usize/isize type corresponds to the CPU architecture's pointer width,
i.e. 64 bits on a 64-bit platform and 32 bits on a 32-bit platform.
The logical size of a database has nothing to do with the that, so
u64/i64 is more appropriate.
It doesn't make any difference in practice as long as you're on a
64-bit platform, and it's hard to imagine anyone wanting to run the
pageserver on a 32-bit platform, but let's be tidy.
Also add a comment on why we use signed i64 for the logical size
variable, even though size should never be negative. I'm not sure the
reasons are very good, but at least this documents them, and hints at
some possible better solutions.
To flush inmemory layer eventually when no new data arrives, which helps
safekeepers to suspend activity (stop pushing to the broker). Default 10m should
be ok.
Move all the fields that were returned by the wal_receiver endpoint into
timeline_detail. Internally, move those fields from the separate global
WAL_RECEIVERS hash into the LayeredTimeline struct. That way, all the
information about a timeline is kept in one place.
In the passing, I noted that the 'thread_id' field was removed from
WalReceiverEntry in commit e5cb727572, but it forgot to update
openapi_spec.yml. This commit removes that too.
What the WAL receiver really connects to is the safekeeper. The
"producer" term is a bit misleading, as the safekeeper doesn't produce
the WAL, the compute node does.
This change also applies to the name of the field used in the mgmt API
in in the response of the
'/v1/tenant/:tenant_id/timeline/:timeline_id/wal_receiver' endpoint.
AFAICS that's not used anywhere else than one python test, so it
should be OK to change it.
Ref #1902.
- Track the layered timeline's `physical_size` using `pageserver_current_physical_size` metric when updating the layer map.
- Report the local timeline's `physical_size` in timeline GET APIs.
- Add `include-non-incremental-physical-size` URL flag to also report the local timeline's `physical_size_non_incremental` (similar to `logical_size_non_incremental`)
- Add a `UIntGaugeVec` and `UIntGauge` to represent `u64` prometheus metrics

download operations of all timelines for one tenant are now grouped
together so when attach is invoked pageserver downloads all of them
and registers them in a single apply_sync_status_update call so
branches can be used safely with attach/detach
Resolves#1488.
- implemented `GET tenant/:tenant_id/timeline/:timeline_id/wal_receiver` endpoint
- returned `thread_id` in `thread_mgr::spawn`
- added `latest_gc_cutoff_lsn` field to `LocalTimelineInfo` struct
Add tenant config API and 'zenith tenant config' CLI command.
Add 'show' query to pageserver protocol for tenantspecific config parameters
Refactoring: move tenant_config code to a separate module.
Save tenant conf file to tenant's directory, when tenant is created to recover it on pageserver restart.
Ignore error during tenant config loading, while it is not supported by console
Define PiTR interval for GC.
refer #1320
We have these methods for some time in the API, so mentioning them in the
spec could be useful for console (see zenithdb/console#867), as we generate
pageserver HTTP API golang client there.
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.

* Add --id argument to safekeeper setting its unique u64 id.
In preparation for storage node messaging. IDs are supposed to be monotonically
assigned by the console. In tests it is issued by ZenithEnv; at the zenith cli
level and fixtures, string name is completely replaced by integer id. Example
TOML configs are adjusted accordingly.
Sequential ids are chosen over Zid mainly because they are compact and easy to
type/remember.
* add node id to pageserver
This adds node id parameter to pageserver configuration. Also I use a
simple builder to construct pageserver config struct to avoid setting
node id to some temporary invalid value. Some of the changes in test
fixtures are needed to split init and start operations for envrionment.
