## Problem
> bullseye-backports has reached end-of-life and is no longer supported
or updated
From: https://backports.debian.org/Instructions/
This causes the compute-node image build to fail with the following
error:
```
0.099 Err:5 http://deb.debian.org/debian bullseye-backports Release
0.099 404 Not Found [IP: 146.75.122.132 80]
...
1.293 E: The repository 'http://deb.debian.org/debian bullseye-backports Release' does not have a Release file.
```
## Summary of changes
- Use archive version of `bullseye-backports`
## Problem
This is a prerequisite for neondatabase/neon#12575 to keep all things
relevant to `build-tools` image in a single directory
## Summary of changes
- Rename `build_tools/` to `build-tools/`
- Move `build-tools.Dockerfile` to `build-tools/Dockerfile`
## Problem
Extension tests were previously run sequentially, resulting in
unnecessary wait time and underutilization of available CPU cores.
## Summary of changes
Tests are now executed in a customizable number of parallel threads
using separate database branches. This reduces overall test time by
approximately 50% (e.g., on my laptop, parallel test lasts 173s, while
sequential one lasts 340s) and increases the load on the pageserver,
providing better test coverage.

This doesn't do anything interesting yet, but demonstrates linking Rust
code to the neon Postgres extension, so that we can review and test
drive just the build process changes independently.
Add support to transport syslogs over TLS. Since TLS params essentially
require passing host and port separately, add a boolean flag to the
configuration template and also use the same `action` format for
plaintext logs. This allows seamless transition.
The plaintext host:port is picked from `AUDIT_LOGGING_ENDPOINT` (as
earlier) and from `AUDIT_LOGGING_TLS_ENDPOINT`. The TLS host:port is
used when defined and non-empty.
`remote_endpoint` is split separately to hostname and port as required
by `omfwd` module.
Also the address parsing and config content generation are split to more
testable functions with basic tests added.
## Problem
`compute_ctl` should support gRPC base backups.
Requires #12111.
Requires #12243.
Touches #11926.
## Summary of changes
Support `grpc://` connstrings for `compute_ctl` base backups.
The build-tools image contains various build tools and dependencies,
mostly Rust-related. The compute image build used it to build
compute_ctl and a few other little rust binaries that are included in
the compute image. However, for extensions built in Rust (pgrx), the
build used a different layer which installed the rust toolchain using
rustup.
Switch to using the same rust toolchain for both pgrx-based extensions
and compute_ctl et al. Since we don't need anything else from the
build-tools image, I switched to using the toolchain installed with
rustup, and eliminated the dependency to build-tools altogether. The
compute image build no longer depends on build-tools.
Note: We no longer use 'mold' for linking compute_ctl et al, since mold
is not included in the build-deps-with-cargo layer. We could add it
there, but it doesn't seem worth it. I proposed stopping using mold
altogether in https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/10735, but that
was rejected because 'mold' is faster for incremental builds. That
doesn't matter much for docker builds however, since they're not
incremental, and the compute binaries are not as large as the storage
server binaries anyway.
Create a separate stage for downloading the Rust toolchain for pgrx, so
that it can be cached independently of the pg-build layer. Before this,
the 'pg-build-nonroot=with-cargo' layer was unnecessarily rebuilt every
time there was a change in PostgreSQL sources. Furthermore, this allows
using the same cached layer for building the compute images of all
Postgres versions.
## Problem
The checksum for eigen (a dependency for onnxruntime) has changed which
breaks compute image build.
## Summary of changes
- Add a patch for onnxruntime which backports changes from
f57db79743
(we keep the current version)
Ref https://github.com/microsoft/onnxruntime/issues/24861
## Problem
We don't currently run tests for PostGIS in our test environment.
## Summary of Changes
- Added PostGIS test support for PostgreSQL v16 and v17
- Configured different PostGIS versions based on PostgreSQL version:
- PostgreSQL v17: PostGIS 3.5.0
- PostgreSQL v14/v15/v16: PostGIS 3.3.3
- Added necessary test scripts and configurations
This ensures our PostgreSQL implementation remains compatible with this
widely-used extension.

## Problem
We should use the full host name for computes, according to
https://github.com/neondatabase/cloud/issues/26005 , but now a truncated
host name is used.
## Summary of changes
The URL for REMOTE_ONNX is rewritten using the FQDN.
## Problem
We didn't test the h3 extension in our test suite.
## Summary of changes
Added tests for h3 and h3-postgis extensions
Includes upgrade test for h3

We want to control library load order so that our compiled binaries are
picked up before others from system packages. The previous solution
allowed the system libraries to load before ours.

## Problem
Currently the setup for `anon` v2 in the compute image downloads the
latest version of the extension. This can be problematic as on a compute
start/restart it can download a version that is newer than what we have
tested and potentially break things, hence not giving us the ability to
control when the extension is updated.
We were also using `v2.2.0`, which is not ready for production yet and
has been clarified by the maintainer.
Additional context:
https://gitlab.com/dalibo/postgresql_anonymizer/-/issues/530
## Summary of changes
Changed the URL from which we download the `anon` extension to point to
`v2.1.0` instead of `latest`.
## Problem
Two `rust-extensions-build-pgrx14` layers were added independently in
two different PRs, and the layers are exactly the same
## Summary of changes
- Remove one of `rust-extensions-build-pgrx14` layers
Update the compute Dockerfile to use a new version of pgrag. The new
version of pgrag uses the latest pgrx, and has a fix that terminates
background workers on postmaster exit.
## Problem
We currently don't run end-to-end tests for PostgreSQL extensions on our
cloud infrastructure, which means we might miss problems that only occur
in a real cloud environment.
## Summary of changes
- Added a workflow to run extension tests against a cloud staging
instance
- Set up proper project configuration for extension testing
- Implemented test execution with appropriate environment settings
- Added error handling and reporting for test failures

## Problem
The `pg_embedding` extension has been deprecated and can cause issues
with recent changes such as with
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/10973
Issue: `PG:2025-04-03 15:39:25.498 GMT
ttid=a4de5bee50225424b053dc64bac96d87/d6f3891b8f968458b3f7edea58fb3c6f
sqlstate=58P01 [15526] ERROR: could not load library
"/usr/local/lib/embedding.so": /usr/local/lib/embedding.so: undefined
symbol: SetLastWrittenLSNForRelation`
## Summary of changes
Removed `pg_embedding` extension from the compute image.
## Problem
Some useful debugging tools are missing from the compute image and
sometimes it's impossible to install them because memory is tightly
packed.
## Summary of changes
Add the following tools: iproute2, lsof, screen, tcpdump.
The other changes come from sorting the packages alphabetically.
```bash
$ docker image inspect ghcr.io/neondatabase/vm-compute-node-v16:7555 | jaq '.[0].Size'
1389759645
$ docker image inspect ghcr.io/neondatabase/vm-compute-node-v16:14083125313 | jaq '.[0].Size'
1396051101
$ echo $((1396051101 - 1389759645))
6291456
```
## Problem
Docker Hub has new rate limits coming up, and to avoid problems coming
with those we're switching to GHCR.
## Summary of changes
- Push images to GHCR initially and distribute them from there
- Use images from GHCR in docker-compose
Closes: https://github.com/neondatabase/cloud/issues/22998
If control-plane reports that TLS should be used, load the certificates
(and watch for updates), make sure postgres use them, and detects
updates.
Procedure:
1. Load certificates
2. Reconfigure postgres/pgbouncer
3. Loop on a timer until certificates have loaded
4. Go to 1
Notes:
1. We only run this procedure if requested on startup by control plane.
2. We needed to compile pgbouncer with openssl enabled
3. Postgres doesn't allow tls keys to be globally accessible - must be
read only to the postgres user. I couldn't convince the autoscaling team
to let me put this logic into the VM settings, so instead compute_ctl
will copy the keys to be read-only by postgres.
4. To mitigate a race condition, we also verify that the key matches the
cert.
Setup pgaudit and pgauditlogtofile extensions
in compute_ctl when the ComputeAuditLogLevel is
set to 'hipaa'.
See cloud PR https://github.com/neondatabase/cloud/pull/24568
Add rsyslog setup for compute_ctl.
Spin up a rsyslog server in the compute VM,
and configure it to send logs to the endpoint
specified in AUDIT_LOGGING_ENDPOINT env.
## Problem
In multi-character keys, the GIN index creates a CRC Hash of the first 3
bytes of the key.
The hash can have the first bit to be set or unset, needing to have a
consistent representation
of `char` across architectures for consistent results. GIN stores these
keys by their hashes
which determines the order in which the keys are obtained from the GIN
index.
By default, chars are signed in x86 and unsigned in arm, leading to
inconsistent behavior across different platform architectures. Adding
the `-fsigned-char` flag to the GCC compiler forces chars to be treated
as signed across platforms, ensuring the ordering in which the keys are
obtained consistent.
## Summary of changes
Added `-fsigned-char` to the `CFLAGS` to force GCC to use signed chars
across platforms.
Added a test to check this across platforms.
Fixes: https://github.com/neondatabase/cloud/issues/23199
## Problem
We use `docker cp` to copy the files required for the extension tests
now.
It causes problems if we run older images with the newer source tree.
## Summary of changes
Copying the files was moved to the compute Dockerfile.
Plv8 consists of two parts:
1. the V8 engine, which is built from vendored sources, and
2. the PostgreSQL extension.
Split those into two separate steps in the Dockerfile. The first step
doesn't need any PostgreSQL sources or any other files from the neon
repository, just the build tools and the upstream plv8 sources. Use the
build-deps image as the base for that step, so that the layer can be
cached and doesn't need to be rebuilt every time. This is worthwhile
because the V8 build takes a very long time.
It clashed with pg_mooncake
This is the same as the hotfix #10908 , but for the main branch, to keep
the release and main branches in sync. In particular, we don't want to
accidentally revert this temporary fix, if we cut a new release from
main.
## Problem
The nightly test discovered problems in the extensions upgrade test.
1. `PLv8` has different versions on PGv17 and PGv16 and a different test
set, which was not implemented correctly
[sample](https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/actions/runs/13382330475/job/37372930271)
2. The same for `semver`
[sample](https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/actions/runs/13382330475/job/37372930017)
3. `pgtap` interfered with the other tests, e.g. tables, created by
other extensions caused the tests to fail.
## Summary of changes
The discovered problems were fixed.
1. The tests list for `PLv8` is now generated using the original
Makefile
2. The patches for `semver` are now split for PGv16 and PGv17.
3. `pgtap` is being tested in a separate database now.

This replaces the use of the awscli utility. awscli binary is massive,
it added about 200 MB to the docker image size, while the s3 client was
already a dependency so using that is essentially free, as far as binary
size is concerned.
I implemented a simple upload function that tries to keep 10 uploads
going in parallel. I believe that's the default behavior of the "aws s3
sync" command too.
We want to host pg_duckdb (starting with v0.3.1) on Neon.
This PR replaces https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/10350 which
was for older pg_duckdb v0.2.0
Use cases
- faster OLAP queries
- access to datelake files (e.g. parquet) on S3 buckets from Neon
PostgreSQL
Because neon does not provide superuser role to neon customers we need
to grant some additional permissions to neon_superuser:
Note: some grants that we require are already granted to `PUBLIC` in new
release of pg_duckdb
[here](3789e4c509/sql/pg_duckdb--0.2.0--0.3.0.sql (L1054))
```sql
GRANT ALL ON FUNCTION duckdb.install_extension(TEXT) TO neon_superuser;
GRANT ALL ON TABLE duckdb.extensions TO neon_superuser;
GRANT ALL ON SEQUENCE duckdb.extensions_table_seq TO neon_superuser;
```
