We already have tests relying on citus_finalize_upgrade_to_citus11().
Now, adjust those to rely on citus_finish_citus_upgrade() and
always call citus_finish_citus_upgrade().
The error comes due to the datum jsonb in pg_dist_metadata_node.metadata being 0 in some scenarios. This is likely due to not copying the data when receiving a datum from a tuple and pg deciding to deallocate that memory when the table that the tuple was from is closed.
Also fix another place in the code that might have been susceptible to this issue.
I tested on both multi-vg and multi-1-vg and the test were successful.
altering the distributed table.
To be able to alter view's owner without enforcing sequential mode.
Alter view process functions have been udpated to use metadata
connection.
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.

Move internal storage details to a separate schema with no public
access to limit the possibility for information leakage.
Create views with public access that show storage details for those
columnar tables where the user has ownership privileges. Include
mapping between relation ID and storage ID for easier interpretation.
We remove `<waiting ...>` and `<... completed>` outputs for some CREATE
INDEX CONCURRENTLY commands since they can cause flakiness in some scenarios.
Postgres calls WaitForOlderSnapshots() and this can cause CREATE INDEX
CONCURRENTLY commands for shards to get blocked by each other for brief
periods of time. The extra waits can pop-up, or they can get completed
at different lines in the output files. To remedy that, we rename those
indexes to be captured by the new normalization rule.
* Bug fix for bug #5876. Memset MetadataCacheSystem every time there is an abort
* Created an ObjectAccessHook that saves the transactionlevel of when citus was created and will clear metadatacache if that transaction level is rolled back. Added additional tests to make sure metadatacache is cleared
Columnar: support relation options with ALTER TABLE.
Use ALTER TABLE ... SET/RESET to specify relation options rather than
alter_columnar_table_set() and alter_columnar_table_reset().
Not only is this more ergonomic, but it also allows better integration
because it can be treated like DDL on a regular table. For instance,
citus can use its own ProcessUtility_hook to distribute the new
settings to the shards.
DESCRIPTION: Columnar: support relation options with ALTER TABLE.
DESCRIPTION:
* Lock statements will propagate locks to all the nodes in the metadata when a citus tables or a view is locked. Locks will also be propagated for all citus tables that appear in the definition of views that are locked (recursively applies to the views inside the locked view).
* TRUNCATE-ing a citus table from a worker node is no longer allowed if the coordinator is not added to the metadata. When TRUNCATE is called on a citus table that table needs to be locked in all the nodes before the TRUCATE is executed. If the coordinator is not in the metadata, the coordinator will not be aware of the lock on the table and can access the table's shard while a TRUNCATE is executing. Despite not being recommended, this behavior can be allowed by setting `SET citus.allow_unsafe_locks_from_workers TO 'on';`.
* `pg_dump` which calls LOCK TABLE is affected in the same way as TRUNCATE. An error is thrown when locking from worker when coordinator is not in the metadata.
With Citus MX enabled, when a reference table is modified, it does
some operations on the first worker node(e.g., acquire locks).
If node metadata is locked (via add node or create restore point),
the changes to the reference tables should be blocked.
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 |
There are two problems in this area. First, when there are expressions
on the index name, we should call `transformIndexExpression()` before
generating the index name. That is what Postgres does.
Second, because of 40c24bfef9
PG 13 and PG 14 generates different names for indexes with function calls even for local PG tables.
Assume we have:
```SQL
create table t(id int);
select create_distributed_table('t', 'id');
create index ON t (my_very_boring_function(id));
```
On PG 13, the name of the index is `t_expr_idx`
```SQL
\d t
Table "public.t"
┌────────┬─────────┬───────────┬──────────┬─────────┐
│ Column │ Type │ Collation │ Nullable │ Default │
├────────┼─────────┼───────────┼──────────┼─────────┤
│ id │ integer │ │ │ │
└────────┴─────────┴───────────┴──────────┴─────────┘
Indexes:
"t_expr_idx" btree (my_very_boring_function(id::bigint))
```
On PG 14, the name of the index is `t_my_very_boring_function_idx`
```SQL
\d t
Table "public.t"
┌────────┬─────────┬───────────┬──────────┬─────────┐
│ Column │ Type │ Collation │ Nullable │ Default │
├────────┼─────────┼───────────┼──────────┼─────────┤
│ id │ integer │ │ │ │
└────────┴─────────┴───────────┴──────────┴─────────┘
Indexes:
"t_my_very_boring_function_idx" btree (my_very_boring_function(id::bigint))
```
The second issue is not very critical. The important part is that
we adjust regression tests to drop all the indexes, which ensures
the index names are sane on any version.
Over time we have added significantly improved the support for objects to be propagated by Citus as to make scaling out the database more seamless. It became evident that there was a lot of code duplication that got into the codebase to implement the propagation.
This PR tries to reduce the amount of repeated code that is at most only slightly different. To make things worse, most of the differences were actually oversights instead of correct.
This Patch introduces 3 reusable sets of pre/post processing steps for respectively
- create
- alter
- drop
With the use of the common functionality we should have more coherent behaviour between different supported object by Citus.
Some steps either omit the Pre or Post processing step if they would not make sense to include.
All tests pass, only 1 test needed changing, foreign servers, as the dropping of foreign servers didn't implement support for dropping multiple foreign servers at once. Given the common approach correctly supports dropping of multiple objects, either distributed or not, the test that assumed it wouldn't work was now obsolete.
We have a mechanism which ensures that newly distributed
objects are recorded during `alter extension citus update`.
However, the logic was lacking "view"s. With this commit, we make
sure that existing views are also marked as distributed during
upgrade.
We are nearing the 100 objects being propagated in `master_copy_shard_placement` and with the extra supported objects this gets pushed over a 100 objects.
When a 100 objects are reached for propagation a notice will be shown to the user, informing them it might take a while to finish the operation.
During testing this is not important to see. Since the message contains the exact number of objects to be propagated the tests becomes very unstable when merging community into enterprsie.
This change makes that the test output stays stable.
