Description: Support round-robin `task_assignment_policy` for queries to reference tables.
This PR allows users to query multiple placements of shards in a round robin fashion. When `citus.task_assignment_policy` is set to `'round-robin'` the planner will use a round robin scheduling feature when multiple shard placements are available.
The primary use-case is spreading the load of reference table queries to all the nodes in the cluster instead of hammering only the first placement of the reference table. Since reference tables share the same path for selecting the shards with single shard queries that have multiple placements (`citus.shard_replication_factor > 1`) this setting also allows users to spread the query load on these shards.
For modifying queries we do not apply a round-robin strategy. This would be negated by an extra reordering step in the executor for such queries where a `first-replica` strategy is enforced.
The file handling the utility functions (DDL) for citus organically grew over time and became unreasonably large. This refactor takes that file and refactored the functionality into separate files per command. Initially modeled after the directory and file layout that can be found in postgres.
Although the size of the change is quite big there are barely any code changes. Only one two functions have been added for readability purposes:
- PostProcessIndexStmt which is extracted from PostProcessUtility
- PostProcessAlterTableStmt which is extracted from multi_ProcessUtility
A README.md has been added to `src/backend/distributed/commands` describing the contents of the module and every file in the module.
We need more documentation around the overloading of the COPY command, for now the boilerplate has been added for people with better knowledge to fill out.
Each PostgreSQL backend starts with a predefined amount of stack and this stack
size can be increased if there is a need. However, stack size increase during
high memory load may cause unexpected crashes, because if there is not enough
memory for stack size increase, there is nothing to do for process apart from
crashing. An interesting thing is; the process would get OOM error instead of
crash, if the process had an explicit memory request (with palloc) for example.
However, in the case of stack size increase, there is no system call to get OOM
error, so the process simply crashes.
With this change, we are increasing the stack size explicitly by requesting extra
memory from the stack, so that, even if there is not memory, we can at least get
an OOM instead of a crash.
In recent postgres builds you cannot set client_min_messages to
values higher then ERROR, if will silently set it to ERROR if so.
During some tests we would set it to fatal to hide random values
(eg. pid's of processes) from the test output. This patch will use
different tactics for hiding these values.
After Fast ALTER TABLE ADD COLUMN with a non-NULL default in PG11, physical heaps might not contain all attributes after a ALTER TABLE ADD COLUMN happens. heap_getattr() returns NULL when the physical tuple doesn't contain an attribute. So we should use heap_deform_tuple() in these cases, which fills in the missing attributes.
Our catalog tables evolve over time, and an upgrade might involve some ALTER TABLE ADD COLUMN commands.
Note that we don't need to worry about postgres catalog tables and we can use heap_getattr() for them, because they only change between major versions.
This also fixes#2453.
PG 11 has change the way that PARAM_EXTERN is processed.
This commit ensures that Citus follows the same pattern.
For details see the related Postgres commit:
6719b238e8
Assign the distributed transaction id before trying to acquire the
executor advisory locks. This is useful to show this backend in citus
lock graphs (e.g., dump_global_wait_edges() and citus_lock_waits).
I'm pretty sure a lot of this test functionality may be covered in some
of our existing regression tests, but I've included them to ensure we
put all failure-based tests under our new testing method for that kind
of test.
Didn't include lower replication factor, as (for a single-shard mod.),
it's indistinguishable from modifying a reference table. So these all
test modifications which hit a single, replicated shard.
We made PG11 builds optional when we had an issue
with mx isolation test that we could not solve back then.
This commit solves the issue with a workaround by running
start_metadata_sync_to_node outside the transaction block.
Both of these are a bit of a shot in the dark. In one case, we noticed
a stack trace where a caller received a null pointer and attempted to
dereference the memory context field (at 0x010). In the other, I saw
that any error thrown from within AdjustParseTree could keep the stack
from being cleaned up (presumably if we push we should always pop).
Both stack traces were collected during times of high memory pressure
and locally reproducing the problem locally or otherwise has been very
tricky (i.e. it hasn't been reproduced reliably at all).
* Keep track of cached entries in case of interruption.
Previously we set DistTableCacheEntry->sortedShardIntervalArray
and DistTableCacheEntry->shardIntervalArrayLength after we entered
all related shard entries into DistShardCacheHash. The drawback was
that if populating DistShardCacheHash was interrupted,
ResetDistTableCacheEntry() didn't see the shard hash entries created,
so was unable to clean them up.
This patch fixes that by setting sortedShardIntervalArray earlier,
and incrementing shardIntervalArrayLength as we enter shards into
the cache.
Fairly straightforward; verified that modifications fail atomically if
a worker is down or fails mid-transaction (i.e. all workers need to ack
modifications to reference tables in order to persist changes).
Including several examples from #1926. I couldn't understand why the
recover_prepared_transactions "should be an error", and EXPLAIN has
changed since the original bug (so that it runs EXPLAINs in txns, I
think for EXPLAIN ANALYZE to not have side effects); other than that,
most of the reported bugs now error out rather than crash or return
an empty result set.
VACUUM runs outside of a transaction, so the failure modes for it are
somewhat straightforward, though ANALYZE runs in a 1pc transaction and
multi-table VACUUM can fail between statements (PG 11 and higher).
Tests various failure points during a multi-shard modification within
a transaction with multiple statements. Verifies three cases:
* Reference tables (single shard, many placements)
* Normal table with replication factor two
* Multi-shard table with no replication
In the replication-factor case, we expect shard health to be affected
in some transactions; most others fail the transaction entirely and
all we need verify is that no effects of the transaction are visible.
Had trouble testing the final PREPARE/COMMIT/ROLLBACK phase of the 2pc,
in particular because the error message produced includes the PID of
the backend, which is unpredictable.
Drop schema command fails in mx mode if there
is a partitioned table with active partitions.
This is due to fact that sql drop trigger receives
all the dropped objects including partitions. When
we call drop table on parent partition, it also drops
the partitions on the mx node. This causes the drop
table command on partitions to fail on mx node because
they are already dropped when the partition parent was
dropped.
With this work we did not require the table to exist on
worker_drop_distributed_table.
PG now allows foreign keys on partitioned tables.
Each foreign key constraint on partitioned table
is propagated down to partitions.
We used to create all constraints on shards when we are creating
a new shard, or when just simply moving a shard from one worker
to another. We also used the same logic when creating a copy of
coordinator table in mx node.
With this change we create the constraint on worker node only if
it is not an inherited constraint.
We used to set the execution mode in the truncate trigger. However,
when multiple tables are truncated with a single command, we could
set the execution mode very late. Instead, now set the execution mode
on the utility hook.
By setting the CPU tuple cost so high, we were triggering JIT. Instead,
we should use parallel_tuple_cost.
See: rhaas.blogspot.com/2018/06/using-forceparallelmode-correctly.html
This reverts commit a2fb5a84f1.
JIT wasn't actually interfering with the operation of Citus, a test was
just written in a way which caused JIT to run for a function on every
row in a 150k-row table.
With this commit, we all partitioned distributed tables with
replication factor > 1. However, we also have many restrictions.
In summary, we disallow all kinds of modifications (including DDLs)
on the partition tables. Instead, the user is allowed to run the
modifications over the parent table.
The necessity for such a restriction have two aspects:
- We need to acquire shard resource locks appropriately
- We need to handle marking partitions INVALID in case
of any failures. Note that, in theory, the parent table
should also become INVALID, which is too aggressive.
We acquire distributed lock on all mx nodes for truncated
tables before actually doing truncate operation.
This is needed for distributed serialization of the truncate
command without causing a deadlock.
Reason for the failure is that PG11 introduced a new relation kind
RELKIND_PARTITIONED_INDEX to be used for partitioned indices.
We expanded our check to cover that case.
This commit uses *_walker instead of *_mutator for performance reasons.
Given that we're only updating a functionId in the tree, the approach
seems fine.
In case a failure happens when a transaction is failed on PREPARE,
we used to hit an assertion for ensuring there is no pending
activity on the connection. However, that's not true after the
changes in #2031. Thus, we've replaced the assertion with a more
generic function call to consume any pending activity, if exists.
In the distributed deadlock detection design, we concluded that prepared transactions
cannot be part of a distributed deadlock. The idea is that (a) when the transaction
is prepared it already acquires all the locks, so cannot be part of a deadlock
(b) even if some other processes blocked on the prepared transaction, prepared transactions
would eventually be committed (or rollbacked) and the system will continue operating.
With the above in mind, we probably had a mistake in terms of memory allocations. For each
backend initialized, we keep a `BackendData` struct. The bug we've introduced is that, we
assumed there would only be `MaxBackend` number of backends. However, `MaxBackends` doesn't
include the prepared transactions and axuliary processes. When you check Postgres' InitProcGlobal`
you'd see that `TotalProcs = MaxBackends + NUM_AUXILIARY_PROCS + max_prepared_xacts;`
This commit aligns with total procs processed with that.
PG11 introduced PROCEDURE concept similar to FUNCTION
Procedure's allow committing/rolling back behavior.
This commmit adds regression tests for procedure calls.
With this commit, we implement two views that are very similar
to pg_stat_activity, but showing queries that are involved in
distributed queries:
- citus_dist_stat_activity: Shows all the distributed queries
- citus_worker_stat_activity: Shows all the queries on the shards
that are initiated by distributed queries.
Both views have the same columns in the outputs. In very basic terms, both of the views
are meant to provide some useful insights about the distributed
transactions within the cluster. As the names reveal, both views are similar to pg_stat_activity.
Also note that these views can be pretty useful on Citus MX clusters.
Note that when the views are queried from the worker nodes, they'd not show the distributed
transactions that are initiated from the coordinator node. The reason is that the worker
nodes do not know the host/port of the coordinator. Thus, it is advisable to query the
views from the coordinator.
If we bucket the columns that the views returns, we'd end up with the following:
- Hostnames and ports:
- query_hostname, query_hostport: The node that the query is running
- master_query_host_name, master_query_host_port: The node in the cluster
initiated the query.
Note that for citus_dist_stat_activity view, the query_hostname-query_hostport
is always the same with master_query_host_name-master_query_host_port. The
distinction is mostly relevant for citus_worker_stat_activity. For example,
on Citus MX, a users starts a transaction on Node-A, which starts worker
transactions on Node-B and Node-C. In that case, the query hostnames would be
Node-B and Node-C whereas the master_query_host_name would Node-A.
- Distributed transaction related things:
This is mostly the process_id, distributed transactionId and distributed transaction
number.
- pg_stat_activity columns:
These two views get all the columns from pg_stat_activity. We're basically joining
pg_stat_activity with get_all_active_transactions on process_id.
This test's output changes depending on which worker is
picked for explain (e.g., worker port in the output changes).
Given that the test is only aiming to ensure that CTEs inside
CTEs work fine in DML queries, it should be fine to get rid of
the EXPLAIN. The output is verified to be correct as well.
We previously implemented OTHER_WORKERS_WITH_METADATA tag. However,
that was wrong. See the related discussion:
https://github.com/citusdata/citus/issues/2320
Instead, we switched using OTHER_WORKER_NODES and make the command
that we're running optional such that even if the node is not a
metadata node, we won't be in trouble.
This commit fixes a bug where a concurrent DROP TABLE deadlocks
with SELECT (or DML) when the SELECT is executed from the workers.
The problem was that Citus used to remove the metadata before
droping the table on the workers. That creates a time window
where the SELECT starts running on some of the nodes and DROP
table on some of the other nodes.
This commit enables support for TRUNCATE on both
distributed table and reference tables.
The basic idea is to acquire lock on the relation by sending
the TRUNCATE command to all metedata worker nodes. We only
skip sending the TRUNCATE command to the node that actually
executus the command to prevent a self-distributed-deadlock.
This commit should be reverted once a new PostgreSQL 11 beta is
available: it's due to a bug in the partitioning code which has been
fixed in REL_11_STABLE but (not yet) a released tag.
Make sure that the coordinator sends the commands when the search
path synchronised with the coordinator's search_path. This is only
important when Citus sends the commands that are directly relayed
to the worker nodes. For example, the deparsed DLL commands or
queries always adds schema qualifications to the queries. So, they
do not require this change.
This commit by default enables hiding shard names on MX workers
by simple replacing `pg_table_is_visible()` calls with
`citus_table_is_visible()` calls on the MX worker nodes. The latter
function filters out tables that are known to be shards.
The main motivation of this change is a better UX. The functionality
can be opted out via a GUC.
We also added two views, namely citus_shards_on_worker and
citus_shard_indexes_on_worker such that users can query
them to see the shards and their corresponding indexes.
We also added debug messages such that the filtered tables can
be interactively seen by setting the level to DEBUG1.
Add ability to understand whether a table is a
known shard on MX workers. Note that this is only useful
and applicable for hiding shards on MX worker nodes given
that we can have metadata only there.
- mitmdump now listens on port 9060
- Add some logging to fluent.py, making issues like this easier to debug in the future
- Fail the tests if something is already running on the port mitmProxy tries to use
- check-failure now works with VPATH builds
This commit adds an extensive failure testing, which covers quite
a bit of things and their combinations:
- 1PC vs 2PC
- Replication factor 1 and Replication factor 2
- Network failures and query cancellations
- Sequential vs Parallel query execution mode
- Lots of detail is in src/test/regress/mitmscripts/README
- Create a new target, make check-failure, which runs tests
- Tells travis how to install everything and run the tests
We can now support more complex count distinct operations by
pulling necessary columns to coordinator and evalutating the
aggreage at coordinator.
It supports broad range of expression with the restriction that
the expression must contain a column.
When a hash distributed table have a foreign key to a reference
table, there are few restrictions we have to apply in order to
prevent distributed deadlocks or reading wrong results.
The necessity to apply the restrictions arise from cascading
nature of foreign keys. When a foreign key on a reference table
cascades to a distributed table, a single operation over a single
connection can acquire locks on multiple shards of the distributed
table. Thus, any parallel operation on that distributed table, in the
same transaction should not open parallel connections to the shards.
Otherwise, we'd either end-up with a self-distributed deadlock or
read wrong results.
As briefly described above, the restrictions that we apply is done
by tracking the distributed/reference relation accesses inside
transaction blocks, and act accordingly when necessary.
The two main rules are as follows:
- Whenever a parallel distributed relation access conflicts
with a consecutive reference relation access, Citus errors
out
- Whenever a reference relation access is followed by a
conflicting parallel relation access, the execution mode
is switched to sequential mode.
There are also some other notes to mention:
- If the user does SET LOCAL citus.multi_shard_modify_mode
TO 'sequential';, all the queries should simply work with
using one connection per worker and sequentially executing
the commands. That's obviously a slower approach than Citus'
usual parallel execution. However, we've at least have a way
to run all commands successfully.
- If an unrelated parallel query executed on any distributed
table, we cannot switch to sequential mode. Because, the essense
of sequential mode is using one connection per worker. However,
in the presence of a parallel connection, the connection manager
picks those connections to execute the commands. That contradicts
with our purpose, thus we error out.
- COPY to a distributed table cannot be executed in sequential mode.
Thus, if we switch to sequential mode and COPY is executed, the
operation fails and there is currently no way of implementing that.
Note that, when the local table is not empty and create_distributed_table
is used, citus uses COPY internally. Thus, in those cases,
create_distributed_table() will also fail.
- There is a GUC called citus.enforce_foreign_key_restrictions
to disable all the checks. We added that GUC since the restrictions
we apply is sometimes a bit more restrictive than its necessary.
The user might want to relax those. Similarly, if you don't have
CASCADEing reference tables, you might consider disabling all the
checks.
-[x] drop constraint
-[x] drop column
-[x] alter column type
-[x] truncate
are sequentialized if there is a foreign constraint from
a distributed table to a reference table on the affected relations
by the above commands.
Make sure that intermediate results use a connection that is
not associated with any placement. That is useful in two ways:
- More complex queries can be executed with CTEs
- Safely use the same connections when there is a foreign key
to reference table from a distributed table, which needs to
use the same connection for modifications since the reference
table might cascade to the distributed table.
This table will be used by Citus Enterprise to populate authentication-
related fields in outbound connections; Citus Community lacks support
for this functionality.
To support more flexible (i.e. not at compile-time) specification of
libpq connection parameters, this change adds a new GUC, node_conninfo,
which must be a space-separated string of key-value pairs suitable for
parsing by libpq's connection establishment methods.
To avoid rebuilding and parsing these values at connection time, this
change also adds a cache in front of the configuration params to permit
immediate use of any previously-calculated parameters.
We're relying on multi_shard_modify_mode GUC for real-time SELECTs.
The name of the GUC is unfortunate, but, adding one more GUC
(or renaming the GUC) would make the UX even worse. Given that this
mode is mostly important for transaction blocks that involve modification
/DDL queries along with real-time SELECTs, we can live with the confusion.
After this commit DDL commands honour `citus.multi_shard_modify_mode`.
We preferred using the code-path that executes single task router
queries (e.g., ExecuteSingleModifyTask()) in order not to invent
a new executor that is only applicable for DDL commands that require
sequential execution.
Errors thrown in the COMMIT handler will cause Postgres to segfault,
there's nothing it can do it abort the transaction by the time that
handler is called!
RemoveIntermediateResultsDirectory is problematic for two reasons:
- It has calls to ereport(ERROR which have been known to trigger
- It makes memory allocations which raise ERRORs when they fail
Once the COMMIT process has begun we don't use the intermediate results,
so it's safe to remove them a little earlier in the process. A failure
here will abort the transaction. That's pretty unnecessary, it's not
that important that we remove the results, but it's still better than a
crash.
Previously we checked if an operator is in pg_catalog, and if it wasn't we prefixed it with namespace in worker queries. This can have a huge impact on performance of physical planner when using custom data types.
This happened regardless of current search_path config, because Citus overrides the search path in get_query_def_extended(). When we do so, the check for existence of the operator in current search path in generate_operator_name() fails for any operators outside pg_catalog. This means that nothing gets cached, and in the following calls we will again recheck the system tables for existence of the operators, which took an additional 40-50ms for some of the usecases we were seeing.
In this change we skip the pg_catalog check, and always prefix the operator with its namespace.
* Change worker_hash_partition_table() such that the
divergence between Citus planner's hashing and
worker_hash_partition_table() becomes the same.
* Rename single partitioning to single range partitioning.
* Add single hash repartitioning. Basically, logical planner
treats single hash and range partitioning almost equally.
Physical planner, on the other hand, treats single hash and
dual hash repartitioning almost equally (except for JoinPruning).
* Add a new GUC to enable this feature
utilityStmt sometimes (such as when it's inside of a plpgsql function)
comes from a cached plan, which is kept in a child of the
CacheMemoryContext. When we naively call copyObject we're copying it into
a statement-local context, which corrupts the cached plan when it's
thrown away.
This commit doesn't change any of the logic at all.
Instead, the goal is to:
* Get rid of any code duplication
* Incremental changes to the optimizer made it slightly hard
to follow the code, improve that and make it easier to
implement new features
* Simplify the code by moving each part of query processing (e.g.,
DISTINCT, LIMIT etc) into its own function
* Make the interaction between each part of the query more
obvious (e.g., How DISTINCT affects LIMIT etc)
In case a failure happens when a transaction is rollbacked,
we used to hit an assertion for ensuring there is no pending
activity on the connection. However, that's not true after the
changes in #2031. Thus, we've replaced the assertion with a more
generic function call to consume any pending activity, if exists.

Before this commit, we had code duplication in the
WorkerExtendedOpNode(). The duplication was
noticeable and any change is prone to bugs.
The PR consists of 4 commits. Each commit incrementally
fixes the problem by moving certain parts of the duplicated
code into smaller, better-documented functions.
Before this commit, we had a divergence among
the creation of master/worker extended op nodes.
This commit moves the related parts into a single place
and allows the creation of master/extended op nodes to
share a common data structure.
PostgreSQL might remove some of the subqueries when they do not
contribute to the query result at all. Citus should not try to
access such subqueries during planning.
Without this change we crash on Windows with COPYing into a table with
62 shards, and we ERROR when COPYing into a table with >62 shards:
ERROR: WaitForMutipleObjects() failed: error code 87
Without this change multi_real_time_transaction blocks forever (on
Windows) in the block where it repeatedly calls pg_advisory_lock(15).
This happens because the deadlock detector tries to cancel the backend
but the backend never processes that signal.
This PR adds support for multiple AND expressions in Having
for pushdown planner. We simply make a call to make_ands_explicit
from MultiLogicalPlanOptimize for the having qual in
workerExtendedOpNode.
After this commit large_table_shard_count wont be used to
check whether broadcast join, which is renamed as reference
join, can be applied. Reference join can only be applied over
reference tables.
We recently added partitionin support to Citus MX. We should not execute
DROP table commands from MX workers but at the moment we try to execute
such commands for partitioned tables. This PR fixes that problem by
adding check.
Previously, we prevented creation of partitioned tables on Citus MX.
We decided to not focus on this feature until there is a need. Since
now there are requests for this feature, we are implementing support
for partitioned tables on Citus MX.
After this change all the logic related to shard data fetch logic
will be removed. Planner won't plan any ShardFetchTask anymore.
Shard fetch related steps in real time executor and task-tracker
executor have been removed.
- Force all platforms to use the same collation

- force utf-8 encoding
- the Windows shell uses different quoting and escape rules
Pushing down limit and order by into workers may produce
wrong output when distinct on() clause has expressions,
aggregates, or window functions.
This checking allows pushing down of limits only if
distinct clause is a superset of group by clause. i.e. it contains all clauses in group by.
This commit checks the connection status right after any IO happens
on the socket.
This is necessary since before this commit we didn't pass any information
to the higher level functions whether we're done with the connection
(e.g., no IO required anymore) or an errors happened during the IO.
This is the first of series of window function work.
We can now support window functions that can be pushed down to workers.
Window function must have distribution column in the partition clause
to be pushed down.
We push down order by to worker query when limit is specified
(with some other additional checks). If the query has an expression
on an aggregate or avg aggregate by itself, and there is an order
by on this particular target we may send wrong order by to worker
query with potential to affect query result.
The fix creates a auxilary target entry in the worker query and
uses that target entry for sorting.
Before this PR, we were trusting on the columns of group by about
guaranteeing the uniqueness of the results. However, this assumption
is correct only if the columns in the group by is subset of columns
in the distinct clause. It can be wrong if we have part of group by
columns and some aggregation columns in the distinct clause. With
this PR, we add distinct plan on top of aggregate plan when necessary.
With #1804 (and related PRs), Citus gained the ability to
plan subqueries that are not safe to pushdown.
There are two high-level requirements for pushing down subqueries:
* Individual subqueries that require a merge step (i.e., GROUP BY
on non-distribution key, or LIMIT in the subquery etc). We've
handled such subqueries via #1876.
* Combination of subqueries that are not joined on distribution keys.
This commit aims to recursively plan some of such subqueries to make
the whole query safe to pushdown.
The main logic behind non colocated subquery joins is that we pick
an anchor range table entry and check for distribution key equality
of any other subqueries in the given query. If for a given subquery,
we cannot find distribution key equality with the anchor rte, we
recursively plan that subquery.
We also used a hacky solution for picking relations as the anchor range
table entries. The hack is that we wrap them into a subquery. This is only
necessary since some of the attribute equivalance checks are based on
queries rather than range table entries.
We used to only support pushdownable set operations inside a
subquery, however, we could easily expand the restriction
checks to cover top level set operations as well.
We use PostgreSQL hooks to accumulate the join restrictions
and PostgreSQL gives us all the join paths it tries while
deciding on the join order. Thus, for queries that have many
joins, this function is likely to remove lots of duplicate join
restrictions. This becomes relevant for Citus on query pushdown
check peformance.
We were allowing count distict queries even if they were
not directly on columns if the query is grouped on
distribution column.
When performing these checks we were skipping subqueries
because they also perform this check in a more concise manner.
We relied on oid SUBQUERY_RELATION_ID (10000) to decide if
a given RTE relation id denotes a subquery, however, we also
use SUBQUERY_PUSHDOWN_RELATION_ID (10001) for some subqueries.
We skip both type of subqueries with this change.
VLAs aren't supported by Visual Studio.
- Remove all existing instances of VLAs.
- Add a flag, -Werror=vla, which makes gcc refuse to compile if we add
VLAs in the future.
- variable length arrays (VLAs) do not work with Visual Studio
- fix an off-by-one error. We incorrectly assumed there would always at
least as many edges as there were nodes.
- refactor: reduce scope of transactionNodeStack by moving it into the
function which uses it.
- refactor: break up the distinct uses of currentStackDepth into
separate variables.
It's against our coding convention to call functions inside parameter
lists; when single-stepping with a debugger it's difficult to determine
what the function returned.
That wouldn't be good enough reason to change this code but while
porting Citus to Windows I ran into this line of code.
assign_distributed_transaction_id was called with a weird timestamp and
I wasn't able to find the problem without first making this change.
* Don't use expressions inside compound statements
* Don't depend on __builtin_constant_p
* Remove reliance on S_ISLNK
* Replace use of __func__: older mcvs doesn't support this builtin
With this fix, we traverse the graph with DFS which was originally
intended. Note that, before the fix, we traverse the graph with BFS
which might lead to killing some unrelated backend that is not
involved in the distributed deadlock.
By sharing the implementation of the function AppendOptionListToString on
three call sites, we would expand an extra OPTIONS keyword in a create index
statement, and omit other bits of the specific syntax here.
This patch introduces an AppendStorageParametersToString() function that is
very similar to AppendOptionListToString() but handles WITH(a="foo",...)
syntax that is used in reloptions (aka Storage Parameters).
Fixes#1747.
PostgreSQL implements support for several relation kinds in a single
statement, such as in the AlterTableStmt case, which supports both tables
and indexes and more (see ATExecSetRelOptions in PostgreSQL source code file
src/backend/commands/tablecmds.c for an example of that).
As a consequence, this patch implements support for setting and resetting
storage parameters on both relation kinds.
The command is now distributed among the shards when the table is
distributed. To that effect, we fill in the DDLJob's targetRelationId with
the OID of the table for which the index is defined, rather than the OID of
the index itself.
Citus sometimes have regressions around non-default schema support, meaning
not public and not in the search_path, per @marcocitus. This patch changes
some regression tests to use a non-default schema in order to cover more
cases.
The implementation was already mostly in place, but the code was protected
by a principled check against the operation. Turns out there's a nasty
concurrency bug though with long identifier names, much as in #1664.
To prevent deadlocks from happening, we could either review the DDL
transaction management in shards and placements, or we can simply reject
names with (NAMEDATALEN - 1) chars or more — that's because of the
PostgreSQL array types being created with a one-char prefix: '_'.
We shouldn't return in middle of a PG_TRY() block because if we do, we won't reset PG_exception_stack, and later when a re-throw tries to jump to the jump-point which was active in this PG_TRY() block, it seg-faults.
We used to return in middle of PG_TRY() block in WaitForConnections() where we checked for cancellations. Whenever cancellations were caught here, Citus crashed. And example was reported by @onderkalaci at #1903.
clause is not supported
This change allows unsupported clauses to go through query pushdown
planner instead of erroring out as we already do for non-outer joins.
We used to error out if the join clause includes filters like
t1.a < t2.a even if other filter like t1.key = t2.key exists.
Recently we lifted that restriction in subquery planning by
not lifting that restriction and focusing on equivalance classes
provided by postgres.
This checkin forwards previously erroring out real-time queries
due to join clauses to subquery planner and let it handle the
join even if the query does not have a subquery.
We are now pushing down queries that do not have any
subqueries in it. Error message looked misleading, changed to a more descriptive one.
We were creating intermediate query result's target
names from subquery target list. Now we also check
if cte re-defines its column name aliases, and create
intermediate result query accordingly.
The macro we were using to detect strtoull isn't set on Windows, and
just in case there are differences use a portable function from PG
instead of calling strtoull directly.
This commit introduces a new GUC to limit the intermediate
result size which we handle when we use read_intermediate_result
function for CTEs and complex subqueries.
With this commit, Citus recursively plans subqueries that
are not safe to pushdown, in other words, requires a merge
step.
The algorithm is simple: Recursively traverse the query from bottom
up (i.e., bottom meaning the leaf queries). On each level, check
whether the query is safe to pushdown (or a single repartition
subquery). If the answer is yes, do not touch that subquery. If the
answer is no, plan the subquery seperately (i.e., create a subPlan
for it) and replace the subquery with a call to
`read_intermediate_results(planId, subPlanId)`. During the the
execution, run the subPlans first, and make them avaliable to the
next query executions.
Some of the queries hat this change allows us:
* Subqueries with LIMIT
* Subqueries with GROUP BY/DISTINCT on non-partition keys
* Subqueries involving re-partition joins, router queries
* Mixed usage of subqueries and CTEs (i.e., use CTEs in
subqueries as well). Nested subqueries as long as we
support the subquery inside the nested subquery.
* Subqueries with local tables (i.e., those subqueries
has the limitation that they have to be leaf subqueries)
* VIEWs on the distributed tables just works (i.e., the
limitations mentioned below still applies to views)
Some of the queries that is still NOT supported:
* Corrolated subqueries that are not safe to pushdown
* Window function on non-partition keys
* Recursively planned subqueries or CTEs on the outer
side of an outer join
* Only recursively planned subqueries and CTEs in the FROM
(i.e., not any distributed tables in the FROM) and subqueries
in WHERE clause
* Subquery joins that are not on the partition columns (i.e., each
subquery is individually joined on partition keys but not the upper
level subquery.)
* Any limitation that logical planner applies such as aggregate
distincts (except for count) when GROUP BY is on non-partition key,
or array_agg with ORDER BY
Postgres provides OS agnosting formatting macros for
formatting 64 bit numbers. Replaced %ld %lu with
INT64_FORMAT and UINT64_FORMAT respectively.
Also found some incorrect usages of formatting
flags and fixed them.
We added the ability to filter out the planner restriction information
for specific parts of the query. This might lead to situations where
the common restriction includes some other relations that we're searching
for. The reason is that while filtering for join restrictions, we add the
restriction as soon as we find the relation.
With this commit we make sure that the common attribute
equivalance class always includes the input relations.
In subquery pushdown, we first ensure that each relation is joined with at least
on another relation on the partition keys. That's fine given that the decision
is binary: pushdown the query at all or not.
With recursive planning, we'd want to check whether any specific part
of the query can be pushded down or not. Thus, we need the ability to
understand which part(s) of the subquery is safe to pushdown. This commit
adds the infrastructure for doing that.
Note that we used to iterate over the RTEs once for performance reasons.
However, keeping an extra copy of original query seems more costly and
hard to maintain/explain.
Subquery pushdown planning is based on relation restriction
equivalnce. This brings us the opportuneatly to allow any
other joins as long as there is an already equi join between
the distributed tables.
We already allow that for joins with reference tables and
this commit allows that for joins among distributed tables.
With this commit, we allow pushing down subqueries with only
reference tables where GROUP BY or DISTINCT clause or Window
functions include only columns from reference tables.
Store pointers to shared hashes in process-local variables. Previously
pointers to shared hashes were put into shared memory. This causes
problems on EXEC_BACKEND because everybody calls execve and receives a
brand new address space; the shared hash will be in a different place
for every backend. (normally we call fork, which gives you a copy of the
address space, so these pointers remain constant)
Autovacuum process cancels itself if any modification starts
on the table in order to avoid blocking your regular Postgres
sessions. That's normal and expected. Thus, any locks held by
autovacuum process cannot involve in a distributed deadlock
since it'll be released if needed.
These locks are held for a very short duration time and cannot
contribute to a deadlock. Speculative locks are used by Postgres
for internal notification mechanism among transactions.
While attaching a partition to a distributed table in schema, we mistakenly
used unqualified name to find partitioned table's oid. This caused problems
while using partitioned tables with schemas. We are fixing this issue in
this PR.
Short-term share/exclusive page-level locks are used for
read/write access. Locks are released immediately after
each index row is fetched or inserted.
Since those locks may not lead to any deadlocks, it's safe
to ignore them in the distributed deadlock detection.
In DistributedTablesSize() we didn't close the relations that had
replication factor > 2. This caused relcache reference leaks, and
warning messages like following in logs:
WARNING: relcache reference leak: relation "researchers" not closed
It's possible to build INSERT SELECT queries which include implicit
casts, currently we attempt to support these by adding explicit casts to
the SELECT query, but this sometimes crashes because we don't update all
nodes with the new types. (SortClauses, for instance)
This commit removes those explicit casts and passes an unmodified SELECT
query to the COPY executor (how we implement INSERT SELECT under the
scenes). In lieu of those cases, COPY has been given some extra logic to
inspect queries, notice that the types don't line up with the table it's
supposed to be inserting into, and "manually" casting every tuple before
sending them to workers.
ShardPlacementList's implementation can return NIL. In previous implementation
we got a segmentation fault in this case. The relation can be dropped after
getting distributed table list but before calling SingleReplicatedTable().
If we don't propagate the errors we are catching in PG_CATCH(), database's
internal state might not be clean. So we do PG_TRY() inside a subtransaction
so we can rollback to it after catching errors.
This patch adds --with-reports-host configure option, which sets the
REPORTS_BASE_URL constant. The default is reports.citusdata.com.
It also enables stats collection in tests.
Curl writes the received response to stdout if we don't specify a response
callback or an output file. This can pollute the PostgreSQL log. In this change
we add a callback function so the response messages aren't added to the log file.
Sends a request to /v1/releases/latest?flavor=$CITUS_EDITION once a day,
which returns a response similar to {"version": "7.1.0", "major": 7,
"minor": 1, "patch": 0}. Then compares it with current Citus version,
and if the latest release is newer, logs a LOG message.
This includes:
(1) Wrap everything inside a StartTransactionCommand()/CommitTransactionCommand().
This is so we can access the database. This also switches to a new memory context
and releases it, so we don't have to do our own memory management.
(2) LockCitusExtension() so the extension cannot be dropped or created concurrently.
(3) Check CitusHasBeenLoaded() && CheckCitusVersion() before doing any work.
(4) Do not PG_TRY() inside a loop.
This commit makes a change in relay_event_utility.c to check if the
Alter Table command adds a constraint using index. If this is the
case, it appends the shard id to the index name.
By this commit, citus minds the replica identity of the table when
we distribute the table. So the shards of the distributed table
have the same replica identity with the local table.
Expands count distinct coverage by allowing more cases. We used to support
count distinct only if we can push down distinct aggregate to worker query
i.e. the count distinct clause was on the partition column of the table,
or there was a grouping on the partition column.
Now we can support
- non-partition columns, with or without grouping on partition column
- partition, and non partition column in the same query
- having clause
- single table subqueries
- insert into select queries
- join queries where count distinct is on partition, or non-partition column
- filters on count distinct clauses (extends existing support)
We first try to push down aggregate to worker query (original case), if we
can't then we modify worker query to return distinct columns to coordinator
node. We do that by adding distinct column targets to group by clauses. Then
we perform count distinct operation on the coordinator node.
This work should reduce the cases where HLL is used as it can address anything
that HLL can. However, if we start having performance issues due to very large
number rows, then we can recommend hll use.
This change introduces the `pg_dist_node_metadata` which has a single jsonb value. When creating
the extension, a random server id is generated and stored in there. Everything in the metadata table
is added as a nested objected to the json payload that is sent to the reports server.
The following scenario can cause an Assert() crash if we don't do this:
- Install Citus v7.0-15
- Restart server & run a query to start maintenanced.
- Install Citus v7.1
- Restart server & run a query. This will tell user to upgrade.
- Type "UPDATE EXTENSION c" & press tab. maintenanced will start and crash
with Assert(CitusHasBeenLoaded() && CheckCitusVersion(WARNING));
This change checks Citus version before calling metadata functions so the
crash doesn't happen.
This will provide the full project name (i.e. Citus/Citus Enterprise),
and the host system, compiler, and architecture word size.
I wanted to limit the number of copied files in 'config', so I added
only config.guess and call it manually, rather than using the macro
AC_CANONICAL_HOST, which requires several other files.
Eclipse apparently doesn't scan build output looking for -D flags, so
having the value actually appear in a header is nicer for those of us
using IDEs.
Previously <curl/curl.h> was included even if compiled --without-libcurl.
This can fail when libcurl headers are not there. This commit guards this
include by checks for HAVE_LIBCURL.
Adds ```citus.enable_statistics_collection``` GUC variable, which ```true``` by default, unless built without libcurl. If statistics collection is enabled, sends basic usage data to Citus servers every 24 hours.
The data that is collected consists of:
- Citus version
- OS name & release
- Hardware Id
- Number of tables, rounded to next power of 2
- Size of data, rounded to next power of 2
- Number of workers
This commit provides the support for window functions in subquery and insert
into select queries. Note that our support for window functions is still limited
because it must have a partition by clause on the distribution key. This commit
makes changes in the files insert_select_planner and multi_logical_planner. The
required tests are also added with files multi_subquery_window_functions.out
and multi_insert_select_window.out.
We should skip if the process blocked on the relation
extension since those locks are hold for a short duration
while the relation is actually extended on the disk and
released as soon as the extension is done. Thus, recording
such waits on our lock graphs could yield detecting wrong
distributed deadlocks.
We sent multiple commands to worker when starting a transaction.
Previously we only checked the result of the first command that
is transaction 'BEGIN' which always succeeds. Any failure on
following commands were not checked.
With this commit, we make sure all command results are checked.
If there is any error we report the first error found.
Basically we just care whether the running version is before or after
PostgreSQL 10, so testing the major version against 9 and printing a
boolean is sufficient.
When a table and it's shards are dropped, and afterwards the same
shard identifiers are reused, e.g. due to a DROP & CREATE EXTENSION,
the old entry in the shard cache and the required entry in the shard
cache might be for different tables.
Force invalidation for both old and new table to fix.
Citus can handle INSERT INTO ... SELECT queries if the query inserts
into local table by reading data from distributed table. The opposite
way is not correct. With this commit we warn the user if the latter
option is used.
When a NULL connection is provided to PQerrorMessage(), the
returned error message is a static text. Modifying that static
text, which doesn't necessarly be in a writeable memory, is
dangreous and might cause a segfault.
With this commit, we relax the restrictions put on the reference
tables with subquery pushdown.
We did three notable improvements:
1) Relax equi-join restrictions
Previously, we always expected that the non-reference tables are
equi joined with reference tables on the partition key of the
non-reference table.
With this commit, we allow any column of non-reference tables
joined using non-equi joins as well.
2) Relax OUTER JOIN restrictions
Previously Citus errored out if any reference table exists at
any point of the outer part of an outer join. For instance,
See the below sketch where (h) denotes a hash distributed relation,
(r) denotes a reference table, (L) denotes LEFT JOIN and
(I) denotes INNER JOIN.
(L)
/ \
(I) h
/ \
r h
Before this commit Citus would error out since a reference table
appears on the left most part of an left join. However, that was
too restrictive so that we only error out if the reference table
is directly below and in the outer part of an outer join.
3) Bug fixes
We've done some minor bugfixes in the existing implementation.
With this PR we add isolation tests for
COPY to reference table vs. other operations
COPY to partitioned table vs. other operations
Multi row INSERTs vs other operations
INSERT/SELECT vs. other operations
UPSERT vs. other operations
DELETE vs. other operations
TRUNCATE vs. other operations
DROP vs. other operations
DDL vs. other operations
other operations consist of basic SQL operations (like SELECT,
INSERT, DELETE, UPSERT, COPY TRUNCATE, CREATE INDEX) as well
as some Citus functionalities (like master_modify_multiple_shards,
master_apply_delete_command, citus_total_relation_size etc.)
If after the distributed deadlock detection decides to cancel
a backend, the backend has been terminated/killed/cancelled
externally, we might be accessing to a NULL pointer. This commit
prevents that case by ignoring the current distributed deadlock.
This is necessary for multi-row INSERTs for the same reasons we use it
in e.g. UPSERTs: if the range table list has more than one entry, then
PostgreSQL's deparse logic requires that vars be prefixed by the name
of their corresponding range table entry. This of course doesn't affect
single-row INSERTs, but since multi-row INSERTs have a VALUE RTE, they
were affected.
The piece of ruleutils which builds range table names wasn't modified
to handle shard extension; instead UPSERT/INSERT INTO ... SELECT added
an alias to the RTE. When present, this alias is favored. Doing the
same in the multi-row INSERT case fixes RETURNING for such commands.
This change adds support for SAVEPOINT, ROLLBACK TO SAVEPOINT, and RELEASE SAVEPOINT.
When transaction connections are not established yet, savepoints are kept in a stack and sent to the worker when the connection is later established. After establishing connections, savepoint commands are sent as they arrive.
This change fixes#1493 .
We should prevent running the deadlock detection if
there is a major version change. Otherwise, the daemon
may access to obsolete metadata catalog tables.
This change fixes a use-after-free bug while renaming obsolete
`pg_worker_list.conf` file, which causes Citus to crash during upgrade
(or even extension creation) if `pg_worker_list.conf` exists.
We added a new field to the transaction id that is set to true only
for the transactions initialized on the coordinator. This is only
useful for MX in order to distinguish the transaction that started
the distributed transaction on the coordinator where we could
have the same transactions' worker queries on the same node.
We added a new GUC citus.log_distributed_deadlock_detection
which is off by default. When set to on, we log some debug messages
related to the distributed deadlock to the server logs.
With this commit, the maintenance deamon starts to check for
distributed deadlocks.
We also introduced a GUC variable (distributed_deadlock_detection_factor)
whose value is multiplied with Postgres' deadlock_timeout. Setting
it to -1 disables the distributed deadlock detection.
We send SIGINT to a backend that is cancelled due to a deadlock. That
approach ends up being a very confusing error message.
With this commit we intercept the error messages and show a more
meaningful error message to the user.
Now that we already have the necessary infrastructure for detecting
distributed deadlocks. Thus, we don't need enable_deadlock_prevention
which is purely intended for preventing some forms of distributed
deadlocks.
This commit adds all the necessary pieces to do the distributed
deadlock detection.
Each distributed transaction is already assigned with distributed
transaction ids introduced with
3369f3486f. The dependency among the
distributed transactions are gathered with
80ea233ec1.
With this commit, we implement a DFS (depth first seach) on the
dependency graph and search for cycles. Finding a cycle reveals
a distributed deadlock.
Once we find the deadlock, we examine the path that the cycle exists
and cancel the youngest distributed transaction.
Note that, we're not yet enabling the deadlock detection by default
with this commit.
This GUC has two settings, 'always' and 'never'. When it's set to
'never' all behavior stays exactly as it was prior to this commit. When
it's set to 'always' only SELECT queries are allowed to run, and only
secondary nodes are used when processing those queries.
Add some helper functions:
- WorkerNodeIsSecondary(), checks the noderole of the worker node
- WorkerNodeIsReadable(), returns whether we're currently allowed to
read from this node
- ActiveReadableNodeList(), some functions (namely, the ones on the
SELECT path) don't require working with Primary Nodes. They should call
this function instead of ActivePrimaryNodeList(), because the latter
will error out in contexts where we're not allowed to write to nodes.
- ActiveReadableNodeCount(), like the above, replaces
ActivePrimaryNodeCount().
- EnsureModificationsCanRun(), error out if we're not currently allowed
to run queries which modify data. (Either we're in read-only mode or
use_secondary_nodes is set)
Some parts of the code were switched over to use readable nodes instead
of primary nodes:
- Deadlock detection
- DistributedTableSize,
- the router, real-time, and task tracker executors
- ShardPlacement resolution
This change declares two new functions:
`master_update_table_statistics` updates the statistics of shards belong
to the given table as well as its colocated tables.
`get_colocated_shard_array` returns the ids of colocated shards of a
given shard.
This is a pretty substantial refactoring of the existing modify path
within the router executor and planner. In particular, we now hunt for
all VALUES range table entries in INSERT statements and group the rows
contained therein by shard identifier. These rows are stashed away for
later in "ModifyRoute" elements. During deparse, the appropriate RTE
is extracted from the Query and its values list is replaced by these
rows before any SQL is generated.
In this way, we can create multiple Tasks, but only one per shard, to
piecemeal execute a multi-row INSERT. The execution of jobs containing
such tasks now exclusively go through the "multi-router executor" which
was previously used for e.g. INSERT INTO ... SELECT.
By piggybacking onto that executor, we participate in ongoing trans-
actions, get rollback-ability, etc. In short order, the only remaining
use of the "single modify" router executor will be for bare single-
row INSERT statements (i.e. those not in a transaction).
This change appropriately handles deferred pruning as well as master-
evaluated functions.
We use the backend shared memory lock for preventing
new backends to be part of a new distributed transaction
or an existing backend to leave a distributed transaction
while we're reading the all backends' data.
The primary goal is to provide consistent view of the
current distributed transactions while doing the
deadlock detection.
For partitioned tables, PostgreSQL opens partition and its partitions
in BeginCopyFrom and it expects its caller to close those relations.
However, we do not have quick access to opened relations and performing
special operations for partitioned tables isn't necessary in coordinator
node. Therefore before calling BeginCopyFrom, we change relkind of those
partitioned tables to RELKIND_RELATION. This prevents PostgreSQL to open
its partitions as well.
In standart_planner, PostgreSQL expands partitioned tables to their
partitions and call our restriction hook for each partition. It also,
for some queries, skips the partitioned table itself completely. This
behaviour makes it difficult to prune shards and decide whether query
is router plannable or not. To prevent this behaviour, we change inh
flag of partitioned tables to false in the query tree. In this case,
PostgreSQL treats those partitioned tables as regular relations and
does not expand them.
This behaviour is inline with our expectations, because we do not want
to treat partitioned tables differently on coordinator. Although we are
not entirely comfortable with modifying query tree, other solutions to
this problem is overly complicated.
With this PR, Citus starts to support all possible ways to create
distributed partitioned tables. These are;
- Distributing already created partitioning hierarchy
- CREATE TABLE ... PARTITION OF a distributed_table
- ALTER TABLE distributed_table ATTACH PARTITION non_distributed_table
- ALTER TABLE distributed_table ATTACH PARTITION distributed_table
We also support DETACHing partitions from partitioned tables and propogating
TRUNCATE and DDL commands to distributed partitioned tables.
This PR also refactors some parts of distributed table creation logic.
- master_activate_node and master_disable_node correctly toggle
isActive, without crashing
- master_add_node rejects duplicate nodes, even if they're in different
clusters
- master_remove_node allows removing nodes in different clusters
This change removes distributed tables' dependency on distribution key columns. We already check that we cannot drop distribution key columns in ErrorIfUnsupportedAlterTableStmt() at multi_utility.c, so we don't need to have distributed table to distribution key column dependency to avoid dropping of distribution key column.
Furthermore, having this dependency causes some warnings in pg_dump --schema-only (See #866), which are not desirable.
This change also adds check to disallow drop of distribution keys when citus.enable_ddl_propagation is set to false. Regression tests are updated accordingly.
We try to run our isolation tests paralles as much as possible. In
some of those isolation tests we used same table name which causes
problem while running them in paralles. This commit changes table
names in those tests to ensure tests can run in parallel.
This commit is preperation for introducing distributed partitioned
table support. We want to clean and refactor some code in distributed
table creation logic so that we can handle partitioned tables in more
robust way.
maxTaskStringSize determines the size of worker query string.
It was originally hard coded to a specific value. This has caused
issues at some users. Since it determines initial shared memory
allocation, we did not want to set it to an arbitrary higher number.
Instead made it configurable.
This commit introduces a new GUC variable max_task_string_size
Changes in this variable requires restart to be in effect.
In this commit, we add ability to convert global wait edges
into adjacency list with the following format:
[transactionId] = [transactionNode->waitsFor {list of waiting transaction nodes}]
This change adds a general purpose infrastructure to log and monitor
process about long running progresses. It uses
`pg_stat_get_progress_info` infrastructure, introduced with PostgreSQL
9.6 and used for tracking `VACUUM` commands.
This patch only handles the creation of a memory space in dynamic shared
memory, putting its info in `pg_stat_get_progress_info`, fetching the
progress monitors on demand and finalizing the progress tracking.
- Never release locks
- AddNodeMetadata takes ShareRowExclusiveLock so it'll conflict with the
trigger which prevents multiple primary nodes.
- ActivateNode and SetNodeState used to take AccessShareLock, but they
modify the table so they should take RowExclusiveLock.
- DeleteNodeRow and InsertNodeRow used to take AccessExclusiveLock but
only need RowExclusiveLock.
- master_add_node enforces that there is only one primary per group
- there's also a trigger on pg_dist_node to prevent multiple primaries
per group
- functions in metadata cache only return primary nodes
- Rename ActiveWorkerNodeList -> ActivePrimaryNodeList
- Rename WorkerGetLive{Node->Group}Count()
- Refactor WorkerGetRandomCandidateNode
- master_remove_node only complains about active shard placements if the
node being removed is a primary.
- master_remove_node only deletes all reference table placements in the
group if the node being removed is the primary.
- Rename {Node->NodeGroup}HasShardPlacements, this reflects the behavior it
already had.
- Rename DeleteAllReferenceTablePlacementsFrom{Node->NodeGroup}. This also
reflects the behavior it already had, but the new signature forces the
caller to pass in a groupId
- Rename {WorkerGetLiveGroup->ActivePrimaryNode}Count
GCC 7 added `-Wimplicit-fallthrough` to warn for not explicitly specified switch/case fall-throughs.
According to https://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-7/changes.html, to suppress that warning we could either use `__attribute__(fallthrough)`, which didn't seem to work for earlier GCC versions, or a `/* fallthrough */` comment just before the following `case`.
Previously Citus code had the fall-through comments inside the brackets, which didn't seem to suppress the warning. Putting a `/* fallthrough */` comment outside the brackets and right before the `case` fixes the problem.
This commit adds distributed transaction id infrastructure in
the scope of distributed deadlock detection.
In general, the distributed transaction id consists of a tuple
in the form of: `(databaseId, initiatorNodeIdentifier, transactionId,
timestamp)`.
Briefly, we add a shared memory block on each node, which holds some
information per backend (i.e., an array `BackendData backends[MaxBackends]`).
Later, on each coordinated transaction, Citus sends
`SELECT assign_distributed_transaction_id()` right after `BEGIN`.
For that backend on the worker, the distributed transaction id is set to
the values assigned via the function call.
The aim of the above is to correlate the transactions on the coordinator
to the transactions on the worker nodes.
Comes with a few changes:
- Change the signature of some functions to accept groupid
- InsertShardPlacementRow
- DeleteShardPlacementRow
- UpdateShardPlacementState
- NodeHasActiveShardPlacements returns true if the group the node is a
part of has any active shard placements
- TupleToShardPlacement now returns ShardPlacements which have NULL
nodeName and nodePort.
- Populate (nodeName, nodePort) when creating ShardPlacements
- Disallow removing a node if it contains any shard placements
- DeleteAllReferenceTablePlacementsFromNode matches based on group. This
doesn't change behavior for now (while there is only one node per
group), but means in the future callers should be careful about
calling it on a secondary node, it'll delete placements on the primary.
- Create concept of a GroupShardPlacement, which represents an actual
tuple in pg_dist_placement and is distinct from a ShardPlacement,
which has been resolved to a specific node. In the future
ShardPlacement should be renamed to NodeShardPlacement.
- Create some triggers which allow existing code to continue to insert
into and update pg_dist_shard_placement as if it still existed.
These functions are holdovers from pg_shard and were created for unit
testing c-level functions (like InsertShardPlacementRow) which our
regression tests already test quite effectively. Removing because it
makes refactoring the signatures of those c-level functions
unnecessarily difficult.
- create_healthy_local_shard_placement_row
- update_shard_placement_row_state
- delete_shard_placement_row
Uncrustify 0.65 appears to have changed some defaults, resulting in
breakages for those of us who have already upgraded; Travis still uses
Uncrustify 0.64, but these changes work with both versions (assuming
appropriately updated config), so this should permit use of either
version for the time being.
Before this change, we used ShareLock to acquire lock on distributed tables while
running VACUUM. This makes VACUUM and INSERT block each other. With this change we
changed lock mode from ShareLock to ShareUpdateExclusiveLock, which does not conflict
with the locks INSERT acquire.
MasterIrreducibleExpressionWalker has a copied code from
function check_functions_in_node() which was available with
PG 9.6+. Now PG 9.5 support is dropped we can remove
duplicate code and directly call check_functions_in_node().
Previously we used ForgetResults() in StartRemoteTransactionAbort() -
that's problematic because there might still be an ongoing statement,
and this causes us to wait for its completion. That e.g. happens when
a statement running on the coordinator is cancelled.
That's important because the currently running statement on a worker
might continue to hold locks and consume resources, even after the
connection is closed. Unfortunately postgres will only notice closed
connections when reading from / writing to the network. That might
only happen much later.
Now that there's no blocking libpq callers left, default to using
non-blocking mode in connection_management.c. This has two
advantages:
1) Blockiness doesn't have to frequently be reset, simplifying code
2) Prevents accidental use of blocking libpq functions, since they'll
frequently return 'need IO'
This commit is intended to be a base for supporting declarative partitioning
on distributed tables. Here we add the following utility functions and their
unit tests:
* Very basic functions including differnentiating partitioned tables and
partitions, listing the partitions
* Generating the PARTITION BY (expr) and adding this to the DDL events
of partitioned tables
* Ability to generate text representations of the ranges for partitions
* Ability to generate the `ALTER TABLE parent_table ATTACH PARTITION
partition_table FOR VALUES value_range`
* Ability to apply add shard ids to the above command using

* Ability to generate `ALTER TABLE parent_table DETACH PARTITION`
Adds support for PostgreSQL 10 by copying in the requisite ruleutils
and updating all API usages to conform with changes in PostgreSQL 10.
Most changes are fairly minor but they are numerous. One particular
obstacle was the change in \d behavior in PostgreSQL 10's psql; I had
to add SQL implementations (views, mostly) to mimic the pre-10 output.
Add a second implementation of INSERT INTO distributed_table SELECT ... that is used if
the query cannot be pushed down. The basic idea is to execute the SELECT query separately
and pass the results into the distributed table using a CopyDestReceiver, which is also
used for COPY and create_distributed_table. When planning the SELECT, we go through
planner hooks again, which means the SELECT can also be a distributed query.
EXPLAIN is supported, but EXPLAIN ANALYZE is not because preventing double execution was
a lot more complicated in this case.
- Use native postgres function for composite key btree functions
- Move explain tests to multi_explain.sql (get rid of .out _0.out files)
- Get rid of input/output files for multi_subquery.sql by moving table creations
- Update some comments
With this commit we start to register InvalidateDistRelationCacheCallback
function as cache invalidation callback function before version checks
because during version checks we use cache to look up relation ids of some
relations like pg_dist_relation or pg_dist_partition_logical_relid_index
and we want to know about cache invalidation before accessing them.
During version update, we indirectly calld CheckInstalledVersion via
ChackCitusVersions. This obviously fails because during version update it is
expected to have version mismatch between installed version and binary version.
Thus, we remove that ChackCitusVersions. We now only call ChackAvailableVersion.
Before this commit, we were erroring out at almost all queries if there is a
version mismatch. With this commit, we started to error out only requested
operation touches distributed tables.
Normally we would need to use distributed cache to understand whether a table
is distributed or not. However, it is not safe to read our metadata tables when
there is a version mismatch, thus it is not safe to create distributed cache.
Therefore for this specific occasion, we directly read from pg_dist_partition
table. However; reading from catalog is costly and we should not use this
method in other places as much as possible.
This commit fixes the problem where we incorrectly try to reach distributed table
cache when the extension is not loaded completely. We tried to reach the cache
because we wanted to get reference table information to activate the node. However
it is actually not necessary to explicitly activate the nodes which come from
master_initialize_node_metadata. Because it only runs during extension creation and
at that time there are no reference tables and all nodes are considered as active.
When we propogate the schema creation command to data nodes we add schema's
owner name too. Before this patch, we did not quote the owner's name which
causes problems with the names containing characters like '-'.
We incorrectly try to use relation cache to find particular schema's owner and
when we cannot find the schema in the relation cache(i.e always), we automatically
used current user as the schema's owner. This means we always created schemas in
the data nodes with current user. With this patch we started to use namespace
cache to find schemas.
With this commit, we start to use custom compiled PostgreSQL builds in
Travis for merge commits. This allows us to run isolation tests and
PostgreSQL's own regression tests along with our regression tests in
Travis.
Since manually compiling PostgreSQL takes more time and we also add new
tests, we only enable running these tests on merge commits.
* Accept invalidation messages before accessing the metadata cache
This commit is crucial to prevent stale metadata reads from the
cache. Without this commit, some of the operations may use stale
metadata which could end up with various bugs such as crashes,
inconsistent/lost data etc.
As an example, consider that a COPY operation is blocked on shard
metadata lock. Another concurrent session updates the metadata and
invalidates the cache. However, since Citus doesn't accept invalidations,
COPY continues with the stale metadata once it acquires the lock.
With this commit, we make sure that invalidation messages are accepted
just before accessing the metadata cache and preventing any operation to
use stale metadata.
* Add isolation tests for placement changes and conccurrent operations
- add node with reference table vs COPY/insert/update/DDL
- repair shard vs COPY/insert/update/DDL
- repair shard vs repair shard
Distributed query planning for subquery pushdown is done on the original
query. This prevents the usage of external parameters on the execution.
To overcome this, we manually replace the parameters on the original
query.
* Support for subqueries in WHERE clause
This commit enables subqueries in WHERE clause to be pushed down
by the subquery pushdown logic.
The support covers:
- Correlated subqueries with IN, NOT IN, EXISTS, NOT EXISTS,
operator expressions such as (>, <, =, ALL, ANY etc.)
- Non-correlated subqueries with (partition_key) IN (SELECT partition_key ..)
(partition_key) =ANY (SELECT partition_key ...)
Note that this commit heavily utilizes the attribute equivalence logic introduced
in the 1cb6a34ba8. In general, this commit mostly
adjusts the logical planner not to error out on the subqueries in WHERE clause.
* Improve error checks for subquery pushdown and INSERT ... SELECT
Since we allow subqueries in WHERE clause with the previous commit,
we should apply the same limitations to those subqueries.
With this commit, we do not iterate on each subquery one by one.
Instead, we extract all the subqueries and apply the checks directly
on those subqueries. The aim of this change is to (i) Simplify the
code (ii) Make it close to the checks on INSERT .. SELECT code base.
* Extend checks for unresolved paramaters to include SubLinks
With the presence of subqueries in where clause (i.e., SubPlans on the
query) the existing way for checking unresolved parameters fail. The
reason is that the parameters for SubPlans are kept on the parent plan not
on the query itself (see primnodes.h for the details).
With this commit, instead of checking SubPlans on the modified plans
we start to use originalQuery, where SubLinks represent the subqueries
in where clause. The unresolved parameters can be found on the SubLinks.
* Apply code-review feedback
* Remove unnecessary copying of shard interval list
This commit removes unnecessary copying of shard interval list. Note
that there are no copyObject function implemented for shard intervals.
- There was a crash when the table a shardid belonged to changed during
a session. Instead of crashing (a failed assert) we now throw an error
- Update the isolation test which was crashing to no longer exercise
that code path
- Add a regression test to check that the error is thrown
* Enabling physical planner for subquery pushdown changes
This commit applies the logic that exists in INSERT .. SELECT
planning to the subquery pushdown changes.
The main algorithm is followed as :
- pick an anchor relation (i.e., target relation)
- per each target shard interval
- add the target shard interval's shard range
as a restriction to the relations (if all relations
joined on the partition keys)
- Check whether the query is router plannable per
target shard interval.
- If router plannable, create a task
* Add union support within the JOINS
This commit adds support for UNION/UNION ALL subqueries that are
in the following form:
.... (Q1 UNION Q2 UNION ...) as union_query JOIN (QN) ...
In other words, we currently do NOT support the queries that are
in the following form where union query is not JOINed with
other relations/subqueries :
.... (Q1 UNION Q2 UNION ...) as union_query ....
* Subquery pushdown planner uses original query
With this commit, we change the input to the logical planner for
subquery pushdown. Before this commit, the planner was relying
on the query tree that is transformed by the postgresql planner.
After this commit, the planner uses the original query. The main
motivation behind this change is the simplify deparsing of
subqueries.
* Enable top level subquery join queries
This work enables
- Top level subquery joins
- Joins between subqueries and relations
- Joins involving more than 2 range table entries
A new regression test file is added to reflect enabled test cases
* Add top level union support
This commit adds support for UNION/UNION ALL subqueries that are
in the following form:
.... (Q1 UNION Q2 UNION ...) as union_query ....
In other words, Citus supports allow top level
unions being wrapped into aggregations queries
and/or simple projection queries that only selects
some fields from the lower level queries.
* Disallow subqueries without a relation in the range table list for subquery pushdown
This commit disallows subqueries without relation in the range table
list. This commit is only applied for subquery pushdown. In other words,
we do not add this limitation for single table re-partition subqueries.
The reasoning behind this limitation is that if we allow pushing down
such queries, the result would include (shardCount * expectedResults)
where in a non distributed world the result would be (expectedResult)
only.
* Disallow subqueries without a relation in the range table list for INSERT .. SELECT
This commit disallows subqueries without relation in the range table
list. This commit is only applied for INSERT.. SELECT queries.
The reasoning behind this limitation is that if we allow pushing down
such queries, the result would include (shardCount * expectedResults)
where in a non distributed world the result would be (expectedResult)
only.
* Change behaviour of subquery pushdown flag (#1315)
This commit changes the behaviour of the citus.subquery_pushdown flag.
Before this commit, the flag is used to enable subquery pushdown logic. But,
with this commit, that behaviour is enabled by default. In other words, the
flag is now useless. We prefer to keep the flag since we don't want to break
the backward compatibility. Also, we may consider using that flag for other
purposes in the next commits.
* Require subquery_pushdown when limit is used in subquery
Using limit in subqueries may cause returning incorrect
results. Therefore we allow limits in subqueries only
if user explicitly set subquery_pushdown flag.
* Evaluate expressions on the LIMIT clause (#1333)
Subquery pushdown uses orignal query, the LIMIT and OFFSET clauses
are not evaluated. However, logical optimizer expects these expressions
are already evaluated by the standard planner. This commit manually
evaluates the functions on the logical planner for subquery pushdown.
* Better format subquery regression tests (#1340)
* Style fix for subquery pushdown regression tests
With this commit we intented a more consistent style for the
regression tests we've added in the
- multi_subquery_union.sql
- multi_subquery_complex_queries.sql
- multi_subquery_behavioral_analytics.sql
* Enable the tests that are temporarily commented
This commit enables some of the regression tests that were commented
out until all the development is done.
* Fix merge conflicts (#1347)
- Update regression tests to meet the changes in the regression
test output.
- Replace Ifs with Asserts given that the check is already done
- Update shard pruning outputs
* Add view regression tests for increased subquery coverage (#1348)
- joins between views and tables
- joins between views
- union/union all queries involving views
- views with limit
- explain queries with view
* Improve btree operators for the subquery tests
This commit adds the missing comprasion for subquery composite key
btree comparator.
We previously dismissed this as unimportant, but it turns out to be
very useful for the upcoming subquery pushdown, where a user might
specify an equality constraint in a subquery, and the subquery
pushdown machinery adds >= and <= restrictions on the shard boundary.
Previously the latter restriction was ignored.
It semms that GEQO optimizations, when it is set to on, create their own memory context
and free it after when it is no longer necessary. In join multi_join_restriction_hook
we allocate our variables in the CurrentMemoryContext, which is GEQO's memory context
if it is active. To prevent deallocation of our variables when GEQO's memory context is
freed, we started to allocate memory fo these variables in separate MemoryContext.
So far citus used postgres' predicate proofing logic for shard
pruning, except for INSERT and COPY which were already optimized for
speed. That turns out to be too slow:
* Shard pruning for SELECTs is currently O(#shards), because
PruneShardList calls predicate_refuted_by() for every
shard. Obviously using an O(N) type algorithm for general pruning
isn't good.
* predicate_refuted_by() is quite expensive on its own right. That's
primarily because it's optimized for doing a single refutation
proof, rather than performing the same proof over and over.
* predicate_refuted_by() does not keep persistent state (see 2.) for
function calls, which means that a lot of syscache lookups will be
performed. That's particularly bad if the partitioning key is a
composite key, because without a persistent FunctionCallInfo
record_cmp() has to repeatedly look-up the type definition of the
composite key. That's quite expensive.
Thus replace this with custom-code that works in two phases:
1) Search restrictions for constraints that can be pruned upon
2) Use those restrictions to search for matching shards in the most
efficient manner available:
a) Binary search / Hash Lookup in case of hash partitioned tables
b) Binary search for equal clauses in case of range or append
tables without overlapping shards.
c) Binary search for inequality clauses, searching for both lower
and upper boundaries, again in case of range or append
tables without overlapping shards.
d) exhaustive search testing each ShardInterval
My measurements suggest that we are considerably, often orders of
magnitude, faster than the previous solution, even if we have to fall
back to exhaustive pruning.
This determines whether it's possible to perform binary search on
sortedShardIntervalArray or not. If e.g. two shards have overlapping
ranges, that'd be prohibitive.
That'll be useful in later commit introducing faster shard pruning.
That's useful when comparing values a hash-partitioned table is
filtered by. The existing shardIntervalCompareFunction is about
comparing hashed values, not unhashed ones.
The added btree opclass function is so we can get a comparator
back. This should be changed much more widely, but is not necessary so
far.
Previously we, unnecessarily, used a the first shard's type
information to to look up the comparison function. But that
information is already available, so use it. That's helpful because
we sometimes want to access the comparator function even if there's no
shards.
With this commit, we started to send explain queries within a savepoint. After
running explain query, we rollback to savepoint. This saves us from side effects
of EXPLAIN ANALYZE on DML queries.
All callers fetch a cache entry and extract/compute arguments for the
eventual FindShardInterval call, so it makes more sense to refactor
into that function itself; this solves the use-after-free bug, too.
Soon shard pruning will be optimized not to generally work linearly
anymore. Thus we can't print the pruned shard intervals as currently
done anymore.
The current printing of shard ids also prevents us from running tests
in parallel, as otherwise shard ids aren't linearly numbered.
Pretty straightforward. Had some concerns about locking, but due to the
fact that all distributed operations use either some level of deparsing
or need to enumerate column names, they all block during any concurrent
column renames (due to the AccessExclusive lock).
In addition, I had some misgivings about permitting renames of the dis-
tribution column, but nothing bad comes from just allowing them.
Finally, I tried to trigger any sort of error using prepared statements
and could not trigger any errors not also exhibited by plain PostgreSQL
tables.
With this change, we set to default value of isactive column to true so that
upgrading users all nodes will be marked as active to not break their environment.
With this change we add an option to add a node without replicating all reference
tables to that node. If a node is added with this option, we mark the node as
inactive and no queries will sent to that node.
We also added two new UDFs;
- master_activate_node(host, port):
- marks node as active and replicates all reference tables to that node
- master_add_inactive_node(host, port):
- only adds node to pg_dist_node
Before this commit, we were erroring out for queries containing parameterized SQL functions
like 'SELECT parameterized_sql_query(value)' as we should, however we were returning wrong
results for queries like 'SELECT * FROM parameterized_sql_query(value)'. With this commit
we started to error out on such queries too.
In this PR, we aim to deduce whether each of the RTE_RELATION
is joined with at least on another RTE_RELATION on their partition keys. If each
RTE_RELATION follows the above rule, we can conclude that all RTE_RELATIONs are
joined on their partition keys.
In order to do that, we invented a new equivalence class namely:
AttributeEquivalenceClass. In very simple words, a AttributeEquivalenceClass is
identified by an unique id and consists of a list of AttributeEquivalenceMembers.
Each AttributeEquivalenceMember is designed to identify attributes uniquely within the
whole query. The necessity of this arise since varno attributes are defined within
a single level of a query. Instead, here we want to identify each RTE_RELATION uniquely
and try to find equality among each RTE_RELATION's partition key.
Whenever we find an equality clause A = B, where both A and B originates from
relation attributes (i.e., not random expressions), we create an
AttributeEquivalenceClass to record this knowledge. If we later find another
equivalence B = C, we create another AttributeEquivalenceClass. Finally, we can
apply transitity rules and generate a new AttributeEquivalenceClass which includes
A, B and C.
Note that equality among the members are identified by the varattno and rteIdentity.
Each equality among RTE_RELATION is saved using an AttributeEquivalenceClass where
each member attribute is identified by a AttributeEquivalenceMember. In the final
step, we try generate a common attribute equivalence class that holds as much as
AttributeEquivalenceMembers whose attributes are a partition keys.
This was getting pretty long and complex in the context of the main
utility hook. Moved out the checks for what should skip Citus process-
ing and what should have version checks performed.
The use of a bare src/ rather than $srcdir caused configure to fail
during VPATH builds. With our additional dependency upon AWK, we need
to call AC_PROG_AWK, otherwise environments may not have $AWK set.
Finally, citus_version.h should be in .gitignore.
With this change, we start to error out if loaded citus binaries does not match
the available major version or installed citus extension version. In this case
we force user to restart the server or run ALTER EXTENSION depending on the
situation
Thought this looked slightly nicer than the default behavior.
Changed preventTransaction to concurrent to be clearer that this code
path presently affects CONCURRENTLY code only.
Coordinator code marks index as invalid as a base, set it as valid in a
transactional layer atop that base, then proceeds with worker commands.
If a worker command has problems, the rollback results in an index with
isvalid = false. If everything succeeds, the user sees a valid index.
Before this commit, in certain cases router planner allowed pushing
down JOINs that are not on the partition keys.
With @anarazel's suggestion, we change the logic to use uninstantiated
parameter. Previously, the planner was traversing on the restriction
information and once it finds the parameter, it was replacing it with
the shard range. With this commit, instead of traversing the restrict
infos, the planner explicitly checks for the equivalence of the relation
partition key with the uninstantiated parameter. If finds an equivalence,
it adds the restrictions. In this way, we have more control over the
queries that are pushed down.
Some tests relied on worker errors though local commands were invalid.
Fixed those by ensuring preconditions were met to have command work
correctly. Otherwise most test changes are related to slight changes
in local/remote error ordering.
When running under Enterprise, some of the GRANT commands and whatnot
are propagated. Guarding that section with a call to disable DDL prop.
fixes everything.
With this commit, we add the range table list of the original query to our
custom plan. Therefore, PostgreSQL can check relations in the original query
for access permissions and error out if the proper access is not granted.
Custom Scan is a node in the planned statement which helps external providers
to abstract data scan not just for foreign data wrappers but also for regular
relations so you can benefit your version of caching or hardware optimizations.
This sounds like only an abstraction on the data scan layer, but we can use it
as an abstraction for our distributed queries. The only thing we need to do is
to find distributable parts of the query, plan for them and replace them with
a Citus Custom Scan. Then, whenever PostgreSQL hits this custom scan node in
its Vulcano style execution, it will call our callback functions which run
distributed plan and provides tuples to the upper node as it scans a regular
relation. This means fewer code changes, fewer bugs and more supported features
for us!
First, in the distributed query planner phase, we create a Custom Scan which
wraps the distributed plan. For real-time and task-tracker executors, we add
this custom plan under the master query plan. For router executor, we directly
pass the custom plan because there is not any master query. Then, we simply let
the PostgreSQL executor run this plan. When it hits the custom scan node, we
call the related executor parts for distributed plan, fill the tuple store in
the custom scan and return results to PostgreSQL executor in Vulcano style,
a tuple per XXX_ExecScan() call.
* Modify planner to utilize Custom Scan node.
* Create different scan methods for different executors.
* Use native PostgreSQL Explain for master part of queries.
Previously we'd segfault in PQisnonblocking() which, contrary to other
libpq calls, doesn't handle a NULL PQconn (because there'd be no
appropriate return value for that).

Delete operation is blocked for any table distributed by hash using master_apply_delete_command. Suggested master_modify_multiple_shards command as a hint.
During later work the transaction debug output will change (as it will
in postgres 10), which makes it hard to see actual changes in the
INSERT ... SELECT ... test. Reduce to DEBUG2 after changing a debug
message to that log level.
This change ignores `citus.replication_model` setting and uses the
statement based replication in
- Tables distributed via the old `master_create_distributed_table` function
- Append and range partitioned tables, even if created via
`create_distributed_table` function
This seems like the easiest solution to #1191, without changing the existing
behavior and harming existing users with custom scripts.
This change also prevents RF>1 on streaming replicated tables on `master_create_worker_shards`
Prior to this change, `master_create_worker_shards` command was not checking
the replication model of the target table, thus allowing RF>1 with streaming
replicated tables. With this change, `master_create_worker_shards` errors
out on the case.
PostgreSQL 9.5.6 and 9.6.2 were released today and broke several tests
by adding TABLESPACE pg_default output to some DDL commands. Fixed all
occurrences.
cr: @anarazel
Add a call to RemoteTransactionBeginIfNecessary so that BEGIN is
actually sent to the remote connections. This means that ROLLBACK and
Ctrl-C are respected and don't leave the table in a partial state.
This change fixes the random failures on Travis, which is a bug introduced
with citus/#1124. Before this fix, travis was failing randomly on `check_multi_mx`
test schedule, specifically in the parallel group of `multi_mx_metadata`,
'multi_mx_modifications` and `multi_mx_modifying_xacts` tests. This change fixes this
by serializing these three test cases.
This change allows users to drop sequences on MX workers. Previously, Citus didn't allow dropping
sequences on MX workers because it could cause shards to be dropped if `DROP SEQUENCE ... CASCADE`
is used. We now allow that since allowing sequence creation but not dropping hurts user experience
and also may cause problems with custom Citus solutions.
- Break CheckShardPlacements into multiple functions (The most important
is MarkFailedShardPlacements), so that we can get rid of the global
CoordinatedTransactionUses2PC.
- Call MarkFailedShardPlacements in the router executor, so we mark
shards as invalid and stop using them while inside transaction blocks.
With this change DropShards function started to use new connection API. DropShards
function is used by DROP TABLE, master_drop_all_shards and master_apply_delete_command,
therefore all of these functions now support transactional operations. In DropShards
function, if we cannot reach a node, we mark shard state of related placements as
FILE_TO_DELETE and continue to drop remaining shards; however if any error occurs after
establishing the connection, we ROLLBACK whole operation.
Before this change, when a transaction failed, we update related placements shard states
to FILE_INACTIVE during XACT_EVENT_PRE_COMMIT. However that means if another code block
changed shard state to something else (e.g. FILE_TO_DELETE) before XACT_EVENT_PRE_COMMIT
we overwrite that. To prevent that problem, in case of failure we started to change
shard state, only if its current shard state is FILE_FINALIZED.
This UDF returns a shard placement from cache given shard id and placement id. At the
moment it iterates over all shard placements of given shard by ShardPlacementList and
searches given placement id in that list, which is not a good solution performance-wise.
However, currently, this function will be used only when there is a failed transaction.
If a need arises we can optimize this function in the future.
All router, real-time, task-tracker plannable queries should now have
full prepared statement support (and even use router when possible),
unless they don't go through the custom plan interface (which
basically just affects LANGUAGE SQL (not plpgsql) functions).
This is achieved by forcing postgres' planner to always choose a
custom plan, by assigning very low costs to plans with bound
parameters (i.e. ones were the postgres planner replanned the query
upon EXECUTE with all parameter values provided), instead of the
generic one.
This requires some trickery, because for custom plans to work the
costs for a non-custom plan have to be known, which means we can't
error out when planning the generic plan. Instead we have to return a
"faux" plan, that'd trigger an error message if executed. But due to
the custom plan logic that plan will likely (unless called by an SQL
function, or because we can't support that query for some reason) not
be executed; instead the custom plan will be chosen.
So far router planner had encapsulated different functionality in
MultiRouterPlanCreate. Modifications always go through router, selects
sometimes. Modifications always error out if the query is unsupported,
selects return NULL. Especially the error handling is a problem for
the upcoming extension of prepared statement support.
Split MultiRouterPlanCreate into CreateRouterPlan and
CreateModifyPlan, and change them to not throw errors.
Instead errors are now reported by setting the new
MultiPlan->plannigError.
Callers of router planner functionality now have to throw errors
themselves if desired, but also can skip doing so.
This is a pre-requisite for expanding prepared statement support.
While touching all those lines, improve a number of error messages by
getting them closer to the postgres error message guidelines.
The name CreatePhysicalPlan() hasn't been accurate for a while, and
the split of work between multi_planner() and CreatePhysicalPlan()
doesn't seem perfect. So rename to CreateDistributedPlan() and move a
bit more logic in there.
It can be useful, e.g. in the upcoming prepared statement support, to
be able to return an error from a function that is not raised
immediately, but can later be thrown. That allows e.g. to attempt to
plan a statment using different methods and to create good error
messages in each planner, but to only error out after all planners
have been run.
To enable that create support for deferred error messages that can be
created (supporting errorcode, message, detail, hint) in one function,
and then thrown in different place.
This adds a replication_model GUC which is used as the replication
model for any new distributed table that is not a reference table.
With this change, tables with replication factor 1 are no longer
implicitly MX tables.
The GUC is similarly respected during empty shard creation for e.g.
existing append-partitioned tables. If the model is set to streaming
while replication factor is greater than one, table and shard creation
routines will error until this invalid combination is corrected.
Changing this parameter requires superuser permissions.
If any placements fail it doesn't update shard statistics on those placements.
A minor enabling refactor: Make CoordinatedTransactionUses2PC public (it used to be CoordinatedTransactionUse2PC but that symbol already existed, so renamed it as well)
We changed error message which appears when user tries to execute outer join command and
that command requires repartitioning. Old error message mentioned about 1-to-1 shard
partitioning which may not be clear to user.
This enables proper transactional behaviour for copy and relaxes some
restrictions like combining COPY with single-row modifications. It
also provides the basis for relaxing restrictions further, and for
optionally allowing connection caching.
Instead use pg_plan_query() like the normal explain does, and use that
to explain the query. That's important because it allows to remove
the duplicated planner logic from multi_explain - and that logic is
about to get more complicated.
They make fixing explain for prepared statement harder, and they don't
really fit into EXPLAIN in the first place. Additionally they're
currently not exercised in any tests.
This change adds support for serial columns to be used with MX tables.
Prior to this change, sequences of serial columns were created in all
workers (for being able to create shards) but never used. With MX, we
need to set the sequences so that sequences in each worker create
unique values. This is done by setting the MINVALUE, MAXVALUE and
START values of the sequence.
A small refactor which pulls some code out of `RecoverWorkerTransactions`
and into `remote_commands.c`. This code block currently only occurs in
`RecoverWorkerTransactions` but will be useful to other functions
shortly.
Unfortunately we couldn't call it `ExecuteRemoteCommand`, that name was
already taken.
Because of foreign keys and similar concerns there should only be a
single modifying/DDL connection for a set of colocated placements to a
node. To enforce placement_connection.c now has an additional
hash-table keeping track of the connections to a set of colocated
placements. In addition to enforcing per placement restrictions on
connections, there's now very similar restrictions for sets of
colocated placements.
This commit is intended to improve the error messages while planning
INSERT INTO .. SELECT queries. The main motivation for this change is
that we used to map multiple cases into a single message. With this change,
we added explicit error messages for many cases.
With this change, we start to delete placement of reference tables at given worker node
after master_remove_node UDF call. We remove placement metadata at master node but we do
not drop actual shard from the worker node. There are two reasons for that decision,
first, it is not critical to DROP the shards in the workers because Citus will ignore them
as long as node is removed from cluster and if we add that node back to cluster we will
DROP and recreate all reference tables. Second, if node is unreachable, it becomes
complicated to cover failure cases and have a transaction support.
Enables use views within distributed queries.
User can create and use a view on distributed tables/queries
as he/she would use with regular queries.
After this change router queries will have full support for views,
insert into select queries will support reading from views, not
writing into. Outer joins would have a limited support, and would
error out at certain cases such as when a view is in the inner side
of the outer join.
Although PostgreSQL supports writing into views under certain circumstances.
We disallowed that for distributed views.
In tests related to automatic reference table creation and deletion, there were some
tests whose output may change order thus creating inconsistent test results. With this
change we add ORDER BY clause to related tests to have consistent output.
This change fixes a small bug about quoting of workerrack column in
NodeListInsertCommand:
Previous: `"..., '%s'", workerRack`
Now: `"..., %s", quote_literal_cstr(workerRack)`
So far we've reloaded them frequently. Besides avoiding that cost -
noticeable for some workloads with large shard counts - it makes it
easier to add information to ShardPlacements that help us make
placement_connection.c colocation aware.
Doing so requires adding a mapping from shardId to the cache
entries. For that metadata_cache.c now maintains an additional
hashtable. That hashtable only references shard intervals in the
dist table cache.
Previously the function was getting too large. Thus this splits the
function into separate parts for looking up the cache entry and
building the cache contents.
CloseNodeConnections() is supposed to close connections to a given node.
However, before this commit it lacks to actually call PQFinish() on the
connections. Using CloseConnection() handles closing and all other necessary
actions.
With this change we start to error out on router planner queries where a common table
expression with data-modifying statement is present. We already do not support if
there is a data-modifying statement using result of the CTE, now we also error out
if CTE itself is data-modifying statement.
Remove the router specific transaction and shard management, and
replace it with the new placement connection API. This mostly leaves
behaviour alone, except that it is now, inside a transaction, legal to
select from a shard to which no pre-existing connection exists.
To simplify code the code handling task executions for select and
modify has been split into two - the previous coding was starting to
get confusing due to the amount of only conditionally applicable code.
Modification connections & transactions are now always established in
parallel, not just for reference tables.
Currently there are several places in citus that map placements to
connections and that manage placement health. Centralize this
knowledge. Because of the centralized knowledge about which
connection has previously been used for which shard/placement, this
also provides the basis for relaxing restrictions around combining
various forms of DDL/DML.
Connections for a placement can now be acquired using
GetPlacementConnection(). If the connection is used for DML or DDL the
FOR_DDL/DML flags should be used respectively. If an individual
remote transaction fails (but the transaction on the master succeeds)
and FOR_DDL/DML have been specified, the placement is marked as
invalid, unless that'd mark all placements for a shard as invalid.
With this change, we start to replicate all reference tables to the new node when new node
is added to the cluster with master_add_node command. We also update replication factor
of reference table's colocation group.
Since we will now replicate reference tables each time we add node, we need to ensure
that test space is clean in terms of reference tables before any add node operation.
For this purpose we had to change order of multi_drop_extension test which caused
change of some of the colocation ids.
With this change we introduce new UDF, upgrade_to_reference_table, which can be used to
upgrade existing broadcast tables reference tables. For upgrading, we require that given
table contains only one shard.
Renamed FindShardIntervalIndex() to ShardIndex() and added binary search
capability. It used to assume that hash partition tables are always
uniformly distributed which is not true if upcoming tenant isolation
feature is applied. This commit also reduces code duplication.
Router planner already handles cases when all shards
are pruned out. This is about missing test cases. Notice that
"column is null" and "column = null" have different shard
pruning behavior.
We have one replication of reference table for each node. Therefore all problems with
replication factor > 1 also applies to reference table. As a solution we will not allow
foreign keys on reference tables. It is not possible to define foreign key from, to or
between reference tables.
Previously, we errored out if non-user tries to SELECT query for some metadata tables. It
seems that we already GRANT SELECT access to some metadata tables but not others. With
this change, we GRANT SELECT access to all existing Citus metadata tables.
* Add get_distribution_value_shardid UDF
With this UDF users can now map given distribution value to shard id. We mostly hide
shardids from users to prevent unnecessary complexity but some power users might need
to know about which entry/value is stored in which shard for maintanence purposes.
Signature of this UDF is as follows;
bigint get_distribution_value_shardid(table_name regclass, distribution_value anyelement)
With this commit, we implemented some basic features of reference tables.
To start with, a reference table is
* a distributed table whithout a distribution column defined on it
* the distributed table is single sharded
* and the shard is replicated to all nodes
Reference tables follows the same code-path with a single sharded
tables. Thus, broadcast JOINs are applicable to reference tables.
But, since the table is replicated to all nodes, table fetching is
not required any more.
Reference tables support the uniqueness constraints for any column.
Reference tables can be used in INSERT INTO .. SELECT queries with
the following rules:
* If a reference table is in the SELECT part of the query, it is
safe join with another reference table and/or hash partitioned
tables.
* If a reference table is in the INSERT part of the query, all
other participating tables should be reference tables.
Reference tables follow the regular co-location structure. Since
all reference tables are single sharded and replicated to all nodes,
they are always co-located with each other.
Queries involving only reference tables always follows router planner
and executor.
Reference tables can have composite typed columns and there is no need
to create/define the necessary support functions.
All modification queries, master_* UDFs, EXPLAIN, DDLs, TRUNCATE,
sequences, transactions, COPY, schema support works on reference
tables as expected. Plus, all the pre-requisites associated with
distribution columns are dismissed.
We used to disable router planner and executor
when task executor is set to task-tracker.
This change enables router planning and execution
at all times regardless of task execution mode.
We are introducing a hidden flag enable_router_execution
to enable/disable router execution. Its default value is
true. User may disable router planning by setting it to false.
Adds support for VACUUM and ANALYZE commands which target a specific
distributed table. After grabbing the appropriate locks, this imple-
mentation sends VACUUM commands to each placement (using one connec-
tion per placement). These commands are sent in parallel, so users
with large tables will benefit from sharding. Except for VERBOSE, all
VACUUM and ANALYZE options are supported, including the explicit
column list used by ANALYZE.
As with many of our utility commands, the local command also runs. In
the VACUUM/ANALYZE case, the local command is executed before any re-
mote propagation. Because error handling is managed after local proc-
essing, this can result in a VACUUM completing locally but erroring
out when distributed processing commences: a minor technicality in all
cases, as there isn't really much reason to ever roll back a VACUUM (an
impossibility in any case, as VACUUM cannot run within a transaction).
Remote propagation of targeted VACUUM/ANALYZE is controlled by the
enable_ddl_propagation setting; warnings are emitted if such a command
is attempted when DDL propagation is disabled. Unqualified VACUUM or
ANALYZE is not handled, but a warning message informs the user of this.
Implementation note: this commit adds a "BARE" value to MultiShard-
CommitProtocol. When active, no BEGIN command is ever sent to remote
nodes, useful for commands such as VACUUM/ANALYZE which must not run in
a transaction block. This value is not user-facing and is reset at
transaction end.
This change adds `start_metadata_sync_to_node` UDF which copies the metadata about nodes and MX tables
from master to the specified worker, sets its local group ID and marks its hasmetadata to true to
allow it receive future DDL changes.
One less place managing remote transactions. It also makes it fairly
easy to use 2PC for certain modifications (e.g. reference tables). Just
issue a CoordinatedTransactionUse2PC(). If every placement failure
should cause the whole transaction to abort, additionally mark the
relevant transactions as critical.
Not that this is not with the citus *extension* loaded, just the shared
library. The former runs (by adding --use-existing to the flags) but
has a bunch of trivial test differences.
With this PR, we add foreign key support to ALTER TABLE commands. For now,
we only support foreign constraint creation via ALTER TABLE query, if it
is only subcommand in ALTER TABLE subcommand list.
We also only allow foreign key creation if replication factor is 1.
That way connections can be automatically closed after errors and such,
and the connection management infrastructure gets wider testing. It
also fixes a few issues around connection string building.
This includes basic infrastructure for logging of commands sent to
remote/worker nodes. Note that this has no effect as of yet, since no
callers are converted to the new infrastructure.
Connections are tracked and released by integrating into postgres'
transaction handling. That allows to to use connections without having
to resort to having to disable interrupts or using PG_TRY/CATCH blocks
to avoid leaking connections.
This is intended to eventually replace multi_client_executor.c and
connection_cache.c, and to provide the basis of a centralized
transaction management.
The newly introduced transaction hook should, in the future, be the only
one in citus, to allow for proper ordering between operations. For now
this central handler is responsible for releasing connections and
resetting XactModificationLevel after a transaction.
On some systems a new libpq is available than what we're compiling
against, but until now we used psql in the version we're compiling
against. That' a problem, because (quoting Jason):
With 9.6, libpq's default handling of CONTEXT changed: it is hidden
unless the level is ERROR or higher. We addressed this ourselves using
the SHOW_CONTEXT variable (by setting "always" in pg_regress_multi): in
9.5, this is ignored (and unneeded), in 9.6, it ensures old behavior is
preserved.
For 9.6 we'd already worked around the problem by specifying that
context should always be shown, but < 9.6 psql doesn't know how to do
that.
As there's no csql anymore, which strictly tied us to a specific version
of psql/csql, we can now just use the system's psql if available. We
still fall back to the psql of the installation we're compiling against,
if there's no other psql in PATH.
This commit fixes a bug when the SELECT target list includes a constant
value.
Previous behaviour of target list re-ordering:
* Iterate over the INSERT target list
* If it includes a Var, find the corresponding SELECT entry
and update its resno accordingly
* If it does not include a Var (which we only considered to be
DEFAULTs), generate a new SELECT target entry
* If the processed target entry count in SELECT target list is less
than the original SELECT target list (GROUP BY elements not included in
the SELECT target entry), add them in the SELECT target list and
update the resnos accordingly.
* However, this step was leading to add the CONST SELECT target entries
twice. The reason is that when CONST target list entries appear in the
SELECT target list, the INSERT target list doesn't include a Var. Instead,
it includes CONST as it does for DEFAULTs.
New behaviour of target list re-ordering:
* Iterate over the INSERT target list
* If it includes a Var, find the corresponding SELECT entry
and update its resno accordingly
* If it does not include a Var (which we consider to be
DEFAULTs and CONSTs on the SELECT), generate a new SELECT
target entry
* If any target entry remains on the SELECT target list which are resjunk,
(GROUP BY elements not included in the SELECT target entry), keep them
in the SELECT target list by updating the resnos.
While creating a colocated table, we don't want the source table to be dropped.
However, using a ShareLock blocks DML statements on the source table, and
using AccessShareLock is enough to prevent DROP. Therefore, we just loosened
the lock to AccessShareLock.
This change allows seeing the names of columns of `master_add_node`,
using `SELECT * FROM master_add_node(...)` by specifying output
columns in UDF definition.
Previously, we threw an error when we ran CREATE INDEX IF NOT EXISTS
with an already existing index. This change enables expected behavior by
checking if the statement has IF NOT EXISTS before throwing the error.
We also ensure that we don't execute the command on the workers, if an
index already exists on the master.
At the moment, we do not support foreign constraints if replication factor is greater
than 1. However foreign constraints can be used in cloud with high availability option.
Therefore we do not want to create an impression such that foreign constraints with
high availability is not supported at all. We call users to action with this error
message.
In ErrorIfShardPlacementsNotColocated(), while checking if shards are colocated,
error out if matching shard intervals have different number of shard placements.
Added a new UDF, mark_tables_colocated(), to colocate tables with the same
configuration (shard count, shard replication count and distribution column type).
Fixcitusdata/citus#886
The way postgres' explain hook is designed means that our hook is never
called during EXPLAIN EXECUTE. So, we special-case EXPLAIN EXECUTE by
catching it in the utility hook. We then replace the EXECUTE with the
original query and pass it back to Citus.
Previously, when a repair is requested on a shard, we also repair all co-located shards
of given shard, which may cause repairing already healthy shards. With this change, we
only repair given shard.
This forces prepared statements to be re-planned after changes of the
placement metadata. There's some locking issues remaining, but that's a
a separate task.
Also add regression tests verifying that invalidations take effect on
prepared statements.
This commit adds INSERT INTO ... SELECT feature for distributed tables.
We implement INSERT INTO ... SELECT by pushing down the SELECT to
each shard. To compute that we use the router planner, by adding
an "uninstantiated" constraint that the partition column be equal to a
certain value. standard_planner() distributes that constraint to all
the tables where it knows how to push the restriction safely. An example
is that the tables that are connected via equi joins.
The router planner then iterates over the target table's shards,
for each we replace the "uninstantiated" restriction, with one that
PruneShardList() handles. Do so by replacing the partitioning qual
parameter added in multi_planner() with the current shard's
actual boundary values. Also, add the current shard's boundary values to the
top level subquery to ensure that even if the partitioning qual is
not distributed to all the tables, we never run the queries on the shards
that don't match with the current shard boundaries. Finally, perform the
normal shard pruning to decide on whether to push the query to the
current shard or not.
We do not support certain SQLs on the subquery, which are described/commented
on ErrorIfInsertSelectQueryNotSupported().
We also added some locking on the router executor. When an INSERT/SELECT command
runs on a distributed table with replication factor >1, we need to ensure that
it sees the same result on each placement of a shard. So we added the ability
such that router executor takes exclusive locks on shards from which the SELECT
in an INSERT/SELECT reads in order to prevent concurrent changes. This is not a
very optimal solution, but it's simple and correct. The
citus.all_modifications_commutative can be used to avoid aggressive locking.
An INSERT/SELECT whose filters are known to exclude any ongoing writes can be
marked as commutative. See RequiresConsistentSnapshot() for the details.
We also moved the decison of whether the multiPlan should be executed on
the router executor or not to the planning phase. This allowed us to
integrate multi task router executor tasks to the router executor smoothly.
The necessity for this functionality comes from the fact that ruleutils.c is not supposed to be
used on "rewritten" queries (i.e. ones that have been passed through QueryRewrite()).
Query rewriting is the process in which views and such are expanded,
and, INSERT/UPDATE targetlists are reordered to match the physical order,
defaults etc. For the details of reordeing, see transformInsertRow().
We'd been relying on a single SET search_path command in an earlier
script, but a subsequent script RESET search_path, causing any further
bare functions to be created in the first schema on the search path.
However, starting with an older extension version and executing ALTER
scripts one at a time DOES avoid putting any functions in the public
namespace, so I wrote an upgrade script resilient to that, especially
because PostgreSQL 9.5 will error out if a function is already in the
schema it's being moved to.
Between restart (running the new code) and ALTER EXTENSION citus
UPGRADE there was an inconsistency where we assumed that
pg_dist_partition had the repmodel column set. Now we give it a default
value if the column doesn't exist yet.
With this change, we now push down foreign key constraints created during CREATE TABLE
statements. We also start to send foreign constraints during shard move along with
other DDL statements
create_reference_table() creates a hash distributed table with shard count
equals to 1 and replication factor equals to shard_replication_factor
configuration value.
Adds support for PostgreSQL 9.6 by copying in the requisite ruleutils
file and refactoring the out/readfuncs code to flexibly support the
old-style copy/pasted out/readfuncs (prior to 9.6) or use extensible
node APIs (in 9.6 and higher).
Most version-specific code within this change is only needed to set new
fields in the AggRef nodes we build for aggregations. Version-specific
test output files were added in certain cases, though in most they were
not necessary. Each such file begins by e.g. printing the major version
in order to clarify its purpose.
The comment atop citus_nodes.h details how to add support for new nodes
for when that becomes necessary.
This change adds the pg_dist_local_group metadata table, which indicates
the group id of the current node. It is expected that this table contains
one and only one row, which only contains the group id of the node as an
integer.
With this change, master_copy_shard_placement and master_move_shard_placement functions
start to copy/move given shard along with its co-located shards.
This commit completes having support in Citus by adding having support for
real-time and task-tracker executors. Multiple tests are added to regression
tests to cover new supported queries with having support.
This change adds the required infrastructure about metadata snapshot from MX
codebase into Citus, mainly metadata_sync.c file and master_metadata_snapshot UDF.
Two sets of tests are fixed by this change:
* multi_agg_approximate_distinct
* those in multi_task_tracker_extra_schedule
The first broke when we renamed stage to load in many files and was
never being run because the HyperLogLog extension wasn't easily
available in Debian. Now it's in our repo, so we install it and run
the test. I removed the distinct HLL target in favor of just always
running it and providing an output variant to handle when the extension
is absent. Basically, if PostgreSQL thinks HLL is available, the test
installs it and runs normally, otherwise the absent variant is used.
The second broke when I removed a test variant, erroneously believing
it to be related to an older Citus version. I've added a line in that
test to clarify why the variant is necessary (a practice we should
widely adopt).
So far placements were assigned an Oid, but that was just used to track
insertion order. It also did so incompletely, as it was not preserved
across changes of the shard state. The behaviour around oid wraparound
was also not entirely as intended.
The newly introduced, explicitly assigned, IDs are preserved across
shard-state changes.
The prime goal of this change is not to improve ordering of task
assignment policies, but to make it easier to reference shards. The
newly introduced UpdateShardPlacementState() makes use of that, and so
will the in-progress connection and transaction management changes.

This change adds the `pg_dist_node` table that contains the information
about the workers in the cluster, replacing the previously used
`pg_worker_list.conf` file (or the one specified with `citus.worker_list_file`).
Upon update, `pg_worker_list.conf` file is read and `pg_dist_node` table is
populated with the file's content. After that, `pg_worker_list.conf` file
is renamed to `pg_worker_list.conf.obsolete`
For adding and removing nodes, the change also includes two new UDFs:
`master_add_node` and `master_remove_node`, which require superuser
permissions.
'citus.worker_list_file' guc is kept for update purposes but not used after the
update is finished.

Removes AppendShardIdToStringInfo() as it's used only once

hash_create(), called by TaskHashCreate(), doesn't work correctly for a
zero sized hash table. This triggers valgrind errors, and could
potentially cause crashes even without valgring.
This currently happens for Jobs with 0 tasks. These probably should be
optimized away before reaching TaskHashCreate(), but that's a bigger
change.
count_agg_clause *adds* the cost of the aggregates to the state
variable, it doesn't reinitialize it. That is intentional, as it is used
to incrementally add costs in some places.

Test coverage of a hash reparitition using a UDT as the join column.
Note that the UDFs `worker_hash_partition_table` and `worker_range_partition_table`
are unchanged, and rightly expect an OID for the column type; but the
planner code building the commands now allows for `::regtype` casting
to do its magic.

On `InsertShardRow`, we previously called `CommandCounterIncrement()` before
`CitusInvalidateRelcacheByRelid(relationId);`. This might prevent to skip
invalidation of the distributed table in the next access within the same session.
This commit enables to create different worker and master temporary folders.
This change is important for citus-mx on task-tracker execution. In simple words,
on citus-mx, the worker could actually be reponsible for the master tasks as well.
Prior to this change, both master and worker logic on task-tracker executor was
accessing and using the same files for different purposes which was dangerous on
certain cases (i.e., when task_tracker_delay is low).
Before this change, count on a distributed returned NULL if all shards
were pruned away, because on the master we replace with count(..) call
with a sum(..) call to sum the counts from the shards. However, sum
returns NULL when there are no rows, whereas count is expected to return
0.
I had changed these callbacks to use the same method I chose for the
router executor (for consistency), but as that method is flawed, we now
want to ensure we directly register them from PG_init as well.
Not entirely sure why we went with the shared memory hook approach, but
it causes problems (multiple registration) during crashes. Changing to
a simple direct registration call from PG_init.
An interaction between ReraiseRemoteError and DML transaction support
causes segfaults:
* ReraiseRemoteError calls PurgeConnection, freeing a connection...
* That connection is still in the xactParticipantHash
At transaction end, the memory in the freed connection might happen to
pass the "is this connection OK?" check, causing us to try to send an
ABORT over that connection. By removing it from the transaction hash
before calling ReraiseRemoteError, we avoid this possibility.
