Some review comments for patch v54-0004.
(since preparing this post, I saw you have already posted v55-0001 but
AFAIK, since 55-0001 is just a merge, the same review comments are
still applicable)
======
doc/src/sgml/catalogs.sgml
1.
<para>
- If true, this publication replicates the stored generated columns
- present in the tables associated with the publication.
+ <literal>n</literal> indicates that the generated columns in the tables
+ associated with the publication should not be replicated.
+ <literal>s</literal> indicates that the stored generated columns in the
+ tables associated with the publication should be replicated.
</para></entry>
It looks OK, but maybe we should use a wording style similar to that
used already for pg_subscription.substream?
Also, should this mention column lists?
SUGGESTION
Indicates how to handle generated column replication (when there is no
publication column list): <literal>n</literal> = generated columns in
the tables associated with the publication should not be replicated;
<literal>s</literal> = stored generated columns in the tables
associated with the publication should be replicated.
======
src/backend/commands/publicationcmds.c
parse_publication_options:
2.
bool *publish_generated_columns_given,
- bool *publish_generated_columns)
+ char *publish_generated_columns)
Why not use the PublishGencolsType enum here?
~~~
CreatePublication:
3.
- bool publish_generated_columns;
+ char publish_generated_columns;
AclResult aclresult;
Why not use the PublishGencolsType enum here?
~~~
AlterPublicationOptions:
4.
bool publish_generated_columns_given;
- bool publish_generated_columns;

Why not use the PublishGencolsType enum here?

defGetGeneratedColsOption::

+/*
+ * Extract the publish_generated_columns option value from a DefElem. "stored"
+ * and "none" values are accepted.
+ */
+static char
+defGetGeneratedColsOption(DefElem *def)
+{
The return type should be PublishGencolsType.
======
src/include/catalog/pg_publication.h
6.
- /* true if generated columns data should be published */
- bool pubgencols;
+ /*
+ * none if generated column data should not be published. stored if stored
+ * generated column data should be published.
+ */
+ char pubgencols_type;
} FormData_pg_publication;
Maybe this was accidentally changed by some global replacement you
did. IMO the previous (v53) version comment was better here.
- bool pubgencols;
+ /*
+ * 'n'(none) if generated column data should not be published.
+ * 's'(stored) if stored generated column data should be published.
+ */
======
FYI, please see the attached diffs where I have already made some of
these changes while experimenting with the suggestions.

Kind Regards,
