## Problem
`cargo +nightly doc` is giving a lot of warnings: broken links, naked
URLs, etc.
## Summary of changes
* update the `proc-macro2` dependency so that it can compile on latest
Rust nightly, see https://github.com/dtolnay/proc-macro2/pull/391 and
https://github.com/dtolnay/proc-macro2/issues/398
* allow the `private_intra_doc_links` lint, as linking to something
that's private is always more useful than just mentioning it without a
link: if the link breaks in the future, at least there is a warning due
to that. Also, one might enable
[`--document-private-items`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/commands/cargo-doc.html#documentation-options)
in the future and make these links work in general.
* fix all the remaining warnings given by `cargo +nightly doc`
* make it possible to run `cargo doc` on stable Rust by updating
`opentelemetry` and associated crates to version 0.19, pulling in a fix
that previously broke `cargo doc` on stable:
https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-rust/pull/904
* Add `cargo doc` to CI to ensure that it won't get broken in the
future.
Fixes#2557
## Future work
* Potentially, it might make sense, for development purposes, to publish
the generated rustdocs somewhere, like for example [how the rust
compiler does
it](https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/nightly-rustc/rustc_driver/index.html).
I will file an issue for discussion.
This patch centralize the logic of creating & reading pid files into the
new pid_file module and improves upon / makes explicit a few race conditions
that existed with the previous code.
Starting Processes / Creating Pidfiles
======================================
Before this patch, we had three places that had very similar-looking
match lock_file::create_lock_file { ... }
blocks.
After this change, they can use a straight-forward call provided
by the pid_file:
pid_file::claim_pid_file_for_pid()
Stopping Processes / Reading Pidfiles
=====================================
The new pid_file module provides a function to read a pidfile,
called read_pidfile(), that returns a
pub enum PidFileRead {
NotExist,
NotHeldByAnyProcess(PidFileGuard),
LockedByOtherProcess(Pid),
}
If we get back NotExist, there is nothing to kill.
If we get back NotHeldByAnyProcess, the pid file is stale and we must
ignore its contents.
If it's LockedByOtherProcess, it's either another pidfile reader
or, more likely, the daemon that is still running.
In this case, we can read the pid in the pidfile and kill it.
There's still a small window where this is racy, but it's not a
regression compared to what we have before.
The NotHeldByAnyProcess is an improvement over what we had before
this patch. Before, we would blindly read the pidfile contents
and kill, even if no other process held the flock.
If the pidfile was stale (NotHeldByAnyProcess), then that kill
would either result in ESRCH or hit some other unrelated process
on the system. This patch avoids the latter cacse by grabbing
an exclusive flock before reading the pidfile, and returning the
flock to the caller in the form of a guard object, to avoid
concurrent reads / kills.
It's hopefully irrelevant in practice, but it's a little robustness
that we get for free here.
Maintain flock on Pidfile of ETCD / any InitialPidFile::Create()
================================================================
Pageserver and safekeeper create their pidfiles themselves.
But for etcd, neon_local creates the pidfile (InitialPidFile::Create()).
Before this change, we would unlock the etcd pidfile as soon as
`neon_local start` exits, simply because no-one else kept the FD open.
During `neon_local stop`, that results in a stale pid file,
aka, NotHeldByAnyProcess, and it would henceforth not trust that
the PID stored in the file is still valid.
With this patch, we make the etcd process inherit the pidfile FD,
thereby keeping the flock held until it exits.
