## Problem
Follow up to https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/8335, to improve
observability of how many evict/restores we are doing.
## Summary of changes
- Add `safekeeper_eviction_events_started_total` and
`safekeeper_eviction_events_completed_total`, with a "kind" label of
evict or restore. This gives us rates, and also ability to calculate how
many are in progress.
- Generalize SafekeeperMetrics test type to use the same helpers as
pageserver, and enable querying any metric.
- Read the new metrics at the end of the eviction test.
- Add /snapshot http endpoing streaming tar archive timeline contents up to
flush_lsn.
- Add check that term doesn't change, corresponding test passes now.
- Also prepares infra to hold off WAL removal during the basebackup.
- Sprinkle fsyncs to persist the pull_timeline result.

Add support for backing up partial segments to remote storage. Disabled
by default, can be enabled with `--partial-backup-enabled`.
Safekeeper timeline has a background task which is subscribed to
`commit_lsn` and `flush_lsn` updates. After the partial segment was
updated (`flush_lsn` was changed), the segment will be uploaded to S3 in
about 15 minutes.
The filename format for partial segments is
`Segment_Term_Flush_Commit_skNN.partial`, where:
- `Segment` – the segment name, like `000000010000000000000001`
- `Term` – current term
- `Flush` – flush_lsn in hex format `{:016X}`, e.g. `00000000346BC568`
- `Commit` – commit_lsn in the same hex format
- `NN` – safekeeper_id, like `1`
The full object name example:
`000000010000000000000002_2_0000000002534868_0000000002534410_sk1.partial`
Each safekeeper will keep info about remote partial segments in its
control file. Code updates state in the control file before doing any S3
operations. This way control file stores information about all
potentially existing remote partial segments and can clean them up after
uploading a newer version.
Closes#6336
This PR contains the first version of a
[FoundationDB-like](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4fFDFbi3toc)
simulation testing for safekeeper and walproposer.
### desim
This is a core "framework" for running determenistic simulation. It
operates on threads, allowing to test syncronous code (like walproposer).
`libs/desim/src/executor.rs` contains implementation of a determenistic
thread execution. This is achieved by blocking all threads, and each
time allowing only a single thread to make an execution step. All
executor's threads are blocked using `yield_me(after_ms)` function. This
function is called when a thread wants to sleep or wait for an external
notification (like blocking on a channel until it has a ready message).
`libs/desim/src/chan.rs` contains implementation of a channel (basic
sync primitive). It has unlimited capacity and any thread can push or
read messages to/from it.
`libs/desim/src/network.rs` has a very naive implementation of a network
(only reliable TCP-like connections are supported for now), that can
have arbitrary delays for each package and failure injections for
breaking connections with some probability.
`libs/desim/src/world.rs` ties everything together, to have a concept of
virtual nodes that can have network connections between them.
### walproposer_sim
Has everything to run walproposer and safekeepers in a simulation.
`safekeeper.rs` reimplements all necesary stuff from `receive_wal.rs`,
`send_wal.rs` and `timelines_global_map.rs`.
`walproposer_api.rs` implements all walproposer callback to use
simulation library.
`simulation.rs` defines a schedule – a set of events like `restart <sk>`
or `write_wal` that should happen at time `<ts>`. It also has code to
spawn walproposer/safekeeper threads and provide config to them.
### tests
`simple_test.rs` has tests that just start walproposer and 3 safekeepers
together in a simulation, and tests that they are not crashing right
away.
`misc_test.rs` has tests checking more advanced simulation cases, like
crashing or restarting threads, testing memory deallocation, etc.
`random_test.rs` is the main test, it checks thousands of random seeds
(schedules) for correctness. It roughly corresponds to running a real
python integration test in an environment with very unstable network and
cpu, but in a determenistic way (each seed results in the same execution
log) and much much faster.
Closes#547

Implement API for cloning a single timeline inside a safekeeper. Also
add API for calculating a sha256 hash of WAL, which is used in tests.
`/copy` API works by copying objects inside S3 for all but the last
segments, and the last segments are copied on-disk. A special temporary
directory is created for a timeline, because copy can take a lot of
time, especially for large timelines. After all files segments have been
prepared, this directory is mounted to the main tree and timeline is
loaded to memory.
Some caveats:
- large timelines can take a lot of time to copy, because we need to
copy many S3 segments
- caller should wait for HTTP call to finish indefinetely and don't
close the HTTP connection, because it will stop the process, which is
not continued in the background
- `until_lsn` must be a valid LSN, otherwise bad things can happen
- API will return 200 if specified `timeline_id` already exists, even if
it's not a copy
- each safekeeper will try to copy S3 segments, so it's better to not
call this API in-parallel on different safekeepers
There is double buffering in remote_storage and in pageserver for 8KiB
in using `tokio::io::copy` to read `BufReader<ReaderStream<_>>`.
Switches downloads and uploads to use `Stream<Item =
std::io::Result<Bytes>>`. Caller and only caller now handles setting up
buffering. For reading, `Stream<Item = ...>` is also a `AsyncBufRead`,
so when writing to a file, we now have `tokio::io::copy_buf` reading
full buffers and writing them to `tokio::io::BufWriter` which handles
the buffering before dispatching over to `tokio::fs::File`.
Additionally implements streaming uploads for azure. With azure
downloads are a bit nicer than before, but not much; instead of one huge
vec they just hold on to N allocations we got over the wire.
This PR will also make it trivial to switch reading and writing to
io-uring based methods.
Cc: #5563.
Fixes#4689 by replacing all of `std::Path` , `std::PathBuf` with
`camino::Utf8Path`, `camino::Utf8PathBuf` in
- pageserver
- safekeeper
- control_plane
- libs/remote_storage

Add essential safekeeper and pageserver::walreceiver metrics. Mostly
counters, such as the number of received queries, broker messages,
removed WAL segments, or connection switches events in walreceiver.
Also logs broker push loop duration.
Add HTTP endpoint to initialize safekeeper timeline from peer
safekeepers. This is useful for initializing new safekeeper to replace
failed safekeeper. Not fully "correct" in all cases, but should work in
most.
This code is not suitable for production workloads but can be tested on
staging to get started. New endpoint is separated from usual cases and
should not affect anything if no one explicitly uses a new endpoint. We
can rollback this commit in case of issues.
TCP_KEEPALIVE is not enabled by default, so this prevents hanged up connections
in case of abrupt client termination. Add 'closed' flag to PostgresBackendReader
and pass it during handles join to prevent attempts to read from socket if we
errored out previously -- now with timeouts this is a common situation.
It looks like
2023-04-10T18:08:37.493448Z INFO {cid=68}:WAL
receiver{ttid=59f91ad4e821ab374f9ccdf918da3a85/16438f99d61572c72f0c7b0ed772785d}:
terminated: timed out
Presumably fixes https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/3971
- Add support for splitting async postgres_backend into read and write halfes.
Safekeeper needs this for bidirectional streams. To this end, encapsulate
reading-writing postgres messages to framed.rs with split support without any
additional changes (relying on BufRead for reading and BytesMut out buffer for
writing).
- Use async postgres_backend throughout safekeeper (and in proxy auth link
part).
- In both safekeeper COPY streams, do read-write from the same thread/task with
select! for easier error handling.
- Tidy up finishing CopyBoth streams in safekeeper sending and receiving WAL
-- join split parts back catching errors from them before returning.
Initially I hoped to do that read-write without split at all, through polling
IO:
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/3522
However that turned out to be more complicated than I initially expected
due to 1) borrow checking and 2) anon Future types. 1) required Rc<Refcell<...>>
which is Send construct just to satisfy the checker; 2) can be workaround with
transmute. But this is so messy that I decided to leave split.
This fixes all kinds of problems related to missing params,
like broken timestamps (due to `integer_datetimes`).
This solution is not ideal, but it will help. Meanwhile,
I'm going to dedicate some time to improving connection machinery.
Note that this **does not** fix problems with passing certain parameters
in a reverse direction, i.e. **from client to compute**. This is a
separate matter and will be dealt with in an upcoming PR.
* etcd-client is not updated, since we plan to replace it with another client and the new version errors with some missing prost library error
* clap had released another major update that requires changing every CLI declaration again, deserves a separate PR
Creates new `pageserver_api` and `safekeeper_api` crates to serve as the
shared dependencies. Should reduce both recompile times and cold compile
times.
Decreases the size of the optimized `neon_local` binary: 380M -> 179M.
No significant changes for anything else (mostly as expected).
Separate task is launched for each timeline and stopped when timeline doesn't
need offloading. Decision who offloads is done through etcd leader election;
currently there is no pre condition for participating, that's a TODO.
neon_local and tests infrastructure for remote storage in safekeepers added,
along with the test itself.
