Citus build with PG16 fails because of the following warnings:
- using char* instead of Datum
- using pointer instead of oid
- candidate function for format attribute
- remove old definition from PG11 compatibility 62bf571ced
This commit fixes the above.
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.
DESCRIPTION: Drop `SHARD_STATE_TO_DELETE` and use the cleanup records
instead
Drops the shard state that is used to mark shards as orphaned. Now we
insert cleanup records into `pg_dist_cleanup` so "orphaned" shards will
be dropped either by maintenance daemon or internal cleanup calls. With
this PR, we make the "cleanup orphaned shards" functions to be no-op, as
they would not be needed anymore.
This PR includes some naming changes about placement functions. We don't
need functions that filter orphaned shards, as there will be no orphaned
shards anymore.
We will also be introducing a small script with this PR, for users with
orphaned shards. We'll basically delete the orphaned shard entries from
`pg_dist_placement` and insert cleanup records into `pg_dist_cleanup`
for each one of them, during Citus upgrade.
We also have a lot of flakiness fixes in this PR.

When using multiline strings, we occasionally forget to add a single
space at the end of the first line. When this line is concatenated with
the next one, the resulting string has a missing space.
DESCRIPTION: Allow citus_update_node() to work with nodes from different clusters
citus_update_node(), citus_nodename_for_nodeid(), and citus_nodeport_for_nodeid() functions only checked for nodes in their own clusters and hence last two returned NULLs and the first one showed an error is the nodeId was from a different cluster.
Fixes https://github.com/citusdata/citus/issues/6433
pg_dist_node and pg_dist_colocation have a primary key index, not a replica identity index.
Citus catalog tables are created in public schema, which has replica identity index by default
as primary key index. Later the citus catalog tables are moved to pg_catalog schema.
During pg_upgrade, all tables are recreated, and given that pg_dist_colocation is found in
pg_catalog schema, it is recreated in that schema, and when it is recreated it doesn't
have a replica identity index, because catalog tables have no replica identity.
Further action:
Do we even need to acquire this lock on the primary key index?
Postgres doesn't acquire such locks on indexes before deleting catalog tuples.
Also, catalog tuples don't have replica identities by definition.
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.

Do not obtain AccessShareLock before acquiring the distributed locks.
Acquiring an AccessShareLock ensures that the relations which we are trying to get a distributed lock on will not be dropped in the time between when the LOCK command is issued and the LOCK commands are send to the worker. However, this also leads to distributed deadlocks in such scenarios:
```sql
-- for dist lock acquiring order coor, w1, w2
-- on w2
LOCK t1 IN ACCESS EXLUSIVE MODE;
-- acquire AccessShareLock locally on t1 to ensure it is not dropped while we get ready to distribute the lock
-- concurrently on w1
LOCK t1 IN ACCESS EXLUSIVE MODE;
-- acquire AccessShareLock locally on t1 to ensure it is not dropped while we get ready to distribute the lock
-- acquire dist lock on coor, w1, gets blocked on local AccessShareLock on w2
-- on w2 continuation of the execution above
-- starts to acquire dist locks and gets blocked on the coor by the lock acquired by w1
-- distributed deadlock
```
We opt for avoiding such deadlocks with the cost of the possibility of running into errors when the relations on which we are trying to acquire locks on get dropped.
It is often useful to be able to sync the metadata in parallel
across nodes.
Also citus_finalize_upgrade_to_citus11() uses
start_metadata_sync_to_primary_nodes() after this commit.
Note that this commit does not parallelize all pieces of node
activation or metadata syncing. Instead, it tries to parallelize
potenially large parts of metadata, which is the objects and
distributed tables (in general Citus tables).
In the future, it would be nice to sync the reference tables
in parallel across nodes.
Create ~720 distributed tables / ~23450 shards
```SQL
-- declaratively partitioned table
CREATE TABLE github_events_looooooooooooooong_name (
event_id bigint,
event_type text,
event_public boolean,
repo_id bigint,
payload jsonb,
repo jsonb,
actor jsonb,
org jsonb,
created_at timestamp
) PARTITION BY RANGE (created_at);
SELECT create_time_partitions(
table_name := 'github_events_looooooooooooooong_name',
partition_interval := '1 day',
end_at := now() + '24 months'
);
CREATE INDEX ON github_events_looooooooooooooong_name USING btree (event_id, event_type, event_public, repo_id);
SELECT create_distributed_table('github_events_looooooooooooooong_name', 'repo_id');
SET client_min_messages TO ERROR;
```

In the past (pre-11), we allowed removing worker nodes
that had active placements for replicated distributed
table, without even checking if there are any other
replicas of the same placement.
However, with #5469, we prevent disabling nodes via a hard
error when there is the last active placement of shard, as we
do for reference tables. Note that otherwise, we'd allow
users to lose data.
As of today, the NOTICE is completely irrelevant.
First worker node has a special meaning for modifications on the replicated tables
It is used to acquire a remote lock, such that the modifications are serialized.
With this commit, we make sure that we do not let any distributed query to see a
different 'first worker node' while first worker node is disabled.
Note that, maybe implicitly mentioned above, when first worker node is disabled,
the first worker node changes, that's why we have to handle the situation.
Before this commit, we had:
```SQL
SELECT citus_disable_node(nodename, nodeport, force boolean DEFAULT false)
```
Where, we allow forcing to disable first worker node with
`force:=true`. However, it entails the risk for losing
data / diverging placement data etc.
With `force` flag, we control disabling the first worker node,
and with `async` flag we control whether the changes are done
via bg worker or immediately.
```SQL
SELECT citus_disable_node(nodename, nodeport, force boolean DEFAULT false, sync boolean DEFAULT false)
```
Where we can achieve all the following:
| Mode | Data loss possibility | Can run in 2PC | Handle multiple node failures | Immediately effective |
| --- |--- |--- |--- |--- |
| force:false, sync: false | false | true | true | false |
| force:false, sync: true | false | false | false | true |
| force:true, sync: false | true | true | true | false |
| force:true, sync: true | false | false | false | true |
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.
CitusInitiatedBackend was a pre-mature implemenation of the whole
GlobalPID infrastructure. We used it to track whether any individual
query is triggered by Citus or not.
As of now, after GlobalPID is already in place, we don't need
CitusInitiatedBackend, in fact it could even be wrong.
