This is in preparation of using compute_ctl to launch postgres nodes
in the neon_local control plane. And seems like a good idea to
separate the public interfaces anyway.
One non-mechanical change here is that the 'metrics' field is moved
under the Mutex, instead of using atomics. We were not using atomics
for performance but for convenience here, and it seems more clear to
not use atomics in the model for the HTTP response type.
This commit adds an option to start compute without spec and then pass
it a valid spec via `POST /configure` API endpoint. This is a main
prerequisite for maintaining the pool of compute nodes in the
control-plane.
For example:
1. Start compute with
```shell
cargo run --bin compute_ctl -- -i no-compute \
-p http://localhost:9095 \
-D compute_pgdata \
-C "postgresql://cloud_admin@127.0.0.1:5434/postgres" \
-b ./pg_install/v15/bin/postgres
```
2. Configure it with
```shell
curl -d "{\"spec\": $(cat ./compute-spec.json)}" http://localhost:3080/configure
```
Internally, it's implemented using a `Condvar` + `Mutex`. Compute spec
is moved under Mutex, as it's now could be updated in the http handler.
Also `RwLock` was replaced with `Mutex` because the latter works well
with `Condvar`.
First part of the neondatabase/cloud#4433
This commit adds a basic HTTP API endpoint that allows scraping the
`pg_stat_statements` data and getting a list of slow queries. New
insights like cache hit rate and so on could be added later.
Extension `pg_stat_statements` is checked / created only if compute
tries to load the corresponding shared library. The latter is configured
by control-plane and currently covered with feature flag.

Previously, we were trying to re-assign owned objects of the already
deleted role. This were causing a crash loop in the case when compute
was restarted with a spec that includes delta operation for role
deletion. To avoid such cases, check that role is still present before
calling `reassign_owned_objects`.
Resolvesneondatabase/cloud#3553
Refactors Compute::prepare_and_run. It's split into subroutines
differently, to make it easier to attach tracing spans to the
different stages. The high-level logic for waiting for Postgres to
exit is moved to the caller.
Replace 'env_logger' with 'tracing', and add `#instrument` directives
to different stages fo the startup process. This is a fairly
mechanical change, except for the changes in 'spec.rs'. 'spec.rs'
contained some complicated formatting, where parts of log messages
were printed directly to stdout with `print`s. That was a bit messed
up because the log normally goes to stderr, but those lines were
printed to stdout. In our docker images, stderr and stdout both go to
the same place so you wouldn't notice, but I don't think it was
intentional.
This changes the log format to the default
'tracing_subscriber::format' format. It's different from the Postgres
log format, however, and because both compute_tools and Postgres print
to the same log, it's now a mix of two different formats. I'm not
sure how the Grafana log parsing pipeline can handle that. If it's a
problem, we can build custom formatter to change the compute_tools log
format to be the same as Postgres's, like it was before this commit,
or we can change the Postgres log format to match tracing_formatter's,
or we can start printing compute_tool's log output to a different
destination than Postgres
We've got at least one user in production that cannot create a
database with a trailing space in the name.
This happens because we use `url` crate for manipulating the
DATABASE_URL, but it follows a standard that doesn't fit really
well with Postgres. For example, it trims all trailing spaces
from the path:
> Remove any leading and trailing C0 control or space from input.
> See: https://url.spec.whatwg.org/#url-parsing
But we used `set_path()` to set database name and it's totally valid
to have trailing spaces in the database name in Postgres.
Thus, use `postgres::config::Config` to modify database name in the
connection details.
Compute node startup time is very important. After launching
PostgreSQL, use 'notify' to be notified immediately when it has
updated the PID file, instead of polling. The polling loop had 100 ms
interval so this shaves up to 100 ms from the startup time.
The loop checked if the TCP port is open for connections, by trying to
connect to it. That seems unnecessary. By the time the postmaster.pid
file says that it's ready, the port should be open. Remove that check.
Including, but not limited to:
* Fixes to neon management code to support walproposer-as-an-extension
* Fix issue in expected output of pg settings serialization.
* Show the logs of a failed --sync-safekeepers process in CI
* Add compat layer for renamed GUCs in postgres.conf
* Update vendor/postgres to the latest origin/main
+ neondatabase/cloud#1103
This adds a couple of control endpoints to simplify compute state
discovery for control-plane. For example, now we may figure out
that Postgres wasn't able to start or basebackup failed within
seconds instead of just blindly polling the compute readiness
for a minute or two.
Also we now expose startup metrics (time of the each step: basebackup,
sync safekeepers, config, total). Console grabs them after each
successful start and report as histogram to prometheus and grafana.
OpenAPI spec is added and up-tp date, but is not currently used in the
console yet.
Currently it's included with minimal changes and lives aside of the main
workspace. Later we may re-use and combine common parts with zenith
control_plane.
This change is mostly needed to unify cloud deployment pipeline:
1.1. build compute-tools image
1.2. build compute-node image based on the freshly built compute-tools
2. build zenith image
So we can roll new compute image and new storage required by it to
operate properly. Also it becomes easier to test console against some
specific version of compute-node/-tools.
