* etcd-client is not updated, since we plan to replace it with another client and the new version errors with some missing prost library error
* clap had released another major update that requires changing every CLI declaration again, deserves a separate PR
With the ability to pass commit_lsn. This allows to perform project WAL recovery
through different (from the original) set of safekeepers (or under different
ttid) by
1) moving WAL files to s3 under proper ttid;
2) explicitly creating timeline on safekeepers, setting commit_lsn to the
latest point;
3) putting the lastest .parital file to the timeline directory on safekeepers, if
desired.
Extend test_s3_wal_replay to exersise this behaviour.
Also extends timeline_status endpoint to return postgres information.
We had a problem where almost all of the threads were waiting on a futex syscall. More specifically:
- `/metrics` handler was inside `TimelineCollector::collect()`, waiting on a mutex for a single Timeline
- This exact timeline was inside `control_file::FileStorage::persist()`, waiting on a mutex for Lazy initialization of `PERSIST_CONTROL_FILE_SECONDS`
- `PERSIST_CONTROL_FILE_SECONDS: Lazy<Histogram>` was blocked on `prometheus::register`
- `prometheus::register` calls `DEFAULT_REGISTRY.write().register()` to take a write lock on Registry and add a new metric
- `DEFAULT_REGISTRY` lock was already taken inside `DEFAULT_REGISTRY.gather()`, which was called by `/metrics` handler to collect all metrics
This commit creates another Registry with a separate lock, to avoid deadlock in a case where `TimelineCollector` triggers registration of new metrics inside default registry.
Part of the general work on improving pageserver logs.
Brief summary of changes:
* Remove `ApiError::from_err`
* Remove `impl From<anyhow::Error> for ApiError`
* Convert `ApiError::{BadRequest, NotFound}` to use `anyhow::Error`
* Note: `NotFound` has more verbose formatting because it's more
likely to have useful information for the receiving "user"
* Explicitly convert from `tokio::task::JoinError`s into
`InternalServerError`s where appropriate
Also note: many of the places where errors were implicitly converted to
500s have now been updated to return a more appropriate error. Some
places where it's not yet possible to distinguish the error types have
been left as 500s.
Follow-up to PR #2433 (b8eb908a). There's still a few more unresolved
locations that have been left as-is for the same compatibility reasons
in the original PR.
Instead of spawning helper threads, we now use Tokio tasks. There
are multiple Tokio runtimes, for different kinds of tasks. One for
serving libpq client connections, another for background operations
like GC and compaction, and so on. That's not strictly required, we
could use just one runtime, but with this you can still get an
overview of what's happening with "top -H".
There's one subtle behavior in how TenantState is updated. Before this
patch, if you deleted all timelines from a tenant, its GC and
compaction loops were stopped, and the tenant went back to Idle
state. We no longer do that. The empty tenant stays Active. The
changes to test_tenant_tasks.py are related to that.
There's still plenty of synchronous code and blocking. For example, we
still use blocking std::io functions for all file I/O, and the
communication with WAL redo processes is still uses low-level unix
poll(). We might want to rewrite those later, but this will do for
now. The model is that local file I/O is considered to be fast enough
that blocking - and preventing other tasks running in the same thread -
is acceptable.
Previously, proxy didn't forward auxiliary `options` parameter
and other ones to the client's compute node, e.g.
```
$ psql "user=john host=localhost dbname=postgres options='-cgeqo=off'"
postgres=# show geqo;
┌──────┐
│ geqo │
├──────┤
│ on │
└──────┘
(1 row)
```
With this patch we now forward `options`, `application_name` and `replication`.

`latest_gc_cutoff_lsn` tracks the cutoff point where GC has been
performed. Anything older than the cutoff might already have been GC'd
away, and cannot be queried by get_page_at_lsn requests. It's
protected by an RWLock. Whenever a get_page_at_lsn requests comes in,
it first grabs the lock and reads the current `latest_gc_cutoff`, and
holds the lock it until the request has been served. The lock ensures
that GC doesn't start concurrently and remove page versions that we
still need to satisfy the request.
With the lock, get_page_at_lsn request could potentially be blocked
for a long time. GC only holds the lock in exclusive mode for a short
duration, but depending on how whether the RWLock is "fair", a read
request might be queued behind the GC's exclusive request, which in
turn might be queued behind a long-running read operation, like a
basebackup. If the lock implementation is not fair, i.e. if a reader
can always jump the queue if the lock is already held in read mode,
then another problem arises: GC might be starved if a constant stream
of GetPage requests comes in.
To avoid the long wait or starvation, introduce a Read-Copy-Update
mechanism to replace the lock on `latest_gc_cutoff_lsn`. With the RCU,
reader can always read the latest value without blocking (except for a
very short duration if the lock protecting the RCU is contended;
that's comparable to a spinlock). And a writer can always write a new
value without waiting for readers to finish using the old value. The
old readers will continue to see the old value through their guard
object, while new readers will see the new value.
This is purely theoretical ATM, we don't have any reports of either
starvation or blocking behind GC happening in practice. But it's
simple to fix, so let's nip that problem in the bud.

[proxy] Add the `password hack` authentication flow
This lets us authenticate users which can use neither
SNI (due to old libpq) nor connection string `options`
(due to restrictions in other client libraries).
Note: `PasswordHack` will accept passwords which are not
encoded in base64 via the "password" field. The assumption
is that most user passwords will be valid utf-8 strings,
and the rest may still be passed via "password_".
* Added project option in case SNI data is missing. Resolving issue #1745.
* Added invariant checking for project name: if both sni_data and project_name are available then they should match.
- Uncomment accidently `self.keep_alive.abort()` commented line, due to this
task never finished, which blocked launcher.
- Mess up with initialization one more time, to fix offloader trying to back up
segment 0. Now we initialize all required LSNs in handle_elected,
where we learn start LSN for the first time.
- Fix blind attempt to provide safekeeper service file with remote storage
params.
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.
ref #1009
Co-authored-by: Anton Shyrabokau <ahtoxa@Antons-MacBook-Pro.local>
- 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`
A new `get_lsn_by_timestamp` command is added to the libpq page service
API.
An extra timestamp field is now stored in an extra field after each
Clog page. It is the timestamp of the latest commit, among all the
transactions on the Clog page. To find the overall latest commit, we
need to scan all Clog pages, but this isn't a very frequent operation
so that's not too bad.
To find the LSN that corresponds to a timestamp, we perform a binary
search. The binary search starts with min = last LSN when GC ran, and
max = latest LSN on the timeline. On each iteration of the search we
check if there are any commits with a higher-than-requested timestamp
at that LSN.
Implements github issue 1361.
