## Problem
We don't have metrics to exactly quantify the end user impact of
on-demand downloads.
Perf tracing is underway (#11140) to supply us with high-resolution
*samples*.
But it will also be useful to have some aggregate per-timeline and
per-instance metrics that definitively contain all observations.
## Summary of changes
This PR consists of independent commits that should be reviewed
independently.
However, for convenience, we're going to merge them together.
- refactor(metrics): measure_remote_op can use async traits
- impr(pageserver metrics): task_kind dimension for
remote_timeline_client latency histo
- implements https://github.com/neondatabase/cloud/issues/26800
- refs
https://github.com/neondatabase/cloud/issues/26193#issuecomment-2769705793
- use the opportunity to rename the metric and add a _global suffix;
checked grafana export, it's only used in two personal dashboards, one
of them mine, the other by Heikki

- (auto)fix all new issues
Add wrappers for a few commands that didn't have them before. Move the
logic to generate tenant and timeline IDs from NeonCli to the callers,
so that NeonCli is more purely just a type-safe wrapper around
'neon_local'.
Before this PR, the changed tests would overwrite the entire
`tenant_config` because `pageserver_config_override` is merged
non-recursively into the `ps_cfg`.
This meant they would override the
`PAGESERVER_DEFAULT_TENANT_CONFIG_COMPACTION_ALGORITHM`, impacting our
matrix build for `compaction_algorithm=Tiered|Legacy` in
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/7748.
I found the tests fixed in this PR using the
`NEON_PAGESERVER_PANIC_ON_UNSPECIFIED_COMPACTION_ALGORITHM` env var that
I added in #7748. Therefore, I think this is an exhaustive fix. This is
better than just searching the code base for `tenant_config`, which is
what I had sketched in #7747.
refs #7749
Fixes#5172 as it:
- removes recoinciliation with remote index_part.json and accepts remote
index_part.json as the truth, deleting any local progress which is yet
to be reflected in remote
- moves to prefer remote metadata
Additionally:
- tests with single LOCAL_FS parametrization are cleaned up
- adds a test case for branched (non-bootstrap) local only timeline
availability after restart

Refactor tests to have less globals.
This will allow to hopefully write more complex tests for our new metric
collection requirements in #5297. Includes reverted work from #4761
related to test globals.

Remote storage cleanup split from #5198:
- pageserver, extensions, and safekeepers now have their separate remote
storage
- RemoteStorageKind has the configuration code
- S3Storage has the cleanup code
- with MOCK_S3, pageserver, extensions, safekeepers use different
buckets
- with LOCAL_FS, `repo_dir / "local_fs_remote_storage" / $user` is used
as path, where $user is `pageserver`, `safekeeper`
- no more `NeonEnvBuilder.enable_xxx_remote_storage` but one
`enable_{pageserver,extensions,safekeeper}_remote_storage`
Should not have any real changes. These will allow us to default to
`LOCAL_FS` for pageserver on the next PR, remove
`RemoteStorageKind.NOOP`, work towards #5172.

## Problem
Tests using remote storage have manually entered `test_name` parameters,
which:
- Are easy to accidentally duplicate when copying code to make a new
test
- Omit parameters, so don't actually create unique S3 buckets when
running many tests concurrently.
## Summary of changes
- Use the `request` fixture in neon_env_builder fixture to get the test
name, then munge that into an S3 compatible bucket name.
- Remove the explicit `test_name` parameters to enable_remote_storage
I made a mistake when I adding `env.initial_timeline:
Optional[TimelineId]` in the #3839, should had just generated it and
used it to create a specific timeline. This PR fixes those mistakes, and
some extra calling into psql which must be slower than python field
access.
## Problem
neon_fixtures.py has grown to unmanageable size. It attracts conflicts.
When adding specific utils under for example `fixtures/pageserver`
things sometimes need to import stuff from `neon_fixtures.py` which
creates circular import. This is usually only needed for type
annotations, so `typing.TYPE_CHECKING` flag can mask the issue.
Nevertheless I believe that splitting neon_fixtures.py into smaller
parts is a better approach.
Currently the PR contains small things, but I plan to continue and move
NeonEnv to its own `fixtures.env` module. To keep the diff small I think
this PR can already be merged to cause less conflicts.
UPD: it looks like currently its not really possible to fully avoid
usage of `typing.TYPE_CHECKING`, because some components directly depend
on each other. I e Env -> Cli -> Env cycle. But its still worth it to
avoid it in as many places as possible. And decreasing neon_fixture's
size still makes sense.
We use the term "endpoint" in for compute Postgres nodes in the web UI
and user-facing documentation now. Adjust the nomenclature in the code.
This changes the name of the "neon_local pg" command to "neon_local
endpoint". Also adjust names of classes, variables etc. in the python
tests accordingly.
This also changes the directory structure so that endpoints are now
stored in:
.neon/endpoints/<endpoint id>
instead of:
.neon/pgdatadirs/tenants/<tenant_id>/<endpoint (node) name>
The tenant ID is no longer part of the path. That means that you
cannot have two endpoints with the same name/ID in two different
tenants anymore. That's consistent with how we treat endpoints in the
real control plane and proxy: the endpoint ID must be globally unique.
- use parse_metrics() in all places where we parse Prometheus metrics
- query_all: make `filter` argument optional
- encourage using properly parsed, typed metrics by changing get_metrics()
to return already-parsed metrics. The new get_metric_str() method,
like in the Safekeeper type, returns the raw text response.
This splits the storage_sync2::schedule_index_file into two (public)
functions:
1. `schedule_index_upload_for_metadata_update`, for when the metadata
(e.g. disk_consistent_lsn or last_gc_cutoff) has changed, and
2. `schedule_index_upload_for_file_changes`, for when layer file uploads
or deletions have been scheduled.
We now keep track of whether there have been any uploads or deletions
since the last index-file upload, and skip the upload in
`schedule_index_upload_for_file_changes` if there haven't been any
changes. That allows us to call the function liberally in timeline.rs,
whenever layer file uploads or deletions might've been scheduled,
without starting a lot of unnecessary index file uploads.
GC was covered earlier by commit c262390214, but that missed that we
have the same problem with compaction.
I saw an excessive number of index file upload operations in
production, even when nothing on the timeline changes. It was because
our GC schedules index file upload if the GC cutoff LSN is advanced,
even if the GC had nothing else to do. The GC cutoff LSN marches
steadily forwards, even when there is no user activity on the
timeline, when the cutoff is determined by the time-based PITR
interval setting. To dial that down, only schedule index file upload
when GC is about to actually remove something.
Previously, the /v1/tenant/:tenant_id/timeline/:timeline_id/do_gc API
call performed a flush and compaction on the timeline before
GC. Change it not to do that, and change all the tests that used that
API to perform compaction explicitly.
The compaction happens at a slightly different point now. Previously,
the code performed the `refresh_gc_info_internal` step first, and only
then did compaction on all the timelines. I don't think that was what
was originally intended here. Presumably the idea with compaction was
to make some old layer files available for GC. But if we're going to
flush the current in-memory layer to disk, surely you would want to
include the newly-written layer in the compaction too. I guess this
didn't make any difference to the tests in practice, but in any case,
the tests now perform the flush and compaction before any of the GC
steps.
Some of the tests might not need the compaction at all, but I didn't
try hard to determine which ones might need it. I left it out from a
few tests that intentionally tested calling do_gc with an invalid
tenant or timeline ID, though.
For better ergonomics. I always found it weird that we used UUID to
actually mean a tenant or timeline ID. It worked because it happened
to have the same length, 16 bytes, but it was hacky.
Merge batch_others and batch_pg_regress. The original idea was to
split all the python tests into multiple "batches" and run each batch
in parallel as a separate CI job. However, the batch_pg_regress batch
was pretty short compared to all the tests in batch_others. We could
split batch_others into multiple batches, but it actually seems better
to just treat them as one big pool of tests and use pytest's handle
the parallelism on its own. If we need to split them across multiple
nodes in the future, we could use pytest-shard or something else,
instead of managing the batches ourselves.
Merge test_neon_regress.py, test_pg_regress.py and test_isolation.py
into one file, test_pg_regress.py. Seems more clear to group all
pg_regress-based tests into one file, now that they would all be in
the same directory.
