The logical replication catchup part for shard splits and shard moves is
very similar. This abstracts most of that similarity away into a single
function. This also improves the logic for non blocking shard splits a
bit, by using faster foreign key creation. It also parallelizes index creation
which shard moves were already doing, but shard splits did not.
DESCRIPTION: Add infrastructure to run long running management operations in background
This infrastructure introduces the primitives of jobs and tasks.
A task consists of a sql statement and an owner. Tasks belong to a
Job and can depend on other tasks from the same job.
When there are either runnable or running tasks we would like to
make sure a bacgrkound task queue monitor process is running. A Task
could be in running state while there is actually no monitor present
due to a database restart or failover. Once the monitor starts it
will reset any running task to its runnable state.
To make sure only one background task queue monitor is ever running
at once it will acquire an advisory lock that self conflicts.
Once a task is done it will find all tasks depending on this task.
After checking that the task doesn't have unmet dependencies it will
transition the task from blocked to runnable state for the task to
be picked up on a subsequent task start.
Currently only one task can be running at a time. This can be
improved upon in later releases without changes to the higher level
API.
The initial goal for this background tasks is to allow a rebalance
to run in the background. This will be implemented in a subsequent PR.
Previously we would create foreign keys to reference table in an extra
fast way at the end of a shard move. This uses that same logic to also
do it for foreign keys between distributed tables.
Fixes#6141
Introduces a new GUC named citus.skip_constraint_validation, which basically skips constraint validation when set to on.
For some several places that we hack to skip the foreign key validation phase, now we use this GUC.
When introducing our overrides of pg_cancel_backend and
pg_terminate_backend we accidentally did that in such a way that we
cannot call the original pg_cancel_backend and pg_terminate_backend from
C anymore. This happened because we defined the exact same symbols in
our shared library as postgres does in its own binary.
This fixes that by using a different names for the C function than for
the SQL function.
Making this work in all upgrade and downgrade scenarios is not trivial
though, because we actually need to remove the C function definition.
Postgres errors in two different times when the symbol that a C function
wants to call is not defined in the library it expects it in:
1. When creating the SQL function definition
2. When calling the SQL function
Item 1 causes an issue when creating our extension for the first time.
We then go execute all the migrations that we have. So if the 11.0
migration contains a SQL function definition that still references the
pg_cancel_backend symbol, that migration will fail. This issue is solved
by actually changing the SQL definition in the old migration.
This is not enough to fix all issues though. Item 2 causes an issue
after an upgrade to 11.1, because it won't have the new definition of
the SQL function. This is solved by recreating the SQL functions in the
migration to 11.1. That way it gets the new definition.
Then finally there's the case of downgrades. To continue to make our
pg_cancel_backend SQL function work after downgrading, we will need to
make a patch release for 11.0 that includes the new citus_cancel_backend
symbol. This is done in a separate commit.
DESCRIPTION:
This PR adds support for 'Deferred Drop' and robust 'Shard Cleanup' for Splits.
Common Infrastructure
This PR introduces new common infrastructure so as any operation that wants robust cleanup of resources can register with the cleaner and have the resources cleaned appropriately based on a specified policy. 'Shard Split' is the first consumer using this new infrastructure.
Note : We only support adding 'shards' as resources to be cleaned-up right now but the framework will be extended to support other resources in future.
Deferred Drop for Split
Deferred Drop Support ensures that shards undergoing split are not dropped inline as part of operation but dropped later when no active read queries are running on shard. This helps with :
Avoids any potential deadlock scenarios that can cause long running Split operation to rollback.
Avoids Split operation blocking writes and then getting blocked (due to running queries on the shard) when trying to drop shards.
Deferred drop is the new default behavior going forward.
Shard Cleaner Extension
Shard Cleaner is a background task responsible for deferred drops in case of 'Move' operations.
The cleaner has been extended to ensure robust cleanup of shards (dummy shards and split children) in case of a failure based on the new infrastructure mentioned above. The cleaner also handles deferred drop for 'Splits'.
TESTING:
New test ''citus_split_shard_by_split_points_deferred_drop' to test deferred drop support.
New test 'failure_split_cleanup' to test shard cleanup with failures in different stages.
Update 'isolation_blocking_shard_split and isolation_non_blocking_shard_split' for deferred drop.
Added non-deferred drop version of existing tests : 'citus_split_shard_no_deferred_drop' and 'citus_non_blocking_splits_no_deferred_drop'
* Fix issue : 6109 Segfault or (assertion failure) is possible when using a SQL function
* DESCRIPTION: Ensures disallowing the usage of SQL functions referencing to a distributed table and prevents a segfault.
Using a SQL function may result in segmentation fault in some cases.
This change fixes the issue by throwing an error message when a SQL function cannot be handled.
Fixes#6109.

PG15 allows numeric scale to be negative or greater than precision. This
causes issues and we may end up routing queries to a wrong shard due to
differing hash results after rounding.
Formerly, when specifying NUMERIC(precision, scale), the scale had to be
in the range [0, precision], which was per SQL spec. PG15 extends the
range of allowed scales to [-1000, 1000].
A negative scale implies rounding before the decimal point. For
example, a column might be declared with a scale of -3 to round values
to the nearest thousand. Note that the display scale remains
non-negative, so in this case the display scale will be zero, and all
digits before the decimal point will be displayed.

Pre PG15, renaming child triggers on partitions is allowed. When
creating a trigger in a distributed parent partitioned table, the
triggers on the shards of the partitions have the same name with
the triggers on the corresponding parent shards of the parent
table. Therefore, they don't have the same appended shard id as
the shard id of the partition. Hence, when trying to rename a
child trigger on a partition of a distributed table, we can't
correctly find the triggers on the shards of the partition in
order to rename them since we append a different shard id to the
name of the trigger. Since we can't find the trigger we get a
misleading error of inexistent trigger.
In this commit we prohibit renaming child triggers on distributed
partitions altogether.
Sometimes in CI our isolation_citus_dist_activity test fails randomly

I intended to fix this with #6263, but the fix turned out to be
insufficient. This PR tries to address the issue by setting
distributedCommandOriginator correctly in more situations. However, even
with this change it's still possible to reproduce the flaky test in CI.
In any case this should fix at least some instances of this issue.
In passing this changes the isolation_citus_dist_activity test to allow
running it multiple times in a row.
PRE PG15, Renaming the parent triggers on partitioned tables doesn't
recurse to renaming the child triggers on the partitions as well.
In PG15, Renaming triggers on partitioned tables
recurses to renaming the triggers on the partitions as well.
Add an upgrade test to make sure we are not breaking anything
with distributed triggers on distributed partitioned tables.

80ba4bb383538a2ee846fece6a7b8da9518b6866
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.
In commit 31faa88a4e I removed some features of the rebalance progress
monitor. I did this because the plan was to remove the foreground shard
rebalancer later in the PR that would add the background shard
rebalancer. So, I didn't want to spend time fixing something that we
would throw away anyway.
As it turns out we're not removing the foreground shard rebalancer after
all, so it made sens to fix the stuff that I broke. This PR does that.
For the most part this commit reverts the changes in commit 31faa88a4e.
It's not a full revert though, because it keeps the improved tests and
the changes to `citus_move_shard_placement`.
Before, this was the default mode for CustomScan providers.
Now, the default is to assume that they can't project.
This causes performance penalties due to adding unnecessary
Result nodes.
Hence we use the newly added flag, CUSTOMPATH_SUPPORT_PROJECTION
to get it back to how it was.
In PG15 support branch we created explain functions to ignore
the new Result nodes, so we undo that in this commit.

Apparently VACUUM is not as reliable in cleaning up as we thought. This
increases the range of allowed values. Important to note is that the
range is still completely outside of the allowed range of the initial
size. So we know for sure that some data was cleaned up.

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.
On CI our citus_split_shard_columnar_partitioned test would sometimes
randomly fail like this:

This is a harmless diff due to a missing column in the order by list.
This fixes that by adding the nodeport as a tiebreaker.
Added create_distributed_table_concurrently which is nonblocking variant of create_distributed_table.
It bases on the split API which takes advantage of logical replication to support nonblocking split operations.

The reason for this is that citus_dist_stat_activity sometimes shows the
query that it uses itself to get the data from pg_stat_activity. This is
actually a bug, because it's a worker query and thus shouldn't show up
there. To try and solve this bug, we remove two small opportunities for a
race condition. These race conditions could happen when the backenddata
was marked as active, but the distributedCommandOriginator was not set
correctly yet/anymore. There was an opportunity for this to happen both
during connection start and shutdown.

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.
Our python based tests didn't always copy the normalized files after the
regress run. I had the problem where running the following command would
result in non-normalized files in the expected directory after running
our PG upgrade tests locally:
```
cp src/test/regress/{results,expected}/upgrade_list_citus_objects.out
```
This PR fixes that by always running `copy_modified` even if the tests
fail. The same was already being done for our perl based tests at the
end of the `pg_regress_multi.pl` file.
We currently do a `pg_relation_total_size('t1') + pg_relation_total_size('t2') + ..` on shard lists, especially when rebalancing the shards. This in some cases goes huge. With this PR, we basically use a SUM for all table sizes, instead of using thousands of pluses.

This error is not completely harmless, because based on the logs it mean
that our cleanup logic failed, which in turn means that replication
slots are left around:
```
2022-08-24 16:01:29.247 UTC [1219] ERROR: XX000: tuple concurrently updated

```
However, we have other mechanisms to clean up any leftovers in case of a
failed cleanup. So it's not that big of a problem.
The reason we run into this error is arguably because of a Postgres bug,
so I created a patch for Postgres that fixes this.
While we wait for this (or a similar) patch to be merged, this PR
disables the flaky test. There's still a test that tests in case of a
connection "kill" instead of a "cancel", so I don't think we lose very
important coverage by disabling this test. When trying to reproduce this
I only hit this issue in the cancel case, so I don't think there's a
need to disable the kill case for now.
In CI sometimes failure_connection_establishment would fail with the
following error:
```diff

```
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.
Sometimes in CI multi_transaction_recovery would fail with the following
error:
```diff

The reason for this was that when choosing `selected_shard` we didn't
ensure that it was actually located on the node that we were moving it
from. Instead we simply picked the first shard for the table that was
returned by the query.
To fix this issue this PR adds a filter to only choose shards that are
located on the intended node.
Our isolation_distributed_deadlock_detection test would fail randomly in
CI in three different ways.
The first type of failure looked like this:
```diff
check_distributed_deadlocks
---------------------------
t
(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.

This is a harmless change in output where the relation size after
vacuuming was slightly more than we expected. This changes the size
checks for the local_vacuum_table to allow a wider range of values.
It uses the same trick as #6216 to show the actual value when it's
outside this valid range, which is useful if this test ever starts
failing again.
When trying to fix#6245 I realized that multi_utilities was leaking
some tables that it created during the test. This fixes that by
creating all these tables in a schema that's dedicated for this test.
When running `make check-base` locally it would fail with two different
errors.
The first one was this:
```diff
SELECT create_distributed_table('pg_class', 'relname');
-ERROR: cannot create a citus table from a catalog table
+ERROR: deadlock detected
+DETAIL: Process 28950 waits for ExclusiveLock on relation 16551 of database 16384; blocked by process 28951.
+Process 28951 waits for RowExclusiveLock on relation 1259 of database 16384; blocked by process 28950.
+HINT: See server log for query details.
SELECT create_reference_table('pg_class');
```
This happened because multi_behavioral_analytics_create_table and
multi_create_table were being run in parallel. Running them separately
resolved this issue.
The second one was this:
```diff
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION wait_until_metadata_sync(timeout INTEGER DEFAULT 15000)
RETURNS void
LANGUAGE C STRICT
AS 'citus';
+ERROR: duplicate key value violates unique constraint "pg_proc_proname_args_nsp_index"
+DETAIL: Key (proname, proargtypes, pronamespace)=(wait_until_metadata_sync, 23, 2200) already exists.
-- Add some helper functions for sending commands to mitmproxy
```
Which was because failure_test_helpers and multi_test_helpers were
trying to create the same function at the exact same time. The easy fix
here is to simply not create this function in the failure_test_helpers
file. This is fine, because any test schedule that runs
failure_test_helpers also runs multi_test_helpers.
I upgraded my OS to Ubuntu 22.04 a while back and since then some tests
order output slightly differently. I think it might be because of the
glibc upgrade that changed ordering for things like underscores and
spaces.
Changing the locale to C.UTF-8 solves this issue.

Postgres supports JSON_TABLE feature on PG 15.
We treat JSON_TABLE the same as correlated functions (e.g., recurring tuples).
In the end, for multi-shard JSON_TABLE commands, we apply the same
restrictions as reference tables (e.g., cannot be in the outer part of
an outer join etc.)

In CI multi_replicate_reference_table would sometimes fail like this:
```diff
-- detects correctly that referecence table doesn't have replica identity
SELECT replicate_reference_tables();
-ERROR: cannot use logical replication to transfer shards of the relation initially_not_replicated_reference_table since it doesn't have a REPLICA IDENTITY or PRIMARY KEY
+ERROR: cannot use logical replication to transfer shards of the relation ref_table since it doesn't have a REPLICA IDENTITY or PRIMARY KEY
DETAIL: UPDATE and DELETE commands on the shard will error out during logical replication unless there is a REPLICA IDENTITY or PRIMARY KEY.
HINT: If you wish to continue without a replica identity set the shard_transfer_mode to 'force_logical' or 'block_writes'.
```
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.
Example of failing test: https://app.circleci.com/pipelines/github/citusdata/citus/26387/workflows/fc3196e7-ddf2-4000-a70b-5ac71c836321/jobs/748940
The isolation_tenant_isolation_nonblocking test would sometimes randomly
fail in CI, because we have a limit of runtime limit of 2 minutes per test.
```
test isolation_tenant_isolation_nonblocking ... make: *** [Makefile:171: check-enterprise-isolation] Terminated
Too long with no output (exceeded 2m0s): context deadline exceeded
```
One solution would obviously be to increase the timeout, but instead I
spent some time to increase the speed of our tests by tweaking some
timings. On my local machine the time it took to run the
isolation_tenant_isolation_nonblocking test went from 75s to 15s.
So now we should easily stay within the 2 minute per test limit.
I also checked if the new settings improved other logical replication
tests, but the impect differs wildly per test. One other example of a
test that runs much quicker due to the change is
isolation_non_blocking_shard_split_fkey. But the shard move tests I
tried are impacted much less.
Example of failed tests: https://app.circleci.com/pipelines/github/citusdata/citus/26373/workflows/4fa660e4-63c8-4844-bef8-70a7bea902b7/jobs/748199

+ERROR: cannot connect to localhost:10212 to fetch intermediate results
+CONTEXT: while executing command on localhost:10211

When looking at the logs it seems like we were running out of
connections:
```

2022-08-23 14:03:52.860 UTC [21027] ERROR: cannot connect to localhost:10212 to fetch intermediate results
```
This happened with `CitusThreeWorkersManyShards` config. This test on
purpose tries to push the limits of Citus quite far. And the
`ch_benchmarks_1` test is also run in parallel with a few more ones. So
it's not too weird that it ran out of connections. This doubles the
connection limit in the arbitrary config tests to hopefully not hit this
error again.
Example of failed test: https://app.circleci.com/pipelines/github/citusdata/citus/26365/workflows/7a1b5688-85cc-4bc3-ade5-9bd1d83cd0ed/jobs/747908/parallel-runs/1
Using binary encoding can save a lot of CPU cycles, both on the sender
and on the receiver. Since the walsender and walreceiver processes are
single threaded, this can matter a lot for the throughput if they are
bottlenecked on CPU.
This feature is only available in PG14, not PG13. It should be safe to
always enable because it's only used for types that support binary
encoding according to the PG docs:
> Even when this option is enabled, only data types that have binary
> send and receive functions will be transferred in binary.
But in case it causes problems, it can still be disabled by setting
`citus.enable_binary_protocol` to `false`.
In CI our failure_connection_establishment sometimes failed randomly
with the following error:
```diff
-- verify a connection attempt was made to the intercepted node, this would have cause the
-- connection to have been delayed and thus caused a timeout
SELECT * FROM citus.dump_network_traffic() WHERE conn=0;

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
-- show that INSERT failed
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.
Example of failed test in CI: https://app.circleci.com/pipelines/github/citusdata/citus/26305/workflows/4d942b91-f83c-453c-8d9a-ae22d608e756/jobs/745071
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.
Example of failing test: https://app.circleci.com/pipelines/github/citusdata/citus/26252/workflows/1b7e5464-cca4-4ec1-99b3-48ddf25c29fa/jobs/742829
Sometimes in CI the columnar_memory test was using slightly more memory
than expected.
```diff

+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.
Failing test: https://app.circleci.com/pipelines/github/citusdata/citus/26256/workflows/c0870f66-3346-4f8d-a1d3-36dfd7c98289/jobs/743028
In the logical_replication test we test that the cleanup logic at the
start of a shard move works as expected. To do so we create a
subscription and publication slot manually. This changes the test to
make that subscription actually connect to the database that the
publication is in.
Useful for #5987#6085
By running isolation tests in parallel we're just asking for flaky
tasks. The first test might temporarily block one of the commands in the
second test, which we then detect as waiting like this:
```diff
step s2-vacuum-analyze:
VACUUM ANALYZE test_insert_vacuum;
-
+ <waiting ...>
step s1-commit:
COMMIT;
+step s2-vacuum-analyze: <... completed>
```
Debugging flaky tests is also much harder when they are run in parallel.
This PR starts running all our isolation tests sequentially.
The reason for opening this PR was me seeing this failing test:
https://app.circleci.com/pipelines/github/citusdata/citus/26194/workflows/ff57e2cf-8ac4-40fe-bc0c-74a7f8fecb53/jobs/740454
As well as having fixed a similar issue recently in #6122
* Adjust some isolation test for the recent PG commits
In 3f32395612,
Postgres starts any isolation session with `set application_name`.
However, one of the tests we had expected that it is exactly the first
command in the session. The test tries to show that even if a gpid
has not been assigned, we can show it in the citus_lock_waits graph.
Now that, it is literally not possible to have such test as gpid
would be assigned after `set application_name` command. Still,
it is good to have a test where a command is blocked on the parser
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.
Example of failing test: https://app.circleci.com/pipelines/github/citusdata/citus/25966/workflows/d472a57b-419a-4f33-b8bc-2e174a98d4d6/jobs/730576
As shown in #6196 the output of s1-view-locks is sometimes not as
expected. However, because it's output is very minimal it's hard to
understand the reason for that. This adds some more columns and
aggregates less, so we can more easily see what locks are unexpectedly
held or released.
In passing this also fixes the following flaky part of this test by excluding
locks taken by the maintenance daemon. After running it with this more
detailed output for s1-view-locks it became obvious that that was the
problem here.

This then breaks all the tests run after it as well, because we're

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.
Closes#6200
This removes some warnings that are present when building on Ubuntu 22.04.
It removes warnings on PG13 + OpenSSL 3.0. OpenSSL 3.0 has marked some

This is simply a harmless change in output due to some timing
differences. This PR makes the test output consistent by only logging
the remote ANALYZE commands, not the SET commands.
This fixes our most commonly randomly failing failure test. The failing
diff is as follows:
```diff
SELECT citus.mitmproxy('conn.onQuery(query="fetch_intermediate_results").kill()');
mitmproxy

INSERT INTO target_table SELECT * FROM source_table;
-ERROR: connection to the remote node localhost:xxxxx failed with the following error: connection not open

```
As far as I can tell this is the cause of a race condition: After killing
fetch_intermediate_results on worker 9060, the previously created data
file gets cleaned up. The fetch_intermediate_results call that's sent
to worker 57637 will be cancelled and rolled back soon because of the
failure on the other connection. But if that fetch_intermediate_results
call is able to connect to 9060 before it is cancelled, it won't find
the file it's looking for there anymore. So while it's not the error we
expect, it does indicate that we succeeded.
To avoid this issue instead of killing the fetch_intermediate_results
call directly, we kill the COPY command that it uses to do the fetch.
This results in stable output as can be seen here, where 227 runs of
failure_insert_select_repartition succeeded:
https://app.circleci.com/pipelines/github/citusdata/citus/26168/workflows/9c64a3b6-f46c-4725-9fb4-8f6a2d00a023/jobs/739389
To be clear this changes the test to affects the opposite
fetch_intermediate_results call. This kills the fetch_intermediate_results
call of worker 57637, instead of killing the fetch_intermediate_results call
on worker 9060.
Example of failing test: https://app.circleci.com/pipelines/github/citusdata/citus/26147/workflows/780e95ea-264a-4c9f-ad2e-cf11449a795e/jobs/738467
We're in the processes of totally changing the shard rebalancer
experience and infrastructure. Soon the shard rebalancer will include
retries, crash recovery and support for running in the background.
These improvements come at a cost though, the way the
get_rebalance_progress UDF currently works is very hard to replicate
with this new structure. This is mostly because the old behaviour
doesn't really make sense anymore with this new infrastructure. A new
and better way to track the progress will be included as part of the new
infrastructure.
This PR is in preparation of the new code rebalancer experience.
It changes the get_rebalance_progress UDF to only display the moves that
are in progress at the moment, not the ones that happened in the past or
that are planned in the future. Another option would have been to
completely remove the current get_rebalance_progress functionality and
point people to the new way of tracking progress. But old blogposts
still reference the old UDF and users might have some automation on top
of it. Showing the progress of the current moves is fairly simple to
achieve, even with the new infrastructure.
So this PR is a kind of compromise: It doesn't have complete feature
parity with the old get_rebalance_progress, but the most common use
cases will still work.
There's also an advantage of the change: You can now see progress of
shard moves that were triggered by calling citus_move_shard_placement
manually. Instead of only being able to see progress of moves that were
initiated using get_rebalance_table_shards.
We used to rely on a seperate session to add the coordinator.
However, that might prevent the existing sessions to get
assigned proper gpids, which causes flaky tests.
This removes a flaky test that I introduced in #3868 after I fixed the
issue described in #3622. This test is sometimes fails randomly in CI.
The way it fails indicates that there might be some bug: A connection
breaks after rolling back to a savepoint.
I tried reproducing this issue locally, but I wasn't able to. I don't
understand what causes the failure.
Things that I tried were:
1. Running the test with:
```sql
SET citus.force_max_query_parallelization = true;
```
2. Running the test with:
```sql
SET citus.max_adaptive_executor_pool_size = 1;
```
3. Running the test in parallel with the same tests that it is run in
parallel with in multi_schedule.
None of these allowed me to reproduce the issue locally.
So I think it's time to give on fixing this test and simply remove the
test. The regression that this test protects against seems very unlikely
to reappear, since in #3868 I also added a big comment about the need
for the newly added `UnclaimConnection` call. So, I think the need for
the test is quite small, and removing it will make our CI less flaky.
In case the cause of the bug ever gets found, I tracked the bug in #6189

DESCRIPTION: Fix reference table lock contention
Dropping and creating reference tables unintentionally blocked on each other due to the use of an ExclusiveLock for both the Drop and conditionally copying existing reference tables to (new) nodes.
The patch does the following:
- Lower lock lever for dropping (reference) tables to `ShareLock` so they don't self conflict
- Treat reference tables and distributed tables equally and acquire the colocation lock when dropping any table that is in a colocation group
- Perform the precondition check for copying reference tables twice, first time with a lower lock that doesn't conflict with anything. Could have been a NoLock, however, in preparation for dropping a colocation group, it is an `AccessShareLock`
During normal operation the first check will always pass and we don't have to escalate that lock. Making it that we won't be blocked on adding and remove reference tables. Only after a node addition the first `create_reference_table` will still need to acquire an `ExclusiveLock` on the colocation group to perform the copy.
This is a refactoring PR that starts using our new hash table creation
helper function. It adds a few more macros for ease of use, because C
doesn't have default arguments. It also adds a macro to check if a
struct contains automatic padding bytes. No struct that is hashed using
tag_hash should have automatic padding bytes, because those bytes are
undefined and thus using them to create a hash will result in undefined
behaviour (usually a random hash).
**Intro**
This adds support to Citus to change the CPU priority values of
backends. This is created with two main usecases in mind:
1. Users might want to run the logical replication part of the shard moves
or shard splits at a higher speed than they would do by themselves.
This might cause some small loss of DB performance for their regular
queries, but this is often worth it. During high load it's very possible
that the logical replication WAL sender is not able to keep up with the
WAL that is generated. This is especially a big problem when the
machine is close to running out of disk when doing a rebalance.
2. Users might have certain long running queries that they don't impact
their regular workload too much.
**Be very careful!!!**
Using CPU priorities to control scheduling can be helpful in some cases
to control which processes are getting more CPU time than others.
However, due to an issue called "[priority inversion][1]" it's possible that
using CPU priorities together with the many locks that are used within
Postgres cause the exact opposite behavior of what you intended. This
is why this PR only allows the PG superuser to change the CPU priority
of its own processes. Currently it's not recommended to set `citus.cpu_priority`
directly. Currently the only recommended interface for users is the setting
called `citus.cpu_priority_for_logical_replication_senders`. This setting
controls CPU priority for a very limited set of processes (the logical
replication senders). So, the dangers of priority inversion are also limited
with when using it for this usecase.
**Background**
Before reading the rest it's important to understand some basic
background regarding process CPU priorities, because they are a bit
counter intuitive. A lower priority value, means that the process will
be scheduled more and whatever it's doing will thus complete faster. The
default priority for processes is 0. Valid values are from -20 to 19
inclusive. On Linux a larger difference between values of two processes
will result in a bigger difference in percentage of scheduling.
**Handling the usecases**
Usecase 1 can be achieved by setting `citus.cpu_priority_for_logical_replication_senders`
to the priority value that you want it to have. It's necessary to set
this both on the workers and the coordinator. Example:
```
citus.cpu_priority_for_logical_replication_senders = -10
```
Usecase 2 can with this PR be achieved by running the following as
superuser. Note that this is only possible as superuser currently
due to the dangers mentioned in the "Be very carefull!!!" section.
And although this is possible it's **NOT** recommended:
```sql
ALTER USER background_job_user SET citus.cpu_priority = 5;
```
**OS configuration**
To actually make these settings work well it's important to run Postgres
with more a more permissive value for the 'nice' resource limit than
Linux will do by default. By default Linux will not allow a process to
set its priority lower than it currently is, even if it was lower when
the process originally started. This capability is necessary to reset
the CPU priority to its original value after a transaction finishes.
Depending on how you run Postgres this needs to be done in one of two
ways:
If you use systemd to start Postgres all you have to do is add a line
like this to the systemd service file:
```conf
LimitNice=+0 # the + is important, otherwise its interpreted incorrectly as 20
```
If that's not the case you'll have to configure `/etc/security/limits.conf`
like so, assuming that you are running Postgres as the `postgres` OS user:
```
postgres soft nice 0
postgres hard nice 0
```
Finally you'd have add the following line to `/etc/pam.d/common-session`
```
session required pam_limits.so
```
These settings would allow to change the priority back after setting it
to a higher value.
However, to actually allow you to set priorities even lower than the
default priority value you would need to change the values in the
config to something lower than 0. So for example:
```conf
LimitNice=-10
```
or
```
postgres soft nice -10
postgres hard nice -10
```
If you use WSL2 you'll likely have to do another thing. You have to
open a new shell, because when PAM is only used during login, and
WSL2 doesn't actually log you in. You can force a login like this:
```
sudo su $USER --shell /bin/bash
```

The long description of the `citus.distributed_deadlock_detection_factor`
setting was incorrectly stating that 1000 would disable it. Instead -1
is the value that disables distributed deadlock detection.
When introducing non-blocking shard split functionality it was based
heavily on the non-blocking shard moves. However, differences between
usage was slightly to big to be able to reuse the existing functions
easily. So, most logical replication code was simply copied to dedicated
shard split functions and modified for that purpose.
This PR tries to create a more generic logical replication
infrastructure that can be used by both shard splits and shard moves.
There's probably more code sharing possible in the future, but I believe
this is at least a good start and addresses the lowest hanging fruit.
This also adds a CreateSimpleHash function that makes creating the
most common type of hashmap common.
This creates consistent test output for isolation tests that involve
`CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY`. `CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY` is sometimes
temporarily detected as blocking, even though it will complete without any other
queries needing to be run. This change makes sure that we wait until that happens
without running any other queries in the meantime. This way we always get consistent
output. The way we do that is addressed by using an empty step in the same
session as the `CREATE INDEX CONCURRENLTY` command. Doing so forces
the isolation tester to wait until the command is finished and not continue with
steps from other sessions. This is [the recommended approach by Postgres][1].
There's two separate cases which are addressed in slightly different ways:
1. If `CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY` is actually blocked on another session: Add an
empty step right after the commit of blocking session.
e.g. `"s2-ddl-create-index-concurrently" "s1-commit" "s2-empty"`
2. If it's not actually blocked on another session: Add [an asterisk marker][2] to make
it look like it's blocked (because sometimes this happens randomly) and right
after that we add an empty step to trigger waiting.
e.g. `"s2-ddl-create-index-concurrently"(*) "s2-empty" "s1-commit"`
In passing this also enables isolation tests that were disabled due to a
bug that has already been fixed for a while.

--------------------
Below is the commit message from PostgreSQL 15 commit
d1029bb5a26cb84b116b0dee4dde312291359f2a :
pg_regress has long had provisions for dynamically substituting path
names into regression test scripts and result files, but use of that
feature has always been a serious pain in the neck, mainly because
updating the result files requires tedious manual editing. Let's
get rid of that in favor of passing down the paths in environment
variables.
In addition to being easier to maintain, this way is capable of
dealing with path names that require escaping at runtime, for example
paths containing single-quote marks. (There are other stumbling
blocks in the way of actually building in a path that looks like
that, but removing this one seems like a good thing to do.) The key
coding rule that makes that possible is to concatenate pieces of a
dynamically-variable string using psql's \set command, and then use
the :'variable' notation to quote and escape the string for the next
level of interpretation.
In hopes of making this change more transparent to "git blame",
I've split it into two steps. This commit adds the necessary
pg_regress.c support and changes all the *.source files in-place
so that they no longer require any dynamic translation. The next
commit will just "git mv" them into the regular sql/ and expected/
directories.
Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/1655733.1639871614@sss.pgh.pa.us
PostgreSQL 15 dropped usage of .source files that are used to generate
.sql and .out files by replacing some placeholders with the actual
values before test runs. Instead, the information is passed from
pg_regress to the .sql and .out files directly via env variables. Those
variables are read via \getenv psql command in relevant test files.
PostgreSQL 15 commit d1029bb5a26cb84b116b0dee4dde312291359f2a introduced
some changes to pg_regress binary that allowed this to happen. However
this change is not backported to earlier versions of PG, and thus we
come up with a similar mechanism in pg_regress_multi that works in all
available PG versions.
When using `citus.replicate_reference_tables_on_activate = off`,
reference tables need to be replicated later. This can be done using the
`replicate_reference_tables()` UDF. However, this function only allowed
blocking replication. This changes the function to default to logical
replication instead, and allows choosing any of our existing shard
transfer modes.
DESCRIPTION: Use faster custom copy logic for non-blocking shard moves
Non-blocking shard moves consist of two main phases:
1. Initial data copy
2. Catchup phase
This changes the first of these phases significantly. Previously we used the
copy logic provided by postgres subscriptions. This meant we didn't have
to implement it ourselves, but it came with the downside of little control.
When implementing shard splits we needed more control to even make it
work, so we implemented our own logic for copying data between nodes.
This PR starts using that logic for non-blocking shard moves. Doing so
has four main advantages:
1. It uses COPY in binary format when possible, which is cheaper to encode
and decode. Furthermore it very often results in less data that needs to
be sent over the network.
2. It allows us to create the primary key (or other replica identity) after doing
the initial data copy. This should give some speed up over the total run,
because creating an index is bulk is much faster than incrementally building it.
3. It doesn't require a replication slot per parallel copy. Increasing the maximum
number of replication slots uses resources in postgres, even if they are not used.
So reducing the number of replication slots that shard moves need is nice.
4. Logical replication table_sync workers are slow to start up, so if lots of shards
need to be copied that can make it quite slow. This can happen easily when
combining Postgres partitioning with Citus.
master_drain_node in distributed_triggers.sql test file takes too
long to execute. It is directly dependent on the shard count.
Hence I reduced shard count from 32 to 4 (default in tests),
since this doesn't affect the validity of the tests.
This change reduces the setup time of our minimal schedules in two ways:
1. Don't run `multi_cluster_managament`, but instead run a much smaller
sql file with almost the same results. `multi_cluster_management`
adds and removes lots of nodes and tests all kinds of failure
scenarios. This is not needed for the minimal schedules. The only
reason we were using it there was to get a working cluster of the
layout that the tests expected. The new `minimal_cluster_management`
test achieves this with much less work, going from ~2s to ~0.5s.
2. Parallelize a bit more of the helper tests.
We are reducing the log level here to avoid alternative test output
in PG15 because of the change in the display of SQL-standard
function's arguments in INSERT/SELECT in PG15.
The log level changes can be reverted when we drop support for PG14

The new shard copy code that was created for shard splits has some
advantages over the old shard copy code. The old code was using
worker_append_table_to_shard, which wrote to disk twice. And it also
didn't use binary copy when that was possible. Both of these issues
were fixed in the new copy code. This PR starts using this new copy
logic also for shard moves, not just for shard splits.
On my local machine I created a single shard table like this.
```sql
set citus.shard_count = 1;
create table t(id bigint, a bigint);
select create_distributed_table('t', 'id');
INSERT into t(id, a) SELECT i, i from generate_series(1, 100000000) i;
```
I then turned `fsync` off to make sure I wasn't bottlenecked by disk.
Finally I moved this shard between nodes with `citus_move_shard_placement`
with `block_writes`.
Before this PR a move took ~127s, after this PR it took only ~38s. So for this
small test this resulted in spending ~70% less time.
And I also tried the same test for a table that contained large strings:
```sql
set citus.shard_count = 1;
create table t(id bigint, a bigint, content text);
select create_distributed_table('t', 'id');
INSERT into t(id, a, content) SELECT i, i, 'aunethautnehoautnheaotnuhetnohueoutnehotnuhetncouhaeohuaeochgrhgd.athbetndairgexdbuhaobulrhdbaetoausnetohuracehousncaoehuesousnaceohuenacouhancoexdaseohusnaetobuetnoduhasneouhaceohusnaoetcuhmsnaetohuacoeuhebtokteaoshetouhsanetouhaoug.lcuahesonuthaseauhcoerhuaoecuh.lg;rcydabsnetabuesabhenth' from generate_series(1, 20000000) i;
```
While testing 5670dffd33, I realized
that we have a missing RecordNonDistTableAccessesForTask() for
local utility commands.
Although we don't have to record the relation access for local
only cases, we really want to keep the behaviour for scale-out
be the same with single node on all aspects. We wouldn't want
any single node complex transaction to work on single machine,
but not on multi node cluster. Hence, we apply the same restrictions.
For example, on a distributed cluster, the following errors, and
after this commit this errors locally as well
```SQL
CREATE TABLE ref(a int primary key);
INSERT INTO ref VALUES (1);
CREATE TABLE dist(a int REFERENCES ref(a));
SELECT create_reference_table('ref');
SELECT create_distributed_table('dist', 'a');
BEGIN;
SELECT * FROM dist;
TRUNCATE ref CASCADE;
ERROR: cannot execute DDL on table "ref" because there was a parallel SELECT access to distributed table "dist" in the same transaction
HINT: Try re-running the transaction with "SET LOCAL citus.multi_shard_modify_mode TO 'sequential';"
COMMIT;
```
We also add the comprehensive test suite and run the same locally.
Code snippet in Makefile was blocking Citus build when USE_PGXS flag was set. This was included for port to FSPG but is not needed for Citus engine and can be safely removed.
Reported bug #5803 shows that we are currently not sending the IN clause to our planner for columnar. This PR fixes it by checking for ScalarArrayOpExpr in ExtractPushdownClause so that we do not skip it. Also added a test case for this new addition.
It turns out that create_distributed_table
and citus_move/copy_shard_placement does not
work well concurrently.
To fix that, we need to acquire a lock, which
sounds like a good use of colocation lock.
However, the current usage of colocation lock is
limited to higher level UDFs like rebalance_table_shards
etc. Those usage of lock is still useful, but
we cannot acquire the same lock on citus_move_shard_placement
etc. because the coordinator connects to itself to acquire
the lock. Hence, the high level UDF blocks itself.
To fix that, we use one more colocation lock, with the placements
are the main objects to consider.
Before this commit, we required multiple copies of the
same stringInfo if we needed to append/prepend data to
the stringInfo. Now, we optionally get prefix/postfix.
For large string operations, this can save up to %10
memory.
Previously, CreateFixPartitionShardIndexNames() created all
the relevant query strings for all the shards, and executed
the large query string. And, in terms of the memory consumption,
this huge command (and its ExprContext generated while running
the command) is the main bottleneck/
With this change, we are reducing the total amount of memory
usage to almost 1/shard_count.
On my local machine, a distributed partitioned table with 120 partitions,
each 32 shards, the total memory consumption reduced from ~3GB
to ~0.1GB. And, the total execution time increased from ~28 seconds
to ~30 seconds. This seems like a good trade-off.
We used to only check whether the PID is valid
or not. However, Postgres does not necessarily
set the PID of the backend to 0 when it exists.
Instead, we need to be able to check it from procArray.
IsBackendPid() is what pg_stat_activity also relies
on for a similar purpose.
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.
use RecurseObjectDependencies api to find if an object is citus depended
make vanilla tests runnable to see if citus_depended function is working correctly
citus_locks combines the pg_locks views from all nodes and adds
global_pid, nodeid, and relation_name. The columns of citus_locks don't
change based on the Postgres version, however the pg_locks's columns do.
Postgres 14 added one more column to pg_locks (waitstart timestamptz).
citus_locks has the most expansive column set, including the newly added
column. If citus_locks is queried in a Postgres version where pg_locks
doesn't have some columns, the values for those columns in citus_locks
will be NULL
DESCRIPTION:
This PR extends support for Partitioned and Columnar tables in blocking 'citus_split_shard_by_split_points' workflow.
Columnar Support : No special handling required. Just removing checks that fails split for columnar table and adding test coverage.
Partitioned Table Support :
Skip copying of parent table as they are empty, The partitions contain data and are treated as co-located shards that will be copied separately.
Attach partitions to parent on destination after inserting new shard metadata and before creating foreign key constraints.
MISC:
Fix Bug #4949 where Blocking shard moves fails if there is a foreign key between partitioned distributed tables (from child to parent).
TEST:
Added new test 'citus_split_shards_columnar_partitioned' for splitting 'partitioned' and 'columnar + partitioned' table.
Added new test 'shard_move_constraints_blocking' to add coverage for shard move bug fix.
Updated test 'citus_split_shard_by_split_points_negative' to allow columnar and partitioned table.

Similar to #5897, one more step for running Citus with PG 15.
This PR at least make Citus run with PG 15. I have not tried running the tests with PG 15.
Shmem changes are based on 4f2400cb3f
Compile breaks are mostly due to #6008
This is a continuation of a refactor (with commit sha
2b7cf0c097) that aimed to use Citus helper
UDFs by default in iso tests.
PostgreSQL isolation test infrastructure uses some UDFs to detect
whether concurrent sessions block each other. Citus implements
alternatives to that UDF so that we are able to detect and report
distributed transactions that get blocked on the worker nodes as well.
We needed to explicitly replace PG helper functions with Citus
implementations in each isolation file. Now we replace them by default.
* Support upgrade and downgrade and separate columnar as citus_columnar extension
