    1) Maybe it is fine, but now I do not like this part:

    +    portal = GetPortalByName("");
    +    dest = CreateDestReceiver(DestRemote);
    +    SetRemoteDestReceiverParams(dest, portal);
    +    dest->rStartup(dest, (int) CMD_SELECT, tupDesc);

    Here you implicitly use the fact that portal with a blank name is
    always
    created in exec_simple_query before we get to this point. Next, you
    create new DestReceiver and set it to this portal, but it is also
    already created and set in the exec_simple_query.

    Would it be better if you just explicitly pass ready DestReceiver to
    DoCopy (similarly to how it is done for T_ExecuteStmt /
    ExecuteQuery),


Good idea .Thank you

Now the whole patch works exactly as expected for me and I cannot find any new technical flaws. However, the doc is rather vague, especially these places:

+      specifying it to -1 returns all error record.

Actually, we return only rows with constraint violation, but malformed rows are ignored with warning. I guess that we simply cannot return malformed rows back to the caller in the same way as with constraint violation, since we cannot figure out (in general) which column corresponds to which type if there are extra or missing columns.

+      and same record formatting error is ignored.

I can get it, but it definitely should be reworded.

What about something like this?

+   <varlistentry>
+ <term><literal>ERROR_LIMIT</literal></term>
+    <listitem>
+     <para>
+      Enables ignoring of errored out rows up to <replaceable
+      class="parameter">limit_number</replaceable>. If <replaceable
+      class="parameter">limit_number</replaceable> is set
+      to -1, then all errors will be ignored.
+     </para>
+
+     <para>
+      Currently, only unique or exclusion constraint violation
+      and rows formatting errors are ignored. Malformed
+      rows will rise warnings, while constraint violating rows
+      will be returned back to the caller.
+     </para>
+
+    </listitem>
+   </varlistentry>
