Hi,

I noticed the patch no longer applies on the latest source.

And few comments.
1)
+static void set_parallel_vacuum_index_status(ParallelVacuumState *pvs,
+                                             bool bulkdel,
+                                             int num_index_scans);
+static void parallel_vacuum_all_indexes(ParallelVacuumState *pvs, bool bulkdel,
+                                        int num_index_scans);
...
+static bool index_can_participate_parallel_vacuum(Relation indrel,
+                                                  int num_index_scans);

Maybe the parameter num_index_scans can be replaced by a bool flag since it is
only used in the check "num_index_scans > 0" and "num_index_scans == 0".

2)
+        /* Reinitialize the parallel context to relaunch parallel workers */
+        if (!pvs->first_time)

It seems the ParallelVacuumState::first_time was not initialized before ?

Best regards
