Simply bail will cause deserialization fail

@TennyZhuang do we need to report this when alter system?

kwannoel

Is it possible for a session variable to be entirely unconfigured?

Consider some session variable A.

User did not set A.
User did not set default for A system wide either.

Then I suppose it will fallback to the default we wrote for it in the code?
Is it possible for session variables to be None by default after this PR?

yuhao-su · 2024-04-03T03:47:30Z

Is it possible for a session variable to be entirely configured?

No. You can check the SessionConfig struct and there is no Option. In the case you mentioned, it will be set to the default value.

Can we first unify the terms? Or is there any difference between "session config" and "session param"?

I tried to use session config in frontend. But I guess it's ok to just use session params everywhere

But let me rename it in the next pr.

Hmmm, why renaming in next

You probably won't want to review 200 lines of rename in this pr...

+            pub fn list_all(&self) -> Vec<VariableInfo> {


The difference of these two methods is subtle. Is NO_SHOW_ALL essentially hidden? 😄

BTW, which set of parameters should be attributed with NO_SHOW_ALL and why do they need this? Is there any documentation from Postgres that we can refer to?

This looks bad. Should we adopt the notification/subscription mechanism just like the catalogs?

Maybe it is enough to only load the config when the frontend starts for now?
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/sql-altersystem.html

Values set with ALTER SYSTEM will be effective after the next server configuration reload, or after the next server restart in the case of parameters that can only be changed at server start. A server configuration reload can be commanded by calling the SQL function pg_reload_conf(), running pg_ctl reload, or sending a SIGHUP signal to the main server process.

The reload behavior of different config depends on its context value, according to https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/view-pg-settings.html. We may verify the behavior for calling ALTER SYSTEM on these session configs in Postgres and provide a precise definition then.

We have no plan to support config file for session parameters cc @fuyufjh

We have no plan to support config file for session parameters

Yes. Different from PG, RW is distributed, which naturally makes config file different from the system params. I'd like to consider them as non-overlapped sets (except state store's initial config, which is the only exception)

Please add some e2e tests to demonstrate the behavior.

fuyufjh

The approach in this PR is acceptable to me, but it seems far away from the thing you folks discussed before - that is, unifying the session params and global params.

The rest LGTM.

2 renames here 😄. How about just renaming the field to rw_implicit_flush

Rename this will cause too many unrelated changes to this pr. Maybe later.

This case is for testing the error ui for setting an invalid value to a session variable. If you find this not applicable to transaction_isolation, please replace it with another session variable instead of simply removing it.

This essentially introduces compatibility issue for session variables. Please document it somewhere and consider covering it with backwards-compat tests.

This will not have compatibility issue as long as the meta and front version are the same

You're right. JSON is only used as an intermediate representation.

However, we still persist the keys and values. Prior to this PR, we avoid breaking the session variables (like names or value types) only with best effort to provide SQL-level compatibility. After this PR, however, we must be more careful about that. 😕

I guess this is also true for many other things we persisted. For session params if we want to change the name, we can provide a persist key name.
