Most of the work here was done on the postgres side. There's more
information in the commit message there.
(see: 04cfa326a5)
On the WAL acceptor side, we're now expecting 'START_WAL_PUSH' to
initialize the WAL keeper protocol. Everything else is mostly the same,
with the only real difference being that protocol messages are now
discrete CopyData messages sent over the postgres protocol.
For the sake of documentation, the full set of these messages is:
<- recv: START_WAL_PUSH query
<- recv: server info from postgres (type `ServerInfo`)
-> send: walkeeper info (type `SafeKeeperInfo`)
<- recv: vote info (type `RequestVote`)
if node id mismatch:
-> send: self node id (type `NodeId`); exit
-> send: confirm vote (with node id) (type `NodeId`)
loop:
<- recv: info and maybe WAL block (type `SafeKeeperRequest` + bytes)
(break loop if done)
-> send: confirm receipt (type `SafeKeeperResponse`)
Current state with authentication.
Page server validates JWT token passed as a password during connection
phase and later when performing an action such as create branch tenant
parameter of an operation is validated to match one submitted in token.
To allow access from console there is dedicated scope: PageServerApi,
this scope allows access to all tenants. See code for access validation in:
PageServerHandler::check_permission.
Because we are in progress of refactoring of communication layer
involving wal proposer protocol, and safekeeper<->pageserver. Safekeeper
now doesn’t check token passed from compute, and uses “hardcoded” token
passed via environment variable to communicate with pageserver.
Compute postgres now takes token from environment variable and passes it
as a password field in pageserver connection. It is not passed through
settings because then user will be able to retrieve it using pg_settings
or SHOW ..
I’ve added basic test in test_auth.py. Probably after we add
authentication to remaining network paths we should enable it by default
and switch all existing tests to use it.
This patch has been extracted from #348, where it became unnecessary
after we had decided that we didn't want to measure anything inside
PostgresBackend.
IMO the change is good enough to make its way into the codebase,
even though it brings nothing "new" to the code.
this patch adds support for tenants. This touches mostly pageserver.
Directory layout on disk is changed to contain new layer of indirection.
Now path to particular repository has the following structure: <pageserver workdir>/tenants/<tenant
id>. Tenant id has the same format as timeline id. Tenant id is included in
pageserver commands when needed. Also new commands are available in
pageserver: tenant_list, tenant_create. This is also reflected CLI.
During init default tenant is created and it's id is saved in CLI config,
so following commands can use it without extra options. Tenant id is also included in
compute postgres configuration, so it can be passed via ServerInfo to
safekeeper and in connection string to pageserver.
For more info see docs/multitenancy.md.
It used to be the case that walkeeper's background thread
failed to recognize the end of stream (EOF) signaled by the
`Ok(None)` result of `FeMessage::read`.
Now postgres_backend communicates with the client, passing queries to the
provided handler; we have two currently, for wal_acceptor and pageserver.
Now BytesMut is again used for writing data to avoid manual message length
calculation.

06f96f9600 Do not transfer WAL to computation nodes: use pg_resetwal for node startup
As well as some older changes related to storing CLOG and MultiXact data as
"pseudorelation" in the page server.
With this revert, we go back to the situtation that when you create a
new compute node, we ship *all* the WAL from the beginning of time to
the compute node. Obviously we need a better solution, like the code
that this reverts. But per discussion with Konstantin and Stas, this
stuff was still half-baked, and it's better for it to live in a branch
for now, until it's more complete and has gone through some review.
Move ReceiveWalConn into its own file. Shuffle constants around so they
are close to the protocol they're associated with, or move them into
postgres_ffi if they seem to be global constants.
It may be more robust to use the TcpStream::peek function, so do all
protocol peeking before creating the protocol object. This reveals the
next cleanup step: rename Connection, since it's no longer the parent of
SendWalConn. Now we peek at the first bytes and choose which kind of
connection object to create.
Serialize objects directly to the stream. This allows us to remove a
bunch of buffer management code, along with the NewSerializer trait that
was a temporary bridge between the old code and the new.
The pieces are:
base Connection
SendWal
ReplicationHandler
There are lots of other changes here:
- Put the replication reader in a background thread; this gets rid
of some hacks with nonblocking mode.
- Stop manually buffering input data; use BufReader instead.
- Use BytesMut a lot less; use Read/Write traits where possible.
If we try to read a few bytes at a time, we will perform a lot more
syscalls than necessary. Wrap the socket in a BufReader, which will
buffer bytes as needed.
This patch started as an effort to support CLI working against remote
pageserver, but turned into a pretty big refactoring.
* CLI now does not look into repository files directly. New commands
'branch_create' and 'identify_system' were introduced into page_service to
support that.
* Branch management that was scattered between local_env and
zenith/main.rs is moved into pageserver/branches.rs. That code could better fit
in Repository/Timeline impl, but I'll leave that for a different patch.
* All tests-related code from local_env went into integration_tests/src/lib.rs as an
extension to PostgresNode trait.
* Paths-generating functions were concentrated around corresponding config
types (LocalEnv and PageserverConf).
