## Summary of changes
Previously, when flushing frozen layers, it was split into two
operations: add delta layer to disk + remove frozen layer from memory.
This would cause a short period of time where we will have the same data
both in frozen and delta layer. In this PR, we merge them into one
atomic operation in layer map manager, therefore simplifying the code.
Note that if we decide to create image layers for L0 flush, it will
still be split into two operations on layer map.

As seen in staging logs with some massive compactions
(create_image_layer), in addition to racing with compaction or gc or
even between two invocations to `evict_layer_batch`.
Cc: #4745Fixes: #3851 (organic tech debt reduction)
Solution is not to log the Not Found in such cases; it is perfectly
natural to happen. Route to this is quite long, but implemented two
cases of "race between two eviction processes" which are like our disk
usage based eviction and eviction_task, both have the separate "lets
figure out what to evict" and "lets evict" phases.
Removes a bunch of cases which used `tokio::select` to emulate the
`tokio::time::timeout` function. I've done an additional review on the
cancellation safety of these futures, all of them seem to be
cancellation safe (not that `select!` allows non-cancellation-safe
futures, but as we touch them, such a review makes sense).
Furthermore, I correct a few mentions of a non-existent
`tokio::timeout!` macro in the docs to the `tokio::time::timeout`
function.
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.

## Problem
Compactions might generate files of exactly the same name as before
compaction due to our naming of layer files. This could have already
caused some mess in the system, and is known to cause some issues like
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/4088. Therefore, we now
consider duplicated layers in the post-compaction process to avoid
violating the layer map duplicate checks.

error reported in: https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/4690,
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/4088
## Summary of changes
If a file already exists in the layer map before the compaction, do not
modify the layer map and do not delete the file. The file on disk at
that time should be the new one overwritten by the compaction process.
This PR also adds a test case with a fail point that produces exactly
the same set of files.
This bypassing behavior is safe because the produced layer files have
the same content / are the same representation of the original file.
An alternative might be directly removing the duplicate check in the
layer map, but I feel it would be good if we can prevent that in the
first place.

The `CRITICAL_OPS_BUCKETS` is not useful for getting an accurate
picture of basebackup latency because all the observations
that negatively affect our SLI fall into one bucket, i.e., 100ms-1s.
Use the same buckets as control plane instead.
## Problem
`cargo +nightly doc` is giving a lot of warnings: broken links, naked
URLs, etc.
## Summary of changes
* update the `proc-macro2` dependency so that it can compile on latest
Rust nightly, see https://github.com/dtolnay/proc-macro2/pull/391 and
https://github.com/dtolnay/proc-macro2/issues/398
* allow the `private_intra_doc_links` lint, as linking to something
that's private is always more useful than just mentioning it without a
link: if the link breaks in the future, at least there is a warning due
to that. Also, one might enable
[`--document-private-items`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/commands/cargo-doc.html#documentation-options)
in the future and make these links work in general.
* fix all the remaining warnings given by `cargo +nightly doc`
* make it possible to run `cargo doc` on stable Rust by updating
`opentelemetry` and associated crates to version 0.19, pulling in a fix
that previously broke `cargo doc` on stable:
https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-rust/pull/904
* Add `cargo doc` to CI to ensure that it won't get broken in the
future.
Fixes#2557
## Future work
* Potentially, it might make sense, for development purposes, to publish
the generated rustdocs somewhere, like for example [how the rust
compiler does
it](https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/nightly-rustc/rustc_driver/index.html).
I will file an issue for discussion.
Handle test failures like:
```
AssertionError: assert not ['$ts WARN delete_timeline{tenant_id=X timeline_id=Y}: About to remove 1 files\n']
```
Instead of logging:
```
WARN delete_timeline{tenant_id=X timeline_id=Y}: Found 1 files not bound to index_file.json, proceeding with their deletion
WARN delete_timeline{tenant_id=X timeline_id=Y}: About to remove 1 files
```
For each one operation of timeline deletion, list all unref files with
`info!`, and then continue to delete them with the added spice of
logging the rare/never happening non-utf8 name with `warn!`.
Rationale for `info!` instead of `warn!`: this is a normal operation;
like we had mentioned in `test_import.py` -- basically whenever we
delete a timeline which is not idle.
Rationale for N * (`ìnfo!`|`warn!`): symmetry for the layer deletions;
if we could ever need those, we could also need these for layer files
which are not yet mentioned in `index_part.json`.

Tests cannot be ran without configuring tracing. Split from #4678.
Does not nag about the span checks when there is no subscriber
configured, because then the spans will have no links and nothing can be
checked. Sadly the `SpanTrace::status()` cannot be used for this.
`tracing` is always configured in regress testing (running with
`pageserver` binary), which should be enough.
Additionally cleans up the test code in span checks to be in the test
code. Fixes a `#[should_panic]` test which was flaky before these
changes, but the `#[should_panic]` hid the flakyness.
Rationale for need: Unit tests might not be testing only the public or
`feature="testing"` APIs which are only testable within `regress` tests
so not all spans might be configured.

## Summary of changes
A step towards immutable layer map. I decided to finish the refactor
with this new approach and apply
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/4455 on this patch later.
In this PR, we moved all modifications of the layer map to one place
with semantic operations like `initialize_local_layers`,
`finish_compact_l0`, `finish_gc_timeline`, etc, which is now part
of `LayerManager`. This makes it easier to build new features upon
this PR:
* For immutable storage state refactor, we can simply replace the layer
map with `ArcSwap<LayerMap>` and remove the `layers` lock. Moving
towards it requires us to put all layer map changes in a single place as
in https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/4455.
* For manifest, we can write to manifest in each of the semantic
functions.

This addresses the issue in #4526 by adding a test that reproduces the
race condition that gave rise to the bug (or at least *a* race condition
that gave rise to the same error message), and then implementing a fix
that just prints a message to the log if a file could not been found for
uploading. Even though the underlying race condition is not fixed yet,
this will un-block the upload queue in that situation, greatly reducing
the impact of such a (rare) race.
Fixes#4526.
## Problem
Postgres submodule can be changed unintentionally, and these changes are
easy to miss during the review.
Adding a check that should prevent this from happening, the check fails
`build-neon` job with the following message:
```

Expected postgres-v15 rev to be at '1515151515151515151515151515151515151515', but it is at '1984832c740a7fa0e468bb720f40c525b652835d'
Please update vendors/revisions.json if these changes are intentional.
```
This is an alternative approach to
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/4603
## Summary of changes
- Add `vendor/revisions.json` file with expected revisions
- Add built-time check (to `build-neon` job) that Postgres submodules
match revisions from `vendor/revisions.json`
- A couple of small improvements for logs from
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/4603
- Fixed GitHub autocomment for no tests was run case

For the TOCTOU fixes, the two calls after the `.exists()` both didn't
handle the situation well where the file was deleted after the initial
`.exists()`: one would assume that the path wasn't a file, giving a bad
error, the second would give an accurate error but that's not wanted
either.
We remove both racy `exists` and `is_file` checks, and instead just look
for errors about files not being found.

## Summary of changes
Remove LayerDescriptor and remove `todo!`. At the same time, this PR
adds `AsLayerDesc` trait for all persistent layers and changed
`LayerFileManager` to have a generic type. For tests, we are now using
`LayerObject`, which is a wrapper around `PersistentLayerDesc`.

Before this PR, during shutdown, we'd find naked logs like this one for every active page service connection:
```
2023-07-05T14:13:50.791992Z INFO shutdown request received in run_message_loop
```
This PR
1. adds a peer_addr span field to distinguish the connections in logs
2. sets the tenant_id / timeline_id fields earlier
It would be nice to have `tenant_id` and `timeline_id` directly on
the `page_service_conn_main` span (empty, initially), then set
them at the top of `process_query`.
The problem is that the debug asserts for `tenant_id` and
`timeline_id` presence in the tracing span doesn't support
detecting empty values [1].
So, I'm a bit hesitant about over-using `Span::record`.

We see the following log lines occasionally in prod:
```
kill_and_wait_impl{pid=1983042}: wait successful exit_status=signal: 9 (SIGKILL)
```
This PR makes it easier to find the tenant for the pid, by including the
tenant id as a field in the span.
It started from few config methods that have various orderings and
sometimes use references sometimes not. So I unified path manipulation
methods to always order tenant_id before timeline_id and use referenced
because we dont need owned values.
Similar changes happened to call-sites of config methods.
I'd say its a good idea to always order tenant_id before timeline_id so
it is consistent across the whole codebase.
## Problem
I was reading the code of the page server today and found these minor
things that I thought could be cleaned up.
## Summary of changes
* remove a redundant indentation layer and continue in the flushing loop
* use the builtin `PartialEq` check instead of hand-rolling a `range_eq`
function
* Add a missing `>` to a prominent doc comment
Does three things:
* add a `Display` impl for `LayerFileName` equal to the `short_id`
* based on that, replace the `Layer::short_id` function by a requirement
for a `Display` impl
* use that `Display` impl in the places where the `short_id` and `file_name()` functions were used instead
Fixes#4145
Looking at logs from staging and prod, I found there are a bunch of log
lines without tenant / timeline context.
Manully walk through all task_mgr::spawn lines and fix that using the
least amount of work required.
While doing it, remove some redundant `shutting down` messages.

## Summary of changes
This PR removes all layer objects from LayerMap and moves it to the
timeline struct. In timeline struct, LayerFileManager maps a layer
descriptor to a layer object, and it is stored in the same RwLock as
LayerMap to avoid behavior difference.
Key changes:
* LayerMap now does not have generic, and only stores descriptors.
* In Timeline, we add a new struct called layer mapping.
* Currently, layer mapping is stored in the same lock with layer map.
Every time we retrieve data from the layer map, we will need to map the
descriptor to the actual object.
* Replace_historic is moved to layer mapping's replace, and the return
value behavior is different from before. I'm a little bit unsure about
this part and it would be good to have some comments on that.
* Some test cases are rewritten to adapt to the new interface, and we
can decide whether to remove it in the future because it does not make
much sense now.
* LayerDescriptor is moved to `tests` module and should only be intended
for unit testing / benchmarks.
* Because we now have a usage pattern like "take the guard of lock, then
get the reference of two fields", we want to avoid dropping the
incorrect object when we intend to unlock the lock guard. Therefore, a
new set of helper function `drop_r/wlock` is added. This can be removed
in the future when we finish the refactor.
TODOs after this PR: fully remove RemoteLayer, and move LayerMapping to
a separate LayerCache.

## Problem
Lets keep 500 for unusual stuff that is not considered normal. Came up
during one of the discussions around console logs now seeing this 500's.
## Summary of changes
- Return 409 Conflict instead of 500
- Remove 200 ok status because it is not used anymore
This PR concludes the "async `Layer::get_value_reconstruct_data`"
project.
The problem we're solving is that, before this patch, we'd execute
`Layer::get_value_reconstruct_data` on the tokio executor threads.
This function is IO- and/or CPU-intensive.
The IO is using VirtualFile / std::fs; hence it's blocking.
This results in unfairness towards other tokio tasks, especially under
(disk) load.
Some context can be found at
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/4154
where I suspect (but can't prove) load spikes of logical size
calculation to
cause heavy eviction skew.
Sadly we don't have tokio runtime/scheduler metrics to quantify the
unfairness.
But generally, we know blocking the executor threads on std::fs IO is
bad.
So, let's have this change and watch out for severe perf regressions in
staging & during rollout.
## Changes
* rename `Layer::get_value_reconstruct_data` to
`Layer::get_value_reconstruct_data_blocking`
* add a new blanket impl'd `Layer::get_value_reconstruct_data`
`async_trait` method that runs `get_value_reconstruct_data_blocking`
inside `spawn_blocking`.
* The `spawn_blocking` requires `'static` lifetime of the captured
variables; hence I had to change the data flow to _move_ the
`ValueReconstructState` into and back out of get_value_reconstruct_data
instead of passing a reference. It's a small struct, so I don't expect a
big performance penalty.
## Performance
Fundamentally, the code changes cause the following performance-relevant
changes:
* Latency & allocations: each `get_value_reconstruct_data` call now
makes a short-lived allocation because `async_trait` is just sugar for
boxed futures under the hood
* Latency: `spawn_blocking` adds some latency because it needs to move
the work to a thread pool
* using `spawn_blocking` plus the existing synchronous code inside is
probably more efficient better than switching all the synchronous code
to tokio::fs because _each_ tokio::fs call does `spawn_blocking` under
the hood.
* Throughput: the `spawn_blocking` thread pool is much larger than the
async executor thread pool. Hence, as long as the disks can keep up,
which they should according to AWS specs, we will be able to deliver
higher `get_value_reconstruct_data` throughput.
* Disk IOPS utilization: we will see higher disk utilization if we get
more throughput. Not a problem because the disks in prod are currently
under-utilized, according to node_exporter metrics & the AWS specs.
* CPU utilization: at higher throughput, CPU utilization will be higher.
Slightly higher latency under regular load is acceptable given the
throughput gains and expected better fairness during disk load peaks,
such as logical size calculation peaks uncovered in #4154.
## Full Stack Of Preliminary PRs
This PR builds on top of the following preliminary PRs
1. Clean-ups
* https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/4316

* https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/4318
* https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/4319
* https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/4321
* Note: these were mostly to find an alternative to #4291, which I
thought we'd need in my original plan where we would need to convert
`Tenant::timelines` into an async locking primitive (#4333). In reviews,
we walked away from that, but these cleanups were still quite useful.
