I came across several places we weren't as flexible or resilient as we
should have been in our build logic. They include:
* Not using `DESTDIR` in the install-header destination
* Allowing callers to specify `VPATH` or `srcdir` (which breaks)
* Using absolute path for SCRIPTS (9.5 prepends srcdir)
* Including libpq-int in a confusing way (extracted this function)
* Having server includes come first during csql build (client must)
In particular, I hit all of these attempting to build with pg_buildext
in Debian. It passes in an explicit VPATH, as well as srcdir (breaking
all recursive make invocations), and also uses DESTDIR during install.
In addition, a PGDG-enabled Debian box will have the latest libpq-dev
headers (e.g. 9.5) even when building against an older server version
(e.g. 9.4). This leads to problems when including e.g. `c.h`, which
is ambiguous. While compiling more client-side code (csql), we need to
ensure the newer libpq headers are included _first_, so I fixed that.
The default staging policy is now round-robin, though tests were still
configured to use local-first. Testing with the shipping default seems
like the best option, correctness-wise, and since local-first has some
issues with OSes where connecting from localhost doesn't always resolve
to 'localhost', just going with the default is a win-win.
Need to change to the project's top srcdir, as citus_indent expects to
be able to find styled files using git ls-files, and VPATH builds would
otherwise not return any results.
Though Citus' Task struct has a shardId field, it doesn't have the same
semantics as the one previously used in pg_shard code. The analogous
field in the Citus Task is anchorShardId. I've also added an argument
check to the relevant locking function to catch future locking attempts
which pass an invalid argument.
- Flexed the check which prevented append operation cstore tables
since its storage type is not SHARD_STORAGE_TABLE.
- Used process utility function to perform copy operation in
worker_append_table_to shard() instead of directly calling
postgresql DoCopy().
- Removed the additional check in master_create_empty_shard() function.
This check was redundant and erroneous since it was called after
CheckDistributedTable() call.
- Modified WorkerTableSize() function to retrieve cstore table shard
size correctly.
