Resolves#1889.
This PR adds new tests to measure the WAL backpressure's performance under different workloads.
## Changes
- add new performance tests in `test_wal_backpressure.py`
- allow safekeeper's fsync to be configurable when running tests
* Implement page servise 'fullbackup' endpoint that works like basebackup, but also sends relational files
* Add test_runner/batch_others/test_fullbackup.py

All endpoints except for POST /v1/timeline are tested, this one is not tested in any way yet.
Three attempts for each endpoint: correctly authenticated, badly authenticated, unauthenticated.
I made the check at launcher level with the perspective of generally moving
election (decision who offloads) there.
Also log timeline 'active' changes.
Fixes#1768.
## Context
Previously, to test `get_wal_receiver` API, we make run some DB transactions then call the API to check the latest message's LSN from the WAL receiver. However, this test won't work because it's not guaranteed that the WAL receiver will get the latest WAL from the postgres/safekeeper at the time of making the API call.
This PR resolves the above issue by adding a "poll and wait" code that waits to retrieve the latest data from the WAL receiver.
This PR also fixes a bug that tries to compare two hex LSNs, should convert to number before the comparison. See: https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/1768#issuecomment-1133752122.
Resolve#1663.
## Changes
- ignore a "broken" [1] timeline on page server startup
- fix the race condition when creating multiple timelines in parallel for a tenant
- added tests for the above changes
[1]: a timeline is marked as "broken" if either
- failed to load the timeline's metadata or
- the timeline's disk consistent LSN is zero
Separate task is launched for each timeline and stopped when timeline doesn't
need offloading. Decision who offloads is done through etcd leader election;
currently there is no pre condition for participating, that's a TODO.
neon_local and tests infrastructure for remote storage in safekeepers added,
along with the test itself.

If the 'basebackup' command failed in the middle of building the tar
archive, the client would not report the error, but would attempt to
to start up postgres with the partial contents of the data directory.
That fails because the control file is missing (it's added to the
archive last, precisly to make sure that you cannot start postgres
from a partial archive). But the client doesn't see the proper error
message that caused the basebackup to fail in the server, which is
confusing.
Two issues conspired to cause that:
1. The tar::Builder object that we use in the pageserver to construct
the tar stream has a Drop handler that automatically writes a valid
end-of-archive marker on drop. Because of that, the resulting tarball
looks complete, even if an error happens while we're building it. The
pageserver does send an ErrorResponse after the seemingly-valid
tarball, but:
2. The client stops reading the Copy stream, as soon as it sees the
tar end-of-archive marker. Therefore, it doesn't read the
ErrorResponse that comes after it.
We have two clients that call 'basebackup', one in `control_plane`
used by the `neon_local` binary, and another one in
`compute_tools`. Both had the same issue.
This PR fixes both issues, even though fixing either one would be
enough to fix the problem at hand. The pageserver now doesn't send the
end-of-archive marker on error, and the client now reads the copy
stream to the end, even if it sees an end-of-archive marker.
Fixes github issue #1715
In the passing, change Basebackup to use generic Write rather than
'dyn'.
By default, etcd makes a huge 10 GB mmap() allocation when it starts up.
It doesn't actually use that much memory, it's just address space, but
it caused me grief when I tried to use 'rr' to debug a python test run.
Apparently, when you replay the 'rr' trace, it does allocate memory for
all that address space.
The size of the initial mmap depends on the --quota-backend-bytes setting.
Our etcd clusters are very small, so let's set --quota-backend-bytes to
keep the virtual memory size small, to make debugging with 'rr' easier.

The CI times out after 10 minutes of no output. It's annoying if a
test hangs and is killed by the CI timeout, because you don't get
information about which test was running. Try to avoid that, by adding
a slightly smaller timeout in pytest itself. You can override it on a
per-test basis if needed, but let's try to keep our tests shorter than
that.
For the Postgres regression tests, use a longer 30 minute timeout.
They're not really a single test, but many tests wrapped in a single
pytest test. It's OK for them to run longer in aggregate, each
Postgres test is still fairly short.
- Enabled process exporter for storage services
- Changed zenith_proxy prefix to just proxy
- Removed old `monitoring` directory
- Removed common prefix for metrics, now our common metrics have `libmetrics_` prefix, for example `libmetrics_serve_metrics_count`
- Added `test_metrics_normal_work`
The SyncQueue consisted of a tokio mpsc channel, and an atomic counter
to keep track of how many items there are in the channel. Updating the
atomic counter was racy, and sometimes the consumer would decrement
the counter before the producer had incremented it, leading to integer
wraparound to usize::MAX. Calling Vec::with_capacity(usize::MAX) leads
to a panic.
To fix, replace the channel with a VecDeque protected by a Mutex, and
a condition variable for signaling. Now that the queue is now
protected by standard blocking Mutex and Condvar, refactor the
functions touching it to be sync, not async.
A theoretical downside of this is that the calls to push items to the
queue and the storage sync thread that drains the queue might now need
to wait, if another thread is busy manipulating the queue. I believe
that's OK; the lock isn't held for very long, and these operations are
made in background threads, not in the hot GetPage@LSN path, so
they're not very latency-sensitive.
Fixes#1719. Also add a test case.
The contract for wait_for() was not very clear. It waits until the
given function returns successfully, without an exception, but the
wait_for_last_record_lsn() and wait_for_upload() functions used "a <
b" as the condition, i.e. they thought that wait_for() would poll
until the function returns true.
Inline the logic from wait_for() into those two functions, it's not
that complicated, and you get a more specific error message too, if it
fails. Also add a comment to wait_for() to make it more clear how it
works.
Also change remote_consistent_lsn() to return 0 instead of raising an
exception, if remote is None. That can happen if nothing has been
uploaded to remote storage for the timeline yet. It happened once in
the CI, and I was able to reproduce that locally too by adding a sleep
to the storage sync thread, to delay the first upload.
Resolves#1488.
- implemented `GET tenant/:tenant_id/timeline/:timeline_id/wal_receiver` endpoint
- returned `thread_id` in `thread_mgr::spawn`
- added `latest_gc_cutoff_lsn` field to `LocalTimelineInfo` struct
It's very confusing, and because you don't get a stack trace and error
message in the logs, makes debugging very hard. However, the
'test_pageserver_recovery' test relied on that behavior. To support that,
add a new "exit" action to the pageserver 'failpoints' command, so that
you can explicitly request to exit the process when a failpoint is hit.
Use timestamp->LSN mapping instead of file modification time.
Fix 'latest_gc_cutoff_lsn' - set it to the minimum of pitr_cutoff and gc_cutoff.
Add new test: test_pitr_gc
