DESCRIPTION: Adds support for issuing `CREATE`/`DROP` DATABASE commands from worker nodes With this commit, we allow issuing CREATE / DROP DATABASE commands from worker nodes too. As in #7278, this is not allowed when the coordinator is not added to metadata because we don't ever sync metadata changes to coordinator when adding coordinator to the metadata via `SELECT citus_set_coordinator_host('<hostname>')`, or equivalently, via `SELECT citus_add_node(<coordinator_node_name>, <coordinator_node_port>, 0)`. We serialize database management commands by acquiring a Citus specific advisory lock on the first primary worker node if there are any workers in the cluster. As opposed to what we've done in https://github.com/citusdata/citus/pull/7278 for role management commands, we try to avoid from running into distributed deadlocks as much as possible. This is because, while distributed deadlocks that can happen around role management commands can be detected by Citus, this is not the case for database management commands because most of them cannot be run inside in a transaction block. In that case, Citus cannot even detect the distributed deadlock because the command is not part of a distributed transaction at all, then the command execution might not return the control back to the user for an indefinite amount of time. |
