It can be useful, e.g. in the upcoming prepared statement support, to
be able to return an error from a function that is not raised
immediately, but can later be thrown. That allows e.g. to attempt to
plan a statment using different methods and to create good error
messages in each planner, but to only error out after all planners
have been run.
To enable that create support for deferred error messages that can be
created (supporting errorcode, message, detail, hint) in one function,
and then thrown in different place.
Adds support for PostgreSQL 9.6 by copying in the requisite ruleutils
file and refactoring the out/readfuncs code to flexibly support the
old-style copy/pasted out/readfuncs (prior to 9.6) or use extensible
node APIs (in 9.6 and higher).
Most version-specific code within this change is only needed to set new
fields in the AggRef nodes we build for aggregations. Version-specific
test output files were added in certain cases, though in most they were
not necessary. Each such file begins by e.g. printing the major version
in order to clarify its purpose.
The comment atop citus_nodes.h details how to add support for new nodes
for when that becomes necessary.
So far placements were assigned an Oid, but that was just used to track
insertion order. It also did so incompletely, as it was not preserved
across changes of the shard state. The behaviour around oid wraparound
was also not entirely as intended.
The newly introduced, explicitly assigned, IDs are preserved across
shard-state changes.
The prime goal of this change is not to improve ordering of task
assignment policies, but to make it easier to reference shards. The
newly introduced UpdateShardPlacementState() makes use of that, and so
will the in-progress connection and transaction management changes.
All citusdb references in
- extension, binary names
- file headers
- all configuration name prefixes
- error/warning messages
- some functions names
- regression tests
are changed to be citus.
