In the past (pre-11), we allowed removing worker nodes
that had active placements for replicated distributed
table, without even checking if there are any other
replicas of the same placement.
However, with #5469, we prevent disabling nodes via a hard
error when there is the last active placement of shard, as we
do for reference tables. Note that otherwise, we'd allow
users to lose data.
As of today, the NOTICE is completely irrelevant.
CREATE FUNCTION command together with it's dependencies.
If the function depends on any nondistributable object,
function will be created only locally. Parameterless
version of create_distributed_function becomes obsolete
with this change, it will deprecated from the code with a subsequent PR.
We prefer the background daemon to only sync node metadata. That's
why we move placement metadata changes from disable node to
activate node. With that, we can make sure that disable node
only changes node metadata, whereas activate node syncs all
the metadata changes. In essence, we already expect all
nodes to be up when a node is activated. So, this does not change
the behavior much.
As of master branch, Citus does all the modifications to replicated tables
(e.g., reference tables and distributed tables with replication factor > 1),
via 2PC and avoids any shardstate=3. As a side-effect of those changes,
handling node failures for replicated tables change.
With this PR, when one (or multiple) node failures happen, the users would
see query errors on modifications. If the problem is intermitant, that's OK,
once the node failure(s) recover by themselves, the modification queries would
succeed. If the node failure(s) are permenant, the users should call
`SELECT citus_disable_node(...)` to disable the node. As soon as the node is
disabled, modification would start to succeed. However, now the old node gets
behind. It means that, when the node is up again, the placements should be
re-created on the node. First, use `SELECT citus_activate_node()`. Then, use
`SELECT replicate_table_shards(...)` to replicate the missing placements on
the re-activated node.
Before this commit, we acquire the metadata locks on the reference
tables while removing/disabling a node on all the MX nodes.
Although it has some marginal benefits, such as a concurrent
modification during remove/disable node blocks, instead of erroring
out, the drawbacks seems worse. Both citus_remove_node and citus_disable_node
are not tolerant to multiple node failures.
With this commit, we relax the locks. The implication is that while
a node is removed/disabled, users might see query errors. On the
other hand, this change becomes removing/disabling nodes more
tolerant to multiple node failures.
As we use the current user to sync the metadata to the nodes
with #5105 (and many other PRs), there is no reason that
prevents us to use the coordinated transaction for metadata syncing.
This commit also renames few functions to reflect their actual
implementation.

We currently put the actual error message to the detail part. However,
many drivers don't show detail part.
As connection errors are somehow common, and hard to trace back, can't
we added the detail to the message itself.
In addition to that, we changed "connection error" message, as it
was confusing to the users who think that the error was happening
while connecting to the coordinator. In fact, this error is showing
up when the coordinator fails to connect remote nodes.
* invalidate plan cache in master_update_node
If a plan is cached by postgres but a user uses master_update_node, then
when the plan cache is used for the updated node, they will get the old
nodename/nodepost in the plan. This is because the plan cache doesn't
know about the master_update_node. This could be a problem in prepared
statements or anything that goes into plancache. As a solution the plan
cache is invalidated inside master_update_node.
* add invalidate_inactive_shared_connections test function
We introduce invalidate_inactive_shared_connections udf to be used in
testing. It is possible that a connection count for an inactive node
will be greater than 0 and in that case it will not be removed at the
time of invalidation. However, later we don't have a mechanism to remove
it, which means that it will stay in the hash. For this not to cause a
problem, we use this udf in testing.
* move invalidate_inactive_shared_connections to udfs from test as it will be used in mx
* remove the test udf
* remove the IsInactive check
Test ALTER ROLE doesn't deadlock when coordinator added, or propagate from mx workers
Consolidate wait_until_metadata_sync & verify_metadata to multi_test_helpers
