DESCRIPTION: Drop `SHARD_STATE_TO_DELETE` and use the cleanup records
instead
Drops the shard state that is used to mark shards as orphaned. Now we
insert cleanup records into `pg_dist_cleanup` so "orphaned" shards will
be dropped either by maintenance daemon or internal cleanup calls. With
this PR, we make the "cleanup orphaned shards" functions to be no-op, as
they would not be needed anymore.
This PR includes some naming changes about placement functions. We don't
need functions that filter orphaned shards, as there will be no orphaned
shards anymore.
We will also be introducing a small script with this PR, for users with
orphaned shards. We'll basically delete the orphaned shard entries from
`pg_dist_placement` and insert cleanup records into `pg_dist_cleanup`
for each one of them, during Citus upgrade.
We also have a lot of flakiness fixes in this PR.

Sometimes our `isolation_insert_vs_vacuum` test would fail like this.
```diff
step s2-vacuum-analyze:
VACUUM ANALYZE test_insert_vacuum;
-
+ <waiting ...>
step s1-commit:
COMMIT;
+step s2-vacuum-analyze: <... completed>
```
The reason seems to be that VACUUM ANALYZE tries to take some locks that
conflict with the other transaction, but these locks somehow get
released or VACUUM ANALYZE stops waiting for them. This is somewhat
expected since VACUUM has some special locking logic.
To solve the flakyness we now trigger VACUUM ANALYZE to always report as
blocking and after that we wait explicitly wait for it to complete. This
is done
like is suggested by the flaky test tips from postgres:
c68a183990/src/test/isolation/README (L152)
I've confirmed that this fixes the issue suing our flaky-test-debugging
CI workflow.
DESCRIPTION: Defers cleanup after a failure in shard move or split
We don't need to do a cleanup in case of failure on a shard transfer or
split anymore. Because,
* Maintenance daemon will clean them up anyway.
* We trigger a cleanup at the beginning of shard transfers/splits.
* The cleanup on failure logic also can fail sometimes and instead of
the original error, we throw the error that is raised by the cleanup
procedure, and it causes confusion.
* Skip some exceptional test files in the flaky workflow, like
multi_extension
* Run some tests without a schedule, like single_node_enterprise
* Use minimal schedule for the tests in split and operations schedules
DESCRIPTION: Cleanup the shard on the target node in case of a
failed/aborted shard move
Inserts a cleanup record for the moved shard placement on the target
node. If the move operation succeeds, the record will be deleted. If
not, it will remain there to be cleaned up later.
fixes: #6580
We have several version checks in our Citus upgrade tests. However, as
we drop support for PG versions, we need to update the Citus versions
used in our CI images. Therefore we must compare Citus versions in our
tests instead of using equality checks so that the queries are ran in
all the associated Citus versions.
For example, we have many conditionals where we early exit if the Citus
version is not equal to 9.0. However, as of today we never use version
9.0 and thus we always early exit in those tests.
All the tables (target, source or any CTE present) in the SQL statement are local i.e. a merge-sql with a combination of Citus local and
Non-Citus tables (regular Postgres tables) should work and give the same result as Postgres MERGE on regular tables. Catch and throw an
exception (not-yet-supported) for all other scenarios during Citus-planning phase.
DESCRIPTION: Support ALTER TABLE .. ADD PRIMARY KEY ... command
Before processing
> **ALTER TABLE ... ADD PRIMARY KEY ...**
command
1. Create a primary key name to use as the constraint name.
2. Change the **ALTER TABLE ... ADD PRIMARY KEY ...** command to into
**ALTER TABLE ... ADD CONSTRAINT \<constraint name> PRIMARY KEY ...**
form.
This is the only form we can specify a name for a primary key. If we run
ALTER TABLE .. ADD PRIMARY KEY, postgres
would create a constraint name internally in its own scheme. But the
problem is that we need to create constraint names
for shards in our own scheme which is \<constraint name>_\<shardid>.
Hence we need to create a name and send it to workers so that the
workers can append the shardid.
4. Run the changed command on the coordinator to make sure we are using
the same constraint name across the board.
5. Send the changed command to workers such that it is executed for the
main table as well as for the shards.
Fixes#6515.
Before this commit, we created an additional WaitEventSet for
checking whether the remote socket is closed per connection -
only once at the start of the execution.
However, for certain workloads, such as pgbench select-only
workloads, the creation/deletion of the additional WaitEventSet
adds ~7% CPU overhead, which is also reflected on the benchmark
results.
With this commit, we use the same WaitEventSet for the purposes
of checking the remote socket at the start of the execution.
We use "rebuildWaitEventSet" flag so that the executor can re-use
the existing WaitEventSet.
As a result, we see the following improvements on PG 15:
main : 120051 tps, 0.532 ms latency avg.
avoid_wes_rebuild: 127119 tps, 0.503 ms latency avg.
And, on PG 14, as expected, there is no difference
main : 129191 tps, 0.495 ms latency avg.
avoid_wes_rebuild: 129480 tps, 0.494 ms latency avg.
But, note that PG 15 is slightly (~1.5%) slower than PG 14.
That is probably the overhead of checking the remote socket.
- Because of the make command used for vanilla tests, test status is
always shown as success on CI. As a fix, I added `&& false` at the end
of the copying diff file to make the command fail when check-vanilla
fails.
```make
check-vanilla: all
$(pg_regress_multi_check) --vanillatest || (cp $(vanilla_diffs_file) $(citus_abs_srcdir)/regression.diffs && false)
```
- I also fixed some vanilla tests that fails due to recently added clock
related operators shown up at some queries.
We already have citus_job_wait to wait until the job reaches the desired
state. That PR adds waiting on task state to allow more granular
waiting. It can be used for Citus operations. Moreover, it is also
useful for testing purposes. (wait until a task reaches specified state)
Related to #6459.
Fixes task executor SIGTERM handling.
Problem:
When task executors are sent SIGTERM, their default handler
`bgworker_die`, which is set at worker startup, logs FATAL error. But
they do not release locks there before logging the error, which
sometimes causes hanging of the monitor. e.g. Monitor waits for the lock
forever at pg_stat flush after calling proc_exit.
Solution:
Because executors have connection to backend, they should handle SIGTERM
similar to normal backends. Normal backends uses `die` handler, in which
they set ProcDiePending flag and the next CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS call
handles it gracefully by releasing any lock before termination.
This PR adds a new CI workflow named ```flaky-test``` to run flaky test
detection on newly introduced regression tests.

Adding a testing function `wait_for_resource_cleanup` which waits until
all records in `pg_dist_cleanup` are cleaned up. The motivation is to
prevent flakiness in our tests, since the `NOTICE: cleaned up X orphaned
resources` message is not consistent in many cases. This PR replaces
`citus_cleanup_orphaned_resources` calls with
`wait_for_resource_cleanup` calls.
DESCRIPTION: Create replication artifacts with unique names
We're creating replication objects with generic names. This disallows us
to enable parallel shard moves, as two operations might use the same
objects. With this PR, we'll create below objects with operation
specific names, by appending OparationId to the names.
* Subscriptions
* Publications
* Replication Slots
* Users created for subscriptions
1) Regular users fail to use clock UDF with permission issue.
2) Clock functions were declared as STABLE, whereas by definition they are VOLATILE. By design, any clock/time
functions will return different results for each call even within a single SQL statement.
Note: UDF citus_get_transaction_clock() is a misnomer as it internally calls the clock tick which always returns
different results for every invocation in the same transaction.
Adds signal handlers for graceful termination, cancellation of
task executors and detecting config updates. Related to PR #6459.
#### How to handle termination signal?
Monitor need to gracefully terminate all running task executors before
terminating. Hence, we have sigterm handler for the monitor.
#### How to handle cancellation signal?
Monitor need to gracefully cancel all running task executors before
terminating. Hence, we have sigint handler for the monitor.
#### How to detect configuration changes?
Monitor has SIGHUP handler to reflect configuration changes while
executing tasks.
We are having some flakiness in our test schedule because of the objects
leftover from shard moves/splits. With this commit we prevent logging
cleanup object counts.
fixes: #6534
DESCRIPTION: Extend cleanup process for replication artifacts
This PR adds new cleanup record types for:
* Subscriptions
* Replication slots
* Publications
* Users created for subscriptions
We add records for these object types, to `pg_dist_cleanup` during
creation phase. Once the operation is done, in case of success or
failure, we iterate those records and drop the objects. With this PR we
will not be dropping any of these objects during the operation. In
short, we will always be deferring the drop.
One thing that's worth mentioning is that we sort cleanup records before
processing (dropping) them, because of dependency relations among those
objects, e.g a subscription might depend on a publication. Therefore, we
always drop subscriptions before publications.
We have some renames in this PR:
* `TryDropOrphanedShards` -> `TryDropOrphanedResources`
* `DropOrphanedShardsForCleanup` -> `DropOrphanedResourcesForCleanup`
* `run_try_drop_marked_shards` -> `run_try_drop_marked_resources`
as these functions now process replication artifacts as well.
This PR drops function `DropAllLogicalReplicationLeftovers` and its all
usages, since now we rely on the deferring drop mechanism.
Improvement on our background task monitoring API (PR #6296) to support
concurrent and nonblocking task execution.
Mainly we have a queue monitor background process which forks task
executors for `Runnable` tasks and then monitors their status by
fetching messages from shared memory queue in nonblocking way.
**Problem**: Currently, we error out if we detect recurring tuples in
one side without checking the other side of the join.
**Solution**: When one side of the full join consists recurring tuples
and the other side consists nonrecurring tuples, we should not pushdown
to prevent duplicate results. Otherwise, safe to pushdown.
This PR changes
```citus.propagate_session_settings_for_loopback_connection``` default
value to off not to expose this feature publicly at this point. See
#6488 for details.
When debugging issues it's quite useful to see the originating gpid in
the application_name of a query on a worker. This already happens for
most queries, but not for queries created by the rebalancer or by
run_command_on_worker. This adds a gpid to those two application_names
too.
Note, that if the GPID of the new application_names is different than
the current GPID of the backend the backend will continue to keep
the old gpid as its actual GPID. This PR is just meant to make sure
that the application_name is as useful as it can be for users to
look at. Updating of gpids will be done in a follow-up PR, and
adding gpids to all internal connections will make this easier.
Fixes a bug that causes crash when using auto_explain extension with
ALTER TABLE...ADD FOREIGN KEY... queries.
Those queries trigger a SELECT query on the citus tables as part of the
foreign key constraint validation check. At the explain hook, workers
try to explain this SELECT query as a distributed query causing memory
corruption in the connection data structures. Hence, we will not explain
ALTER TABLE...ADD FOREIGN KEY... and the triggered queries on the
workers.
Fixes#6424.
I recently cleaned up our test suite from redundant test outputs: #6111#6140#6214#6140#6434
I had to check many files manually, as they didn't have any
documentation on why the alternative test output existed in the first
place.
Adding a section in our test docs to remind developers to add
alternative test outputs with enough information/keywords.
DESCRIPTION: Makes sure to disallow triggers that depend on extensions
We were already doing so for `ALTER trigger DEPENDS ON EXTENSION`
commands. However, we also need to disallow creating Citus tables
having such triggers already, so this PR fixes that.
DESCRIPTION: Allow citus_update_node() to work with nodes from different clusters
citus_update_node(), citus_nodename_for_nodeid(), and citus_nodeport_for_nodeid() functions only checked for nodes in their own clusters and hence last two returned NULLs and the first one showed an error is the nodeId was from a different cluster.

increasing logical clock. Clock guarantees to never go back in value after restarts,
and makes best attempt to keep the value close to unix epoch time in milliseconds.
Also, introduces a new GUC "citus.enable_cluster_clock", when true, every
distributed transaction is stamped with logical causal clock and persisted
in a catalog pg_dist_commit_transaction.
DESCRIPTION: Drops GUC defer_drop_after_shard_split
DESCRIPTION: Drops GUC defer_drop_after_shard_move
Drop GUCs and related parts from the code.
Delete tests that specifically added for the GUCs.
Keep tests that can be used without the GUCs.
Update test output changes.
The motivation for this PR is to have an "always deferring" mechanism.
These two GUCs provide an option to not deferring dropping objects
during a shard move/split, and dropping them immediately. With this PR,
we will be always deferring dropping orphaned shards and other types of
objects.
We will have a separate PR to extend the deferred cleanup operation, so
that we would create records for deferred drop, for Subscriptions,
Publications, Replication Slots etc. This will make us be able to keep
track of created objects that needs to be dropped, during a shard
move/split. We will have objects created specifically for the current
operation; and those objects will be dropped at the end.
We have an issue (a draft roadmap) for enabling parallel shard moves.

Sometimes in CI our failure_split_cleanup test would fail like this:
```diff
CALL pg_catalog.citus_cleanup_orphaned_resources();
-NOTICE: cleaned up 79 orphaned resources
+NOTICE: cleaned up 82 orphaned resources
SELECT operation_id, object_type, object_name, node_group_id, policy_type

The reason was that previous tests in the schedule would also create
some orphaned resources. Sometimes some of those would already be
cleaned up by the maintenance daemon, resulting in a different number of
cleaned up resources than expected. This cleans up any previously
created resources at the start of the test without logging how many
exactly were cleaned up. As a bonus this now also allows running this
test using check-failure-base.
Good PR descriptions for flaky tests are quite helpful when reviewing.
Although obviously no PR description is the same, there's a few common
pieces of information that are useful for all PRs that fix flaky tests.
DESCRIPTION: Don't leak search_path to workers on DDL
For DDL we have to set the `search_path` on workers to the same as on
the coordinator for some DDL to work. Previously this search_path would
leak outside of the transaction that was used for the DDL. This fixes
that by using `SET LOCAL` instead of `SET`. The only place where we
still use plain `SET` is for DDL commands that are not allowed within
transactions, such as `CREATE INDEX CONCURRENLTY`.
This fixes this flaky test:
```diff
CONTEXT: SQL statement "SELECT change_id FROM distributed_triggers.data_changes
WHERE shard_key_value = NEW.shard_key_value AND object_id = NEW.object_id

I had tried to fix this flaky test in #5894 and then I tried
implementing a better fix in #5896, where @marcocitus suggested this
better fix. This change reverts the fix from #5894 and implements the
fix suggested by Marco.
Our multi_mx_alter_distributed_table test actually depended on the old
buggy search_path leaking behavior. After fixing the bug that test would
fail like this:
```diff
CALL proc_0(1.0);
DEBUG: pushing down the procedure
-NOTICE: Res: 3
-DETAIL: from localhost:xxxxx
+ERROR: relation "test_proc_colocation_0" does not exist
+CONTEXT: PL/pgSQL function mx_alter_distributed_table.proc_0(double precision) line 5 at SQL statement
+while executing command on localhost:57637
RESET client_min_messages;
```
I fixed this test by fully qualifying the table names used in the
procedure. I think it's quite unlikely that actual users depend
on this behavior though. Since it would require first doing
DDL before calling a procedure in a session where the
search_path was changed after connecting.
DESCRIPTION: Adds failure test for shard move
DESCRIPTION: Remove function `WaitForAllSubscriptionsToBecomeReady` and
related tests
Adding some failure tests for shard moves.
Dropping the not-needed-anymore function

This PR avoids this issue by increasing
```citus.node_connection_timeout``` to 35s.
I fixed a lot of flaky tests recently and I found some patterns in the
type of issues and type of fixes. This adds a document that lists
these types of issues and explains how to fix them.
To be able to test non-blocking shard moves we take an advisory lock, so
we can pause the shard move at an interesting moment. Originally this
was during the logical replication catch up phase. But when I added
tests for the rebalancer progress I moved this lock before the initial
data copy. This allowed testing of the rebalance progress, but
inadvertently made our non-blocking tests not actually test if we held
unintended locks during logical replication catch up.
This fixes that by creating two types of advisory locks, one before the
copy and one after. This causes the tests to actually test their
intended scenario again.
Furthermore it starts using one of these locks for blocking shard moves
too. Which allowed me to reduce the complexity of the rebalance progress
test suite quite a bit. It also allowed enabling some flaky tests again,
because this stopped them from being flaky. And finally it allowed
testing of rebalance progress for blocking shard copy operations as
well.
In passing it fixes a flaky test during parallel blocking shard moves by
ordering the output.
DESCRIPTION: Adds status column to get_rebalance_progress()
Introduces a new column named `status` for the function
`get_rebalance_progress()`. For each ongoing shard move, this column
will reveal information about that shard move operation's current
status.
For now, candidate status messages could be one of the below.
* Not Started
* Setting Up
* Copying Data
* Catching Up
* Creating Constraints
* Final Catchup
* Creating Foreign Keys
* Completing
* Completed
Deparser function set_relation_column_names() knows that it needs to
re-evaluate column names based on relation's tuple descriptor when
the rte belongs to a relation (RTE_RELATION).
However before this commit, it didn't know about the fact that citus
might wrap such an rte with an rte that points to
citus_extradata_container() placeholder.
And because of this, it was simply taking the column aliases
(e.g., "bar" in "foo AS bar") into the account and this might result in
an incorrectly deparsed query as in below case:
* Say, if we had view based on following query:
```sql
SELECT a FROM table;
```
* And if we rename column "a" to "b", the view query normally becomes:
```sql
SELECT b AS a FROM table;
```
* So before this commit, deparsing a query based on that view was
resulting in such a query due to deparsing based on the column aliases,
which is not correct:
```sql
SELECT a FROM table;
```
Fixes#5932.
DESCRIPTION: Fixes a bug that might cause failing to query the views
based on tables that have renamed columns
PostgreSQL 15 exposes WL_SOCKET_CLOSED in WaitEventSet API, which is
useful for detecting closed remote sockets. In this patch, we use this
new event and try to detect closed remote sockets in the executor.
When a closed socket is detected, the executor now has the ability to
retry the connection establishment. Note that, the executor can retry
connection establishments only for the connection that has not been
used. Basically, this patch is mostly useful for preventing the executor
to fail if a cached connection is closed because of the worker node
restart (or worker failover).
In other words, the executor cannot retry connection establishment if we
are in a distributed transaction AND any command has been sent over the
connection. That requires more sophisticated retry mechanisms. For now,
fixing the above use case is enough.
Fixes#5538
Earlier discussions: #5908, #6259 and #6283
### Summary of the current approach regards to earlier trials
As noted, we explored some alternatives before getting into this.
https://github.com/citusdata/citus/pull/6283 is simple, but lacks an
important property. We should be checking for `WL_SOCKET_CLOSED`
_before_ sending anything over the wire. Otherwise, it becomes very
tricky to understand which connection is actually safe to retry. For
example, in the current patch, we can safely check
`transaction->transactionState == REMOTE_TRANS_NOT_STARTED` before
restarting a connection.
#6259 does what we intent here (e.g., check for sending any command).
However, as @marcocitus noted, it is very tricky to handle
`WaitEventSets` in multiple places. And, the executor is designed such
that it reacts to the events. So, adding anything `pre-executor` seemed
too ugly.
In the end, I converged into this patch. This patch relies on the
simplicity of #6283 and also does a very limited handling of
`WaitEventSets`, just for our purpose. Just before we add any connection
to the execution, we check if the remote session has already closed.
With that, we do a brief interaction of multiple wait event processing,
but with different purposes. The new wait event processing we added does
not even consider cancellations. We let that handled by the main event
processing loop.

This PR avoids this concurrency issue by not running the
multi_partitioning test in parallel with other tests.
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.

I tried to fix that already in #6252 by disabling the maintenance daemon
during isolation tests. But it seems that hasn't fixed all cases of
these errors. This is another attempt at fixing these issues that seems
to have better results.
What it does is that it starts using the pInterestingPids parameter that
citus_isolation_test_session_is_blocked receives. With this change we
start filter out block-edges that are not caused by any of these pids.
In passing this change also makes it possible to run
`isolation_create_distributed_table_concurrently` with

It turned out this was an actual bug in the way our assigning of global
PIDs interacts with the way we connect to ourselves as the shard
rebalancer. The first command the shard rebalancer sends is a SET
ommand to change the application_name to `citus_rebalancer`. If
`StartupCitusBackend` is called after this command is processed, then it
overwrites the global PID that was extracted from the previous
application_name. This makes sure that we don't do that, and continue to
use the original global PID. While it might seem that we only call
`StartupCitusBackend` once for each query backend, this isn't actually
the case. Whenever pg_dist_partition gets ANALYZEd by autovacuum
we indirectly call `StartupCitusBackend` again, because we invalidate
the cache then.
In passing this fixes two other things as well:
1. It sets `distributedCommandOriginator` correctly in
`AssignGlobalPID`, by using IsExternalClientBackend(). This doesn't
matter much anymore, since AssignGlobalPID effectively becomes a
no-op in this PR for any non-external client backends.
2. It passes the application_name to InitializeBackendData in
StartupCitusBackend, instead of INVALID_CITUS_INTERNAL_BACKEND_GPID
(which effectively got casted to NULL). In practice this doesn't
change the behaviour of the call, since the call is a no-op for every
backend except the maintenance daemon. And the behaviour of the call
is the same for NULL as for the application_name of the maintenance
daemon.
We decrease verbosity level here to avoid the flaky output

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.
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.
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.
DESCRIPTION: Adds source_lsn and target_lsn fields into
get_rebalance_progress
Adding two fields named `source_lsn` and `target_lsn` to the function
`get_rebalance_progress`.
Target lsn data is fetched in `GetShardStatistics`, by expanding the
query sent to workers (joining with pg_subscription_rel and
pg_stat_subscription). Then put into the hashmap, for each shard.
Source lsn data is fetched in `BuildWorkerShardStatististicsHash`, in
the loop that iterate each node, by sending a pg_current_wal_lsn query
to each node. Then put into the hashmap, for each node.
On our CI our isolation_shard_rebalancer_progress would sometimes
randomly fail like this:
```diff
table_name|shardid|shard_size|sourcename|sourceport|source_shard_size|targetname|targetport|target_shard_size|progress|operation_type

The shard sizes would be slightly larger or smaller than expected. This
fixes this by fixing the output to the nearest expected shard size. To
do so I used a trick described in this stack overflow answer:

When investigating I ran into one more random failure:
```diff

This random failure happens, because the two parallel moves can complete
at the same time. So, it's non-deterministic which one finishes first. To
make this deterministic I used the "marker" feature from the isolation
tester.
And finally I ran into a third random failure:
```diff

This happened in two of the tests only. For now I commented these tests
out. I have some ideas on how to fix these, but these ideas require more
impactful changes than I would like in this PR. One of these tests had a
copy paste error too, in passing I fixed that in the commented out line.
This test used to contain some utility commands that Citus did not
support. However we added support for most of the commands, and this
test got outdated.
We used to error out on community when user attempted to use pooler
options. Now that we open sourced all enterprise features, the test can
now be removed.
Sometimes our CI randomly fails on a test in a way similar to this:
```diff
step s2-drop:
DROP TABLE cancel_table;

+ <waiting ...>
+step s2-drop: <... completed>
starting permutation: s1-timeout s1-begin s1-sleep10000 s1-rollback s1-reset s1-drop

Another example of a failure like this:
```diff

A step that shouldn't be blocked is detected as "waiting..." temporarily
and then gets unblocked automatically immediately after. I'm not
certain of the reason for this, but one explanation is that the
maintenance daemon is doing something that blocks the query. In the
shown case my hunch is that it could be the deferred shard deletion.
This PR disables all the features of the maintenance daemon during
isolation testing to try and prevent process from randomly being
detected as blocking.
NOTE: I'm not certain that this will actually fix this issue. If the
issue persists even after this change, at least we know that it's not
the maintenance daemon that's blocking it.
For the sake of documentation, here is a failing diff:
```diff

PG15 now allows users to specify oids when creating databases. This
feature is a side effect of a bigger feature in pg_upgrade.

PG15 has suppressed some casts on constants when querying foreign
tables.
For example, we can use text to represent a type that's an enum on the
remote side.
A comparison on such a column will get shipped as "var = 'foo'::text".
But there's no enum = text operator on the remote side.
If we leave off the explicit cast, the comparison will work.
Test we behave in the same way with a Citus foreign table
Reminder: foreign tables cannot be distributed/reference, can only be
Citus local

PostgreSQL 15 had some changes to jsonpath to conform with ECMA-262
referenced by SQL standard. This commit adds tests to make sure Citus
also supports the same standards.
Relevant pg commit:
e26114c817b610424010cfbe91a743f591246ff1
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.
