This pull request addresses Issue #7846, where specific MERGE queries on
non-distributed and distributed tables can result in crashes in certain
scenarios. The issue stems from the usage of `pg_class` catalog table,
and the `FilterShardsFromPgclass` function in Citus. This function goes
through the query's jointree to hide the shards. However, in PG17,
MERGE's join quals are in a separate structure called
`mergeJoinCondition`. Therefore FilterShardsFromPgclass was not
filtering correctly in a `MERGE` command that involves `pg_class`. To
fix the issue, we handle `mergeJoinCondition` separately in PG17.

**Non-Distributed Tables:**
A MERGE query involving a non-distributed table using
`pg_catalog.pg_class` as the source may execute successfully but needs
testing to ensure stability.
**Distributed Tables:**
Performing a MERGE on a distributed table using `pg_catalog.pg_class` as
the source raises an error:
`ERROR: MERGE INTO a distributed table from Postgres table is not yet
supported`
However, in some cases, this can lead to a server crash if the
unsupported operation is not properly handled.
This is the test output from the same test conducted prior to the code
changes being implemented.

- Simplify CitusNewNode (#7434)
postgres refactored newNode() in PG 17, the main point for doing this is
the original tricks is no longer neccessary for modern compilers[1].
This does the same for Citus.
This should have no backward compatibility issues since it just replaces
palloc0fast with palloc0.
This is good for forward compatibility since palloc0fast no longer
exists in PG 17.

DESCRIPTION: Fix performance issue when using "\d tablename" on a server
with many tables
We introduce a filter to every query on pg_class to automatically remove
shards. This is useful to make sure \d and PgAdmin are not cluttered
with shards. However, the way we were introducing this filter was using
`securityQuals` which can have negative impact on query performance.
On clusters with 100k+ tables this could cause a simple "\d tablename"
command to take multiple seconds, because a skipped optimization by
Postgres causes a full table scan. This changes the code to introduce
this filter in the regular `quals` list instead of in `securityQuals`.
Which causes Postgres to use the intended optimization again.
For reference, this was initially reported as a Postgres issue by me:
https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/flat/4189982.1712785863%40sss.pgh.pa.us#b87421293b362d581ea8677e3bfea920
Since Postgres commit da9b580d files and directories are supposed to
be created with pg_file_create_mode and pg_dir_create_mode permissions
when default permissions are expected.
This fixes a failure of one of the postgres tests:
If we create file add.conf containing
```
shared_preload_libraries='citus'
```
and run postgres tests
```
TEMP_CONFIG=/path/to/add.conf make installcheck -C src/bin/pg_ctl/
```
then 001_start_stop.pl fails with
```
.../data/base/pgsql_job_cache mode must be 0750
```
in the log.
In passing this also stops creating directories that we haven't used
since Citus 7.4
This change explicitely doesn't change permissions of certificates/keys
that we create.

This change refactors the code by using generate_qualified_relation_name

Fixes#6602
This change adds a script to programatically group all includes in a
specific order. The script was used as a one time invocation to group
and sort all includes throught our formatted code. The grouping is as
follows:
- System includes (eg. `#include<...>`)
- Postgres.h (eg. `#include "postgres.h"`)
- Toplevel imports from postgres, not contained in a directory (eg.
`#include "miscadmin.h"`)
- General postgres includes (eg . `#include "nodes/..."`)
- Toplevel citus includes, not contained in a directory (eg. `#include
"citus_verion.h"`)
- Columnar includes (eg. `#include "columnar/..."`)
- Distributed includes (eg. `#include "distributed/..."`)
Because it is quite hard to understand the difference between toplevel
citus includes and toplevel postgres includes it hardcodes the list of
toplevel citus includes. In the same manner it assumes anything not
prefixed with `columnar/` or `distributed/` as a postgres include.
The sorting/grouping is enforced by CI. Since we do so with our own
script there are not changes required in our uncrustify configuration.

This pull request proposes a change to the logic used for propagating
identity columns to worker nodes in citus. Instead of creating a
dependent sequence for each identity column and changing its default
value to `nextval(seq)/worker_nextval(seq)`, this update will pass the
identity columns as-is to the worker nodes.
Please note that there are a few limitations to this change.
1. Only bigint identity columns will be allowed in distributed tables to
ensure compatibility with the DDL from any node functionality. Our
current distributed sequence implementation only allows insert
statements from all nodes for bigint sequences.
2. `alter_distributed_table` and `undistribute_table` operations will
not be allowed for tables with identity columns. This is because we do
not have a proper way of keeping sequence states consistent across the
cluster.
DESCRIPTION: Prevents using identity columns on data types other than
`bigint` on distributed tables
DESCRIPTION: Prevents using `alter_distributed_table` and
`undistribute_table` UDFs when a table has identity columns
DESCRIPTION: Fixes a bug that prevents enforcing identity column
restrictions on worker nodes
Depends on #6740Fixes#6694
DESCRIPTION: Drop `SHARD_STATE_TO_DELETE` and use the cleanup records
instead
Drops the shard state that is used to mark shards as orphaned. Now we
insert cleanup records into `pg_dist_cleanup` so "orphaned" shards will
be dropped either by maintenance daemon or internal cleanup calls. With
this PR, we make the "cleanup orphaned shards" functions to be no-op, as
they would not be needed anymore.
This PR includes some naming changes about placement functions. We don't
need functions that filter orphaned shards, as there will be no orphaned
shards anymore.
We will also be introducing a small script with this PR, for users with
orphaned shards. We'll basically delete the orphaned shard entries from
`pg_dist_placement` and insert cleanup records into `pg_dist_cleanup`
for each one of them, during Citus upgrade.
We also have a lot of flakiness fixes in this PR.

The aim of hiding shards is to hide shards from client applications.
Certain bg workers (such as pg_cron or Citus maintanince daemon)
should be treated like client applications because users can run
queries from such bg workers. And, these bg workers should follow
the similar application_name checks as client backeends.
Certain other bg workers, such as logical replication or postgres'
parallel workers, should never hide shards. They are internal
operations.
Similarly the other backend types like the walsender or
checkpointer or autovacuum should never hide shards.
We've had custom versions of Postgres its `foreach` macro which with a
hidden ListCell for quite some time now. People like these custom
macros, because they are easier to use and require less boilerplate.
This adds similar custom versions of Postgres its `forboth` macro. Now
you don't need ListCells anymore when looping over two lists at the same
time.
TEXT SEARCH DICTIONARY objects depend on TEXT SEARCH TEMPLATE objects.
Since we do not yet support distributed TS TEMPLATE objects, we skip
dependency checks for text search templates, similar to what we do for
roles.
The user is expected to manually create the TEXT SEARCH TEMPLATE objects
before a) adding new nodes, b) creating TEXT SEARCH DICTIONARY objects.
DESCRIPTION: Implement TEXT SEARCH CONFIGURATION propagation
The change adds support to Citus for propagating TEXT SEARCH CONFIGURATION objects. TSConfig objects cannot always be created in one create statement, and instead require a create statement followed by many alter statements to get turned into the object they should represent.
To support this we add functionality to the worker to create or replace objects based on a list of statements. When the lists of the local object and the remote object correspond 1:1 we skip the creation of the object and simply mark it distributed. This is especially important for TSConfig objects as initdb pre-populates databases with a dozen configurations (for many different languages).
When the user creates a new TSConfig based on the copy of an existing configuration there is no direct link to the object copied from. Since there is no link we can't simply rely on propagating the dependencies to the worker and send a qualified
With this commit, rebalancer backends are identified by application_name = citus_rebalancer
and the regular internal backends are identified by application_name = citus_internal
With this commit we've started to propagate sequences and shell
tables within the object dependency resolution. So, ensuring any
dependencies for any object will consider shell tables and sequences
as well. Separate logics for both shell tables and sequences have
been removed.
Since both shell tables and sequences logic were implemented as a
part of the metadata handling before that logic, we were propagating
them while syncing table metadata. With this commit we've divided
metadata (which means anything except shards thereafter) syncing
logic into multiple parts and implemented it either as a part of
ActivateNode. You can check the functions called in ActivateNode
to check definition of different metadata.
Definitions of start_metadata_sync_to_node and citus_activate_node
have also been updated. citus_activate_node will basically create
an active node with all metadata and reference table shards.
start_metadata_sync_to_node will be same with citus_activate_node
except replicating reference tables. stop_metadata_sync_to_node
will remove all the metadata. All of those UDFs need to be called
by superuser.
Dropping sequences means we need to recreate
and hence losing the sequence.
With this commit, we keep the existing sequences
such that resyncing wouldn't drop the sequence.
We do that by breaking the dependency of the sequence
from the table.

This change creates a slightly higher abstraction of the `PartitionedResultDestReceiver` where it decouples the partitioning from writing it to a file. This allows for easier reuse for other `DestReceiver`'s that would like to route different tuples to different `DestReceiver`'s.
Originally there was a lot of state kept in `PartitionedResultDestReceiver` to be able to lazily create `FileDestReceivers` when the first tuple arrived for that target. This convoluted the implementation of the processing of tuples with where they should go.
This refactor changes that where it makes the `PartitionedResultDestReceiver` completely agnostic of what kind of Receivers it is writing to. When constructed you pass it a list of `DestReceiver` compatible pointers with the length of `partitionCount`. Internally the `PartitionedResultDestReceiver` keeps track of which `DestReceiver`'s have been started or not, and start them when they first receive a tuple.
Alternatively, if the instantiating code of the `PartitionedResultDestReceiver` wants, the startup can be turned from lazily to eagerly. When the startup is eager (not lazy) all `rStartup` functions on the list of `DestReceiver`'s are called during the startup of the `PartitionedResultDestReceiver` and marked as such.
A downside of this approach is the following. On highly partitioned destinations we now need to allocate a `FileDestReceiver` for every target, _always_. When the data passed into the `PartitionedResultDestReceiver` is highly skewed to a small set of `FileDestReceiver`'s this will waste some memory. Given the small size of a `FileDestReceiver`, and the fact that actual file handles are only created during the processing of the startup of the `FileDestReceiver` I think this memory waste is not a problem. If this would become a problem we could refactor the source list into some kind of generator object which can generate the `DestReceiver`'s on the fly.
Since PG14 we can now use binary encoding for arrays and composite types
that contain user defined types. This was fixed in this commit in
Postgres: 670c0a1d47
This change starts using that knowledge, by not necessarily falling back
to text encoding anymore for those types.
While doing this and testing a bit more I found various cases where
binary encoding would fail that our checks didn't cover. This fixes
those cases and adds tests for those. It also fixes EXPLAIN ANALYZE
never using binary encoding, which was a leftover of workaround that
was not necessary anymore.
Finally, it changes the default for both `citus.enable_binary_protocol`
and `citus.binary_worker_copy_format` to `true` for PG14 and up. In our
cloud offering `binary_worker_copy_format` already was true by default.
`enable_binary_protocol` had some bug with MX and user defined types,
this bug was fixed by the above mentioned fixes.
- Add support for CRETE INDEX ... ON ONLY: Before that commit we were not sending "ONLY" option to the worker nodes at all. With this commit, "ONLY" parameter will be sent to the worker nodes if it is necessary. (#4938)
- Add support for ALTER INDEX ... ATTACH PARTITION: Attach child_index to parent_index by creating same inheritance on shard level in addition to table level. (#4980)
Before this commit, we always synced the metadata with superuser.
However, that creates various edge cases such as visibility errors
or self distributed deadlocks or complicates user access checks.
Instead, with this commit, we use the current user to sync the metadata.
Note that, `start_metadata_sync_to_node` still requires super user
because accessing certain metadata (like pg_dist_node) always require
superuser (e.g., the current user should be a superuser).
However, metadata syncing operations regarding the distributed
tables can now be done with regular users, as long as the user
is the owner of the table. A table owner can still insert non-sense
metadata, however it'd only affect its own table. So, we cannot do
anything about that.
