Stacks on:
- https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/7165
Fixes while working on background optimization of scheduling after a
split:
- When a tenant has secondary locations, we weren't detaching the parent
shards' secondary locations when doing a split
- When a reconciler detaches a location, it was feeding back a
locationconf with `Detached` mode in its `observed` object, whereas it
should omit that location. This could cause the background reconcile
task to keep kicking off no-op reconcilers forever (harmless but
annoying).
- During shard split, we were scheduling secondary locations for the
child shards, but no reconcile was run for these until the next time the
background reconcile task ran. Creating these ASAP is useful, because
they'll be used shortly after a shard split as the destination locations
for migrating the new shards to different nodes.
This is a mixed bag of changes split out for separate review while
working on other things, and batched together to reduce load on CI
runners. Each commits stands alone for review purposes:
- do_tenant_shard_split was a long function and had a synchronous
validation phase at the start that could readily be pulled out into a
separate function. This also avoids the special casing of
ApiError::BadRequest when deciding whether an abort is needed on errors
- Add a 'describe' API (GET on tenant ID) that will enable storcon-cli
to see what's going on with a tenant
- the 'locate' API wasn't really meant for use in the field. It's for
tests: demote it to the /debug/ prefix
- The `Single` placement policy was a redundant duplicate of Double(0),
and Double was a bad name. Rename it Attached.
(https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/7107)
- Some neon_local commands were added for debug/demos, which are now
replaced by commands in storcon-cli (#7114 ). Even though that's not
merged yet, we don't need the neon_local ones any more.
Closes https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/7107
## Backward compat of Single/Double -> `Attached(n)` change
A database migration is used to convert any existing values.
## Problem
As with the pageserver, we should fail tests that emit unexpected log
errors/warnings.
## Summary of changes
- Refactor existing log checks to be reusable
- Run log checks for attachment_service
- Add allow lists as needed.
Add shard_number to PageserverFeedback and parse it on the compute side.
When compute receives a new ps_feedback, it calculates min LSNs among
feedbacks from all shards, and uses those LSNs for backpressure.
Add `test_sharding_backpressure` to verify that backpressure slows down
compute to wait for the slowest shard.
## Problem
The existing secondary download API relied on the caller to wait as long
as it took to complete -- for large shards that could be a long time, so
typical clients that might have a baked-in ~30s timeout would have a
problem.
## Summary of changes
- Take a `wait_ms` query parameter to instruct the pageserver how long
to wait: if the download isn't complete in this duration, then 201 is
returned instead of 200.
- For both 200 and 201 responses, include response body describing
download progress, in terms of layers and bytes. This is sufficient for
the caller to track how much data is being transferred and log/present
that status.
- In storage controller live migrations, use this API to apply a much
longer outer timeout, with smaller individual per-request timeouts, and
log the progress of the downloads.
- Add a test that injects layer download delays to exercise the new
behavior
Switched the order; doing https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/6139
first then can remove uninit marker after.
## Problem
Previously, existence of a timeline directory was treated as evidence of
the timeline's logical existence. That is no longer the case since we
treat remote storage as the source of truth on each startup: we can
therefore do without this mark file.
The mark file had also been used as a pseudo-lock to guard against
concurrent creations of the same TimelineId -- now that persistence is
no longer required, this is a bit unwieldy.
In #6139 the `Tenant::timelines_creating` was added to protect against
concurrent creations on the same TimelineId, making the uninit mark file
entirely redundant.
## Summary of changes
- Code that writes & reads mark file is removed
- Some nearby `pub` definitions are amended to `pub(crate)`
- `test_duplicate_creation` is added to demonstrate that mutual
exclusion of creations still works.
## Problem
If a pageserver was offline when the storage controller started, there
was no mechanism to update the
storage controller state when the pageserver becomes active.
## Summary of changes
* Add a heartbeater module. The heartbeater must be driven by an
external loop.
* Integrate the heartbeater into the service.
- Extend the types used by the service and scheduler to keep track of a
nodes' utilisation score.
- Add a background loop to drive the heartbeater and update the state
based on the deltas it generated
- Do an initial round of heartbeats at start-up
# Problem
While investigating #7124, I noticed that the benchmark was always using
the `DEFAULT_*` `virtual_file_io_engine` , i.e., `tokio-epoll-uring` as
of https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/7077.
The fundamental problem is that the `control_plane` code has its own
view of `PageServerConfig`, which, I believe, will always be a subset of
the real pageserver's `pageserver/src/config.rs`.
For the `virtual_file_io_engine` and `get_vectored_impl` parametrization
of the test suite, we were constructing a dict on the Python side that
contained these parameters, then handed it to
`control_plane::PageServerConfig`'s derived `serde::Deserialize`.
The default in serde is to ignore unknown fields, so, the Deserialize
impl silently ignored the fields.
In consequence, the fields weren't propagated to the `pageserver --init`
call, and the tests ended up using the
`pageserver/src/config.rs::DEFAULT_` values for the respective options
all the time.
Tests that explicitly used overrides in `env.pageserver.start()` and
similar were not affected by this.
But, it means that all the test suite runs where with parametrization
didn't properly exercise the code path.
# Changes
- use `serde(deny_unknown_fields)` to expose the problem
- With this change, the Python tests that override
`virtual_file_io_engine` and
`get_vectored_impl` fail on `pageserver --init`, exposing the problem.
- use destructuring to uncover the issue in the future
- fix the issue by adding the missing fields to the `control_plane`
crate's `PageServerConf`
- A better solution would be for control plane to re-use a struct
provided
by the pageserver crate, so that everything is in one place in
`pageserver/src/config.rs`, but, our config parsing code is (almost)
beyond repair anyways.
- fix the `pageserver_virtual_file_io_engine` to be responsive to the
env var
- => required to make parametrization work in benchmarks
# Testing
Before merging this PR, I re-ran the regression tests & CI with the full
matrix of `virtual_file_io_engine` and `tokio-epoll-uring`, see
9c7ea364e0
## Problem
Shard splits worked, but weren't safe against failures (e.g. node crash
during split) yet.
Related: #6676
## Summary of changes
- Introduce async rwlocks at the scope of Tenant and Node:
- exclusive tenant lock is used to protect splits
- exclusive node lock is used to protect new reconciliation process that
happens when setting node active
- exclusive locks used in both cases when doing persistent updates (e.g.
node scheduling conf) where the update to DB & in-memory state needs to
be atomic.
- Add failpoints to shard splitting in control plane and pageserver
code.
- Implement error handling in control plane for shard splits: this
detaches child chards and ensures parent shards are re-attached.
- Crash-safety for storage controller restarts requires little effort:
we already reconcile with nodes over a storage controller restart, so as
long as we reset any incomplete splits in the DB on restart (added in
this PR), things are implicitly cleaned up.
- Implement reconciliation with offline nodes before they transition to
active:
- (in this context reconciliation means something like
startup_reconcile, not literally the Reconciler)
- This covers cases where split abort cannot reach a node to clean it
up: the cleanup will eventually happen when the node is marked active,
as part of reconciliation.
- This also covers the case where a node was unavailable when the
storage controller started, but becomes available later: previously this
allowed it to skip the startup reconcile.
- Storage controller now terminates on panics. We only use panics for
true "should never happen" assertions, and these cases can leave us in
an un-usable state if we keep running (e.g. panicking in a shard split).
In the unlikely event that we get into a crashloop as a result, we'll
rely on kubernetes to back us off.
- Add `test_sharding_split_failures` which exercises a variety of
failure cases during shard split.
## Problem
hyper auto-cancels the request futures on connection close.
`sql_over_http::handle` is not 'drop cancel safe', so we need to do some
other work to make sure connections are queries in the right way.
## Summary of changes
1. tokio::spawn the request handler to resolve the initial cancel-safety
issue
2. share a cancellation token, and cancel it when the request `Service`
is dropped.
3. Add a new log span to be able to track the HTTP connection lifecycle.
## Summary
- Currently we can set stripe size at tenant creation, but it doesn't
mean anything until we have multiple shards
- When onboarding an existing tenant, it will always get a default shard
stripe size, so we would like to be able to pick the actual stripe size
at the point we split.
## Why do this inline with a split?
The alternative to this change would be to have a separate endpoint on
the storage controller for setting the stripe size on a tenant, and only
permit writes to that endpoint when the tenant has only a single shard.
That would work, but be a little bit more work for a client, and not
appreciably simpler (instead of having a special argument to the split
functions, we'd have a special separate endpoint, and a requirement that
the controller must sync its config down to the pageserver before
calling the split API). Either approach would work, but this one feels a
bit more robust end-to-end: the split API is the _very last moment_ that
the stripe size is mutable, so if we aim to set it before splitting, it
makes sense to do it as part of the same operation.
## Problem
Currently we manually register nodes with the storage controller, and
use a script during deploy to register with the cloud control plane.
Rather than extend that script further, nodes should just register on
startup.
## Summary of changes
- Extend the re-attach request to include an optional
NodeRegisterRequest
- If the `register` field is set, handle it like a normal node
registration before executing the normal re-attach work.
- Update tests/neon_local that used to rely on doing an explicit
register step that could be enabled/disabled.

## Problem
On HTTP query timeout, we should try and cancel the current in-flight
SQL query.
## Summary of changes
Trigger a cancellation command in postgres once the timeout is reach
Not a user-facing change, but can break any existing `.neon` directories
created by neon_local, as the name of the database used by the storage
controller changes.
This PR changes all the locations apart from the path of
`control_plane/attachment_service` (waiting for an opportune moment to
do that one, because it's the most conflict-ish wrt ongoing PRs like
#6676 )
This test occasionally fails with a difference in "pg_xact/0000" file
between the local and restored datadirs. My hypothesis is that
something changed in the database between the last explicit checkpoint
and the shutdown. I suspect autovacuum, it could certainly create
transactions.
To fix, be more precise about the point in time that we compare. Shut
down the endpoint first, then read the last LSN (i.e. the shutdown
checkpoint's LSN), from the local disk with pg_controldata. And use
exactly that LSN in the basebackup.
Closes#559
The walproposer pretends to be a walsender in many ways. It has a
WalSnd slot, it claims to be a walsender by calling
MarkPostmasterChildWalSender() etc. But one different to real
walsenders was that the postmaster still treated it as a bgworker
rather than a walsender. The difference is that at shutdown,
walsenders are not killed until the very end, after the checkpointer
process has written the shutdown checkpoint and exited.
As a result, the walproposer always got killed before the shutdown
checkpoint was written, so the shutdown checkpoint never made it to
safekeepers. That's fine in principle, we don't require a clean
shutdown after all. But it also feels a bit silly not to stream the
shutdown checkpoint. It could be useful for initializing hot standby
mode in a read replica, for example.
Change postmaster to treat background workers that have called
MarkPostmasterChildWalSender() as walsenders. That unfortunately
requires another small change in postgres core.
After doing that, walproposers stay alive longer. However, it also
means that the checkpointer will wait for the walproposer to switch to
WALSNDSTATE_STOPPING state, when the checkpointer sends the
PROCSIG_WALSND_INIT_STOPPING signal. We don't have the machinery in
walproposer to receive and handle that signal reliably. Instead, we
mark walproposer as being in WALSNDSTATE_STOPPING always.
In commit 568f91420a, I assumed that shutdown will wait for all the
remaining WAL to be streamed to safekeepers, but before this commit
that was not true, and the test became flaky. This should make it
stable again.
Some tests wrongly assumed that no WAL could have been written between
pg_current_wal_flush_lsn and quick pg stop after it. Fix them by introducing
flush_ep_to_pageserver which first stops the endpoint and then waits till all
committed WAL reaches the pageserver.
In passing extract safekeeper http client to its own module.
All of production is using it now as of
https://github.com/neondatabase/aws/pull/1121
The change in `flaky_tests.py` resets the flakiness detection logic.
The alternative would have been to repeat the choice of io engine in
each test name, which would junk up the various test reports too much.

## Problem
- #6966
- Existing logs aren't pointing to a cause: it looks like heatmap upload
and download are happening, but for some reason the evicted layer isn't
removed on the secondary location.
## Summary of changes
- Assert evicted layer is gone from heatmap before checking its gone
from local disk: this will give clarity on whether the issue is with the
uploads or downloads.
- On assertion failures, log the contents of heatmap.
## Problem
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/6661 changed the layer
flushing logic and led to OOMs in staging.
The issue turned out to be holding on to in-memory layers for too long.
After OOMing we'd need to replay potentially
a lot of WAL.
## Summary of changes
Test that open layers get flushed after the `checkpoint_timeout` config
and do not require WAL reingest upon restart.
The workload creates a number of timelines and writes some data to each,
but not enough to trigger flushes via the `checkpoint_distance` config.
I ran this test against https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/6661
and it was indeed failing.
Extracted from https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/6953
Part of https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/5899
Core Change
-----------
In #6953, we need the ability to scan the log _after_ a specific line
and ignore anything before that line.
This PR changes `log_contains` to returns a tuple of `(matching line,
cursor)`.
Hand that cursor to a subsequent `log_contains` call to search the log
for the next occurrence of the pattern.
Other Changes
-------------
- Inspect all the callsites of `log_contains` to handle the new tuple
return type.
- Above inspection unveiled many callers aren't using `assert
log_contains(...) is not None` but some weaker version of the code that
breaks if `log_contains` ever returns a not-None but falsy value. Fix
that.
- Above changes unveiled that `test_remote_storage_upload_queue_retries`
was using `wait_until` incorrectly; after fixing the usage, I had to
raise the `wait_until` timeout. So, maybe this will fix its flakiness.
Add off-by-default support for lazy queued tenant activation on attach.
This should be useful on bulk migrations as some tenants will be
activated faster due to operations or endpoint startup. Eventually all
tenants will get activated by reusing the same mechanism we have at
startup (`PageserverConf::concurrent_tenant_warmup`).
The difference to lazy attached tenants to startup ones is that we leave
their initial logical size calculation be triggered by WalReceiver or
consumption metrics.

## Problem
The vectored read path proposed in
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/6576 seems
to be functionally correct, but in my testing (see below) it is about 10-20% slower than the naive
sequential vectored implementation.
## Summary of changes
There's three parts to this PR:
1. Supporting vectored blob reads. This is actually trickier than it
sounds because on disk blobs are prefixed with a variable length size header.
Since the blobs are not necessarily fixed size, we need to juggle the offsets
such that the callers can retrieve the blobs from the resulting buffer.
2. Merge disk read requests issued by the vectored read path up to a
maximum size. Again, the merging is complicated by the fact that blobs
are not fixed size. We keep track of the begin and end offset of each blob
and pass them into the vectored blob reader. In turn, the reader will return
a buffer and the offsets at which the blobs begin and end.
3. A benchmark for basebackup requests against tenant with large SLRU
block counts is added. This required a small change to pagebench and a new config
variable for the pageserver which toggles the vectored get validation.
We can probably optimise things further by adding a little bit of
concurrency for our IO. In principle, it's as simple as spawning a task which deals with issuing
IO and doing the serialisation and handling on the parent task which receives input via a
channel.
fixes https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/6889
# Problem
The failure in the last 3 flaky runs on `main` is
```
test_runner/regress/test_remote_storage.py:460: in test_remote_timeline_client_calls_started_metric
churn("a", "b")
test_runner/regress/test_remote_storage.py:457: in churn
assert gc_result["layers_removed"] > 0
E assert 0 > 0
```
That's this code
cd449d66ea/test_runner/regress/test_remote_storage.py (L448-L460)
So, the test expects GC to remove some layers but the GC doesn't.
# Fix
My impression is that the VACUUM isn't re-using pages aggressively
enough, but I can't really prove that. Tried to analyze the layer map
dump but it's too complex.
So, this PR:
- Creates more churn by doing the overwrite twice.
- Forces image layer creation.
It also drive-by removes the redundant call to timeline_compact,
because, timeline_checkpoint already does that internally.
## Problem
Attachment service does not do auth based on JWT scopes.
## Summary of changes
Do JWT based permission checking for requests coming into the attachment
service.
Requests into the attachment service must use different tokens based on
the endpoint:
* `/control` and `/debug` require `admin` scope
* `/upcall` requires `generations_api` scope
* `/v1/...` requires `pageserverapi` scope
Requests into the pageserver from the attachment service must use
`pageserverapi` scope.
Use the remote_timeline_client metrics instead, they work for layer file
uploads and are reasonable close to what the
`pageserver_created_persistent_*` metrics were.
Should we wait for empty upload queue before calling `report_size()`?

## Problem
Previously we always wrote out both legacy and modern tenant config
files. The legacy write enabled rollbacks, but we are long past the
point where that is needed.
We still need the legacy format for situations where someone is running
tenants without generations (that will be yanked as well eventually),
but we can avoid writing it out at all if we do have a generation number
set. We implicitly also avoid writing the legacy config if our mode is
Secondary (secondary mode is newer than generations).
## Summary of changes
- Make writing legacy tenant config conditional on there being no
generation number set.
We set it for neon replica, if primary is running.
Postgres uses this GUC at the start,
to determine if replica should wait for
RUNNING_XACTS from primary or not.
Corresponding cloud PR is
https://github.com/neondatabase/cloud/pull/10183
* Add test hot-standby replica startup.
* Extract oldest_running_xid from XlRunningXits WAL records.

- Add some context to logs
- Add tests for pageserver restarts when managed by storage controller
- Make /location_config tolerate compute hook failures on shard
creations, not just modifications.
## Problem
PR #6834 introduced an assertion that the sets of metric labels on
finished operations should equal those on started operations, which is
not true if no operations have finished yet for a particular set of
labels.
## Summary of changes
- Instead of asserting out, wait and re-check in the case that finished
metrics don't match started
The sharding service didn't have support for S3 disaster recovery.
This PR adds a new endpoint to the attachment service, which is slightly
different from the endpoint on the pageserver, in that it takes the
shard count history of the tenant as json parameters: we need to do
time travel recovery for both the shard count at the target time and the
shard count at the current moment in time, as well as the past shard
counts that either still reference.

## Problem
Where the stripe size is the same order of magnitude as the checkpoint
distance (such as with default settings), tenant shards can easily pass
through `checkpoint_distance` bytes of LSN without actually ingesting
anything. This results in emitting many tiny L0 delta layers.
## Summary of changes
- Multiply checkpoint distance by shard count before comparing with LSN
distance. This is a heuristic and does not guarantee that we won't emit
small layers, but it fixes the issue for typical cases where the writes
in a (checkpoint_distance * shard_count) range of LSN bytes are somewhat
distributed across shards.
- Add a test that checks the size of layers after ingesting to a sharded
tenant; this fails before the fix.

This PR introduces a new vectored implementation of the read path.
The search is basically a DFS if you squint at it long enough.
LayerFringe tracks the next layers to visit and acts as our stack.
Vertices are tuples of (layer, keyspace, lsn range). Continuously
pop the top of the stack (most recent layer) and do all the reads
for one layer at once.
The search maintains a fringe (`LayerFringe`) which tracks all the
layers that intersect the current keyspace being searched. Continuously
pop the top of the fringe (layer with highest LSN) and get all the data
required from the layer in one go.
Said search is done on one timeline at a time. If data is still required for
some keys, then search the ancestor timeline.
Apart from the high level layer traversal, vectored variants have been
introduced for grabbing data from each layer type. They still suffer from
read amplification issues and that will be addressed in a different PR.
You might notice that in some places we duplicate the code for the
existing read path. All of that code will be removed when we switch
the non-vectored read path to proxy into the vectored read path.
In the meantime, we'll have to contend with the extra cruft for the sake
of testing and gentle releasing.

# Problem
Before this PR, on-demand downloads weren't measured per tenant_id.
This makes root-cause analysis of latency spikes harder, requiring us to
resort to log scraping for
```
{neon_service="pageserver"} |= `downloading on-demand` |= `$tenant_id`
```
which can be expensive when zooming out in Grafana.

# Solution / Changes
- Remove the calls_started histogram
- I did the dilegence, there are only 2 dashboards using this histogram,
and in fact only one uses it as a histogram, the other just as a
a counter.
- [Link
1](8115b54d9f/neonprod/dashboards/hkXNF7oVz/dashboard-Z31XmM24k.yaml (L1454)):
`Pageserver Thrashing` dashboard, linked from playbook, will fix.
- [Link
2](8115b54d9f/neonprod/dashboards/CEllzAO4z/dashboard-sJqfNFL4k.yaml (L599)):
one of my personal dashboards, unused for a long time, already broken in
other ways, no need to fix.
- replace `pageserver_remote_timeline_client_calls_unfinished` gauge
with a counter pair
- Required `Clone`-able `IntCounterPair`, made the necessary changes in
the `libs/metrics` crate
- fix tests to deal with the fallout
A subsequent PR will remove a timeline-scoped metric to compensate.
Note that we don't need additional global counters for the per-timeline
counters affected by this PR; we can use the `remote_storage` histogram
for those, which, conveniently, also include the secondary-mode
downloads, which aren't covered by the remote timeline client metrics
(should they?).
## Problem
Proxy already supported HTTP2, but I expect no one is using it because
we don't advertise it in the TLS handshake.
## Summary of changes
#6335 without the websocket changes.
This PR stacks on https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/6814
Observability:
- Because we only persist a subset of our state, and our external API is
pretty high level, it can be hard to get at the detail of what's going
on internally (e.g. the IntentState of a shard).
- Add debug endpoints for getting a full dump of all TenantState and
SchedulerNode objects
- Enrich the /control/v1/node listing endpoint to include full in-memory
detail of `Node` rather than just the `NodePersistence` subset
Consistency checks:
- The storage controller maintains separate in-memory and on-disk
states, by design. To catch subtle bugs, it is useful to occasionally
cross-check these.
- The Scheduler maintains reference counts for shard->node
relationships, which could drift if there was a bug in IntentState:
exhausively cross check them in tests.
## Problem
When investigating test failures
(https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/6813) I noticed we were
doing a bunch of Reconciler runs right after splitting a tenant.
It's because the splitting test does a pageserver restart, and there was
a bug in /re-attach handling, where we would update the generation
correctly in the database and intent state, but not observed state,
thereby triggering a reconciliation on the next call to maybe_reconcile.
This didn't break anything profound (underlying rules about generations
were respected), but caused the storage controller to do an un-needed
extra round of bumping the generation and reconciling.
## Summary of changes
- Start adding metrics to the storage controller
- Assert on the number of reconciles done in test_sharding_split_smoke
- Fix /re-attach to update `observed` such that we don't spuriously
re-reconcile tenants.
Often times the tenants we want to (WAL) DR are the ones which the
pageserver marks as broken. Therefore, we should allow initdb
preservation also for broken tenants.
Fixes#6781.
## Problem
One WAL record can actually produce an arbitrary amount of key value pairs.
This is problematic since it might cause our frozen layers to bloat past the
max allowed size of S3 single shot uploads.
[#6639](https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/6639) introduced a "should roll"
check after every batch of `ingest_batch_size` (100 WAL records by default). This helps,
but the original problem still exists.
## Summary of changes
This patch moves the responsibility of rolling the currently open layer
to the `TimelineWriter`. Previously, this was done ad-hoc via calls
to `check_checkpoint_distance`. The advantages of this approach are:
* ability to split one batch over multiple open layers
* less layer map locking
* remove ad-hoc check_checkpoint_distance calls
More specifically, we track the current size of the open layer in the
writer. On each `put` check whether the current layer should be closed
and a new one opened. Keeping track of the currently open layer results
in less contention on the layer map lock. It only needs to be acquired
on the first write and on writes that require a roll afterwards.
Rolling the open layer can be triggered by:
1. The distance from the last LSN we rolled at. This bounds the amount
of WAL that the safekeepers need to store.
2. The size of the currently open layer.
3. The time since the last roll. It helps safekeepers to regard
pageserver as caught up and suspend activity.
Closes#6624
## Problem
Currently, we don't store `PLATFORM` for Nightly Benchmarks. It

There is O(n^2) issues due to how we store these directories (#6626), so
it's good to keep an eye on them and ensure the numbers stay low.
The new per-timeline metric `pageserver_directory_entries_count`
isn't perfect, namely we don't calculate it every time we attach
the timeline, but only if there is an actual change.
Also, it is a collective metric over multiple scalars. Lastly,
we only emit the metric if it is above a certain threshold.
However, the metric still give a feel for the general size of the timeline.
We care less for small values as the metric is mainly there to
detect and track tenants with large directory counts.
We also expose the directory counts in `TimelineInfo` so that one can
get the detailed size distribution directly via the pageserver's API.

In #6079 it was found that there is no test that executes the scrubber.
We now add such a test, which does the following things:
* create a tenant, write some data
* run the scrubber
* remove the tenant
* run the scrubber again
Each time, the scrubber runs the scan-metadata command. Before #6079 we
would have errored, now we don't.
Fixes#6080
VanillaPostgres constructor prints the "port={port}" line to the
config file, no need to do it in the callers.
The TODO comment that it would be nice if VanillaPostgres could pick
the port by itself is still valid though.
## Problem
usernames and passwords can be URL 'percent' encoded in the connection
string URL provided by serverless driver.
## Summary of changes
Decode the parameters when getting conn info
In neon_local, the default mode is now always 'fast', regardless of
'destroy'. You can override it with the "neon_local endpoint stop
--mode=immediate" flag.
In python tests, we still default to 'immediate' mode when using the
stop_and_destroy() function, and 'fast' with plain stop(). I kept that
to avoid changing behavior in existing tests. I don't think existing
tests depend on it, but I wasn't 100% certain.
This test occasionally fails with a difference in "pg_xact/0000" file
between the local and restored datadirs. My hypothesis is that something
changed in the database between the last explicit checkpoint and the
shutdown. I suspect autovacuum, it could certainly create transactions.
To fix, be more precise about the point in time that we compare. Shut
down the endpoint first, then read the last LSN (i.e. the shutdown
checkpoint's LSN), from the local disk with pg_controldata. And use
exactly that LSN in the basebackup.
Closes#559.
I'm proposing this as an alternative to
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/6662.
- Automatically set a node's availability to Active if it is responsive
in startup_reconcile
- Impose a 5s timeout of HTTP request to list location conf, so that an
unresponsive node can't hang it for minutes
- Do several retries if the request fails with a retryable error, to be
tolerant of concurrent pageserver & storage controller restarts
- Add a readiness hook for use with k8s so that we can tell when the
startup reconciliaton is done and the service is fully ready to do work.
- Add /metrics to the list of un-authenticated endpoints (this is
unrelated but we're touching the line in this PR already, and it fixes
auth error spam in deployed container.)
- A test for the above.
Closes: #6670
