This is an automated cherry-pick of #12450

What problem does this PR solve?

Issue Number: close #12449

What is changed and how it works?

This PR addresses an issue where split DDLs from a multi-table RENAME statement could be executed out of order downstream because they share the same CommitTs and the order of ranging map is non-deterministic.

Check List

Tests

  • Unit test
  • Integration test
  • Manual test

Questions

Will it cause performance regression or break compatibility?

None

Do you need to update user documentation, design documentation or monitoring documentation?

None

Release note

Fix the incorrect execution order of split DDLs generated from a multi-table DDL statement (e.g., RENAME TABLE).

Summary of Changes

Hello @ti-chi-bot, I'm Gemini Code Assist1! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request introduces a crucial fix to ensure strict ordering for Data Definition Language (DDL) operations, particularly those involving multiple tables like RENAME TABLE. Previously, DDL events originating from such multi-table statements could be processed out of sequence downstream due to sharing the same commit timestamp and the non-deterministic nature of map iteration. By incorporating a new sequence number into DDL events and updating the DDL management logic to respect this sequence, the change guarantees that complex DDL operations are applied in their intended order, preventing potential data inconsistencies.

Highlights

  • DDL Ordering Fix: Resolves an issue where multi-table DDLs (like RENAME TABLE) could execute out of order downstream due to shared commit timestamps and non-deterministic map iteration.
  • Sequence Number Introduction: A new 'Seq' field is added to 'DDLEvent' to explicitly define the order of DDLs with identical commit timestamps.
  • Serialization Updates: msgp serialization/deserialization logic for 'DDLEvent' and 'RedoDDLEvent' is updated to support the new 'Seq' field.
  • DDL Manager Logic: The 'ddlManager' now uses the 'Seq' field to ensure strict ordering when selecting the next DDL to execute, especially for events with the same 'CommitTs'.
  • Integration Test Coverage: New integration tests are added to specifically validate the correct ordering of RENAME TABLE DDL operations.

Code Review

This pull request correctly addresses a potential out-of-order execution issue for DDLs generated from a multi-table statement by introducing a Seq field to DDLEvent. The implementation looks solid, with the new field being properly handled during DDL event creation, serialization, and selection for execution. The refactoring in cdc/model/sink_gen.go to delegate serialization logic from RedoDDLEvent to DDLEvent is a great improvement for maintainability. The addition of an integration test for the multi-table RENAME scenario is also a valuable contribution to ensure the fix is effective. I have one minor suggestion regarding a typo in a comment.

// Seq is used to order the DDLs with the same commit ts
// Only used in the splited DDLEvent generated by a multi-table DDL,

There's a small typo here. "splited" should be "split".
