This brings in the change to not use a shared memory in the WAL redo
process, to avoid running out of sysv shmem segments in the page server.
Also, removal of callmemaybe bits.
+ neondatabase/cloud#1103
This adds a couple of control endpoints to simplify compute state
discovery for control-plane. For example, now we may figure out
that Postgres wasn't able to start or basebackup failed within
seconds instead of just blindly polling the compute readiness
for a minute or two.
Also we now expose startup metrics (time of the each step: basebackup,
sync safekeepers, config, total). Console grabs them after each
successful start and report as histogram to prometheus and grafana.
OpenAPI spec is added and up-tp date, but is not currently used in the
console yet.
* 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
* 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.
This is a backwards-incompatible change. The new pageserver cannot
read repositories created with an old pageserver binary, or vice
versa.
Simplify Repository to a value-store
------------------------------------
Move the responsibility of tracking relation metadata, like which
relations exist and what are their sizes, from Repository to a new
module, pgdatadir_mapping.rs. The interface to Repository is now a
simple key-value PUT/GET operations.
It's still not any old key-value store though. A Repository is still
responsible from handling branching, and every GET operation comes
with an LSN.
Mapping from Postgres data directory to keys/values
---------------------------------------------------
All the data is now stored in the key-value store. The
'pgdatadir_mapping.rs' module handles mapping from PostgreSQL objects
like relation pages and SLRUs, to key-value pairs.
The key to the Repository key-value store is a Key struct, which
consists of a few integer fields. It's wide enough to store a full
RelFileNode, fork and block number, and to distinguish those from
metadata keys.
'pgdatadir_mapping.rs' is also responsible for maintaining a
"partitioning" of the keyspace. Partitioning means splitting the
keyspace so that each partition holds a roughly equal number of keys.
The partitioning is used when new image layer files are created, so
that each image layer file is roughly the same size.
The partitioning is also responsible for reclaiming space used by
deleted keys. The Repository implementation doesn't have any explicit
support for deleting keys. Instead, the deleted keys are simply
omitted from the partitioning, and when a new image layer is created,
the omitted keys are not copied over to the new image layer. We might
want to implement tombstone keys in the future, to reclaim space
faster, but this will work for now.
Changes to low-level layer file code
------------------------------------
The concept of a "segment" is gone. Each layer file can now store an
arbitrary range of Keys.
Checkpointing, compaction
-------------------------
The background tasks are somewhat different now. Whenever
checkpoint_distance is reached, the WAL receiver thread "freezes" the
current in-memory layer, and creates a new one. This is a quick
operation and doesn't perform any I/O yet. It then launches a
background "layer flushing thread" to write the frozen layer to disk,
as a new L0 delta layer. This mechanism takes care of durability. It
replaces the checkpointing thread.
Compaction is a new background operation that takes a bunch of L0
delta layers, and reshuffles the data in them. It runs in a separate
compaction thread.
Deployment
----------
This also contains changes to the ansible scripts that enable having
multiple different pageservers running at the same time in the staging
environment. We will use that to keep an old version of the pageserver
running, for clusters created with the old version, at the same time
with a new pageserver with the new binary.

Since commit fdd987c3ad, it was only used in InMemoryLayers. Let's
just "inline" the code into InMemoryLayer itself.
I originally did this as part of a bigger PR (#1267). With that PR,
one in-memory layer, and one ephemeral file, would hold page versions
belonging to multiple segments. Currently, PageVersions can only hold
versions for a single segment, so that would need to be changed.
Rather than modify PageVersions to support that, just remove it
altogether.
Use GUC zenith.max_cluster_size to set the limit.
If limit is reached, extend requests will throw out-of-space error.
When current size is too close to the limit - throw a warning.
Add new test: test_timeline_size_quota.
to pass current_timeline_size to compute node
Put standby_status_update fields into ZenithFeedback and send them as one message.
Pass values sizes together with keys in ZenithFeedback message.
Currently it's included with minimal changes and lives aside of the main
workspace. Later we may re-use and combine common parts with zenith
control_plane.
This change is mostly needed to unify cloud deployment pipeline:
1.1. build compute-tools image
1.2. build compute-node image based on the freshly built compute-tools
2. build zenith image
So we can roll new compute image and new storage required by it to
operate properly. Also it becomes easier to test console against some
specific version of compute-node/-tools.
Change meaning of lsns in HOT_STANDBY_FEEDBACK:
flush_lsn = disk_consistent_lsn,
apply_lsn = remote_consistent_lsn
Update compute node backpressure configuration respectively.
Update compute node configuration:
set 'synchronous_commit=remote_write' in setup without safekeepers.
This way compute node doesn't have to wait for data checkpoint on pageserver.
This doesn't guarantee data durability, but we only use this setup for tests, so it's fine.
