When the file does not exist, it could mean two different things.
First -- and a lot more common -- case is that a failure happened
in a concurrent backend on the same distributed transaction. And,
one of the backends in that transaction has already been roll
backed, which has already removed the file. If we throw an error
here, the user might see this error instead of the actual error
message. Instead, we prefer to WARN the user and pretend that the
file has no data in it. In the end, the user would see the actual
error message for the failure.
Second, in case of any bugs in intermediate result broadcasts,
we could try to read a non-existing file. That is most likely
to happen during development. Thus, when asserts enabled, we throw
an error instead of WARNING so that the developers cannot miss.
When we have a query like the following:
```SQL
WITH a AS (SELECT * FROM foo LIMIT 10) SELECT max(x) FROM a JOIN bar 2 USING (y);
```
Citus currently opens side channels for doing the
`COPY "1_1"` FROM STDIN (format 'result')
before starting the execution of
`SELECT * FROM foo LIMIT 10`
Since we need at least 1 connection per worker to do
`SELECT * FROM foo LIMIT 10`
We need to have 2 connections to worker in order to broadcast the results.
However, we don't actually send a single row over the side channel until the
execution of `SELECT * FROM foo LIMIT 10` is completely done (and connections
unclaimed) and the results are written to a tuple store. We could actually
reuse the same connection for doing the `COPY "1_1"` FROM STDIN (format 'result').
This also fixes the issue that Citus doesn't obey `citus.max_adaptive_executor_pool_size`
when the query includes an intermediate result.
We don't need any side channel connections. That is actually
problematic in the sense that it creates extra connections.
Say, citus.max_adaptive_executor_pool_size equals to 1, Citus
ends up using one extra connection for the intermediate results.
Thus, not obeying citus.max_adaptive_executor_pool_size.
In this PR, we remove the following entities from the codebase
to allow further commits to implement not requiring extra connection
for the intermediate results:
- The connection flag REQUIRE_SIDECHANNEL
- The function GivePurposeToConnection
- The ConnectionPurpose struct and related fields
* explicitly return false if transaction connected to local node
* not set TransactionConnectedToLocalGroup if we are writing to a file
We use TransactionConnectedToLocalGroup to prevent local execution from
happening as that might cause visibility problems. As files are visible
to all transactions, we shouldn't set this variable if we are writing to
a file.
In case we don't care about the tupleStoreState in
ExecuteLocalTaskListExtended, it could be passed as null. In that case
we will get a seg error. This changes it so that a dummy tuple store
will be created when it is null.
Do not use local execution in ExecuteTaskListOutsideTransaction.
As we are going to run the tasks outside transaction, we shouldn't use local execution.
However, there is some problem when using local execution related to
repartition joins, when we solve that problem, we can execute the tasks
coming to this path with local execution.
Also logging the local command is simplified.
normalize job id in worker_hash_partition_table in test outputs.
For shardplacements, we were setting nodeid, nodename, nodeport and
nodegroup manually. This makes it very error prone, and it seems that we
already forgot to set some of them. This would mean that they would have
their default values, e.g group id would be 0 when its group id is not
0.
So the implication is that we would have inconsistent worker metadata.
A new method is introduced, and we call the method to set those fields
now, so that as long as we call this method, we won't be setting
inconsistent metadata.
It probably makes sense to have a struct for these fields. We already
have NodeMetadata but it doesn't have nodename or nodeport. So that
could be done over another refactor to make things simpler.
This is possible whenever we aren't pulling up intermediate rows
We want to do this because this was done in 9.2,
some queries rely on the performance of grouping causing distinct values
This change was introduced when implementing window functions on coordinator
ExecuteTaskListExtended is the common method for different codepaths,
and instead of writing separate local execution logics in different
codepaths, it makes more sense to have the logic here. We still need to
do some refactoring, this is an initial step.
After this commit, we can run create shard commands locally. There is a
special case with shard creation commands. A create shard command might
have a concatenated query string, however local execution did not know
how to execute a task with multiple query strings. This is also
implemented in this commit. We go over each query in the concatenated
query string and plan/execute them one by one.
A more clean solution to this would be to make sure that each task has a
single query. We currently cannot do that because we need to ensure the
task dependencies. However, it would make sense to do that at some point
and it would simplify the code a lot.
ExecuteLocalTaskList doesn't need scanState as it only uses
paramListInfo, distributedPlan and tupleStoreState. It is better to pass
only the variables that the function needs, so that we can call this
function from other places when we dont have scanState.
We had many fields in task related to query strings. It was kind of
complex, and only of them could be set at a time. Therefore it makes
more sense to abstract this and use a union so that it is clear that
only of them should be set.
We have three fields that could have query related strings:
- queryForLocation
- queryStringLazy
- perPlacementQueryStrings
Relatively, they can be set with:
- SetTaskQueryString
- SetTaskQueryIfShouldLazyDeparse
- SetTaskPerPlacementQueryStrings
The direct usage of the query related fields are also removed.
Rename queryForLocalExecution
Currently queryForLocalExecution is only used for deparsing purposes,
therefore it makes sense to rename it to what it is doing.
TaskQueryStringForPlacement simplifies how the executor gets the query
string for a given placement. Task will use the necessary fields to
return the correct query placement string. Executor doesn't need to know
the details for this.
rename TaskQueryString as TaskQueryStringAllPlacements
TaskQueryString returns the query string that will be the same for all
the placements. In INSERT..SELECT the query string can be different for
each placement. Adaptive executor uses TaskQueryStringForPlacement,
which returns the query string for a placement. It makes sense to rename
TaskQueryString as TaskQueryStringAllPlacements as it is returning the
query string for all placements.
rename SetTaskQuery as SetTaskQueryIfShouldLazyDeparse
SetTaskQuery does not always sets the task query. It can set the query
string as well. So it is more clear to name it
SetTaskQueryIfShouldLazyDeparse, since it will set the query not query
string only when we should deparse the query in a lazy way.
It is possible that a task will have different query string for each
placement. This is the case in INSERT..SELECT via repartitioning. When
we are setting task->perPlacementQueryString, we should set
queryStringLazy to NULL. Therefore a method for that purpose is created.
In PostgreSQL, user defaults for config parameters can be changed by
ALTER ROLE .. SET statements. We wish to propagate those defaults
accross the Citus cluster so that the behaviour will be similar in
different workers.
The defaults can either be set in a specific database, or the whole
cluster, similarly they can be set for a single role or all roles.
We propagate the ALTER ROLE .. SET if all the conditions below are met:
- The query affects the current database, or all databases
- The user is already created in worker nodes
Sometimes we have concatenated query strings for a task. However,
when we want to find each query string, it is not a trivial task.
Therefore, it makes sense to store this in task so that when we need
each query string we can easily get it.
Some refactoring:
Consolidate expression which decides whether GROUP BY/HAVING are pushed down
Rename early pullUpIntermediateRows to hasNonDistributableAggregates
Create WorkerColumnName to handle formatting WORKER_COLUMN_FORMAT
Ignore NULL StringInfo pointers to SafeToPushdownWindowFunction
Fix bug where SubqueryPushdownMultiNodeTree mutates supplied Query,
SafeToPushdownWindowFunction requires the original query as it relies on rtable
DESCRIPTION: Refactor dependency resolution and resolve from pg_shdepend
This PR refactors how dependencies are resolved by not assuming solely a `pg_depend` record describing the dependency. Instead we keep a definition of the dependency around which records how the dependency is resolved. This can be one of the following ways
- `pg_depend`, data will contain a copy of the `pg_depend` record
- `pg_shdepend`, data will contain a copy of the `pg_shdepend` record
- `ObjectAddress`, data will contain only an `ObjectAddress` describing a dependency
Irregardless of way the dependency was found it will always be able to get to the address of the dependency as that is the most important property.
For some checks we can inspect the source where the dependency was found and perform a deep inspection to decide if we want to follow the dependency. This is important to not distribute dependencies coming from extensions for example.
We cache connections between nodes in our connection management code.
This is good for speed. For security this can be a problem though. If
the user changes settings related to TLS encryption they want those to
be applied to future queries. This is especially important when they did
not have TLS enabled before and now they want to enable it. This can
normally be achieved by changing citus.node_conninfo. However, because
connections are not reopened there will still be old connections that
might not be encrypted at all.
This commit changes that by marking all connections to be shutdown at
the end of their current transaction. This way running transactions will
succeed, even if placement requires connections to be reused for this
transaction. But after this transaction completes any future statements
will use a connection created with the new connection options.
If a connection is requested and a connection is found that is marked
for shutdown, then we don't return this connection. Instead a new one is
created. This is needed to make sure that if there are no running
transactions, then the next statement will not use an old cached
connection, since connections are only actually shutdown at the end of a
transaction.
