Use partition column's collation for range distributed tables
Don't allow non deterministic collations for hash distributed tables
CoPartitionedTables: don't compare unequal types
Previously,
- we'd push down ORDER BY, but this doesn't order intermediate results between workers
- we'd keep FILTER on master aggregate, which would raise an error about unexpected cstrings
Support for ARRAY[] expressions is limited to having a consistent shape,
eg ARRAY[(int,text),(int,text)] as opposed to ARRAY[(int,text),(float,text)] or ARRAY[(int,text),(int,text,float)]
Initialization of queryWindowClause and queryOrderByLimit "memset" underflow these variables.
It's possible due to the invalid usage sizeof this part of the program cause buffer overflow and function return data corruption in future changes.
In plain words, each distributed plan pulls the necessary intermediate
results to the worker nodes that the plan hits. This is primarily useful
in three ways.
(i) If the distributed plan that uses intermediate
result(s) is a router query, then the intermediate results are only
broadcasted to a single node.
(ii) If a distributed plan consists of only intermediate results, which
is not uncommon, the intermediate results are broadcasted to a single
node only.
(iii) If a distributed query hits a sub-set of the shards in multiple
workers, the intermediate results will be broadcasted to the relevant
node(s).
The final item (iii) becomes crucial for append/range distributed
tables where typically the distributed queries hit a small subset of
shards/workers.
To do this, for each query that Citus creates a distributed plan, we keep
track of the subPlans used in the queryTree, and save it in the distributed
plan. Just before Citus executes each subPlan, Citus first keeps track of
every worker node that the distributed plan hits, and marks every subPlan
should be broadcasted to these nodes. Later, for each subPlan which is a
distributed plan, Citus does this operation recursively since these
distributed plans may access to different subPlans, and those have to be
recorded as well.
DESCRIPTION: Expression in reference join
Fixed: #2582
This patch allows arbitrary expressions in the join clause when joining to a reference table. An example of such joins could be found in CHbenCHmark queries 7, 8, 9 and 11; `mod((s_w_id * s_i_id),10000) = su_suppkey` and `ascii(substr(c_state,1,1)) = n2.n_nationkey`. Since the join is on a reference table these queries are able to be pushed down to the workers.
To implement these queries we will widen the `IsJoinClause` predicate to not check if the expressions are a type `Var` after stripping the implicit coerciens. Instead we define a join clause when the `Var`'s in a clause come from more than 1 table.
This allows more clauses to pass into the logical planner's `MultiNodeTree(...)` planning function. To compensate for this we tighten down the `LocalJoin`, `SinglePartitionJoin` and `DualPartitionJoin` to check for direct column references when planning. This allows the planner to work with arbitrary join expressions on reference tables.
When the user picks "round-robin" policy, the aim is that the load
is distributed across nodes. However, for reference tables on the
coordinator, since local execution kicks in immediately, round-robin
is ignored.
With this change, we're excluding the placement on the coordinator.
Although the approach seems a little bit invasive because of
modifications in the placement list, that sounds acceptable.
We could have done this in some other ways such as:
1) Add a field to "Task->roundRobinPlacement" (or such), which is
updated as the first element after RoundRobinPolicy is applied.
During the execution, if that placement is local to the coordinator,
skip it and try the other remote placements.
2) On TaskAccessesLocalNode()@local_execution.c, check
task_assignment_policy, if round-robin selected and there is local
placement on the coordinator, skip it. However, task assignment is done
on planning, but this decision is happening on the execution, which
could create weird edge cases.
This change was actually already intended in #3124. However, the
postgres Makefile manually enables this warning too. This way we undo
that.
To confirm that it works two functions were changed to make use of not
having the warning anymore.
Phase 1 seeks to implement minimal infrastructure, so does not include:
- dynamic generation of support aggregates to handle multiple arguments
- configuration methods to direct aggregation strategy,
or mark an aggregate's serialize/deserialize as safe to operate across nodes
Aggregates can be distributed when:
- they have a single argument
- they have a combinefunc
- their transition type is not a pseudotype
This is necassery to support Q20 of the CHbenCHmark: #2582.
To summarize the fix: The subquery is converted into an INNER JOIN on a
table. This fixes the issue, since an INNER JOIN on a table is already
supported by the repartion planner.
The way this replacement is happening.:
1. Postgres replaces `col in (subquery)` with a SEMI JOIN (subquery) on col = subquery_result
2. If this subquery is simple enough Postgres will replace it with a
regular read from a table
3. If the subquery returns unique results (e.g. a primary key) Postgres
will convert the SEMI JOIN into an INNER JOIN during the planning. It
will not change this in the rewritten query though.
4. We check if Postgres sends us any SEMI JOINs during its join order
planning, if it doesn't we replace all SEMI JOINs in the rewritten
query with INNER JOIN (which we already support).
Postgres doesn't require you to add all columns that are in the target list to
the GROUP BY when you group by a unique column (or columns). It even actively
removes these group by clauses when you do.
This is normally fine, but for repartition joins it is not. The reason for this
is that the temporary tables don't have these primary key columns. So when the
worker executes the query it will complain that it is missing columns in the
group by.
This PR fixes that by adding an ANY_VALUE aggregate around each variable in
the target list that does is not contained in the group by or in an aggregate.
This is done only for repartition joins.
The ANY_VALUE aggregate chooses the value from an undefined row in the
group.
It looks like the logic to prevent RETURNING in reference tables to
have duplicate entries that comes from local and remote executions
leads to missing some tuples for distributed tables.
With this PR, we're ensuring to kick in the logic for reference tables
only.
* Remove unused executor codes
All of the codes of real-time executor. Some functions
in router executor still remains there because there
are common functions. We'll move them to accurate places
in the follow-up commits.
* Move GUCs to transaction mngnt and remove unused struct
* Update test output
* Get rid of references of real-time executor from code
* Warn if real-time executor is picked
* Remove lots of unused connection codes
* Removed unused code for connection restrictions
Real-time and router executors cannot handle re-using of the existing
connections within a transaction block.
Adaptive executor and COPY can re-use the connections. So, there is no
reason to keep the code around for applying the restrictions in the
placement connection logic.
We've changed the logic for pulling RTE_RELATIONs in #3109 and
non-colocated subquery joins and partitioned tables.
@onurctirtir found this steps where I traced back and found the issues.
While looking into it in more detail, we decided to expand the list in a
way that the callers get all the relevant RTE_RELATIONs RELKIND_RELATION,
RELKIND_PARTITIONED_TABLE, RELKIND_FOREIGN_TABLE and RELKIND_MATVIEW.
These are all relation kinds that Citus planner is aware of.
See #3125 for details on each item.
* Remove real-time/router executor tests-1
These are the ones which doesn't have '_%d' in the test
output files.
* Remove real-time/router executor tests-2
These are the ones which has in the test
output files.
* Move the tests outputs to correct place
* Make sure that single shard commits use 2PC on adaptive executor
It looks like we've messed the tests in #2891. Fixing back.
* Use adaptive executor for all router queries
This becomes important because when task-tracker is picked, we
used to pick router executor, which doesn't make sense.
* Remove explicit references to real-time/router executors in the tests
* JobExecutorType never picks real-time/router executors
* Make sure to go incremental in test output numbers
* Even users cannot pick real-time anymore
* Do not use real-time/router custom scans
* Get rid of unnecessary normalizations
* Reflect unneeded normalizations
* Get rid of unnecessary test output file
This completely hides `ListCell` to the user of the loop
Example usage:
```c
WorkerNode *workerNode = NULL;
foreach_ptr(workerNode, workerNodeList) {
// Do stuff with workerNode
}
```
Instead of:
```c
ListCell *workerNodeCell = NULL;
foreach(cell, workerNodeList) {
WorkerNode *workerNode = lfirst(workerNodeCell);
// Do stuff with workerNode
}
```
Areas for further optimization:
- Don't save subquery results to a local file on the coordinator when the subquery is not in the having clause
- Push the the HAVING with subquery to the workers if there's a group by on the distribution column
- Don't push down the results to the workers when we don't push down the HAVING clause, only the coordinator needs it
Fixes#520Fixes#756Closes#2047
When a function is marked as colocated with a distributed table,
we try delegating queries of kind "SELECT func(...)" to workers.
We currently only support this simple form, and don't delegate
forms like "SELECT f1(...), f2(...)", "SELECT f1(...) FROM ...",
or function calls inside transactions.
As a side effect, we also fix the transactional semantics of DO blocks.
Previously we didn't consider a DO block a multi-statement transaction.
Now we do.

/*-------------------------------------------------------------------------
*
* adaptive_executor.c
*
* The adaptive executor executes a list of tasks (queries on shards) over
* a connection pool per worker node. The results of the queries, if any,
* are written to a tuple store.
*
* The concepts in the executor are modelled in a set of structs:
*
* - DistributedExecution:
* Execution of a Task list over a set of WorkerPools.
* - WorkerPool
* Pool of WorkerSessions for the same worker which opportunistically
* executes "unassigned" tasks from a queue.
* - WorkerSession:
* Connection to a worker that is used to execute "assigned" tasks
* from a queue and may execute unasssigned tasks from the WorkerPool.
* - ShardCommandExecution:
* Execution of a Task across a list of placements.
* - TaskPlacementExecution:
* Execution of a Task on a specific placement.
* Used in the WorkerPool and WorkerSession queues.
*
* Every connection pool (WorkerPool) and every connection (WorkerSession)
* have a queue of tasks that are ready to execute (readyTaskQueue) and a
* queue/set of pending tasks that may become ready later in the execution
* (pendingTaskQueue). The tasks are wrapped in a ShardCommandExecution,
* which keeps track of the state of execution and is referenced from a
* TaskPlacementExecution, which is the data structure that is actually
* added to the queues and describes the state of the execution of a task
* on a particular worker node.
*
* When the task list is part of a bigger distributed transaction, the
* shards that are accessed or modified by the task may have already been
* accessed earlier in the transaction. We need to make sure we use the
* same connection since it may hold relevant locks or have uncommitted
* writes. In that case we "assign" the task to a connection by adding
* it to the task queue of specific connection (in
* AssignTasksToConnections). Otherwise we consider the task unassigned
* and add it to the task queue of a worker pool, which means that it
* can be executed over any connection in the pool.
*
* A task may be executed on multiple placements in case of a reference
* table or a replicated distributed table. Depending on the type of
* task, it may not be ready to be executed on a worker node immediately.
* For instance, INSERTs on a reference table are executed serially across
* placements to avoid deadlocks when concurrent INSERTs take conflicting
* locks. At the beginning, only the "first" placement is ready to execute
* and therefore added to the readyTaskQueue in the pool or connection.
* The remaining placements are added to the pendingTaskQueue. Once
* execution on the first placement is done the second placement moves
* from pendingTaskQueue to readyTaskQueue. The same approach is used to
* fail over read-only tasks to another placement.
*
* Once all the tasks are added to a queue, the main loop in
* RunDistributedExecution repeatedly does the following:
*
* For each pool:
* - ManageWorkPool evaluates whether to open additional connections
* based on the number unassigned tasks that are ready to execute
* and the targetPoolSize of the execution.
*
* Poll all connections:
* - We use a WaitEventSet that contains all (non-failed) connections
* and is rebuilt whenever the set of active connections or any of
* their wait flags change.
*
* We almost always check for WL_SOCKET_READABLE because a session
* can emit notices at any time during execution, but it will only
* wake up WaitEventSetWait when there are actual bytes to read.
*
* We check for WL_SOCKET_WRITEABLE just after sending bytes in case
* there is not enough space in the TCP buffer. Since a socket is
* almost always writable we also use WL_SOCKET_WRITEABLE as a
* mechanism to wake up WaitEventSetWait for non-I/O events, e.g.
* when a task moves from pending to ready.
*
* For each connection that is ready:
* - ConnectionStateMachine handles connection establishment and failure
* as well as command execution via TransactionStateMachine.
*
* When a connection is ready to execute a new task, it first checks its
* own readyTaskQueue and otherwise takes a task from the worker pool's
* readyTaskQueue (on a first-come-first-serve basis).
*
* In cases where the tasks finish quickly (e.g. <1ms), a single
* connection will often be sufficient to finish all tasks. It is
* therefore not necessary that all connections are established
* successfully or open a transaction (which may be blocked by an
* intermediate pgbouncer in transaction pooling mode). It is therefore
* essential that we take a task from the queue only after opening a
* transaction block.
*
* When a command on a worker finishes or the connection is lost, we call
* PlacementExecutionDone, which then updates the state of the task
* based on whether we need to run it on other placements. When a
* connection fails or all connections to a worker fail, we also call
* PlacementExecutionDone for all queued tasks to try the next placement
* and, if necessary, mark shard placements as inactive. If a task fails
* to execute on all placements, the execution fails and the distributed
* transaction rolls back.
*
* For multi-row INSERTs, tasks are executed sequentially by
* SequentialRunDistributedExecution instead of in parallel, which allows
* a high degree of concurrency without high risk of deadlocks.
* Conversely, multi-row UPDATE/DELETE/DDL commands take aggressive locks
* which forbids concurrency, but allows parallelism without high risk
* of deadlocks. Note that this is unrelated to SEQUENTIAL_CONNECTION,
* which indicates that we should use at most one connection per node, but
* can run tasks in parallel across nodes. This is used when there are
* writes to a reference table that has foreign keys from a distributed
* table.
*
* Execution finishes when all tasks are done, the query errors out, or
* the user cancels the query.

*/
All the commits involved here:
* Initial unified executor prototype
* Latest changes
* Fix rebase conflicts to master branch
* Add missing variable for assertion
* Ensure that master_modify_multiple_shards() returns the affectedTupleCount
* Adjust intermediate result sizes
The real-time executor uses COPY command to get the results
from the worker nodes. Unified executor avoids that which
results in less data transfer. Simply adjust the tests to lower
sizes.
* Force one connection per placement (or co-located placements) when requested
The existing executors (real-time and router) always open 1 connection per
placement when parallel execution is requested.
That might be useful under certain circumstances:
(a) User wants to utilize as much as CPUs on the workers per
distributed query
(b) User has a transaction block which involves COPY command
Also, lots of regression tests rely on this execution semantics.
So, we'd enable few of the tests with this change as well.
* For parameters to be resolved before using them
For the details, see PostgreSQL's copyParamList()
* Unified executor sorts the returning output
* Ensure that unified executor doesn't ignore sequential execution of DDLJob's
Certain DDL commands, mainly creating foreign keys to reference tables,
should be executed sequentially. Otherwise, we'd end up with a self
distributed deadlock.
To overcome this situaiton, we set a flag `DDLJob->executeSequentially`
and execute it sequentially. Note that we have to do this because
the command might not be called within a transaction block, and
we cannot call `SetLocalMultiShardModifyModeToSequential()`.
This fixes at least two test: multi_insert_select_on_conflit.sql and
multi_foreign_key.sql
Also, I wouldn't mind scattering local `targetPoolSize` variables within
the code. The reason is that we'll soon have a GUC (or a global
variable based on a GUC) that'd set the pool size. In that case, we'd
simply replace `targetPoolSize` with the global variables.
* Fix 2PC conditions for DDL tasks
* Improve closing connections that are not fully established in unified execution
* Support foreign keys to reference tables in unified executor
The idea for supporting foreign keys to reference tables is simple:
Keep track of the relation accesses within a transaction block.
- If a parallel access happens on a distributed table which
has a foreign key to a reference table, one cannot modify
the reference table in the same transaction. Otherwise,
we're very likely to end-up with a self-distributed deadlock.
- If an access to a reference table happens, and then a parallel
access to a distributed table (which has a fkey to the reference
table) happens, we switch to sequential mode.
Unified executor misses the function calls that marks the relation
accesses during the execution. Thus, simply add the necessary calls
and let the logic kick in.
* Make sure to close the failed connections after the execution
* Improve comments
* Fix savepoints in unified executor.
* Rebuild the WaitEventSet only when necessary
* Unclaim connections on all errors.
* Improve failure handling for unified executor
- Implement the notion of errorOnAnyFailure. This is similar to
Critical Connections that the connection managament APIs provide
- If the nodes inside a modifying transaction expand, activate 2PC
- Fix few bugs related to wait event sets
- Mark placement INACTIVE during the execution as much as possible
as opposed to we do in the COMMIT handler
- Fix few bugs related to scheduling next placement executions
- Improve decision on when to use 2PC
Improve the logic to start a transaction block for distributed transactions
- Make sure that only reference table modifications are always
executed with distributed transactions
- Make sure that stored procedures and functions are executed
with distributed transactions
* Move waitEventSet to DistributedExecution
This could also be local to RunDistributedExecution(), but in that case
we had to mark it as "volatile" to avoid PG_TRY()/PG_CATCH() issues, and
cast it to non-volatile when doing WaitEventSetFree(). We thought that
would make code a bit harder to read than making this non-local, so we
move it here. See comments for PG_TRY() in postgres/src/include/elog.h
and "man 3 siglongjmp" for more context.
* Fix multi_insert_select test outputs
Two things:
1) One complex transaction block is now supported. Simply update
the test output
2) Due to dynamic nature of the unified executor, the orders of
the errors coming from the shards might change (e.g., all of
the queries on the shards would fail, but which one appears
on the error message?). To fix that, we simply added it to
our shardId normalization tool which happens just before diff.
* Fix subeury_and_cte test
The error message is updated from:
failed to execute task
To:
more than one row returned by a subquery or an expression
which is a lot clearer to the user.
* Fix intermediate_results test outputs
Simply update the error message from:
could not receive query results
to
result "squares" does not exist
which makes a lot more sense.
* Fix multi_function_in_join test
The error messages update from:
Failed to execute task XXX
To:
function f(..) does not exist
* Fix multi_query_directory_cleanup test
The unified executor does not create any intermediate files.
* Fix with_transactions test
A test case that just started to work fine
* Fix multi_router_planner test outputs
The error message is update from:
Could not receive query results
To:
Relation does not exists
which is a lot more clearer for the users
* Fix multi_router_planner_fast_path test
The error message is update from:
Could not receive query results
To:
Relation does not exists
which is a lot more clearer for the users
* Fix isolation_copy_placement_vs_modification by disabling select_opens_transaction_block
* Fix ordering in isolation_multi_shard_modify_vs_all
* Add executor locks to unified executor
* Make sure to allocate enought WaitEvents
The previous code was missing the waitEvents for the latch and
postmaster death.
* Fix rebase conflicts for master rebase
* Make sure that TRUNCATE relies on unified executor
* Implement true sequential execution for multi-row INSERTS
Execute the individual tasks executed one by one. Note that this is different than
MultiShardConnectionType == SEQUENTIAL_CONNECTION case (e.g., sequential execution
mode). In that case, running the tasks across the nodes in parallel is acceptable
and implemented in that way.
However, the executions that are qualified here would perform poorly if the
tasks across the workers are executed in parallel. We currently qualify only
one class of distributed queries here, multi-row INSERTs. If we do not enforce
true sequential execution, concurrent multi-row upserts could easily form
a distributed deadlock when the upserts touch the same rows.
* Remove SESSION_LIFESPAN flag in unified_executor
* Apply failure test updates
We've changed the failure behaviour a bit, and also the error messages
that show up to the user. This PR covers majority of the updates.
* Unified executor honors citus.node_connection_timeout
With this commit, unified executor errors out if even
a single connection cannot be established within
citus.node_connection_timeout.
And, as a side effect this fixes failure_connection_establishment
test.
* Properly increment/decrement pool size variables
Before this commit, the idle and active connection
counts were not properly calculated.
* insert_select_executor goes through unified executor.
* Add missing file for task tracker
* Modify ExecuteTaskListExtended()'s signature
* Sort output of INSERT ... SELECT ... RETURNING
* Take partition locks correctly in unified executor
* Alternative implementation for force_max_query_parallelization
* Fix compile warnings in unified executor
* Fix style issues
* Decrement idleConnectionCount when idle connection is lost
* Always rebuild the wait event sets
In the previous implementation, on waitFlag changes, we were only
modifying the wait events. However, we've realized that it might
be an over optimization since (a) we couldn't see any performance
benefits (b) we see some errors on failures and because of (a)
we prefer to disable it now.
* Make sure to allocate enough sized waitEventSet
With multi-row INSERTs, we might have more sessions than
task*workerCount after few calls of RunDistributedExecution()
because the previous sessions would also be alive.
Instead, re-allocate events when the connectino set changes.
* Implement SELECT FOR UPDATE on reference tables
On master branch, we do two extra things on SELECT FOR UPDATE
queries on reference tables:
- Acquire executor locks
- Execute the query on all replicas
With this commit, we're implementing the same logic on the
new executor.
* SELECT FOR UPDATE opens transaction block even if SelectOpensTransactionBlock disabled
Otherwise, users would be very confused and their logic is very likely
to break.
* Fix build error
* Fix the newConnectionCount calculation in ManageWorkerPool
* Fix rebase conflicts
* Fix minor test output differences
* Fix citus indent
* Remove duplicate sorts that is added with rebase
* Create distributed table via executor
* Fix wait flags in CheckConnectionReady
* failure_savepoints output for unified executor.
* failure_vacuum output (pg 10) for unified executor.
* Fix WaitEventSetWait timeout in unified executor
* Stabilize failure_truncate test output
* Add an ORDER BY to multi_upsert
* Fix regression test outputs after rebase to master
* Add executor.c comment
* Rename executor.c to adaptive_executor.c
* Do not schedule tasks if the failed placement is not ready to execute
Before the commit, we were blindly scheduling the next placement executions
even if the failed placement is not on the ready queue. Now, we're ensuring
that if failed placement execution is on a failed pool or session where the
execution is on the pendingQueue, we do not schedule the next task. Because
the other placement execution should be already running.
* Implement a proper custom scan node for adaptive executor
- Switch between the executors, add GUC to set the pool size
- Add non-adaptive regression test suites
- Enable CIRCLE CI for non-adaptive tests
- Adjust test output files
* Add slow start interval to the executor
* Expose max_cached_connection_per_worker to user
* Do not start slow when there are cached connections
* Consider ExecutorSlowStartInterval in NextEventTimeout
* Fix memory issues with ReceiveResults().
* Disable executor via TaskExecutorType
* Make sure to execute the tests with the other executor
* Use task_executor_type to enable-disable adaptive executor
* Remove useless code
* Adjust the regression tests
* Add slow start regression test
* Rebase to master
* Fix test failures in adaptive executor.
* Rebase to master - 2
* Improve comments & debug messages
* Set force_max_query_parallelization in isolation_citus_dist_activity
* Force max parallelization for creating shards when asked to use exclusive connection.
* Adjust the default pool size
* Expand description of max_adaptive_executor_pool_size GUC
* Update warnings in FinishRemoteTransactionCommit()
* Improve session clean up at the end of execution
Explicitly list all the states that the execution might end,
otherwise warn.
* Remove MULTI_CONNECTION_WAIT_RETRY which is not used at all
* Add more ORDER BYs to multi_mx_partitioning
If a query is router executable, it hits a single shard and therefore has a
single task associated with it. Therefore there is no need to sort the task list
that has a single element.
Also we already have a list of active shard placements, sending it in param
and reuse it.
We used to rely on PG function flatten_join_alias_vars
to resolve actual columns referenced in target entry list.
The function goes deep and finds the actual relation. This logic
usually works fine. However, when joins are given an alias, inner
relation names are not visible to target entry entry. Thus relation
resolving should stop when we the target entry column refers an
rte of an aliased join.
We stopped using PG function and provided our own flatten function.
Our assumption that strip_implicit_coercions would leave us with a bi-
nary-compatible type to that of the partition key was wrong. Instead,
we should ensure the RHS of the comparison we perform is proactively
coerced into a compatible type (at least binary compatible).
Do it in two ways (a) re-use the rte list as much as possible instead of
re-calculating over and over again (b) Limit the recursion to the relevant
parts of the query tree
Before this commit, shardPlacements were identified with shardId, nodeName
and nodeport. Instead of using nodeName and nodePort, we now use nodeId
since it apparently has performance benefits in several places in the
code.
The rule for infinite recursion is the following:
- If the query contains a subquery which is recursively planned, and
no other subqueries can be recursively planned due to correlation
(e.g., LATERAL joins), the planner keeps recursing again and again.
One interesting thing here is that even if a subquery contains only intermediate
result(s), we re-recursively plan that. In the end, the logic in the code does the following:
- Try recursive planning any of the subqueries in the query tree
- If any subquery is recursively planned, call the planner again
where the subquery is replaced with the intermediate result.
- Try recursively planning any of the queries
- If any subquery is recursively planned, call the planner again
where the subquery (in this case it is already intermediate result)
is replaced with the intermediate result.
- Try recursively planning any of the queries
- If any subquery is recursively planned, call the planner again
where the subquery (in this case it is already intermediate result)
is replaced with the intermediate result.
- Try recursively planning any of the queries
- If any subquery is recursively planned, call the planner again
where the subquery (in this case it is already intermediate result)
is replaced with the intermediate result.
......
Since flattening query may flatten outer joins' columns into coalesce expr that is
in the USING part, and that was not expected before this commit, these queries were
erroring out. It is fixed by this commit with considering coalesce expression as well.
Before this commit, round-robin task assignment policy was relying
on the taskId. Thus, even inside a transaction, the tasks were
assigned to different nodes. This was especially problematic
while reading from reference tables within transaction blocks.
Because, we had to expand the distributed transaction to many
nodes that are not necessarily already in the distributed transaction.
In this context, we define "Fast Path Planning for SELECT" as trivial
queries where Citus can skip relying on the standard_planner() and
handle all the planning.
For router planner, standard_planner() is mostly important to generate
the necessary restriction information. Later, the restriction information
generated by the standard_planner is used to decide whether all the shards
that a distributed query touches reside on a single worker node. However,
standard_planner() does a lot of extra things such as cost estimation and
execution path generations which are completely unnecessary in the context
of distributed planning.
There are certain types of queries where Citus could skip relying on
standard_planner() to generate the restriction information. For queries
in the following format, Citus does not need any information that the
standard_planner() generates:
SELECT ... FROM single_table WHERE distribution_key = X; or
DELETE FROM single_table WHERE distribution_key = X; or
UPDATE single_table SET value_1 = value_2 + 1 WHERE distribution_key = X;
Note that the queries might not be as simple as the above such that
GROUP BY, WINDOW FUNCIONS, ORDER BY or HAVING etc. are all acceptable. The
only rule is that the query is on a single distributed (or reference) table
and there is a "distribution_key = X;" in the WHERE clause. With that, we
could use to decide the shard that a distributed query touches reside on
a worker node.
We used to error out if there is a reference table
in the query participating a union. This has caused
pushdownable queries to be evaluated in coordinator.
Now we let reference tables inside union queries as long
as there is a distributed table in from clause.
Existing join checks (reference table on the outer part)
sufficient enought that we do not need check the join relation
of reference tables.
Previously we allowed task assignment policy to have affect on router queries
with only intermediate results. However, that is erroneous since the code-path
that assigns placements relies on shardIds and placements, which doesn't exists
for intermediate results.
With this commit, we do not apply task assignment policies when a router query
hits only intermediate results.
