## Problem
Importing timelines can't currently be deleted. This is problematic
because:
1. Cplane cannot delete failed imports and we leave the timeline behind.
2. The flow does not support user driven cancellation of the import
## Summary of changes
On the pageserver: I've taken the path of least resistance, extended
`TimelineOrOffloaded`
with a new variant and added handling in the right places. I'm open to
thoughts here,
but I think it turned out better than I was envisioning.
On the storage controller: Again, fairly simple business: when a DELETE
timeline request is
received, we remove the import from the DB and stop any finalization
tasks/futures. In order
to stop finalizations, we track them in-memory. For each finalizing
import, we associate a gate
and a cancellation token.
Note that we delete the entry from the database before cancelling any
finalizations. This is such
that a concurrent request can't progress the import into finalize state
and race with the deletion.
This concern about deleting an import with on-going finalization is
theoretical in the near future.
We are only going to delete importing timelines after the storage
controller reports the failure to
cplane. Alas, the design works for user driven cancellation too.
Closes https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/11897
## Problem
Import up-calls did not enforce the usage of the latest generation. The
import might have finished in one previous generation, but not in the
latest one. Hence, the controller might try to activate a timeline
before it is ready. In theory, that would be fine, but it's tricky to
reason about.
## Summary of Changes
Pageserver provides the current generation in the upcall to the storage
controller and the later validates the generation. If the generation is
stale, we return an error which stops progress of the import job. Note
that the import job will retry the upcall until the stale location is
detached.
I'll add some proper tests for this as part of the [checkpointing
PR](https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/11862).
Closes https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/11884
## Problem
Lifetime of imported timelines (and implicitly the import background
task) has some shortcomings:
1. Timeline activation upon import completion is tricky. Previously, a
timeline that finished importing
after a tenant detach would not get activated and there's concerns about
the safety of activating
concurrently with shut-down.
2. Import jobs can prevent tenant shut down since they hold the tenant
gate
## Summary of Changes
Track the import tasks in memory and abort them explicitly on tenant
shutdown.
Integrate more closely with the storage controller:
1. When an import task has finished all of its jobs, it notifies the
storage controller, but **does not** mark the import as done in the
index_part. When all shards have finished importing, the storage
controller will call the `/activate_post_import` idempotent endpoint for
all of them. The handler, marks the import complete in index part,
resets the tenant if required and checks if the timeline is active yet.
2. Not directly related, but the import job now gets the starting state
from the storage controller instead of the import bucket. This paves the
way for progress checkpointing.

## Problem
We saw the following scenario in staging:
1. Pod A starts up. Becomes leader and steps down the previous pod
cleanly.
2. Pod B starts up (deployment).
3. Step down request from pod B to pod A times out. Pod A did not manage
to stop its reconciliations within 10 seconds and exited with return
code 1
([code](7ba8519b43/storage_controller/src/service.rs (L8686-L8702))).
4. Pod B marks itself as the leader and finishes start-up
5. k8s restarts pod A
6. k8s marks pod B as ready
7. pod A sends step down request to pod A - this succeeds => pod A is
now the leader
8. k8s kills pod A because it thinks pod B is healthy and pod A is part
of the old replica set
We end up in a situation where the only pod we have (B) is stepped down
and attempts to forward requests to a leader that doesn't exist. k8s
can't detect that pod B is in a bad state since the /status endpoint
simply returns 200 hundred if the pod is running.
## Summary of changes
This PR includes a number of robustness improvements to the leadership
protocol:
* use a single step down task per controller
* add a new endpoint to be used as k8s liveness probe and check
leadership status there
* handle restarts explicitly (i.e. don't step yourself down)
* increase the step down retry count
* don't kill the process on long step down since k8s will just restart
it
## Problem
Pageservers notify control plane directly when a shard import has
completed.
Control plane has to download the status of each shard from S3 and
figure out if everything is truly done,
before proceeding with branch activation.
Issues with this approach are:
* We can't control shard split behaviour on the storage controller side.
It's unsafe to split
during import.
* Control plane needs to know about shards and implement logic to check
all timelines are indeed ready.
## Summary of changes
In short, storage controller coordinates imports, and, only when
everything is done, notifies control plane.
Big rocks:
1. Store timeline imports in the storage controller database. Each
import stores the status of its shards in the database.
We hook into the timeline creation call as our entry point for this.
2. Pageservers get a new upcall endpoint to notify the storage
controller of shard import updates.
3. Storage controller handles these updates by updating persisted state.
If an update finalizes the import,
then poll pageservers until timeline activation, and, then, notify the
control plane that the import is complete.
Cplane side change with new endpoint is in
https://github.com/neondatabase/cloud/pull/26166
Closes https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/11566
## Problem
The graceful leadership transfer process involves calling step_down on
the old controller, but this was not waiting for shard splits to
complete, and the new controller could therefore end up trying to abort
a shard split while it was still going on.
We mitigated this already in #11256 by avoiding the case where shard
split completion would update the database incorrectly, but this was a
fragile fix because it assumes that is the only problematic part of the
split running concurrently.
Precursors:
- #11290
- #11256Closes: #11254
## Summary of changes
- Hold the reconciler gate from shard splits, so that step_down will
wait for them. Splits should always be fairly prompt, so it is okay to
wait here.
- Defense in depth: if step_down times out (hardcoded 10 second limit),
then fully terminate the controller process rather than letting it
continue running, potentially doing split-brainy things. This makes
sense because the new controller will always declare itself leader
unilaterally if step_down fails, so leaving an old controller running is
not beneficial.
- Tests: extend
`test_storage_controller_leadership_transfer_during_split` to separately
exercise the case of a split holding up step_down, and the case where
the overall timeout on step_down is hit and the controller terminates.
## Problem
There are some places in the code where we create `reqwest::Client`
without providing SSL CA certs from `ssl_ca_file`. These will break
after we enable TLS everywhere.
- Part of https://github.com/neondatabase/cloud/issues/22686
## Summary of changes
- Support `ssl_ca_file` in storage scrubber.
- Add `use_https_safekeeper_api` option to safekeeper to use https for
peer requests.
- Propagate SSL CA certs to storage_controller/client, storcon's
ComputeHook, PeerClient and maybe_forward.
The leadership transfer protocol between storage controller instances is
as follows, listing the steps for the new pod:
The new pod does these things:
1. new pod comes online. looks in database if there is a leader. if
there is, it asks that leader to step down.
2. the new pod does some operations to come online. they should be
fairly short timed, but it's not zero.
3. the new pod updates the leader entry in the database.
The old pod, once it gets the step down request, changes its internal
state to stepped down. It treats all incoming requests specially now:
instead of processing, it wants to forward them to the new pod. The
forwarding however only works if the new pod is online already, so
before forwarding it reads from the db for a leader (also to get the
address to forward to in the first place).
If the new pod is not online yet, i.e. during step 2 above, the old pod
might legitimately land in the branch which this patch is editing: the
leader in the database is a stepped down instance.
Before, we've returned a `ApiError::InternalServerError`, but that would
print the full backtrace plus an error log. With this patch, we cut down
on the noise, as it's an expected situation to have a short storcon
downtime while we are cutting over to the new instance. A
`ResourceUnavailable` error is not just more fitting, it also doesn't
print a backtrace once encountered, and only prints on the INFO log
level (see `api_error_handler` function).
Fixes#11320
cc #8954
Right now we start safekeeper node ids at 0. However, other code treats
0 as invalid (see #11407). We decided on latter. Therefore, make the
register python tests register safekeepers starting at node id 1 instead
of 0, and forbid safekeepers with id 0 from registering.

## Problem
- Part of https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/11113
- Building a new `reqwest::Client` for every request is expensive
because it parses CA certs under the hood. It's noticeable in storcon's
flamegraph.
## Summary of changes
- Reuse one `reqwest::Client` for all API calls to avoid parsing CA
certificates every time.
## Problem
Incoming requests often take the service lock, and sometimes even do
database transactions. That creates a risk that a rogue client can
starve the controller of the ability to do its primary job of
reconciling tenants to an available state.
## Summary of changes
* Use the `governor` crate to rate limit tenant requests at 10 requests
per second. This is ~10-100x lower than the worst "attack" we've seen
from a client bug. Admin APIs are not rate limited.
* Add a `storage_controller_http_request_rate_limited` histogram for
rate limited requests.
* Log a warning every 10 seconds for rate limited tenants.
The rate limiter is parametrized on TenantId, because the kinds of
client bug we're protecting against generally happen within tenant
scope, and the rates should be somewhat stable: we expect the global
rate of requests to increase as we do more work, but we do not expect
the rate of requests to one tenant to increase.

## Problem
We intend for cplane to use the heatmap layer download API to warm up
timelines after unarchival. It's tricky for them to recurse in the
ancestors,
and the current implementation doesn't work well when unarchiving a
chain
of branches and warming them up.
## Summary of changes
* Add a `recurse` flag to the API. When the flag is set, the operation
recurses into the parent
timeline after the current one is done.
* Be resilient to warming up a chain of unarchived branches. Let's say
we unarchived `B` and `C` from
the `A -> B -> C` branch hierarchy. `B` got unarchived first. We
generated the unarchival heatmaps
and stash them in `A` and `B`. When `C` unarchived, it dropped it's
unarchival heatmap since `A` and `B`
already had one. If `C` needed layers from `A` and `B`, it was out of
luck. Now, when choosing whether
to keep an unarchival heatmap we look at its end LSN. If it's more
inclusive than what we currently have,
keep it.
## Problem
Storage controller will proxy GETs to pageserver-like tenant/timeline
paths through to the pageserver.
Usually GET passthroughs make sense to go to shard 0, e.g. if you want
to list timelines.
But sometimes you really want to know about a particular shard, e.g.
reading its cache state or similar.
## Summary of changes
- Accept shard IDs as well as tenant IDs in the passthrough route
- Refactor node lookup to take a shard ID and make the tenant ID case a
layer on top of that. This is one more lock take-drop during these
requests, but it's not particularly expensive and these requests
shouldn't be terribly frequent
This is not immediately used by anything, but will be there any time we
want to e.g. do a pass-through query to check the warmth of a tenant
cache on a particular shard or somesuch.
Updates storage components to edition 2024. We like to stay on the
latest edition if possible. There is no functional changes, however some
code changes had to be done to accommodate the edition's breaking
changes.
The PR has two commits:
* the first commit updates storage crates to edition 2024 and appeases
`cargo clippy` by changing code. i have accidentially ran the formatter
on some files that had other edits.
* the second commit performs a `cargo fmt`
I would recommend a closer review of the first commit and a less close
review of the second one (as it just runs `cargo fmt`).

part of #9011.
Adds CPU/heap profiling for storcon.
Also fixes allowlists to match on the path only, since profiling

Requires #10892 for heap profiling.
## Problem
We lack an API for warming up attached locations based on the heatmap
contents.
This is problematic in two places:
1. If we manually migrate and cut over while the secondary is still cold
2. When we re-attach a previously offloaded tenant
## Summary of changes
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/10597 made heatmap generation
additive
across migrations, so we won't clobber it a after a cold migration. This
allows us to implement:
1. An endpoint for downloading all missing heatmap layers on the
pageserver:
`/v1/tenant/:tenant_shard_id/timeline/:timeline_id/download_heatmap_layers`.
Only one such operation per timeline is allowed at any given time. The
granularity is tenant shard.
2. An endpoint to the storage controller to trigger the downloads on the
pageserver:
`/v1/tenant/:tenant_shard_id/timeline/:timeline_id/download_heatmap_layers`.
This works both at
tenant and tenant shard level. If an unsharded tenant id is provided,
the operation is started on
all shards, otherwise only the specified shard.
3. A storcon cli command. Again, tenant and tenant-shard level
granularities are supported.
Cplane will call into storcon and trigger the downloads for all shards.
When we want to rescue a migration, we will use storcon cli targeting
the specific tenant shard.

## Problem
We had code for stripping IDs out of proxied paths to reduce cardinality
of metrics, but it was only stripping out tenant IDs, and leaving in
timeline IDs and query parameters (e.g. LSN in lsn->timestamp lookups).
## Summary of changes
- Use a more general regex approach.
There is still some risk that a future pageserver API might include a
parameter in `/the/path/`, but we control that API and it is not often
extended. We will also alert on metrics cardinality in staging so that
if we made that mistake we would notice.
Avoids compiling the crate and its dependencies into binaries that don't
need them. Shrinks the compute_ctl binary from about 31MB to 28MB in the
release-line-debug-size-lto profile.
Implementing the last missing endpoint of #9981, this adds support to
set the scheduling policy of an individual safekeeper, as specified in
the RFC. However, unlike in the RFC we call the endpoint
`scheduling_policy` not `status`
Closes#9981.
As for why not use the upsert endpoint for this: we want to have the
safekeeper upsert endpoint be used for testing and for deploying new
safekeepers, but not for changes of the scheduling policy. We don't want
to change any of the other fields when marking a safekeeper as
decommissioned for example, so we'd have to first fetch them only to
then specify them again. Of course one can also design an endpoint where
one can omit any field and it doesn't get modified, but it's still not
great for observability to put everything into one big "change something
about this safekeeper" endpoint.
## Problem
For large deployments, the `control/v1/tenant` listing API can time out
transmitting a monolithic serialized response.
## Summary of changes
- Add `limit` and `start_after` parameters to listing API
- Update storcon_cli to use these parameters and limit requests to 1000
items at a time
## Problem
Currently, if we want to move a secondary there isn't a neat way to do
that: we just have migration API for the attached location, and it is
only clean to use that if you've manually created a secondary via
pageserver API in the place you're going to move it to.
Secondary migration API enables:
- Moving the secondary somewhere because we would like to later move the
attached location there.
- Move the secondary location because we just want to reclaim some disk
space from its current location.
## Summary of changes
- Add `/migrate_secondary` API
- Add `tenant-shard-migrate-secondary` CLI
- Add tests for above
This adds an API to the storage controller to list safekeepers
registered to it.
This PR does a `diesel print-schema > storage_controller/src/schema.rs`
because of an inconsistency between up.sql and schema.rs, introduced by
[this](2c142f14f7)
commit, so there is some updates of `schema.rs` due to that. As a
followup to this, we should maybe think about running `diesel
print-schema` in CI.
Part of #9981
## Problem
Cplane and storage controller tenant config changes are not additive.
Any change overrides all existing tenant configs. This would be fine if
both did client side patching, but that's not the case.
Once this merges, we must update cplane to use the PATCH endpoint.
## Summary of changes
### High Level
Allow for patching of tenant configuration with a `PATCH
/v1/tenant/config` endpoint.
It takes the same data as it's PUT counterpart. For example the payload
below will update `gc_period` and unset `compaction_period`. All other
fields are left in their original state.
```
{
"tenant_id": "1234",
"gc_period": "10s",
"compaction_period": null
}
```
### Low Level
* PS and storcon gain `PATCH /v1/tenant/config` endpoints. PS endpoint
is only used for cplane managed instances.
* `storcon_cli` is updated to have separate commands for
`set-tenant-config` and `patch-tenant-config`

## Problem
We saw unexpected container terminations when running in k8s with with
small CPU resource requests.
The /status and /ready handlers called `maybe_forward`, which always
takes the lock on Service::inner.
If there is a lot of writer lock contention, and the container is
starved of CPU, this increases the likelihood that we will get killed by
the kubelet.
It isn't certain that this was a cause of issues, but it is a potential
source that we can eliminate.
## Summary of changes
- Revise logic to return immediately if the URL is in the non-forwarded
list, rather than calling maybe_forward
## Problem
We wish to stop using admin tokens in the infra repo, but step down
requests use the admin token.
## Summary of Changes
Introduce a new "ControllerPeer" scope and use it for step-down requests.
## Problem
We wish for the deployment orchestrator to use infra scoped tokens,
but storcon endpoints it's using require admin scoped tokens.
## Summary of Changes
Switch over all endpoints that are used by the deployment orchestrator
to use an infra scoped token. This causes no breakage during mixed
version scenarios because admin scoped tokens allow access to all
endpoints. The deployment orchestrator can cut over to the infra token
after this commit touches down in prod.
Once this commit is released we should also update the tests code to use
infra scoped tokens where appropriate. Currently it would fail on the
[compat tests](9761b6a64e/test_runner/regress/test_storage_controller.py (L69-L71)).
## Problem
If something goes wrong with a live migration, we currently only have
awkward ways to interrupt that:
- Restart the storage controller
- Ask it to do some other modification/migration on the shard, which we
don't really want.
## Summary of changes
- Add a new `/cancel` control API, and storcon_cli wrapper for it, which
fires the Reconciler's cancellation token. This is just for on-call use
and we do not expect it to be used by any other services.
## Problem
Pageserver returns 409 (Conflict) if any of the shards are already
deleting the timeline. This resulted in an error being propagated out of
the HTTP handler and to the client. It's an expected scenario so we
should handle it nicely.
This caused failures in `test_storage_controller_smoke`
[here](https://neon-github-public-dev.s3.amazonaws.com/reports/pr-9435/11390431900/index.html#suites/8fc5d1648d2225380766afde7c428d81/86eee4b002d6572d).
## Summary of Changes
Instead of returning an error on 409s, we now bubble the status code up
and let the HTTP handler code retry until it gets a 404 or times out.
## Problem
Storage controller `/control` API mostly requires admin tokens, for
interactive use by engineers. But for endpoints used by scripts, we
should not require admin tokens.

## Summary of changes
- Introduce the 'infra' JWT scope, which was not previously used in the
neon repo
- For pageserver & safekeeper node registrations, require infra scope
instead of admin
Note that admin will still work, as the controller auth checks permit
admin tokens for all endpoints irrespective of what scope they require.
## Problem
These commits are split off from
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/8971/commits where I was
fixing this to make a better scale test pass -- Vlad also independently
recognized these issues with cloudbench in
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/9062.
1. The storage controller proxies GET requests to pageservers based on
their intent, not the ground truth of where they're really attached.
2. Proxied requests can race with scheduling to tenants, resulting in
404 responses if the request hits the wrong pageserver.
Closes: https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/9062
## Summary of changes
1. If a shard has a running reconciler, then use the database
generation_pageserver to decide who to proxy the request to
2. If such a request gets a 404 response and its scheduled node has
changed since the request was dispatched.
## Problem
It turns out that we can't rely on external orchestration to promptly
route trafic to the new leader. This is downtime inducing.
Forwarding provides a safe way out.
## Safety
We forward when:
1. Request is not one of ["/control/v1/step_down", "/status", "/ready",
"/metrics"]
2. Current instance is in [`LeadershipStatus::SteppedDown`] state
3. There is a leader in the database to forward to
4. Leader from step (3) is not the current instance
If a storcon instance is persisted in the database, then we know that it
is the current leader.
There's one exception: time between handling step-down request and the
new leader updating the
database.
Let's treat the happy case first. The stepped down node does not produce
any side effects,
since all request handling happens on the leader.
As for the edge case, we are guaranteed to always have a maximum of two
running instances.
Hence, if we are in the edge case scenario the leader persisted in the
database is the
stepped down instance that received the request. Condition (4) above
covers this scenario.
## Summary of changes
* Conversion utilities for reqwest <-> hyper. I'm not happy with these,
but I don't see a better way. Open to suggestions.
* Add request forwarding logic
* Update each request handler. Again, not happy with this. If anyone
knows a nice to wrap the handlers, lmk. Me and Joonas tried :/
* Update each handler to maybe forward
* Tweak tests to showcase new behaviour
Currently using gc blocking and unblocking with storage controller
managed pageservers is painful. Implement the API on storage controller.

storage-controller managed ones, we don't have that functionality for

## Problem
We want to do AZ aware scheduling, but don't have enough metadata.
## Summary of changes
Introduce a `preferred_az_id` concept for each managed tenant shard.
In a future PR, the scheduler will use this as a soft preference.
The idea is to try and keep the shard attachments within the same AZ.
Under the assumption that the compute was placed in the correct AZ,
this reduces the chances of cross AZ trafic from between compute and PS.
In terms of code changes we:
1. Add a new nullable `preferred_az_id` column to the `tenant_shards`
table. Also include an in-memory counterpart.
2. Populate the preferred az on tenant creation and shard splits.
3. Add an endpoint which allows to bulk-set preferred AZs.
(3) gives us the migration path. I'll write a script which queries the
cplane db in the region and sets the preferred az of all shards with an
active compute to the AZ of said compute. For shards without an active compute,
I'll use the AZ of the currently attached pageserver
since this is what cplane uses now to schedule computes.
## Problem
The initial implementation of the validate API treats the in-memory
generations as authoritative.
- This is true when only one storage controller is running, but if a
rogue controller was running that hadn't been shut down properly, and
some pageserver requests were routed to that bad controller, it could
incorrectly return valid=true for stale generations.
- The generation in the main in-memory map gets out of date while a live
migration is in flight, and if the origin location for the migration
tries to do some deletions even though it is in AttachedStale (for
example because it had already started compaction), these might be
wrongly validated + executed.
## Summary of changes
- Continue to do the in-memory check: if this returns valid=false it is
sufficient to reject requests.
- When valid=true, do an additional read from the database to confirm
the generation is fresh.
- Revise behavior for validation on missing shards: this used to always
return valid=true as a convenience for deletions and shard splits, so
that pageservers weren't prevented from completing any enqueued
deletions for these shards after they're gone. However, this becomes
unsafe when we consider split brain scenarios. We could reinstate this
in future if we wanted to store some tombstones for deleted shards.
- Update test_scrubber_physical_gc to cope with the behavioral change:
they must now explicitly flush the deletion queue before splits, to
avoid tripping up on deletions that are enqueued at the time of the
split (these tests assert "scrubber deletes nothing", which check fails
if the split leaves behind some remote objects that are legitimately
GC'able)
- Add `test_storage_controller_validate_during_migration`, which uses
failpoints to create a situation where incorrect generation validation
during a live migration could result in a corruption
The rate of validate calls for tenants is pretty low: it happens as a
consequence deletions from GC and compaction, which are both
concurrency-limited on the pageserver side.
We currently do not record safekeepers in the storage controller
database. We want to migrate timelines across safekeepers eventually, so
start recording the safekeepers on deploy.

`storage_controller start|stop` subcommands
have also been extended to optionally accept an instance id.
2. Add a storage controller proxy test fixture. It's a basic HTTP server
that forwards requests from pageserver
and test env to the currently configured storage controller.
3. Add a test which exercises storage controller leadership transfer.
4. Finally fix a couple bugs that the test surfaced
Per #8674, disallow node configuration while drain/fill are ongoing.

`Service::external_node_configure` which checks for operation existing
before configuring.
Additionally:
- allow cancelling drain/fill after a pageserver has restarted and
transitioned to WarmingUp
Fixes: #8674
