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.
When run_test.py is run for an upgrade_.*_after.sql then, then
automatically run the corresponding uprade_.*_before.sql file first.
This is because all those upgrade_.*_after.sql files depend on the
objects created in upgrade_.*_before.sql files by definition.
Decide core distribution params in CreateCitusTable to reduce the
chances of
creating Citus tables based on incorrect combinations of distribution
method
and replication model params.
Also introduce DistributedTableParams struct to encapsulate the
parameters
that are specific to distributed tables.
So that we can run the tests that require fake_fdw by using minimal
schedule too.
Also move multi_create_fdw.sql up in multi_1_schedule to make it
available to more tests.
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.
Split the main logic that allows creating a Citus table into the
internal function CreateCitusTable().
Old CreateDistributedTable() function was assuming that it's creating
a reference table when the distribution method is DISTRIBUTE_BY_NONE.
However, soon this won't be the case when adding support for creating
single-shard distributed tables because their distribution method would
also be the same.
Now the internal method CreateCitusTable() doesn't make any assumptions
about table's replication model or such. Instead, it expects callers to
properly set all such metadata bits.
Even more, some of the parameters the old CreateDistributedTable() takes
--such as the shard count-- were not meaningful for a reference table,
and would be the same as for new table type.
DESCRIPTION: Fixes a bug in shard copy operations.
For copying shards in both shard move and shard split operations, Citus
uses the COPY statement.
A COPY all statement in the following form
` COPY target_shard FROM STDIN;`
throws an error when there is a GENERATED column in the shard table.
In order to fix this issue, we need to exclude the GENERATED columns in
the COPY and the matching SELECT statements. Hence this fix converts the
COPY and SELECT all statements to the following form:
```
COPY target_shard (col1, col2, ..., coln) FROM STDIN;
SELECT (col1, col2, ..., coln) FROM source_shard;
```
where (col1, col2, ..., coln) does not include a GENERATED column.
GENERATED column values are created in the target_shard as the values
are inserted.
Fixes#6705.

DESCRIPTION: Adds logic to distribute unbalanced shards
If the number of shard placements (for a colocation group) is less than
the number of workers, it means that some of the workers will remain
empty. With this PR, we consider these shard groups as a colocation
group, in order to make them be distributed evenly as much as possible
across the cluster.
Example:
```sql
create table t1 (a int primary key);
create table t2 (a int primary key);
create table t3 (a int primary key);
set citus.shard_count =1;
select create_distributed_table('t1','a');
select create_distributed_table('t2','a',colocate_with=>'t1');
select create_distributed_table('t3','a',colocate_with=>'t2');
create table tb1 (a bigint);
create table tb2 (a bigint);
select create_distributed_table('tb1','a');
select create_distributed_table('tb2','a',colocate_with=>'tb1');
select citus_add_node('localhost',9702);
select rebalance_table_shards();
```
Here we have two colocation groups, each with one shard group. Both
shard groups are placed on the first worker node. When we add a new
worker node and try to rebalance table shards, the rebalance planner
considers it well balanced and does nothing. With this PR, the
rebalancer tries to distribute these shard groups evenly across the
cluster as much as possible. For this example, with this PR, the
rebalancer moves one of the shard groups to the second worker node.
fixes: #6715
DESCRIPTION: Correctly report shard size in citus_shards view
When looking at citus_shards, people are interested in the actual size
that all the data related to the shard takes up on disk.
`pg_total_relation_size` is the function to use for that purpose. The
previously used `pg_relation_size` does not include indexes or TOAST.
Especially the missing toast can have enormous impact on the size of the
shown data.
With this small change, arbitrary config tests can have multiple acceptable correct outputs.
For an arbitrary config tests named `t`, now you can define `expected/t.out`, `expected/t_0.out`, `expected/t_1.out` etc and the test will succeed if the output of `sql/t.sql` is equal to any of the `t.out` or `t_{0, 1, ...}.out` files.
First of all, we set next_shard_id for single_node_truncate.sql
because shard ids in the test output were changing whenever we
modify a prior test file, such as single_node.sql.
Then the flaky test detector started complaining about
single_node_truncate.sql. We fix that by specifying the correct
test dependency for it in run_test.py. We also do the same for
single_node.sql.

2 improvements to prevent memory leaks during altering or undistributing
distributed tables with a lot of partitions and shards:
1. Free memory for each call to ConvertTable so that colocated and partition tables at
`AlterDistributedTable`, `UndistributeTable`, or
`AlterTableSetAccessMethod` will not cause an increase
in memory usage,
2. Free memory while executing attach partition commands for each partition table at
`AlterDistributedTable` to prevent an increase in memory usage.
DESCRIPTION: Fixes memory leak issue during altering distributed table
with a lot of partition and shards.
Fixes https://github.com/citusdata/citus/issues/6503.
Recently, I changed Python execution structure into virtual. Therefore,
now there is no need change built in python for the images. Since Github
is provisioning images with specific permissions, this issue caused
error.
With this PR, I removed unnecessary installation of pip and setuptools
in container docker image
Additionally, removed some unnecessary sudos and used ap-get instead of
apt in one place
In #6718 I accidentally added Python type hint syntax that was only
supported on Python 3.10. Our CI uses 3.9, so this PR changes that to a
syntax that's supported on 3.9 too.
We have memory leak during distribution of a table with a lot of
partitions as we do not release memory at ExprContext until all
partitions are not distributed. We improved 2 things to resolve the
issue:
1. We create and delete MemoryContext for each call to
`CreateDistributedTable` by partitions,
2. We rebuild the cache after we insert all the placements instead of
each placement for a shard.

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.
We should not omit to free PGResult when we receive single tuple result
from an internal backend.
Single tuple results are normally freed by our ReceiveResults for
`tupleDescriptor != NULL` flow but not for those with `tupleDescriptor
== NULL`. See PR #6722 for details.
DESCRIPTION: Fixes memory leak issue with query results that returns
single row.
O Simple fix is to add ORDER BY to have definitive results.
O Add search_path explicitly after reconnecting, this avoids creating objects in public schema
which prevents us from repetitive running of tests.
O multi_mx_modification is not designed to run repetitive, so isolate it.
A branch that touches a set of upgrade scripts is also expected to touch
corresponding downgrade scripts as well. To ensure that I introduce a
new CI script. If this script fails, read the output and make sure you
update the downgrade scripts in the printed list.
