Follow-up of #9234 to give hyper 1.0 the version-free name, and the
legacy version of hyper the one with the version number inside. As we
move away from hyper 0.14, we can remove the `hyper0` name piece by
piece.
Part of #9255
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
In proxy I switched to a leaky-bucket impl using the GCRA algorithm. I
figured I could share the code with pageserver and remove the
leaky_bucket crate dependency with some very basic tokio timers and
queues for fairness.
The underlying algorithm should be fairly clear how it works from the
comments I have left in the code.
---
In benchmarking pageserver, @problame found that the new implementation
fixes a getpage throughput discontinuity in pageserver under the
`pagebench get-page-latest-lsn` benchmark with the clickbench dataset
(`test_perf_olap.py`).
The discontinuity is that for any of `--num-clients={2,3,4}`, getpage
throughput remains 10k.
With `--num-clients=5` and greater, getpage throughput then jumps to the
configured 20k rate limit.
With the changes in this PR, the discontinuity is gone, and we scale
throughput linearly to `--num-clients` until the configured rate limit.

Part of [Epic: Bypass PageCache for user data
blocks](https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/7386).
# Problem
`InMemoryLayer` still uses the `PageCache` for all data stored in the
`VirtualFile` that underlies the `EphemeralFile`.
# Background
Before this PR, `EphemeralFile` is a fancy and (code-bloated) buffered
writer around a `VirtualFile` that supports `blob_io`.
The `InMemoryLayerInner::index` stores offsets into the `EphemeralFile`.
At those offset, we find a varint length followed by the serialized
`Value`.
Vectored reads (`get_values_reconstruct_data`) are not in fact vectored
- each `Value` that needs to be read is read sequentially.
The `will_init` bit of information which we use to early-exit the
`get_values_reconstruct_data` for a given key is stored in the
serialized `Value`, meaning we have to read & deserialize the `Value`
from the `EphemeralFile`.
The L0 flushing **also** needs to re-determine the `will_init` bit of
information, by deserializing each value during L0 flush.
# Changes
1. Store the value length and `will_init` information in the
`InMemoryLayer::index`. The `EphemeralFile` thus only needs to store the
values.
2. For `get_values_reconstruct_data`:
- Use the in-memory `index` figures out which values need to be read.
Having the `will_init` stored in the index enables us to do that.
- View the EphemeralFile as a byte array of "DIO chunks", each 512 bytes
in size (adjustable constant). A "DIO chunk" is the minimal unit that we
can read under direct IO.
- Figure out which chunks need to be read to retrieve the serialized
bytes for thes values we need to read.
- Coalesce chunk reads such that each DIO chunk is only read once to
serve all value reads that need data from that chunk.
- Merge adjacent chunk reads into larger
`EphemeralFile::read_exact_at_eof_ok` of up to 128k (adjustable
constant).
3. The new `EphemeralFile::read_exact_at_eof_ok` fills the IO buffer
from the underlying VirtualFile and/or its in-memory buffer.
4. The L0 flush code is changed to use the `index` directly, `blob_io`
5. We can remove the `ephemeral_file::page_caching` construct now.
The `get_values_reconstruct_data` changes seem like a bit overkill but
they are necessary so we issue the equivalent amount of read system
calls compared to before this PR where it was highly likely that even if
the first PageCache access was a miss, remaining reads within the same
`get_values_reconstruct_data` call from the same `EphemeralFile` page
were a hit.
The "DIO chunk" stuff is truly unnecessary for page cache bypass, but,
since we're working on [direct
IO](https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/8130) and
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/8719 specifically, we need
to do _something_ like this anyways in the near future.
# Alternative Design
The original plan was to use the `vectored_blob_io` code it relies on
the invariant of Delta&Image layers that `index order == values order`.
Further, `vectored_blob_io` code's strategy for merging IOs is limited
to adjacent reads. However, with direct IO, there is another level of
merging that should be done, specifically, if multiple reads map to the
same "DIO chunk" (=alignment-requirement-sized and -aligned region of
the file), then it's "free" to read the chunk into an IO buffer and
serve the two reads from that buffer.
=> https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/8719
# Testing / Performance
Correctness of the IO merging code is ensured by unit tests.
Additionally, minimal tests are added for the `EphemeralFile`
implementation and the bit-packed `InMemoryLayerIndexValue`.
Performance testing results are presented below.
All pref testing done on my M2 MacBook Pro, running a Linux VM.
It's a release build without `--features testing`.
We see definitive improvement in ingest performance microbenchmark and
an ad-hoc microbenchmark for getpage against InMemoryLayer.

# Rollout
This PR changes the code in-place and is not gated by a feature flag.
## Problem
We lack a rust bench for the inmemory layer and delta layer write paths:
it is useful to benchmark these components independent of postgres & WAL
decoding.
Related: https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/8452
## Summary of changes
- Refactor DeltaLayerWriter to avoid carrying a Timeline, so that it can
be cleanly tested + benched without a Tenant/Timeline test harness. It
only needed the Timeline for building `Layer`, so this can be done in a
separate step.
- Add `bench_ingest`, which exercises a variety of workload "shapes"
(big values, small values, sequential keys, random keys)
- Include a small uncontroversial optimization: in `freeze`, only
exhaustively walk values to assert ordering relative to end_lsn in debug
mode.
These benches are limited by drive performance on a lot of machines, but
still useful as a local tool for iterating on CPU/memory improvements
around this code path.

## Problem
We recently added a "visibility" state to layers, but nothing
initializes it.
Part of:
- #8398
## Summary of changes
- Add a dependency on `range-set-blaze`, which is used as a fast
incrementally updated alternative to KeySpace. We could also use this to
replace the internals of KeySpaceRandomAccum if we wanted to. Writing a
type that does this kind of "BtreeMap & merge overlapping entries" thing
isn't super complicated, but no reason to write this ourselves when
there's a third party impl available.
- Add a function to layermap to calculate visibilities for each layer
- Add a function to Timeline to call into layermap and then apply these
visibilities to the Layer objects.
- Invoke the calculation during startup, after image layer creations,
and when removing branches. Branch removal and image layer creation are
the two ways that a layer can go from Visible to Covered.
- Add unit test & benchmark for the visibility calculation
- Expose `pageserver_visible_physical_size` metric, which should always
be <= `pageserver_remote_physical_size`.
- This metric will feed into the /v1/utilization endpoint later: the
visible size indicates how much space we would like to use on this
pageserver for this tenant.
- When `pageserver_visible_physical_size` is greater than
`pageserver_resident_physical_size`, this is a sign that the tenant has
long-idle branches, which result in layers that are visible in
principle, but not used in practice.
This does not keep visibility hints up to date in all cases:
particularly, when creating a child timeline, any previously covered
layers will not get marked Visible until they are accessed.
Updates after image layer creation could be implemented as more of a
special case, but this would require more new code: the existing depth
calculation code doesn't maintain+yield the list of deltas that would be
covered by an image layer.
## Performance
This operation is done rarely (at startup and at timeline deletion), so
needs to be efficient but not ultra-fast.
There is a new `visibility` bench that measures runtime for a synthetic
100k layers case (`sequential`) and a real layer map (`real_map`) with
~26k layers.
The benchmark shows runtimes of single digit milliseconds (on a ryzen
7950). This confirms that the runtime shouldn't be a problem at startup
(as we already incur S3-level latencies there), but that it's slow
enough that we definitely shouldn't call it more often than necessary,
and it may be worthwhile to optimize further later (things like: when
removing a branch, only bother scanning layers below the branchpoint)

## Problem
- Resident memory on long running pageserver processes tends to climb:
memory fragmentation is suspected.
- Total resident memory may be a limiting factor for running on smaller
nodes.
## Summary of changes
- As a low-energy experiment, switch the pageserver to use jemalloc (not
a net-new dependency, proxy already use it)
- Decide at end of week whether to revert before next release.
Extracted from https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/7375. We assume
everything >= 0x80 are metadata keys. AUX file keys are part of the
metadata keys, and we use `0x90` as the prefix for AUX file keys.
The AUX file encoding is described in the code comment. We use xxhash128
as the hash algorithm. It seems to be portable according to the
introduction,
> xxHash is an Extremely fast Hash algorithm, processing at RAM speed
limits. Code is highly portable, and produces hashes identical across
all platforms (little / big endian).
...though whether the Rust version follows the same convention is
unknown and might need manual review of the library. Anyways, we can
always change the hash algorithm before rolling it out in
staging/end-user, and I made a quick decision to use xxhash here because
it generates 128b hash + portable. We can save the discussion of which
hash algorithm to use later.

## Problem
Follows: https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/7182
- Sufficient concurrent writes could OOM a pageserver from the size of
indices on all the InMemoryLayer instances.
- Enforcement of checkpoint_period only happened if there were some
writes.
Closes: https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/6916
## Summary of changes
- Add `ephemeral_bytes_per_memory_kb` config property. This controls the
ratio of ephemeral layer capacity to memory capacity. The weird unit is
to enable making the ratio less than 1:1 (set this property to 1024 to
use 1MB of ephemeral layers for every 1MB of RAM, set it smaller to get
a fraction).
- Implement background layer rolling checks in
Timeline::compaction_iteration -- this ensures we apply layer rolling
policy in the absence of writes.
- During background checks, if the total ephemeral layer size has
exceeded the limit, then roll layers whose size is greater than the mean
size of all ephemeral layers.
- Remove the tick() path from walreceiver: it isn't needed any more now
that we do equivalent checks from compaction_iteration.
- Add tests for the above.

Problem
-------
Before this PR, we were using
`tokio_epoll_uring::thread_local_system()`,
which panics on tokio_epoll_uring::System::launch() failure
As we've learned in [the
past](https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/6373#issuecomment-1905814391),
some older Linux kernels account io_uring instances as locked memory.
And while we've raised the limit in prod considerably, we did hit it
once on 2024-03-11 16:30 UTC.
That was after we enabled tokio-epoll-uring fleet-wide, but before
we had shipped release-5090 (c6ed86d3d0)
which did away with the last mass-creation of tokio-epoll-uring
instances as per
commit 3da410c8fe
Author: Christian Schwarz <christian@neon.tech>
Date: Tue Mar 5 10:03:54 2024 +0100
tokio-epoll-uring: use it on the layer-creating code paths (#6378)
Nonetheless, it highlighted that panicking in this situation is probably
not ideal, as it can leave the pageserver process in a semi-broken
state.
Further, due to low sampling rate of Prometheus metrics, we don't know
much about the circumstances of this failure instance.
Solution
--------
This PR implements a custom thread_local_system() that is
pageserver-aware
and will do the following on failure:
- dump relevant stats to `tracing!`, hopefully they will be useful to
understand the circumstances better
- if it's the locked memory failure (or any other ENOMEM): abort() the
process
- if it's ENOMEM, retry with exponential back-off, capped at 3s.
- add metric counters so we can create an alert
This makes sense in the production environment where we know that
_usually_, there's ample locked memory allowance available, and we know
the failure rate is rare.
Rebased version of #5234, part of #6768
This consists of three parts:
1. A refactoring and new contract for implementing and testing
compaction.
The logic is now in a separate crate, with no dependency on the
'pageserver' crate. It defines an interface that the real pageserver
must implement, in order to call the compaction algorithm. The interface
models things like delta and image layers, but just the parts that the
compaction algorithm needs to make decisions. That makes it easier unit
test the algorithm and experiment with different implementations.
I did not convert the current code to the new abstraction, however. When
compaction algorithm is set to "Legacy", we just use the old code. It
might be worthwhile to convert the old code to the new abstraction, so
that we can compare the behavior of the new algorithm against the old
one, using the same simulated cases. If we do that, have to be careful
that the converted code really is equivalent to the old.
This inclues only trivial changes to the main pageserver code. All the
new code is behind a tenant config option. So this should be pretty safe
to merge, even if the new implementation is buggy, as long as we don't
enable it.
2. A new compaction algorithm, implemented using the new abstraction.
The new algorithm is tiered compaction. It is inspired by the PoC at PR
#4539, although I did not use that code directly, as I needed the new
implementation to fit the new abstraction. The algorithm here is less
advanced, I did not implement partial image layers, for example. I
wanted to keep it simple on purpose, so that as we add bells and
whistles, we can see the effects using the included simulator.
One difference to #4539 and your typical LSM tree implementations is how
we keep track of the LSM tree levels. This PR doesn't have a permanent
concept of a level, tier or sorted run at all. There are just delta and
image layers. However, when compaction starts, we look at the layers
that exist, and arrange them into levels, depending on their shapes.
That is ephemeral: when the compaction finishes, we forget that
information. This allows the new algorithm to work without any extra
bookkeeping. That makes it easier to transition from the old algorithm
to new, and back again.
There is just a new tenant config option to choose the compaction
algorithm. The default is "Legacy", meaning the current algorithm in
'main'. If you set it to "Tiered", the new algorithm is used.
3. A simulator, which implements the new abstraction.
The simulator can be used to analyze write and storage amplification,
without running a test with the full pageserver. It can also draw an SVG
animation of the simulation, to visualize how layers are created and
deleted.
To run the simulator:
cargo run --bin compaction-simulator run-suite

The rust stdlib uses the efficient `posix_spawn` by default.
However, before this PR, pageserver used `pre_exec()` in our
`close_fds()` ext trait.
This PR moves the work that `close_fds()` did to the walredo C code.
I verified manually using `gdb` that we're now forking out the walredo
process using `posix_spawn`.

## Problem
Secondary mode tenants need a manifest of what to download. Ultimately
this will be some kind of heat-scored set of layers, but as a robust
first step we will simply use the set of resident layers: secondary
tenant locations will aim to match the on-disk content of the attached
location.
## Summary of changes
- Add heatmap types representing the remote structure
- Add hooks to Tenant/Timeline for generating these heatmaps
- Create a new `HeatmapUploader` type that is external to `Tenant`, and
responsible for walking the list of attached tenants and scheduling
heatmap uploads.
Notes to reviewers:
- Putting the logic for uploads (and later, secondary mode downloads)
outside of `Tenant` is an opinionated choice, motivated by:
- Enable future smarter scheduling of operations, e.g. uploading the
stalest tenant first, rather than having all tenants compete for a fair
semaphore on a first-come-first-served basis. Similarly for downloads,
we may wish to schedule the tenants with the hottest un-downloaded
layers first.
- Enable accessing upload-related state without synchronization (it
belongs to HeatmapUploader, rather than being some Mutex<>'d part of
Tenant)
- Avoid further expanding the scope of Tenant/Timeline types, which are
already among the largest in the codebase
- You might reasonably wonder how much of the uploader code could be a
generic job manager thing. Probably some of it: but let's defer pulling
that out until we have at least two users (perhaps secondary downloads
will be the second one) to highlight which bits are really generic.
Compromises:
- Later, instead of using digests of heatmaps to decide whether anything
changed, I would prefer to avoid walking the layers in tenants that
don't have changes: tracking that will be a bit invasive, as it needs
input from both remote_timeline_client and Layer.
Remove handcrafted TenantConf deserialization code. Use
`serde_path_to_error` to include the field which failed parsing. Leaves
the duplicated TenantConf in pageserver and models, does not touch
PageserverConf handcrafted deserialization.
Error change:
- before change: "configure option `checkpoint_distance` cannot be
negative"
- after change: "`checkpoint_distance`: invalid value: integer `-1`,

Write collected metrics to disk to recover previously sent metrics on
restart.
Recover the previously collected metrics during startup, send them over
at right time
- send cached synthetic size before actual is calculated
- when `last_record_lsn` rolls back on startup
- stay at last sent `written_size` metric
- send `written_size_delta_bytes` metric as 0
Add test support: stateful verification of events in python tests.
Fixes: #5206
Cc: #5175 (loggings, will be enhanced in follow-up)
## Problem
The `EphemeralFile::write_blob` function accesses the page cache
internally. We want to require `async` for these accesses in #5023.
## Summary of changes
This removes the implementaiton of the `BlobWriter` trait for
`EphemeralFile` and turns the `write_blob` function into an inherent
function. We can then make it async as well as the `push_bytes`
function. We move the `SER_BUFFER` thread-local into the
`InMemoryLayerInner` so that the same buffer can be accessed by
different threads as the async is (potentially) moved between threads.
Part of #4743, preparation for #5023.
Adds in a barrier for the duration of the `Tenant::shutdown`.
`pageserver_shutdown` will join this await, `detach`es and `ignore`s
will not.
Fixes#4429.

Introduce read timeouts to our `page_service` connections. Without read
timeouts, we essentially leak connections.
This is a port of #3995. Split the refactorings to the other PR: #4097.
Fixes#4028.
This patch adds a pageserver-global background loop that evicts layers
in response to a shortage of available bytes in the $repo/tenants
directory's filesystem.
The loop runs periodically at a configurable `period`.
Each loop iteration uses `statvfs` to determine filesystem-level space
usage. It compares the returned usage data against two different types
of thresholds. The iteration tries to evict layers until app-internal
accounting says we should be below the thresholds. We cross-check this
internal accounting with the real world by making another `statvfs` at
the end of the iteration. We're good if that second statvfs shows that
we're _actually_ below the configured thresholds. If we're still above
one or more thresholds, we emit a warning log message, leaving it to the
operator to investigate further.
There are two thresholds:
- `max_usage_pct` is the relative available space, expressed in percent
of the total filesystem space. If the actual usage is higher, the
threshold is exceeded.
- `min_avail_bytes` is the absolute available space in bytes. If the
actual usage is lower, the threshold is exceeded.
The iteration evicts layers in LRU fashion with a reservation of up to
`tenant_min_resident_size` bytes of the most recent layers per tenant.
The layers not part of the per-tenant reservation are evicted
least-recently-used first until we're below all thresholds. The
`tenant_min_resident_size` can be overridden per tenant as
`min_resident_size_override` (bytes).
In addition to the loop, there is also an HTTP endpoint to perform one
loop iteration synchronous to the request. The endpoint takes an
absolute number of bytes that the iteration needs to evict before
pressure is relieved. The tests use this endpoint, which is a great
simplification over setting up loopback-mounts in the tests, which would
be required to test the statvfs part of the implementation. We will rely
on manual testing in staging to test the statvfs parts.
The HTTP endpoint is also handy in emergencies where an operator wants
the pageserver to evict a given amount of space _now. Hence, it's
arguments documented in openapi_spec.yml. The response type isn't
documented though because we don't consider it stable. The endpoint
should _not_ be used by Console but it could be used by on-call.

To untie cyclic dependency between sync and async versions of postgres_backend,
copy QueryError and some logging/error routines to postgres_backend.rs. This is
temporal glue to make commits smaller, sync version will be dropped by the
upcoming commit completely.
This patch adds a per-timeline periodic task that executes an eviction
policy. The eviction policy is configurable per tenant.
Two policies exist:
- NoEviction (the default one)
- LayerAccessThreshold
The LayerAccessThreshold policy examines the last access timestamp per
layer in the layer map and evicts the layer if that last access is
further in the past than a configurable threshold value.
This policy kind is evaluated periodically at a configurable period.
It logs a summary statistic at `info!()` or `warn!()` level, depending
on whether any evictions failed.
This feature has no explicit killswitch since it's off by default.
This patch adds basic access statistics for historic layers
and exposes them in the management API's `LayerMapInfo`.
We record the accesses in the `{Delta,Image}Layer::load()` function
because it's the common path of
* page_service (`Timline::get_reconstruct_data()`)
* Compaction (`PersistentLayer::iter()` and `PersistentLayer::key_iter()`)
The stats survive residence status changes, and record these as well.
When scraping the layer map endpoint to record its evolution over time,
one must account for stat resets because they are in-memory only and
will reset on pageserver restart.
Use the launch timestamp header added by (#3527) to identify pageserver restarts.

It was nice to have and useful at the time, but unfortunately the method
used to gather the profiling data doesn't play nicely with 'async'. PR
#3228 will turn 'get_page_at_lsn' function async, which will break the
profiling support. Let's remove it, and re-introduce some kind of
profiling later, using some different method, if we feel like we need it
again.
The synchronous 'tar' crate has required us to use block_in_place and
SyncIoBridge to work together with the async I/O in the client
connection. Switch to 'tokio-tar' crate that uses async I/O natively.
As part of this, move the CopyDataWriter implementation to
postgres_backend_async.rs. Even though it's only used in one place
currently, it's in principle generally applicable whenever you want to
use COPY out.
Unfortunately we cannot use the 'tokio-tar' as it is: the Builder
implementation requires the writer to have 'static lifetime. So we
have to use a modified version without that requirement. The 'static
lifetime was required just for the Drop implementation that writes
the end-of-archive sections if the Builder is dropped without calling
`finish`. But we don't actually want that behavior anyway; in fact
we had to jump through some hoops with the AbortableWrite hack to skip
those. With the modified version of 'tokio-tar' without that Drop
implementation, we don't need AbortableWrite either.

I looked at "cargo tree" output and noticed that through various
dependencies, we are depending on both native-tls and rustls. We have
tried to standardize on rustls for everything, but dependencies on
native-tls have crept in recently. One such dependency came from
'reqwest' with default features in pageserver, used for
consumption_metrics. Another dependency was from 'sentry'. Both
'reqwest' and 'sentry' use native-tls by default, but can use 'rustls'
if compiled with the right feature flags.
Add new background job to collect billing metrics for each tenant and
send them to the HTTP endpoint.
Metrics are cached, so we don't send non-changed metrics.
Add metric collection config parameters:
metric_collection_endpoint (default None, i.e. disabled)
metric_collection_interval (default 60s)
Add test_metric_collection.py to test metric collection
and sending to the mocked HTTP endpoint.
Use port distributor in metric_collection test
review fixes: only update cache after metrics were send successfully, simplify code
disable metric collection if metric_collection_endpoint is not provided in config
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.
The code in this change was extracted from PR #2595, i.e., Heikki’s draft
PR for on-demand download.

===============================================================================
storage_sync module rewrite
===========================
The storage_sync code is rewritten. New module name is storage_sync2, mostly to
make a more reasonable git diff.
The updated block comment in storage_sync2.rs describes the changes quite well,
so, we will not reproduce that comment here. TL;DR:
- Global sync queue and RemoteIndex are replaced with per-timeline
`RemoteTimelineClient` structure that contains a queue for UploadOperations
to ensure proper ordering and necessary metadata.
- Before deleting local layer files, wait for ongoing UploadOps to finish
(wait_completion()).
- Download operations are not queued and executed immediately.
Changes to Tenant Loading
=========================
Initial sync part was rewritten as well and represents the other major change
that serves as a foundation for on-demand downloads. Routines for attaching and
loading shifted directly to Tenant struct and now are asynchronous and spawned
into the background.
Since this patch doesn’t introduce on-demand download of layers we fully
synchronize with the remote during pageserver startup. See details in
`Timeline::reconcile_with_remote` and `Timeline::download_missing`.
Changes to Tenant States
========================
The “Active” state has lost its “background_jobs_running: bool” member. That
variable indicated whether the GC & Compaction background loops are spawned or
not. With this patch, they are now always spawned. Unit tests (#[test]) use the
TenantConf::{gc_period,compaction_period} to disable their effect (15db566).
This patch introduces a new tenant state, “Attaching”. A tenant that is being
attached starts in this state and transitions to “Active” once it finishes
download.
The `GET /tenant` endpoints returns `TenantInfo::has_in_progress_downloads`. We
derive the value for that field from the tenant state now, to remain
backwards-compatible with cloud.git. We will remove that field when we switch
to on-demand downloads.
Changes to Timeline States
==========================
The TimelineInfo::awaits_download field is now equivalent to the tenant being
in Attaching state. Previously, download progress was tracked per timeline.
With this change, it’s only tracked per tenant. When on-demand downloads
arrive, the field will be completely obsolete. Deprecation is tracked in
isuse #2930.
Crash-safe & Resumable Tenant Attach
====================================
Previously, the attach operation was not persistent. I.e., when tenant attach
was interrupted by a crash, the pageserver would not continue attaching after
pageserver restart. In fact, the half-finished tenant directory on disk would
simply be skipped by tenant_mgr because it lacked the metadata file (it’s
written last). This patch introduces an “attaching” marker file inside that is
present inside the tenant directory while the tenant is attaching. During
pageserver startup, tenant_mgr will resume attach if that file is present. If
not, it assumes that the local tenant state is consistent and tries to load the
tenant. If that fails, the tenant transitions into Broken state.
Tenant size information is gathered by using existing parts of
`Tenant::gc_iteration` which are now separated as
`Tenant::refresh_gc_info`. `Tenant::refresh_gc_info` collects branch
points, and invokes `Timeline::update_gc_info`; nothing was supposed to
be changed there. The gathered branch points (through Timeline's
`GcInfo::retain_lsns`), `GcInfo::horizon_cutoff`, and
`GcInfo::pitr_cutoff` are used to build up a Vec of updates fed into the
`libs/tenant_size_model` to calculate the history size.
The gathered information is now exposed using `GET
/v1/tenant/{tenant_id}/size`, which which will respond with the actual
calculated size. Initially the idea was to have this delivered as tenant
background task and exported via metric, but it might be too
computationally expensive to run it periodically as we don't yet know if
the returned values are any good.
Adds one new metric:
- pageserver_storage_operations_seconds with label `logical_size`
- separating from original `init_logical_size`
Adds a pageserver wide configuration variable:
- `concurrent_tenant_size_logical_size_queries` with default 1
This leaves a lot of TODO's, tracked on issue #2748.
