create_reference_table() creates a hash distributed table with shard count
equals to 1 and replication factor equals to shard_replication_factor
configuration value.
Adds support for PostgreSQL 9.6 by copying in the requisite ruleutils
file and refactoring the out/readfuncs code to flexibly support the
old-style copy/pasted out/readfuncs (prior to 9.6) or use extensible
node APIs (in 9.6 and higher).
Most version-specific code within this change is only needed to set new
fields in the AggRef nodes we build for aggregations. Version-specific
test output files were added in certain cases, though in most they were
not necessary. Each such file begins by e.g. printing the major version
in order to clarify its purpose.
The comment atop citus_nodes.h details how to add support for new nodes
for when that becomes necessary.
This change adds the pg_dist_local_group metadata table, which indicates
the group id of the current node. It is expected that this table contains
one and only one row, which only contains the group id of the node as an
integer.
With this change, master_copy_shard_placement and master_move_shard_placement functions
start to copy/move given shard along with its co-located shards.
This commit completes having support in Citus by adding having support for
real-time and task-tracker executors. Multiple tests are added to regression
tests to cover new supported queries with having support.
This change adds the required infrastructure about metadata snapshot from MX
codebase into Citus, mainly metadata_sync.c file and master_metadata_snapshot UDF.
Two sets of tests are fixed by this change:
* multi_agg_approximate_distinct
* those in multi_task_tracker_extra_schedule
The first broke when we renamed stage to load in many files and was
never being run because the HyperLogLog extension wasn't easily
available in Debian. Now it's in our repo, so we install it and run
the test. I removed the distinct HLL target in favor of just always
running it and providing an output variant to handle when the extension
is absent. Basically, if PostgreSQL thinks HLL is available, the test
installs it and runs normally, otherwise the absent variant is used.
The second broke when I removed a test variant, erroneously believing
it to be related to an older Citus version. I've added a line in that
test to clarify why the variant is necessary (a practice we should
widely adopt).
So far placements were assigned an Oid, but that was just used to track
insertion order. It also did so incompletely, as it was not preserved
across changes of the shard state. The behaviour around oid wraparound
was also not entirely as intended.
The newly introduced, explicitly assigned, IDs are preserved across
shard-state changes.
The prime goal of this change is not to improve ordering of task
assignment policies, but to make it easier to reference shards. The
newly introduced UpdateShardPlacementState() makes use of that, and so
will the in-progress connection and transaction management changes.

This change adds the `pg_dist_node` table that contains the information
about the workers in the cluster, replacing the previously used
`pg_worker_list.conf` file (or the one specified with `citus.worker_list_file`).
Upon update, `pg_worker_list.conf` file is read and `pg_dist_node` table is
populated with the file's content. After that, `pg_worker_list.conf` file
is renamed to `pg_worker_list.conf.obsolete`
For adding and removing nodes, the change also includes two new UDFs:
`master_add_node` and `master_remove_node`, which require superuser
permissions.
'citus.worker_list_file' guc is kept for update purposes but not used after the
update is finished.
related to a table that might be distributed, allowing any name
that is within regular PostgreSQL length limits to be extended
with a shard ID for use in shards on workers. Handles multi-byte
character boundaries in identifiers when making prefixes for
shard-extended names. Includes tests.
Uses hash_any from PostgreSQL's access/hashfunc.c.
Removes AppendShardIdToStringInfo() as it's used only once
and arguably is best replaced there with a call to AppendShardIdToName().
Adds UDF shard_name(object_name, shard_id) to expose the shard-extended
name logic to other PL/PGSQL, UDFs and scripts.
Bumps version to 6.0-2 to allow for UDF to be created in migration script.

is now a `::regtype` using the qualified name of the column type,
not the column type OID which may differ between master/worker nodes.
Test coverage of a hash reparitition using a UDT as the join column.
Note that the UDFs `worker_hash_partition_table` and `worker_range_partition_table`
are unchanged, and rightly expect an OID for the column type; but the
planner code building the commands now allows for `::regtype` casting
to do its magic.
Fixescitusdata/citus#111.
This commit enables to create different worker and master temporary folders.
This change is important for citus-mx on task-tracker execution. In simple words,
on citus-mx, the worker could actually be reponsible for the master tasks as well.
Prior to this change, both master and worker logic on task-tracker executor was
accessing and using the same files for different purposes which was dangerous on
certain cases (i.e., when task_tracker_delay is low).
Before this change, count on a distributed returned NULL if all shards
were pruned away, because on the master we replace with count(..) call
with a sum(..) call to sum the counts from the shards. However, sum
returns NULL when there are no rows, whereas count is expected to return
0.
An interaction between ReraiseRemoteError and DML transaction support
causes segfaults:
* ReraiseRemoteError calls PurgeConnection, freeing a connection...
* That connection is still in the xactParticipantHash
At transaction end, the memory in the freed connection might happen to
pass the "is this connection OK?" check, causing us to try to send an
ABORT over that connection. By removing it from the transaction hash
before calling ReraiseRemoteError, we avoid this possibility.
UNIQUE or PRIMARY KEY constraints. Also, properly propagate valid
EXCLUDE constraints to worker shard tables.
If an EXCLUDE constraint includes the distribution column,
the operator must be an equality operator.
Tests in regression suite for exclusion constraints that include
the partition column, omit it, and include it but with non-equality
operator. Regression tests also verify that valid exclusion constraints
are propagated to the shard tables. And the tests work in different
timezones now.
Fixescitusdata/citus#748 and citusdata/citus#778.
pg_toast_* oids are constantly changing, and this causes regression tests to
fail time to time. With this commit, we remove all of the pg_toast_* references
from regression test outputs.
Three changes here to get to true multi-statement, multi-relation DDL
transactions (same functionality pre-5.2, with benefits of atomicity):
1. Changed the multi-shard utility hook to always run (consistency
with router executor hook, removes ad-hoc "installed" boolean)
2. Change the global connection list in multi_shard_transaction to
instead be a hash; update related functions to operate on global
hash instead of local hash/global list
3. Remove check within DDL code to prevent subsequent DDL commands;
place unset/reset guard around call to ConnectToNode to permit
connecting to additional nodes after DDL transaction has begun
In addition, code has been added to raise an error if a ROLLBACK TO
SAVEPOINT is attempted (similar to router executor), and comprehensive
tests execute all multi-DDL scenarios (full success, user ROLLBACK, any
actual errors (say, duplicate index), partial failure (duplicate index
on one node but not others), partial COMMIT (one node fails), and 2PC
partial PREPARE (one node fails)). Interleavings with other commands
(DML, \copy) are similarly all covered.
To permit use with ZomboDB (https://github.com/zombodb/zombodb), two
changes were necessary:
1. Permit use of `tableoid` system column in queries
2. Extend relation names appearing in index expressions
The first is accomplished by simply changing the deparse logic to allow
system columns in queries destined for distributed tables. The latter
was slightly more complex, given that DDL extension currently occurs on
workers. But since indexes cannot reference tables other than the one
being indexed, it is safe to look for any relation reference ending in
a '*' character and extend their penultimate segments with a shard id.
This change also adds an error to prevent users from distributing any
relations using the WITH (OIDS) feature, which is unsupported.
Before this change, we do not check whether given table which already contains any data
in master_create_distributed_table command. If that table contains any data, making it
it distributed, makes that data hidden to user. With this change, we now gave error to
user if the table contains data.
Recent changes to DDL and transaction logic resulted in a "regression"
from the viewpoint of users. Previously, DDL commands were allowed in
multi-command transaction blocks, though they were not processed in any
actual transactional manner. We improved the atomicity of our DDL code,
but added a restriction that DDL commands themselves must not occur in
any BEGIN/END transaction block.
To give users back the original functionality (and improved atomicity)
we now keep track of whether a multi-command transaction has modified
data (DML) or schema (DDL). Interleaving the two modification types in
a single transaction is disallowed.
This first step simply permits a single DDL command in such a block,
admittedly an incomplete solution, but one which will permit us to add
full multi-DDL command support in a subsequent commit.
"Staging table" will be the only valid use of 'stage' from now on, we
will now say "load" when talking about data ingestion. If creation of
shards is its own step, we'll just say "shard creation".
Fixes#547
This change removes all references to \stage in the regression tests
and puts \COPY instead. Doing so changed shard counts, min/max
values on some test tables (lineitem, orders, etc.).
A recent change to the image used in Travis causes some problems for
the code we use here to ensure the local replica is first. Since this
code is essentially dead in a post-stage world anyhow, we're OK with
ripping out the tests to placate Travis.
PostgreSQL 9.5.4 stopped calling planner for materialized view create
command when NO DATA option is provided.
This causes our test to behave differently between pre-9.5.4 and 9.5.4.
Fixes#679
This change sets the default commit protocol for distributed DDL
commands to '1pc'. If the user issues a distributed DDL command with
this default setting, then once in a session, a NOTICE message is
shown about using '2pc' being extra safe.
This adds support for SERIAL/BIGSERIAL column types. Because we now can
evaluate functions on the master (during execution), adding this is a
matter of ensuring the table creation step works properly.
To accomplish this, I've added some logic to detect sequences owned by
a table (i.e. those related to its columns). Simply creating a sequence
and using it in a default value is insufficient; users who do so must
ensure the sequence is owned by the column using it.
Fortunately, this is exactly what SERIAL and BIGSERIAL do, which is the
use case we're targeting with this feature. While testing this, I found
that worker_apply_shard_ddl_command actually adds shard identifiers to
sequence names, though I found no places that use or test this path. I
removed that code so that sequence names are not mutated and will match
those used by a SERIAL default value expression.
Our use of the new-to-9.5 CREATE SEQUENCE IF NOT EXISTS syntax means we
are dropping support for 9.4 (which is being done regardless, but makes
this change simpler). I've removed 9.4 from the Travis build matrix.
Some edge cases are possible in ALTER SEQUENCE, COPY FROM (on workers),
and CREATE SEQUENCE OWNED BY. I've added errors for each so that users
understand when and why certain operations are prohibited.
We remove schema name parameter from worker_fetch_foreign_file and
worker_fetch_regular_table functions. We now send schema name
concatanated with table name.
Fixes#676
We added old versions (i.e. without schema name) of worker_apply_shard_ddl_command,
worker_fetch_foreign_file and worker_fetch_regular_table back. During function call
of one of these functions, we set schema name as public schema and call the newer
version of the functions.
We can now support richer set of queries in router planner.
This allow us to support CTEs, joins, window function, subqueries
if they are known to be executed at a single worker with a single
task (all tables are filtered down to a single shard and a single
worker contains all table shards referenced in the query).
Fixes : #501
Fixes#132
We hook into ALTER ... SET SCHEMA and warn out if user tries to change schema of a
distributed table.
We also hook into ALTER TABLE ALL IN TABLE SPACE statements and warn out if citus has
been loaded.
Allows the use of modification commands (INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE) within
transaction blocks (delimited by BEGIN and ROLLBACK/COMMIT), so long as
all modifications hit a subset of nodes involved in the first such com-
mand in the transaction. This does not circumvent the requirement that
each individual modification command must still target a single shard.
For instance, after sending BEGIN, a user might INSERT some rows to a
shard replicated on two nodes. Subsequent modifications can hit other
shards, so long as they are on one or both of these nodes.
SAVEPOINTs are supported, though if the user actually attempts to send
a ROLLBACK command that specifies a SAVEPOINT they will receive an
ERROR at the end of the topmost transaction.
Placements are only marked inactive if at least one replica succeeds
in a transaction where others fail. Non-atomic behavior is possible if
the shard targeted by the initial modification within a transaction has
a higher replication factor than another shard within the same block
and a node with the latter shard has a failure during the COMMIT phase.
Other methods of denoting transaction blocks (multi-statement commands
sent all at once and functions written in e.g. PL/pgSQL or other such
languages) are not presently supported; their treatment remains the
same as before.
Fixes#555
Before this change, we were resolving HLL function and type Oid without qualified name.
Now we find the schema name where HLL objects are stored and generate qualified names for
each objects.
Similar fix is also applied for cstore_table_size function call.
Fixes#565Fixes#626
To add schema support to citus, we need to schema-prefix all table names, object names etc.
in the queries sent to worker nodes. However; query deparsing is not available for most of
DDL commands, therefore it is not easy to generate worker query in the master node.
As a solution we are sending schema names along with shard id and query to run to worker
nodes with worker_apply_shard_ddl_command.
To not break \STAGE command we pass public schema as paramater while calling
worker_apply_shard_ddl_command from there. This will not cause problem if user uses \STAGE
in different schema because passes schema name is used only if there is no schema name is
given in the query.
Fixes#215Fixes#267Fixes#502Fixes#556Fixes#557Fixes#560Fixes#568Fixes#623Fixes#624
With this change we schema-prefix table names, operator names and composite types.
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.
Fixes#394
This change adds LIMIT/OFFSET support for non router-plannable
distributed queries.
In cases that we can push the LIMIT down, we add the OFFSET value to
that LIMIT in the worker queries. When a query with LIMIT x OFFSET y is issued,
the query is propagated to the workers as LIMIT (x+y) OFFSET 0, and on the
master table, the original LIMIT and OFFSET values are used. With this change,
we can use OFFSET wherever we can use LIMIT.
- Enables using VOLATILE functions (like nextval()) in INSERT queries
- Enables using STABLE functions (like now()) targetLists and joinTrees
UPDATE and INSERT can now contain non-immutable functions. INSERT can contain any kind of
expression, while UPDATE can contain any STABLE function, so long as a Var is not passed
into the STABLE function, even indirectly. UPDATE TagetEntry's can now also include Vars.
There's an exception, CASE/COALESCE statements may not contain mutable functions.
Functions calls in master_modify_multiple_shards are also evaluated.
Fixes#463
OID of user-defined types may be different in master and worker nodes. This causes errors
while sending data between nodes with binary nodes. Because binary copy format adds OID
of the element if it is in an array. The code adding OID is in PostgreSQL code, therefore
we cannot change it. Instead we decided to use text format if we try to send array of
user-defined type.
It turns out some tests exercised this behavior, but removing it should
have no ill effects. Besides, both copy and INSERT disallow NULLs in a
table's partition column.
Fixes a bug where anti-joins on hash-partitioned distributed tables
would incorrectly prune shards early, result in incorrect results (test
included).
Fixes#78
With this change, it is possible to append a table in any schema to shard. The function
master_append_table_to_shard now supports schema names.
-Added 2 more schedules for task-tracker and multi-binary
instead of running multi_schedule 3 times
-set task-tracker-delay for each long running schedule
Fixes#550, fixes#545
If table name contains special characters, it needs to be escaped. However in some cases,
we escape table name before appending shardId, which causes syntax error in the queries
sent to worker nodes. With this change we now append shardId before escaping table names.
This checkin removes variant files we needed
due to differences in outputs of pg94 and pg95 runs.
However, variant file for test multi_upsert stays
since this file tests for a feature that does not
exist in pg94, and outputs are drastically different.
now copies all column references in count distinct aggreagete
to worker target list and group by. Master target list is
also updated to reflect changes in attribute order.
Fixes 569
Fixes#496
Previously we do not check whether table is foreign or not while creating empty
shards, and set storage type to 't'(Standard table) or 'c'(Columnar table). Now
if the table is foreign table(but not CStore foreign table) we set storage
type to 'f'(Foreign table). If it is CStore foreign table, we set its storage
type to 'c', i.e. columnar table have priority over foreign table.
Please note that 'c' is only used for CStore tables not for other possible
columnar stores at the moment. Possible improvement could be checking for other
columnar stores, though I am not sure if there is a way to check it for all
other columnar stores.
Since we now short-circuit on certain remote errors, we want to ensure
we preserve the old behavior of not modifying any placement states if
a non-short-circuiting error occurs on all placements.
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.
