Fixes#513
This change modifies the DDL Propagation logic so that DDL queries
are propagated via 2-Phase Commit protocol. This way, failures during
the execution of distributed DDL commands will not leave the table in
an intermediate state and the pending prepared transactions can be
commited manually.
DDL commands are not allowed inside other transaction blocks or functions.
DDL commands are performed with 2PC regardless of the value of
`citus.multi_shard_commit_protocol` parameter.
The workflow of the successful case is this:
1. Open individual connections to all shard placements and send `BEGIN`
2. Send `SELECT worker_apply_shard_ddl_command(<shardId>, <DDL Command>)`
to all connections, one by one, in a serial manner.
3. Send `PREPARE TRANSCATION <transaction_id>` to all connections.
4. Sedn `COMMIT` to all connections.
Failure cases:
- If a worker problem occurs before sending of all DDL commands is finished, then
all changes are rolled back.
- If a worker problem occurs after all DDL commands are sent but not after
`PREPARE TRANSACTION` commands are finished, then all changes are rolled back.
However, if a worker node is failed, then the prepared transactions in that worker
should be rolled back manually.
- If a worker problem occurs during `COMMIT PREPARED` statements are being sent,
then the prepared transactions on the failed workers should be commited manually.
- If master fails before the first 'PREPARE TRANSACTION' is sent, then nothing is
changed on workers.
- If master fails during `PREPARE TRANSACTION` commands are being sent, then the
prepared transactions on workers should be rolled back manually.
- If master fails during `COMMIT PREPARED` or `ROLLBACK PREPARED` commands are being
sent, then the remaining prepared transactions on the workers should be handled manually.
This change also helps with #480, since failed DDL changes no longer mark
failed placements as inactive.
There's not a ton of documentation about what CONTEXT lines should look
like, but this seems like the most dominant pattern. Similarly, users
should expect lowercase, non-period strings.
Fixes#271
This change sets ShardIds and JobIds for each test case. Before this change,
when a new test that somehow increments Job or Shard IDs is added, then
the tests after the new test should be updated.
ShardID and JobID sequences are set at the beginning of each file with the
following commands:
```
ALTER SEQUENCE pg_catalog.pg_dist_shardid_seq RESTART 290000;
ALTER SEQUENCE pg_catalog.pg_dist_jobid_seq RESTART 290000;
```
ShardIds and JobIds are multiples of 10000. Exceptions are:
- multi_large_shardid: shardid and jobid sequences are set to much larger values
- multi_fdw_large_shardid: same as above
- multi_join_pruning: Causes a race condition with multi_hash_pruning since
they are run in parallel.
This commit adds a fast shard pruning path for INSERTs on
hash-partitioned tables. The rationale behind this change is
that if there exists a sorted shard interval array, a single
index lookup on the array allows us to find the corresponding
shard interval. As mentioned above, we need a sorted
(wrt shardminvalue) shard interval array. Thus, this commit
updates shardIntervalArray to sortedShardIntervalArray in the
metadata cache. Then uses the low-level API that is defined in
multi_copy to handle the fast shard pruning.
The performance impact of this change is more apparent as more
shards exist for a distributed table. Previous implementation
was relying on linear search through the shard intervals. However,
this commit relies on constant lookup time on shard interval
array. Thus, the shard pruning becomes less dependent on the
shard count.
The previous form of the test, utilizing DEBUG2, included too much
output dependent on the specifc system and version. Reformulate it to
explicitly connect to workers and show the schema there, when necessary.
The only remaining difference in some of the remaining alternate
regression test files was due to an older minor version release
change. Remove those as well.
After this change, shards and associated metadata are automatically
dropped when running DROP TABLE on a distributed table, which fixes#230.
It also adds schema support for master_apply_delete_command, which
fixes#73.
Dropping the shards happens in the master_drop_all_shards UDF, which is
called from the SQL_DROP trigger. Inside the trigger, the table is no
longer visible and calling master_apply_delete_command directly wouldn't
work and oid <-> name mappings are not available. The
master_drop_all_shards function therefore takes the relation id, schema
name, and table name as parameters, which can be obtained from
pg_event_trigger_dropped_objects() in the SQL_DROP trigger. If the user
calls master_drop_all_shards while the table still exists, the schema
name and table name are ignored.
