Before this commit, we erroneously converted the sequence
type to the column's type it is used. However, it is possible
that the sequence is used in an expression which then converted
to a type that cannot be a sequence, such as text.
With this commit, we only try this conversion if the column
type is a supported sequence type (e.g., smallint, int and bigint).
Note that we do this conversion because if the column type is a
bigint and the sequence is NOT a bigint, users would be in trouble
because sequences would generate values that are out of the range
of the column. (The other ways are already not supported such as
the column is int and the sequence is bigint would fail on the worker.)
In other words, with this commit, we scope this optimization only
when the target column type is a supported sequence type. Otherwise,
we let users to more freely use the sequences.
With the introduction of #4385 we inadvertently started allowing and
pushing down certain lateral subqueries that were unsafe to push down.
To be precise the type of LATERAL subqueries that is unsafe to push down
has all of the following properties:
1. The lateral subquery contains some non recurring tuples
2. The lateral subquery references a recurring tuple from
outside of the subquery (recurringRelids)
3. The lateral subquery requires a merge step (e.g. a LIMIT)
4. The reference to the recurring tuple should be something else than an
equality check on the distribution column, e.g. equality on a non
distribution column.
Property number four is considered both hard to detect and probably not
used very often. Thus this PR ignores property number four and causes
query planning to error out if the first three properties hold.
Fixes#5327
TEXT SEARCH DICTIONARY objects depend on TEXT SEARCH TEMPLATE objects.
Since we do not yet support distributed TS TEMPLATE objects, we skip
dependency checks for text search templates, similar to what we do for
roles.
The user is expected to manually create the TEXT SEARCH TEMPLATE objects
before a) adding new nodes, b) creating TEXT SEARCH DICTIONARY objects.
If a worker node is being added, a command is sent to get the server_id of the worker from the pg_dist_node_metadata table. If the worker's id is the same as the node executing the code, we will know the node is trying to add itself. If the node tries to add itself without specifying `groupid:=0` the operation will result in an error.
DESCRIPTION: Move pg_dist_object to pg_catalog
Historically `pg_dist_object` had been created in the `citus` schema as an experiment to understand if we could move our catalog tables to a branded schema. We quickly realised that this interfered with the UX on our managed services and other environments, where users connected via a user with the name of `citus`.
By default postgres put the username on the search_path. To be able to read the catalog in the `citus` schema we would need to grant access permissions to the schema. This caused newly created objects like tables etc, to default to this schema for creation. This failed due to the write permissions to that schema.
With this change we move the `pg_dist_object` catalog table to the `pg_catalog` schema, where our other schema's are also located. This makes the catalog table visible and readable by any user, like our other catalog tables, for debugging purposes.
Note: due to the change of schema, we had to disable 1 test that was running into a discrepancy between the schema and binary. Secondly, we needed to make the lookup functions for the `pg_dist_object` relation and their indexes less strict on the fallback of the naming due to an other test that, due to an unfortunate cache invalidation, needed to lookup the relation again. This makes that we won't default to _only_ resolving from `pg_catalog` outside of upgrades.
* Notice when create_distributed_function called without params
* Move variable comments to top
* Add valid check for cache entry
* add objtype to notice msg
* update test outputs
* Add more tests
* Address feedback
And also citus_calculate_gpid(nodeId,pid). These UDFs are just
wrappers for the existing functions. Useful for testing and simple
manipulation of citus_stat_activity.
Clusters created pre-Citus 11 mostly didn't have metadata sync enabled.
For those clusters, we add a utility UDF which fixes some minor issues
and sync the necessary objects to the workers.
DESCRIPTION: Add GUC to control ddl creation behaviour in transactions
Historically we would _not_ propagate objects when we are in a transaction block. Creation of distributed tables would not always work in sequential mode, hence objects created in the same transaction as distributing a table that would use the just created object wouldn't work. The benefit was that the user could still benefit from parallelism.
Now that the creation of distributed tables is supported in sequential mode it would make sense for users to force transactional consistency of ddl commands for distributed tables. A transaction could switch more aggressively to sequential mode when creating new objects in a transaction.
We don't change the default behaviour just yet.
Also, many objects would not even propagate their creation when the transaction was already set to sequential, leaving the probability of a self deadlock. The new policy checks solve this discrepancy between objects as well.
The issue in question is caused when rebalance / replication call `FullShardPlacementList` which returns all shard placements (including those in disabled nodes with `citus_disable_node`). Eventually, `FindFillStateForPlacement` looks for the state across active workers and fails to find a state for the placements which are in the disabled workers causing a seg fault shortly after.
Approach:
* `ActivePlacementHash` was not using the status of the shard placement's node to determine if the node it is active. Initially, I just fixed that.
* Additionally, I refactored the code which handles active shards in replication / rebalance to:
* use a single function to determine if a shard placement is active.
* do the shard active shard filtering before calling `RebalancePlacementUpdates` and `ReplicationPlacementUpdates`, so test methods like `shard_placement_rebalance_array` and `shard_placement_replication_array` which have different shard placement active requirements can do their own filtering while using the same rebalance / replicate logic that `rebalance_table_shards` and `replicate_table_shards` use.
Fix#5664
#5685 introduced the resolution of dependencies for indices. This missed support for indices on partitioned tables. This change adds support for partitioned indices to the dependency resolution code.
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.
* When a worker tried to create a collation which had a dependency in the same worker node,
it would cause a deadlock, now it throws the correct "not a coordinator" error.
DESCRIPTION: Implement TEXT SEARCH CONFIGURATION propagation
The change adds support to Citus for propagating TEXT SEARCH CONFIGURATION objects. TSConfig objects cannot always be created in one create statement, and instead require a create statement followed by many alter statements to get turned into the object they should represent.
To support this we add functionality to the worker to create or replace objects based on a list of statements. When the lists of the local object and the remote object correspond 1:1 we skip the creation of the object and simply mark it distributed. This is especially important for TSConfig objects as initdb pre-populates databases with a dozen configurations (for many different languages).
When the user creates a new TSConfig based on the copy of an existing configuration there is no direct link to the object copied from. Since there is no link we can't simply rely on propagating the dependencies to the worker and send a qualified
DESCRIPTION: Prevent Citus table functions from being called on shards
The operations that guard against using shards are:
* Create Local Table
* Create distributed table (which affects reference table creation as well).
* I used a `ErrorIfRaltionIsKnownShard` instead of `ErrorIfIllegallyChangingKnownShard`.
`ErrorIfIllegallyChangingKnownShard` allows the operation if `citus.enable_manual_changes_to_shards`,
but I am not sure if it ever makes sense to create a distributed, reference, or citus local table out of a shard.
I tried to go over the code to identify other UDF-s where shards could be illegaly changed, but I could not find any other.
My knowledge of the codebase is not solid enough for me to say for sure.
Fixes#5610
With https://github.com/citusdata/citus/pull/5657, Citus uses
a fixed application_name while connecting to remote nodes
for internal purposes.
It means that we cannot allow users to override it via
citus.node_conninfo.
Implement #5649
Allow create_distributed_function() on functions owned by extensions
1) Only update pg_dist_object, and do not propagate CREATE FUNCTION.
2) Ensure corresponding extension is in pg_dist_object.
3) Verify if dependencies exist on the function they should resolve to the extension.
4) Impact on node-scaling: We build a list of ddl commands based on all objects in
pg_dist_object. We need to omit the ddl's for the extension-function, as it
will get propagated by the virtue of the extension creation.
5) Extra checks for functions coming from extensions, to not propagate changes
via ddl commands, even though the function is marked as distributed in pg_dist_object
If the expression is simple, such as, SELECT function() or PEFORM function()
in PL/PgSQL code, PL engine does a simple expression evaluation which can't
interpret the Citus CustomScan Node. Code checks for simple expressions when
executing an UDF but missed the DO-Block scenario, this commit fixes it.
Removed dependency for EnsureTableOwner. Also removed pg_fini() and columnar_tableam_finish() Still need to remove CheckCitusVersion dependency to make Columnar_tableam.h dependency free from Citus.
Previously, we were wrapping targetlist nodes with Vars that reference
to the result of the worker query, if the node itself is not `Const` or
not a `Param`. Indeed, we should not do that unless the node itself is
a `Var` node or contains a `Var` within it (e.g.: `OpExpr(Var(column_a) > 2)`).
Otherwise, when worker query returns empty result set, then combine
query exec would crash since the `Var` would be pointing to an empty
tuple slot, which is not desirable for the node-executor methods.
Replaces citus.enable_object_propagation with citus.enable_metadata_sync
Also, within Citus 11 release cycle, we added citus.enable_metadata_sync_by_default,
that is also replaced with citus.enable_metadata_sync.
In essence, when citus.enable_metadata_sync is set to true, all the objects
and the metadata is send to the remote node.
We strongly advice that the users never changes the value of
this GUC.
With this commit, rebalancer backends are identified by application_name = citus_rebalancer
and the regular internal backends are identified by application_name = citus_internal
With this commit we've started to propagate sequences and shell
tables within the object dependency resolution. So, ensuring any
dependencies for any object will consider shell tables and sequences
as well. Separate logics for both shell tables and sequences have
been removed.
Since both shell tables and sequences logic were implemented as a
part of the metadata handling before that logic, we were propagating
them while syncing table metadata. With this commit we've divided
metadata (which means anything except shards thereafter) syncing
logic into multiple parts and implemented it either as a part of
ActivateNode. You can check the functions called in ActivateNode
to check definition of different metadata.
Definitions of start_metadata_sync_to_node and citus_activate_node
have also been updated. citus_activate_node will basically create
an active node with all metadata and reference table shards.
start_metadata_sync_to_node will be same with citus_activate_node
except replicating reference tables. stop_metadata_sync_to_node
will remove all the metadata. All of those UDFs need to be called
by superuser.
With https://github.com/citusdata/citus/pull/2780, we allow
COPY to use any number of connections that the executor used
in a tx block.
Meaning that, while COPYing data to the shards, create_distributed_table
could allow sequential mode.
We fall back to local execution if we cannot establish any more
connections to local node. However, we should not do that for the
commands that we don't know how to execute locally (or we know we
shouldn't execute locally). To fix that, we take localExecutionSupported
take into account in CanFailoverPlacementExecutionToLocalExecution too.
Moreover, we also prompt a more accurate hint message to inform user
about whether the execution is failed because local execution is
disabled by them, or because local execution wasn't possible for given
command.

This also fixes a minor issue: Properly handle expressions+parameters in distribution arguments
* Removed distributed dependency in columnar_metadata.c

* removed distributed/commands.h dependency
* Made columnar_tableam.c dependency-free
* Fixed spacing for columnar_store_memory_stats function
* indentation fix
* fixed test failures
* Require superuser while activating a node
With this change, we require ActiveNode() (hence citus_add_node(),
citus_activate_node()) explicitly require for a superuser.
Before this commit, these functions were designed to work with
non-superuser roles with the relevent GRANTs given.
However, that is not a widely used way for calling the functions
above.
Due to possibility of non-super user calling the UDFs, they were
designed in a way that some commands were using some additional
short-lived superuser connections. That is:
(a) breaking transactional behavior (e.g., ROLLBACK
wouldn't fully rollback the whole transaction)
(b) Making it very complicated to reason about which
parts of the node activation goes over which connections,
and becoming vulnerable to deadlocks / visibility issues.
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.
Dropping sequences means we need to recreate
and hence losing the sequence.
With this commit, we keep the existing sequences
such that resyncing wouldn't drop the sequence.
We do that by breaking the dependency of the sequence
from the table.
Before this commit, Citus was triggering metadata syncing
in the background when a function is distributed. However,
with Citus 11, we expect all clusters to have metadata synced
enabled. So, we do not expect any nodes not to have the metadata.
This change:
(a) pro: simplifies the code and opens up possibilities
to simplify futher by reducing the scope of
bg worker to only sync node metadata
(b) pro: explicitly asks users to sync the metadata such that
any unforseen impact can be easily detected
(c) con: For distributed functions without distribution
argument, we do not necessarily require the metadata
sycned. However, for completeness and simplicity, we
do so.
With Citus 11, the default behavior is to sync the metadata.
However, partitioned tables created pre-Citus 11 might have
index names that are not compatiable with metadata syncing.
See https://github.com/citusdata/citus/issues/4962 for the
details.
With this commit, we record the existence of partitioned tables
such that we can fix it later if any exists.
With this commit, fix_partition_shard_index_names()
works significantly faster.
For example,
32 shards, 365 partitions, 5 indexes drop from ~120 seconds to ~44 seconds
32 shards, 1095 partitions, 5 indexes drop from ~600 seconds to ~265 seconds
`queryStringList` can be really long, because it may contain #partitions * #indexes entries.
Before this change, we were actually going through the executor where each command
in the query string triggers 1 round trip per entry in queryStringList.
The aim of this commit is to avoid the round-trips by creating a single query string.
I first simply tried sending `q1;q2;..;qn` . However, the executor is designed to
handle `q1;q2;..;qn` type of query executions via the infrastructure mentioned
above (e.g., by tracking the query indexes in the list and doing 1 statement
per round trip).
One another option could have been to change the executor such that only track
the query index when `queryStringList` is provided not with queryString
including multiple `;`s . That is (a) more work (b) could cause weird edge
cases with failure handling (c) felt like coding a special case in to the executor
