Tradionally our planner works in the following order:
router - > pushdown -> repartition -> pull to coordinator
However, for INSERT .. SELECT commands, we did not support "router".
In practice, that is not a big issue, because pushdown planning can
handle router case as well.
However, with PG 16, certain outer joins are converted to JOIN without
any conditions (e.g., JOIN .. ON (true)) and the filters are pushed down
to the tables.
When the filters are pushed down to the tables, router planner can
detect. However, pushdown planner relies on JOIN conditions.
An example query:
```
INSERT INTO agg_events (user_id)
SELECT raw_events_first.user_id
FROM raw_events_first LEFT JOIN raw_events_second
ON raw_events_first.user_id = raw_events_second.user_id
WHERE raw_events_first.user_id = 10;
```
As a side effect of this change, now we can also relax certain
limitation that "pushdown" planner emposes, but not "router". So, with
this PR, we also allow those.
Closes https://github.com/citusdata/citus/pull/6772
DESCRIPTION: Prevents unnecessarily pulling the data into coordinator
for some INSERT .. SELECT queries that target a single-shard group
and the expression originating from the source. If the types are different, Citus uses
different hash functions for the two column types, which might lead to incorrect repartitioning
of the result data
Previously, we only checked whether the relations are colocated, but we
ignore the shard indexes. That causes certain queries still to be
accidentally router. We should enforce colocation checks for both shard
index and table colocation id to make the check restrictive enough.
For example, the following query should not be router, and after this
patch, it won't:
```SQL
SELECT
user_id
FROM
((SELECT user_id FROM raw_events_first WHERE user_id = 15) EXCEPT
(SELECT user_id FROM raw_events_second where user_id = 17)) as foo;
```
DESCRIPTION: Enforce shard level colocation with
citus.enable_non_colocated_router_query_pushdown
This PR provides successful compilation against PG16Beta2. It does some
necessary refactoring to prepare for full support of version 16, in
https://github.com/citusdata/citus/pull/6952 .

This commit is the second and last phase of dropping PG13 support.
It consists of the following:
- Removes all PG_VERSION_13 & PG_VERSION_14 from codepaths
- Removes pg_version_compat entries and columnar_version_compat entries
specific for PG13
- Removes alternative pg13 test outputs
- Removes PG13 normalize lines and fix the test outputs based on that
It is a continuation of 5bf163a27d
1) For distributed tables that are not colocated.
2) When joining on a non-distribution column for colocated tables.
3) When merging into a distributed table using reference or citus-local tables as the data source.
This is accomplished primarily through the implementation of the following two strategies.
Repartition: Plan the source query independently,
execute the results into intermediate files, and repartition the files to
co-locate them with the merge-target table. Subsequently, compile a final
merge query on the target table using the intermediate results as the data
source.
Pull-to-coordinator: Execute the plan that requires evaluation at the coordinator,
run the query on the coordinator, and redistribute the resulting rows to ensure
colocation with the target shards. Direct the MERGE SQL operation to the worker
nodes' target shards, using the intermediate files colocated with the data as the
data source.
While going over this piece of code (a long time ago) it was bothering
to me we keep a bool array with the size of shardcount to iterate only
over shards present in the list of non-pruned shards. Especially since
we keep min/max of the set shards to optimize iteration.
Postgres has the bitmapset datastructure which a) takes significantly
less space, b) has iterator functions to only iterate over set bits, c)
can efficiently skip long sequences of unset bits and d) stops quickly
once the last set bit has been reached.
I have been contemplating if it is worth to keep the minShardOffset
because of readability and the efficient skipping of unset bits,
however, I have decided to keep it -although less readable-, as there
are known usecases where 100k+ shards are pruned to single digit shards.
If these would end up at the end of `shardcount` a hotloop of zero
checks on the first iteration _could_ cause a theoretical performance
regression.
All in all, this code is using less memory in all cases where it
matters, and less cpu in most cases, while using more idiomatic
datastructures for the task at hand.
PG16beta1 added some sanity checks for GUCS, find the Relevant PG
commits below:
1- Add check on initial and boot values when loading GUCs
a73952b795
2- Extend check_GUC_init() with checks on flag combinations when loading
GUCs
009f8d1714
I fixed our currently problematic GUCS, we can merge this directly into
main as these make sense for any PG version.
There was a particular NodeConninfo issue:
Previously we would rely on the fact that NodeConninfo initial value
is an empty string. However, with PG16 enforcing same initial and boot
values, we can't use an empty initial value for NodeConninfo anymore.
Therefore we add a new flag to indicate whether we are at boot check.
PG16 removed them. They were already identical to Assert. We can merge
this directly to main branch

Previously INSERT .. SELECT planner were pushing down some queries that should not be pushed down due to wrong colocation checks. It was checking whether one of the table in SELECT part and target table are colocated. But now, we check colocation for all tables in SELECT part and the target table.
Another problem with INSERT .. SELECT planner was that some queries, which is valid to be pushed down, were not pushed down due to unnecessary checks which are currently supported. e.g. UNION check. As solution, we reused the pushdown planner checks for INSERT .. SELECT planner.

We mark objects as distributed objects in Citus metadata only if we need
to propagate given the command that creates it to worker nodes. For this
reason, we were not doing this for the objects that are created while
pg_dist_node is empty.
One implication of doing so is that we defer the schema propagation to
the time when user creates the first distributed table in the schema.
However, this doesn't help for schema-based sharding (#6866) because we
want to sync pg_dist_tenant_schema to the worker nodes even for empty
schemas too.
* Support test dependencies for isolation tests without a schedule
* Comment out a test due to a known issue (#6901)
* Also, reduce the verbosity for some log messages and make some
tests compatible with run_test.py.
* Add support for dist insert select by selecting from a reference
table.
This was the only pushable insert .. select case that
#6773 didn't cover.
* For the cases where we insert into a Citus table but the INSERT ..
SELECT
query cannot be pushed down, allow pull-to-coordinator when possible.
Remove the checks that we had at the very beginning of
CreateInsertSelectPlanInternal so that we can try insert .. select via
pull-to-coordinator for the cases where we cannot push-down the insert
.. select query. What we support via pull-to-coordinator is still
limited due to lacking of logical planner support for SELECT queries,
but this commit at least allows using pull-to-coordinator for the cases
where the select query can be planned via router planner, without
limiting ourselves to restrictive top-level checks.
Also introduce some additional restrictions into
CreateDistributedInsertSelectPlan for the cases it was missing to check
for null-shard-key tables. Indeed, it would make more sense to have
those checks for distributed tables in general, via separate PRs against
main branch. See https://github.com/citusdata/citus/pull/6817.
* Add support for inserting into a Postgres table.
Enable router planner and a limited version of INSERT .. SELECT planner
for the queries that reference colocated null shard key tables.
* SELECT / UPDATE / DELETE / MERGE is supported as long as it's a router
query.
* INSERT .. SELECT is supported as long as it only references colocated
null shard key tables.
Note that this is not only limited to distributed INSERT .. SELECT but
also
covers a limited set of query types that require pull-to-coordinator,
e.g.,
due to LIMIT clause, generate_series() etc. ...
(Ideally distributed INSERT .. SELECT could handle such queries too,
e.g.,
when we're only referencing tables that don't have a shard key, but
today
this is not the case. See
https://github.com/citusdata/citus/pull/6773#discussion_r1140130562.
Add tests for ddl coverage:
* indexes
* partitioned tables + indexes with long names
* triggers
* foreign keys
* statistics
* grant & revoke statements
* truncate & vacuum
* create/test/drop view that depends on a dist table with no shard key
* policy & rls test
* alter table add/drop/alter_type column (using sequences/different data
types/identity columns)
* alter table add constraint (not null, check, exclusion constraint)
* alter table add column with a default value / set default / drop

* alter table set option (autovacuum)
* indexes / constraints without names
* multiple subcommands
Adds support for
* Creating new partitions after distributing (with null key) the parent
table
* Attaching partitions to a distributed table with null distribution key
(and automatically distribute the new partition with null key as well)
* Detaching partitions from it
With this PR, we allow creating distributed tables with without
specifying a shard key via create_distributed_table(). Here are the
the important details about those tables:
* Specifying `shard_count` is not allowed because it is assumed to be 1.
* We mostly call such tables as "null shard-key" table in code /
comments.
* To avoid doing a breaking layout change in create_distributed_table();
instead of throwing an error, it will inform the user that
`distribution_type`
param is ignored unless it's explicitly set to NULL or 'h'.
* `colocate_with` param allows colocating such null shard-key tables to
each other.
* We define this table type, i.e., NULL_SHARD_KEY_TABLE, as a subclass
of
DISTRIBUTED_TABLE because we mostly want to treat them as distributed
tables in terms of SQL / DDL / operation support.
* Metadata for such tables look like:
- distribution method => DISTRIBUTE_BY_NONE
- replication model => REPLICATION_MODEL_STREAMING
- colocation id => **!=** INVALID_COLOCATION_ID (distinguishes from
Citus local tables)
* We assign colocation groups for such tables to different nodes in a
round-robin fashion based on the modulo of "colocation id".
Note that this PR doesn't care about DDL (except CREATE TABLE) / SQL /
operation (i.e., Citus UDFs) support for such tables but adds a
preliminary
API.
`PlaceHolderVar` is not relevant to be processed inside a restriction
clause. Otherwise, `pull_var_clause_default` would throw error. PG would
create the restriction to physical `Var` that `PlaceHolderVar` points to
anyway, so it is safe to skip this restriction.
DESCRIPTION: Fixes a bug related to WHERE clause list which contains
placeholder.
Fixes https://github.com/citusdata/citus/issues/6758
DESCRIPTION: Adds views that monitor statistics on tenant usages
This PR adds `citus_stats_tenants` view that monitors the tenants on the
cluster.
`citus_stats_tenants` shows the node id, colocation id, tenant
attribute, read count in this period and last period, and query count in
this period and last period of the tenant.
Tenant attribute currently is the tenant's distribution column value,
later when schema based sharding is introduced, this meaning might
change.
A period is a time bucket the queries are counted by. Read and query
counts for this period can increase until the current period ends. After
that those counts are moved to last period's counts, which cannot
change. The period length can be set using 'citus.stats_tenants_period'.
`SELECT` queries are counted as _read_ queries, `INSERT`, `UPDATE` and
`DELETE` queries are counted as _write_ queries. So in the view read
counts are `SELECT` counts and query counts are `SELECT`, `INSERT`,
`UPDATE` and `DELETE` count.
The data is stored in shared memory, in a struct named
`MultiTenantMonitor`.
`citus_stats_tenants` shows the data from local tenants.
`citus_stats_tenants` show up to `citus.stats_tenant_limit` number of
tenants.
The tenants are scored based on the number of queries they run and the
recency of those queries. Every query ran increases the score of tenant
by `ONE_QUERY_SCORE`, and after every period ends the scores are halved.
Halving is done lazily.
To retain information a longer the monitor keeps up to 3 times
`citus.stats_tenant_limit` tenants. When the tenant count hits `3 *
citus.stats_tenant_limit`, last `citus.stats_tenant_limit` tenants are
removed. To see all stored tenants you can use
`citus_stats_tenants(return_all_tenants := true)`

DESCRIPTION: Fix an issue that caused some queries with custom
aggregates to fail
While playing around with https://github.com/pgvector/pgvector I noticed
that the AVG query was broken. That's because we treat it as any other
AVG by breaking it down in SUM and COUNT, but there are no SUM/COUNT
functions in this case, but there is a perfectly usable combinefunc.
This PR changes our aggregate logic to prefer custom aggregates with a
combinefunc even if they have a common name.

Today we allow planning the queries that reference non-colocated tables
if the shards that query targets are placed on the same node. However,
this may not be the case, e.g., after rebalancing shards because it's
not guaranteed to have those shards on the same node anymore.
This commit adds citus.enable_non_colocated_router_query_pushdown GUC
that can be used to disallow planning such queries via router planner,
when it's set to false. Note that the default value for this GUC will be
"true" for 11.3, but we will alter it to "false" on 12.0 to not
introduce
a breaking change in a minor release.
Closes#692.
Even more, allowing such queries to go through router planner also
causes
generating an incorrect plan for the DML queries that reference
distributed
tables that are sharded based on different replication factor settings.
For
this reason, #6779 can be closed after altering the default value for
this
GUC to "false", hence not now.
DESCRIPTION: Adds `citus.enable_non_colocated_router_query_pushdown` GUC
to ensure generating a consistent distributed plan for the queries that
reference non-colocated distributed tables (when set to "false", the
default is "true").
Because they're only interested in distributed tables. Even more,
this replaces HasDistributionKey() check with
IsCitusTableType(DISTRIBUTED_TABLE) because this doesn't make a
difference on main and sounds slightly more intuitive. Plus, this
would also allow safely using this function in
https://github.com/citusdata/citus/pull/6773.

This implements the phase - II of MERGE sql support
Support routable query where all the tables in the merge-sql are distributed, co-located, and both the source and
target relations are joined on the distribution column with a constant qual. This should be a Citus single-task
query. Below is an example.
SELECT create_distributed_table('t1', 'id');
SELECT create_distributed_table('s1', 'id', colocate_with => ‘t1’);
MERGE INTO t1
USING s1 ON t1.id = s1.id AND t1.id = 100
WHEN MATCHED THEN
UPDATE SET val = s1.val + 10
WHEN MATCHED THEN
DELETE
WHEN NOT MATCHED THEN
INSERT (id, val, src) VALUES (s1.id, s1.val, s1.src)
Basically, MERGE checks to see if
There are a minimum of two distributed tables (source and a target).
All the distributed tables are indeed colocated.
MERGE relations are joined on the distribution column
MERGE .. USING .. ON target.dist_key = source.dist_key
The query should touch only a single shard i.e. JOIN AND with a constant qual
MERGE .. USING .. ON target.dist_key = source.dist_key AND target.dist_key = <>
If any of the conditions are not met, it raises an exception.
(cherry picked from commit 44c387b978)
This implements MERGE phase3
Support pushdown query where all the tables in the merge-sql are Citus-distributed, co-located, and both
the source and target relations are joined on the distribution column. This will generate multiple tasks
which execute independently after pushdown.
SELECT create_distributed_table('t1', 'id');
SELECT create_distributed_table('s1', 'id', colocate_with => ‘t1’);
MERGE INTO t1
USING s1
ON t1.id = s1.id
WHEN MATCHED THEN
UPDATE SET val = s1.val + 10
WHEN MATCHED THEN
DELETE
WHEN NOT MATCHED THEN
INSERT (id, val, src) VALUES (s1.id, s1.val, s1.src)
*The only exception for both the phases II and III is, UPDATEs and INSERTs must be done on the same shard-group
as the joined key; for example, below scenarios are NOT supported as the key-value to be inserted/updated is not
guaranteed to be on the same node as the id distribution-column.
MERGE INTO target t
USING source s ON (t.customer_id = s.customer_id)
WHEN NOT MATCHED THEN - -
INSERT(customer_id, …) VALUES (<non-local-constant-key-value>, ……);
OR this scenario where we update the distribution column itself
MERGE INTO target t
USING source s On (t.customer_id = s.customer_id)
WHEN MATCHED THEN
UPDATE SET customer_id = 100;
(cherry picked from commit fa7b8949a8)
Now that we will soon add another table type having DISTRIBUTE_BY_NONE
as distribution method and that we want the code to interpret such
tables mostly as distributed tables, let's make the definition of those
other two table types more strict by removing
CITUS_TABLE_WITH_NO_DIST_KEY
macro.
And instead, use HasDistributionKey() check in the places where the
logic applies to all table types that have / don't have a distribution
key. In future PRs, we might want to convert some of those
HasDistributionKey() checks if logic only applies to Citus local /
reference tables, not the others.
And adding HasDistributionKey() also allows us to consider having
DISTRIBUTE_BY_NONE as the distribution method as a "table attribute"
that can apply to distributed tables too, rather something that
determines the table type.
When auto_explain module is loaded and configured, EXPLAIN will be
implicitly run for all the supported commands. Postgres does not support
`EXPLAIN` for `ALTER` command. However, auto_explain will try to
`EXPLAIN` other supported commands internally triggered by `ALTER`.
For instance,
`ALTER TABLE target_table ADD CONSTRAINT fkey_167 FOREIGN KEY (col_1)
REFERENCES ref_table(key) ... `
command may trigger a SELECT command in the following form for foreign
key validation purpose:
`SELECT fk.col_1 FROM ONLY target_table fk LEFT OUTER JOIN ONLY
ref_table pk ON ( pk.key OPERATOR(pg_catalog.=) fk.col_1) WHERE pk.key
IS NULL AND (fk.col_1 IS NOT NULL) `
For Citus tables, the Citus utility hook should ensure that constraint
validation is skipped for shell tables but they are done for shard
tables. The reason behind this design choice can be summed up as:
- An ALTER TABLE command via coordinator node is run in a distributed
transaction.
- Citus does not support nested distributed transactions.
- A SELECT query on a distributed table (aka shell table) is also run in
a distributed transaction.
- Therefore, Citus does not support running a SELECT query on a shell
table while an ALTER TABLE command is running.
With
eadc88a800
a bug is introduced breaking the skip constraint validation behaviour of
Citus. With this change, we see that validation queries on distributed
tables are triggered within `ALTER` command adding constraints with
validation check. This regression did not cause an issue for regular use
cases since the citus executor hook blocks those queries heuristically
when there is an ALTER TABLE command in progress.
The issue is surfaced as a crash (#6424 Workers, when configured to use
auto_explain, crash during distributed transactions.) when auto_explain
is enabled. This is due to auto_explain trying to execute the SELECT
queries in a nested distributed transaction.
Now since the regression with constraint validation is fixed in
https://github.com/citusdata/citus/issues/6543, we should be able to
remove the workaround.
Recursive planner should handle all the tree from bottom to top at
single pass. i.e. It should have already recursively planned all
required parts in its first pass. Otherwise, this means we have bug at
recursive planner, which needs to be handled. We add a check here and
return error.
DESCRIPTION: Fixes wrong results by throwing error in case recursive
planner multipass the query.
We found 3 different cases which causes recursive planner passes the
query multiple times.
1. Sublink in WHERE clause is planned at second pass after we
recursively planned a distributed table at the first pass. Fixed by PR
#6657.
2. Local-distributed joins are recursively planned at both the first and
the second pass. Issue #6659.
3. Some parts of the query is considered to be noncolocated at the
second pass as we do not generate attribute equivalances between
nondistributed and distributed tables. Issue #6653
We should do the sublink conversations at the end of the recursive
planning because earlier steps might have transformed the query into a
shape that needs recursively planning the sublinks.
DESCRIPTION: Fixes early sublink check at recursive planner.
Related to PR https://github.com/citusdata/citus/pull/6650
If an update query on a reference table has a returns clause with a
subquery that accesses some other local table, we end-up with an crash.
This commit prevents the crash, but does not prevent other error
messages from happening due to Citus not being able to pushdown the
results of that subquery in a valid SQL command.
