Build/Testing/Packaging Improvement

ClickHouse release v20.3.5.21, 2020-03-27

Bug Fix

  • Fix 'Different expressions with the same alias' error when query has PREWHERE and WHERE on distributed table and SET distributed_product_mode = 'local'. #9871 (Artem Zuikov).
  • Fix mutations excessive memory consumption for tables with a composite primary key. This fixes #9850. #9860 (alesapin).
  • For INSERT queries shard now clamps the settings got from the initiator to the shard's constaints instead of throwing an exception. This fix allows to send INSERT queries to a shard with another constraints. This change improves fix #9447. #9852 (Vitaly Baranov).
  • Fix 'COMMA to CROSS JOIN rewriter is not enabled or cannot rewrite query' error in case of subqueries with COMMA JOIN out of tables lists (i.e. in WHERE). Fixes #9782. #9830 (Artem Zuikov).
  • Fix possible exception Got 0 in totals chunk, expected 1 on client. It happened for queries with JOIN in case if right joined table had zero rows. Example: select * from system.one t1 join system.one t2 on t1.dummy = t2.dummy limit 0 FORMAT TabSeparated;. Fixes #9777. #9823 (Nikolai Kochetov).
  • Fix SIGSEGV with optimize_skip_unused_shards when type cannot be converted. #9804 (Azat Khuzhin).
  • Fix broken ALTER TABLE DELETE COLUMN query for compact parts. #9779 (alesapin).
  • Fix max_distributed_connections (w/ and w/o Processors). #9673 (Azat Khuzhin).
  • Fixed a few cases when timezone of the function argument wasn't used properly. #9574 (Vasily Nemkov).

Improvement

  • Remove order by stage from mutations because we read from a single ordered part in a single thread. Also add check that the order of rows in mutation is ordered in sorting key order and this order is not violated. #9886 (alesapin).

ClickHouse release v20.3.4.10, 2020-03-20

Bug Fix

  • This release also contains all bug fixes from 20.1.8.41
  • Fix missing rows_before_limit_at_least for queries over http (with processors pipeline). This fixes #9730. #9757 (Nikolai Kochetov)

ClickHouse release v20.3.3.6, 2020-03-17

Bug Fix

  • This release also contains all bug fixes from 20.1.7.38
  • Fix bug in a replication that doesn't allow replication to work if the user has executed mutations on the previous version. This fixes #9645. #9652 (alesapin). It makes version 20.3 backward compatible again.
  • Add setting use_compact_format_in_distributed_parts_names which allows to write files for INSERT queries into Distributed table with more compact format. This fixes #9647. #9653 (alesapin). It makes version 20.3 backward compatible again.

ClickHouse release v20.3.2.1, 2020-03-12

Backward Incompatible Change

  • Fixed the issue file name too long when sending data for Distributed tables for a large number of replicas. Fixed the issue that replica credentials were exposed in the server log. The format of directory name on disk was changed to [shard{shard_index}[_replica{replica_index}]]. #8911 (Mikhail Korotov) After you upgrade to the new version, you will not be able to downgrade without manual intervention, because old server version does not recognize the new directory format. If you want to downgrade, you have to manually rename the corresponding directories to the old format. This change is relevant only if you have used asynchronous INSERTs to Distributed tables. In the version 20.3.3 we will introduce a setting that will allow you to enable the new format gradually.
  • Changed the format of replication log entries for mutation commands. You have to wait for old mutations to process before installing the new version.
  • Implement simple memory profiler that dumps stacktraces to system.trace_log every N bytes over soft allocation limit #8765 (Ivan) #9472 (alexey-milovidov) The column of system.trace_log was renamed from timer_type to trace_type. This will require changes in third-party performance analysis and flamegraph processing tools.
  • Use OS thread id everywhere instead of internal thread number. This fixes #7477 Old clickhouse-client cannot receive logs that are send from the server when the setting send_logs_level is enabled, because the names and types of the structured log messages were changed. On the other hand, different server versions can send logs with different types to each other. When you don't use the send_logs_level setting, you should not care. #8954 (alexey-milovidov)
  • Remove indexHint function #9542 (alexey-milovidov)
  • Remove findClusterIndex, findClusterValue functions. This fixes #8641. If you were using these functions, send an email to [email protected] #9543 (alexey-milovidov)
  • Now it's not allowed to create columns or add columns with SELECT subquery as default expression. #9481 (alesapin)
  • Require aliases for subqueries in JOIN. #9274 (Artem Zuikov)
  • Improved ALTER MODIFY/ADD queries logic. Now you cannot ADD column without type, MODIFY default expression doesn't change type of column and MODIFY type doesn't loose default expression value. Fixes #8669. #9227 (alesapin)
  • Require server to be restarted to apply the changes in logging configuration. This is a temporary workaround to avoid the bug where the server logs to a deleted log file (see #8696). #8707 (Alexander Kuzmenkov)
  • The setting experimental_use_processors is enabled by default. This setting enables usage of the new query pipeline. This is internal refactoring and we expect no visible changes. If you will see any issues, set it to back zero. #8768 (alexey-milovidov)

New Feature

  • Add Avro and AvroConfluent input/output formats #8571 (Andrew Onyshchuk) #8957 (Andrew Onyshchuk) #8717 (alexey-milovidov)
  • Multi-threaded and non-blocking updates of expired keys in cache dictionaries (with optional permission to read old ones). #8303 (Nikita Mikhaylov)
  • Add query ALTER ... MATERIALIZE TTL. It runs mutation that forces to remove expired data by TTL and recalculates meta-information about TTL in all parts. #8775 (Anton Popov)
  • Switch from HashJoin to MergeJoin (on disk) if needed #9082 (Artem Zuikov)
  • Added MOVE PARTITION command for ALTER TABLE #4729 #6168 (Guillaume Tassery)
  • Reloading storage configuration from configuration file on the fly. #8594 (Vladimir Chebotarev)
  • Allowed to change storage_policy to not less rich one. #8107 (Vladimir Chebotarev)
  • Added support for globs/wildcards for S3 storage and table function. #8851 (Vladimir Chebotarev)
  • Implement bitAnd, bitOr, bitXor, bitNot for FixedString(N) datatype. #9091 (Guillaume Tassery)
  • Added function bitCount. This fixes #8702. #8708 (alexey-milovidov) #8749 (ikopylov)
  • Add generateRandom table function to generate random rows with given schema. Allows to populate arbitrary test table with data. #8994 (Ilya Yatsishin)
  • JSONEachRowFormat: support special case when objects enclosed in top-level array. #8860 (Kruglov Pavel)
  • Now it's possible to create a column with DEFAULT expression which depends on a column with default ALIAS expression. #9489 (alesapin)
  • Allow to specify --limit more than the source data size in clickhouse-obfuscator. The data will repeat itself with different random seed. #9155 (alexey-milovidov)
  • Added groupArraySample function (similar to groupArray) with reservior sampling algorithm. #8286 (Amos Bird)
  • Now you can monitor the size of update queue in cache/complex_key_cache dictionaries via system metrics. #9413 (Nikita Mikhaylov)
  • Allow to use CRLF as a line separator in CSV output format with setting output_format_csv_crlf_end_of_line is set to 1 #8934 #8935 #8963 (Mikhail Korotov)
  • Implement more functions of the H3 API: h3GetBaseCell, h3HexAreaM2, h3IndexesAreNeighbors, h3ToChildren, h3ToString and stringToH3 #8938 (Nico Mandery)
  • New setting introduced: max_parser_depth to control maximum stack size and allow large complex queries. This fixes #6681 and #7668. #8647 (Maxim Smirnov)
  • Add a setting force_optimize_skip_unused_shards setting to throw if skipping of unused shards is not possible #8805 (Azat Khuzhin)
  • Allow to configure multiple disks/volumes for storing data for send in Distributed engine #8756 (Azat Khuzhin)
  • Support storage policy (<tmp_policy>) for storing temporary data. #8750 (Azat Khuzhin)
  • Added X-ClickHouse-Exception-Code HTTP header that is set if exception was thrown before sending data. This implements #4971. #8786 (Mikhail Korotov)
  • Added function ifNotFinite. It is just a syntactic sugar: ifNotFinite(x, y) = isFinite(x) ? x : y. #8710 (alexey-milovidov)
  • Added last_successful_update_time column in system.dictionaries table #9394 (Nikita Mikhaylov)
  • Add blockSerializedSize function (size on disk without compression) #8952 (Azat Khuzhin)
  • Add function moduloOrZero #9358 (hcz)
  • Added system tables system.zeros and system.zeros_mt as well as tale functions zeros() and zeros_mt(). Tables (and table functions) contain single column with name zero and type UInt8. This column contains zeros. It is needed for test purposes as the fastest method to generate many rows. This fixes #6604 #9593 (Nikolai Kochetov)

Experimental Feature

  • Add new compact format of parts in MergeTree-family tables in which all columns are stored in one file. It helps to increase performance of small and frequent inserts. The old format (one file per column) is now called wide. Data storing format is controlled by settings min_bytes_for_wide_part and min_rows_for_wide_part. #8290 (Anton Popov)
  • Support for S3 storage for Log, TinyLog and StripeLog tables. #8862 (Pavel Kovalenko)

Bug Fix

  • Fixed inconsistent whitespaces in log messages. #9322 (alexey-milovidov)
  • Fix bug in which arrays of unnamed tuples were flattened as Nested structures on table creation. #8866 (achulkov2)
  • Fixed the issue when "Too many open files" error may happen if there are too many files matching glob pattern in File table or file table function. Now files are opened lazily. This fixes #8857 #8861 (alexey-milovidov)
  • DROP TEMPORARY TABLE now drops only temporary table. #8907 (Vitaly Baranov)
  • Remove outdated partition when we shutdown the server or DETACH/ATTACH a table. #8602 (Guillaume Tassery)
  • For how the default disk calculates the free space from data subdirectory. Fixed the issue when the amount of free space is not calculated correctly if the data directory is mounted to a separate device (rare case). This fixes #7441 #9257 (Mikhail Korotov)
  • Allow comma (cross) join with IN () inside. #9251 (Artem Zuikov)
  • Allow to rewrite CROSS to INNER JOIN if there's [NOT] LIKE operator in WHERE section. #9229 (Artem Zuikov)
  • Fix possible incorrect result after GROUP BY with enabled setting distributed_aggregation_memory_efficient. Fixes #9134. #9289 (Nikolai Kochetov)
  • Found keys were counted as missed in metrics of cache dictionaries. #9411 (Nikita Mikhaylov)
  • Fix replication protocol incompatibility introduced in #8598. #9412 (alesapin)
  • Fixed race condition on queue_task_handle at the startup of ReplicatedMergeTree tables. #9552 (alexey-milovidov)
  • The token NOT didn't work in SHOW TABLES NOT LIKE query #8727 #8940 (alexey-milovidov)
  • Added range check to function h3EdgeLengthM. Without this check, buffer overflow is possible. #8945 (alexey-milovidov)
  • Fixed up a bug in batched calculations of ternary logical OPs on multiple arguments (more than 10). #8718 (Alexander Kazakov)
  • Fix error of PREWHERE optimization, which could lead to segfaults or Inconsistent number of columns got from MergeTreeRangeReader exception. #9024 (Anton Popov)
  • Fix unexpected Timeout exceeded while reading from socket exception, which randomly happens on secure connection before timeout actually exceeded and when query profiler is enabled. Also add connect_timeout_with_failover_secure_ms settings (default 100ms), which is similar to connect_timeout_with_failover_ms, but is used for secure connections (because SSL handshake is slower, than ordinary TCP connection) #9026 (tavplubix)
  • Fix bug with mutations finalization, when mutation may hang in state with parts_to_do=0 and is_done=0. #9022 (alesapin)
  • Use new ANY JOIN logic with partial_merge_join setting. It's possible to make ANY|ALL|SEMI LEFT and ALL INNER joins with partial_merge_join=1 now. #8932 (Artem Zuikov)
  • Shard now clamps the settings got from the initiator to the shard's constaints instead of throwing an exception. This fix allows to send queries to a shard with another constraints. #9447 (Vitaly Baranov)
  • Fixed memory management problem in MergeTreeReadPool. #8791 (Vladimir Chebotarev)
  • Fix toDecimal*OrNull() functions family when called with string e. Fixes #8312 #8764 (Artem Zuikov)
  • Make sure that FORMAT Null sends no data to the client. #8767 (Alexander Kuzmenkov)

  • Fixed ALTER MODIFY TTL wrong behavior which did not allow to delete old TTL expressions. #8422 (Vladimir Chebotarev)
  • Fixed UBSan report in MergeTreeIndexSet. This fixes #9250 #9365 (alexey-milovidov)

  • Fix alters if there is TTL set for table. #8800 (Anton Popov)
  • Fix race condition that can happen when SYSTEM RELOAD ALL DICTIONARIES is executed while some dictionary is being modified/added/removed. #8801 (Vitaly Baranov)
  • In previous versions Memory database engine use empty data path, so tables are created in path directory (e.g. /var/lib/clickhouse/), not in data directory of database (e.g. /var/lib/clickhouse/db_name). #8753 (tavplubix)
  • Fixed wrong log messages about missing default disk or policy. #9530 (Vladimir Chebotarev)
  • Fix not(has()) for the bloom_filter index of array types. #9407 (achimbab)
  • Allow first column(s) in a table with Log engine be an alias #9231 (Ivan)

  • Fix data race on exception_ptr in cache dictionary #8303. #9379 (Nikita Mikhaylov)
  • Do not throw an exception for query ATTACH TABLE IF NOT EXISTS. Previously it was thrown if table already exists, despite the IF NOT EXISTS clause. #8967 (Anton Popov)
  • Fixed missing closing paren in exception message. #8811 (alexey-milovidov)
  • Avoid message Possible deadlock avoided at the startup of clickhouse-client in interactive mode. #9455 (alexey-milovidov)

  • When the setting compile_expressions is enabled, you can get unexpected column in LLVMExecutableFunction when we use Nullable type #8910 (Guillaume Tassery)
  • Multiple fixes for Kafka engine: 1) fix duplicates that were appearing during consumer group rebalance. 2) Fix rare 'holes' appeared when data were polled from several partitions with one poll and committed partially (now we always process / commit the whole polled block of messages). 3) Fix flushes by block size (before that only flushing by timeout was working properly). 4) better subscription procedure (with assignment feedback). 5) Make tests work faster (with default intervals and timeouts). Due to the fact that data was not flushed by block size before (as it should according to documentation), that PR may lead to some performance degradation with default settings (due to more often & tinier flushes which are less optimal). If you encounter the performance issue after that change - please increase kafka_max_block_size in the table to the bigger value ( for example CREATE TABLE ...Engine=Kafka ... SETTINGS ... kafka_max_block_size=524288). Fixes #7259 #8917 (filimonov)
  • Fix Parameter out of bound exception in some queries after PREWHERE optimizations. #8914 (Baudouin Giard)
  • Fixed the case of mixed-constness of arguments of function arrayZip. #8705 (alexey-milovidov)

  • Now it's not possible to create or add columns with simple cyclic aliases like a DEFAULT b, b DEFAULT a. #9603 (alesapin)
  • Fixed a bug with double move which may corrupt original part. This is relevant if you use ALTER TABLE MOVE #8680 (Vladimir Chebotarev)
  • Allow interval identifier to correctly parse without backticks. Fixed issue when a query cannot be executed even if the interval identifier is enclosed in backticks or double quotes. This fixes #9124. #9142 (alexey-milovidov)
  • Fixed fuzz test and incorrect behaviour of bitTestAll/bitTestAny functions. #9143 (alexey-milovidov)
  • Fix possible crash/wrong number of rows in LIMIT n WITH TIES when there are a lot of rows equal to n'th row. #9464 (tavplubix)
  • Fix mutations with parts written with enabled insert_quorum. #9463 (alesapin)
  • Fix data race at destruction of Poco::HTTPServer. It could happen when server is started and immediately shut down. #9468 (Anton Popov)
  • Fix bug in which a misleading error message was shown when running SHOW CREATE TABLE a_table_that_does_not_exist. #8899 (achulkov2)
  • Fixed Parameters are out of bound exception in some rare cases when we have a constant in the SELECT clause when we have an ORDER BY and a LIMIT clause. #8892 (Guillaume Tassery)
  • Fix mutations finalization, when already done mutation can have status is_done=0. #9217 (alesapin)
  • Prevent from executing ALTER ADD INDEX for MergeTree tables with old syntax, because it doesn't work. #8822 (Mikhail Korotov)
  • During server startup do not access table, which LIVE VIEW depends on, so server will be able to start. Also remove LIVE VIEW dependencies when detaching LIVE VIEW. LIVE VIEW is an experimental feature. #8824 (tavplubix)
  • Fix possible segfault in MergeTreeRangeReader, while executing PREWHERE. #9106 (Anton Popov)
  • Fix possible mismatched checksums with column TTLs. #9451 (Anton Popov)
  • Fixed a bug when parts were not being moved in background by TTL rules in case when there is only one volume. #8672 (Vladimir Chebotarev)
  • Fixed the issue Method createColumn() is not implemented for data type Set. This fixes #7799. #8674 (alexey-milovidov)
  • Now we will try finalize mutations more frequently. #9427 (alesapin)
  • Fix intDiv by minus one constant #9351 (hcz)
  • Fix possible race condition in BlockIO. #9356 (Nikolai Kochetov)
  • Fix bug leading to server termination when trying to use / drop Kafka table created with wrong parameters. #9513 (filimonov)
  • Added workaround if OS returns wrong result for timer_create function. #8837 (alexey-milovidov)
  • Fixed error in usage of min_marks_for_seek parameter. Fixed the error message when there is no sharding key in Distributed table and we try to skip unused shards. #8908 (Azat Khuzhin)

Improvement

  • Implement ALTER MODIFY/DROP queries on top of mutations for ReplicatedMergeTree* engines family. Now ALTERS blocks only at the metadata update stage, and don't block after that. #8701 (alesapin)

  • Make SHOW TABLES and SHOW DATABASES queries support the WHERE expressions and FROM/IN #9076 (sundyli)
  • Added a setting deduplicate_blocks_in_dependent_materialized_views. #9070 (urykhy)
  • After recent changes MySQL client started to print binary strings in hex thereby making them not readable (#9032). The workaround in ClickHouse is to mark string columns as UTF-8, which is not always, but usually the case. #9079 (Yuriy Baranov)
  • Add support of String and FixedString keys for sumMap #8903 (Baudouin Giard)
  • Support string keys in SummingMergeTree maps #8933 (Baudouin Giard)
  • Signal termination of thread to the thread pool even if the thread has thrown exception #8736 (Ding Xiang Fei)
  • Allow to set query_id in clickhouse-benchmark #9416 (Anton Popov)
  • Don't allow strange expressions in ALTER TABLE ... PARTITION partition query. This addresses #7192 #8835 (alexey-milovidov)
  • The table system.table_engines now provides information about feature support (like supports_ttl or supports_sort_order). #8830 (Max Akhmedov)
  • Enable system.metric_log by default. It will contain rows with values of ProfileEvents, CurrentMetrics collected with "collect_interval_milliseconds" interval (one second by default).

ClickHouse release v20.1.2.4, 2020-01-22

Backward Incompatible Change

  • Make the setting merge_tree_uniform_read_distribution obsolete. The server still recognizes this setting but it has no effect. #8308 (alexey-milovidov)
  • Changed return type of the function greatCircleDistance to Float32 because now the result of calculation is Float32. #7993 (alexey-milovidov)
  • Now it's expected that query parameters are represented in "escaped" format. For example, to pass string a<tab>b you have to write a\tb or a\<tab>b and respectively, a%5Ctb or a%5C%09b in URL. This is needed to add the possibility to pass NULL as \N. This fixes #7488. #8517 (alexey-milovidov)
  • Enable use_minimalistic_part_header_in_zookeeper setting for ReplicatedMergeTree by default. This will significantly reduce amount of data stored in ZooKeeper. This setting is supported since version 19.1 and we already use it in production in multiple services without any issues for more than half a year. Disable this setting if you have a chance to downgrade to versions older than 19.1. #6850 (alexey-milovidov)
  • Data skipping indices are production ready and enabled by default. The settings allow_experimental_data_skipping_indices, allow_experimental_cross_to_join_conversion and allow_experimental_multiple_joins_emulation are now obsolete and do nothing. #7974 (alexey-milovidov)
  • Add new ANY JOIN logic for StorageJoin consistent with JOIN operation. To upgrade without changes in behaviour you need add SETTINGS any_join_distinct_right_table_keys = 1 to Engine Join tables metadata or recreate these tables after upgrade. #8400 (Artem Zuikov)
  • Require server to be restarted to apply the changes in logging configuration. This is a temporary workaround to avoid the bug where the server logs to a deleted log file (see #8696). #8707 (Alexander Kuzmenkov)

  • Improvements in consistency of ANY JOIN logic. Now t1 ANY LEFT JOIN t2 equals t2 ANY RIGHT JOIN t1. #7665 (Artem Zuikov)
  • Add setting any_join_distinct_right_table_keys which enables old behaviour for ANY INNER JOIN. #7665 (Artem Zuikov)
  • Add new SEMI and ANTI JOIN. Old ANY INNER JOIN behaviour now available as SEMI LEFT JOIN. #7665 (Artem Zuikov)
  • Added Distributed format for File engine and file table function which allows to read from .bin files generated by asynchronous inserts into Distributed table. #8535 (Nikolai Kochetov)

  • Added function JSONExtractArrayRaw which returns an array on unparsed json array elements from JSON string. #8081 (Oleg Matrokhin)
  • Add arrayZip function which allows to combine multiple arrays of equal lengths into one array of tuples. #8149 (Winter Zhang)
  • Add ability to move data between disks according to configured TTL-expressions for *MergeTree table engines family. #8140 (Vladimir Chebotarev)
  • Added new aggregate function avgWeighted which allows to calculate weighted average. #7898 (Andrey Bodrov)
  • Now parallel parsing is enabled by default for TSV, TSKV, CSV and JSONEachRow formats. #7894 (Nikita Mikhaylov)
  • Add several geo functions from H3 library: h3GetResolution, h3EdgeAngle, h3EdgeLength, h3IsValid and h3kRing. #8034 (Konstantin Malanchev)
  • Added support for brotli (br) compression in file-related storages and table functions. This fixes #8156. #8526 (alexey-milovidov)
  • Add groupBit* functions for the SimpleAggregationFunction type. #8485 (Guillaume Tassery)
