This change fixes the random failures on Travis, which is a bug introduced
with citus/#1124. Before this fix, travis was failing randomly on `check_multi_mx`
test schedule, specifically in the parallel group of `multi_mx_metadata`,
'multi_mx_modifications` and `multi_mx_modifying_xacts` tests. This change fixes this
by serializing these three test cases.
This change allows users to drop sequences on MX workers. Previously, Citus didn't allow dropping
sequences on MX workers because it could cause shards to be dropped if `DROP SEQUENCE ... CASCADE`
is used. We now allow that since allowing sequence creation but not dropping hurts user experience
and also may cause problems with custom Citus solutions.
Updated to the README.md to reflect newer product features.
* Include references to the multi-tenant use case
* Minor update to tutorial link to include 6.0
* Minor update to Contributing guidelines (we haven't used #helpwanted tags over the past year)
* Minor update to remove link to support & training
- Break CheckShardPlacements into multiple functions (The most important
is MarkFailedShardPlacements), so that we can get rid of the global
CoordinatedTransactionUses2PC.
- Call MarkFailedShardPlacements in the router executor, so we mark
shards as invalid and stop using them while inside transaction blocks.
With this change DropShards function started to use new connection API. DropShards
function is used by DROP TABLE, master_drop_all_shards and master_apply_delete_command,
therefore all of these functions now support transactional operations. In DropShards
function, if we cannot reach a node, we mark shard state of related placements as
FILE_TO_DELETE and continue to drop remaining shards; however if any error occurs after
establishing the connection, we ROLLBACK whole operation.
Before this change, when a transaction failed, we update related placements shard states
to FILE_INACTIVE during XACT_EVENT_PRE_COMMIT. However that means if another code block
changed shard state to something else (e.g. FILE_TO_DELETE) before XACT_EVENT_PRE_COMMIT
we overwrite that. To prevent that problem, in case of failure we started to change
shard state, only if its current shard state is FILE_FINALIZED.
This UDF returns a shard placement from cache given shard id and placement id. At the
moment it iterates over all shard placements of given shard by ShardPlacementList and
searches given placement id in that list, which is not a good solution performance-wise.
However, currently, this function will be used only when there is a failed transaction.
If a need arises we can optimize this function in the future.
All router, real-time, task-tracker plannable queries should now have
full prepared statement support (and even use router when possible),
unless they don't go through the custom plan interface (which
basically just affects LANGUAGE SQL (not plpgsql) functions).
This is achieved by forcing postgres' planner to always choose a
custom plan, by assigning very low costs to plans with bound
parameters (i.e. ones were the postgres planner replanned the query
upon EXECUTE with all parameter values provided), instead of the
generic one.
This requires some trickery, because for custom plans to work the
costs for a non-custom plan have to be known, which means we can't
error out when planning the generic plan. Instead we have to return a
"faux" plan, that'd trigger an error message if executed. But due to
the custom plan logic that plan will likely (unless called by an SQL
function, or because we can't support that query for some reason) not
be executed; instead the custom plan will be chosen.
So far router planner had encapsulated different functionality in
MultiRouterPlanCreate. Modifications always go through router, selects
sometimes. Modifications always error out if the query is unsupported,
selects return NULL. Especially the error handling is a problem for
the upcoming extension of prepared statement support.
Split MultiRouterPlanCreate into CreateRouterPlan and
CreateModifyPlan, and change them to not throw errors.
Instead errors are now reported by setting the new
MultiPlan->plannigError.
Callers of router planner functionality now have to throw errors
themselves if desired, but also can skip doing so.
This is a pre-requisite for expanding prepared statement support.
While touching all those lines, improve a number of error messages by
getting them closer to the postgres error message guidelines.
The name CreatePhysicalPlan() hasn't been accurate for a while, and
the split of work between multi_planner() and CreatePhysicalPlan()
doesn't seem perfect. So rename to CreateDistributedPlan() and move a
bit more logic in there.
It can be useful, e.g. in the upcoming prepared statement support, to
be able to return an error from a function that is not raised
immediately, but can later be thrown. That allows e.g. to attempt to
plan a statment using different methods and to create good error
messages in each planner, but to only error out after all planners
have been run.
To enable that create support for deferred error messages that can be
created (supporting errorcode, message, detail, hint) in one function,
and then thrown in different place.
This adds a replication_model GUC which is used as the replication
model for any new distributed table that is not a reference table.
With this change, tables with replication factor 1 are no longer
implicitly MX tables.
The GUC is similarly respected during empty shard creation for e.g.
existing append-partitioned tables. If the model is set to streaming
while replication factor is greater than one, table and shard creation
routines will error until this invalid combination is corrected.
Changing this parameter requires superuser permissions.
If any placements fail it doesn't update shard statistics on those placements.
A minor enabling refactor: Make CoordinatedTransactionUses2PC public (it used to be CoordinatedTransactionUse2PC but that symbol already existed, so renamed it as well)
We changed error message which appears when user tries to execute outer join command and
that command requires repartitioning. Old error message mentioned about 1-to-1 shard
partitioning which may not be clear to user.
