## Problem
The Neon components, built locally and by the GitHub workflow have
slightly different version prefixes (git: vs git-env:)
This does not allow running tests against local builds correctly.
## Summary of changes
The regular expressions were changed to work with both
prefixes.
Commit 263dfba6ee introduced neon extension version 1.5, which included
some new functions and views for metrics. It didn't bump the default
neon extension number yet, so that we could still safely roll back to
the old binary if necessary. This bumps the default version.
Part of #7497, closes#8817.
## Problem
See #8817.
## Summary of changes
**compute_ctl**
- Renew lsn lease as soon as `/configure` updates pageserver_connstr,
use `state_changed` Condvar for synchronization.
**pageserver**
As mentioned in
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/8817#issuecomment-2315768076,
we still want some permanent error reported if a lease cannot be
granted. By considering attachment mode and the added
`lsn_lease_deadline` when processing lease requests, we can also bound
the case of bad requests to a very short period after migration/restart.
- Refactor https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/9024 and move
`lsn_lease_deadline` to `AttachedTenantConf` so timeline can easily
access it.
- Have separate HTTP `init_lsn_lease` and libpq `renew_lsn_lease` API.
- Always do LSN verification for the initial HTTP lease request.
- LSN verification for the renewal is **still done** when tenants are
not in `AttachedSingle` and we have pass the `lsn_lease_deadline`, which
give plenty of time for compute to renew the lease.
**neon_local**
- add and call `timeline_init_lsn_lease` mgmt_api at static endpoint
start. The initial lsn lease http request is sent when we run `cargo
neon endpoint start <static endpoint>`.
## Testing
- Extend `test_readonly_node_gc` to do pageserver restarts and
migration.
## Future Work
- The control plane should make the initial lease request through HTTP
when creating a static endpoint. This is currently only done in
`neon_local`.

## Problem
The latest storage release has generated artifacts for Postgres 17,
so we can enable compatibility tests this version
## Summary of changes
- Unskip `test_backward_compatibility` / `test_forward_compatibility` on
Postgres 17
## Problem
These commits are split off from
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/8971/commits where I was
fixing this to make a better scale test pass -- Vlad also independently
recognized these issues with cloudbench in
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/9062.
1. The storage controller proxies GET requests to pageservers based on
their intent, not the ground truth of where they're really attached.
2. Proxied requests can race with scheduling to tenants, resulting in
404 responses if the request hits the wrong pageserver.
Closes: https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/9062
## Summary of changes
1. If a shard has a running reconciler, then use the database
generation_pageserver to decide who to proxy the request to
2. If such a request gets a 404 response and its scheduled node has
changed since the request was dispatched.
As @koivunej mentioned in the storage channel, for regress test, we
don't need to create a log file for the scrubber, and we should reduce
noisy logs.
## Summary of changes
* Disable log file creation for storage scrubber
* Only log at info level

1. Increase statement_timeout. It defaults to 120 s, which is not quite
enough on slow or busy systems with debug build. On my laptop, the index
creation takes about 100 s. On buildfarm, we've seen failures, e.g:
https://neon-github-public-dev.s3.amazonaws.com/reports/pr-9084/10997888708/index.html#suites/821f97908a487f1d7d3a2a4dd1571e99/db1834bddfe8c5b9/
2. Keep twiddling the LFC size through the whole test. Before, we would
do it for the first 10 seconds, but that only covers a small part of the
pgbench initialization phase. Change the loop so that the pgbench run
time determines how long the test runs, and we keep changing the LFC for
the whole time.
In the passing, also fix bogus test description, copy-pasted from a
completely unrelated test.
Even with the 100 ms interval, on my laptop the pageserver always
becomes available on second attempt, so this saves about 900 ms at
every test startup.
## Problem
We need to be able to run the regression tests against a cloud-based
Neon staging instance to prepare the migration to the arm architecture.
## Summary of changes
Some tests were modified to work on the cloud instance (i.e. added
passwords, server-side copy changed to client-side, etc)

We can't FlushOneBuffer when we're in redo-only mode on PageServer, so
make execution of that function conditional on us not running in
pageserver walredo mode.
The metrics include a histogram of how long we need to wait for a
GetPage request, number of reconnects, and number of requests among
other things.
The metrics are not yet exported anywhere, but you can query them
manually.
Note: This does *not* bump the default version of the 'neon' extension. We
will do that later, as a separate PR. The reason is that this allows us to roll back
the compute image smoothly, if necessary. Once the image that includes the
new extension .so file with the new functions has been rolled out, and we're
confident that we don't need to roll back the image anymore, we can change
default extension version and actually start using the new functions and views.
This is what the view looks like:

If the primary is started at an LSN within the first of a 16 MB WAL
segment, the "long XLOG page header" at the beginning of the segment was
not initialized correctly. That has gone unnnoticed, because under
normal circumstances, nothing looks at the page header. The WAL that is
streamed to the safekeepers starts at the new record's LSN, not at the
beginning of the page, so that bogus page header didn't propagate
elsewhere, and a primary server doesn't normally read the WAL its
written. Which is good because the contents of the page would be bogus
anyway, as it wouldn't contain any of the records before the LSN where
the new record is written.
Except that in the following cases a primary does read its own WAL:
1. When there are two-phase transactions in prepared state at
checkpoint. The checkpointer reads the two-phase state from the
XLOG_XACT_PREPARE record, and writes it to a file in pg_twophase/.
2. Logical decoding reads the WAL starting from the replication slot's
restart LSN.
This PR fixes the problem with two-phase transactions. For that, it's
sufficient to initialize the page header correctly. The checkpointer
only needs to read XLOG_XACT_PREPARE records that were generated after
the server startup, so it's still OK that older WAL is missing / bogus.
I have not investigated if we have a problem with logical decoding,
however. Let's deal with that separately.
Special thanks to @Lzjing-1997, who independently found the same bug
and opened a PR to fix it, although I did not use that PR.
Part of #7497, closes https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/8890.
## Problem
Since leases are in-memory objects, we need to take special care of them
after pageserver restarts and while doing a live migration. The approach
we took for pageserver restart is to wait for at least lease duration
before doing first GC. We want to do the same for live migration. Since
we do not do any GC when a tenant is in `AttachedStale` or
`AttachedMulti` mode, only the transition from `AttachedMulti` to
`AttachedSingle` requires this treatment.
## Summary of changes
- Added `lsn_lease_deadline` field in `GcBlock::reasons`: the tenant is
temporarily blocked from GC until we reach the deadline. This
information does not persist to S3.
- In `GCBlock::start`, skip the GC iteration if we are blocked by the
lsn lease deadline.
- In `TenantManager::upsert_location`, set the lsn_lease_deadline to
`Instant::now() + lsn_lease_length` so the granted leases have a chance
to be renewed before we run GC for the first time after transitioned
from AttachedMulti to AttachedSingle.

misc changes split out from #8855
- **allow cloning the request context in a read-only fashion for
background tasks**
- **propagate endpoint and request context through the jwk cache**
- **only allow password based auth for md5 during testing**
- **remove auth info from conn info**
There's currently no way to just start/stop broker from `neon_local`.
This PR
* adds a sub-command
* uses that sub-command from the test suite instead of the pre-existing
Python `subprocess` based approach.

## Problem
It turns out that we can't rely on external orchestration to promptly
route trafic to the new leader. This is downtime inducing.
Forwarding provides a safe way out.
## Safety
We forward when:
1. Request is not one of ["/control/v1/step_down", "/status", "/ready",
"/metrics"]
2. Current instance is in [`LeadershipStatus::SteppedDown`] state
3. There is a leader in the database to forward to
4. Leader from step (3) is not the current instance
If a storcon instance is persisted in the database, then we know that it
is the current leader.
There's one exception: time between handling step-down request and the
new leader updating the
database.
Let's treat the happy case first. The stepped down node does not produce
any side effects,
since all request handling happens on the leader.
As for the edge case, we are guaranteed to always have a maximum of two
running instances.
Hence, if we are in the edge case scenario the leader persisted in the
database is the
stepped down instance that received the request. Condition (4) above
covers this scenario.
## Summary of changes
* Conversion utilities for reqwest <-> hyper. I'm not happy with these,
but I don't see a better way. Open to suggestions.
* Add request forwarding logic
* Update each request handler. Again, not happy with this. If anyone
knows a nice to wrap the handlers, lmk. Me and Joonas tried :/
* Update each handler to maybe forward
* Tweak tests to showcase new behaviour
pg_distrib_dir doesn't include the Postgres version and only depends
on env variables which cannot change during a test run, so it can be
marked as session-scoped. Similarly, the platform cannot change during
a test run.
There was another copy of it in utils.py. The only difference is that
the version in utils.py tolerates files that are concurrently
removed. That seems fine for the few callers in neon_fixtures.py too.
This should generally be faster when running tests, especially those
that run with higher scales.
Ignoring test_lfc_resize since it seems like we are hitting a query
timeout for some reason that I have yet to investigate. A little bit of
improvemnt is better than none.

Makes it consistent with the "timeline create" and "timeline import"
commands, which allowed you to pass the timeline id as argument. This
also makes it unnecessary to parse the timeline ID from the output in
the python function that calls it.
The tenant ID was not actually generated here but in NeonEnvBuilder.
And the "neon_local init" command hasn't been able to generate the
initial tenant since 8712e1899e anyway.
I wish it worked, but it's been broken for a long time, so let's admit
defeat and remove it.
The idea of sharing the same pageserver and safekeeper environment
between tests is still sound, and it could save a lot of time in our
CI. We should perhaps put some time into doing that, but we're better
off starting from scratch than trying to make TEST_SHARED_FIXTURES
work in its current form.
Currently using gc blocking and unblocking with storage controller
managed pageservers is painful. Implement the API on storage controller.
Fixes: #8893
For control-plane managed tenants, we have the page in the admin console
that lists all tenants on a specific pageserver. But for
storage-controller managed ones, we don't have that functionality for
now.

Adds an API that lists all shards on a given node (intention + observed)

## Problem
We want to do AZ aware scheduling, but don't have enough metadata.
## Summary of changes
Introduce a `preferred_az_id` concept for each managed tenant shard.
In a future PR, the scheduler will use this as a soft preference.
The idea is to try and keep the shard attachments within the same AZ.
Under the assumption that the compute was placed in the correct AZ,
this reduces the chances of cross AZ trafic from between compute and PS.
In terms of code changes we:
1. Add a new nullable `preferred_az_id` column to the `tenant_shards`
table. Also include an in-memory counterpart.
2. Populate the preferred az on tenant creation and shard splits.
3. Add an endpoint which allows to bulk-set preferred AZs.
(3) gives us the migration path. I'll write a script which queries the
cplane db in the region and sets the preferred az of all shards with an
active compute to the AZ of said compute. For shards without an active compute,
I'll use the AZ of the currently attached pageserver
since this is what cplane uses now to schedule computes.
## Problem
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/8852 introduced a new nullable
column for the `nodes` table: `availability_zone_id`
## Summary of changes
* Make neon local and the test suite always provide an az id
* Make the az id field in the ps registration request mandatory
* Migrate the column to non-nullable and adjust in memory state
accordingly
* Remove the code that was used to populate the az id for pre-existing
nodes
Sometimes, the benchmarks fail to start up pageserver in 10s without any
obvious reason. Benchmarks run sequentially on otherwise idle runners.
Try running `sync(2)` after each bench to force a cleaner slate.
Implement this via:
- SYNC_AFTER_EACH_TEST environment variable enabled autouse fixture
- autouse fixture seems to be outermost fixture, so it works as expected
- set SYNC_AFTER_EACH_TEST=true for benchmarks in build_and_test
workflow

This PR simplifies the pageserver configuration parsing as follows:
* introduce the `pageserver_api::config::ConfigToml` type
* implement `Default` for `ConfigToml`
* use serde derive to do the brain-dead leg-work of processing the toml
document
* use `serde(default)` to fill in default values
* in `pageserver` crate:
* use `toml_edit` to deserialize the pageserver.toml string into a
`ConfigToml`
* `PageServerConfig::parse_and_validate` then
* consumes the `ConfigToml`
* destructures it exhaustively into its constituent fields
* constructs the `PageServerConfig`
The rules are:
* in `ConfigToml`, use `deny_unknown_fields` everywhere
* static default values go in `pageserver_api`
* if there cannot be a static default value (e.g. which default IO
engine to use, because it depends on the runtime), make the field in
`ConfigToml` an `Option`
* if runtime-augmentation of a value is needed, do that in
`parse_and_validate`
* a good example is `virtual_file_io_engine` or `l0_flush`, both of
which need to execute code to determine the effective value in
`PageServerConf`
The benefits:
* massive amount of brain-dead repetitive code can be deleted
* "unused variable" compile-time errors when removing a config value,
due to the exhaustive destructuring in `parse_and_validate`
* compile-time errors guide you when adding a new config field
Drawbacks:
* serde derive is sometimes a bit too magical
* `deny_unknown_fields` is easy to miss
Future Work / Benefits:
* make `neon_local` use `pageserver_api` to construct `ConfigToml` and
write it to `pageserver.toml`
* This provides more type safety / coompile-time errors than the current
approach.
### Refs
Fixes#3682
### Future Work
* `remote_storage` deser doesn't reject unknown fields
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/8915
* clean up `libs/pageserver_api/src/config.rs` further
* break up into multiple files, at least for tenant config
* move `models` as appropriate / refine distinction between config and
API models / be explicit about when it's the same
* use `pub(crate)` visibility on `mod defaults` to detect stale values
