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.
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.
* 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.
