It originated from the fact that we were calling to fetch_full_index
without releasing the read guard, and fetch_full_index tries to acquire
read again. For plain mutex it is already a deeadlock, for RW lock
deadlock was achieved by an attempt to acquire write access later in the
code while still having active read guard up in the stack
This is sort of a bandaid because Kirill plans to change this code
during removal of an archiving mechanism
* [proxy] Add SCRAM auth
* [proxy] Implement some tests for SCRAM
* Refactoring + test fixes
* Hide SCRAM mechanism behind `#[cfg(test)]`
Currently we only use it in tests, so we hide all relevant
module behind `#[cfg(test)]` to prevent "unused item" warnings.
* Add test for restore from WAL
* Fix python formatting
* Choose unused port in wal restore test
* Move recovery tests to zenith_utils/scripts
* Set LD_LIBRARY_PATH in wal recovery scripts
* Fix python test formatting
* Fix mypy warning
* Bump postgres version
* Bump postgres version
We now use a page cache for those, instead of slurping the whole index into
memory.
Fixes https://github.com/zenithdb/zenith/issues/1356
This is a backwards-incompatible change to the storage format, so
bump STORAGE_FORMAT_VERSION.
This introduces two new abstraction layers for I/O:
- Block I/O, and
- Blob I/O.
The BlockReader trait abstracts a file or something else that can be read
in 8kB pages. It is implemented by EphemeralFiles, and by a new
FileBlockReader struct that allows reading arbitrary VirtualFiles in that
manner, utilizing the page cache.
There is also a new BlockCursor struct that works as a cursor over a
BlockReader. When you create a BlockCursor and read the first page using
it, it keeps the reference to the page. If you access the same page again,
it avoids going to page cache and quickly returns the same page again.
That can save a lot of lookups in the page cache if you perform multiple
reads.
The Blob-oriented API allows reading and writing "blobs" of arbitrary
length. It is a layer on top of the block-oriented API. When you write
a blob with the write_blob() function, it writes a length field
followed by the actual data to the underlying block storage, and
returns the offset where the blob was stored. The blob can be
retrieved later using the offset.
Finally, this replaces the I/O code in image-, delta-, and in-memory
layers to use the new abstractions. These replace the 'bookfile'
crate.
This is a backwards-incompatible change to the storage format.
We have these methods for some time in the API, so mentioning them in the
spec could be useful for console (see zenithdb/console#867), as we generate
pageserver HTTP API golang client there.
It happened in unit tests. If a thread tries to read a buffer while
already holding a lock on one buffer, the code to find a victim buffer
to evict could try to evict the buffer that's already locked. To fix,
skip locked buffers.
* Add a test case for reading historic page versions
Test read_page_at_lsn returns correct results when compared to page inspect.
Validate possiblity of reading pages from dropped relation.
Ensure funcitons read latest version when null lsn supplied.
Check that functions do not poison buffer cache with stale page versions.
Safekeers now publish to and pull from etcd per-timeline data. Immediate goal is
WAL truncation, for which every safekeeper must know remote_consistent_lsn; the
next would be callmemaybe replacement.
Adds corresponding '--broker' argument to safekeeper and ability to run etcd in
tests.
Adds test checking remote_consistent_lsn is indeed communicated.
workspace_hack is needed to avoid recompilation when different crates
inside the workspace depend on the same packages but with different
features being enabled. Problem occurs when you build crates separately
one by one. So this is irrelevant to our CI setup because there we build
all binaries at once, but it may be relevant for local development.
this also changes cargo's resolver version to 2
