Previously, we only checked whether the relations are colocated, but we
ignore the shard indexes. That causes certain queries still to be
accidentally router. We should enforce colocation checks for both shard
index and table colocation id to make the check restrictive enough.
For example, the following query should not be router, and after this
patch, it won't:
```SQL
SELECT
user_id
FROM
((SELECT user_id FROM raw_events_first WHERE user_id = 15) EXCEPT
(SELECT user_id FROM raw_events_second where user_id = 17)) as foo;
```
DESCRIPTION: Enforce shard level colocation with
citus.enable_non_colocated_router_query_pushdown

Pass NULL context to stringToQualifiedNameList, typeStringToTypeName
The pre-PG16 error behaviour for the following
stringToQualifiedNameList & typeStringToTypeName
was ereport(ERROR, ...)
Now with PG16 we have this context input. We preserve the same behaviour
by passing a NULL context, because of the following:
(copy paste comment from PG16)
If "context" isn't an ErrorSaveContext node, this behaves as
errstart(ERROR, domain), and the errsave() macro ends up acting
exactly like ereport(ERROR, ...).

This PR
* Addresses a concurrency issue in the probabilistic approach of tenant
monitoring by acquiring a shared lock for tenant existence checks.
* Changes `citus.stat_tenants_sample_rate_for_new_tenants` type to
double
* Renames `citus.stat_tenants_sample_rate_for_new_tenants` to
`citus.stat_tenants_untracked_sample_rate`
DESCRIPTION: Change default rebalance strategy to by_disk_size
When introducing rebalancing by disk size we didn't make it the default
initially. The main reason was, because we expected some problems with
it. We have indeed had some problems/bugs with it over the years, and
have fixed all of them. By now we're quite confident in its stability,
and that it pretty much always gives better results than by_shard_count.
So this PR makes by_disk_size the new default. We don't change the
default when some other strategy than by_shard_count is the current
default. This is in case someone defined their own rebalance strategy
and marked this as the default themselves.
Note: It explicitly does nothing during a downgrade, because there's no
way of knowing if the rebalance strategy before the upgrade was
by_disk_size or by_shard_count. And even in previous versions
by_disk_size is considered superior for quite some time.
One problem with rebalancing by disk size is that shards in newly
created collocation groups are considered extremely small. This can
easily result in bad balances if there are some other collocation groups
that do have some data. One extremely bad example of this is:
1. You have 2 workers
2. Both contain about 100GB of data, but there's a 70MB difference.
3. You create 100 new distributed schemas with a few empty tables in
them
4. You run the rebalancer
5. Now all new distributed schemas are placed on the node with that had
70MB less.
6. You start loading some data in these shards and quickly the balance
is completely off
To address this edge case, this PR changes the by_disk_size rebalance
strategy to add a a base size of 100MB to the actual size of each
shard group. This can still result in a bad balance when shard groups
are empty, but it solves some of the worst cases.
We did not properly handle the error at ownership check method, which
causes `max stack depth for errors` as in
https://github.com/citusdata/citus/issues/6980.
**Fix:**
In case of an error, we should rollback subtransaction and throw the
message with log level to `LOG_SERVER_ONLY`.
Note: We prevent logs from the client to prevent pg vanilla test
failures due to Citus logs which differs from the actual Postgres logs.

Fixes a bug related to `CREATE SCHEMA AUTHORIZATION <rolename>` for single shard
tables. We should properly fetch schema name from role specification if schema name is not given.
We need to rewind the tuplestorestate's tuple index to get correct
results on fetching scrollable with hold cursors.
`PersistHoldablePortal` is responsible for persisting out
tuplestorestate inside a with hold cursor before commiting a
transaction.
It rewinds the cursor like below (`ExecutorRewindcalls` calls `rescan`):
```c
if (portal->cursorOptions & CURSOR_OPT_SCROLL)
{
ExecutorRewind(queryDesc);
}
```
At the end, it adjusts tuple index for holdStore in the portal properly.
```c
if (portal->cursorOptions & CURSOR_OPT_SCROLL)
{
if (!tuplestore_skiptuples(portal->holdStore,
portal->portalPos,
true))
elog(ERROR, "unexpected end of tuple stream");
}
```
DESCRIPTION: Fixes incorrect results on fetching scrollable with hold
cursors.
Fixes https://github.com/citusdata/citus/issues/7010
1) For distributed tables that are not colocated.
2) When joining on a non-distribution column for colocated tables.
3) When merging into a distributed table using reference or citus-local tables as the data source.
This is accomplished primarily through the implementation of the following two strategies.
Repartition: Plan the source query independently,
execute the results into intermediate files, and repartition the files to
co-locate them with the merge-target table. Subsequently, compile a final
merge query on the target table using the intermediate results as the data
source.
Pull-to-coordinator: Execute the plan that requires evaluation at the coordinator,
run the query on the coordinator, and redistribute the resulting rows to ensure
colocation with the target shards. Direct the MERGE SQL operation to the worker
nodes' target shards, using the intermediate files colocated with the data as the
data source.
This is to implement custom cast of table partition column
type from / to `timestamptz` in time partition management UDFs, as
proposed in ticket #6454
The general idea is for a time partition column with type other than
`date`, `timestamp`, or `timestamptz`, users can provide custom
bidirectional cast between the column type and `timestamptz`, the UDFs
then will be able to create and drop time partitions for such tables.

Adds support for altering schema of single shard tables. We do that in 2
steps.
1. Undistribute the tenant table at `preprocess` step,
2. Distribute new schema if it is a distributed schema after DDLs are
propagated.
DESCRIPTION: Adds support for altering a table's schema to/from
distributed schemas.
While going over this piece of code (a long time ago) it was bothering
to me we keep a bool array with the size of shardcount to iterate only
over shards present in the list of non-pruned shards. Especially since
we keep min/max of the set shards to optimize iteration.
Postgres has the bitmapset datastructure which a) takes significantly
less space, b) has iterator functions to only iterate over set bits, c)
can efficiently skip long sequences of unset bits and d) stops quickly
once the last set bit has been reached.
I have been contemplating if it is worth to keep the minShardOffset
because of readability and the efficient skipping of unset bits,
however, I have decided to keep it -although less readable-, as there
are known usecases where 100k+ shards are pruned to single digit shards.
If these would end up at the end of `shardcount` a hotloop of zero
checks on the first iteration _could_ cause a theoretical performance
regression.
All in all, this code is using less memory in all cases where it
matters, and less cpu in most cases, while using more idiomatic
datastructures for the task at hand.
Allow using generated identity column based on int/smallint when
creating a distributed table so that applications that rely on
those data types don't break.
Inserting into / modifying such columns from workers is not allowed
but it's better than not allowing such columns altogether.
DESCRIPTION: Adds citus_schemas view
The citus_schemas view will be created in public schema if it exists, if
not the view will be created in pg_catalog.

DESCRIPTION: Turns on the GUC_REPORT flag for search_path. This results
in postgres to report the parameter status back in addition to Command
Complete packet.

postgres sends back the following packets (shown in pseudo form):
C (Command Complete) SET + **S (Parameter Status) search_path =

I fixed our currently problematic GUCS, we can merge this directly into
main as these make sense for any PG version.
There was a particular NodeConninfo issue:
Previously we would rely on the fact that NodeConninfo initial value
is an empty string. However, with PG16 enforcing same initial and boot
values, we can't use an empty initial value for NodeConninfo anymore.
Therefore we add a new flag to indicate whether we are at boot check.
citus_shard_sizes view had a shard name column we use to extract shard
id. This PR changes the column to shard id so we don't do unnecessary
string operation.
DESCRIPTION: Enabling citus_stat_tenants to support schema-based
tenants.
This pull request modifies the existing logic to enable tenant
monitoring with schema-based tenants. The changes made are as follows:
- If a query has a partitionKeyValue (which serves as a tenant
key/identifier for distributed tables), Citus annotates the query with
both the partitionKeyValue and colocationId. This allows for accurate
tracking of the query.
- If a query does not have a partitionKeyValue, but its colocationId
belongs to a distributed schema, Citus annotates the query with only the
colocationId. The tenant monitor can then easily look up the schema to
determine if it's a distributed schema and make a decision on whether to
track the query.

sharding the database based on schemas when enabled.
* Refactor the logic that automatically creates Citus managed tables
* Refactor CreateSingleShardTable() to allow specifying colocation id
instead
* Add support for schema-based-sharding via a GUC
### What this PR is about:
Add **citus.enable_schema_based_sharding GUC** to enable schema-based
sharding. Each schema created while this GUC is ON will be considered
as a tenant schema. Later on, regardless of whether the GUC is ON or
OFF, any table created in a tenant schema will be converted to a
single shard distributed table (without a shard key). All the tenant
tables that belong to a particular schema will be co-located with each
other and will have a shard count of 1.
We introduce a new metadata table --pg_dist_tenant_schema-- to do the
bookkeeping for tenant schemas:
```sql
psql> \d pg_dist_tenant_schema
Table "pg_catalog.pg_dist_tenant_schema"
┌───────────────┬─────────┬───────────┬──────────┬─────────┐
│ Column │ Type │ Collation │ Nullable │ Default │
├───────────────┼─────────┼───────────┼──────────┼─────────┤
│ schemaid │ oid │ │ not null │ │
│ colocationid │ integer │ │ not null │ │
└───────────────┴─────────┴───────────┴──────────┴─────────┘
Indexes:
"pg_dist_tenant_schema_pkey" PRIMARY KEY, btree (schemaid)
"pg_dist_tenant_schema_unique_colocationid_index" UNIQUE, btree (colocationid)
psql> table pg_dist_tenant_schema;
┌───────────┬───────────────┐
│ schemaid │ colocationid │
├───────────┼───────────────┤
│ 41963 │ 91 │
│ 41962 │ 90 │
└───────────┴───────────────┘
(2 rows)
```
Colocation id column of pg_dist_tenant_schema can never be NULL even
for the tenant schemas that don't have a tenant table yet. This is
because, we assign colocation ids to tenant schemas as soon as they
are created. That way, we can keep associating tenant schemas with
particular colocation groups even if all the tenant tables of a tenant
schema are dropped and recreated later on.
When a tenant schema is dropped, we delete the corresponding row from
pg_dist_tenant_schema. In that case, we delete the corresponding
colocation group from pg_dist_colocation as well.
### Future work for 12.0 release:
We're building schema-based sharding on top of the infrastructure that
adds support for creating distributed tables without a shard key
(https://github.com/citusdata/citus/pull/6867).
However, not all the operations that can be done on distributed tables
without a shard key necessarily make sense (in the same way) in the
context of schema-based sharding. For example, we need to think about
what happens if user attempts altering schema of a tenant table. We
will tackle such scenarios in a future PR.
We will also add a new UDF --citus.schema_tenant_set() or such-- to
allow users to use an existing schema as a tenant schema, and another
one --citus.schema_tenant_unset() or such-- to stop using a schema as
a tenant schema in future PRs.
DESCRIPTION: Fixes a crash when explain analyze is requested for a query
that is normally locally executed.
When explain analyze is requested for a query, a task with two queries
is created. Those two queries are
1. Wrapped Query --> `SELECT ... FROM
worker_save_query_explain_analyze(<query>, <explain analyze options>)`
2. Fetch Query -->` SELECT explain_analyze_output, execution_duration
FROM worker_last_saved_explain_analyze();`
When the query is locally executed a task with multiple queries causes a
crash in production. See the Assert at
57455dc64d/src/backend/distributed/executor/tuple_destination.c#:~:text=Assert(task%2D%3EqueryCount%20%3D%3D%201)%3B
This becomes a critical issue when auto_explain extension is used. When
auto_explain extension is enabled, explain analyze is automatically
requested for every query.
One possible solution could be not to create two queries for a locally
executed query. The fetch part may not have to be a query since the
values are available in local variables.
Until we enable local execution for explain analyze, it is best to
disable local execution.
Fixes#6777.
DESCRIPTION: Fixes a bug in background shard rebalancer where the
replicate reference tables task fails if the current user is not a
superuser.
This change is to be backported to earlier releases. We should fix the
permissions for replicate_reference_tables on main branch such that it
can be run by non-superuser roles.
Fixes#6925.
Fixes#6926.
Previously INSERT .. SELECT planner were pushing down some queries that should not be pushed down due to wrong colocation checks. It was checking whether one of the table in SELECT part and target table are colocated. But now, we check colocation for all tables in SELECT part and the target table.
Another problem with INSERT .. SELECT planner was that some queries, which is valid to be pushed down, were not pushed down due to unnecessary checks which are currently supported. e.g. UNION check. As solution, we reused the pushdown planner checks for INSERT .. SELECT planner.

We mark objects as distributed objects in Citus metadata only if we need
to propagate given the command that creates it to worker nodes. For this
reason, we were not doing this for the objects that are created while
pg_dist_node is empty.
One implication of doing so is that we defer the schema propagation to
the time when user creates the first distributed table in the schema.
However, this doesn't help for schema-based sharding (#6866) because we
want to sync pg_dist_tenant_schema to the worker nodes even for empty
schemas too.
* Support test dependencies for isolation tests without a schedule
* Comment out a test due to a known issue (#6901)
* Also, reduce the verbosity for some log messages and make some
tests compatible with run_test.py.
Fixes#6779.
DESCRIPTION: Disables citus.enable_non_colocated_router_query_pushdown
GUC by default to ensure generating a consistent distributed plan for
the queries that reference non-colocated distributed tables
We already have tests for the cases where this GUC is disabled,
so I'm not adding any more tests in this PR.
Also make multi_insert_select_window idempotent.
Related to: #6793
DESCRIPTION: Forward to existing emit_log_hook in our log hook
This makes us work better with other extensions installed in Postgres.
Without this change we would overwrite their emit_log_hook, causing it
to never be called.
Fixes#6874
* Add support for dist insert select by selecting from a reference
table.
This was the only pushable insert .. select case that
#6773 didn't cover.
* For the cases where we insert into a Citus table but the INSERT ..
SELECT
query cannot be pushed down, allow pull-to-coordinator when possible.
Remove the checks that we had at the very beginning of
CreateInsertSelectPlanInternal so that we can try insert .. select via
pull-to-coordinator for the cases where we cannot push-down the insert
.. select query. What we support via pull-to-coordinator is still
limited due to lacking of logical planner support for SELECT queries,
but this commit at least allows using pull-to-coordinator for the cases
where the select query can be planned via router planner, without
limiting ourselves to restrictive top-level checks.
Also introduce some additional restrictions into
CreateDistributedInsertSelectPlan for the cases it was missing to check
for null-shard-key tables. Indeed, it would make more sense to have
those checks for distributed tables in general, via separate PRs against
main branch. See https://github.com/citusdata/citus/pull/6817.
* Add support for inserting into a Postgres table.
Enable router planner and a limited version of INSERT .. SELECT planner
for the queries that reference colocated null shard key tables.
* SELECT / UPDATE / DELETE / MERGE is supported as long as it's a router
query.
* INSERT .. SELECT is supported as long as it only references colocated
null shard key tables.
Note that this is not only limited to distributed INSERT .. SELECT but
also
covers a limited set of query types that require pull-to-coordinator,
e.g.,
due to LIMIT clause, generate_series() etc. ...
(Ideally distributed INSERT .. SELECT could handle such queries too,
e.g.,
when we're only referencing tables that don't have a shard key, but
today
this is not the case. See
https://github.com/citusdata/citus/pull/6773#discussion_r1140130562.
Add tests for ddl coverage:
* indexes
* partitioned tables + indexes with long names
* triggers
* foreign keys
* statistics
* grant & revoke statements
* truncate & vacuum
* create/test/drop view that depends on a dist table with no shard key
* policy & rls test
* alter table add/drop/alter_type column (using sequences/different data
types/identity columns)
* alter table add constraint (not null, check, exclusion constraint)
* alter table add column with a default value / set default / drop
default
* alter table set option (autovacuum)
* indexes / constraints without names
* multiple subcommands
Adds support for
* Creating new partitions after distributing (with null key) the parent
table
* Attaching partitions to a distributed table with null distribution key
(and automatically distribute the new partition with null key as well)
* Detaching partitions from it
With this PR, we allow creating distributed tables with without
specifying a shard key via create_distributed_table(). Here are the
the important details about those tables:
* Specifying `shard_count` is not allowed because it is assumed to be 1.
* We mostly call such tables as "null shard-key" table in code /
comments.
* To avoid doing a breaking layout change in create_distributed_table();
instead of throwing an error, it will inform the user that
`distribution_type`
param is ignored unless it's explicitly set to NULL or 'h'.
* `colocate_with` param allows colocating such null shard-key tables to
each other.
* We define this table type, i.e., NULL_SHARD_KEY_TABLE, as a subclass
of
DISTRIBUTED_TABLE because we mostly want to treat them as distributed
tables in terms of SQL / DDL / operation support.
* Metadata for such tables look like:
- distribution method => DISTRIBUTE_BY_NONE
- replication model => REPLICATION_MODEL_STREAMING
- colocation id => **!=** INVALID_COLOCATION_ID (distinguishes from
Citus local tables)
* We assign colocation groups for such tables to different nodes in a
round-robin fashion based on the modulo of "colocation id".
Note that this PR doesn't care about DDL (except CREATE TABLE) / SQL /
operation (i.e., Citus UDFs) support for such tables but adds a
preliminary
API.
We are handling colocation groups with shard group count less than the
worker node count, using a method different than the usual rebalancer.
See #6739
While making the decision of using this method or not, we should've
ignored the nodes that are marked `shouldhaveshards = false`. This PR
excludes those nodes when making the decision.
Adds a test such that:
coordinator: []
worker 1: [1_1, 1_2]
worker 2: [2_1, 2_2]
(rebalance)
coordinator: []
worker 1: [1_1, 2_1]
worker 2: [1_2, 2_2]
If we take the coordinator into account, the rebalancer considers the
first state as balanced and does nothing (because shard_count <
worker_count)
But with this pr, we ignore the coordinator because it's
shouldhaveshards = false
So the rebalancer distributes each colocation group to both workers
Also, fixes an unrelated flaky test in the same file
We need to break sequence dependency for a table while creating the
table during non-transactional metadata sync to ensure idempotency of
the creation of the table.
**Problem:**
When we send `SELECT
pg_catalog.worker_drop_sequence_dependency(logicalrelid::regclass::text)
FROM pg_dist_partition` to workers during the non-transactional sync,
table might not be in `pg_dist_partition` at worker, and sequence
dependency is not broken at the worker.
**Solution:**
We break sequence dependency via `SELECT
pg_catalog.worker_drop_sequence_dependency(logicalrelid::regclass::text)`
for each table while creating it at the workers. It is safe to send
since the udf is a no-op when there is no sequence dependency.
DESCRIPTION: Fixes a bug related to sequence idempotency at
non-transactional sync.
Fixes https://github.com/citusdata/citus/issues/6888.
`PlaceHolderVar` is not relevant to be processed inside a restriction
clause. Otherwise, `pull_var_clause_default` would throw error. PG would
create the restriction to physical `Var` that `PlaceHolderVar` points to
anyway, so it is safe to skip this restriction.
DESCRIPTION: Fixes a bug related to WHERE clause list which contains
placeholder.

This PR updates the tenant stats implementation to set partitionKeyValue
and colocationId in ExecuteLocalTaskListExtended, in addition to
LocallyExecuteTaskPlan. This ensures that tenant stats can be properly
gathered regardless of the code path taken. The changes were initially
made while testing stored procedure calls for tenant stats.
.. rather than having it in user facing functions. That way, we
can use the same logic for creating Citus tables from other places
too.
This would be useful for creating tenant tables via a simple function
call in the utility hook, for schema-based sharding purposes.
DESCRIPTION: Fixes memory errors, caught by valgrind, of type
"conditional jump or move depends on uninitialized value"
When running Citus tests under Postgres with valgrind, the test cases
calling into `NonBlockingShardSplit` function produce valgrind errors of
type "conditional jump or move depends on uninitialized value".
The issue is caused by creating a HTAB in a wrong way. HASH_COMPARE flag
should have been used when creating a HTAB with user defined comparison
function. In the absence of HASH_COMPARE flag, HTAB falls back into
built-in string comparison function. However, valgrind somehow discovers
that the match function is not assigned to the user defined function as
intended.
Fixes#6835
Fixes the bug that causes updating the citus_stat_tenants periods
incorrectly.
`TimestampDifferenceExceeds` expects the difference in milliseconds but
it was microseconds, this is fixed.
`tenantStats->lastQueryTime` was updated during monitoring too, now it's
updated only when there are tenant queries.
DESCRIPTION:
Makefile changes to build different versions of CDC decoder for different base decoders like pgoutput and wal2json with the same name and copy it to $packagelib/cdc_decoders dir. This helps the user to use logical replication slots normally with pgoutput without being aware of CDC decoder.
1) Changed src/backend/distributed/cdc/Makefile to setup a build directory
for CDC in build-cdc-$(DECODER) dir and copy the source files (.c.h and Makefile.decoder) to
the build dir and build it for each base decoder.
2) copy the pgoutput.so and wal2json.so into the above build dir and
install them in PG packagelibdir/citus_decoders directory.
3)Added a testcase 016_cdc_wal2json.pl for testing the wal2json decoder
using pg_recv_logical_changes function.
DESCRIPTION: Adds control for background task executors involving a node
### Background and motivation
Nonblocking concurrent task execution via background workers was
introduced in [#6459](https://github.com/citusdata/citus/pull/6459), and
concurrent shard moves in the background rebalancer were introduced in
[#6756](https://github.com/citusdata/citus/pull/6756) - with a hard
dependency that limits to 1 shard move per node. As we know, a shard
move consists of a shard moving from a source node to a target node. The
hard dependency was used because the background task runner didn't have
an option to limit the parallel shard moves per node.
With the motivation of controlling the number of concurrent shard
moves that involve a particular node, either as source or target, this
PR introduces a general new GUC
citus.max_background_task_executors_per_node to be used in the
background task runner infrastructure. So, why do we even want to
control and limit the concurrency? Well, it's all about resource
availability: because the moves involve the same nodes, extra
parallelism won’t make the rebalance complete faster if some resource is
already maxed out (usually cpu or disk). Or, if the cluster is being
used in a production setting, the moves might compete for resources with
production queries much more than if they had been executed
sequentially.
### How does it work?
A new column named nodes_involved is added to the catalog table that
keeps track of the scheduled background tasks,
pg_dist_background_task. It is of type integer[] - to store a list
of node ids. It is NULL by default - the column will be filled by the
rebalancer, but we may not care about the nodes involved in other uses
of the background task runner.
Table "pg_catalog.pg_dist_background_task"
Column | Type
============================================
job_id | bigint
task_id | bigint
owner | regrole
pid | integer
status | citus_task_status
command | text
retry_count | integer
not_before | timestamp with time zone
message | text
+nodes_involved | integer[]
A hashtable named ParallelTasksPerNode keeps track of the number of
parallel running background tasks per node. An entry in the hashtable is
as follows:
ParallelTasksPerNodeEntry
{
node_id // The node is used as the hash table key
counter // Number of concurrent background tasks that involve node node_id
// The counter limit is citus.max_background_task_executors_per_node
}
When the background task runner assigns a runnable task to a new
executor, it increments the counter for each of the nodes involved with
that runnable task. The limit of each counter is
citus.max_background_task_executors_per_node. If the limit is reached
for any of the nodes involved, this runnable task is skipped. And then,
later, when the running task finishes, the background task runner
decrements the counter for each of the nodes involved with the done
task. The following functions take care of these increment-decrement
steps:
IncrementParallelTaskCountForNodesInvolved(task)
DecrementParallelTaskCountForNodesInvolved(task)
citus.max_background_task_executors_per_node can be changed in the
fly. In the background rebalancer, we simply give {source_node,
target_node} as the nodesInvolved input to the
ScheduleBackgroundTask function. The rest is taken care of by the
general background task runner infrastructure explained above. Check
background_task_queue_monitor.sql and
background_rebalance_parallel.sql tests for detailed examples.
#### Note
This PR also adds a hard node dependency if a node is first being used
as a source for a move, and then later as a target. The reason this
should be a hard dependency is that the first move might make space for
the second move. So, we could run out of disk space (or at least
overload the node) if we move the second shard to it before the first
one is moved away.

DESCRIPTION: Adds views that monitor statistics on tenant usages
This PR adds `citus_stats_tenants` view that monitors the tenants on the
cluster.
`citus_stats_tenants` shows the node id, colocation id, tenant
attribute, read count in this period and last period, and query count in
this period and last period of the tenant.
Tenant attribute currently is the tenant's distribution column value,
later when schema based sharding is introduced, this meaning might
change.
A period is a time bucket the queries are counted by. Read and query
counts for this period can increase until the current period ends. After
that those counts are moved to last period's counts, which cannot
change. The period length can be set using 'citus.stats_tenants_period'.
`SELECT` queries are counted as _read_ queries, `INSERT`, `UPDATE` and
`DELETE` queries are counted as _write_ queries. So in the view read
counts are `SELECT` counts and query counts are `SELECT`, `INSERT`,
`UPDATE` and `DELETE` count.
The data is stored in shared memory, in a struct named
`MultiTenantMonitor`.
`citus_stats_tenants` shows the data from local tenants.
`citus_stats_tenants` show up to `citus.stats_tenant_limit` number of
tenants.
The tenants are scored based on the number of queries they run and the
recency of those queries. Every query ran increases the score of tenant
by `ONE_QUERY_SCORE`, and after every period ends the scores are halved.
Halving is done lazily.
To retain information a longer the monitor keeps up to 3 times
`citus.stats_tenant_limit` tenants. When the tenant count hits `3 *
citus.stats_tenant_limit`, last `citus.stats_tenant_limit` tenants are
removed. To see all stored tenants you can use
`citus_stats_tenants(return_all_tenants := true)`

DESCRIPTION: Fix an issue that caused some queries with custom
aggregates to fail
While playing around with https://github.com/pgvector/pgvector I noticed
that the AVG query was broken. That's because we treat it as any other
AVG by breaking it down in SUM and COUNT, but there are no SUM/COUNT
functions in this case, but there is a perfectly usable combinefunc.
This PR changes our aggregate logic to prefer custom aggregates with a
combinefunc even if they have a common name.

DESCRIPTION:
- The CDC decoder is refacroted into a seperate extension that can be used loaded dynamically without having to reload citus.
- CDC decoder code can be compiled using DECODER flag to work with different decoders like pgoutput and wal2json.
by default the base decode is "pgoutput".
- the dynamic_library_path config is adjusted dynamically to prefer the decoders in cdc_decoders directory in citus init
so that the users can use the replication subscription commands without having to make any config changes.
DESCRIPTION: Refactor and unify shard move and copy functions
Shard move and copy functions share a lot of code in common. This PR
unifies these functions into one, along with some helper functions. To
preserve the current behavior, we'll introduce and use an enum
parameter, and hardcoded strings for producing error/warning messages.
Add new metadata sync methods which uses MemorySyncContext api so that during the sync we can
- free memory to prevent OOM,
- use either transactional or nontransactional modes according to the GUC .
- Create MetadataSyncContext api to encapsulate
both transactional and nontransactional modes,
- Add a GUC to switch between metadata sync transaction modes.
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: This PR removes the task dependencies between shard moves
for which the shards belong to different colocation groups. This change
results in scheduling multiple tasks in the RUNNABLE state. Therefore it
is possible that the background task monitor can run them concurrently.
Previously, all the shard moves planned in a rebalance operation took
dependency on each other sequentially.
For instance, given the following table and shards
colocation group 1 colocation group 2
table1 table2 table3 table4 table 5
shard11 shard21 shard31 shard41 shard51
shard12 shard22 shard32 shard42 shard52
if the rebalancer planner returned the below set of moves
` {move(shard11), move(shard12), move(shard41), move(shard42)}`
background rebalancer scheduled them such that they depend on each other
sequentially.
```
{move(reftables) if there is any, none}
|
move( shard11)
|
move(shard12)
| {move(shard41)<--- move(shard12)} This is an artificial dependency
move(shard41)
|
move(shard42)
```
This results in artificial dependencies between otherwise independent
moves.
Considering that the shards in different colocation groups can be moved
concurrently, this PR changes the dependency relationship between the
moves as follows:
```
{move(reftables) if there is any, none} {move(reftables) if there is any, none}
| |
move(shard11) move(shard41)
| |
move(shard12) move(shard42)
```

Description:
Implementing CDC changes using Logical Replication to avoid
re-publishing events multiple times by setting up replication origin
session, which will add "DoNotReplicateId" to every WAL entry.
- shard splits
- shard moves
- create distributed table
- undistribute table
- alter distributed tables (for some cases)
- reference table operations
The citus decoder which will be decoding WAL events for CDC clients,
ignores any WAL entry with replication origin that is not zero.
It also maps the shard names to distributed table names.
Today we allow planning the queries that reference non-colocated tables
if the shards that query targets are placed on the same node. However,
this may not be the case, e.g., after rebalancing shards because it's
not guaranteed to have those shards on the same node anymore.
This commit adds citus.enable_non_colocated_router_query_pushdown GUC
that can be used to disallow planning such queries via router planner,
when it's set to false. Note that the default value for this GUC will be
"true" for 11.3, but we will alter it to "false" on 12.0 to not
introduce
a breaking change in a minor release.
Closes#692.
Even more, allowing such queries to go through router planner also
causes
generating an incorrect plan for the DML queries that reference
distributed
tables that are sharded based on different replication factor settings.
For
this reason, #6779 can be closed after altering the default value for
this
GUC to "false", hence not now.
DESCRIPTION: Adds `citus.enable_non_colocated_router_query_pushdown` GUC
to ensure generating a consistent distributed plan for the queries that
reference non-colocated distributed tables (when set to "false", the
default is "true").
Because they're only interested in distributed tables. Even more,
this replaces HasDistributionKey() check with
IsCitusTableType(DISTRIBUTED_TABLE) because this doesn't make a
difference on main and sounds slightly more intuitive. Plus, this
would also allow safely using this function in
https://github.com/citusdata/citus/pull/6773.
DESCRIPTION: Check before logicalrep for rebalancer, error if needed
Check if we can use logical replication or not, in case of shard
transfer mode = auto, before executing the shard moves. If we can't,
error out. Before this PR, we used to error out in the middle of shard
moves:
```sql
set citus.shard_count = 4; -- just to get the error sooner
select citus_remove_node('localhost',9702);
create table t1 (a int primary key);
select create_distributed_table('t1','a');
create table t2 (a bigint);
select create_distributed_table('t2','a');
select citus_add_node('localhost',9702);
select rebalance_table_shards();
NOTICE: Moving shard 102008 from localhost:9701 to localhost:9702 ...
NOTICE: Moving shard 102009 from localhost:9701 to localhost:9702 ...
NOTICE: Moving shard 102012 from localhost:9701 to localhost:9702 ...
ERROR: cannot use logical replication to transfer shards of the relation t2 since it doesn't have a REPLICA IDENTITY or PRIMARY KEY
```
Now we check and error out in the beginning, without moving the shards.
fixes: #6727

2) Move all MERGE related routines to a new file merge_planner.c
3) Make ConjunctionContainsColumnFilter() static again, and rearrange the code in MergeQuerySupported()
4) Restore the original format in the comments section.
5) Add big serial test. Implement latest set of comments
This implements the phase - II of MERGE sql support
Support routable query where all the tables in the merge-sql are distributed, co-located, and both the source and
target relations are joined on the distribution column with a constant qual. This should be a Citus single-task
query. Below is an example.
SELECT create_distributed_table('t1', 'id');
SELECT create_distributed_table('s1', 'id', colocate_with => ‘t1’);
MERGE INTO t1
USING s1 ON t1.id = s1.id AND t1.id = 100
WHEN MATCHED THEN
UPDATE SET val = s1.val + 10
WHEN MATCHED THEN
DELETE
WHEN NOT MATCHED THEN
INSERT (id, val, src) VALUES (s1.id, s1.val, s1.src)
Basically, MERGE checks to see if
There are a minimum of two distributed tables (source and a target).
All the distributed tables are indeed colocated.
MERGE relations are joined on the distribution column
MERGE .. USING .. ON target.dist_key = source.dist_key
The query should touch only a single shard i.e. JOIN AND with a constant qual
MERGE .. USING .. ON target.dist_key = source.dist_key AND target.dist_key = <>
If any of the conditions are not met, it raises an exception.
(cherry picked from commit 44c387b978)
This implements MERGE phase3
Support pushdown query where all the tables in the merge-sql are Citus-distributed, co-located, and both
the source and target relations are joined on the distribution column. This will generate multiple tasks
which execute independently after pushdown.
SELECT create_distributed_table('t1', 'id');
SELECT create_distributed_table('s1', 'id', colocate_with => ‘t1’);
MERGE INTO t1
USING s1
ON t1.id = s1.id
WHEN MATCHED THEN
UPDATE SET val = s1.val + 10
WHEN MATCHED THEN
DELETE
WHEN NOT MATCHED THEN
INSERT (id, val, src) VALUES (s1.id, s1.val, s1.src)
*The only exception for both the phases II and III is, UPDATEs and INSERTs must be done on the same shard-group
as the joined key; for example, below scenarios are NOT supported as the key-value to be inserted/updated is not
guaranteed to be on the same node as the id distribution-column.
MERGE INTO target t
USING source s ON (t.customer_id = s.customer_id)
WHEN NOT MATCHED THEN - -
INSERT(customer_id, …) VALUES (<non-local-constant-key-value>, ……);
OR this scenario where we update the distribution column itself
MERGE INTO target t
USING source s On (t.customer_id = s.customer_id)
WHEN MATCHED THEN
UPDATE SET customer_id = 100;
(cherry picked from commit fa7b8949a8)
Decide core distribution params in CreateCitusTable to reduce the
chances of
creating Citus tables based on incorrect combinations of distribution
method
and replication model params.
Also introduce DistributedTableParams struct to encapsulate the
parameters
that are specific to distributed tables.
Now that we will soon add another table type having DISTRIBUTE_BY_NONE
as distribution method and that we want the code to interpret such
tables mostly as distributed tables, let's make the definition of those
other two table types more strict by removing
CITUS_TABLE_WITH_NO_DIST_KEY
macro.
And instead, use HasDistributionKey() check in the places where the
logic applies to all table types that have / don't have a distribution
key. In future PRs, we might want to convert some of those
HasDistributionKey() checks if logic only applies to Citus local /
reference tables, not the others.
And adding HasDistributionKey() also allows us to consider having
DISTRIBUTE_BY_NONE as the distribution method as a "table attribute"
that can apply to distributed tables too, rather something that
determines the table type.
Split the main logic that allows creating a Citus table into the
internal function CreateCitusTable().
Old CreateDistributedTable() function was assuming that it's creating
a reference table when the distribution method is DISTRIBUTE_BY_NONE.
However, soon this won't be the case when adding support for creating
single-shard distributed tables because their distribution method would
also be the same.
Now the internal method CreateCitusTable() doesn't make any assumptions
about table's replication model or such. Instead, it expects callers to
properly set all such metadata bits.
Even more, some of the parameters the old CreateDistributedTable() takes
--such as the shard count-- were not meaningful for a reference table,
and would be the same as for new table type.
DESCRIPTION: Fixes a bug in shard copy operations.
For copying shards in both shard move and shard split operations, Citus
uses the COPY statement.
A COPY all statement in the following form
` COPY target_shard FROM STDIN;`
throws an error when there is a GENERATED column in the shard table.
In order to fix this issue, we need to exclude the GENERATED columns in
the COPY and the matching SELECT statements. Hence this fix converts the
COPY and SELECT all statements to the following form:
```
COPY target_shard (col1, col2, ..., coln) FROM STDIN;
SELECT (col1, col2, ..., coln) FROM source_shard;
```
where (col1, col2, ..., coln) does not include a GENERATED column.
GENERATED column values are created in the target_shard as the values
are inserted.
Fixes#6705.

DESCRIPTION: Adds logic to distribute unbalanced shards
If the number of shard placements (for a colocation group) is less than
the number of workers, it means that some of the workers will remain
empty. With this PR, we consider these shard groups as a colocation
group, in order to make them be distributed evenly as much as possible
across the cluster.
Example:
```sql
create table t1 (a int primary key);
create table t2 (a int primary key);
create table t3 (a int primary key);
set citus.shard_count =1;
select create_distributed_table('t1','a');
select create_distributed_table('t2','a',colocate_with=>'t1');
select create_distributed_table('t3','a',colocate_with=>'t2');
create table tb1 (a bigint);
create table tb2 (a bigint);
select create_distributed_table('tb1','a');
select create_distributed_table('tb2','a',colocate_with=>'tb1');
select citus_add_node('localhost',9702);
select rebalance_table_shards();
```
Here we have two colocation groups, each with one shard group. Both
shard groups are placed on the first worker node. When we add a new
worker node and try to rebalance table shards, the rebalance planner
considers it well balanced and does nothing. With this PR, the
rebalancer tries to distribute these shard groups evenly across the
cluster as much as possible. For this example, with this PR, the
rebalancer moves one of the shard groups to the second worker node.
fixes: #6715
DESCRIPTION: Correctly report shard size in citus_shards view
When looking at citus_shards, people are interested in the actual size
that all the data related to the shard takes up on disk.
`pg_total_relation_size` is the function to use for that purpose. The
previously used `pg_relation_size` does not include indexes or TOAST.
Especially the missing toast can have enormous impact on the size of the
shown data.
2 improvements to prevent memory leaks during altering or undistributing
distributed tables with a lot of partitions and shards:
1. Free memory for each call to ConvertTable so that colocated and partition tables at
`AlterDistributedTable`, `UndistributeTable`, or
`AlterTableSetAccessMethod` will not cause an increase
in memory usage,
2. Free memory while executing attach partition commands for each partition table at
`AlterDistributedTable` to prevent an increase in memory usage.
DESCRIPTION: Fixes memory leak issue during altering distributed table
with a lot of partition and shards.
Fixes https://github.com/citusdata/citus/issues/6503.
We have memory leak during distribution of a table with a lot of
partitions as we do not release memory at ExprContext until all
partitions are not distributed. We improved 2 things to resolve the
issue:
1. We create and delete MemoryContext for each call to
`CreateDistributedTable` by partitions,
2. We rebuild the cache after we insert all the placements instead of
each placement for a shard.
DESCRIPTION: Fixes memory leak during distribution of a table with a lot
of partitions and shards.
Fixes https://github.com/citusdata/citus/issues/6572.
When auto_explain module is loaded and configured, EXPLAIN will be
implicitly run for all the supported commands. Postgres does not support
`EXPLAIN` for `ALTER` command. However, auto_explain will try to
`EXPLAIN` other supported commands internally triggered by `ALTER`.
For instance,
`ALTER TABLE target_table ADD CONSTRAINT fkey_167 FOREIGN KEY (col_1)
REFERENCES ref_table(key) ... `
command may trigger a SELECT command in the following form for foreign
key validation purpose:
`SELECT fk.col_1 FROM ONLY target_table fk LEFT OUTER JOIN ONLY
ref_table pk ON ( pk.key OPERATOR(pg_catalog.=) fk.col_1) WHERE pk.key
IS NULL AND (fk.col_1 IS NOT NULL) `
For Citus tables, the Citus utility hook should ensure that constraint
validation is skipped for shell tables but they are done for shard
tables. The reason behind this design choice can be summed up as:
- An ALTER TABLE command via coordinator node is run in a distributed
transaction.
- Citus does not support nested distributed transactions.
- A SELECT query on a distributed table (aka shell table) is also run in
a distributed transaction.
- Therefore, Citus does not support running a SELECT query on a shell
table while an ALTER TABLE command is running.
With
eadc88a800
a bug is introduced breaking the skip constraint validation behaviour of
Citus. With this change, we see that validation queries on distributed
tables are triggered within `ALTER` command adding constraints with
validation check. This regression did not cause an issue for regular use
cases since the citus executor hook blocks those queries heuristically
when there is an ALTER TABLE command in progress.
The issue is surfaced as a crash (#6424 Workers, when configured to use
auto_explain, crash during distributed transactions.) when auto_explain
is enabled. This is due to auto_explain trying to execute the SELECT
queries in a nested distributed transaction.
Now since the regression with constraint validation is fixed in
https://github.com/citusdata/citus/issues/6543, we should be able to
remove the workaround.
We should not omit to free PGResult when we receive single tuple result
from an internal backend.
Single tuple results are normally freed by our ReceiveResults for
`tupleDescriptor != NULL` flow but not for those with `tupleDescriptor
== NULL`. See PR #6722 for details.
DESCRIPTION: Fixes memory leak issue with query results that returns
single row.
Prevents memory leak during ConvertTable call for a table with a lot of
partitions.
DESCRIPTION: Fixes memory leak during undistribution and alteration of a
table with a lot of partitions.
In #6314 I refactored the connection cleanup to be simpler to
understand and use. However, by doing so I introduced a use-after-free
possibility (that valgrind luckily picked up):
In the `ShouldShutdownConnection` path of
`AfterXactHostConnectionHandling`
we free connections without removing the `transactionNode` from the
dlist that it might be part of. Before the refactoring this wasn't a
problem, because the dlist would be completely reset quickly after in
`ResetGlobalVariables` (without reading or writing the dlist entries).
The refactoring changed this by moving the `dlist_delete` call to
`ResetRemoteTransaction`, which in turn was called in the
`!ShouldShutdownConnection` path of `AfterXactHostConnectionHandling`.
Thus this `!ShouldShutdownConnection` path would now delete from the
`dlist`, but the `ShouldShutdownConnection` path would not. Thus to
remove itself the deleting path would sometimes update nodes in the list
that were freed right before.
There's two ways of fixing this:
1. Call `dlist_delete` from **both** of paths.
2. Call `dlist_delete` from **neither** of the paths.
This commit implements the second approach, and #6684 implements the
first. We need to choose which approach we prefer.
To make calling `dlist_delete` from both paths actually work, we also need
to use a slightly different check to determine if we need to call dlist_delete.
Various regression tests showed that there can be cases where the
`transactionState` is something else than `REMOTE_TRANS_NOT_STARTED`
but the connection was not added to the `InProgressTransactions` list
One example of such a case is when running `TransactionStateMachine`
without calling `StartRemoteTransactionBegin` beforehand. In those
cases the connection won't be added to `InProgressTransactions`, but
the `transactionState` is changed to `REMOTE_TRANS_SENT_COMMAND`.
Sidenote: This bug already existed in 11.1, but valgrind didn't catch it
back then. My guess is that this happened because #6314 was merged after
the initial release branch was cut.
Fixes#6638
If there is a problem with an ongoing rebalance, we did not show details
on background tasks that are stuck in runnable state. Similar to how we
show details for errored tasks, we now show details on tasks that are
being retried.
Earlier we showed the following output when a task was stuck:
```
┌────────────────────────────┐
│ { ↵│
│ "tasks": [ ↵│
│ ], ↵│
│ "task_state_counts": {↵│
│ "done": 13, ↵│
│ "blocked": 2, ↵│
│ "runnable": 1 ↵│
│ } ↵│
│ } │
└────────────────────────────┘
```
Now we show details like the following:
```
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------
| {
| "tasks": [
| {
| "state": "runnable",
| "command": "SELECT pg_catalog.citus_move_shard_placement(1
| "message": "ERROR: Moving shards to a node that shouldn't

| "task_id": 3

| ],
| "task_state_counts": {
| "blocked": 1,
| "runnable": 1

DESCRIPTION: Fix background rebalance when reference table has no PK
For the background rebalance we would always fail if a reference table
that was not replicated to all nodes would not have a PK (or replica
identity). Even when we used force_logical or block_writes as the shard
transfer mode. This fixes that and adds some regression tests.
Fixes#6680
We should disallow dropping table_name option if foreign table is in
metadata. Otherwise, we get table not found error which contains
shardid.
DESCRIPTION: Fixes an unexpected foreign table error by disallowing to drop the table_name option.
Fixes#6663
Recursive planner should handle all the tree from bottom to top at
single pass. i.e. It should have already recursively planned all
required parts in its first pass. Otherwise, this means we have bug at
recursive planner, which needs to be handled. We add a check here and
return error.
DESCRIPTION: Fixes wrong results by throwing error in case recursive
planner multipass the query.
We found 3 different cases which causes recursive planner passes the
query multiple times.
1. Sublink in WHERE clause is planned at second pass after we
recursively planned a distributed table at the first pass. Fixed by PR
#6657.
2. Local-distributed joins are recursively planned at both the first and
the second pass. Issue #6659.
3. Some parts of the query is considered to be noncolocated at the
second pass as we do not generate attribute equivalances between
nondistributed and distributed tables. Issue #6653
DESCRIPTION: Fix foreign key validation skip at the end of shard move
In eadc88a we started completely skipping foreign key constraint
validation at the end of a non blocking shard move, instead of only for
foreign keys to reference tables. However, it turns out that this didn't
work at all because of a hard to notice bug: By resetting the
SkipConstraintValidation flag at the end of our utility hook, we
actually make the SET command that sets it a no-op.
This fixes that bug by removing the code that resets it. This is fine
because #6543 removed the only place where we set the flag in C code. So
the resetting of the flag has no purpose anymore. This PR also adds a
regression test, because it turned out we didn't have any otherwise we
would have caught that the feature was completely broken.
It also moves the constraint validation skipping to the utility hook.
The reason is that #6550 showed us that this is the better place to skip
it, because it will also skip the planning phase and not just the
execution.
We should do the sublink conversations at the end of the recursive
planning because earlier steps might have transformed the query into a
shape that needs recursively planning the sublinks.
DESCRIPTION: Fixes early sublink check at recursive planner.

Fixes#6655.
heap_modify_tuple() fetches values[i] if replace[i] is set true,
regardless of the fact that whether isnull[i] is true or false. So
similar to replace[], let's init values[] & isnull[] too.
DESCRIPTION: Fixes an uninitialized memory access in
create_distributed_function()
This change allows creating a constraint without a name using an index.
The index name will be used as the constraint name the same way postgres
handles it.
Fixes issue #6644
This commit also cleans up some leftovers from nameless constraint checks.
With this commit, we now fully support adding all nameless constraints
directly to a table.

Adds NOT VALID option to deparser. When we need to deparse:
"ALTER TABLE ADD FOREIGN KEY ... NOT VALID"
"ALTER TABLE ADD CHECK ... NOT VALID"
NOT VALID option should be propagated to workers.
Fixes issue #6646
This commit also uses AppendColumnNameList function
instead of repeated code blocks in two appropriate places
in the "ALTER TABLE" deparser.
If an update query on a reference table has a returns clause with a
subquery that accesses some other local table, we end-up with an crash.
This commit prevents the crash, but does not prevent other error
messages from happening due to Citus not being able to pushdown the
results of that subquery in a valid SQL command.

DESCRIPTION: Fix regression in allowed foreign keys on distributed
tables
In commit eadc88a we changed how we skip foreign key validation. The
goal was to skip it in more cases. However, one change had the
unintended regression of introducing failures when trying to create
certain foreign keys. This reverts that part of the change.
The way of skipping validation of foreign keys that was introduced in
eadc88a was skipping validation during execution. The reason that
this caused this regression was because some foreign key validation
queries already fail during planning. In those cases it never gets to
the execution step where it would later be skipped.
Fixes#6543
DESCRIPTION: Enable adding FOREIGN KEY constraints on Citus tables
without a name
This PR enables adding a foreign key to a distributed/reference/Citus
local table without specifying the name of the constraint, e.g. `ALTER
TABLE items ADD FOREIGN KEY (user_id) REFERENCES users (id);`
This implements the phase - II of MERGE sql support
Support routable query where all the tables in the merge-sql are distributed, co-located, and both the source and
target relations are joined on the distribution column with a constant qual. This should be a Citus single-task
query. Below is an example.
SELECT create_distributed_table('t1', 'id');
SELECT create_distributed_table('s1', 'id', colocate_with => ‘t1’);
MERGE INTO t1
USING s1 ON t1.id = s1.id AND t1.id = 100
WHEN MATCHED THEN
UPDATE SET val = s1.val + 10
WHEN MATCHED THEN
DELETE
WHEN NOT MATCHED THEN
INSERT (id, val, src) VALUES (s1.id, s1.val, s1.src)
Basically, MERGE checks to see if
There are a minimum of two distributed tables (source and a target).
All the distributed tables are indeed colocated.
MERGE relations are joined on the distribution column
MERGE .. USING .. ON target.dist_key = source.dist_key
The query should touch only a single shard i.e. JOIN AND with a constant qual
MERGE .. USING .. ON target.dist_key = source.dist_key AND target.dist_key = <>
If any of the conditions are not met, it raises an exception.
citus_job_list() lists all background jobs by simply showing the records
in pg_dist_background_job.
citus_job_status(job_id bigint, raw boolean default false) shows the
status of a single background job by appending a jsonb details column to
the associated row from pg_dist_background_job. If the raw argument is
set, machine readable sizes are used instead of human readable
alternatives.
citus_rebalance_status(raw boolean default false) shows the status of
the last rebalance operation. If the raw argument is set, machine
readable sizes are used instead of human readable alternatives.
The original implementation of GPIDs didn't work correctly when using
`pg_dist_poolinfo` together with PgBouncer. The reason is that it
assumed that once a connection was made to a worker, the originating
GPID should stay the same for ever. But when pg_dist_poolinfo is used
this isn't the case, because the same connection on the worker might be
used by different backends of the coordinator.
This fixes that issue by updating the GPID whenever a new application
name is set on a connection. This is the only thing that's needed,
because PgBouncer already sets the application name correctly on the
server connection whenever a client is updated.
DESCRIPTION: Enable adding CHECK constraints on distributed tables
without the client having to provide a constraint name.
This PR enables the following command syntax for adding check
constraints to distributed tables.
ALTER TABLE ... ADD CHECK ...
by creating a default constraint name and transforming the command into
the below syntax before sending it to workers.
ALTER TABLE ... ADD CONSTRAINT \<conname> CHECK ...
Table Constraints UNIQUE, PRIMARY KEY and EXCLUDE may have option
DEFERRABLE in their command syntax. This PR handles the option when
deparsing the relevant constraint statements.
NOT DEFERRABLE
and
INITIALLY IMMEDIATE (if DEFERRABLE}
are the default values for the option so we only append the non-default
values to the alter table statement.
In #6412 I made a change to not re-assign the global PID if it was
already set. This inadvertently introduced a regression where `userId`
and `databaseId` would not be set on the backend data when the global
PID was assigned in the authentication hook.
This fixes it by doing two things:
1. Removing `userId` from `BackendData`, since it's not used anywhere
anyway.
2. Move assignment of `databaseId` to dedicated
`SetBackendDataDatabaseId` function, that isn't a no-op when global
pid is already set.
Since #6412 is not released yet this does not need a description.
In #6598 it was noticed that Citus could generate syntactically invalid
statements during logical replication. With #6603 we resolved the direct
issue, by only generating valid subscription names. But there was also
the underlying problem that we did not escape certain identifier
strings. While in theory this should be okay since we should only
generate names that are valid, this issue reiterated that we should not
take this for granted. As an extra line of defense this quotes all
identifiers we use during logical replication setup.
DESCRIPTION: Adds support for creating table constraints UNIQUE and
EXCLUDE via ALTER TABLE command without client having to specify a name.
ALTER TABLE ... ADD CONSTRAINT <conname> UNIQUE ...
ALTER TABLE ... ADD CONSTRAINT <conname> EXCLUDE ...
commands require the client to provide an explicit constraint name.
However, in postgres it is possible for clients not to provide a name
and let the postgres generate it using the following commands
ALTER TABLE ... ADD UNIQUE ...
ALTER TABLE ... ADD EXCLUDE ...
This PR enables the same functionality for citus tables.
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.

DESCRIPTION: Defers cleanup after a failure in shard move or split
We don't need to do a cleanup in case of failure on a shard transfer or
split anymore. Because,
* Maintenance daemon will clean them up anyway.
* We trigger a cleanup at the beginning of shard transfers/splits.
* The cleanup on failure logic also can fail sometimes and instead of
the original error, we throw the error that is raised by the cleanup
procedure, and it causes confusion.
DESCRIPTION: Cleanup the shard on the target node in case of a
failed/aborted shard move
Inserts a cleanup record for the moved shard placement on the target
node. If the move operation succeeds, the record will be deleted. If
not, it will remain there to be cleaned up later.
fixes: #6580
All the tables (target, source or any CTE present) in the SQL statement are local i.e. a merge-sql with a combination of Citus local and
Non-Citus tables (regular Postgres tables) should work and give the same result as Postgres MERGE on regular tables. Catch and throw an
exception (not-yet-supported) for all other scenarios during Citus-planning phase.
DESCRIPTION: Support ALTER TABLE .. ADD PRIMARY KEY ... command
Before processing
> **ALTER TABLE ... ADD PRIMARY KEY ...**
command
1. Create a primary key name to use as the constraint name.
2. Change the **ALTER TABLE ... ADD PRIMARY KEY ...** command to into
**ALTER TABLE ... ADD CONSTRAINT \<constraint name> PRIMARY KEY ...**
form.
This is the only form we can specify a name for a primary key. If we run
ALTER TABLE .. ADD PRIMARY KEY, postgres
would create a constraint name internally in its own scheme. But the
problem is that we need to create constraint names
for shards in our own scheme which is \<constraint name>_\<shardid>.
Hence we need to create a name and send it to workers so that the
workers can append the shardid.
4. Run the changed command on the coordinator to make sure we are using
the same constraint name across the board.
5. Send the changed command to workers such that it is executed for the
main table as well as for the shards.
Fixes#6515.
Removes unused job boundary tag `SUBQUERY_MAP_MERGE_JOB`.
Only usage is at `BuildMapMergeJob`, which is only called when the
boundary = `JOIN_MAP_MERGE_JOB`. Hence, it should be safe to remove.
Before this commit, we created an additional WaitEventSet for
checking whether the remote socket is closed per connection -
only once at the start of the execution.
However, for certain workloads, such as pgbench select-only
workloads, the creation/deletion of the additional WaitEventSet
adds ~7% CPU overhead, which is also reflected on the benchmark
results.
With this commit, we use the same WaitEventSet for the purposes
of checking the remote socket at the start of the execution.
We use "rebuildWaitEventSet" flag so that the executor can re-use
the existing WaitEventSet.
As a result, we see the following improvements on PG 15:
main : 120051 tps, 0.532 ms latency avg.
avoid_wes_rebuild: 127119 tps, 0.503 ms latency avg.
And, on PG 14, as expected, there is no difference
main : 129191 tps, 0.495 ms latency avg.
avoid_wes_rebuild: 129480 tps, 0.494 ms latency avg.
But, note that PG 15 is slightly (~1.5%) slower than PG 14.
That is probably the overhead of checking the remote socket.
Fixes a missed include in #6315.
While adding the cluster clock we have added some extra steps to
`citus_prepare_pg_upgrade` and `citus_finish_pg_upgrade`. These changes
were not added to the citus upgrade and downgrade scripts, this allowed
for a syntax error to slip in.
This PR adds the new versions of both UDF's to the upgrade script while
adding the old version to the downgrade script. This exposed the syntax
error which is also solved.
- Because of the make command used for vanilla tests, test status is
always shown as success on CI. As a fix, I added `&& false` at the end
of the copying diff file to make the command fail when check-vanilla
fails.
```make
check-vanilla: all
$(pg_regress_multi_check) --vanillatest || (cp $(vanilla_diffs_file) $(citus_abs_srcdir)/regression.diffs && false)
```
- I also fixed some vanilla tests that fails due to recently added clock
related operators shown up at some queries.
We already have citus_job_wait to wait until the job reaches the desired
state. That PR adds waiting on task state to allow more granular
waiting. It can be used for Citus operations. Moreover, it is also
useful for testing purposes. (wait until a task reaches specified state)
Related to #6459.
Fixes task executor SIGTERM handling.
Problem:
When task executors are sent SIGTERM, their default handler
`bgworker_die`, which is set at worker startup, logs FATAL error. But
they do not release locks there before logging the error, which
sometimes causes hanging of the monitor. e.g. Monitor waits for the lock
forever at pg_stat flush after calling proc_exit.
Solution:
Because executors have connection to backend, they should handle SIGTERM
similar to normal backends. Normal backends uses `die` handler, in which
they set ProcDiePending flag and the next CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS call
handles it gracefully by releasing any lock before termination.
DESCRIPTION: Create replication artifacts with unique names
We're creating replication objects with generic names. This disallows us
to enable parallel shard moves, as two operations might use the same
objects. With this PR, we'll create below objects with operation
specific names, by appending OparationId to the names.
* Subscriptions
* Publications
* Replication Slots
* Users created for subscriptions
1) Regular users fail to use clock UDF with permission issue.
2) Clock functions were declared as STABLE, whereas by definition they are VOLATILE. By design, any clock/time
functions will return different results for each call even within a single SQL statement.
Note: UDF citus_get_transaction_clock() is a misnomer as it internally calls the clock tick which always returns
different results for every invocation in the same transaction.
Adds signal handlers for graceful termination, cancellation of
task executors and detecting config updates. Related to PR #6459.
#### How to handle termination signal?
Monitor need to gracefully terminate all running task executors before
terminating. Hence, we have sigterm handler for the monitor.
#### How to handle cancellation signal?
Monitor need to gracefully cancel all running task executors before
terminating. Hence, we have sigint handler for the monitor.
#### How to detect configuration changes?
Monitor has SIGHUP handler to reflect configuration changes while
executing tasks.
When using multiline strings, we occasionally forget to add a single
space at the end of the first line. When this line is concatenated with
the next one, the resulting string has a missing space.
DESCRIPTION: Extend cleanup process for replication artifacts
This PR adds new cleanup record types for:
* Subscriptions
* Replication slots
* Publications
* Users created for subscriptions
We add records for these object types, to `pg_dist_cleanup` during
creation phase. Once the operation is done, in case of success or
failure, we iterate those records and drop the objects. With this PR we
will not be dropping any of these objects during the operation. In
short, we will always be deferring the drop.
One thing that's worth mentioning is that we sort cleanup records before
processing (dropping) them, because of dependency relations among those
objects, e.g a subscription might depend on a publication. Therefore, we
always drop subscriptions before publications.
We have some renames in this PR:
* `TryDropOrphanedShards` -> `TryDropOrphanedResources`
* `DropOrphanedShardsForCleanup` -> `DropOrphanedResourcesForCleanup`
* `run_try_drop_marked_shards` -> `run_try_drop_marked_resources`
as these functions now process replication artifacts as well.
This PR drops function `DropAllLogicalReplicationLeftovers` and its all
usages, since now we rely on the deferring drop mechanism.
Improvement on our background task monitoring API (PR #6296) to support
concurrent and nonblocking task execution.
Mainly we have a queue monitor background process which forks task
executors for `Runnable` tasks and then monitors their status by
fetching messages from shared memory queue in nonblocking way.
**Problem**: Currently, we error out if we detect recurring tuples in
one side without checking the other side of the join.
**Solution**: When one side of the full join consists recurring tuples
and the other side consists nonrecurring tuples, we should not pushdown
to prevent duplicate results. Otherwise, safe to pushdown.
This PR changes
```citus.propagate_session_settings_for_loopback_connection``` default
value to off not to expose this feature publicly at this point. See
#6488 for details.
When debugging issues it's quite useful to see the originating gpid in
the application_name of a query on a worker. This already happens for
most queries, but not for queries created by the rebalancer or by
run_command_on_worker. This adds a gpid to those two application_names
too.
Note, that if the GPID of the new application_names is different than
the current GPID of the backend the backend will continue to keep
the old gpid as its actual GPID. This PR is just meant to make sure
that the application_name is as useful as it can be for users to
look at. Updating of gpids will be done in a follow-up PR, and
adding gpids to all internal connections will make this easier.
DESCRIPTION: Fixes a potential dangling pointer issue
Need to backport to 11.0 & 11.1 since we might want to release packages
for debian/bookworm based on those branches in future.
Fixes a bug that causes crash when using auto_explain extension with
ALTER TABLE...ADD FOREIGN KEY... queries.
Those queries trigger a SELECT query on the citus tables as part of the
foreign key constraint validation check. At the explain hook, workers
try to explain this SELECT query as a distributed query causing memory
corruption in the connection data structures. Hence, we will not explain
ALTER TABLE...ADD FOREIGN KEY... and the triggered queries on the
workers.
Fixes#6424.
(Hopefully) Fixes#5000.

For this reason, to be more defensive against memory-allocation errors
that could happen at `PushSubXact()`, now we use our pre-allocated
memory
context for the objects created in `PushSubXact()`.
This commit also attempts reducing the memory allocations done under
CommitContext to reduce the chances of consuming all the memory
available
to CommitContext.
Note that it's problematic to encounter with such a memory-allocation
error for other objects created in `PushSubXact()` as well, so above is
an **example** scenario that might result in a segfault.
DESCRIPTION: Fixes a bug that might cause segfaults when handling deeply
nested subtransactions
DESCRIPTION: Makes sure to disallow triggers that depend on extensions
We were already doing so for `ALTER trigger DEPENDS ON EXTENSION`
commands. However, we also need to disallow creating Citus tables
having such triggers already, so this PR fixes that.
DESCRIPTION: Improve a query that terminates compeling backends from citus_update_node()
1. Use pg_blocking_pids() function instead of self join on pg_locks. It exists since 9.6 and more accurate than pg_locks.
2. Prefix all function calls with pg_catalog schema to prevent privilege escalation by creating functions with similar names in a public schema.
3. Change logs and update comments to reflect the fact that the pg_terminate_backend() function only sends SIGTERM but not wating for the actual backend termination.
DESCRIPTION: Allow citus_update_node() to work with nodes from different clusters
citus_update_node(), citus_nodename_for_nodeid(), and citus_nodeport_for_nodeid() functions only checked for nodes in their own clusters and hence last two returned NULLs and the first one showed an error is the nodeId was from a different cluster.
Fixes https://github.com/citusdata/citus/issues/6433
increasing logical clock. Clock guarantees to never go back in value after restarts,
and makes best attempt to keep the value close to unix epoch time in milliseconds.
Also, introduces a new GUC "citus.enable_cluster_clock", when true, every
distributed transaction is stamped with logical causal clock and persisted
in a catalog pg_dist_commit_transaction.
DESCRIPTION: Drops GUC defer_drop_after_shard_split
DESCRIPTION: Drops GUC defer_drop_after_shard_move
Drop GUCs and related parts from the code.
Delete tests that specifically added for the GUCs.
Keep tests that can be used without the GUCs.
Update test output changes.
The motivation for this PR is to have an "always deferring" mechanism.
These two GUCs provide an option to not deferring dropping objects
during a shard move/split, and dropping them immediately. With this PR,
we will be always deferring dropping orphaned shards and other types of
objects.
We will have a separate PR to extend the deferred cleanup operation, so
that we would create records for deferred drop, for Subscriptions,
Publications, Replication Slots etc. This will make us be able to keep
track of created objects that needs to be dropped, during a shard
move/split. We will have objects created specifically for the current
operation; and those objects will be dropped at the end.
We have an issue (a draft roadmap) for enabling parallel shard moves.
For details please see: https://github.com/citusdata/citus/issues/6437
This didn't cause any bugs since today we're always calling
UpdateAutoConvertedForConnectedRelations with autoconverted=false, so we
don't need to backport this to anywhere.
We should not introduce breaking sql changes to upgrade files after they
are released. We did that for worker_fetch_foreign_file in v9.0.0 and
worker_repartition_cleanup in v9.2.0. Later when we try to drop those
udfs, they were missing for some clients unexpectedly due to breaking
change in an old upgrade script. For that case, the fix is to add DROP
IF EXISTS for those 2 udfs in 11.0-4--11.1-1.
This crash happens with recursively planned queries. For such queries,
subplans are explained via the ExplainOnePlan function of postgresql.
This function reconstructs the query description from the plan therefore
it expects the ActiveSnaphot for the query be available. This fix makes
sure that the snapshot is in the stack before calling ExplainOnePlan.
Fixes#2920.
DESCRIPTION: Don't leak search_path to workers on DDL
For DDL we have to set the `search_path` on workers to the same as on
the coordinator for some DDL to work. Previously this search_path would
leak outside of the transaction that was used for the DDL. This fixes
that by using `SET LOCAL` instead of `SET`. The only place where we
still use plain `SET` is for DDL commands that are not allowed within
transactions, such as `CREATE INDEX CONCURRENLTY`.
This fixes this flaky test:
```diff

I had tried to fix this flaky test in #5894 and then I tried
implementing a better fix in #5896, where @marcocitus suggested this
better fix. This change reverts the fix from #5894 and implements the
fix suggested by Marco.
Our multi_mx_alter_distributed_table test actually depended on the old
buggy search_path leaking behavior. After fixing the bug that test would
fail like this:
```diff
CALL proc_0(1.0);
DEBUG: pushing down the procedure
-NOTICE: Res: 3
-DETAIL: from localhost:xxxxx
+ERROR: relation "test_proc_colocation_0" does not exist
+CONTEXT: PL/pgSQL function mx_alter_distributed_table.proc_0(double precision) line 5 at SQL statement
+while executing command on localhost:57637
RESET client_min_messages;
```
I fixed this test by fully qualifying the table names used in the
procedure. I think it's quite unlikely that actual users depend
on this behavior though. Since it would require first doing
DDL before calling a procedure in a session where the
search_path was changed after connecting.
DESCRIPTION: Adds failure test for shard move
DESCRIPTION: Remove function `WaitForAllSubscriptionsToBecomeReady` and
related tests
Adding some failure tests for shard moves.
Dropping the not-needed-anymore function
`WaitForAllSubscriptionsToBecomeReady`, as the subscriptions now start
as ready from the beginning because we don't use logical replication
table sync workers anymore.
fixes: #6260
To be able to test non-blocking shard moves we take an advisory lock, so
we can pause the shard move at an interesting moment. Originally this
was during the logical replication catch up phase. But when I added
tests for the rebalancer progress I moved this lock before the initial
data copy. This allowed testing of the rebalance progress, but
inadvertently made our non-blocking tests not actually test if we held
unintended locks during logical replication catch up.
This fixes that by creating two types of advisory locks, one before the
copy and one after. This causes the tests to actually test their
intended scenario again.
Furthermore it starts using one of these locks for blocking shard moves
too. Which allowed me to reduce the complexity of the rebalance progress
test suite quite a bit. It also allowed enabling some flaky tests again,
because this stopped them from being flaky. And finally it allowed
testing of rebalance progress for blocking shard copy operations as
well.
In passing it fixes a flaky test during parallel blocking shard moves by
ordering the output.
DESCRIPTION: Adds status column to get_rebalance_progress()
Introduces a new column named `status` for the function
`get_rebalance_progress()`. For each ongoing shard move, this column
will reveal information about that shard move operation's current
status.
For now, candidate status messages could be one of the below.
* Not Started
* Setting Up
* Copying Data
* Catching Up
* Creating Constraints
* Final Catchup
* Creating Foreign Keys
* Completing
* Completed
Deparser function set_relation_column_names() knows that it needs to
re-evaluate column names based on relation's tuple descriptor when
the rte belongs to a relation (RTE_RELATION).
However before this commit, it didn't know about the fact that citus
might wrap such an rte with an rte that points to
citus_extradata_container() placeholder.
And because of this, it was simply taking the column aliases
(e.g., "bar" in "foo AS bar") into the account and this might result in
an incorrectly deparsed query as in below case:
* Say, if we had view based on following query:
```sql
SELECT a FROM table;
```
* And if we rename column "a" to "b", the view query normally becomes:
```sql
SELECT b AS a FROM table;
```
* So before this commit, deparsing a query based on that view was
resulting in such a query due to deparsing based on the column aliases,
which is not correct:
```sql
SELECT a FROM table;
```
Fixes#5932.
DESCRIPTION: Fixes a bug that might cause failing to query the views
based on tables that have renamed columns
PostgreSQL 15 exposes WL_SOCKET_CLOSED in WaitEventSet API, which is
useful for detecting closed remote sockets. In this patch, we use this
new event and try to detect closed remote sockets in the executor.
When a closed socket is detected, the executor now has the ability to
retry the connection establishment. Note that, the executor can retry
connection establishments only for the connection that has not been
used. Basically, this patch is mostly useful for preventing the executor
to fail if a cached connection is closed because of the worker node
restart (or worker failover).
In other words, the executor cannot retry connection establishment if we
are in a distributed transaction AND any command has been sent over the
connection. That requires more sophisticated retry mechanisms. For now,
fixing the above use case is enough.
Fixes#5538
Earlier discussions: #5908, #6259 and #6283
### Summary of the current approach regards to earlier trials
As noted, we explored some alternatives before getting into this.
https://github.com/citusdata/citus/pull/6283 is simple, but lacks an
important property. We should be checking for `WL_SOCKET_CLOSED`
_before_ sending anything over the wire. Otherwise, it becomes very
tricky to understand which connection is actually safe to retry. For
example, in the current patch, we can safely check
`transaction->transactionState == REMOTE_TRANS_NOT_STARTED` before
restarting a connection.
#6259 does what we intent here (e.g., check for sending any command).
However, as @marcocitus noted, it is very tricky to handle
`WaitEventSets` in multiple places. And, the executor is designed such
that it reacts to the events. So, adding anything `pre-executor` seemed
too ugly.
In the end, I converged into this patch. This patch relies on the
simplicity of #6283 and also does a very limited handling of
`WaitEventSets`, just for our purpose. Just before we add any connection
to the execution, we check if the remote session has already closed.
With that, we do a brief interaction of multiple wait event processing,
but with different purposes. The new wait event processing we added does
not even consider cancellations. We let that handled by the main event
processing loop.

In #6405 I added better improved blocked process detection for isolation
tests. But when cleaning up unnecessary code I cleaned up a bit too
much. This actually includes the new function definition in our
migrations.
If an operation requires having coordinator in pg_dist_node and if that
is not the case, then we automatically add the coordinator into
pg_dist_node if user didn't add any worker nodes yet.
However, if user have already added some worker nodes before, we throw
an error. With this commit, we improve the error thrown in that case.
Closes#6423 based on the discussion made there.
Sometimes our CI randomly fails on a test in a way similar to this:
```diff
step s2-drop:
DROP TABLE cancel_table;
-
+ <waiting ...>
+step s2-drop: <... completed>
starting permutation: s1-timeout s1-begin s1-sleep10000 s1-rollback s1-reset s1-drop
```

I tried to fix that already in #6252 by disabling the maintenance daemon
during isolation tests. But it seems that hasn't fixed all cases of
these errors. This is another attempt at fixing these issues that seems
to have better results.
What it does is that it starts using the pInterestingPids parameter that
citus_isolation_test_session_is_blocked receives. With this change we
start filter out block-edges that are not caused by any of these pids.
In passing this change also makes it possible to run
`isolation_create_distributed_table_concurrently` with
`check-isolation-base`
PG15 introduced a function called ReplicationSlotName that causes
conflicts with our function with the same name. I solved this issue by
renaming our function to ReplicationSlotNameForNodeAndOwner

DESCRIPTION: Fix bug in global PID assignment for rebalancer

It turned out this was an actual bug in the way our assigning of global
PIDs interacts with the way we connect to ourselves as the shard
rebalancer. The first command the shard rebalancer sends is a SET
ommand to change the application_name to `citus_rebalancer`. If
`StartupCitusBackend` is called after this command is processed, then it
overwrites the global PID that was extracted from the previous
application_name. This makes sure that we don't do that, and continue to
use the original global PID. While it might seem that we only call
`StartupCitusBackend` once for each query backend, this isn't actually
the case. Whenever pg_dist_partition gets ANALYZEd by autovacuum
we indirectly call `StartupCitusBackend` again, because we invalidate
the cache then.
In passing this fixes two other things as well:
1. It sets `distributedCommandOriginator` correctly in
`AssignGlobalPID`, by using IsExternalClientBackend(). This doesn't
matter much anymore, since AssignGlobalPID effectively becomes a
no-op in this PR for any non-external client backends.
2. It passes the application_name to InitializeBackendData in
StartupCitusBackend, instead of INVALID_CITUS_INTERNAL_BACKEND_GPID
(which effectively got casted to NULL). In practice this doesn't
change the behaviour of the call, since the call is a no-op for every
backend except the maintenance daemon. And the behaviour of the call
is the same for NULL as for the application_name of the maintenance
daemon.
