The "Starting postgres endpoint <name>" message is not needed, because
the neon_cli.py prints the neon_local command line used to start the
endpoint. That contains the same information. The "Postgres startup took
XX seconds" message is not very useful because no one pays attention to
those in the python test logs when things are going smoothly, and if you
do wonder about the startup speed, the same information and more can be
found in the compute log.

In the passing, rename it to NeonLocalCli, to reflect that the binary
is called 'neon_local'.
Add wrapper for the 'timeline_import' command, eliminating the last
raw call to the raw_cli() function from tests, except for a few in
test_neon_cli.py which are about testing the 'neon_local' iteself. All
the other calls are now made through the strongly-typed wrapper
functions
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'.
## Problem
We are seeing frequent pageserver startup timelines while it calls
syncfs(). There is an existing fixture that syncs _after_ tests, but not
before the first one. We hypothesize that some failures are happening on
the first test in a job.
## Summary of changes
- extend the existing sync_after_each_test to be a sync between all
tests, including sync'ing before running the first test. That should
remove any ambiguity about whether the sync is happening on the correct
node.
This is an alternative to https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/8957
-- I didn't realize until I saw Alexander's comment on that PR that we
have an existing hook that syncs filesystems and can be extended.

For whatever reason, pg17's WAL pattern seems different from others,
which triggers some flaky behavior within the compaction smoke test.
## Summary of changes
* Run L0 compaction before proceeding with the read benchmark.
* So that we can ensure the num of L0 layers is 0 and test the
compaction behavior only with L1 layers.
We have a threshold for triggering L0 compaction. In some cases, the
test case did not produce enough L0 layers to do a L0 compaction,
therefore leaving the layer map with 3+ L0 layers above the L1 layers.
This increases the average read depth for the timeline.

When endpoint is stopped in immediate mode and started again there is a
chance of old connection delivering some WAL to safekeepers after second
start checked need for sync-safekeepers and thus grabbed basebackup LSN.
It makes basebackup unusable, so compute panics. Avoid flakiness by
waiting for walreceivers on safekeepers to be gone in such cases. A
better way would be to bump term on safekeepers if sync-safekeepers is
skipped, but it needs more infrastructure.

Even with the 100 ms interval, on my laptop the pageserver always
becomes available on second attempt, so this saves about 900 ms at
every test startup.
## Problem
We need to be able to run the regression tests against a cloud-based
Neon staging instance to prepare the migration to the arm architecture.
## Summary of changes
Some tests were modified to work on the cloud instance (i.e. added
passwords, server-side copy changed to client-side, etc)

misc changes split out from #8855
- **allow cloning the request context in a read-only fashion for
background tasks**
- **propagate endpoint and request context through the jwk cache**
- **only allow password based auth for md5 during testing**
- **remove auth info from conn info**
There's currently no way to just start/stop broker from `neon_local`.
This PR
* adds a sub-command
* uses that sub-command from the test suite instead of the pre-existing
Python `subprocess` based approach.

pg_distrib_dir doesn't include the Postgres version and only depends
on env variables which cannot change during a test run, so it can be
marked as session-scoped. Similarly, the platform cannot change during
a test run.
There was another copy of it in utils.py. The only difference is that
the version in utils.py tolerates files that are concurrently
removed. That seems fine for the few callers in neon_fixtures.py too.
This adds preliminary PG17 support to Neon, based on RC1 / 2024-09-04

Makes it consistent with the "timeline create" and "timeline import"
commands, which allowed you to pass the timeline id as argument. This
also makes it unnecessary to parse the timeline ID from the output in
the python function that calls it.
The tenant ID was not actually generated here but in NeonEnvBuilder.
And the "neon_local init" command hasn't been able to generate the
initial tenant since 8712e1899e anyway.
I wish it worked, but it's been broken for a long time, so let's admit
defeat and remove it.
The idea of sharing the same pageserver and safekeeper environment
between tests is still sound, and it could save a lot of time in our
CI. We should perhaps put some time into doing that, but we're better
off starting from scratch than trying to make TEST_SHARED_FIXTURES
work in its current form.
For control-plane managed tenants, we have the page in the admin console
that lists all tenants on a specific pageserver. But for
storage-controller managed ones, we don't have that functionality for
now.
## Summary of changes
Adds an API that lists all shards on a given node (intention + observed)

When walproposer observes now higher term it restarts instead of
crashing whole compute with PANIC; this avoids compute crash after
term_bump call. After successfull election we're still checking
last_log_term of the highest given vote to ensure basebackup is good,
and PANIC otherwise.

## Problem
We want to do AZ aware scheduling, but don't have enough metadata.
## Summary of changes
Introduce a `preferred_az_id` concept for each managed tenant shard.
In a future PR, the scheduler will use this as a soft preference.
The idea is to try and keep the shard attachments within the same AZ.
Under the assumption that the compute was placed in the correct AZ,
this reduces the chances of cross AZ trafic from between compute and PS.
In terms of code changes we:
1. Add a new nullable `preferred_az_id` column to the `tenant_shards`
table. Also include an in-memory counterpart.
2. Populate the preferred az on tenant creation and shard splits.
3. Add an endpoint which allows to bulk-set preferred AZs.
(3) gives us the migration path. I'll write a script which queries the
cplane db in the region and sets the preferred az of all shards with an
active compute to the AZ of said compute. For shards without an active compute,
I'll use the AZ of the currently attached pageserver
since this is what cplane uses now to schedule computes.
## Problem
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/8852 introduced a new nullable
column for the `nodes` table: `availability_zone_id`
## Summary of changes
* Make neon local and the test suite always provide an az id
* Make the az id field in the ps registration request mandatory
* Migrate the column to non-nullable and adjust in memory state
accordingly
* Remove the code that was used to populate the az id for pre-existing
nodes
Sometimes, the benchmarks fail to start up pageserver in 10s without any
obvious reason. Benchmarks run sequentially on otherwise idle runners.
Try running `sync(2)` after each bench to force a cleaner slate.
Implement this via:
- SYNC_AFTER_EACH_TEST environment variable enabled autouse fixture
- autouse fixture seems to be outermost fixture, so it works as expected
- set SYNC_AFTER_EACH_TEST=true for benchmarks in build_and_test
workflow

This PR simplifies the pageserver configuration parsing as follows:
* introduce the `pageserver_api::config::ConfigToml` type
* implement `Default` for `ConfigToml`
* use serde derive to do the brain-dead leg-work of processing the toml
document
* use `serde(default)` to fill in default values
* in `pageserver` crate:
* use `toml_edit` to deserialize the pageserver.toml string into a
`ConfigToml`
* `PageServerConfig::parse_and_validate` then
* consumes the `ConfigToml`
* destructures it exhaustively into its constituent fields
* constructs the `PageServerConfig`
The rules are:
* in `ConfigToml`, use `deny_unknown_fields` everywhere
* static default values go in `pageserver_api`
* if there cannot be a static default value (e.g. which default IO
engine to use, because it depends on the runtime), make the field in
`ConfigToml` an `Option`
* if runtime-augmentation of a value is needed, do that in
`parse_and_validate`
* a good example is `virtual_file_io_engine` or `l0_flush`, both of
which need to execute code to determine the effective value in
`PageServerConf`
The benefits:
* massive amount of brain-dead repetitive code can be deleted
* "unused variable" compile-time errors when removing a config value,
due to the exhaustive destructuring in `parse_and_validate`
* compile-time errors guide you when adding a new config field
Drawbacks:
* serde derive is sometimes a bit too magical
* `deny_unknown_fields` is easy to miss
Future Work / Benefits:
* make `neon_local` use `pageserver_api` to construct `ConfigToml` and
write it to `pageserver.toml`
* This provides more type safety / coompile-time errors than the current
approach.
### Refs
Fixes#3682
### Future Work
* `remote_storage` deser doesn't reject unknown fields
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/8915
* clean up `libs/pageserver_api/src/config.rs` further
* break up into multiple files, at least for tenant config
* move `models` as appropriate / refine distinction between config and
API models / be explicit about when it's the same
* use `pub(crate)` visibility on `mod defaults` to detect stale values
We currently do not record safekeepers in the storage controller
database. We want to migrate timelines across safekeepers eventually, so
start recording the safekeepers on deploy.

Endpoint implementation sends msg to manager requesting to do the
reset. Manager stops current partial backup upload task if it exists and
performs the reset.
Also slightly tweak eviction condition: all full segments before
flush_lsn must be uploaded (and committed) and there must be only one
segment left on disk (partial). This allows to evict timelines which
started not on the first segment and didn't fill the whole
segment (previous condition wasn't good because last_removed_segno was
0).

## Problem
Neon local set-up does not inject an az id in `metadata.json`. See real
change in https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/8852.
## Summary of changes
We piggyback on the existing `availability_zone` pageserver
configuration in order to avoid making neon local even more complex.
The test is very rudimentary, it only checks that before and after
tenant deletion, we can run `scan_metadata` for the safekeeper node
kind. Also, we don't actually expect any uploaded data, for that we
don't have enough WAL (needs to create at least one S3-uploaded file,
the scrubber doesn't recognize partial files yet).
The `scan_metadata` scrubber subcommand is extended to support either
specifying a database connection string, which was previously the only
way, and required a database to be present, or specifying the timeline
information manually via json. This is ideal for testing scenarios
because in those, the number of timelines is usually limited,
but it is involved to spin up a database just to write the timeline
information.
## Problem
In order to build AZ aware scheduling, the storage controller needs to
know what AZ pageservers are in.
Related https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/8848
## Summary of changes
This patch set adds a new nullable column to the `nodes` table:
`availability_zone_id`. The node registration
request is extended to include the AZ id (pageservers already have this
in their `metadata.json` file).
If the node is already registered, then we update the persistent and
in-memory state with the provided AZ.
Otherwise, we add the node with the AZ to begin with.
A couple assumptions are made here:
1. Pageserver AZ ids are stable
2. AZ ids do not change over time
Once all pageservers have a configured AZ, we can remove the optionals
in the code and make the database column not nullable.
Part of #8130, closes#8719.
## Problem
Currently, vectored blob io only coalesce blocks if they are immediately
adjacent to each other. When we switch to Direct IO, we need a way to
coalesce blobs that are within the dio-aligned boundary but has gap
between them.
## Summary of changes
- Introduces a `VectoredReadCoalesceMode` for `VectoredReadPlanner` and
`StreamingVectoredReadPlanner` which has two modes:
- `AdjacentOnly` (current implementation)
- `Chunked(<alignment requirement>)`
- New `ChunkedVectorBuilder` that considers batching `dio-align`-sized
read, the start and end of the vectored read will respect
`stx_dio_offset_align` / `stx_dio_mem_align` (`vectored_read.start` and
`vectored_read.blobs_at.first().start_offset` will be two different
value).
- Since we break the assumption that blobs within single `VectoredRead`
are next to each other (implicit end offset), we start to store blob end
offsets in the `VectoredRead`.
- Adapted existing tests to run in both `VectoredReadCoalesceMode`.
- The io alignment can also be live configured at runtime.
