release branches as well. As the patch does not really apply to earlier
release branches, we just added the fix manually.

DESCRIPTION: Correctly report shard size in citus_shards view
When looking at citus_shards, people are interested in the actual size
that all the data related to the shard takes up on disk.
`pg_total_relation_size` is the function to use for that purpose. The
previously used `pg_relation_size` does not include indexes or TOAST.
Especially the missing toast can have enormous impact on the size of the
shown data.

We should not omit to free PGResult when we receive single tuple result
from an internal backend.
Single tuple results are normally freed by our ReceiveResults for
`tupleDescriptor != NULL` flow but not for those with `tupleDescriptor
== NULL`. See PR #6722 for details.
DESCRIPTION: Fixes memory leak issue with query results that returns
single row.

In #6598 it was noticed that Citus could generate syntactically invalid
statements during logical replication. With #6603 we resolved the direct
issue, by only generating valid subscription names. But there was also
the underlying problem that we did not escape certain identifier
strings. While in theory this should be okay since we should only
generate names that are valid, this issue reiterated that we should not
take this for granted. As an extra line of defense this quotes all
identifiers we use during logical replication setup.

Pyenv is installed in our container images but I found out that pyenv is
not being activated since it is activated from ~/bashrc script and in
GitHub Actions (GHA) this script is not being executed
Since pyenv is not activated, default python versions comes from docker
images is being used and in this case we get errors for python version
3.11.
Additionally, $HOME directory is /github/home for containers executed

normally home directory for our packaging containers
This PR activates usage of pyenv and additionally uses pyenv virtualenv

Fixes#6570.
In the past, having columnar tables in the cluster was causing pg
upgrades to fail when attempting to access columnar metadata. This is
because, pg_dump doesn't see objects that we use for columnar-am related
booking as the dependencies of the tables using columnar-am.
To fix that; in #5456, we inserted some "normal dependency" edges (from
those objects to columnar-am) into pg_depend.
This helped us ensuring the existency of a class of metadata objects
--such as columnar.storageid_seq-- and helped fixing #5437.
However, the normal-dependency edges that we added for indexes on
columnar metadata tables --such columnar.stripe_pkey-- didn't help at
all because they were indeed causing dependency loops (#5510) and
pg_dump was not able to take those dependency edges into the account.
For this reason, instead of inserting such dependency edges from indexes
to columnar-am, we allow columnar metadata accessors to fall-back to
sequential scan during pg upgrades.

DESCRIPTION: Raises memory limits in columnar from 256MB to 1GB for

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.
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: Disallows having ON DELETE/UPDATE SET DEFAULT actions on
columns that default to sequences
Fixes#6339.

On Citus versions <= 11.0, IntegerArrayTypeToList() doesn't exist and
its helpers (DeconstructArrayObject() & ArrayObjectCount()) are defined
in worker_protocol.h. (See 9476f377b5).
So we add IntegerArrayTypeToList() into worker_protocol.c and include
IntegerArrayTypeToList from worker_protocol.h instead of array_type.h
in foreign_constraint.c.
This is needed to backport a868cc049a into
this (release-11.0) branch, see the next commit.
As we did for GENERATED STORED columns in #4613, we should not drop
column
default expressions that are not based on sequences from shard relation
since
such expressions need to exist e.g. for foreign key actions.
For the column default expressions that are based on sequences we cannot
do much, so we need to disallow having ON DELETE SET DEFAULT actions on
such columns in a separate PR, see #6339.
Fixes#6318.

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.
Historically we have been testing with the 'latest' version of libpq
when the CI images were build. This has the downside that rebuilding the
images often break our tests due to different errors returned from
libpq.
With this change we will actually test with a stable version of libpq
that is based on the postgres minor version that we test against.
This will make it easier to maintain postgres images over time, as well
as running _all_ tests locally, where we change libpq in sync with the
postgres server version.

```
This then breaks all the tests run after it as well, because we're
missing one worker node.
Locally I was able to reproduce this error by sleeping for 10 seconds in
the forked process sleep before actually starting mitmproxy. So I'm
expecting what's happening in CI is that due to limited resources,
mitmproxy is not up yet when we try to add its port as a workernode.
This PR fixes this by waiting until mitmproxy is listening on its socket
before actually starting to run our tests. This fixed it locally for me
when I made the forked process sleep for 10 seconds before starting
mitmproxy.
In passing it also improves the detection and errors that we already
had for the case where something was already listening on the
mitmproxy port.
Because both @gledis69 and me were changing things in our CI images
at the same time this also includes a bump of the style checker tools.

This means that the low slow start interval did not have any effect on
the number of connections being opened. I could see two possibilities
for this to happen:
1. CI was slow and actually doing the start of the second connection. I
tried to solve this by doubling the time a query to the worker takes.
2. The second option is that the shards were queried in the oposite
order than we expect. This would mean that the first query to the
worker completes quickly because there's no, sleep because it doesn't
contain any rows. I tried to solve this option by adding a row to
each shard.
After trying to reproduce the random failure in CI it turned out that I
needed both of these fixes to resolve the random failure.

For some reason the colocationid of the distributed partitioned table
would be one less than we expected. Why this happens I'm not sure, but
it seems fairly harmless that it does.
In an attempt to work around this flakyness I now reset the colocation
id sequence right before creating the table in question. This is good
practice in general, because it allows us to run the test successfully
using `check-minimal` and it also allows us to rerun it multiple times.

```
The reason for this is that the mitm command that was used is very
broad and doesn't actually do what the comment says. What happens is
that if any connection is made, the current backend is cancelled, which
is not the always the same as the backend that made the connection. My
assessment is that likely the maintenance daemon makes a connection to
the node while we are executing the mitmproxy command. The mitmproxy
command goes through, and then triggers a cancel of itself due to the
connection made by the maintenance daemon.
This PR simply removes this test, since it doesn't seem to test what it
intended to test anyway. There's also still the "kill" version of this
test, which does do the intended thing. So I don't think we lose
important coverage by removing this test.

Our isolation_distributed_deadlock_detection test would fail randomly in
CI in three different ways.
The first type of failure looked like this:
```diff

(1 row)
-step s1-update-5: <... completed>
step s5-update-1: <... completed>
ERROR: canceling the transaction since it was involved in a distributed deadlock

This random change in output was harmless and happened because when the
deadlock detector cancelled a query, two queries would continue: The one
that was cancelled would throw an error (and thus complete), and the one
that was unblocked would now complete.
It was random which of the two the isolation tester would first detect
as completed. To resolve this PR starts using the ["marker" feature][1],
this allows us to make sure one of the steps won't be marked as
completed until the other one completed first.
The second random failure was very similar:
```diff
check_distributed_deadlocks
---------------------------
t
(1 row)
-step s2-update-2: <... completed>
-step s3-update-3: <... completed>
-ERROR: canceling the transaction since it was involved in a distributed deadlock
step s6-commit:

+step s2-update-2: <... completed>
+step s3-update-3: <... completed>
+ERROR: canceling the transaction since it was involved in a distributed deadlock
step s5-commit:
```
Again a harmless difference in test output. In this case it's possible
that the deadlock detector would not detect the unblocked processes
right away, and would thus continue with to the next step. This step was
a commit on a session that was not blocked, and which thus could
complete without issues.
To solve this I changed the order of the commits at the end of the
permutation, to always have the first session that would commit be the
session that would be unblocked the last. This ensures that no commit
will ever be executed before completing all the queries.
The third issue was different and looked like this:
```diff
step s4-update-5: <... completed>
step s4-commit:
COMMIT;
+step s1-update-4: <... completed>
+isolationtester: canceling step s3-update-4 after 5 seconds

The reason for this failure is not entirely clear to me, but I was able
to remove the flakyness without impacting the goal of the test. What was
happening was that both `s1` and `s3` were waiting for `s4` to commit
and release it's lock on the row 4. For some reason it wasn't
deterministic which of the two sessions would be granted the lock after
it was released by row 4. The test expected `s3` to be granted the lock,
but sometimes it would be granted to `s1` instead. Which would in turn
cause `s3` to still be blocked.
To solve this I simply removed `s1` completely from this test. It wasn't
actually part of the cycle that the deadlock detector should detect and
was an unrelated appendage:
```mermaid
graph TD;
s2-->s3;
s3-->s4;
s1-->s4;
s4-->s5;
s5-->s6;
s6-->s5;
```
By removing `s1` completely there was no contention for the lock and
`s3` could always acquire it.

```
Because `CitusTableTypeIdList` returns tables in heap order so it's
a bit random which one is first in the list. And the test contained
multiple tables that didn't have a primary key or replica identity. So
it made sense that the error could be for either one of these tables.
This PR makes the test output consistent by changing one of the tables
to have a primary key.

The way I fixed this was by removing the dump_network_traffic call. This
might sound simple, but doing this while continuing to let the test
serve its intended purpose required quite some more changes.
This dump_network_traffic call was there because we didn't want to show
warnings in the queries above, because the exact warnings were not
reliable. The main reason this error was not reliable was because we
were using round-robin task assignment. We did the same query twice, so
that it would hit the node with the intercepted connection in one of
those connections. Instead of doing that I'm now using the
"first-replica" policy and do the queries only once. This works, because
the first placements by placementid for each of the used tables are on
the second node, so first-replica will cause the first connection to go
there.
This solved most of the flakyness, but when confirming that the
flakyness was fixed I found some additional errors:
```diff

SELECT citus.mitmproxy('conn.allow()');

I addressed this with a combination of two things:
1. Only change citus.node_connection_timeout for the queries that we
want to test timeout behaviour for. When those queries are done I
reset the value to the default again.
2. Change our mitm framework to only delay the initial connection packet
instead of all packets. I think sometimes a follow on packet of a previous
connection attempt was causing the next connection attempt to be delayed
even if `conn.allow()` was already called. For our tests we only care about
connection timeouts, so there's no reason to delay any other packets than
the initial connection packet.
Then there was some last flakyness in the exact error that was given:
```diff
-- tests for connectivity checks
SELECT name FROM r1 WHERE id = 2;
WARNING: could not establish any connections to the node localhost:9060 after 900 ms
+WARNING: connection to the remote node localhost:9060 failed with the following error:

I don't have a good explaination for this slight change in error message, but
given that it is missing the actual error message I expected this to be related
to some small difference in timing: e.g. the server responding to the connection
attempt right after the coordinator determined that the connection timed out.
To solve this last flakyness I increased the connection timeouts and made the
difference between the timeout and the delay a bit bigger. With these tweaks
I wasn't able to reproduce this error on CI anymore.
Finally, I made most of the same changes to failure_failover_to_local_execution,
since it was using the `conn.delay()` mitm method too. The only change that
I left out was the timing increase, since it might not be strictly necessary and
increases time it takes to run the test. If this test ever becomes flaky the first
thing we should try is increase its timeout.

The failure_single_select test would sometimes fail with an error that's
similar to this:
```diff
-- cancel after first SELECT; txn should fail and nothing should be marked as invalid
SELECT citus.mitmproxy('conn.onQuery(query="^SELECT").cancel(' || pg_backend_pid() || ')');
- mitmproxy
----------------------------------------------------------------------

+PL/pgSQL function citus.mitmproxy(text) line 11 at EXECUTE
BEGIN;
```
This error looked very to the one from #6217 and indeed the cause turned
out to be similar. Because we were canceling all SELECT queries, we
would actually sometimes cancel our mitmproxy SELECT queries itself.
This puts some additional restrictions on the queries that we cancel,
most importantly it should contain the name of the table that we're
selecting from.
I was able to reproduce the original issue locally pretty reliably. With
the changes in this PR it didn't happen again.
In passing this also changes one other failure test that was cancelling
all selects and puts similar additional restrictions on those
cancellations.

The failure_create_distributed_table_non_empty test would sometimes fail
like this:
```diff
-- in the first test, cancel the first connection we sent from the coordinator
SELECT citus.mitmproxy('conn.cancel(' || pg_backend_pid() || ')');
- mitmproxy
----------------------------------------------------------------------

+PL/pgSQL function citus.mitmproxy(text) line 11 at EXECUTE
SELECT create_distributed_table('test_table', 'id');
```
Because the cancel command had no filter it would actually sometimes
cancel the mitmproxy cancel command itself. This PR addresses that by
filtering on CREATE TABLE, which is one of the command that
create_distributed_table will send to the workers.

Sometimes in CI the columnar_memory test was using slightly more memory
than expected.
```diff
SELECT CASE WHEN 1.0 * TopMemoryContext / :top_post BETWEEN 0.98 AND 1.02 THEN 1 ELSE 1.0 * TopMemoryContext / :top_post END AS top_growth
FROM columnar_test_helpers.columnar_store_memory_stats();
--[ RECORD 1 ]-
-top_growth | 1
+-[ RECORD 1 ]------------------
+top_growth | 1.0206132116232119
-- before this change, max mem usage while executing inserts was 28MB and
```
This PR changes the expectation to be slightly higher, such that this
random increase in memory usage doesn't cause a flaky test.

Sometimes the columnar_memory test fails in CI with the following error:
```diff
SELECT 1.0 * TopMemoryContext / :top_post BETWEEN 0.98 AND 1.02 AS top_growth_ok
FROM columnar_test_helpers.columnar_store_memory_stats();
-[ RECORD 1 ]-+--
-top_growth_ok | t
+top_growth_ok | f
-- before this change, max mem usage while executing inserts was 28MB and
```
This is almost certainly a harmless failure that simply requires bumping
the margin a little bit. However, it's impossible to say with the
current output. I was unable to reproduce this on-demand on my local
machine or even in CI. So this changes the test to include the actual
value difference in the size of TopMemoryContext when it's outside the
expected range. Then next time it fails we at least have some
information about why.
