## Problem
In 89275f6c1e we fixed an issue, when we were dropping db in Postgres
even though cplane request failed. Yet, it introduced a new problem that
we now de-register db in cplane even if we didn't actually drop it in
Postgres.
## Summary of changes
Here we revert extension change, so we now again may leave db in invalid
state after failed drop. Instead, `compute_ctl` is now responsible for
cleaning up invalid databases during full configuration. Thus, there are
two ways of recovering from failed DROP DATABASE:
1. User can just repeat DROP DATABASE, same as in Vanilla Postgres.
2. If they didn't, then on next full configuration (dbs / roles changes
in the API; password reset; or data availability check) invalid db
will be cleaned up in the Postgres and re-created by `compute_ctl`. So
again it follows pretty much the same semantics as Vanilla Postgres --
you need to drop it again after failed drop.
That way, we have a recovery trajectory for both problems.
See this commit for info about `invalid` db state:
a4b4cc1d60
According to it:
> An invalid database cannot be connected to anymore, but can still be
dropped.
While on it, this commit also fixes another issue, when `compute_ctl`
was trying to connect to databases with `ALLOW CONNECTIONS false`. Now
it will just skip them.
Fixes#5435
Adds prototype-level support for [Azure blob storage](https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/products/storage/blobs). Some corners were cut, see the TODOs and the followup issue #5567 for details.
Steps to try it out:
* Create a storage account with block blobs (this is a per-storage
account setting).
* Create a container inside that storage account.
* Set the appropriate env vars: `AZURE_STORAGE_ACCOUNT,
AZURE_STORAGE_ACCESS_KEY, REMOTE_STORAGE_AZURE_CONTAINER,
REMOTE_STORAGE_AZURE_REGION`
* Set the env var `ENABLE_REAL_AZURE_REMOTE_STORAGE=y` and run `cargo
test -p remote_storage azure`
Fixes #5562
## Problem
When we got an error in the payload of a DeleteObjects response, we only
logged how many errors, not what they were.
## Summary of changes
Log up to 10 specific errors. We do not log all of them because that
would be up to 1000 log lines per request.
## Problem
Writes to the postgres client socket from the page server were not
wrapped in cancellation handling, so a stuck client connection could
prevent tenant shutdowwn.
## Summary of changes
All the places we call flush() to write to the socket, we should be
respecting the cancellation token for the task.
In this PR, I explicitly pass around a CancellationToken rather than
doing inline `task_mgr::shutdown_token` calls, to avoid coupling it to
the global task_mgr state and make it easier to refactor later.
I have some follow-on commits that add a Shutdown variant to QueryError
and use it more extensively, but that's pure refactor so will keep
separate from this bug fix PR.

Doesn't do an upgrade of rustc to 1.73.0 as we want to wait for the
cargo response of the curl CVE before updating. In preparation for an
update, we address the clippy lints that are newly firing in 1.73.0.
503 Resource Unavailable appears as error in logs, but is not really an
error which should ever fail a test on, or even log an error in prod,
[evidence].
Changes:
- log 503 as `info!` level
- use `Cow<'static, str>` instead of `String`
- add an additional `wait_until_tenant_active` in
`test_actually_duplicate_l1`
We ought to have in tests "wait for tenants to complete loading" but
this is easier to implement for now.

## Problem
These changes are part of building seamless tenant migration, as
described in the RFC:
- https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/5029
## Summary of changes
- A new configuration type `LocationConf` supersedes `TenantConfOpt` for
storing a tenant's configuration in the pageserver repo dir. It contains
`TenantConfOpt`, as well as a new `mode` attribute that describes what
kind of location this is (secondary, attached, attachment mode etc). It
is written to a file called `config-v1` instead of `config` -- this
prepares us for neatly making any other profound changes to the format
of the file in future. Forward compat for existing pageserver code is
achieved by writing out both old and new style files. Backward compat is
achieved by checking for the old-style file if the new one isn't found.
- The `TenantMap` type changes, to hold `TenantSlot` instead of just
`Tenant`. The `Tenant` type continues to be used for attached tenants
only. Tenants in other states (such as secondaries) are represented by a
different variant of `TenantSlot`.
- Where `Tenant` & `Timeline` used to hold an Arc<Mutex<TenantConfOpt>>,
they now hold a reference to a AttachedTenantConf, which includes the
extra information from LocationConf. This enables them to know the
current attachment mode.
- The attachment mode is used as an advisory input to decide whether to
do compaction and GC (AttachedStale is meant to avoid doing uploads,
AttachedMulti is meant to avoid doing deletions).
- A new HTTP API is added at `PUT /tenants/<tenant_id>/location_config`
to drive new location configuration. This provides a superset of the
functionality of attach/detach/load/ignore:
- Attaching a tenant is just configuring it in an attached state
- Detaching a tenant is configuring it to a detached state
- Loading a tenant is just the same as attaching it
- Ignoring a tenant is the same as configuring it into Secondary with
warm=false (i.e. retain the files on disk but do nothing else).
Caveats:
- AttachedMulti tenants don't do compaction in this PR, but they do in
the follow on #5397
- Concurrent updates to the `location_config` API are not handled
elegantly in this PR, a better mechanism is added in the follow on
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/5367
- Secondary mode is just a placeholder in this PR: the code to upload
heatmaps and do downloads on secondary locations will be added in a
later PR (but that shouldn't change any external interfaces)

## Problem
In #5383 this configuration was added, but it missed the parts of the
Builder class that let it actually be used.
## Summary of changes
Add `control_plane_api_token` hooks to PageserverConfigBuilder
If the cgroup integration was not enabled, this would cause compute_ctl
to leak memory.
Thankfully, we never use vm-monitor *without* the cgroup handling
enabled, so this wasn't actually impacting us, but... it still looked
suspicious, so figured it was worth changing.
Fixes#4689 by replacing all of `std::Path` , `std::PathBuf` with
`camino::Utf8Path`, `camino::Utf8PathBuf` in
- pageserver
- safekeeper
- control_plane
- libs/remote_storage

## Problem
The 500 status code should only be used for bugs or unrecoverable
failures: situations we did not expect. Currently, the pageserver is
misusing this response code for some situations that are totally normal,
like requests targeting tenants that are in the process of activating.
The 503 response is a convenient catch-all for "I can't right now, but I
will be able to".
## Summary of changes
- Change some transient availability error conditions to return 503
instead of 500
- Update the HTTP client configuration in integration tests to retry on
503
After these changes, things like creating a tenant and then trying to
create a timeline within it will no longer require carefully checking
its status first, or retrying on 500s. Instead, a client which is
properly configured to retry on 503 can quietly handle such situations.
## Problem
We need to count metrics always when a connection is open. Not only when
the transfer is 0.
We also need to count bytes usage for HTTP.
## Summary of changes
New structure for usage metrics. A `DashMap<Ids, Arc<Counters>>`.
If the arc has 1 owner (the map) then I can conclude that no connections
are open.
If the counters has "open_connections" non zero, then I can conclude a
new connection was opened in the last interval and should be reported
on.
Also, keep count of how many bytes processed for HTTP and report it
here.
## Problem
Over the past couple days, we've had a couple VMs hit issues with
postgres getting hit by memory.high throttling, even after #5303 was
supposed to fix that. The tl;dr of those issues is that because
vm-monitor startup sets the file cache size first, before interacting
with the cgroup, cgroup throttling can mean we timeout connecting to the
file cache and never reset the cgroup, even if memory has been upscaled
since then.
See e.g.:
- https://neondb.slack.com/archives/C03F5SM1N02/p1695218132208249
- https://neondb.slack.com/archives/C03F5SM1N02/p1695314613696659
## Summary of changes
This PR adds an additional step into vm-monitor startup, where we first
set the cgroup's memory.high value to 'max', removing the capacity for
throttling. This preferable to just setting memory.high before the file
cache, because it's theoretically possible that the new value of
memory.high could still be less than the current memory usage, in which
case postgres could continue to be throttled without sufficient memory
events to relieve that.
Implementing this properly involved adding a method to our internal
cgroup interface, and it seemed like there was duplicated functionality
there, so this PR unifies that as well, making things a bit more
consistent.
## Problem
Control plane API calls in prod will need authentication.
## Summary of changes
`control_plane_api_token` config is loaded and set as HTTP
`Authorization` header.
Closes: https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/5139
## Problem
Pageservers must not delete objects or advertise updates to
remote_consistent_lsn without checking that they hold the latest
generation for the tenant in question (see [the RFC](
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/blob/main/docs/rfcs/025-generation-numbers.md))
In this PR:
- A new "deletion queue" subsystem is introduced, through which
deletions flow
- `RemoteTimelineClient` is modified to send deletions through the
deletion queue:
- For GC & compaction, deletions flow through the full generation
verifying process
- For timeline deletions, deletions take a fast path that bypasses
generation verification
- The `last_uploaded_consistent_lsn` value in `UploadQueue` is replaced
with a mechanism that maintains a "projected" lsn (equivalent to the
previous property), and a "visible" LSN (which is the one that we may
share with safekeepers).
- Until `control_plane_api` is set, all deletions skip generation
validation
- Tests are introduced for the new functionality in
`test_pageserver_generations.py`
Once this lands, if a pageserver is configured with the
`control_plane_api` configuration added in
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/5163, it becomes safe to
attach a tenant to multiple pageservers concurrently.

Fixes#5072. See proof from
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/5072#issuecomment-1735580798.
Turns out multiple threads can get the same nanoseconds since epoch, so
switch to using millis (for finding the prefix later on) and randomness
via `thread_rng` (protect against adversial ci runners).
Also changes the "per test looking alike" prefix to more "general"
prefix.
Split off from #5297. Builds upon #5326. Handles original review
comments which I did not move to earlier split PRs. Completes test
support for verifying events by notifying of the last batch of events.
Adds cleaning up of tempfiles left because of an unlucky shutdown or
SIGKILL.
Finally closes#5175.

Write collected metrics to disk to recover previously sent metrics on
restart.
Recover the previously collected metrics during startup, send them over
at right time
- send cached synthetic size before actual is calculated
- when `last_record_lsn` rolls back on startup
- stay at last sent `written_size` metric
- send `written_size_delta_bytes` metric as 0
Add test support: stateful verification of events in python tests.
Fixes: #5206
Cc: #5175 (loggings, will be enhanced in follow-up)
Split off from #5297.
There should be no functional changes here:
- refactor tenant metric "production" like previously timeline, allows
unit testing, though not interesting enough yet to test
- introduce type aliases for tuples
- extra refactoring for `collect`, was initially thinking it was useful
but will do a inline later
- shorter binding names
- support for future allocation reuse quests with IdempotencyKey
- move code out of tokio::select to make it rustfmt-able
- generification, allow later replacement of `&'static str` with enum
- add tests that assert sent event contents exactly

This adds PostgreSQL 16 as a vendored postgresql version, and adapts the

Some VMs, when already scaled up as much as possible, end up spamming
the autoscaler-agent with upscale requests that will never be fulfilled.
If postgres is using memory greater than the cgroup's memory.high, it
can emit new memory.high events 1000 times per second, which... just
means unnecessary load on the rest of the system.
This changes the vm-monitor so that we skip sending upscale requests if
we already sent one within the last second, to avoid spamming the
autoscaler-agent. This matches previous behavior that the vm-informant
hand.
Prepare to upgrade rust version to latest stable.
- `rustfmt` has learned to format `let irrefutable = $expr else { ...
};` blocks
- There's a new warning about virtual (workspace) crate resolver, picked
the latest resolver as I suspect everyone would expect it to be the
latest; should not matter anyways
- Some new clippies, which seem alright
Add a `walreceiver_state` field to `TimelineInfo` (response of `GET /v1/tenant/:tenant_id/timeline/:timeline_id`) and while doing that, refactor out a common `Timeline::walreceiver_state(..)`. No OpenAPI changes, because this is an internal debugging addition.
Fixes#3115.

## Problem
- #5050
Closes: https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/5136
## Summary of changes
- A new configuration property `control_plane_api` controls other
functionality in this PR: if it is unset (default) then everything still
works as it does today.
- If `control_plane_api` is set, then on startup we call out to control
plane `/re-attach` endpoint to discover our attachments and their
generations. If an attachment is missing from the response we implicitly
detach the tenant.
- Calls to pageserver `/attach` API may include a `generation`
parameter. If `control_plane_api` is set, then this parameter is
mandatory.
- RemoteTimelineClient's loading of index_part.json is generation-aware,
and will try to load the index_part with the most recent generation <=
its own generation.
- The `neon_local` testing environment now includes a new binary
`attachment_service` which implements the endpoints that the pageserver
requires to operate. This is on by default if running `cargo neon` by
hand. In `test_runner/` tests, it is off by default: existing tests
continue to run with in the legacy generation-less mode.
Caveats:
- The re-attachment during startup assumes that we are only re-attaching
tenants that have previously been attached, and not totally new tenants
-- this relies on the control plane's attachment logic to keep retrying
so that we should eventually see the attach API call. That's important
because the `/re-attach` API doesn't tell us which timelines we should
attach -- we still use local disk state for that. Ref:
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/5173
- Testing: generations are only enabled for one integration test right
now (test_pageserver_restart), as a smoke test that all the machinery
basically works. Writing fuller tests that stress tenant migration will
come later, and involve extending our test fixtures to deal with
multiple pageservers.
- I'm not in love with "attachment_service" as a name for the neon_local
component, but it's not very important because we can easily rename
these test bits whenever we want.
- Limited observability when in re-attach on startup: when I add
generation validation for deletions in a later PR, I want to wrap up the
control plane API calls in some small client class that will expose
metrics for things like errors calling the control plane API, which will
act as a strong red signal that something is not right.

## Problem
To implement split brain protection, we need tenants and timelines to be
aware of their current generation, and use it when composing S3 keys.
## Summary of changes
- A `Generation` type is introduced in the `utils` crate -- it is in
this broadly-visible location because it will later be used from
`control_plane/` as well as `pageserver/`. Generations can be a number,
None, or Broken, to support legacy content (None), and Tenants in the
broken state (Broken).
- Tenant, Timeline, and RemoteTimelineClient all get a generation
attribute
- IndexPart's IndexLayerMetadata has a new `generation` attribute.
Legacy layers' metadata will deserialize to Generation::none().
- Remote paths are composed with a trailing generation suffix. If a
generation is equal to Generation::none() (as it currently always is),
then this suffix is an empty string.
- Functions for composing remote storage paths added in
remote_timeline_client: these avoid the way that we currently always
compose a local path and then strip the prefix, and avoid requiring a
PageserverConf reference on functions that want to create remote paths
(the conf is only needed for local paths). These are less DRY than the
old functions, but remote storage paths are a very rarely changing
thing, so it's better to write out our paths clearly in the functions
than to compose timeline paths from tenant paths, etc.
- Code paths that construct a Tenant take a `generation` argument in
anticipation that we will soon load generations on startup before
constructing Tenant.
Until the whole feature is done, we don't want any generation-ful keys
though: so initially we will carry this everywhere with the special
Generation::none() value.

Part 1 of 2, for moving the file cache onto disk.
Because VMs are created by the control plane (and that's where the
filesystem for the file cache is defined), we can't rely on any kind of
synchronization between releases, so the change needs to be
feature-gated (kind of), with the default remaining the same for now.
See also: neondatabase/cloud#6593
## Problem
Currently, anything that uses backoff::retry will delay the join of its
task by however long its backoff sleep is, multiplied by its max
retries.
Whenever we call a function that sleeps, we should be passing in a
CancellationToken.
## Summary of changes
- Add a `Cancel` type to backoff::retry that wraps a CancellationToken
and an error `Fn` to generate an error if the cancellation token fires.
- In call sites that already run in a `task_mgr` task, use
`shutdown_token()` to provide the token. In other locations, use a dead
`CancellationToken` to satisfy the interface, and leave a TODO to fix it
up when we broaden the use of explicit cancellation tokens.
- move them to pageserver which is the only dependant on the crate fail
- "move" the exported macro to the new module
- support at init time the same failpoints as runtime
Found while debugging test failures and making tests more repeatable by
allowing "exit" from pageserver start via environment variables. Made
those changes to `test_gc_cutoff.py`.

Don't download ext_index.json from s3, but instead receive it as a part of spec from control plane.
This eliminates s3 access for most compute starts,
and also allows us to update extensions spec on the fly
For `delete_objects` it was injecting failures for whole delete_objects operation
and then for every delete it contains. Make it fail once for the whole operation.
## Problem
Deletions can be possibly reordered. Use fsync to avoid the case when
mark file doesnt exist but other tenant/timeline files do.
See added comments.
resolves#4987
#4942 left old metrics in place for migration purposes. It was noticed
that from new metrics the total number of deleted objects was forgotten,
add it.
While reviewing, it was noticed that the delete_object could just be
delete_objects of one.

Originated from test failure where we got SlowDown error from s3.
The patch generalizes `download_retry` to not be download specific.
Resulting `retry` function is moved to utils crate. `download_retries`
is now a thin wrapper around this `retry` function.
To ensure that all needed retries are in place test code now uses
`test_remote_failures=1` setting.
