Monitor free spae in local file system and shrink local file cache size
if it is under watermark.
Neon is using local storage for temp files (temp table + intermediate
results), unlogged relations
and local file cache.
Ideally all space not used for temporary files should be used for local
file cache.
Temporary files and even unlogged relation are intended to have small
life time (because
them can be lost at any moment in case of compute restart).
So the policy is to overcommit local cache size and shrink it if there
is not enough free space.
As far as temporary files are expected to be needed for a short time,
there i no need
to permanently shrink local file cache size. Instead of it, we just
throw away least recently accessed elements
from local file cache, releasing some space on the local disk.

As of #3867, we do artificial layer accesses to layers that will be
needed after the next restart, but not until then because of caches.
With this patch, we also do that for the accesses that the synthetic
size calculation worker does if consumption metrics are enabled.
The actual size calculation is not of importance, but we need to
calculate all of the sizes, so we only call tenant::size::gather_inputs.

Without this, we run it every p.period, which can be quite low. For
example, the running experiment with 3000 tenants in prod uses a period
of 1 minute.
Doing it once per p.threshold is enough to prevent eviction.
fix synthetic size for (last_record_lsn - gc_horizon) < initdb_lsn
Assume a single-timeline project.
If the gc_horizon covers all WAL (last_record_lsn < gc_horizon)
but we have written more data than just initdb, the synthetic
size calculation worker needs to calculate the logical size
at LSN initdb_lsn (Segment BranchStart).
Before this patch, that calculation would incorrectly return
the initial logical size calculation result that we cache in
the Timeline::initial_logical_size. Presumably, because there
was confusion around initdb_lsn vs. initial size calculation.
The fix is to only hand out the initialized_size() only if
the LSN matches.
The distinction in the metrics between "init logical size" and "logical
size" was also incorrect because of the above. So, remove it.
There was a special case for `size != 0`. This was to cover the case of
LogicalSize::empty_initial(), but `initial_part_end` is `None` in that
case, so the new `LogicalSize::initialized_size()` will return None
in that case as well.
Lastly, to prevent confusion like this in the future, rename all
occurrences of `init_lsn` to either just `lsn` or a more specific name.

whoami() was never called, 'is_test' was never set.
'restart()' might be useful, but it wasn't hooked up the CLI so it was
dead code. It's not clear what kind of a restart it should perform,
anyway: just restart Postgres, or re-initialize the data directory
from a fresh basebackup like "stop"+"start" does.
To avoid re-downloading evicted files on restart, re-compute logical
size and partitioning before each threshold based eviction run.

The PR enforces current newest `index_part.json` format in the type
system (version `1`), not allowing any previous forms of it, that were
used in the past.
Similarly, the code to mitigate the
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/3024 issue is now also
removed.
Current code does not produce old formats and extra files in the
index_part.json, in the future we will be able to use
https://github.com/neondatabase/aversion or other approach to make
version transitions more explicit.
See https://neondb.slack.com/archives/C033RQ5SPDH/p1679134185248119 for
the justification on the breaking changes.
We read the pageserver connection string from the spec file, so let's
read the auth token from the same place.
We've been talking about pre-launching compute nodes that are not
associated with any particular tenant at startup, so that the spec
file is delivered to the compute node later. We cannot change the env
variables after the process has been launched.
We still pass the token to 'postgres' binary in the NEON_AUTH_TOKEN
env variable, but compute_ctl is now responsible for setting it.

- Remove the neon.safekeeper_token_env GUC. It was used to set the
name of an environment variable, which was then used in pageserver
and safekeeper connection strings to in place of the
password. Instead, always look up the environment variable called
NEON_AUTH_TOKEN. That's what neon.safekeeper_token_env was always
set to in practice, and I don't see the need for the extra level of
indirection or configurability.
- Instead of substituting $NEON_AUTH_TOKEN in the connection strings,
pass $NEON_AUTH_TOKEN "out-of-band" as the password, when we connect
to the pageserver or safekeepers. That's simpler.
- Also use the password from $NEON_AUTH_TOKEN in compute_ctl, when it
connects to the pageserver to get the "base backup".
Walproposer used to live in the backend, while pagestore_smgr was an
extension. But now that both are part of the neon extension,
walproposer can access the same 'neon_tenant' and 'neon_timeline'
variables as the pageserver_smgr code.
This patch adds two metrics that will enable us to detect *thrashing* of
layers, i.e., repetitions of `eviction, on-demand-download, eviction,
... ` for a given layer.
The first metric counts all layer evictions per timeline. It requires no
further explanation. The second metric counts the layer evictions where
the layer was resident for less than a given threshold.
We can alert on increments to the second metric. The first metric will
serve as a baseline, and further, it's generally interesting, outside of
thrashing.
The second metric's threshold is configurable in PageServerConf and
defaults to 24h. The threshold value is reproduced as a label in the
metric because the counter's value is semantically tied to that
threshold. Since changes to the config and hence the label value are
infrequent, this will have low storage overhead in the metrics storage.
The data source to determine the time that the layer was resident is the
file's `mtime`. Using `mtime` is more of a crutch. It would be better if
Pageserver did its own persistent bookkeeping of residence change events
instead of relying on the filesystem. We had some discussion about this:
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/3809#issuecomment-1470448900
My position is that `mtime` is good enough for now. It can theoretically
jump forward if someone copies files without resetting `mtime`. But that
shouldn't happen in practice. Note that moving files back and forth
doesn't change `mtime`, nor does `chown` or `chmod`. Lastly, `rsync -a`,
which is typically used for filesystem-level backup / restore, correctly
syncs `mtime`.
I've added a label that identifies the data source to keep options open
for a future, better data source than `mtime`. Since this value will
stay the same for the time being, it's not a problem for metrics
storage.
refs https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/3728
The control plane currently only supports EdDSA. We need to either teach
the storage to use EdDSA, or the control plane to use RSA. EdDSA is more
modern, so let's use that.
We could support both, but it would require a little more code and tests,
and we don't really need the flexibility since we control both sides.
This allows you to run without the 'openssl' binary as long as you
don't enable authentication. This becomes more important with the next
commit, which switches the JWT algorithm to EdDSA. LibreSSL does not
support EdDSA, and LibreSSL comes with macOS, so the next commit makes
it much more likely for the key generation to fail for macOS users.
To allow running without a keypair, don't generate the authentication
token in the 'neon_local init' step. Instead, generate a new token on
every request that needs one, using the private key.
Shrinks the total number of metrics collected for each timeline by
about 50%.
See https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/2848. This doesn't fully
solve the problem, we still collect a lot of metrics even with this, but
this gives us a lot of headroom.

Re-enable cgroup shenanigans in VMs, with some special care taken to
make sure that our version of cgroup-tools supports cgroup v2 (debian
bullseye does not, and probably won't because it requires a breaking
change in libcgroup).
This involves manually building libcgroup / cgroup-tools from source,
then copying the output into the final build stage.
We originally considered pulling the package from debian's testing repo
(which is up-to-date), but decided against it. Refer to the PR for more
details.

Create `safekeeper_pg_io_bytes_total` metric to track total amount of
bytes written/read in a postgres connections to safekeepers. This metric
has the following labels:
- `client_az` – availability zone of the connection initiator, or
`"unknown"`
- `sk_az` – availability zone of the safekeeper, or `"unknown"`
- `app_name` – `application_name` of the postgres client
- `dir` – data direction, either `"read"` or `"write"`
- `same_az` – `"true"`, `"false"` or `"unknown"`. Can be derived from
`client_az` and `sk_az`, exists purely for convenience.
This is implemented by passing availability zone in the connection
string, like this: `-c tenant_id=AAA timeline_id=BBB
availability-zone=AZ-1`.
Update ansible deployment scripts to add availability_zone argument
to safekeeper and pageserver in systemd service files.
this failure case was probably introduced by b220ba6, because earlier
the gc would always have run fast enough for restart every 1s. however,
test got added later, so we have just been lucky.
fixes#3824 by allowing this error to happen.

This makes it possible to enable authentication only for the mgmt HTTP
API or the compute API. The HTTP API doesn't need to be directly
accessible from compute nodes, and it can be secured through network
policies. This also allows rolling out authentication in a piecemeal
fashion.
Otherwise they get lost. Normally buffer is empty before proxy pass, but this is
not the case with pipeline mode of out npm driver; fixes connection hangup
introduced by b80fe41af3 for it.
fixes https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/3822
There was a warning for trailing garbage after end-of-tar archive, but
it didn't always work. The reason is that we created a StreamReader
over the original copyin-stream, but performed the check for garbage
on the copyin-stream. There could be some garbage bytes buffered in
the StreamReader, which were not caught by the warning.
I considered turning the the warning into a fatal error, aborting the
import, but I wasn't sure if we handle aborting the import properly.
Do we clean up the timeline directory on error? If we don't, we should
make that more robust, but that's a different story.
Also, normally a valid tar archive ends with two 512-byte blocks of zeros.
The tokio_tar crate stops at the first all-zeros block. Read and check
the second all-zeros block, and error out if it's not there, or contains
something unexpected.
## Describe your changes
When we perform partitioning of the whole key space, we take in account
actual ranges of relation present in the database. So if we have
relation with relid=1 and size 100 and relation with relid=2 with size
200 then result of KeySpace::partition may contain partitions
<100000000..100000099> and <200000000..200000199>. Generated image
layers will contain the same boundaries.
But when GC is checking image coverage to find out of old layer is fully
covered by newer image layer and so can be deleted, it takes in account
only full key range. I.e. if there is delta layer <100000000..300000000>
then it never be garbage collected because image layers
<100000000..100000099> and <200000000..200000199> are not completely
covering it.This is how it looks in practice:
000000067F000032AC00000A300000000000-000000067F000032AC00000A330000000000__000000000F761828
000000067F000032AC00000A31000000001F-000000067F000032AC00000A620000000005__0000000001696070-000000000442A551
000000067F000032AC00000A3300FFFFFFFF-000000067F000032AC00000A650100000000__000000000F761828
So there are two image layers covering delta layer but ... there is a
hole: A330000000000...A3300FFFFFFFF and as a result delta layer is not
collected.

This PR is deeply related with #3673 because it is addressing the same
problem: old layers are not utilized by GC.
