## 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
## Problem
Taking my ideas from https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/6283 and
doing a bit less radical changes. smaller commits.
We currently don't report error classifications in proxy as the current
error handling made it hard to do so.
## Summary of changes
1. Add a `ReportableError` trait that all errors will implement. This
provides the error classification functionality.
2. Handle Client requests a strongly typed error
* this error is a `ReportableError` and is logged appropriately
3. The handle client error only has a few possible error types, to
account for the fact that at this point errors should be returned to the
user.
## Problem
Drizzle needs to be able to configure the array_mode flag per query.
## Summary of changes
Adds an array_mode flag to the query data json that will otherwise
default to the header flag.
## Problem
The password check logic for the sql-over-http is a bit non-intuitive.
## Summary of changes
1. Perform scram auth using the same logic as for websocket cleartext
password.
2. Split establish connection logic and connection pool.
3. Parallelize param parsing logic with authentication + wake compute.
4. Limit the total number of clients
The solution we ended up for `backoff::retry` requires always cloning of
cancellation tokens even though there is just `.await`. Fix that, and
also turn the return type into `Option<Result<T, E>>` avoiding the need
for the `E::cancelled()` fn passed in.

## Problem
Running some memory profiling with high concurrent request rate shows
seemingly some memory fragmentation.
## Summary of changes
Eventually, we will want to separate global memory (caches) from local
memory (per connection handshake and per passthrough).
Using a string interner for project info cache helps reduce some of the
fragmentation of the global cache by having a single heap dedicated to
project strings, and not scattering them throughout all a requests.
At the same time, the interned key is 4 bytes vs the 24 bytes that
`SmolStr` offers.
Important: we should only store verified strings in the interner because
there's no way to remove them afterwards. Good for caching responses
from console.
## Problem
not really any problem, just some drive-by changes
## Summary of changes
1. move wake compute
2. move json processing
3. move handle_try_wake
4. move test backend to api provider
5. reduce wake-compute concerns
6. remove duplicate wake-compute loop
## Problem
Follow up to #5461
In my memory usage/fragmentation measurements, these metrics came up as
a large source of small allocations. The replacement metric has been in
use for a long time now so I think it's good to finally remove this.
Per-endpoint data is still tracked elsewhere
## Summary of changes
remove the per-client bytes metrics
## Problem
Right now if get_role_secret response wasn't cached (e.g. cache already
reached max size) it will send the second (exactly the same request).
## Summary of changes
Avoid needless request.
## Problem
Taking my ideas from https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/6283 and
doing a bit less radical changes. smaller commits.
Proxy flow was quite deeply nested, which makes adding more interesting
error handling quite tricky.
## Summary of changes
I recommend reviewing commit by commit.
1. move handshake logic into a separate file
2. move passthrough logic into a separate file
3. no longer accept a closure in CancelMap session logic
4. Remove connect_to_db, copy logic into handle_client
5. flatten auth_and_wake_compute in authenticate
6. record info for link auth
## Problem
Measuring cardinality using logs is expensive and slow.
## Summary of changes
Implement a pre-aggregated HyperLogLog-based cardinality estimate.
HyperLogLog estimates the cardinality of a set by using the probability
that the uniform hash of a value will have a run of n 0s at the end is
`1/2^n`, therefore, having observed a run of `n` 0s suggests we have
measured `2^n` distinct values. By using multiple shards, we can use the
harmonic mean to get a more accurate estimate.
We record this into a Prometheus time-series. HyperLogLog counts can be
merged by taking the `max` of each shard. We can apply a `max_over_time`
in order to find the estimate of cardinality of distinct values over
time
## Problem
http-over-sql allowes host to be in format api.aws.... however it's not
the case for the websocket flow.
## Summary of changes
Relax endpoint check for the ws serverless connections.
## Problem
too many string based IDs. easy to mix up ID types.
## Summary of changes
Add a bunch of `SmolStr` wrappers that provide convenience methods but
are type safe
## Problem
Parsing the IP address at check time is a little wasteful.
## Summary of changes
Parse the IP when we get it from cplane. Adding a `None` variant to
still allow malformed patterns
## Problem
There are a lot of responses with 404 role not found error, which are
not getting cached in proxy.
## Summary of changes
If there was returned an empty secret but with the project_id, store it
in cache.
## Problem
In https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/6283 I did a couple changes
that weren't directly related to the goal of extracting the state
machine, so I'm putting them here
## Summary of changes
- move postgres vs console provider into another enum
- reduce error cases for link auth
- slightly refactor link flow
## Problem
Currently we store in cache even if the project is undefined. That makes
invalidation impossible.
## Summary of changes
Do not store if project id is empty.
## Problem
Some fields were missed in the initial spec.
## Summary of changes
Adds a success boolean (defaults to false unless specifically marked as
successful).
Adds a duration_us integer that tracks how many microseconds were taken
from session start through to request completion.
## Problem
HTTP connection pool was not respecting the PitR options.
## Summary of changes
1. refactor neon_options a bit to allow easier access to cache_key
2. make HTTP not go through `StartupMessageParams`
3. expose SNI processing to replace what was removed in step 2.
## Problem
Current cache doesn't support any updates from the cplane.
## Summary of changes
* Added redis notifier listner.
* Added cache which can be invalidated with the notifier. If the
notifier is not available, it's just a normal ttl cache.
* Updated cplane api.
The motivation behind this organization of the data is the following:
* In the Neon data model there are projects. Projects could have
multiple branches and each branch could have more than one endpoint.
* Also there is one special `main` branch.
* Password reset works per branch.
* Allowed IPs are the same for every branch in the project (except,
maybe, the main one).
* The main branch can be changed to the other branch.
* The endpoint can be moved between branches.
Every event described above requires some special processing on the
porxy (or cplane) side.
The idea of invalidating for the project is that whenever one of the
events above is happening with the project, proxy can invalidate all
entries for the entire project.
This approach also requires some additional API change (returning
project_id inside the auth info).
## Summary of changes
### RequestMonitoring
We want to add an event stream with information on each request for
easier analysis than what we can do with diagnostic logs alone
(https://github.com/neondatabase/cloud/issues/8807). This
RequestMonitoring will keep a record of the final state of a request. On
drop it will be pushed into a queue to be uploaded.
Because this context is a bag of data, I don't want this information to
impact logic of request handling. I personally think that weakly typed
data (such as all these options) makes for spaghetti code. I will
however allow for this data to impact rate-limiting and blocking of
requests, as this does not _really_ change how a request is handled.
### Parquet
Each `RequestMonitoring` is flushed into a channel where it is converted
into `RequestData`, which is accumulated into parquet files. Each file
will have a certain number of rows per row group, and several row groups
will eventually fill up the file, which we then upload to S3.
We will also upload smaller files if they take too long to construct.
## Problem
control plane should be able to return domain names and not just IP
addresses.
## Summary of changes
1. add regression tests
2. use rsplit to split the port from the back, then trim the ipv6
brackets
## Problem
HTTP connection pool will grow without being pruned
## Summary of changes
Remove connection clients from pools once idle, or once they exit.
Periodically clear pool shards.
GC Logic:
Each shard contains a hashmap of `Arc<EndpointPool>`s.
Each connection stores a `Weak<EndpointPool>`.
During a GC sweep, we take a random shard write lock, and check that if
any of the `Arc<EndpointPool>`s are unique (using `Arc::get_mut`).
- If they are unique, then we check that the endpoint-pool is empty, and
sweep if it is.
- If they are not unique, then the endpoint-pool is in active use and we
don't sweep.
- Idle connections will self-clear from the endpoint-pool after 5
minutes.
Technically, the uniqueness of the endpoint-pool should be enough to
consider it empty, but the connection count check is done for
completeness sake.
## Problem
If the user reset password, cache could receive this information only
after `ttl` minutes.
## Summary of changes
Invalidate password on auth failure.
## Problem
Currently if we are getting many consecutive connections to the same
user/ep we will send a lot of traffic to the console.
## Summary of changes
Cache with ttl=4min proxy_get_role_secret response.
Note: this is the temporary hack, notifier listener is WIP.
## Problem
The `src/proxy.rs` file is far too large
## Summary of changes
Creates 3 new files:
```
src/metrics.rs
src/proxy/retry.rs
src/proxy/connect_compute.rs
```
## Summary of changes
saw some low-hanging codecov improvements. even if code coverage is
somewhat of a pointless game, might as well add tests where we can and
delete code if it's unused
## Problem
The websockets gauge for active db connections seems to be growing more
than the gauge for client connections over websockets, which does not
make sense.
## Summary of changes
refactor how our counter-pair gauges are represented. not sure if this
will improve the problem, but it should be harder to mess-up the
counters. The API is much nicer though now and doesn't require
scopeguard::defer hacks
## Problem
Single rate bucket is limited in usefulness
## Summary of changes
Introduce a secondary bucket allowing an average of 200 requests per
second over 1 minute, and a tertiary bucket allowing an average of 100
requests per second over 10 minutes.
Configured by using a format like
```sh
proxy --endpoint-rps-limit 300@1s --endpoint-rps-limit 100@10s --endpoint-rps-limit 50@1m
```
If the bucket limits are inconsistent, an error is returned on startup
```
$ proxy --endpoint-rps-limit 300@1s --endpoint-rps-limit 10@10s
Error: invalid endpoint RPS limits. 10@10s allows fewer requests per bucket than 300@1s (100 vs 300)
```
This is needed to allow use of batch queries from browsers.
## Problem
SQL-over-HTTP batch queries fail from web browsers because the relevant
headers, `Neon-Batch-isolation-Level` and `Neon-Batch-Read-Only`, are
not included in the server's OPTIONS response. I think we simply forgot
to add them when implementing the batch query feature.
## Summary of changes
Added `Neon-Batch-Isolation-Level` and `Neon-Batch-Read-Only` to the
OPTIONS response.
## Problem
1. Using chrono for durations only is wasteful
2. The arc/mutex was not being utilised
3. Locking every shard in the dashmap every GC could cause latency
spikes
4. More buckets
## Summary of changes
1. Use `Instant` instead of `NaiveTime`.
2. Remove the `Arc<Mutex<_>>` wrapper, utilising that dashmap entry
returns mut access
3. Clear only a random shard, update gc interval accordingly
4. Multiple buckets can be checked before allowing access
When I benchmarked the check function, it took on average 811ns when
multithreaded over the course of 10 million checks.
## Problem
In snowflake logs currently there is no information about the protocol,
that the client uses.
## Summary of changes
Propagate the information about the protocol together with the app_name.
In format: `{app_name}/{sql_over_http/tcp/ws}`.
This will give to @stepashka more observability on what our clients are
using.
## Problem
The cancellation code was confusing and error prone (as seen before in
our memory leaks).
## Summary of changes
* Use the new `TaskTracker` primitve instead of JoinSet to gracefully
wait for tasks to shutdown.
* Updated libs/utils/completion to use `TaskTracker`
* Remove `tokio::select` in favour of `futures::future::select` in a
specialised `run_until_cancelled()` helper function
## Problem
For channel binding failed messages we were still saying "channel
binding not supported" in the errors.
## Summary of changes
Fix error messages
## Problem
It looks like because of reallocation of the buckets in previous PR, the
metric is broken in graphana.
## Summary of changes
Renamed the metric.
## Problem
Limit the number of open connections between the control plane and
proxy.
## Summary of changes
Enable dynamic rate limiter in prod.
Unfortunately the latency metrics are a bit broken, but from logs I see
that on staging for the past 7 days only 2 times latency for acquiring
was greater than 1ms (for most of the cases it's insignificant).
## Problem
no problem
## Summary of changes
replaces boxstr with arcstr as it's cheaper to clone. mild perf
improvement.
probably should look into other smallstring optimsations tbh, they will
likely be even better. The longest endpoint name I was able to construct
is something like `ep-weathered-wildflower-12345678` which is 32 bytes.
Most string optimisations top out at 23 bytes
## Problem
fixes#5654 - WakeComputeErrors occuring during a connect_to_compute got
propagated as IO errors, which get forwarded to the user as "Couldn't
connect to compute node" with no helpful message.
## Summary of changes
Handle WakeComputeError during ConnectionError properly
