This is a full switch, fs io operations are also tokio ones, working through
thread pool. Similar to pageserver, we have multiple runtimes for easier `top`
usage and isolation.
Notable points:
- Now that guts of safekeeper.rs are full of .await's, we need to be very
careful not to drop task at random point, leaving timeline in unclear
state. Currently the only writer is walreceiver and we don't have top
level cancellation there, so we are good. But to be safe probably we should
add a fuse panicking if task is being dropped while operation on a timeline
is in progress.
- Timeline lock is Tokio one now, as we do disk IO under it.
- Collecting metrics got a crutch: since prometheus Collector is
synchronous, it spawns a thread with current thread runtime collecting data.
- Anything involving closures becomes significantly more complicated, as
async fns are already kinda closures + 'async closures are unstable'.
- Main thread now tracks other main tasks, which got much easier.
- The only sync place left is initial data loading, as otherwise clippy
complains on timeline map lock being held across await points -- which is
not bad here as it happens only in single threaded runtime of main thread.
But having it sync doesn't hurt either.
I'm concerned about performance of thread pool io offloading, async traits and
many await points; but we can try and see how it goes.

- Add support for splitting async postgres_backend into read and write halfes.
Safekeeper needs this for bidirectional streams. To this end, encapsulate
reading-writing postgres messages to framed.rs with split support without any
additional changes (relying on BufRead for reading and BytesMut out buffer for
writing).
- Use async postgres_backend throughout safekeeper (and in proxy auth link
part).
- In both safekeeper COPY streams, do read-write from the same thread/task with
select! for easier error handling.
- Tidy up finishing CopyBoth streams in safekeeper sending and receiving WAL
-- join split parts back catching errors from them before returning.
Initially I hoped to do that read-write without split at all, through polling
IO:
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/3522
However that turned out to be more complicated than I initially expected
due to 1) borrow checking and 2) anon Future types. 1) required Rc<Refcell<...>>
which is Send construct just to satisfy the checker; 2) can be workaround with
transmute. But this is so messy that I decided to leave split.
To untie cyclic dependency between sync and async versions of postgres_backend,
copy QueryError and some logging/error routines to postgres_backend.rs. This is
temporal glue to make commits smaller, sync version will be dropped by the
upcoming commit completely.
Closes https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/3114
Adds more typization into errors that appear during protocol messages (`FeMessage`), postgres and walreceiver connections.
Socket IO errors are now better detected and logged with lesser (INFO, DEBUG) error level, without traces that they were logged before, when they were wrapped in anyhow context.
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.
- Split postgres_ffi into two version specific files.
- Preserve pg_version in timeline metadata.
- Use pg_version in safekeeper code. Check for postgres major version mismatch.
- Clean up the code to use DEFAULT_PG_VERSION constant everywhere, instead of hardcoding.
- Parameterize python tests: use DEFAULT_PG_VERSION env and pg_version fixture.
To run tests using a specific PostgreSQL version, pass the DEFAULT_PG_VERSION environment variable:
'DEFAULT_PG_VERSION='15' ./scripts/pytest test_runner/regress'
Currently don't all tests pass, because rust code relies on the default version of PostgreSQL in a few places.
Another preparatory commit for pg15 support:
* generate bindings for both pg14 and pg15;
* update Makefile and CI scripts: now neon build depends on both PostgreSQL versions;
* some code refactoring to decrease version-specific dependencies.
Re-export only things that are used by other modules.
In the future, I'm imagining that we run bindgen twice, for Postgres
v14 and v15. The two sets of bindings would go into separate
'bindings_v14' and 'bindings_v15' modules.
Rearrange postgres_ffi modules.
Move function, to avoid Postgres version dependency in timelines.rs
Move function to generate a logical-message WAL record to postgres_ffi.
Make it remember when timeline starts in general and on this safekeeper in
particular (the point might be later on new safekeeper replacing failed one).
Bumps control file and walproposer protocol versions.
While protocol is bumped, also add safekeeper node id to
AcceptorProposerGreeting.
