In the past, having columnar tables in the cluster was causing pg
upgrades to fail when attempting to access columnar metadata. This is
because, pg_dump doesn't see objects that we use for columnar-am related
booking as the dependencies of the tables using columnar-am.
To fix that; in #5456, we inserted some "normal dependency" edges (from
those objects to columnar-am) into pg_depend.
This helped us ensuring the existency of a class of metadata objects
--such as columnar.storageid_seq-- and helped fixing #5437.
However, the normal-dependency edges that we added for indexes on
columnar metadata tables --such columnar.stripe_pkey-- didn't help at
all because they were indeed causing dependency loops (#5510) and
pg_dump was not able to take those dependency edges into the account.
For this reason, this commit deletes those dependency edges so that
pg_dump stops complaining about them. Note that it's not critical to
delete those edges from pg_depend since they're not breaking pg upgrades
but were triggering some warning messages. And given that backporting
a sql change into older versions is hard a lot, we skip backporting
this.
This commit hides port numbers in upgrade_columnar_after because the
port numbers assigned to nodes in upgrade schedule differ from the ones
that flaky test detector assigns.
* Remove if conditions with PG_VERSION_NUM < 13
* Remove server_above_twelve(&eleven) checks from tests
* Fix tests
* Remove pg12 and pg11 alternative test output files
* Remove pg12 specific normalization rules
* Some more if conditions in the code
* Change RemoteCollationIdExpression and some pg12/pg13 comments
* Remove some more normalization rules
Move internal storage details to a separate schema with no public
access to limit the possibility for information leakage.
Create views with public access that show storage details for those
columnar tables where the user has ownership privileges. Include
mapping between relation ID and storage ID for easier interpretation.
During pg upgrades, we have seen that it is not guaranteed that a
columnar table will be created after metadata objects got created.
Prior to changes done in this commit, we had such a dependency
relationship in `pg_depend`:
```
columnar_table ----> columnarAM ----> citus extension
^ ^
| |
columnar.storage_id_seq -------------------- |
|
columnar.stripe -------------------------------
```
Since `pg_upgrade` just knows to follow topological sort of the objects
when creating database dump, above dependency graph doesn't imply that
`columnar_table` should be created before metadata objects such as
`columnar.storage_id_seq` and `columnar.stripe` are created.
For this reason, with this commit we add new records to `pg_depend` to
make columnarAM depending on all rel objects living in `columnar`
schema. That way, `pg_upgrade` will know it needs to create those before
creating `columnarAM`, and similarly, before creating any tables using
`columnarAM`.
Note that in addition to inserting those records via installation script,
we also do the same in `citus_finish_pg_upgrade()`. This is because,
`pg_upgrade` rebuilds catalog tables in the new cluster and that means,
we must insert them in the new cluster too.
Drop extension might cascade to columnar.options before dropping a
columnar table. In that case, we were getting below error when opening
columnar.options to delete records for the columnar table that we are
about to drop.: "ERROR: could not open relation with OID 0".
I somehow reproduced this bug easily when upgrading pg, that is why
adding added the test to after_pg_upgrade_schedule.
* Make (columnar.stripe) first_row_number index a unique constraint
Since stripe_first_row_number_idx is required to scan a columnar
table, we need to make sure that it is created before doing anything
with columnar tables during pg upgrades.
However, a plain btree index is not a dependency of a table, so
pg_upgrade cannot guarantee that stripe_first_row_number_idx gets
created when creating columnar.stripe, unless we make it a unique
"constraint".
To do that, drop stripe_first_row_number_idx and create a unique
constraint with the same name to keep the code change at minimum.
* Add more pg upgrade tests for columnar
* Fix a logic error in uprade_columnar_after test
