If an operation requires having coordinator in pg_dist_node and if that
is not the case, then we automatically add the coordinator into
pg_dist_node if user didn't add any worker nodes yet.
However, if user have already added some worker nodes before, we throw
an error. With this commit, we improve the error thrown in that case.
Closes#6423 based on the discussion made there.

DESCRIPTION: Raises memory limits in columnar from 256MB to 1GB for
reads and writes
This doesn't completely fix#5918 but at least increases the
buffer limits that might cause throwing an error when reading
from or writing into into columnar storage. A way better approach
to fix this is documented in #6420.
Replacing memcpy_s with memcpy is quite safe in those places
since we anyway make sure to allocate enough amount of memory
before writing into related buffers.

Fixes https://github.com/citusdata/citus/issues/6394.
DESCRIPTION: Fixes a bug that causes creating disabled-triggers on
shards as enabled
Since CREATE TRIGGER doesn't have syntax support to specify
whether the trigger should be enabled/disabled, the underlying
PG function (`pg_get_triggerdef()`) that we use to generate the
command to create the trigger is not enough. For this reason, we
append a second command to enable/disable trigger, right after
creating it.
We don't retain explicit extension dependencies set by using
`ALTER trigger DEPENDS ON EXTENSION` commands too, but apparently
right fix for that is to throw an error as in
`PreprocessAlterTriggerDependsStmt()`; so, opened a separate PR
to fix that #6399.

DESCRIPTION: Fixes a bug that prevents retaining columnar table options
after a table-rewrite A fix for this issue: Columnar: options ignored
during ALTER TABLE rewrite #5927
The OID for the temporary table created during ALTER TABLE was not the
same as the original table's OID so the columnar options were not being
applied during rewrite.
The change is that I applied the original table's columnar options to
the new table so that it has the correct options during write. I also
added a test.
Cherry-pick from commit f21cbe68f8
During alter_distributed_table, we create a new table like the
original table but with the altered options.
To retrieve the name of the distribution column, we were using
the attribute syscache of the new table, since we already created
the new table as identical to the original table.
However, the attribute syscaches of these two tables are not
the same if the original table has dropped columns. The reason
is that dropped columns are all still present in the cache.
Hence, for example, the attnos would be different in the syscaches.
So, let's use the attribute syscache of the original table.
In Split, Logical replication logic and ShardCleaner we call
`SendCommandListToWorkerOutsideTransaction` and
`SendOptionalCommandListToWorkerOutsideTransaction` frequently. This
opens new connection for each of those calls, even though we already
have a perfectly good connection lying around.
This PR adds two new APIs
`SendCommandListToWorkerOutsideTransactionWithConnection` and
`SendOptionalCommandListToWorkerOutsideTransactionWithConnection` that
allow sending a list of queries in a transaction over an existing
connection. We also update the callers (Split, ShardCleaner, Logical
Replication) to use these new APIs instead.

(cherry picked from commit 24e06af6d2)
In Citus 11.1.0 we changed the order of doing the initial data copy and
the replica identity creation when doing a non blocking shard move. This
was done to try and increase the speed with which shard moves could be
done. But after doing more extensive performance testing this change
turned out to have a negative impact on the speed of moves on the setups
that I tested.
Looking at the resource usage metrics of the VMs the reason for this
seems to be that these shard moves were bottlenecked by disk bandwidth.
While creating replica identities in bulk after the initial copy will
reduce CPU usage a bit, it does require an additional sequence scan of
the just written data. So when a VM is bottlenecked on disk, it makes
sense to spend a little bit more CPU to avoid an additional scan. Since
PKs are usually simple indexes that don't require lots of CPU to update,
as opposed to e.g. GiST indexes.
This reverts the order change to avoid a regression on shard move speed
in these cases.
For future releases we might consider re-evaluating our index creation
order for other indexes too, and create "simple" indexes before the
copy.

Given that we drop DEFAULT nextval('sequence') expressions from
shard relation columns, allowing `ON DELETE/UPDATE SET DEFAULT`
on such columns might cause inserting NULL values as a result
of a delete/update operation.
For this reason, we disallow ON DELETE/UPDATE SET DEFAULT actions
on columns that default to sequences.

DESCRIPTION: Fixes dropping replication slots
As detected by a flaky test, Citus sometimes fails to drop replication
slots, possibly due to a race condition, at the end of a shard split.

consistently for 20 seconds.

DESCRIPTION: Improve logging during shard split and resource cleanup
### DESCRIPTION
This PR makes logging improvements to Shard Split :
1. Update confusing logging to fix#6312
2. Added new `ereport(LOG` to make debugging easier as part of telemetry review.
Comment from the code is clear on this:
/*
* The statistics objects of the distributed table are not relevant
* for the distributed planning, so we can override it.
*
* Normally, we should not need this. However, the combination of
* Postgres commit 269b532aef55a579ae02a3e8e8df14101570dfd9 and
* Citus function AdjustPartitioningForDistributedPlanning()
* forces us to do this. The commit expects statistics objects
* of partitions to have "inh" flag set properly. Whereas, the
* function overrides "inh" flag. To avoid Postgres to throw error,
* we override statlist such that Postgres does not try to process
* any statistics objects during the standard_planner() on the
* coordinator. In the end, we do not need the standard_planner()
* on the coordinator to generate an optimized plan. We call
* into standard_planner() for other purposes, such as generating the
* relationRestrictionContext here.
*
* AdjustPartitioningForDistributedPlanning() is a hack that we use
* to prevent Postgres' standard_planner() to expand all the partitions
* for the distributed planning when a distributed partitioned table
* is queried. It is required for both correctness and performance
* reasons. Although we can eliminate the use of the function for
* the correctness (e.g., make sure that rest of the planner can handle
* partitions), it's performance implication is hard to avoid. Certain
* planning logic of Citus (such as router or query pushdown) relies
* heavily on the relationRestrictionList. If
* AdjustPartitioningForDistributedPlanning() is removed, all the
* partitions show up in the, causing high planning times for
* such queries.

The PR introduces code changes to fix Issue
[6303](https://github.com/citusdata/citus/issues/6303)
`create_distributed_table_concurrently` following drop column, creates a
buggy situation in split decoder.
* Consider the below scenario:
* Session1 : Drop column followed by
create_distributed_table_concurrently
* Session2 : Concurrent insert workload
The child shards created by `create_distributed_table_concurrently` will
have less columns than the source shard because some column were
dropped. The incoming tuple from session2 will have more columns as the
writes happened on source shard. But now the tuple needs to be applied
on child shard. So we need to format existing tuple according to child
schema and skip dropped column values.
The PR fixes this by reformatting the tuple according the target child
schema.
Test:
1) isolation_create_distributed_concurrently_after_drop_column - Repros
the issue and tests on the same.
DESCRIPTION: Fixes floating exception during
create_distributed_table_concurrently.
Fixes#6332.
During create_distributed_table_concurrently, when there is no active
primary node, it fails with floating exception. We added similar check
with create_distributed_table. It will fail with proper message if
current active node is less than replication factor.

Due to Postgres' C api being o-indexed and postgres' attributes being
1-indexed, we were reading the wrong Datum as the Task owner when
cancelling. Here we add a test to show the error and fix the off-by-one
error.
When I built Citus on PG15beta4 locally, I get a warning message.
```

This is a hint to the compiler that we are deliberately falling through
in a switch-case block.
DESCRIPTION: Show citus_copy_shard_placement progress in
get_rebalance_progress
When rebalancing to a new node that does not have reference tables yet
the rebalancer will first copy the reference tables to the nodes.
Depending on the size of the reference tables, this might take a long
time. However, there's no indication of what's happening at this stage
of the rebalance.
This PR improves this situation by also showing the progress of any
citus_copy_shard_placement calls when calling get_rebalance_progress.
We can now do the following:
- Distribute sequence with logged/unlogged option
- ALTER TABLE my_sequence SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED
- ALTER SEQUENCE my_sequence SET LOGGED/UNLOGGED

PG15 introduces `CLUSTER` commands for partitioned tables. Similar to a
`CLUSTER` command with no supplied table names, these commands also can
not be run inside transaction blocks and therefore can not be propagated
in a distributed transaction block with ease. Therefore we raise warnings.

DESCRIPTION: Add a rebalancer that uses background tasks for its
execution
Based on the baclground jobs and tasks introduced in #6296 we implement
a new rebalancer on top of the primitives of background execution. This
allows the user to initiate a rebalance and let Citus execute the long
running steps in the background until completion.
Users can invoke the new background rebalancer with `SELECT
citus_rebalance_start();`. It will output information on its job id and
how to track progress. Also it returns its job id for automation
purposes. If you simply want to wait till the rebalance is done you can
use `SELECT citus_rebalance_wait();`
A running rebalance can be canelled/stopped with `SELECT
citus_rebalance_stop();`.

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.
When introducing our overrides of pg_cancel_backend and
pg_terminate_backend we accidentally did that in such a way that we
cannot call the original pg_cancel_backend and pg_terminate_backend from
C anymore. This happened because we defined the exact same symbols in
our shared library as postgres does in its own binary.
This fixes that by using a different names for the C function than for
the SQL function.
Making this work in all upgrade and downgrade scenarios is not trivial
though, because we actually need to remove the C function definition.
Postgres errors in two different times when the symbol that a C function
wants to call is not defined in the library it expects it in:
1. When creating the SQL function definition
2. When calling the SQL function
Item 1 causes an issue when creating our extension for the first time.
We then go execute all the migrations that we have. So if the 11.0
migration contains a SQL function definition that still references the
pg_cancel_backend symbol, that migration will fail. This issue is solved
by actually changing the SQL definition in the old migration.
This is not enough to fix all issues though. Item 2 causes an issue
after an upgrade to 11.1, because it won't have the new definition of
the SQL function. This is solved by recreating the SQL functions in the
migration to 11.1. That way it gets the new definition.
Then finally there's the case of downgrades. To continue to make our
pg_cancel_backend SQL function work after downgrading, we will need to
make a patch release for 11.0 that includes the new citus_cancel_backend
symbol. This is done in a separate commit.
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

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.
Sometimes in CI our isolation_citus_dist_activity test fails randomly
like this:

I intended to fix this with #6263, but the fix turned out to be
insufficient. This PR tries to address the issue by setting
distributedCommandOriginator correctly in more situations. However, even
with this change it's still possible to reproduce the flaky test in CI.
In any case this should fix at least some instances of this issue.
In passing this changes the isolation_citus_dist_activity test to allow
running it multiple times in a row.
