The non-superuser needs to have REPLICATION privileges atleast. A
new function "subscription_cmd" has been added to allow running
subscription related commands on datanodes. This function implicitly
upgrades to the bootstrapped superuser and then performs subscription
creation/alteration/deletion commands. It only accepts subscriptions
related commands and errors out otherwise.
Allow users to specify an explicit "operation_id" while carrying out
a copy/move operation. If it's specified then that is used as the
identifier for the copy/move operation. Otherwise, am implicit id as
before gets created and used.
First step to remove the re-aggregation for Continuous Aggregates
is to remove the `chunk_id` from the materialization hypertable.
Also added new metadata column named `finalized` to `continuous_cagg`
catalog table in order to store information about the new following
finalized version of Continuous Aggregates that will not need the
partials anymore. This flag is important to maintain backward
compatibility with previous Continuous Aggregate implementation that
requires the `chunk_id` to refresh data properly.
A chunk copy/move operation is carried out in stages and it can
fail in any of them. We track the last completed stage in the
"chunk_copy_operation" catalog table. In case of failure, a
"chunk_copy_cleanup" function can be invoked to bring the chunk back
to its original state on the source datanode and all transient objects
like replication slot, publication, subscription, empty chunk, metadata
updates, etc are cleaned up.
Includes test case changes for each and every stage induced failure.
To avoid confusion between chunk copy activity and chunk copy operation
this patch also consistently uses "operation" everywhere now instead of
"activity"
Remove copy_chunk_data() function and code needed to support it,
such as the 'transactional' argument.
Rework copy chunk logic using separate stages.
Introduce copy_chunk() API function as an internal wrapper for
the move_chunk().
