches the
tuple and checks if the error (i.e., error-LSN, error-cmd, and
error-message) is exactly the same as previous one. If it is, we can
skip updating it. But if we include the error-timestamp in the tuple,
we need to update it every time.
