## 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
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
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
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
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)
```
## 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
Per-project IP allowlist:
https://github.com/neondatabase/cloud/issues/8116
## Summary of changes
Implemented IP filtering on the proxy side.
To retrieve ip allowlist for all scenarios, added `get_auth_info` call
to the control plane for:
* sql-over-http
* password_hack
* cleartext_hack
Added cache with ttl for sql-over-http path
This might slow down a bit, consider using redis in the future.

## Problem
#5123
## Summary of changes
Add `--sql-over-http-pool-opt-in true` default cli arg. Allows us to set
`--sql-over-http-pool-opt-in false` region-by-region
## Problem
A user can perform many database connections at the same instant of time
- these will all cache miss and materialise as requests to the control
plane. #5705
## Summary of changes
I am using a `DashMap` (a sharded `RwLock<HashMap>`) of endpoints ->
semaphores to apply a limiter. If the limiter is enabled (permits > 0),
the semaphore will be retrieved per endpoint and a permit will be
awaited before continuing to call the wake_compute endpoint.
### Important details
This dashmap would grow uncontrollably without maintenance. It's not a
cache so I don't think an LRU-based reclamation makes sense. Instead,
I've made use of the sharding functionality of DashMap to lock a single
shard and clear out unused semaphores periodically.
I ran a test in release, using 128 tokio tasks among 12 threads each
pushing 1000 entries into the map per second, clearing a shard every 2
seconds (64 second epoch with 32 shards). The endpoint names were
sampled from a gamma distribution to make sure some overlap would occur,
and each permit was held for 1ms. The histogram for time to clear each
shard settled between 256-512us without any variance in my testing.
Holding a lock for under a millisecond for 1 of the shards does not
concern me as blocking
- Add a new util `project_build_tag` macro, similar to
`project_git_version`
- Update the `set_build_info_metric` to accept and make use of
`build_tag` info
- Update all codes which use the `set_build_info_metric`
## Problem
Our serverless backend was a bit jumbled. As a comment indicated, we
were handling SQL-over-HTTP in our `websocket.rs` file.
I've extracted out the `sql_over_http` and `websocket` files from the
`http` module and put them into a new module called `serverless`.
## Summary of changes
```sh
mkdir proxy/src/serverless
mv proxy/src/http/{conn_pool,sql_over_http,websocket}.rs proxy/src/serverless/
mv proxy/src/http/server.rs proxy/src/http/health_server.rs
mv proxy/src/metrics proxy/src/usage_metrics.rs
```
I have also extracted the hyper server and handler from websocket.rs
into `serverless.rs`
## Problem
We need a flag to require proxy protocol (prerequisite for #5416)
## Summary of changes
Add a cli flag to require client IP addresses. Error if IP address is
missing when the flag is active.
## Problem
It took me a while to understand the purpose of all the tasks spawned in
the main functions.
## Summary of changes
Utilising the type system and less macros, plus much more comments,
document the shutdown procedure of each task in detail
In order to not to create NodePorts for each compute we can setup
services that accept connections on wildcard domains and then use
information from domain name to route connection to some internal
service. There are ready solutions for HTTPS and TLS connections
but postgresql protocol uses opportunistic TLS and we haven't found
any ready solutions.
This patch introduces `pg_sni_router` which routes connections to
`aaa--bbb--123.external.domain` to `aaa.bbb.123.internal.domain`.
In the long run we can avoid console -> compute psql communications,
but now this router seems to be the easier way forward.
