I have created a topup patch 0007 on top of v15-0006.
I revived the patch which removes -S option and adds some options
instead. The patch add option for --port, --username and --socketdir.
This patch also ensures that anyone cannot connect to the standby
during the pg_createsubscriber, by setting listen_addresses,
unix_socket_permissions, and unix_socket_directories.
Thanks and Regards,
