PG 15 added support for that (d6f96ed94e73052f99a2e545ed17a8b2fdc1fb8a).
We also add support, but we already do not support ON DELETE SET NULL/DEFAULT
for distribution column. So, in essence, we add support for reference tables
and Citus local tables.
The logical replication catchup part for shard splits and shard moves is
very similar. This abstracts most of that similarity away into a single
function. This also improves the logic for non blocking shard splits a
bit, by using faster foreign key creation. It also parallelizes index creation
which shard moves were already doing, but shard splits did not.
DESCRIPTION: Add infrastructure to run long running management operations in background
This infrastructure introduces the primitives of jobs and tasks.
A task consists of a sql statement and an owner. Tasks belong to a
Job and can depend on other tasks from the same job.
When there are either runnable or running tasks we would like to
make sure a bacgrkound task queue monitor process is running. A Task
could be in running state while there is actually no monitor present
due to a database restart or failover. Once the monitor starts it
will reset any running task to its runnable state.
To make sure only one background task queue monitor is ever running
at once it will acquire an advisory lock that self conflicts.
Once a task is done it will find all tasks depending on this task.
After checking that the task doesn't have unmet dependencies it will
transition the task from blocked to runnable state for the task to
be picked up on a subsequent task start.
Currently only one task can be running at a time. This can be
improved upon in later releases without changes to the higher level
API.
The initial goal for this background tasks is to allow a rebalance
to run in the background. This will be implemented in a subsequent PR.
Previously we would create foreign keys to reference table in an extra
fast way at the end of a shard move. This uses that same logic to also
do it for foreign keys between distributed tables.
Fixes#6141
Introduces a new GUC named citus.skip_constraint_validation, which basically skips constraint validation when set to on.
For some several places that we hack to skip the foreign key validation phase, now we use this GUC.
DESCRIPTION:
This PR adds support for 'Deferred Drop' and robust 'Shard Cleanup' for Splits.
Common Infrastructure
This PR introduces new common infrastructure so as any operation that wants robust cleanup of resources can register with the cleaner and have the resources cleaned appropriately based on a specified policy. 'Shard Split' is the first consumer using this new infrastructure.
Note : We only support adding 'shards' as resources to be cleaned-up right now but the framework will be extended to support other resources in future.
Deferred Drop for Split
Deferred Drop Support ensures that shards undergoing split are not dropped inline as part of operation but dropped later when no active read queries are running on shard. This helps with :
Avoids any potential deadlock scenarios that can cause long running Split operation to rollback.
Avoids Split operation blocking writes and then getting blocked (due to running queries on the shard) when trying to drop shards.
Deferred drop is the new default behavior going forward.
Shard Cleaner Extension
Shard Cleaner is a background task responsible for deferred drops in case of 'Move' operations.
The cleaner has been extended to ensure robust cleanup of shards (dummy shards and split children) in case of a failure based on the new infrastructure mentioned above. The cleaner also handles deferred drop for 'Splits'.
TESTING:
New test ''citus_split_shard_by_split_points_deferred_drop' to test deferred drop support.
New test 'failure_split_cleanup' to test shard cleanup with failures in different stages.
Update 'isolation_blocking_shard_split and isolation_non_blocking_shard_split' for deferred drop.
Added non-deferred drop version of existing tests : 'citus_split_shard_no_deferred_drop' and 'citus_non_blocking_splits_no_deferred_drop'
* Fix issue : 6109 Segfault or (assertion failure) is possible when using a SQL function
* DESCRIPTION: Ensures disallowing the usage of SQL functions referencing to a distributed table and prevents a segfault.
Using a SQL function may result in segmentation fault in some cases.
This change fixes the issue by throwing an error message when a SQL function cannot be handled.
Fixes#6109.

PG15 allows numeric scale to be negative or greater than precision. This
causes issues and we may end up routing queries to a wrong shard due to
differing hash results after rounding.
Formerly, when specifying NUMERIC(precision, scale), the scale had to be
in the range [0, precision], which was per SQL spec. PG15 extends the
range of allowed scales to [-1000, 1000].
A negative scale implies rounding before the decimal point. For
example, a column might be declared with a scale of -3 to round values
to the nearest thousand. Note that the display scale remains
non-negative, so in this case the display scale will be zero, and all
digits before the decimal point will be displayed.
Relevant PG commit: 085f931f52494e1f304e35571924efa6fcdc2b44
Pre PG15, renaming child triggers on partitions is allowed. When
creating a trigger in a distributed parent partitioned table, the
triggers on the shards of the partitions have the same name with
the triggers on the corresponding parent shards of the parent
table. Therefore, they don't have the same appended shard id as
the shard id of the partition. Hence, when trying to rename a
child trigger on a partition of a distributed table, we can't
correctly find the triggers on the shards of the partition in
order to rename them since we append a different shard id to the
name of the trigger. Since we can't find the trigger we get a
misleading error of inexistent trigger.
In this commit we prohibit renaming child triggers on distributed
partitions altogether.
PRE PG15, Renaming the parent triggers on partitioned tables doesn't
recurse to renaming the child triggers on the partitions as well.
In PG15, Renaming triggers on partitioned tables
recurses to renaming the triggers on the partitions as well.
Add an upgrade test to make sure we are not breaking anything
with distributed triggers on distributed partitioned tables.

Before, this was the default mode for CustomScan providers.
Now, the default is to assume that they can't project.
This causes performance penalties due to adding unnecessary
Result nodes.
Hence we use the newly added flag, CUSTOMPATH_SUPPORT_PROJECTION
to get it back to how it was.
In PG15 support branch we created explain functions to ignore
the new Result nodes, so we undo that in this commit.

Sometimes in CI our multi_utilities test fails like this:
```diff

Apparently VACUUM is not as reliable in cleaning up as we thought. This
increases the range of allowed values. Important to note is that the
range is still completely outside of the allowed range of the initial
size. So we know for sure that some data was cleaned up.
Sometimes in CI our adaptive_executor test would fail randomly with the
following error:

This means that the low slow start interval did not have any effect on
the number of connections being opened. I could see two possibilities
for this to happen:
1. CI was slow and actually doing the start of the second connection. I
tried to solve this by doubling the time a query to the worker takes.
2. The second option is that the shards were queried in the oposite
order than we expect. This would mean that the first query to the
worker completes quickly because there's no, sleep because it doesn't
contain any rows. I tried to solve this option by adding a row to
each shard.
After trying to reproduce the random failure in CI it turned out that I
needed both of these fixes to resolve the random failure.
On CI our citus_split_shard_columnar_partitioned test would sometimes
randomly fail like this:
```diff

This is a harmless diff due to a missing column in the order by list.
This fixes that by adding the nodeport as a tiebreaker.
Added create_distributed_table_concurrently which is nonblocking variant of create_distributed_table.
It bases on the split API which takes advantage of logical replication to support nonblocking split operations.

For some reason the colocationid of the distributed partitioned table
would be one less than we expected. Why this happens I'm not sure, but
it seems fairly harmless that it does.
In an attempt to work around this flakyness I now reset the colocation
id sequence right before creating the table in question. This is good
practice in general, because it allows us to run the test successfully
using `check-minimal` and it also allows us to rerun it multiple times.
We currently do a `pg_relation_total_size('t1') + pg_relation_total_size('t2') + ..` on shard lists, especially when rebalancing the shards. This in some cases goes huge. With this PR, we basically use a SUM for all table sizes, instead of using thousands of pluses.
Sometimes in CI failure_online_move_shard_placement fails with the
following error:
```diff

This error is not completely harmless, because based on the logs it mean
that our cleanup logic failed, which in turn means that replication
slots are left around:
```
2022-08-24 16:01:29.247 UTC [1219] ERROR: XX000: tuple concurrently updated
2022-08-24 16:01:29.247 UTC [1219] LOCATION: simple_heap_update, heapam.c:4179
2022-08-24 16:01:29.247 UTC [1219] STATEMENT: ALTER SUBSCRIPTION citus_shard_move_subscription_10 DISABLE
```
However, we have other mechanisms to clean up any leftovers in case of a
failed cleanup. So it's not that big of a problem.
The reason we run into this error is arguably because of a Postgres bug,
so I created a patch for Postgres that fixes this.
While we wait for this (or a similar) patch to be merged, this PR
disables the flaky test. There's still a test that tests in case of a
connection "kill" instead of a "cancel", so I don't think we lose very
important coverage by disabling this test. When trying to reproduce this
I only hit this issue in the cancel case, so I don't think there's a
need to disable the kill case for now.
In CI sometimes failure_connection_establishment would fail with the
following error:
```diff
-- cancel all connections to this node
SELECT citus.mitmproxy('conn.onAuthenticationOk().cancel(' || pg_backend_pid() || ')');
- mitmproxy

+PL/pgSQL function citus.mitmproxy(text) line 11 at EXECUTE
SELECT * FROM citus_check_cluster_node_health();
```
The reason for this is that the mitm command that was used is very
broad and doesn't actually do what the comment says. What happens is
that if any connection is made, the current backend is cancelled, which
is not the always the same as the backend that made the connection. My
assessment is that likely the maintenance daemon makes a connection to
the node while we are executing the mitmproxy command. The mitmproxy
command goes through, and then triggers a cancel of itself due to the
connection made by the maintenance daemon.
This PR simply removes this test, since it doesn't seem to test what it
intended to test anyway. There's also still the "kill" version of this
test, which does do the intended thing. So I don't think we lose
important coverage by removing this test.
Sometimes in CI multi_transaction_recovery would fail with the following
error:
```diff

The reason for this was that when choosing `selected_shard` we didn't
ensure that it was actually located on the node that we were moving it
from. Instead we simply picked the first shard for the table that was
returned by the query.
To fix this issue this PR adds a filter to only choose shards that are
located on the intended node.
In CI multi_utilities would sometimes fail randomly with this error:
```diff

This is a harmless change in output where the relation size after
vacuuming was slightly more than we expected. This changes the size
checks for the local_vacuum_table to allow a wider range of values.
It uses the same trick as #6216 to show the actual value when it's
outside this valid range, which is useful if this test ever starts
failing again.
When trying to fix#6245 I realized that multi_utilities was leaking
some tables that it created during the test. This fixes that by
creating all these tables in a schema that's dedicated for this test.
When running `make check-base` locally it would fail with two different
errors.
The first one was this:
```diff
SELECT create_distributed_table('pg_class', 'relname');
-ERROR: cannot create a citus table from a catalog table
+ERROR: deadlock detected

+HINT: See server log for query details.
SELECT create_reference_table('pg_class');
```
This happened because multi_behavioral_analytics_create_table and
multi_create_table were being run in parallel. Running them separately
resolved this issue.
The second one was this:
```diff
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION wait_until_metadata_sync(timeout INTEGER DEFAULT 15000)

+ERROR: duplicate key value violates unique constraint "pg_proc_proname_args_nsp_index"
+DETAIL: Key (proname, proargtypes, pronamespace)=(wait_until_metadata_sync, 23, 2200) already exists.
-- Add some helper functions for sending commands to mitmproxy
```
Which was because failure_test_helpers and multi_test_helpers were
trying to create the same function at the exact same time. The easy fix
here is to simply not create this function in the failure_test_helpers
file. This is fine, because any test schedule that runs
failure_test_helpers also runs multi_test_helpers.

Postgres supports JSON_TABLE feature on PG 15.
We treat JSON_TABLE the same as correlated functions (e.g., recurring tuples).
In the end, for multi-shard JSON_TABLE commands, we apply the same
restrictions as reference tables (e.g., cannot be in the outer part of
an outer join etc.)

Previously we setting this configuration parameter
in the fly for failure tests schedule.
However, PG15 doesn't allow that anymore: reserved prefixes
like "citus" cannot be used to set non-existing GUCs.

* Handles EXPLAIN output diffs in PG15 - Extra result lines
To handle extra "Result" lines in explain outputs, we add explain
method to multi_test_helpers.sql file
- plan_without_result_lines() is added for cases where we want the
whole explain output with only "Result" lines removed
* Handles EXPLAIN output diffs in PG15, Hash Agg/Join leverage
To handle differences in usage of GroupAggregate vs HashAggregate
or Merge Join vs Hash join in cases where this detail doesn't
seem to matter, we use coordinator_plan().
- coordinator_plan() is updated to remove "Result" lines
There are some cases where we have subplans so we add a new
function that prints all Task Count lines as well
- coordinator_plan_with_subplans()

* Normalizes Memory Usage, Buckets, Batches for PG15 explain diffs
We create a new function in multi_test_helpers, which is similar
to explain_merge function in PG15. This explain helper function
normalies Memory Usage, Buckets and Batches, and we use it in the
tests which give a different output for PG15.

* Handles EXPLAIN output diffs in PG15: extra arrows&result lines
To handle extra "->" arrows resulting from extra Result lines
in explain outputs, we add the following explain method to
multi_test_helpers.sql file
- plan_without_arrows() is added for cases where we want the
whole explain output without arrows and without Result lines
* Alters public schema's owner to pg_database_owner in PG15
In PG15, public schema is owned by pg_database_owner role.
In multi_extension, we drop and recreate the ppublic schema,
hence its owner become the default user in our tests, postgres.
Change that to pg_database_owner for PG15 consistency.
This results in alternative test output for public schema grants
in the following test:
grant_on_schema_propagation.sql

* Fixes columnar tap tests for PG15
In PG15, Perl test modules have been moved to a new namespace.
Also, postgres node new() and get_new_node() methods have been
unified to one method: new()
We create separate tap tests for PG13/14 and PG15+
and update the Makefiles accordingly.

In CI multi_replicate_reference_table would sometimes fail like this:
```diff
-- detects correctly that referecence table doesn't have replica identity
SELECT replicate_reference_tables();
-ERROR: cannot use logical replication to transfer shards of the relation initially_not_replicated_reference_table since it doesn't have a REPLICA IDENTITY or PRIMARY KEY
+ERROR: cannot use logical replication to transfer shards of the relation ref_table since it doesn't have a REPLICA IDENTITY or PRIMARY KEY
DETAIL: UPDATE and DELETE commands on the shard will error out during logical replication unless there is a REPLICA IDENTITY or PRIMARY KEY.
HINT: If you wish to continue without a replica identity set the shard_transfer_mode to 'force_logical' or 'block_writes'.
```
Because `CitusTableTypeIdList` returns tables in heap order so it's
a bit random which one is first in the list. And the test contained
multiple tables that didn't have a primary key or replica identity. So
it made sense that the error could be for either one of these tables.
This PR makes the test output consistent by changing one of the tables
to have a primary key.
Example of failing test: https://app.circleci.com/pipelines/github/citusdata/citus/26387/workflows/fc3196e7-ddf2-4000-a70b-5ac71c836321/jobs/748940
Using binary encoding can save a lot of CPU cycles, both on the sender
and on the receiver. Since the walsender and walreceiver processes are
single threaded, this can matter a lot for the throughput if they are
bottlenecked on CPU.
This feature is only available in PG14, not PG13. It should be safe to
always enable because it's only used for types that support binary
encoding according to the PG docs:
> Even when this option is enabled, only data types that have binary
> send and receive functions will be transferred in binary.
But in case it causes problems, it can still be disabled by setting
`citus.enable_binary_protocol` to `false`.
In CI our failure_connection_establishment sometimes failed randomly
with the following error:
```diff
-- verify a connection attempt was made to the intercepted node, this would have cause the
-- connection to have been delayed and thus caused a timeout
SELECT * FROM citus.dump_network_traffic() WHERE conn=0;
conn | source | message
------+--------+---------
- 0 | coordinator | [initial message]
-(1 row)
+(0 rows)
SELECT citus.mitmproxy('conn.allow()');
```

The way I fixed this was by removing the dump_network_traffic call. This
might sound simple, but doing this while continuing to let the test
serve its intended purpose required quite some more changes.
This dump_network_traffic call was there because we didn't want to show
warnings in the queries above, because the exact warnings were not
reliable. The main reason this error was not reliable was because we
were using round-robin task assignment. We did the same query twice, so
that it would hit the node with the intercepted connection in one of
those connections. Instead of doing that I'm now using the
"first-replica" policy and do the queries only once. This works, because
the first placements by placementid for each of the used tables are on
the second node, so first-replica will cause the first connection to go
there.
This solved most of the flakyness, but when confirming that the
flakyness was fixed I found some additional errors:
```diff
-- show that INSERT failed
SELECT citus.mitmproxy('conn.allow()');
mitmproxy
-----------
(1 row)
SELECT count(*) FROM single_replicatated WHERE key = 100;
- count
----------------------------------------------------------------------

+ERROR: could not establish any connections to the node localhost:9060 after 400 ms
RESET client_min_messages;
```

I addressed this with a combination of two things:
1. Only change citus.node_connection_timeout for the queries that we
want to test timeout behaviour for. When those queries are done I
reset the value to the default again.
2. Change our mitm framework to only delay the initial connection packet
instead of all packets. I think sometimes a follow on packet of a previous
connection attempt was causing the next connection attempt to be delayed
even if `conn.allow()` was already called. For our tests we only care about
connection timeouts, so there's no reason to delay any other packets than
the initial connection packet.
Then there was some last flakyness in the exact error that was given:
```diff
-- tests for connectivity checks
SELECT name FROM r1 WHERE id = 2;
WARNING: could not establish any connections to the node localhost:9060 after 900 ms
+WARNING: connection to the remote node localhost:9060 failed with the following error:

I don't have a good explaination for this slight change in error message, but
given that it is missing the actual error message I expected this to be related
to some small difference in timing: e.g. the server responding to the connection
attempt right after the coordinator determined that the connection timed out.
To solve this last flakyness I increased the connection timeouts and made the
difference between the timeout and the delay a bit bigger. With these tweaks
I wasn't able to reproduce this error on CI anymore.
Finally, I made most of the same changes to failure_failover_to_local_execution,
since it was using the `conn.delay()` mitm method too. The only change that
I left out was the timing increase, since it might not be strictly necessary and
increases time it takes to run the test. If this test ever becomes flaky the first
thing we should try is increase its timeout.
The failure_single_select test would sometimes fail with an error that's
similar to this:
```diff
-- cancel after first SELECT; txn should fail and nothing should be marked as invalid
SELECT citus.mitmproxy('conn.onQuery(query="^SELECT").cancel(' || pg_backend_pid() || ')');
- mitmproxy
----------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-(1 row)
-
+ERROR: canceling statement due to user request

+PL/pgSQL function citus.mitmproxy(text) line 11 at EXECUTE
BEGIN;
```
This error looked very to the one from #6217 and indeed the cause turned
out to be similar. Because we were canceling all SELECT queries, we
would actually sometimes cancel our mitmproxy SELECT queries itself.
This puts some additional restrictions on the queries that we cancel,
most importantly it should contain the name of the table that we're
selecting from.
I was able to reproduce the original issue locally pretty reliably. With
the changes in this PR it didn't happen again.
In passing this also changes one other failure test that was cancelling
all selects and puts similar additional restrictions on those
cancellations.
