Three changes here to get to true multi-statement, multi-relation DDL
transactions (same functionality pre-5.2, with benefits of atomicity):
1. Changed the multi-shard utility hook to always run (consistency
with router executor hook, removes ad-hoc "installed" boolean)
2. Change the global connection list in multi_shard_transaction to
instead be a hash; update related functions to operate on global
hash instead of local hash/global list
3. Remove check within DDL code to prevent subsequent DDL commands;
place unset/reset guard around call to ConnectToNode to permit
connecting to additional nodes after DDL transaction has begun
In addition, code has been added to raise an error if a ROLLBACK TO
SAVEPOINT is attempted (similar to router executor), and comprehensive
tests execute all multi-DDL scenarios (full success, user ROLLBACK, any
actual errors (say, duplicate index), partial failure (duplicate index
on one node but not others), partial COMMIT (one node fails), and 2PC
partial PREPARE (one node fails)). Interleavings with other commands
(DML, \copy) are similarly all covered.
Recent changes to DDL and transaction logic resulted in a "regression"
from the viewpoint of users. Previously, DDL commands were allowed in
multi-command transaction blocks, though they were not processed in any
actual transactional manner. We improved the atomicity of our DDL code,
but added a restriction that DDL commands themselves must not occur in
any BEGIN/END transaction block.
To give users back the original functionality (and improved atomicity)
we now keep track of whether a multi-command transaction has modified
data (DML) or schema (DDL). Interleaving the two modification types in
a single transaction is disallowed.
This first step simply permits a single DDL command in such a block,
admittedly an incomplete solution, but one which will permit us to add
full multi-DDL command support in a subsequent commit.
Fixes#547
This change removes all references to \stage in the regression tests
and puts \COPY instead. Doing so changed shard counts, min/max
values on some test tables (lineitem, orders, etc.).
Fixes#679
This change sets the default commit protocol for distributed DDL
commands to '1pc'. If the user issues a distributed DDL command with
this default setting, then once in a session, a NOTICE message is
shown about using '2pc' being extra safe.
Fixes#132
We hook into ALTER ... SET SCHEMA and warn out if user tries to change schema of a
distributed table.
We also hook into ALTER TABLE ALL IN TABLE SPACE statements and warn out if citus has
been loaded.
Fixes#513
This change modifies the DDL Propagation logic so that DDL queries
are propagated via 2-Phase Commit protocol. This way, failures during
the execution of distributed DDL commands will not leave the table in
an intermediate state and the pending prepared transactions can be
commited manually.
DDL commands are not allowed inside other transaction blocks or functions.
DDL commands are performed with 2PC regardless of the value of
`citus.multi_shard_commit_protocol` parameter.
The workflow of the successful case is this:
1. Open individual connections to all shard placements and send `BEGIN`
2. Send `SELECT worker_apply_shard_ddl_command(<shardId>, <DDL Command>)`
to all connections, one by one, in a serial manner.
3. Send `PREPARE TRANSCATION <transaction_id>` to all connections.
4. Sedn `COMMIT` to all connections.
Failure cases:
- If a worker problem occurs before sending of all DDL commands is finished, then
all changes are rolled back.
- If a worker problem occurs after all DDL commands are sent but not after
`PREPARE TRANSACTION` commands are finished, then all changes are rolled back.
However, if a worker node is failed, then the prepared transactions in that worker
should be rolled back manually.
- If a worker problem occurs during `COMMIT PREPARED` statements are being sent,
then the prepared transactions on the failed workers should be commited manually.
- If master fails before the first 'PREPARE TRANSACTION' is sent, then nothing is
changed on workers.
- If master fails during `PREPARE TRANSACTION` commands are being sent, then the
prepared transactions on workers should be rolled back manually.
- If master fails during `COMMIT PREPARED` or `ROLLBACK PREPARED` commands are being
sent, then the remaining prepared transactions on the workers should be handled manually.
This change also helps with #480, since failed DDL changes no longer mark
failed placements as inactive.
Fixes#271
This change sets ShardIds and JobIds for each test case. Before this change,
when a new test that somehow increments Job or Shard IDs is added, then
the tests after the new test should be updated.
ShardID and JobID sequences are set at the beginning of each file with the
following commands:
```
ALTER SEQUENCE pg_catalog.pg_dist_shardid_seq RESTART 290000;
ALTER SEQUENCE pg_catalog.pg_dist_jobid_seq RESTART 290000;
```
ShardIds and JobIds are multiples of 10000. Exceptions are:
- multi_large_shardid: shardid and jobid sequences are set to much larger values
- multi_fdw_large_shardid: same as above
- multi_join_pruning: Causes a race condition with multi_hash_pruning since
they are run in parallel.
The previous form of the test, utilizing DEBUG2, included too much
output dependent on the specifc system and version. Reformulate it to
explicitly connect to workers and show the schema there, when necessary.
The only remaining difference in some of the remaining alternate
regression test files was due to an older minor version release
change. Remove those as well.
