## Problem
The first version of the ingest benchmark had some parsing and reporting
logic in shell script inside GitHub workflow.
it is better to move that logic into a python testcase so that we can
also run it locally.
## Summary of changes
- Create new python testcase
- invoke pgcopydb inside python test case
- move the following logic into python testcase
- determine backpressure
- invoke pgcopydb and report its progress
- parse pgcopydb log and extract metrics
- insert metrics into perf test database
- add additional column to perf test database that can receive endpoint
ID used for pgcopydb run to have it available in grafana dashboard when
retrieving other metrics for an endpoint
## Example run
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/actions/runs/11860622170/job/33056264386
## Problem
Due to #9471 , the scale test occasionally gets 404s while trying to
modify the config of a timeline that belongs to a tenant being migrated.
We rarely see this narrow race in the field, but the test is quite good
at reproducing it.
## Summary of changes
- Ignore 404 errors in this test.
Analysis of the LR benchmarking tests indicates that in the duration of
test_subscriber_lag, a leftover 'slotter' replication slot can lead to
retained WAL growing on the publisher. This replication slot is not used
by any subscriber. The only purpose of the slot is to generate snapshot
files for the puspose of test_snap_files.

psycopg2 has the following warning related to autocommit:
> By default, any query execution, including a simple SELECT will start
> a transaction: for long-running programs, if no further action is
> taken, the session will remain “idle in transaction”, an undesirable
> condition for several reasons (locks are held by the session, tables
> bloat…). For long lived scripts, either ensure to terminate a
> transaction as soon as possible or use an autocommit connection.
In the 2.9 release notes, psycopg2 also made the following change:
> `with connection` starts a transaction on autocommit transactions too
Some of these connections are indeed long-lived, so we were retaining
tons of WAL on the endpoints because we had a transaction pinned in the
past.

## Problem
Running `pytest.skip(...)` in a test body instead of marking the test
with `@pytest.mark.skipif(...)` makes all fixtures to be initialised,
which is not necessary if the test is going to be skipped anyway.
Also, some tests are unnecessarily skipped (e.g. `test_layer_bloating`
on Postgres 17, or `test_idle_reconnections` at all) or run (e.g.
`test_parse_project_git_version_output_positive` more than on once
configuration) according to comments.
## Summary of changes
- Move `skip_on_postgres` / `xfail_on_postgres` /
`run_only_on_default_postgres` decorators to `fixture.utils`
- Add new `skip_in_debug_build` and `skip_on_ci` decorators
- Replace `pytest.skip(...)` calls with decorators where possible
Adds a Python benchmark for sharded ingestion. This ingests 7 GB of WAL
(100M rows) into a Safekeeper and fans out to 10 shards running on 10
different pageservers. The ingest volume and duration is recorded.
## Problem
Part of https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/8623
## Summary of changes
Removed all aux-v1 config processing code. Note that we persisted it
into the index part file, so we cannot really remove the field from
index part. I also kept the config item within the tenant config, but we
will not read it any more.

## Problem
We were seeing timeouts on migrations in this test.
The test unfortunately tends to saturate local storage, which is shared
between the pageservers and the control plane database, which makes the
test kind of unrealistic. We will also want to increase the scale of
this test, so it's worth fixing that.
## Summary of changes
- Instead of randomly creating timelines at the same time as the other
background operations, explicitly identify a subset of tenant which will
have timelines, and create them at the start. This avoids pageservers
putting a lot of load on the test node during the main body of the test.
- Adjust the tenants created to create some number of 8 shard tenants
and the rest 1 shard tenants, instead of just creating a lot of 2 shard
tenants.
- Use archival_config to exercise tenant-mutating operations, instead of
using timeline creation for this.
- Adjust reconcile_until_idle calls to avoid waiting 5 seconds between
calls, which causes timelines with large shard count tenants.
- Fix a pageserver bug where calls to archival_config during activation
get 404
## Problem
The path to TPC-H queries was incorrectly changed in #9306.
This path is used for `test_tpch` parameterization, so all perf tests
started to fail:
```
==================================== ERRORS ====================================

```
## Summary of changes
- Fix the path to tpc-h queries
It didn't serve much value, and was only used twice.
Path(__file__).parent is a pretty easy invocation to use.

Add wrappers for a few commands that didn't have them before. Move the
logic to generate tenant and timeline IDs from NeonCli to the callers,
so that NeonCli is more purely just a type-safe wrapper around
'neon_local'.
This should generally be faster when running tests, especially those
that run with higher scales.
Ignoring test_lfc_resize since it seems like we are hitting a query
timeout for some reason that I have yet to investigate. A little bit of
improvemnt is better than none.

After #8655, we needed to mark some tests to shut down immediately. To
aid these tests, try the new pattern of `flush_ep_to_pageserver`
followed by a non-compacting checkpoint. This moves the general graceful
shutdown problem of having too much to flush at shutdown into the test.
Also, add logging for how long the graceful shutdown took, if we got to
complete it for faster log eyeballing.
Fixes: #8712
Cc: #8715, #8708
## Problem
The default Postgres version is set to 15 in code, while we use 16 in
most of the other places (and Postgres 17 is coming)
## Summary of changes
- Run `benchmarks` job with Postgres 16 (instead of Postgres 14)
- Set `DEFAULT_PG_VERSION` to 16 in all places
- Remove deprecated `--pg-version` pytest argument
- Update `test_metadata_bincode_serde_ensure_roundtrip` for Postgres 16
## Problem
Current superuser check always passes because it returns a tuple like
`(False,)`, and then the `if not superuser` passes.
## Summary of changes
Fixes the issue by unwrapping the tuple. Verified that it works against
a project where I don't have superuser.
It seems that some benchmarks are failing because they are simply not
stopping to ingest wal on shutdown. It might mean that the tests were
never ran on a stable pageserver situation and WAL has always been left
to be ingested on safekeepers, but let's see if this silences the
failures and "stops the bleeding".

## Problem
Pageserver exposes some vectored get related configs which are not in
use.
## Summary of changes
Remove the following pageserver configs: get_impl, get_vectored_impl,
and `validate_get_vectored`.
They are not used in the pageserver since
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/8601.
Manual overrides have been removed from the aws repo in
https://github.com/neondatabase/aws/pull/1664.
## Problem
This test was disabled.
## Summary of changes
- Remove the skip marker.
- Explicitly avoid doing compaction & gc during checkpoints (the default
scale doesn't do anything here, but when experimeting with larger scales
it messes things up)
- Set a data size that gives a ~20s runtime on a Hetzner dev machine,
previous one gave very noisy results because it was so small
For reference on a Hetzner AX102:

## Problem
Migrations of tenant shards with cold secondaries are holding up drains
in during production deployments.
## Summary of changes
If a secondary locations is lagging by more than 256MiB (configurable,
but that's the default), then skip cutting it over to the secondary as part of the node drain.
## Problem
The controller scale test does random migrations. These mutate secondary
locations, and therefore can cause secondary optimizations to happen in
the background, violating the test's expectation that consistency_check
will work as there are no reconciliations running.
Example:
https://neon-github-public-dev.s3.amazonaws.com/reports/main/10247161379/index.html#suites/07874de07c4a1c9effe0d92da7755ebf/6316beacd3fb3060/
## Summary of changes
- Only migrate to existing secondary locations, not randomly picked
nodes, so that we can do a fast reconcile_until_idle (otherwise
reconcile_until_idle is takes a long time to create new secondary
locations).
- Do a reconcile_until_idle before consistency_check.
## Problem
> Currently, long-running LR tests recreate endpoints every night. We'd
like to have along-running buildup of history to exercise the pageserver
in this case (instead of "unit-testing" the same behavior everynight).
Closes#8317
## Summary of changes
- Update Postgres version for replication tests
- Set `BENCHMARK_PROJECT_ID_PUB`/`BENCHMARK_PROJECT_ID_SUB` env vars to
projects that were created for this purpose
