In #3374 a new way of locking shard distribution metadata was
implemented. However, this was only done in the function
`LockShardDistributionMetadata` and not in
`TryLockShardDistributionMetadata`. This is bad, since it causes these
locks to not block eachother in some cases.
This commit fixes this issue by sharing the code that sets the locktag
between the two function.
When creating a new distributed table. The shards would colocate with shards
with SHARD_STATE_TO_DELETE (shardstate = 4). This means if that state was
because of a shard move the new shard would be created on two nodes and it
would not get deleted since it's shard state would be 1.

Deparsing and parsing a query can be heavy on CPU. When locally executing
the query we don't need to do this in theory most of the time.
This PR is the first step in allowing to skip deparsing and parsing
the query in these cases, by lazily creating the query string and
storing the query in the task. Future commits will make use of this and
not deparse and parse the query anymore, but use the one from the task
directly.
This is purely to enable better performance with prepared statements.
Before this commit, the fast path queries with prepared statements
where the distribution key includes a parameter always went through
distributed planning. After this change, we only go through distributed
planning on the first 5 executions.
DESCRIPTION: Fixes a problem when adding a new node due to tables referenced in a functions body
Fixes#3378
It was reported that `master_add_node` would fail if a distributed function has a table name referenced in its declare section of the body. By default postgres validates the body of a function on creation. This is not a problem in the normal case as tables are replicated to the workers when we distribute functions.
However when a new node is added we first create dependencies on the workers before we try to create any tables, and the original tables get created out of bound when the metadata gets synced to the new node. This causes the function body validator to raise an error the table is not on the worker.
To mitigate this issue we set `check_function_bodies` to `off` right before we are creating the function.
The added test shows this does resolve the issue. (issue can be reproduced on the commit without the fix)
In this commit, we're introducing a way to prevent CTE inlining via a GUC.
The GUC is used in all the tests where PG 11 and PG 12 tests would diverge
otherwise.
Note that, in PG 12, the restriction information for CTEs are generated. It
means that for some queries involving CTEs, Citus planner (router planner/
pushdown planner) may behave differently. So, via the GUC, we prevent
tests to diverge on PG 11 vs PG 12.
When we drop PG 11 support, we should get rid of the GUC, and mark
relevant ctes as MATERIALIZED, which does the same thing.
These set of tests has changed in both PG 11 and PG 12.
The changes are only about CTE inlining kicking in both
versions, and yielding the exact same distributed planning.
The idea is simple: Inline CTEs(if any), try distributed planning.
If the planning yields a successful distributed plan, simply return
it.
If the planning fails, fallback to distributed planning on the query
tree where CTEs are not inlined. In that case, if the planning failed
just because of the CTE inlining, via recursive planning, the same
query would yield a successful plan.
A very basic set of examples:
WITH cte_1 AS (SELECT * FROM test_table)
SELECT
*, row_number() OVER ()
FROM
cte_1;
or
WITH a AS (SELECT * FROM test_table),
b AS (SELECT * FROM test_table)
SELECT * FROM a JOIN b ON (a.value> b.value);
With this commit we add the necessary Citus function to inline CTEs
in a queryTree.
You might ask, why do we need to inline CTEs if Postgres is already
going to do it?
Few reasons behind this decision:
- One techinal node here is that Citus does the recursive CTE planning
by checking the originalQuery which is the query that has not gone
through the standard_planner().
CTEs in Citus is super powerful. It is practically key for full SQL
coverage for multi-shard queries. With CTEs, you can always reduce
any query multi-shard query into a router query via recursive
planning (thus full SQL coverage).
We cannot let CTE inlining break that. The main idea is Citus should
be able to retry planning if anything goes after CTE inlining.
So, by taking ownership of CTE inlining on the originalQuery, Citus
can fallback to recursive planning of CTEs if the planning with the
inlined query fails. It could have been a lot harder if we had relied
on standard_planner() to have the inlined CTEs on the original query.
- We want to have this feature in PostgreSQL 11 as well, but Postgres
only inlines in version 12
All the code in this commit is direct copy & paste from Postgres
source code.
We can classify the copy&paste code into two:
- Copy paste from CTE inline patch from postgres
(https://git.postgresql.org/gitweb/?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=608b167f9f9c4553c35bb1ec0eab9ddae643989b)
These include the functions inline_cte(), inline_cte_walker(),
contain_dml(), contain_dml_walker().
It also include the code in function PostgreSQLCTEInlineCondition().
We prefer to extract that code into a seperate function, because
(a) we'll re-use the logic later (b) we added one check for PG_11
Finally, the struct "inline_cte_walker_context" is also copied from
the same Postgres commit.
- Copy paste from the other parts of the Postgres code
In order to implement CTE inlining in Postgres 12, the hackers
modified the query_tree_walker()/range_table_walker() with the
18c0da88a5
Since Citus needs to support the same logic in PG 11, we copy & pasted
that functions (and related flags) with the names pg_12_query_tree_walker()
and pg_12_range_table_walker()
In two places I've made code more straight forward by using ROUTINE in our own codegen
Two changes which may seem extraneous:
AppendFunctionName was updated to not use pg_get_function_identity_arguments.
This is because that function includes ORDER BY when printing an aggregate like my_rank.
While ALTER AGGREGATE my_rank(x "any" ORDER BY y "any") is accepted by postgres,
ALTER ROUTINE my_rank(x "any" ORDER BY y "any") is not.
Tests were updated to use macaddr over integer. Using integer is flaky, our logic
could sometimes end up on tables like users_table. I originally wanted to use money,
but money isn't hashable.
