Fixed backward incompatibility in (de)serialization of states of min, max, any*, argMin, argMax aggregate functions with String argument. The incompatibility affects 22.9, 22.10 and 22.11 branches (fixed since 22.9.6, 22.10.4 and 22.11.2 correspondingly). Some minor releases of 22.3, 22.7 and 22.8 branches are also affected: 22.3.13...22.3.14 (fixed since 22.3.15), 22.8.6...22.8.9 (fixed since 22.8.10), 22.7.6 and newer (will not be fixed in 22.7, we recommend upgrading from 22.7.* to 22.8.10 or newer). This release note does not concern users that have never used affected versions. Incompatible versions append an extra '\0' to strings when reading states of the aggregate functions mentioned above. For example, if an older version saved state of anyState('foobar') to state_column then the incompatible version will print 'foobar\0' on anyMerge(state_column). Also incompatible versions write states of the aggregate functions without trailing '\0'. Newer versions (that have the fix) can correctly read data written by all versions including incompatible versions, except one corner case. If an incompatible version saved a state with a string that actually ends with null character, then newer version will trim trailing '\0' when reading state of affected aggregate function. For example, if an incompatible version saved state of anyState('abrac\0dabra\0') to state_column then newer versions will print 'abrac\0dabra' on anyMerge(state_column). The issue also affects distributed queries when an incompatible version works in a cluster together with older or newer versions. #43038 (Alexander Tokmakov, Raúl Marín). Note: all the official ClickHouse builds already include the patches. This is not necessarily true for unofficial third-party builds that should be avoided.
Add BSONEachRow input/output format. In this format, ClickHouse formats/parses each row as a separate BSON document and each column is formatted/parsed as a single BSON field with the column name as the key. #42033 (mark-polokhov).
Add grace_hash JOIN algorithm, it can be enabled with SET join_algorithm = 'grace_hash'. #38191 (BigRedEye, Vladimir C).
Allow configuring password complexity rules and checks for creating and changing users. #43719 (Nikolay Degterinsky).
Mask sensitive information in logs; mask secret parts in the output of queries SHOW CREATE TABLE and SELECT FROM system.tables. Also resolves #41418. #43227 (Vitaly Baranov).
Added function concatWithSeparator and concat_ws as an alias for Spark SQL compatibility. A function concatWithSeparatorAssumeInjective added as a variant to enable GROUP BY optimization, similarly to concatAssumeInjective. #43749 (李扬).
Added multiplyDecimal and divideDecimal functions for decimal operations with fixed precision. #42438 (Andrey Zvonov).
Added system.moves table with list of currently moving parts. #42660 (Sergei Trifonov).
Add support for embedded Prometheus endpoint for ClickHouse Keeper. #43087 (Antonio Andelic).
Support numeric literals with _ as the separator, for example, 1_000_000. #43925 (jh0x).
Added possibility to use an array as a second parameter for cutURLParameter function. It will cut multiple parameters. Close #6827. #43788 (Roman Vasin).
Add a column with the expression of the index in the system.data_skipping_indices table. #43308 (Guillaume Tassery).
Add column engine_full to system table databases so that users can access the entire engine definition of a database via system tables. #43468 (凌涛).
New hash function xxh3 added. Also, the performance of xxHash32 and xxHash64 are improved on ARM thanks to a library update. #43411 (Nikita Taranov).
Added support to define constraints for merge tree settings. For example you can forbid overriding the storage_policy by users. #43903 (Sergei Trifonov).
Add a new setting input_format_json_read_objects_as_strings that allows the parsing of nested JSON objects into Strings in all JSON input formats. This setting is disabled by default. #44052 (Kruglov Pavel).
Support deduplication for asynchronous inserts. Before this change, async inserts did not support deduplication, because multiple small inserts coexisted in one inserted batch. Closes #38075. #43304 (Han Fei).
Add support for cosine distance for the experimental Annoy (vector similarity search) index. #42778 (Filatenkov Artur).
Add CREATE / ALTER / DROP NAMED COLLECTION queries. #43252 (Kseniia Sumarokova). This feature is under development and the queries are not effective as of version 22.12. This changelog entry is added only to avoid confusion. Restrict default access to named collections to the user defined in config. This requires that show_named_collections = 1 is set to be able to see them. #43325 (Kseniia Sumarokova). The system.named_collections table is introduced #43147 (Kseniia Sumarokova).
Add settings max_streams_for_merge_tree_reading and allow_asynchronous_read_from_io_pool_for_merge_tree. Setting max_streams_for_merge_tree_reading limits the number of reading streams for MergeTree tables. Setting allow_asynchronous_read_from_io_pool_for_merge_tree enables a background I/O pool to read from MergeTree tables. This may increase performance for I/O bound queries if used together with max_streams_to_max_threads_ratio or max_streams_for_merge_tree_reading. #43260 (Nikolai Kochetov). This improves performance up to 100 times in case of high latency storage, low number of CPU and high number of data parts.
Settings merge_tree_min_rows_for_concurrent_read_for_remote_filesystem/merge_tree_min_bytes_for_concurrent_read_for_remote_filesystem did not respect adaptive granularity. Fat rows did not decrease the number of read rows (as it was done for merge_tree_min_rows_for_concurrent_read/merge_tree_min_bytes_for_concurrent_read, which could lead to high memory usage when using remote filesystems. #43965 (Nikolai Kochetov).
Optimized the number of list requests to ZooKeeper or ClickHouse Keeper when selecting a part to merge. Previously it could produce thousands of requests in some cases. Fixes #43647. #43675 (Alexander Tokmakov).
Optimization is getting skipped now if max_size_to_preallocate_for_aggregation has too small a value. The default value of this setting increased to 10^8. #43945 (Nikita Taranov).
Merging on initiator now uses the same memory bound approach as merging of local aggregation results if enable_memory_bound_merging_of_aggregation_results is set. #40879 (Nikita Taranov).
Keeper improvement: try syncing logs to disk in parallel with replication. #43450 (Antonio Andelic).
Keeper improvement: requests are batched more often. The batching can be controlled with the new setting max_requests_quick_batch_size. #43686 (Antonio Andelic).
Implement referential dependencies and use them to create tables in the correct order while restoring from a backup. #43834 (Vitaly Baranov).
Substitute UDFs in CREATE query to avoid failures during loading at startup. Additionally, UDFs can now be used as DEFAULT expressions for columns. #43539 (Antonio Andelic).
Change how the following queries delete parts: TRUNCATE TABLE, ALTER TABLE DROP PART, ALTER TABLE DROP PARTITION. Now, these queries make empty parts which cover the old parts. This makes the TRUNCATE query work without a followedexclusive lock which means concurrent reads aren't locked. Also achieved durability in all those queries. If the request succeeds, then no resurrected parts appear later. Note that atomicity is achieved only with transaction scope. #41145 (Sema Checherinda).
SET param_x query no longer requires manual string serialization for the value of the parameter. For example, query SET param_a = '[\'a\', \'b\']' can now be written like SET param_a = ['a', 'b']. #41874 (Nikolay Degterinsky).
Show read rows in the progress indication while reading from STDIN from client. Closes #43423. #43442 (Kseniia Sumarokova).
filesystemAvailable and related functions support one optional argument with disk name, and change filesystemFree to filesystemUnreserved. Closes #35076. #42064 (flynn).
Integration with LDAP: increased the default value of search_limit to 256, and added LDAP server config option to change that to an arbitrary value. Closes: #42276. #42461 (Vasily Nemkov).
Allow the removal of sensitive information (see the query_masking_rules in the configuration file) from the exception messages as well. Resolves #41418. #42940 (filimonov).
Support queries like SHOW FULL TABLES ... for MySQL compatibility. #43910 (Filatenkov Artur).
Keeper improvement: Add 4lw command rqld which can manually assign a node as leader. #43026 (JackyWoo).
Apply connection timeout settings for Distributed async INSERT from the query. #43156 (Azat Khuzhin).
The unhex function now supports FixedString arguments. issue42369. #43207 (DR).
Priority is given to deleting completely expired parts according to the TTL rules, see #42869. #43222 (zhongyuankai).
More precise and reactive CPU load indication in clickhouse-client. #43307 (Sergei Trifonov).
Support reading of subcolumns of nested types from storage S3 and table function s3 with formats Parquet, Arrow and ORC. #43329 (chen).
Added client option to display the number of locally processed rows in non-interactive mode (--print-num-processed-rows). #43407 (jh0x).
Implement aggregation-in-order optimization on top of a query plan. It is enabled by default (but works only together with optimize_aggregation_in_order, which is disabled by default). Set query_plan_aggregation_in_order = 0 to use the previous AST-based version. #43592 (Nikolai Kochetov).
Allow to collect profile events with trace_type = 'ProfileEvent' to system.trace_log on each increment with current stack, profile event name and value of the increment. It can be enabled by the setting trace_profile_events and used to investigate performance of queries. #43639 (Anton Popov).
Add a new setting input_format_max_binary_string_size to limit string size in RowBinary format. #43842 (Kruglov Pavel).
When ClickHouse requests a remote HTTP server, and it returns an error, the numeric HTTP code was not displayed correctly in the exception message. Closes #43919. #43920 (Alexey Milovidov).
Correctly report errors in queries even when multiple JOINs optimization is taking place. #43583 (Salvatore).
Systemd integration now correctly notifies systemd that the service is really started and is ready to serve requests. #43400 (Коренберг Марк).
Added the option to build ClickHouse with OpenSSL using the OpenSSL FIPS Module. This build type has not been tested to validate security and is not supported. #43991 (Boris Kuschel).
Upgrade to the new DeflateQpl compression codec which has been implemented in a previous PR (details: https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/39494). This patch improves codec on below aspects: 1. QPL v0.2.0 to QPL v0.3.0 Intel® Query Processing Library (QPL) 2. Improve CMake file for fixing QPL build issues for QPL v0.3.0. 3. Link the QPL library with libaccel-config at build time instead of runtime loading on QPL v0.2.0 (dlopen) 4. Fixed log print issue in CompressionCodecDeflateQpl.cpp. #44024 (jasperzhu).

Do not suppress exceptions in web disks. Fix retries for the web disk. #42800 (Azat Khuzhin).
Fixed (logical) race condition between inserts and dropping materialized views. A race condition happened when a Materialized View was dropped at the same time as an INSERT, where the MVs were present as a dependency of the insert at the begining of the execution, but the table has been dropped by the time the insert chain tries to access it, producing either an UNKNOWN_TABLE or TABLE_IS_DROPPED exception, and stopping the insertion. After this change, we avoid these exceptions and just continue with the insert if the dependency is gone. #43161 (AlfVII).
Fix undefined behavior in the quantiles function, which might lead to uninitialized memory. Found by fuzzer. This closes #44066. #44067 (Alexey Milovidov).

During the recovery of a lost replica of a Replicated database (experimental feature), there could a situation where we need to atomically swap two table names (use EXCHANGE). Previously we tried to use two RENAME queries, which was obviously failing and moreover, failed the whole recovery process of the database replica. #43628 (Nikita Mikhaylov).
Fix the case when the s3Cluster function throws NOT_FOUND_COLUMN_IN_BLOCK error. Closes #43534. #43629 (chen).
Fix possible logical error Array sizes mismatched while parsing JSON object with arrays with same key names but with different nesting level. Closes #43569. #43693 (Kruglov Pavel).

Keeper fix: throw if the interserver port for Raft is already in use. #43984 (Antonio Andelic).
Fix ORDER BY positional argument (example: ORDER BY 1, 2) in case of unneeded columns pruning from subqueries. Closes #43964. #43987 (Kseniia Sumarokova).
Fixed exception when a subquery contains HAVING but doesn't contain an actual aggregation. #44051 (Nikita Taranov).
Fix race in s3 multipart upload. This race could cause the error Part number must be an integer between 1 and 10000, inclusive. (S3_ERROR) while restoring from a backup. #44065 (Vitaly Baranov).
Adds support for retries during INSERTs into ReplicatedMergeTree when a session with ClickHouse Keeper is lost. Apart from fault tolerance, it aims to provide better user experience, - avoid returning a user an error during insert if keeper is restarted (for example, due to upgrade). #42607 (Igor Nikonov).
Add table function hudi and deltaLake. #43080 (flynn).
Support for composite time intervals. 1. Add, subtract and negate operations are now available on Intervals. In the case where the types of Intervals are different, they will be transformed into the Tuple of those types. 2. A tuple of intervals can be added to or subtracted from a Date/DateTime field. 3. Added parsing of Intervals with different types, for example: INTERVAL '1 HOUR 1 MINUTE 1 SECOND'. #42195 (Nikolay Degterinsky).

Introduce s3_plain disk type for write-once-read-many operations. Implement ATTACH of MergeTree table for s3_plain disk. #42628 (Azat Khuzhin).
Add four-letter command csnp for manually creating snapshots in ClickHouse Keeper. Additionally, lgif was added to get Raft information for a specific node (e.g. index of last created snapshot, last committed log index). #41766 (JackyWoo).
Add function randCanonical, which is similar to the rand function in Apache Spark or Impala. The function generates pseudo random results with independent and identically distributed uniformly distributed values in [0, 1). #43124 (李扬).
match function can use the index if it's a condition on string prefix. This closes #37333. #42458 (clarkcaoliu).

The system.asynchronous_metrics gets embedded documentation. This documentation is also exported to Prometheus. Fixed an error with the metrics about cache disks - they were calculated only for one arbitrary cache disk instead all of them. This closes #7644. #43194 (Alexey Milovidov).
Mask passwords and secret keys both in system.query_log and /var/log/clickhouse-server/*.log and also in error messages. #42484 (Vitaly Baranov).
Remove covered parts for fetched part (to avoid possible replication delay grows). #39737 (Azat Khuzhin).
If /dev/tty is available, the progress in clickhouse-client and clickhouse-local will be rendered directly to the terminal, without writing to STDERR. It allows getting progress even if STDERR is redirected to a file, and the file will not be polluted by terminal escape sequences. The progress can be disabled by --progress false. This closes #32238. #42003 (Alexey Milovidov).
Add support for FixedString input to base64 coding functions. #42285 (ltrk2).
Add columns bytes_on_disk and path to system.detached_parts. Closes #42264. #42303 (chen).

Increase the size of upload part exponentially for backup to S3 to avoid errors about max 10 000 parts limit of the multipart upload to s3. #42833 (Vitaly Baranov).
When the merge task is continuously busy and the disk space is insufficient, the completely expired parts cannot be selected and dropped, resulting in insufficient disk space. My idea is that when the entire Part expires, there is no need for additional disk space to guarantee, ensure the normal execution of TTL. #42869 (zhongyuankai).
Add oss function and OSS table engine (this is convenient for users). oss is fully compatible with s3. #43155 (zzsmdfj).
Improve error reporting in the collection of OS-related info for the system.asynchronous_metrics table. #43192 (Alexey Milovidov).

Before the fix, the user-defined config was preserved by RPM in $file.rpmsave. The PR fixes it and won't replace the user's files from packages. #42936 (Mikhail f. Shiryaev).
Bug Fix (user-visible misbehavior in official stable or prestable release)
Updated normaliser to clone the alias ast. Resolves #42452 Implementation: Updated QueryNormalizer to clone alias ast, when its replaced. Previously just assigning the same leads to exception in LogicalExpressinsOptimizer as it would be the same parent being inserted again. This bug is not seen with new analyser (allow_experimental_analyzer), so no changes for it. I added a test for the same. #42827 (SmitaRKulkarni).

The function javaHash has been extended to integers. #41131 (JackyWoo).
Add OpenTelemetry support to ON CLUSTER DDL (require distributed_ddl_entry_format_version to be set to 4). #41484 (Frank Chen).
Added system table asynchronous_insert_log. It contains information about asynchronous inserts (including results of queries in fire-and-forget mode (with wait_for_async_insert=0)) for better introspection. #42040 (Anton Popov).
Add support for methods lz4, bz2, snappy in HTTP's Accept-Encoding which is a non-standard extension to HTTP protocol. #42071 (Nikolay Degterinsky).
Relax the "Too many parts" threshold. This closes #6551. Now ClickHouse will allow more parts in a partition if the average part size is large enough (at least 10 GiB). This allows to have up to petabytes of data in a single partition of a single table on a single server, which is possible using disk shelves or object storage. #42002 (Alexey Milovidov).
Implement operator precedence element parser to make the required stack size smaller. #34892 (Nikolay Degterinsky).
DISTINCT in order optimization leverage sorting properties of data streams. This improvement will enable reading in order for DISTINCT if applicable (before it was necessary to provide ORDER BY for columns in DISTINCT). #41014 (Igor Nikonov).
ColumnVector: optimize UInt8 index with AVX512VBMI. #41247 (Guo Wangyang).
Optimize the lock contentions for ThreadGroupStatus::mutex. The performance experiments of SSB (Star Schema Benchmark) on the ICX device (Intel Xeon Platinum 8380 CPU, 80 cores, 160 threads) shows that this change could bring a 2.95x improvement of the geomean of all subcases' QPS. #41675 (Zhiguo Zhou).

Embedded Keeper will always start in the background allowing ClickHouse to start without achieving quorum. #40991 (Antonio Andelic).
Made reestablishing a new connection to ZooKeeper more reactive in case of expiration of the previous one. Previously there was a task which spawns every minute by default and thus a table could be in readonly state for about this time. #41092 (Nikita Mikhaylov).
Now projections can be used with zero copy replication (zero-copy replication is a non-production feature). #41147 (alesapin).
Support expression (EXPLAIN SELECT ...) in a subquery. Queries like SELECT * FROM (EXPLAIN PIPELINE SELECT col FROM TABLE ORDER BY col) became valid. #40630 (Vladimir C).
Allow changing async_insert_max_data_size or async_insert_busy_timeout_ms in scope of query. E.g. user wants to insert data rarely and she doesn't have access to the server config to tune default settings. #40668 (Nikita Mikhaylov).
Improvements for reading from remote filesystems, made threadpool size for reads/writes configurable. Closes #41070. #41011 (Kseniia Sumarokova).
Support all combinators combination in WindowTransform/arratReduce*/initializeAggregation/aggregate functions versioning. Previously combinators like ForEach/Resample/Map didn't work in these places, using them led to exception likeState function ... inserts results into non-state column. #41107 (Kruglov Pavel).
Add function tryDecrypt that returns NULL when decrypt fails (e.g. decrypt with incorrect key) instead of throwing an exception. #41206 (Duc Canh Le).
Add the unreserved_space column to the system.disks table to check how much space is not taken by reservations per disk. #41254 (filimonov).
Add support for MultiRead in Keeper and internal ZooKeeper client (this is an extension to ZooKeeper protocol, only available in ClickHouse Keeper). #41410 (Antonio Andelic).
Add support for decimal type comparing with floating point literal in IN operator. #41544 (liang.huang).
ClickHouse could cache stale DNS entries for some period of time (15 seconds by default) until the cache won't be updated asynchronously. During these periods ClickHouse can nevertheless try to establish a connection and produce errors. This behavior is fixed. #41707 (Nikita Mikhaylov).
Add interactive history search with fzf-like utility (fzf/sk) for clickhouse-client/clickhouse-local (note you can use FZF_DEFAULT_OPTS/SKIM_DEFAULT_OPTIONS to additionally configure the behavior). #41730 (Azat Khuzhin).
Only allow clients connecting to a secure server with an invalid certificate only to proceed with the '--accept-certificate' flag. #41743 (Yakov Olkhovskiy).

Remove confusing warning when inserting with perform_ttl_move_on_insert = false. #41980 (Vitaly Baranov).
Allow user to write countState(*) similar to count(*). This closes #9338. #41983 (Amos Bird).
parseDataTimeBestEffort now supports comma between date and time. Closes #42038. #42049 (flynn).
Improved stale replica recovery process for ReplicatedMergeTree. If a lost replica has some parts which are absent from a healthy replica, but these parts should appear in the future according to the replication queue of the healthy replica, then the lost replica will keep such parts instead of detaching them. #42134 (Alexander Tokmakov).
Add a possibility to use Date32 arguments for date_diff function. Fix issue in date_diff function when using DateTime64 arguments with a start date before Unix epoch and end date after Unix epoch. #42308 (Roman Vasin).
When uploading big parts to Minio, 'Complete Multipart Upload' can take a long time. Minio sends heartbeats every 10 seconds (see https://github.com/minio/minio/pull/7198). But clickhouse times out earlier, because the default send/receive timeout is set to 5 seconds. #42321 (filimonov).
Fix rarely invalid cast of aggregate state types with complex types such as Decimal. This fixes #42408. #42417 (Amos Bird).
Allow to use Date32 arguments for dateName function. #42554 (Roman Vasin).
Now filters with NULL literals will be used during index analysis. #34063. #41842 (Amos Bird).
Merge parts if every part in the range is older than a certain threshold. The threshold can be set by using min_age_to_force_merge_seconds. This closes #35836. #42423 (Antonio Andelic). This is continuation of #39550i by @fastio who implemented most of the logic.
Added new infrastructure for query analysis and planning under allow_experimental_analyzer setting. #31796 (Maksim Kita).
Improve the time to recover lost keeper connections. #42541 (Raúl Marín).
Add fuzzer for table definitions #40096 (Anton Popov). This represents the biggest advancement for ClickHouse testing in this year so far.

Added support of WHERE clause generation to AST Fuzzer and possibility to add or remove ORDER BY and WHERE clause. #38519 (Ilya Yatsishin).
Aarch64 binaries now require at least ARMv8.2, released in 2016. Most notably, this enables use of ARM LSE, i.e. native atomic operations. Also, CMake build option "NO_ARMV81_OR_HIGHER" has been added to allow compilation of binaries for older ARMv8.0 hardware, e.g. Raspberry Pi 4. #41610 (Robert Schulze).
Allow building ClickHouse with Musl (small changes after it was already supported but broken). #41987 (Alexey Milovidov).
Add the $CLICKHOUSE_CRONFILE file checking to avoid running the sed command to get the file not found error on install. #42081 (Chun-Sheng, Li).

Fix a bug that CORS headers are missing in some HTTP responses. #41792 (Frank Chen).
22.9 might fail to startup ReplicatedMergeTree table if that table was created by 20.3 or older version and was never altered, it's fixed. Fixes #41742. #41796 (Alexander Tokmakov).
When the batch sending fails for some reason, it cannot be automatically recovered, and if it is not processed in time, it will lead to accumulation, and the printed error message will become longer and longer, which will cause the http thread to block. #41813 (zhongyuankai).
Old versions of Replicated database don't have a special marker in [Zoo]Keeper. We need to check only whether the node contains come obscure data instead of special mark. #41875 (Nikita Mikhaylov).
Fixed "Directory already exists and is not empty" error on detaching broken part that might prevent ReplicatedMergeTree table from starting replication. Fixes #40957. #41981 (Alexander Tokmakov).

The maximum size of fetches for each table accidentally was set to 8 while the pool size could be bigger. Now the maximum size of fetches for table is equal to the pool size. #42090 (Nikita Mikhaylov).
A table might be shut down and a dictionary might be detached before checking if can be dropped without breaking dependencies between table, it's fixed. Fixes #41982. #42106 (Alexander Tokmakov).
Fix bad inefficiency of remote_filesystem_read_method=read with filesystem cache. Closes #42125. #42129 (Kseniia Sumarokova).
Fix possible timeout exception for distributed queries with use_hedged_requests = 0. #42130 (Azat Khuzhin).
Fixed a minor bug inside function runningDifference in case of using it with Date32 type. Previously Date was used and it may cause some logical errors like Bad cast from type DB::ColumnVector<int> to DB::ColumnVector<unsigned short>'. #42143 (Alfred Xu).
DISTINCT in order fails with LOGICAL_ERROR if first column in sorting key contains function. #42186 (Igor Nikonov).

Fix read from Buffer tables with read in order desc. #42236 (Duc Canh Le).
Fix a bug which prevents ClickHouse to start when background_pool_size setting is set on default profile but background_merges_mutations_concurrency_ratio is not. #42315 (nvartolomei).
ALTER UPDATE of attached part (with columns different from table schema) could create an invalid columns.txt metadata on disk. Reading from such part could fail with errors or return invalid data. Fixes #42161. #42319 (Nikolai Kochetov).
Setting additional_table_filters were not applied to Distributed storage. Fixes #41692. #42322 (Nikolai Kochetov).

Fix bad_cast assert during INSERT into Annoy indexes over non-Float32 columns. Annoy indices is an experimental feature. #42485 (Robert Schulze).
Arithmetic operator with Date or DateTime and 128 or 256-bit integer was referencing uninitialized memory. #42453. #42573 (Alexey Milovidov).
Fix unexpected table loading error when partition key contains alias function names during server upgrade. #36379 (Amos Bird).
Upgrade from 20.3 and older to 22.9 and newer should be done through an intermediate version if there are any ReplicatedMergeTree tables, otherwise server with the new version will not start. #40641 (Alexander Tokmakov).
Remove the functions accurate_Cast and accurate_CastOrNull (they are different to accurateCast and accurateCastOrNull by underscore in the name and they are not affected by the value of cast_keep_nullable setting). These functions were undocumented, untested, unused, and unneeded. They appeared to be alive due to code generalization. #40682 (Alexey Milovidov).
Add a test to ensure that every new table function will be documented. See #40649. Rename table function MeiliSearch to meilisearch. #40709 (Alexey Milovidov).

It will be disabled by default. Note that this setting doesn't influence output formats JSON/JSONCompact/JSONColumnsWithMetadata, they always validate utf8 sequences (this exception was made because of compatibility reasons). - Add new setting input_format_json_read_numbers_as_strings that allows to parse numbers in String column, the setting is disabled by default. - Add new setting output_format_json_quote_decimals that allows to output decimals in double quotes, disabled by default. - Allow to parse decimals in double quotes during data import. #40910 (Kruglov Pavel).
Add support to Parquet Time32/64 by converting it into DateTime64. Parquet time32/64 represents time elapsed since midnight, while DateTime32/64 represents an actual unix timestamp. Conversion simply offsets from 0. #41333 (Arthur Passos).
Implement set operations on Apache Datasketches. #39919 (Fangyuan Deng). Note: there is no point of using Apache Datasketches, they are inferiour than ClickHouse and only make sense for integration with other systems.
Allow recording errors to specified file while reading text formats (CSV, TSV). #40516 (zjial).
Add new storage engine KeeperMap, that uses ClickHouse Keeper or ZooKeeper as a key-value store. #39976 (Antonio Andelic). This storage engine is intended to store a small amount of metadata.
Improvement for in-memory data parts: remove completely processed WAL files. #40592 (Azat Khuzhin).

For compatibility reasons default value is ‘0’. #41214 (Roman Vasin).
For security and stability reasons, CatBoost models are no longer evaluated within the ClickHouse server. Instead, the evaluation is now done in the clickhouse-library-bridge, a separate process that loads the catboost library and communicates with the server process via HTTP.

Get rid of dlopen from the main ClickHouse code. It remains in the library-bridge and odbc-bridge. #41428 (Alexey Milovidov).
Don't allow dlopen in the main ClickHouse binary, because it is harmful and insecure. We don't use it. But it can be used by some libraries for the implementation of "plugins". We absolutely discourage the ancient technique of loading 3rd-party uncontrolled dangerous libraries into the process address space, because it is insane. #41429 (Alexey Milovidov).
Fix potential dataloss due to a bug in AWS SDK. Bug can be triggered only when clickhouse is used over S3. #40506 (alesapin). This bug has been open for 5 years in AWS SDK and is closed after our report.

Use DNS entries for both IPv4 and IPv6 if present. #40353 (Maksim Kita).
Removed skipping of mutations in unaffected partitions of MergeTree tables, because this feature never worked correctly and might cause resurrection of finished mutations. #40589 (Alexander Tokmakov).
The clickhouse server will crash if we add a grpc port which has been occupied to the configuration in runtime. #40597 (何李夫).
During insertion of a new query to the ProcessList allocations happen. If we reach the memory limit during these allocations we can not use OvercommitTracker, because ProcessList::mutex is already acquired. Fixes #40611. #40677 (Dmitry Novik).

Fix possible deadlock with async_socket_for_remote/use_hedged_requests and parallel KILL. #41343 (Azat Khuzhin).
Since 22.8 ON CLUSTER clause is ignored if database is Replicated and cluster name and database name are the same. Because of this DROP PARTITION ON CLUSTER worked unexpected way with Replicated. It's fixed, now ON CLUSTER clause is ignored only for queries that are replicated on database level. Fixes #41299. #41390 (Alexander Tokmakov).
Fix possible hung/deadlock on query cancellation (KILL QUERY or server shutdown). #41467 (Azat Khuzhin).

Fix read bytes/rows in X-ClickHouse-Summary with materialized views. #41586 (Raúl Marín).
Fix possible pipeline stuck exception for queries with OFFSET. The error was found with enable_optimize_predicate_expression = 0 and always false condition in WHERE. Fixes #41383. #41588 (Nikolai Kochetov).
Extended range of Date32 and DateTime64 to support dates from the year 1900 to 2299. In previous versions, the supported interval was only from the year 1925 to 2283. The implementation is using the proleptic Gregorian calendar (which is conformant with ISO 8601:2004 (clause 3.2.1 The Gregorian calendar)) instead of accounting for historical transitions from the Julian to the Gregorian calendar. This change affects implementation-specific behavior for out-of-range arguments. E.g. if in previous versions the value of 1899-01-01 was clamped to 1925-01-01, in the new version it will be clamped to 1900-01-01. It changes the behavior of rounding with toStartOfInterval if you pass INTERVAL 3 QUARTER up to one quarter because the intervals are counted from an implementation-specific point of time. Closes #28216, improves #38393. #39425 (Roman Vasin).
Now, all relevant dictionary sources respect remote_url_allow_hosts setting. It was already done for HTTP, Cassandra, Redis. Added ClickHouse, MongoDB, MySQL, PostgreSQL. Host is checked only for dictionaries created from DDL. #39184 (Nikolai Kochetov).
Prebuilt ClickHouse x86 binaries now require support for AVX instructions, i.e. a CPU not older than Intel Sandy Bridge / AMD Bulldozer, both released in 2011. #39000 (Robert Schulze).
Make the remote filesystem cache composable, allow not to evict certain files (regarding idx, mrk, ..), delete old cache version. Now it is possible to configure cache over Azure blob storage disk, over Local disk, over StaticWeb disk, etc. This PR is marked backward incompatible because cache configuration changes and in order for cache to work need to update the config file. Old cache will still be used with new configuration. The server will startup fine with the old cache configuration. Closes https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/issues/36140. Closes https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/issues/37889. (Kseniia Sumarokova). #36171)
Support SQL standard DELETE FROM syntax on merge tree tables and lightweight delete implementation for merge tree families. #37893 (Jianmei Zhang) (Alexander Gololobov). Note: this new feature does not make ClickHouse an HTAP DBMS.
Query parameters can be set in interactive mode as SET param_abc = 'def' and transferred via the native protocol as settings. #39906 (Nikita Taranov).
Quota key can be set in the native protocol (Yakov Olkhovsky).
Added a setting exact_rows_before_limit (0/1). When enabled, ClickHouse will provide exact value for rows_before_limit_at_least statistic, but with the cost that the data before limit will have to be read completely. This closes #6613. #25333 (kevin wan).
Added support for parallel distributed insert select with s3Cluster table function into tables with Distributed and Replicated engine #34670. #39107 (Nikita Mikhaylov).

Added concurrency control logic to limit total number of concurrent threads created by queries. #37558 (Sergei Trifonov). Add concurrent_threads_soft_limit parameter to increase performance in case of high QPS by means of limiting total number of threads for all queries. #37285 (Roman Vasin).
Intel® In-Memory Analytics Accelerator (Intel® IAA) is a hardware accelerator available in the upcoming generation of Intel® Xeon® Scalable processors ("Sapphire Rapids"). Its goal is to speed up common operations in analytics like data (de)compression and filtering. ClickHouse gained the new "DeflateQpl" compression codec which utilizes the Intel® IAA offloading technology to provide a high-performance DEFLATE implementation. The codec uses the Intel® Query Processing Library (QPL) which abstracts access to the hardware accelerator, respectively to a software fallback in case the hardware accelerator is not available. DEFLATE provides in general higher compression rates than ClickHouse's LZ4 default codec, and as a result, offers less disk I/O and lower main memory consumption. #36654 (jasperzhu). #39494 (Robert Schulze).
DISTINCT in order with ORDER BY: Deduce way to sort based on input stream sort description. Skip sorting if input stream is already sorted. #38719 (Igor Nikonov). Improve memory usage (significantly) and query execution time + use DistinctSortedChunkTransform for final distinct when DISTINCT columns match ORDER BY columns, but rename to DistinctSortedStreamTransform in EXPLAIN PIPELINE → this improves memory usage significantly + remove unnecessary allocations in hot loop in DistinctSortedChunkTransform. #39432 (Igor Nikonov). Use DistinctSortedTransform only when sort description is applicable to DISTINCT columns, otherwise fall back to ordinary DISTINCT implementation + it allows making less checks during DistinctSortedTransform execution. #39528 (Igor Nikonov). Fix: DistinctSortedTransform didn't take advantage of sorting. It never cleared HashSet since clearing_columns were detected incorrectly (always empty). So, it basically worked as ordinary DISTINCT (DistinctTransform). The fix reduces memory usage significantly. #39538 (Igor Nikonov).
Use local node as first priority to get structure of remote table when executing cluster and similar table functions. #39440 (Mingliang Pan).
Optimize filtering by numeric columns with AVX512VBMI2 compress store. #39633 (Guo Wangyang). For systems with AVX512 VBMI2, this PR improves performance by ca. 6% for SSB benchmark queries queries 3.1, 3.2 and 3.3 (SF=100). Tested on Intel Icelake Xeon 8380 * 2 socket. #40033 (Robert Schulze).

Normalize AggregateFunction types and state representations because optimizations like #35788 will treat count(not null columns) as count(), which might confuses distributed interpreters with the following error : Conversion from AggregateFunction(count) to AggregateFunction(count, Int64) is not supported. #39420 (Amos Bird). The functions with identical states can be used in materialized views interchangeably.
Rework and simplify the system.backups table, remove the internal column, allow user to set the ID of operation, add columns num_files, uncompressed_size, compressed_size, start_time, end_time. #39503 (Vitaly Baranov).
Improved structure of DDL query result table for Replicated database (separate columns with shard and replica name, more clear status) - CREATE TABLE ... ON CLUSTER queries can be normalized on initiator first if distributed_ddl_entry_format_version is set to 3 (default value). It means that ON CLUSTER queries may not work if initiator does not belong to the cluster that specified in query. Fixes #37318, #39500 - Ignore ON CLUSTER clause if database is Replicated and cluster name equals to database name. Related to #35570 - Miscellaneous minor fixes for Replicated database engine - Check metadata consistency when starting up Replicated database, start replica recovery in case of mismatch of local metadata and metadata in Keeper. Resolves #24880. #37198 (Alexander Tokmakov).
Add result_rows and result_bytes to progress reports (X-ClickHouse-Summary). #39567 (Raúl Marín).

Extend the system.processors_profile_log with more information such as input rows. #40121 (Amos Bird).
Display server-side time in clickhouse-benchmark by default if it is available (since ClickHouse version 22.8). This is needed to correctly compare the performance of clouds. This behavior can be changed with the new --client-side-time command line option. Change the --randomize command line option from --randomize 1 to the form without argument. #40193 (Alexey Milovidov).
Add counters (ProfileEvents) for cases when query complexity limitation has been set and has reached (a separate counter for overflow_mode = break and throw). For example, if you have set up max_rows_to_read with read_overflow_mode = 'break', looking at the value of OverflowBreak counter will allow distinguishing incomplete results. #40205 (Alexey Milovidov).

Update tzdata to 2022b to support the new timezone changes. See https://github.com/google/cctz/pull/226. Chile's 2022 DST start is delayed from September 4 to September 11. Iran plans to stop observing DST permanently, after it falls back on 2022-09-21. There are corrections of the historical time zone of Asia/Tehran in the year 1977: Iran adopted standard time in 1935, not 1946. In 1977 it observed DST from 03-21 23:00 to 10-20 24:00; its 1978 transitions were on 03-24 and 08-05, not 03-20 and 10-20; and its spring 1979 transition was on 05-27, not 03-21 (https://data.iana.org/time-zones/tzdb/NEWS). (Alexey Milovidov).

Fix use-after-free for aggregate functions with Map combinator that leads to incorrect result. #38748 (Azat Khuzhin).
Remove support for octal number literals in SQL. In previous versions they were parsed as Float64. #37765 (Yakov Olkhovskiy).
Changes how settings using seconds as type are parsed to support floating point values (for example: max_execution_time=0.5). Infinity or NaN values will throw an exception. #37187 (Raúl Marín).
Changed format of binary serialization of columns of experimental type Object. New format is more convenient to implement by third-party clients. #37482 (Anton Popov).
Turn on setting output_format_json_named_tuples_as_objects by default. It allows to serialize named tuples as JSON objects in JSON formats. #37756 (Anton Popov).
LIKE patterns with trailing escape symbol ('\') are now disallowed (as mandated by the SQL standard). #37764 (Robert Schulze).
If you run different ClickHouse versions on a cluster with AArch64 CPU or mix AArch64 and amd64 on a cluster, and use distributed queries with GROUP BY multiple keys of fixed-size type that fit in 256 bits but don't fit in 64 bits, and the size of the result is huge, the data will not be fully aggregated in the result of these queries during upgrade. Workaround: upgrade with downtime instead of a rolling upgrade.
Add support for Maps and Records in Avro format. Add new setting input_format_avro_null_as_default that allow to insert null as default in Avro format. Closes #18925 Closes #37378 Closes #32899. #37525 (Kruglov Pavel).
Add clickhouse-disks tool to introspect and operate on virtual filesystems configured for ClickHouse. #36060 (Artyom Yurkov).
Explicit SALT specification is allowed for CREATE USER <user> IDENTIFIED WITH sha256_hash. #37377 (Yakov Olkhovskiy).

Added a new window function nonNegativeDerivative(metric_column, timestamp_column[, INTERVAL x SECOND]). #37628 (Andrey Zvonov).
Implemented changing the comment for ReplicatedMergeTree tables. #37416 (Vasily Nemkov).
Added SYSTEM UNFREEZE query that deletes the whole backup regardless if the corresponding table is deleted or not. #36424 (Vadim Volodin).
Added numerous optimizations for ARM NEON #38093(Daniel Kutenin), (Alexandra Pilipyuk) Note: if you run different ClickHouse versions on a cluster with ARM CPU and use distributed queries with GROUP BY multiple keys of fixed-size type that fit in 256 bits but don't fit in 64 bits, the result of the aggregation query will be wrong during upgrade. Workaround: upgrade with downtime instead of a rolling upgrade.
Improve performance and memory usage for select of subset of columns for formats Native, Protobuf, CapnProto, JSONEachRow, TSKV, all formats with suffixes WithNames/WithNamesAndTypes. Previously while selecting only subset of columns from files in these formats all columns were read and stored in memory. Now only required columns are read. This PR enables setting input_format_skip_unknown_fields by default, because otherwise in case of select of subset of columns exception will be thrown. #37192 (Kruglov Pavel).
Now more filters can be pushed down for join. #37472 (Amos Bird).
Load marks for only necessary columns when reading wide parts. #36879 (Anton Kozlov).
Improved performance of aggregation in case, when sparse columns (can be enabled by experimental setting ratio_of_defaults_for_sparse_serialization in MergeTree tables) are used as arguments in aggregate functions. #37617 (Anton Popov).
Optimize function COALESCE with two arguments. #37666 (Anton Popov).
Replace multiIf to if in case when multiIf has only one condition, because function if is more performant. #37695 (Anton Popov).
Improve performance of dictGetDescendants, dictGetChildren functions, create temporary parent to children hierarchical index per query, not per function call during query. Allow to specify BIDIRECTIONAL for HIERARHICAL attributes, dictionary will maintain parent to children index in memory, that way functions dictGetDescendants, dictGetChildren will not create temporary index per query. Closes #32481. #37148 (Maksim Kita).
Aggregates state destruction now may be posted on a thread pool. For queries with LIMIT and big state it provides significant speedup, e.g. select uniq(number) from numbers_mt(1e7) group by number limit 100 became around 2.5x faster. #37855 (Nikita Taranov).
Improve performance of hasAll function using dynamic dispatch infrastructure. #37484 (Maksim Kita).

Apply read method threadpool for Hive integration engine. This will significantly speed up reading. #36328 (李扬).
When all the columns to read are partition keys, construct columns by the file's row number without real reading the Hive file. #37103 (lgbo).
Support multi disks for caching hive files. #37279 (lgbo).
Limiting the maximum cache usage per query can effectively prevent cache pool contamination. Related Issues. #37859 (Han Shukai).
Currently clickhouse directly downloads all remote files to the local cache (even if they are only read once), which will frequently cause IO of the local hard disk. In some scenarios, these IOs may not be necessary and may easily cause negative optimization. As shown in the figure below, when we run SSB Q1-Q4, the performance of the cache has caused negative optimization. #37516 (Han Shukai).
Allow to prune the list of files via virtual columns such as _file and _path when reading from S3. This is for #37174 , #23494. #37356 (Amos Bird).
In function: CompressedWriteBuffer::nextImpl(), there is an unnecessary write-copy step that would happen frequently during inserting data. Below shows the differentiation with this patch: - Before: 1. Compress "working_buffer" into "compressed_buffer" 2. write-copy into "out" - After: Directly Compress "working_buffer" into "out". #37242 (jasperzhu).
Client will try every IP address returned by DNS resolution until successful connection. #37273 (Yakov Olkhovskiy).
Allow to use String type instead of Binary in Arrow/Parquet/ORC formats. This PR introduces 3 new settings for it: output_format_arrow_string_as_string, output_format_parquet_string_as_string, output_format_orc_string_as_string. Default value for all settings is false. #37327 (Kruglov Pavel).
Apply setting input_format_max_rows_to_read_for_schema_inference for all read rows in total from all files in globs. Previously setting input_format_max_rows_to_read_for_schema_inference was applied for each file in glob separately and in case of huge number of nulls we could read first input_format_max_rows_to_read_for_schema_inference rows from each file and get nothing. Also increase default value for this setting to 25000. #37332 (Kruglov Pavel).
Add separate CLUSTER grant (and access_control_improvements.on_cluster_queries_require_cluster_grant configuration directive, for backward compatibility, default to false). #35767 (Azat Khuzhin).
Implement least_used load balancing algorithm for disks inside volume (multi disk configuration). #36686 (Azat Khuzhin).
Modify the HTTP Endpoint to return the full stats under the X-ClickHouse-Summary header when send_progress_in_http_headers=0 (before it would return all zeros). - Modify the HTTP Endpoint to return X-ClickHouse-Exception-Code header when progress has been sent before (send_progress_in_http_headers=1) - Modify the HTTP Endpoint to return HTTP_REQUEST_TIMEOUT (408) instead of HTTP_INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR (500) on TIMEOUT_EXCEEDED errors. #36884 (Raúl Marín).
Allow a user to inspect grants from granted roles. #36941 (nvartolomei).
Do not calculate an integral numerically but use CDF functions instead. This will speed up execution and will increase the precision. This fixes #36714. #36953 (Nikita Mikhaylov).
Add default implementation for Nothing in functions. Now most of the functions will return column with type Nothing in case one of it's arguments is Nothing. It also solves problem with functions like arrayMap/arrayFilter and similar when they have empty array as an argument. Previously queries like select arrayMap(x -> 2 * x, []); failed because function inside lambda cannot work with type Nothing, now such queries return empty array with type Array(Nothing). Also add support for arrays of nullable types in functions like arrayFilter/arrayFill. Previously, queries like select arrayFilter(x -> x % 2, [1, NULL]) failed, now they work (if the result of lambda is NULL, then this value won't be included in the result). Closes #37000. #37048 (Kruglov Pavel).
Now if a shard has local replica we create a local plan and a plan to read from all remote replicas. They have shared initiator which coordinates reading. #37204 (Nikita Mikhaylov).

Do not display -0.0 CPU time in clickhouse-client. It can appear due to rounding errors. This closes #38003. This closes #38038. #38064 (Alexey Milovidov).
Play UI: Keep controls in place when the page is scrolled horizontally. This makes edits comfortable even if the table is wide and it was scrolled far to the right. The feature proposed by Maksym Tereshchenko from CaspianDB. #37470 (Alexey Milovidov).
Modify query div in play.html to be extendable beyond 20% height. In case of very long queries it is helpful to extend the textarea element, only today, since the div is fixed height, the extended textarea hides the data div underneath. With this fix, extending the textarea element will push the data div down/up such the extended textarea won't hide it. Also, keeps query box width 100% even when the user adjusting the size of the query textarea. #37488 (guyco87).
Added ProfileEvents for introspection of type of written (inserted or merged) parts (Inserted{Wide/Compact/InMemory}Parts, MergedInto{Wide/Compact/InMemory}Parts. Added column part_type to system.part_log. Resolves #37495. #37536 (Anton Popov).
clickhouse-keeper improvement: move broken logs to a timestamped folder. #37565 (Antonio Andelic).
Do not write expired columns by TTL after subsequent merges (before only first merge/optimize of the part will not write expired by TTL columns, all other will do). #37570 (Azat Khuzhin).
More precise result of the dumpColumnStructure miscellaneous function in presence of LowCardinality or Sparse columns. In previous versions, these functions were converting the argument to a full column before returning the result. This is needed to provide an answer in #6935. #37633 (Alexey Milovidov).
clickhouse-keeper: store only unique session IDs for watches. #37641 (Azat Khuzhin).
Now in MergeTree table engines family failed-to-move parts will be removed instantly. #37994 (alesapin).
Now if setting always_fetch_merged_part is enabled for ReplicatedMergeTree merges will try to find parts on other replicas rarely with smaller load for [Zoo]Keeper. #37995 (alesapin).
Add implicit grants with grant option too. For example GRANT CREATE TABLE ON test.* TO A WITH GRANT OPTION now allows A to execute GRANT CREATE VIEW ON test.* TO B. #38017 (Vitaly Baranov).
Use clang-14 and LLVM infrastructure version 14 for builds. This closes #34681. #34754 (Alexey Milovidov). Note: clang-14 has a bug in ThreadSanitizer that makes our CI work worse.

Fix possible heap-use-after-free error when reading system.projection_parts and system.projection_parts_columns . This fixes #37184. #37185 (Amos Bird).
Now, background merges, mutations and OPTIMIZE will not increment SelectedRows and SelectedBytes metrics. They (still) will increment MergedRows and MergedUncompressedBytes as it was before. This only affects the metric values, and makes them better. This change does not introduce any incompatibility, but you may wonder about the changes of metrics, so we put in this category. #37040 (Nikolai Kochetov).
Updated the BoringSSL module to the official FIPS compliant version. This makes ClickHouse FIPS compliant. #35914 (Meena-Renganathan). The ciphers aes-192-cfb128 and aes-256-cfb128 were removed, because they are not included in the FIPS certified version of BoringSSL.
max_memory_usage setting is removed from the default user profile in users.xml. This enables flexible memory limits for queries instead of the old rigid limit of 10 GB.
Disable log_query_threads setting by default. It controls the logging of statistics about every thread participating in query execution. After supporting asynchronous reads, the total number of distinct thread ids became too large, and logging into the query_thread_log has become too heavy. #37077 (Alexey Milovidov).
Add MySQLDump input format. It reads all data from INSERT queries belonging to one table in dump. If there are more than one table, by default it reads data from the first one. #36667 (Kruglov Pavel).
Show the total_rows and total_bytes fields in system.tables for temporary tables. #36401. #36439 (xiedeyantu).
Allow to override parts_to_delay_insert and parts_to_throw_insert with query-level settings. If they are defined, they will override table-level settings. #36371 (Memo).
Implemented L1, L2, Linf, Cosine distance functions for arrays and L1, L2, Linf norm functions for arrays.
#37033 (qieqieplus). Caveat: the functions will be renamed.
Improve the WATCH query in WindowView: 1. Reduce the latency of providing query results by calling the fire_condition signal. 2. Makes the cancel query operation(ctrl-c) faster, by checking isCancelled() more frequently. #37226 (vxider).
Added new hash function wyHash64 for SQL. #36467 (olevino).
Improvement for replicated databases: Added SYSTEM SYNC DATABASE REPLICA query which allows to sync tables metadata inside Replicated database, because currently synchronisation is asynchronous. #35944 (Nikita Mikhaylov).
Improvement for remote filesystem cache: Better read from cache. #37054 (Kseniia Sumarokova). Improve SYSTEM DROP FILESYSTEM CACHE query: <path> option and FORCE option. #36639 (Kseniia Sumarokova).
Improvement for semistructured data: Allow to cast columns of type Object(...) to Object(Nullable(...)). #36564 (awakeljw).
Improvement for parallel replicas: We create a local interpreter if we want to execute query on localhost replica. But for when executing query on multiple replicas we rely on the fact that a connection exists so replicas can talk to coordinator. It is now improved and localhost replica can talk to coordinator directly in the same process. #36281 (Nikita Mikhaylov).
Improve performance of ORDER BY, MergeJoin, insertion into MergeTree using JIT compilation of sort columns comparator. #34469 (Maksim Kita).
Change structure of system.asynchronous_metric_log. It will take about 10 times less space. This closes #36357. The field event_time_microseconds was removed, because it is useless. #36360 (Alexey Milovidov).
Load marks for only necessary columns when reading wide parts. #36879 (Anton Kozlov).
Improves performance of file descriptor cache by narrowing mutex scopes. #36682 (Anton Kozlov).
Improve performance of reading from storage File and table functions file in case when path has globs and matched directory contains large number of files. #36647 (Anton Popov).
Apply parallel parsing for input format HiveText, which can speed up HiveText parsing by 2x when reading local file. #36650 (李扬).
The default HashJoin is not thread safe for inserting right table's rows and run it in a single thread. When the right table is large, the join process is too slow with low cpu utilization. #36415 (lgbo).
Allow to rewrite select countDistinct(a) from t to select count(1) from (select a from t groupBy a). #35993 (zhanglistar).
Transform OR LIKE chain to multiMatchAny. Will enable once we have more confidence it works. #34932 (Daniel Kutenin).
Show names of erroneous files in case of parsing errors while executing table functions file, s3 and url. #36314 (Anton Popov).
Allowed to increase the number of threads for executing background operations (merges, mutations, moves and fetches) at runtime if they are specified at top level config. #36425 (Nikita Mikhaylov).
Add a warning if someone running clickhouse-server with log level "test". The log level "test" was added recently and cannot be used in production due to inevitable, unavoidable, fatal and life-threatening performance degradation. #36824 (Alexey Milovidov).
Parse collations in CREATE TABLE, throw exception or ignore. closes #35892. #36271 (yuuch).
Option compatibility_ignore_auto_increment_in_create_table allows ignoring AUTO_INCREMENT keyword in a column declaration to simplify migration from MySQL. #37178 (Igor Nikonov).
Add aliases JSONLines and NDJSON for JSONEachRow. Closes #36303. #36327 (flynn).
Limit the max partitions could be queried for each hive table. Avoid resource overruns. #37281 (lgbo).
Added implicit cast for h3kRing function second argument to improve usability. Closes #35432. #37189 (Maksim Kita).
Fix progress indication for INSERT SELECT in clickhouse-local for any query and for file progress in client, more correct file progress. #37075 (Kseniia Sumarokova).
Fix bug which can lead to forgotten outdated parts in MergeTree table engines family in case of filesystem failures during parts removal. Before fix they will be removed only after first server restart. #37014 (alesapin).
Implemented a new mode of handling row policies which can be enabled in the main configuration which enables users without permissive row policies to read rows. #36997 (Vitaly Baranov).
Play UI: Nullable numbers will be aligned to the right in table cells. This closes #36982. #36988 (Alexey Milovidov).
Play UI: If there is one row in result and more than a few columns, display the result vertically. Continuation of #36811. #36842 (Alexey Milovidov).
Cleanup CSS in Play UI. The pixels are more evenly placed. Better usability for long content in table cells. #36569 (Alexey Milovidov).
Finalize write buffers in case of exception to avoid doing it in destructors. Hope it fixes: #36907. #36979 (Kruglov Pavel).
After #36425 settings like background_fetches_pool_size became obsolete and can appear in top level config, but clickhouse throws and exception like Error updating configuration from '/etc/clickhouse-server/config.xml' config.: Code: 137. DB::Exception: A setting 'background_fetches_pool_size' appeared at top level in config /etc/clickhouse-server/config.xml. This is fixed. #36917 (Nikita Mikhaylov).
Add extra diagnostic info (if applicable) when sending exception to other server. #36872 (tavplubix).
Allow to execute hash functions with arguments of type Array(Tuple(..)). #36812 (Anton Popov).
Refactor code around schema inference with globs. Try next file from glob only if it makes sense (previously we tried next file in case of any error). Also it fixes #36317. #36205 (Kruglov Pavel).
Add a separate CLUSTER grant (and access_control_improvements.on_cluster_queries_require_cluster_grant configuration directive, for backward compatibility, default to false). #35767 (Azat Khuzhin).
If the required amount of memory is available before the selected query stopped, all waiting queries continue execution. Now we don't stop any query if memory is freed before the moment when the selected query knows about the cancellation. #35637 (Dmitry Novik).
Nullables detection in protobuf. In proto3, default values are not sent on the wire. This makes it non-trivial to distinguish between null and default values for Nullable columns. A standard way to deal with this problem is to use Google wrappers to nest the target value within an inner message (see https://github.com/protocolbuffers/protobuf/blob/master/src/google/protobuf/wrappers.proto). In this case, a missing field is interpreted as null value, a field with missing value if interpreted as default value, and a field with regular value is interpreted as regular value. However, ClickHouse interprets Google wrappers as nested columns. We propose to introduce special behaviour to detect Google wrappers and interpret them like in the description above. For example, to serialize values for a Nullable column test, we would use google.protobuf.StringValue test in our .proto schema. Note that these types are so called "well-known types" in Protobuf, implemented in the library itself. #35149 (Jakub Kuklis).

Function yandexConsistentHash (consistent hashing algorithm by Konstantin "kostik" Oblakov) is renamed to kostikConsistentHash. The old name is left as an alias for compatibility. Although this change is backward compatible, we may remove the alias in subsequent releases, that's why it's recommended to update the usages of this function in your apps. #35553 (Alexey Milovidov).
Profiling on Processors level (under log_processors_profiles setting, ClickHouse will write time that processor spent during execution/waiting for data to system.processors_profile_log table). #34355 (Azat Khuzhin).
Support new type of quota WRITTEN BYTES to limit amount of written bytes during insert queries. #35736 (Anton Popov).
Added function flattenTuple. It receives nested named Tuple as an argument and returns a flatten Tuple which elements are the paths from the original Tuple. E.g.: Tuple(a Int, Tuple(b Int, c Int)) -> Tuple(a Int, b Int, c Int). flattenTuple can be used to select all paths from type Object as separate columns. #35690 (Anton Popov).
Add a new kind of row policies named simple. Before this PR we had two kinds or row policies: permissive and restrictive. A simple row policy adds a new filter on a table without any side-effects like it was for permissive and restrictive policies. #35345 (Vitaly Baranov).
Added an ability to specify cluster secret in replicated database. #35333 (Nikita Mikhaylov).
Added sanity checks on server startup (available memory and disk space, max thread count, etc). #34566 (Sergei Trifonov).

Rename cache related settings (remote_fs_enable_cache -> enable_filesystem_cache, etc). #35475 (Kseniia Sumarokova).
An option to store parts metadata in RocksDB. Speed up parts loading process of MergeTree to accelerate starting up of clickhouse-server. With this improvement, clickhouse-server was able to decrease starting up time from 75 minutes to 20 seconds, with 700k mergetree parts. #32928 (李扬).
A new query plan optimization. Evaluate functions after ORDER BY when possible. As an example, for a query SELECT sipHash64(number) FROM numbers(1e8) ORDER BY number LIMIT 5, function sipHash64 would be evaluated after ORDER BY and LIMIT, which gives ~20x speed up. #35623 (Nikita Taranov).
Sizes of hash tables used during aggregation now collected and used in later queries to avoid hash tables resizes. #33439 (Nikita Taranov).
URL storage engine now downloads multiple chunks in parallel if the endpoint supports HTTP Range.

Multiple improvements for schema inference. Use some tweaks and heuristics to determine numbers, strings, arrays, tuples and maps in CSV, TSV and TSVRaw data formats. Add setting input_format_csv_use_best_effort_in_schema_inference for CSV format that enables/disables using these heuristics, if it's disabled, we treat everything as string. Add similar setting input_format_tsv_use_best_effort_in_schema_inference for TSV/TSVRaw format. These settings are enabled by default. - Add Maps support for schema inference in Values format. - Fix possible segfault in schema inference in Values format. - Allow to skip columns with unsupported types in Arrow/ORC/Parquet formats. Add corresponding settings for it: input_format_{parquet|orc|arrow}_skip_columns_with_unsupported_types_in_schema_inference. These settings are disabled by default. - Allow to convert a column with type Null to a Nullable column with all NULL values in Arrow/Parquet formats. - Allow to specify column names in schema inference via setting column_names_for_schema_inference for formats that don't contain column names (like CSV, TSV, JSONCompactEachRow, etc) - Fix schema inference in ORC/Arrow/Parquet formats in terms of working with Nullable columns. Previously all inferred types were not Nullable and it blocked reading Nullable columns from data, now it's fixed and all inferred types are always Nullable (because we cannot understand that column is Nullable or not by reading the schema). - Fix schema inference in Template format with CSV escaping rules. #35582 (Kruglov Pavel).
Add parallel parsing and schema inference for format JSONAsObject. #35592 (Anton Popov).
Added a support for automatic schema inference to s3Cluster table function. Synced the signatures of s3 and s3Cluster. #35544 (Nikita Mikhaylov).

Make arrayCompact function behave as other higher-order functions: perform compaction not of lambda function results but on the original array. If you're using nontrivial lambda functions in arrayCompact you may restore old behaviour by wrapping arrayCompact arguments into arrayMap. Closes #34010#18535#14778. #34795 (Alexandre Snarskii).
Change implementation specific behavior on overflow of function toDatetime. It will be saturated to the nearest min/max supported instant of datetime instead of wraparound. This change is highlighted as "backward incompatible" because someone may unintentionally rely on the old behavior. #32898 (HaiBo Li).
Make function cast(value, 'IPv4'), cast(value, 'IPv6') behave same as toIPv4, toIPv6 functions. Changed behavior of incorrect IP address passed into functions toIPv4, toIPv6, now if invalid IP address passes into this functions exception will be raised, before this function return default value. Added functions IPv4StringToNumOrDefault, IPv4StringToNumOrNull, IPv6StringToNumOrDefault, IPv6StringOrNulltoIPv4OrDefault, toIPv4OrNull, toIPv6OrDefault, toIPv6OrNull. Functions IPv4StringToNumOrDefault , toIPv4OrDefault , toIPv6OrDefault should be used if previous logic relied on IPv4StringToNum, toIPv4, toIPv6 returning default value for invalid address. Added setting cast_ipv4_ipv6_default_on_conversion_error, if this setting enabled, then IP address conversion functions will behave as before. Closes #22825. Closes #5799. Closes #35156. #35240 (Maksim Kita).
Support for caching data locally for remote filesystems. It can be enabled for s3 disks. Closes #28961. #33717 (Kseniia Sumarokova). In the meantime, we enabled the test suite on s3 filesystem and no more known issues exist, so it is started to be production ready.
Add new table function hive. It can be used as follows hive('<hive metastore url>', '<hive database>', '<hive table name>', '<columns definition>', '<partition columns>') for example SELECT * FROM hive('thrift://hivetest:9083', 'test', 'demo', 'id Nullable(String), score Nullable(Int32), day Nullable(String)', 'day'). #34946 (lgbo).
Support authentication of users connected via SSL by their X.509 certificate. #31484 (eungenue).
Support schema inference for inserting into table functions file/hdfs/s3/url. #34732 (Kruglov Pavel).

Allow getting default user and password for clickhouse-client from the CLICKHOUSE_USER and CLICKHOUSE_PASSWORD environment variables. Close #34538. #34947 (DR).
New data type Object(<schema_format>), which supports storing of semi-structured data (for now JSON only). Data is written to such types as string. Then all paths are extracted according to format of semi-structured data and written as separate columns in most optimal types, that can store all their values. Those columns can be queried by names that match paths in source data. E.g data.key1.key2 or with cast operator data.key1.key2::Int64.
Add database_replicated_allow_only_replicated_engine setting. When enabled, it only allowed to only create Replicated tables or tables with stateless engines in Replicated databases. #35214 (Nikolai Kochetov). Note that Replicated database is still an experimental feature.

EXPLAIN AST query can output AST in form of a graph in Graphviz format: EXPLAIN AST graph = 1 SELECT * FROM system.parts. #35173 (李扬).
When large files were written with s3 table function or table engine, the content type on the files was mistakenly set to application/xml due to a bug in the AWS SDK. This closes #33964. #34433 (Alexey Milovidov).
Change restrictive row policies a bit to make them an easier alternative to permissive policies in easy cases. If for a particular table only restrictive policies exist (without permissive policies) users will be able to see some rows. Also SHOW CREATE ROW POLICY will always show AS permissive or AS restrictive in row policy's definition. #34596 (Vitaly Baranov).
Improve schema inference with globs in File/S3/HDFS/URL engines. Try to use the next path for schema inference in case of error. #34465 (Kruglov Pavel).

Currently, if the user changes the settings of the system tables there will be tons of logs and ClickHouse will rename the tables every minute. This fixes #34929. #34949 (Nikita Mikhaylov).
Use connection pool for Hive metastore client. #34940 (lgbo).
Ignore per-column TTL in CREATE TABLE AS if new table engine does not support it (i.e. if the engine is not of MergeTree family). #34938 (Azat Khuzhin).
Implement memory statistics for FreeBSD - this is required for max_server_memory_usage to work correctly. #34902 (Alexandre Snarskii).

Added UUID data type support for functions hex and bin. #32170 (Frank Chen).
Fix reading of subcolumns with dots in their names. In particular fixed reading of Nested columns, if their element names contain dots (e.g Nested(`keys.name` String, `keys.id` UInt64, values UInt64)). #34228 (Anton Popov).
Fixes parallel_view_processing = 0 not working when inserting into a table using VALUES. - Fixes view_duration_ms in the query_views_log not being set correctly for materialized views. #34067 (Raúl Marín).
Fix parsing tables structure from ZooKeeper: now metadata from ZooKeeper compared with local metadata in canonical form. It helps when canonical function names can change between ClickHouse versions. #33933 (sunny).
Properly escape some characters for interaction with LDAP. #33401 (IlyaTsoi).
Ensure that tests don't depend on the result of non-stable sorting of equal elements. Added equal items ranges randomization in debug after sort to prevent issues when we rely on equal items sort order. #34393 (Maksim Kita).
Remove clickhouse-test debian package because it's obsolete. #33948 (Ilya Yatsishin).
Multiple improvements for build system to remove the possibility of occasionally using packages from the OS and to enforce hermetic builds. #33695 (Amos Bird).

Fixed the assertion in case of using allow_experimental_parallel_reading_from_replicas with max_parallel_replicas equals to 1. This fixes #34525. #34613 (Nikita Mikhaylov).
Fix rare bug while reading of empty arrays, which could lead to Data compressed with different methods error. It can reproduce if you have mostly empty arrays, but not always. And reading is performed in backward direction with ORDER BY ... DESC. This error is extremely unlikely to happen. #34327 (Anton Popov).
Fix wrong result of round/roundBankers if integer values of small types are rounded. Closes #33267. #34562 (李扬).
Sometimes query cancellation did not work immediately when we were reading multiple files from s3 or HDFS. Fixes #34301 Relates to #34397. #34539 (Dmitry Novik).

Fix bug which can rarely lead to error "Cannot read all data" while reading LowCardinality columns of MergeTree table engines family which stores data on remote file system like S3 (virtual filesystem over s3 is an experimental feature that is not ready for production). #34139 (alesapin).
Fix inserts to distributed tables in case of a change of native protocol. The last change was in the version 22.1, so there may be some failures of inserts to distributed tables after upgrade to that version. #34132 (Anton Popov).
Fix bug which lead to inability for server to start when both replicated access storage and keeper (embedded in clickhouse-server) are used. Introduced two settings for keeper socket timeout instead of settings from default user: keeper_server.socket_receive_timeout_sec and keeper_server.socket_send_timeout_sec. Fixes #33973. #33988 (alesapin).
Fix usage of functions array and tuple with literal arguments in distributed queries. Previously it could lead to Not found columns exception. #33938 (Anton Popov).
Aggregate function combinator -If did not correctly process Nullable filter argument. This closes #27073. #33920 (alexey-milovidov).
Fix potential race condition when doing remote disk read (virtual filesystem over s3 is an experimental feature that is not ready for production). #33912 (Amos Bird).

Fix potential crash if group_by_overflow_mode was set to any (approximate GROUP BY) and aggregation was performed by single column of type LowCardinality. #34506 (DR).
Fix inserting to temporary tables via gRPC client-server protocol. Fixes #34347, issue #2. #34364 (Vitaly Baranov).
This PR allows using multiple LDAP storages in the same list of user directories. It worked earlier but was broken because LDAP tests are disabled (they are part of the testflows tests). #33574 (Vitaly Baranov).
The functions left and right were previously implemented in parser and now full-featured. Distributed queries with left or right functions without aliases may throw exception if cluster contains different versions of clickhouse-server. If you are upgrading your cluster and encounter this error, you should finish upgrading your cluster to ensure all nodes have the same version. Also you can add aliases (AS something) to the columns in your queries to avoid this issue. #33407 (alexey-milovidov).
Resource usage by scalar subqueries is fully accounted since this version. With this change, rows read in scalar subqueries are now reported in the query_log. If the scalar subquery is cached (repeated or called for several rows) the rows read are only counted once. This change allows KILLing queries and reporting progress while they are executing scalar subqueries. #32271 (Raúl Marín).
Implement data schema inference for input formats. Allow to skip structure (or write just auto) in table functions file, url, s3, hdfs and in parameters of clickhouse-local .

Detect format by file extension in file/hdfs/s3/url table functions and HDFS/S3/URL table engines and also for SELECT INTO OUTFILE and INSERT FROM INFILE#33565 (Kruglov Pavel). Close #30918. #33443 (OnePiece).
Automatic cluster discovery via Zoo/Keeper. It allows to add replicas to the cluster without changing configuration on every server. #31442 (vdimir).
Implement hive table engine to access apache hive from clickhouse. This implements: #29245. #31104 (taiyang-li).
Add aggregate functions cramersV, cramersVBiasCorrected, theilsU and contingency. These functions calculate dependency (measure of association) between categorical values. All these functions are using cross-tab (histogram on pairs) for implementation. You can imagine it like a correlation coefficient but for any discrete values (not necessary numbers). #33366 (alexey-milovidov). Initial implementation by Vanyok-All-is-OK and antikvist.
Added table function hdfsCluster which allows processing files from HDFS in parallel from many nodes in a specified cluster, similarly to s3Cluster. #32400 (Zhichang Yu).

Add new functions for H3 coordinate system: h3HexAreaKm2, h3CellAreaM2, h3CellAreaRads2. #33479 (Bharat Nallan).
Support moving conditions to PREWHERE (setting optimize_move_to_prewhere) for tables of Merge engine if its all underlying tables supports PREWHERE. #33300 (Anton Popov).
More efficient handling of globs for URL storage. Now you can easily query million URLs in parallel with retries. Closes #32866. #32907 (Kseniia Sumarokova).
Non significant change. In extremely rare cases when data part is lost on every replica, after merging of some data parts, the subsequent queries may skip less amount of partitions during partition pruning. This hardly affects anything. #32220 (Azat Khuzhin).
Improve clickhouse-keeper writing performance by optimization the size calculation logic. #32366 (zhanglistar).
Optimize single part projection materialization. This closes #31669. #31885 (Amos Bird).
Improve query performance of system tables. #33312 (OnePiece).
Optimize selecting of MergeTree parts that can be moved between volumes. #33225 (OnePiece).
Parallel reading from multiple replicas within a shard during distributed query without using sample key. To enable this, set allow_experimental_parallel_reading_from_replicas = 1 and max_parallel_replicas to any number. This closes #26748. #29279 (Nikita Mikhaylov).
Implemented sparse serialization. It can reduce usage of disk space and improve performance of some queries for columns, which contain a lot of default (zero) values. It can be enabled by setting ratio_for_sparse_serialization. Sparse serialization will be chosen dynamically for column, if it has ratio of number of default values to number of all values above that threshold. Serialization (default or sparse) will be fixed for every column in part, but may varies between parts. #22535 (Anton Popov).
Change ZooKeeper path for zero-copy marks for shared data. Note that "zero-copy replication" is non-production feature (in early stages of development) that you shouldn't use anyway. But in case if you have used it, let you keep in mind this change. #32061 (ianton-ru).
Events clause support for WINDOW VIEW watch query. #32607 (vxider).
Fix ACL with explicit digit hash in clickhouse-keeper: now the behavior consistent with ZooKeeper and generated digest is always accepted. #33249 (小路). #33246.
Fix unexpected projection removal when detaching parts. #32067 (Amos Bird).
Now date time conversion functions that generates time before 1970-01-01 00:00:00 will be saturated to zero instead of overflow. #29953 (Amos Bird). It also fixes a bug in index analysis if date truncation function would yield result before the Unix epoch.
Always display resource usage (total CPU usage, total RAM usage and max RAM usage per host) in client. #33271 (alexey-milovidov).
Improve Bool type serialization and deserialization, check the range of values. #32984 (Kruglov Pavel).
If an invalid setting is defined using the SET query or using the query parameters in the HTTP request, error message will contain suggestions that are similar to the invalid setting string (if any exists). #32946 (Antonio Andelic).
