The walproposer pretends to be a walsender in many ways. It has a
WalSnd slot, it claims to be a walsender by calling
MarkPostmasterChildWalSender() etc. But one different to real
walsenders was that the postmaster still treated it as a bgworker
rather than a walsender. The difference is that at shutdown,
walsenders are not killed until the very end, after the checkpointer
process has written the shutdown checkpoint and exited.
As a result, the walproposer always got killed before the shutdown
checkpoint was written, so the shutdown checkpoint never made it to
safekeepers. That's fine in principle, we don't require a clean
shutdown after all. But it also feels a bit silly not to stream the
shutdown checkpoint. It could be useful for initializing hot standby
mode in a read replica, for example.
Change postmaster to treat background workers that have called
MarkPostmasterChildWalSender() as walsenders. That unfortunately
requires another small change in postgres core.
After doing that, walproposers stay alive longer. However, it also
means that the checkpointer will wait for the walproposer to switch to
WALSNDSTATE_STOPPING state, when the checkpointer sends the
PROCSIG_WALSND_INIT_STOPPING signal. We don't have the machinery in
walproposer to receive and handle that signal reliably. Instead, we
mark walproposer as being in WALSNDSTATE_STOPPING always.
In commit 568f91420a, I assumed that shutdown will wait for all the
remaining WAL to be streamed to safekeepers, but before this commit
that was not true, and the test became flaky. This should make it
stable again.
Some tests wrongly assumed that no WAL could have been written between
pg_current_wal_flush_lsn and quick pg stop after it. Fix them by introducing
flush_ep_to_pageserver which first stops the endpoint and then waits till all
committed WAL reaches the pageserver.
In passing extract safekeeper http client to its own module.
## Problem
LFC has high impact on Neon application performance but there is no way
for user to check efficiency of its usage
## Summary of changes
Show LFC statistic in EXPLAIN ANALYZE
## Description
**Local file cache (LFC)**
A layer of caching that stores frequently accessed data from the storage
layer in the local memory of the Neon compute instance. This cache helps
to reduce latency and improve query performance by minimizing the need
to fetch data from the storage layer repeatedly.
**Externalization of LFC in explain output**
Then EXPLAIN ANALYZE output is extended to display important counts for
local file cache (LFC) hits and misses.
This works both, for EXPLAIN text and json output.
**File cache: hits**
Whenever the Postgres backend retrieves a page/block from SGMR, it is
not found in shared buffer but the page is already found in the LFC this
counter is incremented.
**File cache: misses**
Whenever the Postgres backend retrieves a page/block from SGMR, it is
not found in shared buffer and also not in then LFC but the page is
retrieved from Neon storage (page server) this counter is incremented.
Example (for explain text output)
```sql
explain (analyze,buffers,prefetch,filecache) select count(*) from pgbench_accounts;

This reverts commit 9ad940086c.
This pull request reverts #6733 to avoid incompatibility with pgvector
and I will push further fixes later. Note that after reverting this pull
request, the postgres submodule will point to some detached branches.
close https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/6236
This pull request bumps neon postgres dependencies. The corresponding
postgres commits fix the checks for superuser permission when creating

## Problem
We currently can't create subscriptions in PG14 and PG15 because only
superusers can, and PG16 requires adding roles to
pg_create_subscription.
## Summary of changes
I added changes to PG14 and PG15 that allow neon_superuser to bypass the
superuser requirement. For PG16, I didn't do that but added a migration
that adds neon_superuser to pg_create_subscription. Also added a test to
make sure it works.
## Problem
PG16 (https://github.com/neondatabase/postgres/pull/327) adds new
function to SMGR: zeroextend
It's implementation in Neon actually wal-log zero pages of extended
relation.
This zero page is wal-logged using XLOG_FPI.
As far as page is zero, the hole optimization (excluding from the image
everything between pg_upper and pd_lower) doesn't work.
## Summary of changes
In case of zero page (`PageIsNull()` returns true) assume
`hole_size=BLCKSZ`

Add infrastructure to dynamically load postgres extensions and shared libraries from remote extension storage.
Before postgres start downloads list of available remote extensions and libraries, and also downloads 'shared_preload_libraries'. After postgres is running, 'compute_ctl' listens for HTTP requests to load files.
Postgres has new GUC 'extension_server_port' to specify port on which 'compute_ctl' listens for requests.
When PostgreSQL requests a file, 'compute_ctl' downloads it.
See more details about feature design and remote extension storage layout in docs/rfcs/024-extension-loading.md

## 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-v14 rev to be at '1414141414141414141414141414141414141414', but it is at '1144aee1661c79eec65e784a8dad8bd450d9df79'
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

This is prep for https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/4255
[1/X] OpenAPI: share a single definition of TenantConfig
DRYs up the pageserver OpenAPI YAML's representation of
tenant config.
All the fields of tenant config are now located in a model schema
called TenantConfig.
The tenant create & config-change endpoints have separate schemas,
TenantCreateInfo and TenantConfigureArg, respectively.
These schemas inherit from TenantConfig, using allOf 1.
The tenant config-GET handler's response was previously named
TenantConfig.
It's now named TenantConfigResponse.
None of these changes affect how the request looks on the wire.
The generated Go code will change for Console because the OpenAPI code
generator maps `allOf` to a Go struct embedding.
Luckily, usage of tenant config in Console is still very lightweigt,
but that will change in the near future.
So, this is a good chance to set things straight.
The console changes are tracked in
https://github.com/neondatabase/cloud/pull/5046
[2/x]: extract the tenant config parts of create & config requests
[3/x]: code movement: move TenantConfigRequestConfig next to
TenantCreateRequestConfig
[4/x] type-alias TenantConfigRequestConfig = TenantCreateRequestConfig;
They are exactly the same.
[5/x] switch to qualified use for tenant create/config request api
models
[6/x] rename models::TenantConfig{RequestConfig,} and remove the alias
[7/x] OpenAPI: sync tenant create & configure body names from Rust code
[8/x]: dedupe the two TryFrom<...> for TenantConfOpt impls
The only difference is that the TenantConfigRequest impl does
```
tenant_conf.max_lsn_wal_lag = request_data.max_lsn_wal_lag;
tenant_conf.trace_read_requests = request_data.trace_read_requests;
```
and the TenantCreateRequest impl does
```
if let Some(max_lsn_wal_lag) = request_data.max_lsn_wal_lag {
tenant_conf.max_lsn_wal_lag = Some(max_lsn_wal_lag);
}
if let Some(trace_read_requests) = request_data.trace_read_requests {
tenant_conf.trace_read_requests = Some(trace_read_requests);
}
```
As far as I can tell, these are identical.
Conflicts:
- Changes in PG15's xlogrecovery.c resulted in non-substantial conflicts between
ecb01e6ebb5a67f3fc00840695682a8b1ba40461 and
aee72b7be903e52d9bdc6449aa4c17fb852d8708
Fixes#4207
Notes:
- This still needs UI support from the Console
- I've not tuned any GUCs for PostgreSQL to make this work better
- Safekeeper has gotten a tweak in which WAL is sent and how: It now
sends zero-ed WAL data from the start of the timeline's first segment up to
the first byte of the timeline to be compatible with normal PostgreSQL
WAL streaming.
- This includes the commits of #3714

* Stop allocating and maintaining 128MB hash table for last written
LSN cache as it is not needed in wal-redo.
* Do not require access to the initialized data directory. That
saves few dozens megabytes of empty but initialized data directory.
Currently such directories do occupy about 10% of the disk space
on the pageservers as most of tenants are empty.

```
The version of PostgreSQL that we use is updated to 14.7 for PostgreSQL
14 and 15.2 for PostgreSQL 15.
```
Several fixes are included, with among others:
- Prefetching for index bulkdelete calls (e.g. during vacuum), plus v14 compiler warning fix
- A fix for setting LSN on heap pages while setting vm bits
- Some style updates that were lost in the previous wave (v15 only)
- **Enable `enable_seqscan_prefetch` by default**
- Drop use of `seqscan_prefetch_buffers` in favor of
`[maintenance,effective]_io_concurrency`
This includes adding some fields to the HeapScan execution node, and
vacuum state.
- Cleanup some conditionals in vacuumlazy.c
- Clarify enable_seqscan_prefetch GUC description
- Fix issues in heap SeqScan prefetching where synchronize_seqscan
machinery wasn't handled properly.
