Added a new UDF, mark_tables_colocated(), to colocate tables with the same
configuration (shard count, shard replication count and distribution column type).
Fixcitusdata/citus#886
The way postgres' explain hook is designed means that our hook is never
called during EXPLAIN EXECUTE. So, we special-case EXPLAIN EXECUTE by
catching it in the utility hook. We then replace the EXECUTE with the
original query and pass it back to Citus.
Previously, when a repair is requested on a shard, we also repair all co-located shards
of given shard, which may cause repairing already healthy shards. With this change, we
only repair given shard.
This forces prepared statements to be re-planned after changes of the
placement metadata. There's some locking issues remaining, but that's a
a separate task.
Also add regression tests verifying that invalidations take effect on
prepared statements.
This commit adds INSERT INTO ... SELECT feature for distributed tables.
We implement INSERT INTO ... SELECT by pushing down the SELECT to
each shard. To compute that we use the router planner, by adding
an "uninstantiated" constraint that the partition column be equal to a
certain value. standard_planner() distributes that constraint to all
the tables where it knows how to push the restriction safely. An example
is that the tables that are connected via equi joins.
The router planner then iterates over the target table's shards,
for each we replace the "uninstantiated" restriction, with one that
PruneShardList() handles. Do so by replacing the partitioning qual
parameter added in multi_planner() with the current shard's
actual boundary values. Also, add the current shard's boundary values to the
top level subquery to ensure that even if the partitioning qual is
not distributed to all the tables, we never run the queries on the shards
that don't match with the current shard boundaries. Finally, perform the
normal shard pruning to decide on whether to push the query to the
current shard or not.
We do not support certain SQLs on the subquery, which are described/commented
on ErrorIfInsertSelectQueryNotSupported().
We also added some locking on the router executor. When an INSERT/SELECT command
runs on a distributed table with replication factor >1, we need to ensure that
it sees the same result on each placement of a shard. So we added the ability
such that router executor takes exclusive locks on shards from which the SELECT
in an INSERT/SELECT reads in order to prevent concurrent changes. This is not a
very optimal solution, but it's simple and correct. The
citus.all_modifications_commutative can be used to avoid aggressive locking.
An INSERT/SELECT whose filters are known to exclude any ongoing writes can be
marked as commutative. See RequiresConsistentSnapshot() for the details.
We also moved the decison of whether the multiPlan should be executed on
the router executor or not to the planning phase. This allowed us to
integrate multi task router executor tasks to the router executor smoothly.
The necessity for this functionality comes from the fact that ruleutils.c is not supposed to be
used on "rewritten" queries (i.e. ones that have been passed through QueryRewrite()).
Query rewriting is the process in which views and such are expanded,
and, INSERT/UPDATE targetlists are reordered to match the physical order,
defaults etc. For the details of reordeing, see transformInsertRow().
We'd been relying on a single SET search_path command in an earlier
script, but a subsequent script RESET search_path, causing any further
bare functions to be created in the first schema on the search path.
However, starting with an older extension version and executing ALTER
scripts one at a time DOES avoid putting any functions in the public
namespace, so I wrote an upgrade script resilient to that, especially
because PostgreSQL 9.5 will error out if a function is already in the
schema it's being moved to.
Between restart (running the new code) and ALTER EXTENSION citus
UPGRADE there was an inconsistency where we assumed that
pg_dist_partition had the repmodel column set. Now we give it a default
value if the column doesn't exist yet.
With this change, we now push down foreign key constraints created during CREATE TABLE
statements. We also start to send foreign constraints during shard move along with
other DDL statements
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.
