This introduces a new 'neon_tenant: NeonTestTenant' fixture, which can
be used instead of a NeonEnv. All tests using 'neon_tenant' share the
same NeonEnv. NeonTestTenant provides many of the same members as
NeonEnv, like 'create_branch', 'endpoints' etc. But not the ones that
deal with storage, nor create_tenant.
I converted some existing tests to use the new fixture. More could be
converted, if we add more features to NeonTestTenant:
- Many tests grab the pageserver HTTP client and call GC / compact
functions on the pageserver. They are per-tenant operations, so they
could safely be done one a shared pageserver too.
- Some tests use failpoints to add delays or pauses to various operations
in the pageserver. If the failpoints were tenant- or timeline-scoped,
they could be used on a shared pageserver too.
- Some tests print intoduce errors in the pageserver logs. They set
allowlists for those error messages, because any unexpected errors
in the logs cause the test to fail. If the allowlist was tenant- or
timleine-scoped, we could allow those tests to share the env.
- Some tests use helper functions like check_restored_datadir_content or
fork_at_current_lsn, which take a NeonEnv as argument. They could use
NeonTestTenant instead (or become methods in NeonTestTenant).
- Some tests want to use extra tenant config for the initial tenant. We
could expand the neon_tenant fixture to allow that. (Perhaps introduce
NeonTestTenantBuilder which allows setting config before creating the
initial tenant)
- Some tests create multiple tenants. That could be allowed in a
shared env, as long as we track which tenants belong to the test.

## Problem
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/8588 implemented the mechanism
for storage controller
leadership transfers. However, there's no tests that exercise the
behaviour.
## Summary of changes
1. Teach `neon_local` how to handle multiple storage controller
instances. Each storage controller
instance gets its own subdirectory (`storage_controller_1, ...`).
`storage_controller start|stop` subcommands
have also been extended to optionally accept an instance id.
2. Add a storage controller proxy test fixture. It's a basic HTTP server
that forwards requests from pageserver
and test env to the currently configured storage controller.
3. Add a test which exercises storage controller leadership transfer.
4. Finally fix a couple bugs that the test surfaced
## Problem
Shard splits worked, but weren't safe against failures (e.g. node crash
during split) yet.
Related: #6676
## Summary of changes
- Introduce async rwlocks at the scope of Tenant and Node:
- exclusive tenant lock is used to protect splits
- exclusive node lock is used to protect new reconciliation process that
happens when setting node active
- exclusive locks used in both cases when doing persistent updates (e.g.
node scheduling conf) where the update to DB & in-memory state needs to
be atomic.
- Add failpoints to shard splitting in control plane and pageserver
code.
- Implement error handling in control plane for shard splits: this
detaches child chards and ensures parent shards are re-attached.
- Crash-safety for storage controller restarts requires little effort:
we already reconcile with nodes over a storage controller restart, so as
long as we reset any incomplete splits in the DB on restart (added in
this PR), things are implicitly cleaned up.
- Implement reconciliation with offline nodes before they transition to
active:
- (in this context reconciliation means something like
startup_reconcile, not literally the Reconciler)
- This covers cases where split abort cannot reach a node to clean it
up: the cleanup will eventually happen when the node is marked active,
as part of reconciliation.
- This also covers the case where a node was unavailable when the
storage controller started, but becomes available later: previously this
allowed it to skip the startup reconcile.
- Storage controller now terminates on panics. We only use panics for
true "should never happen" assertions, and these cases can leave us in
an un-usable state if we keep running (e.g. panicking in a shard split).
In the unlikely event that we get into a crashloop as a result, we'll
rely on kubernetes to back us off.
- Add `test_sharding_split_failures` which exercises a variety of
failure cases during shard split.
Refactor tests to have less globals.
This will allow to hopefully write more complex tests for our new metric
collection requirements in #5297. Includes reverted work from #4761
related to test globals.

## Problem
All tests have already been parametrised by Postgres version and build
type (to have them distinguishable in the Allure report), but despite
it, it's anyway required to have DEFAULT_PG_VERSION and BUILD_TYPE env
vars set to corresponding values, for example to
run`test_timeline_deletion_with_files_stuck_in_upload_queue[release-pg14-local_fs]`
test it's required to set `DEFAULT_PG_VERSION=14` and
`BUILD_TYPE=release`.
This PR makes the test framework pick up parameters from the test name
itself.
## Summary of changes
- Postgres version and build type related fixtures now are
function-scoped (instead of being sessions scoped before)
- Deprecate `--pg-version` argument in favour of DEFAULT_PG_VERSION env
variable (it's easier to parse)
- GitHub autocomment now includes only one command with all the failed
tests + runs them in parallel
This PR adds tests runs on Postgres 15 and created unified Allure report
with results for all tests.
- Split `.github/actions/allure-report` into
`.github/actions/allure-report-store` and
`.github/actions/allure-report-generate`
- Add debug or release pytest parameter for all tests (depending on
`BUILD_TYPE` env variable)
- Add Postgres version as a pytest parameter for all tests (depending on
`DEFAULT_PG_VERSION` env variable)
- Fix `test_wal_restore` and `restore_from_wal.sh` to support path with
`[`/`]` in it (fixed by applying spellcheck to the script and fixing all
warnings), `restore_from_wal_archive.sh` is deleted as unused.
- All known failures on Postgres 15 marked with xfail
This PR adds a plugin that automatically reruns (up to 3 times) flaky
tests. Internally, it uses data from `TEST_RESULT_CONNSTR` database and
`pytest-rerunfailures` plugin.
As the first approximation we consider the test flaky if it has failed on
the main branch in the last 10 days.
Flaky tests are fetched by `scripts/flaky_tests.py` script (it's
possible to use it in a standalone mode to learn which tests are flaky),
stored to a JSON file, and then the file is passed to the pytest plugin.
We were getting a warning like this from the pg_regress tests:
=================== warnings summary ===================

------------------ Benchmark results -------------------
To fix, reorder the imports in conftest.py. I'm not sure what exactly
the problem was or why the order matters, but the warning is gone and
that's good enough for me.
- The 'pageserver' fixture now sets up the repository and starts up
the Page Server automatically. In other words, the 'pageserver'
fixture provides a Page Server that's up and running and ready to
use in tests.
- The 'pageserver' fixture now also creates a branch called 'empty',
right after initializing the repository. By convention, all the
tests start by createing a new branch off 'empty' for the test. This
allows running all the tests against the same Page Server
concurrently. (I haven't tested that though. pytest doensn't
provide an option to run tests in parallel but there are extensions
for that.)
- Remove the 'zen_simple' fixture. Now that 'pageserver' provides
server that's up and running, it's pretty simple to use the
'pageserver' and 'postgres' fixtures directly.
- Don't assume host name or ports in the tests. They now use the
fields in the fixtures for that. That allows assigning the ports
dynamically, making it possible to run multiple page servers in
parallel, or running the tests in parallel with another page
server. This commit still hard codes the Page Server's port in the
fixture, though, so more work is needed to actually make it
possible.
- I made some changes to the 'postgres' fixture in commit 532918e13d,
which broke the other tests. Fix them.
- Divide the tests into two "batches" of roughly equal runtime, which
can be run in parallel
- Merge the 'test_file' and 'test_filter' options in CircleCI config
into one 'test_selection' option, for simplicity.
