This change adds a script to programatically group all includes in a
specific order. The script was used as a one time invocation to group
and sort all includes throught our formatted code. The grouping is as
follows:
- System includes (eg. `#include<...>`)
- Postgres.h (eg. `#include "postgres.h"`)
- Toplevel imports from postgres, not contained in a directory (eg.
`#include "miscadmin.h"`)
- General postgres includes (eg . `#include "nodes/..."`)
- Toplevel citus includes, not contained in a directory (eg. `#include
"citus_verion.h"`)
- Columnar includes (eg. `#include "columnar/..."`)
- Distributed includes (eg. `#include "distributed/..."`)
Because it is quite hard to understand the difference between toplevel
citus includes and toplevel postgres includes it hardcodes the list of
toplevel citus includes. In the same manner it assumes anything not
prefixed with `columnar/` or `distributed/` as a postgres include.
The sorting/grouping is enforced by CI. Since we do so with our own
script there are not changes required in our uncrustify configuration.
Add citus_schema_move() that can be used to move tenant tables within a distributed
schema to another node. The function has two variations as simple wrappers around
citus_move_shard_placement() and citus_move_shard_placement_with_nodeid() respectively.
They pick a shard that belongs to the given tenant schema and resolve the source node
that contain the shards under given tenant schema. Hence their signatures are quite
similar to underlying functions:
```sql
-- citus_schema_move(), using target node name and node port
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION pg_catalog.citus_schema_move(
schema_id regnamespace,
target_node_name text,
target_node_port integer,
shard_transfer_mode citus.shard_transfer_mode default 'auto')
RETURNS void
LANGUAGE C STRICT
AS 'MODULE_PATHNAME', $$citus_schema_move$$;
-- citus_schema_move(), using target node id
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION pg_catalog.citus_schema_move(
schema_id regnamespace,
target_node_id integer,
shard_transfer_mode citus.shard_transfer_mode default 'auto')
RETURNS void
LANGUAGE C STRICT
AS 'MODULE_PATHNAME', $$citus_schema_move_with_nodeid$$;
```
DESCRIPTION: Adds citus.enable_schema_based_sharding GUC that allows
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.
Previously this was usually done after argument parsing. This can cause
SEGFAULTs if the number or type of arguments changes in a new version.
By checking that Citus version is correct before doing any argument
parsing we protect against these types of issues. Issues like this have
occurred in pg_auto_failover, so it's not just a theoretical issue.
The main reason why these calls were not at the top of functions is
really just historical. It was because in the past we didn't allow
statements before declarations. Thus having this check before the
argument parsing would have only been possible if we first declared all
variables.
In addition to moving existing CheckCitusVersion calls it also adds
these calls to rebalancer related functions (they were missing there).
The file handling the utility functions (DDL) for citus organically grew over time and became unreasonably large. This refactor takes that file and refactored the functionality into separate files per command. Initially modeled after the directory and file layout that can be found in postgres.
Although the size of the change is quite big there are barely any code changes. Only one two functions have been added for readability purposes:
- PostProcessIndexStmt which is extracted from PostProcessUtility
- PostProcessAlterTableStmt which is extracted from multi_ProcessUtility
A README.md has been added to `src/backend/distributed/commands` describing the contents of the module and every file in the module.
We need more documentation around the overloading of the COPY command, for now the boilerplate has been added for people with better knowledge to fill out.
This commit fixes a bug where a concurrent DROP TABLE deadlocks
with SELECT (or DML) when the SELECT is executed from the workers.
The problem was that Citus used to remove the metadata before
droping the table on the workers. That creates a time window
where the SELECT starts running on some of the nodes and DROP
table on some of the other nodes.
