Instead of fixed during the start of replication. To this end, create
term_flush_lsn watch channel similar to commit_lsn one. This allows to continue
recovery streaming if new data appears.
Slightly refactors init: now load_tenant_timelines is also async to properly
init the timeline, but to keep global map lock sync we just acquire it anew for
each timeline.
Recovery task itself is just a stub here.

Part 1 of 2, for moving the file cache onto disk.
Because VMs are created by the control plane (and that's where the
filesystem for the file cache is defined), we can't rely on any kind of
synchronization between releases, so the change needs to be
feature-gated (kind of), with the default remaining the same for now.

## Problem
We still need to rerun some builds manually because flaky tests weren't
detected automatically.
I found two reasons for it:
- If a test is flaky on a particular build type, on a particular
Postgres version, there's a high chance that this test is flaky on all
configurations, but we don't automatically detect such cases.
- We detect flaky tests only on the main branch, which requires manual
retrigger runs for freshly made flaky tests.
Both of them are fixed in the PR.
## Summary of changes
- Spread flakiness of a single test to all configurations
- Detect flaky tests in all branches (not only in the main)
- Look back only at 7 days of test history (instead of 10)
## Problem
I saw these things while working on #5111.
## Summary of changes
* Add a comment explaining why we use `Vec::leak` instead of
`Vec::into_boxed_slice` plus `Box::leak`.
* Add another comment explaining what `valid` is doing, it wasn't very
clear before.
* Add a function `set_usage_count` to not set it directly.
Before this patch, when dropping an EphemeralFile, we'd scan the entire
`slots` to proactively evict its pages (`drop_buffers_for_immutable`).
This was _necessary_ before #4994 because the page cache was a
write-back cache: we'd be deleting the EphemeralFile from disk after,
so, if we hadn't evicted its pages before that, write-back in
`find_victim` wouldhave failed.
But, since #4994, the page cache is a read-only cache, so, it's safe
to keep read-only data cached. It's never going to get accessed again
and eventually, `find_victim` will evict it.
The only remaining advantage of `drop_buffers_for_immutable` over
relying on `find_victim` is that `find_victim` has to do the clock
page replacement iterations until the count reaches 0,
whereas `drop_buffers_for_immutable` can kick the page out right away.
However, weigh that against the cost of `drop_buffers_for_immutable`,
which currently scans the entire `slots` array to find the
EphemeralFile's pages.
Alternatives have been proposed in #5122 and #5128, but, they come
with their own overheads & trade-offs.
Also, the real reason why we're looking into this piece of code is
that we want to make the slots rwlock async in #5023.
Since `drop_buffers_for_immutable` is called from drop, and there
is no async drop, it would be nice to not have to deal with this.
So, let's just stop doing `drop_buffers_for_immutable` and observe
the performance impact in benchmarks.
Unrelated fixes noticed while integrating #4938.
- Stop leaking future layers in remote storage
- We schedule extra index_part uploads if layer name to be removed was
not actually present
Starts `postgres` in cgroup directly from `compute_ctl` instead of from
`vm-builder`. This is required because the `vm-monitor` cannot be in the
cgroup it is managing. Otherwise, it itself would be frozen when
freezing the cgroup.
Requires https://github.com/neondatabase/cloud/pull/6331, which adds the
`AUTOSCALING` environment variable letting `compute_ctl` know to start
`postgres` in the cgroup.
Requires https://github.com/neondatabase/autoscaling/pull/468, which
prevents `vm-builder` from starting the monitor and putting postgres in
a cgroup. This will require a `VM_BUILDER_VERSION` bump.
## Problem
The `metadata_bytes` field of IndexPart required explicit
deserialization & error checking everywhere it was used -- there isn't
anything special about this structure that should prevent it from being
serialized & deserialized along with the rest of the structure.
## Summary of changes
- Implement Serialize and Deserialize for TimelineMetadata
- Replace IndexPart::metadata_bytes with a simpler `metadata`, that can
be used directly.

## Problem
We were returning Pending when a connection had a notice/notification
(introduced recently in #5020). When returning pending, the runtime
assumes you will call `cx.waker().wake()` in order to continue
processing.
We weren't doing that, so the connection task would get stuck
## Summary of changes
Don't return pending. Loop instead
## Problem
We want to make `read_blk` an async function, but outside of
`async_trait`, which allocates, and nightly features, we can't use async
fn's in traits.
## Summary of changes
* Remove all uses of `BlockReader::read_blk` in favour of using block
cursors, at least where the type of the `BlockReader` is behind a
generic
* Introduce a `BlockReaderRef` enum that lists all implementors of
`BlockReader::read_blk`.
* Remove `BlockReader::read_blk` and move its implementations into
inherent functions on the types instead.
We don't turn `read_blk` into an async fn yet, for that we also need to
modify the page cache. So this is a preparatory PR, albeit an important
one.
Part of #4743.
## Problem
The previous arguments have the monitor listen on `localhost`, which the
informant can connect to since it's also in the VM, but which the agent
cannot. Also, the port is wrong.
## Summary of changes
Listen on `0.0.0.0:10301`
## 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.
Current implementation first calls `load_layer_map`, which loads all
local layers, cleans up files, leave cleaning up stuff to "second
function". Then the "second function" is finally called, it does not do
the cleanup and some of the first functions setup can torn down. "Second
function" is actually both `reconcile_with_remote` and
`create_remote_layers`.
This change makes it a bit more verbose but in one phase with the
following sub-steps:
1. scan the timeline directory
2. delete extra files
- now including on-demand download files
- fixes#3660
3. recoincile the two sources of layers (directory, index_part)
4. rename_to_backup future layers, short layers
5. create the remaining as layers
Needed by #4938.
It was also noticed that this is blocking code in an `async fn` so just
do it in a `spawn_blocking`, which should be healthy for our startup
times. Other effects includes hopefully halving of `stat` calls; extra
calls which were not done previously are now done for the future layers.

## Problem
Currently, anything that uses backoff::retry will delay the join of its
task by however long its backoff sleep is, multiplied by its max
retries.
Whenever we call a function that sleeps, we should be passing in a
CancellationToken.
## Summary of changes
- Add a `Cancel` type to backoff::retry that wraps a CancellationToken
and an error `Fn` to generate an error if the cancellation token fires.
- In call sites that already run in a `task_mgr` task, use
`shutdown_token()` to provide the token. In other locations, use a dead
`CancellationToken` to satisfy the interface, and leave a TODO to fix it
up when we broaden the use of explicit cancellation tokens.

Upload Test Remote Extensions (#4792)
switched to using the release tag instead of `latest`, but,
the `promote-images` job only uploads `latest` to the prod ECR.
The switch to using release tag was good in principle, but,
it broke the release pipeline. So, switch release pipeline
back to using `latest`.
Note that a proper fix should abandon use of `:latest` tag
at all: currently, if a `main` pipeline runs concurrently
with a `release` pipeline, the `release` pipeline may end
up using the `main` pipeline's images.

Accidentially giving is_incremental=true for ImageLayers costs a lot of
debugging time. Removes all API which would allow to do that. They can
easily be restored later *when needed*.
Split off from #4938.
When doing global queries in VictoriaMetrics, the per-timeline
histograms make us run into cardinality limits.
We don't want to give them up just yet because we don't
have an alternative for drilling down on timeline-specific
performance issues.
So, add a pre-aggregated histogram and add observations to it
whenever we add observations to the per-timeline histogram.
While we're at it, switch to using a strummed enum for the operation
type names.
#4938 will make on-demand download of layers in compaction possible, so
it's not suitable for our "policy" of no `spawn_blocking(|| ...
Handle::block_on(async { spawn_blocking(...).await })` because this
poses a clear deadlock risk. Nested spawn_blockings are because of the
download using `tokio::fs::File`.
- Remove `spawn_blocking` from caller of `compact_level0_phase1`
- Remove `Handle::block_on` from `compact_level0_phase1` (indentation
change)
- Revert to `AsLayerDesc::layer_desc` usage temporarily (until it
becomes field access in #4938)

## Problem
There are some common types that we pass into tenants and timelines as
we construct them, such as remote storage and the broker client.
Currently the list is small, but this is likely to grow -- the deletion
queue PR (#4960) pushed some methods to the point of clippy complaining
they had too many args, because of the extra deletion queue client being
passed around.
There are some shared objects that currently aren't passed around
explicitly because they use a static `once_cell` (e.g.
CONCURRENT_COMPACTIONS), but as we add more resource management and
concurreny control over time, it will be more readable & testable to
pass a type around in the respective Resources object, rather than to
coordinate via static objects. The `Resources` structures in this PR
will make it easier to add references to central coordination functions,
without having to rely on statics.
## Summary of changes
- For `Tenant`, the `broker_client` and `remote_storage` are bundled
into `TenantSharedResources`
- For `Timeline`, the `remote_client` is wrapped into
`TimelineResources`.
Both of these structures will get an additional deletion queue member in
#4960.
## Problem
IndexPart contains two redundant lists of layer names: a set of the
names, and then a map of name to metadata.
We already required that all the layers in `timeline_layers` are also in
`layers_metadata`, in `initialize_with_current_remote_index_part`, so if
there were any index_part.json files in the field that relied on these
sets being different, they would already be broken.
## Summary of changes
`timeline_layers` is made private and no longer read at runtime. It is
still serialized, but not deserialized.
`disk_consistent_lsn` is also made private, as this field only exists
for convenience of humans reading the serialized JSON.
This prepares us to entirely remove `timeline_layers` in a future
release, once this change is fully deployed, and therefore no
pageservers are trying to read the field.
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.
I'm still a bit nervous about attach -> crash case. But it should work.
(unlike case with timeline). Ideally would be cool to cover this with
test.
This continues tradition of adding bool flags for Tenant::set_stopping.
Probably lifecycle project will help with fixing it.
## Problem
Before, DeltaLayer dumping (via `cargo run --release -p pagectl --
print-layer-file` ) would crash as one can't call `Handle::block_on` in
an async executor thread.
## Summary of changes
Avoid the problem by using `DeltaLayerInner::load_keys` to load the keys
into RAM (which we already do during compaction), and then load the
values one by one during dumping.
