This change fixes two issues with `add_data_node`: 1. In one case, a check for a valid connection pointer was not done, causing a segmentation fault when connection attempts failed. 2. Connections were made with a blocking API that hangs indefinitely when the receiving end is not responding. The user couldn't cancel the connection attempt with CTRL-C, since no wait latch or interrupt checking was used. The code is now updated to use a non-blocking connection API, where it is possible to wait on the socket and latch, respecting interrupts.

Looks good to me.
I think it might be possible to test it by setting statement timeout, it will likely go through CHECK_FOR_INTERRUPTS()
as well
Good point. I'll try it. Although I think the issue is having a remote endpoint that accepts a connection but is not responding. |
Couldn't get this to work. I think one way to do it is to set up a listening socket in a separate thread (C code) and then connect to that. But that's a bit more work than I think we can afford right now, so I will look into that as a separate PR. |
…ncluding several release candidates. TimescaleDB 2.0 adds the much-anticipated support for distributed hypertables (multi-node TimescaleDB), as well as new features and enhancements to core functionality to give users better clarity and more control and flexibility over their data. Multi-node architecture: In particular, with TimescaleDB 2.0, users can now create distributed hypertables across multiple instances of TimescaleDB, configured so that one instance serves as an access node and multiple others as data nodes. All queries for a distributed hypertable are issued to the access node, but inserted data and queries are pushed down across data nodes for greater scale and performance. This release also adds: * Support for user-defined actions, allowing users to define, customize, and schedule automated tasks, which can be run by the built-in jobs scheduling framework now exposed to users. * Significant changes to continuous aggregates, which now separate view creation from the policy. Users can now refresh individual regions of the continuous aggregate materialized view, or schedule automated refreshing via policy. * Redesigned informational views, including new (and more general) views for information about policies and user-defined actions, as well as support for multi-node TimescaleDB. * Moving all formerly enterprise features into our Community Edition, and updating Timescale License, which now provides additional (more permissive) rights to users and developers. Some of the changes above (e.g., continuous aggregates, updated informational views) do introduce breaking changes to APIs and are not backwards compatible. While the update scripts in TimescaleDB 2.0 should upgrade databases running TimescaleDB 1.x automatically, some of these API and feature changes may require changes to clients and/or upstream scripts that rely on the previous APIs. Before upgrading, we recommend reviewing upgrade documentation at docs.timescale.com for more details. **Major Features** TimescaleDB 2.0 moves the following major features to GA: * timescale#1923 Add support for distributed hypertables * timescale#2006 Add support for user-defined actions * Improve Continuous Aggregate API * Redesign informational views * timescale#2435 Move enterprise features to community * timescale#2437 Update Timescale License **Previous Release Candidates** * timescale#2702 Release Candidate 4 (December 2, 2020) * timescale#2637 Release Candidate 3 (November 12, 2020) * timescale#2554 Release Candidate 2 (October 20, 2020) * timescale#2478 Release Candidate 1 (October 1, 2020) **Minor Features** Since the last release candidate 4, it includes several minor improvements: * timescale#2746 Optimize locking for create chunk API * timescale#2705 Block tableoid access on distributed hypertable * timescale#2730 Do not allow unique index on compressed hypertables **Bugfixes** Since the last release candidate 4, it includes several bugfixes: * timescale#2719 Support disabling compression on distributed hypertables * timescale#2742 Fix compression status in chunks view for distributed chunks * timescale#2751 Fix crash and cancel when adding data node **Thanks** Thanks to all contributors for the TimescaleDB 2.0 release: * @airton-neto for reporting a bug in executing some queries with UNION * @nshah14285 for reporting an issue with propagating privileges * @kalman5 for reporting an issue with renaming constraints * @LbaNeXte for reporting a bug in decompression for queries with subqueries * @semtexzv for reporting an issue with continuous aggregates on int-based hypertables * @mr-ns for reporting an issue with privileges for creating chunks * @cloud-rocket for reporting an issue with setting an owner on continuous aggregate * @jocrau for reporting a bug during creating an index with transaction per chunk * @fvannee for reporting an issue with custom time types * @ArtificialPB for reporting a bug in executing queries with conditional ordering on compressed hypertable * @dutchgecko for reporting an issue with continuous aggregate datatype handling * @lambdaq for suggesting to improve error message in continuous aggregate creation* @francesco11112 for reporting memory issue on COPY * @Netskeh for reporting bug on time_bucket problem in continuous aggregates * @mr-ns for reporting the issue with CTEs on distributed hypertables * @akamensky for reporting an issue with recursive cache invalidation * @ryanbooz for reporting slow queries with real-time aggregation on continuous aggregates * @cevian for reporting an issue with disabling compression on distributed hypertables

With this release, we are officially moving TimescaleDB 2.0 to GA, concluding several release candidates. TimescaleDB 2.0 adds the much-anticipated support for distributed hypertables (multi-node TimescaleDB), as well as new features and enhancements to core functionality to give users better clarity and more control and flexibility over their data. Multi-node architecture: In particular, with TimescaleDB 2.0, users can now create distributed hypertables across multiple instances of TimescaleDB, configured so that one instance serves as an access node and multiple others as data nodes. All queries for a distributed hypertable are issued to the access node, but inserted data and queries are pushed down across data nodes for greater scale and performance. Multi-node TimescaleDB can be self managed or, for easier operation, launched within Timescale's fully-managed cloud services. This release also adds: * Support for user-defined actions, allowing users to define, customize, and schedule automated tasks, which can be run by the built-in jobs scheduling framework now exposed to users. * Significant changes to continuous aggregates, which now separate the view creation from the policy. Users can now refresh individual regions of the continuous aggregate materialized view, or schedule automated refreshing via policy. * Redesigned informational views, including new (and more general) views for information about hypertable's dimensions and chunks, policies and user-defined actions, as well as support for multi-node TimescaleDB. * Moving all formerly enterprise features into our Community Edition, and updating Timescale License, which now provides additional (more permissive) rights to users and developers.

With this release, we are officially moving TimescaleDB 2.0 to GA, concluding several release candidates. TimescaleDB 2.0 adds the much-anticipated support for distributed hypertables (multi-node TimescaleDB), as well as new features and enhancements to core functionality to give users better clarity and more control and flexibility over their data. Multi-node architecture: In particular, with TimescaleDB 2.0, users can now create distributed hypertables across multiple instances of TimescaleDB, configured so that one instance serves as an access node and multiple others as data nodes. All queries for a distributed hypertable are issued to the access node, but inserted data and queries are pushed down across data nodes for greater scale and performance. Multi-node TimescaleDB can be self managed or, for easier operation, launched within Timescale's fully-managed cloud services. This release also adds: * Support for user-defined actions, allowing users to define, customize, and schedule automated tasks, which can be run by the built-in jobs scheduling framework now exposed to users. * Significant changes to continuous aggregates, which now separate the view creation from the policy. Users can now refresh individual regions of the continuous aggregate materialized view, or schedule automated refreshing via policy. * Redesigned informational views, including new (and more general) views for information about hypertable's dimensions and chunks, policies and user-defined actions, as well as support for multi-node TimescaleDB. * Moving all formerly enterprise features into our Community Edition, and updating Timescale License, which now provides additional (more permissive) rights to users and developers. Some of the changes above (e.g., continuous aggregates, updated informational views) do introduce breaking changes to APIs and are not backwards compatible.

This change fixes two issues with
add_data_node
:In one case, a check for a valid connection pointer was not done,
causing a segmentation fault when connection attempts failed.
Connections were made with a blocking API that would hang
indefinitely if the receiving end is not responding. The user
couldn't cancel the connection attempt with CTRL-C, since no wait
latch or interrupt checking was used. The code is now updated to
use a non-blocking connection API, where it is possible to wait on
the socket and latch, respecting interrupts.
This was tested locally by setting up a bogus listening socket with
netcat -l
that would not respond to connection attempts byadd_data_node
. Without the fix, the command could not be canceled with CTRL-C. With the update code, this works as expected. Naturally, this is a test case that is difficult to test for in the regression tests.
