This PR introduces infrastructure and validation to detect breaking
changes during Citus minor version upgrades, designed to run in release
branches only.
**Breaking change detection:**
- [GUCs] Detects removed GUCs and changes to default values
- [UDFs] Detects removed functions and function signature changes --
Supports backward-compatible function overloading (new optional
parameters allowed)
- [types] Detects removed data types
- [tables/views] Detects removed tables/views and removed/changed
columns
- New make targets for minor version upgrade tests
- Follow-up PRs will add test schedules with different upgrade scenarios
The test will be enabled in release branches (e.g., release-13) via the
new test-citus-minor-upgrade job shown below. It will not run on the
main branch.
Testing
Verified locally with sample breaking changes:
`make check-citus-minor-upgrade-local citus-old-version=v13.2.0 `
**Test case 1:** Backward-compatible signature change (allowed)
```
-- Old: CREATE FUNCTION pg_catalog.citus_blocking_pids(pBlockedPid integer)
-- New: CREATE FUNCTION pg_catalog.citus_blocking_pids(pBlockedPid integer, pBlockedByPid integer DEFAULT NULL)
```
No breaking change detected (new parameter has DEFAULT)
**Test case 2:** Incompatible signature change (breaking)
```
-- Old: CREATE FUNCTION pg_catalog.citus_blocking_pids(pBlockedPid integer)
-- New: CREATE FUNCTION pg_catalog.citus_blocking_pids(pBlockedPid integer, pBlockedByPid integer)
```
Breaking change detected:
`UDF signature removed: pg_catalog.citus_blocking_pids(pblockedpid
integer) RETURNS integer[]`
**Test case 3:** GUC changes (breaking)
- Removed `citus.max_worker_nodes_tracked`
- Changed default value of `citus.max_shared_pool_size` from 0 to 4
Breaking change detected:
```
The default value of GUC citus.max_shared_pool_size was changed from 0 to 4
GUC citus.max_worker_nodes_tracked was removed
```
**Test case 4:** Table/view changes
- Dropped `pg_catalog.pg_dist_rebalance_strategy` and removed a column
from `pg_catalog.citus_lock_waits`
```
- Column blocking_nodeid in table/view pg_catalog.citus_lock_waits was removed
- Table/view pg_catalog.pg_dist_rebalance_strategy was removed
```
**Test case 5:** Remove a custom type
- Dropped `cluster_clock` and the objects depend on it. In addition to
the dependent objects, test shows:
```
- Type pg_catalog.cluster_clock was removed
```
Sample new job for build and test workflow (for release branches):
