Conflicts:
pageserver/src/tenant/blob_io.rs
- minor stuff
Also I noticed some earlier merge went through cleanly
but the `generate_tombstone_image_layer` layer writer didn't have the right
arugments, so, failed to compile. Fixed in this merge commit.
The previous merge commit was the commit before, so, all these conflicts
are the conflicts that arise from this PR and 97fb77 which is the commit
that added cancellation sensitivity to flush task infinite retries.
Conflicts:
pageserver/src/tenant/remote_timeline_client/download.rs
- different return type
pageserver/src/virtual_file/owned_buffers_io/write.rs
- added TODO that needs to be fixed before merge about
retrying final write. I want a different API than
this shutdown() thing we have rn
pageserver/src/virtual_file/owned_buffers_io/write/flush.rs
Most of the churn came from the need to propagate cancellation token.
And churn in tests from having to propagate upwards the FlushTaskError
instead of the std::io::Error we were propagating upwards before.
I like to run nightly clippy every so often to make our future rust
upgrades easier. Some notable changes:
* Prefer `next_back()` over `last()`. Generic iterators will implement
`last()` to run forward through the iterator until the end.
* Prefer `io::Error::other()`.
* Use implicit returns
One case where I haven't dealt with the issues is the now
[more-sensitive "large enum variant"
lint](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-clippy/pull/13833). I chose not
to take any decisions around it here, and simply marked them as allow
for now.
## Problem
We wish to improve pageserver batching such that one batch can contain
requests for
pages at different LSNs. The current shape of the code doesn't lend
itself to the change.
## Summary of changes
Refactor the read path such that the fringe gets initialized upfront.
This is where the multi LSN
change will plug in. A couple other small changes fell out of this.
There should be NO behaviour change here. If you smell one, shout!
I recommend reviewing commits individually (intentionally made them as
small as possible).
Related: https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/10765
## Problem
Now `get_timestamp_of_lsn` returns `404 NotFound` if there is no clog
pages for given LSN, and it's difficult to distinguish from other 404
errors. A separate status code for this error will allow the control
plane to handle this case.
- Closes: https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/11439
- Corresponding PR in control plane:
https://github.com/neondatabase/cloud/pull/27125
## Summary of changes
- Return `412 PreconditionFailed` instead of `404 NotFound` if no
timestamp is fond for given LSN.
I looked briefly through the current error handling code in cloud.git
and the status code change should not affect anything for the existing
code. Change from the corresponding PR also looks fine and should work
with the current PS status code. Additionally, here is OK to merge it
from control plane team:

The timeline stopping state is set much earlier than the cancellation
token is fired, so by checking for the stopping state, we can prevent
races with timeline shutdown where we issue a cancellation error but the
cancellation token hasn't been fired yet.
Fix#11427.
## Problem
`tenant_import`, used to import an existing tenant from remote storage
into a storage controller for support and debugging, assumed
`DEFAULT_STRIPE_SIZE` since this can't be recovered from remote storage.
In #11168, we are changing the stripe size, which will break
`tenant_import`.
Resolves#11175.
## Summary of changes
* Add `stripe_size` to the tenant manifest.
* Add `TenantScanRemoteStorageShard::stripe_size` and return from
`tenant_scan_remote` if present.
* Recover the stripe size during`tenant_import`, or fall back to 32768
(the original default stripe size).
* Add tenant manifest compatibility snapshot:
`2025-04-08-pgv17-tenant-manifest-v1.tar.zst`
There are no cross-version concerns here, since unknown fields are
ignored during deserialization where relevant.

## Problem
Currently, the tenant manifest is only uploaded if there are offloaded
timelines. The checks are also a bit loose (e.g. only checks number of
offloaded timelines). We want to start using the manifest for other
things too (e.g. stripe size).
Resolves#11271.
## Summary of changes
This patch ensures that a tenant manifest always exists. The lifecycle
is:
* During preload, fetch the existing manifest, if any.
* During attach, upload a tenant manifest if it differs from the
preloaded one (or does not exist).
* Upload a new manifest as needed, if it differs from the last-known
manifest (ignoring version number).
* On splits, pre-populate the manifest from the parent.
* During Pageserver physical GC, remove old manifests but keep the
latest 2 generations.
This will cause nearly all existing tenants to upload a new tenant
manifest on their first attach after this change. Attaches are
concurrency-limited in the storage controller, so we expect this will be
fine.
Also updates `make_broken` to automatically log at `INFO` level when the
tenant has been cancelled, to avoid spurious error logs during shutdown.
## Problem
If a tenant is cancelled (e.g. due to Pageserver shutdown) during
attach, it is set to `Broken`. This results both in error log spam and
500 responses for clients -- shutdown is supposed to return 503
responses which can be retried.
This becomes more likely to happen with #11328, where we perform tenant
manifest downloads/uploads during attach.
## Summary of changes
Set tenant state to `Stopping` when attach fails and the tenant is
cancelled, downgrading the log messages to INFO. This introduces two
variants of `Stopping` -- with and without a caller barrier -- where the
latter is used to signal attach cancellation.
## Problem
We don't have metrics to exactly quantify the end user impact of
on-demand downloads.
Perf tracing is underway (#11140) to supply us with high-resolution
*samples*.
But it will also be useful to have some aggregate per-timeline and
per-instance metrics that definitively contain all observations.
## Summary of changes

independently.

removes friction: https://github.com/neondatabase/docs/pull/404
# Problem
Rejecting `pageserver.toml`s with unknown fields adds friction,
especially when using `pageserver.toml` fields as feature flags that
need to be decommissioned.
See the added paragraphs on `pageserver_api::models::ConfigToml` for
details on what kind of friction it causes.
Also read the corresponding internal docs update linked above to see a
more imperative guide for using `pageserver.toml` flags as feature
flags.
# Solution
## Ignoring unknown fields
Ignoring is the serde default behavior.
So, just remove `serde(deny_unknown_fields)` from all structs in
`pageserver_api::config::ConfigToml`
`pageserver_api::config::TenantConfigToml`.
I went through all the child fields and verified they don't use
`deny_unknown_fields` either, including those shared with
`pageserver_api::models`.
## Warning about unknown fields
We still want to warn about unknown fields to
- be informed about typos in the config template
- be reminded about feature-flag style configs that have been cleaned up
in code but not yet in config templates
We tried `serde_ignore` (cf draft #11319) but it doesn't work with
`serde(flatten)`.
The solution we arrived at is to compare the on-disk TOML with the TOML
that we produce if we serialize the `ConfigToml` again.
Any key specified in the on-disk TOML but not present in the serialized
TOML is flagged as an ignored key.
The mechanism to do it is a tiny recursive decent visitor on the
`toml_edit::DocumentMut`.
# Future Work
Invalid config _values_ in known fields will continue to fail pageserver
startup.

for current worst case impact to deployments & ideas to improve.
# Problem
Current perf tracing fields do not allow answering the question what a
specific Postgres backend was waiting for.
# Background
For Pageserver logs, we set the backend PID as the libpq
`application_name` on the compute side, and funnel that into the a
tracing field for the spans that emit to the global tracing subscriber.
# Solution
Funnel `application_name`, and the other fields that we use in the
logging spans, into the root span for perf tracing.

## Problem
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/11140 introduces performance
tracing with OTEL
and a pageserver config which configures the sampling ratio of get page
requests.
Enabling a non-zero sampling ratio on a per region basis is too
aggressive and comes with perf
impact that isn't very well understood yet.
## Summary of changes
Add a `sampling_ratio` tenant level config which overrides the
pageserver level config.
Note that we do not cache the config and load it on every get page
request such that changes propagate
timely.
Note that I've had to remove the `SHARD_SELECTION` span to get this to
work. The tracing library doesn't
expose a neat way to drop a span if one realises it's not needed at
runtime.

## Problem
IO metrics for secondary locations do not get deregistered when the
timeline is removed.
## Summary of changes
Stash the request context to be used for downloads in
`SecondaryTimelineDetail`. These objects match the lifetime of the
secondary timeline location pretty well.
When the timeline is removed, deregister the metrics too.

## Problem

- 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.

It's not 100% safe for now to run gc-compaction over the sparse
keyspace. It might cause deleted file to re-appear if a specific
sequence of operations are done as in the issue, which in reality
doesn't happen due to how we split delta/image layers based on the key
range.
A long-term fix would be either having a separate gc-compaction code
path for metadata keys (as how we have a different code path for
metadata image layer generation), or let the compaction process aware of
the information of "there's an image layer that doesn't contain a key"
so that we can skip the keys.
## Summary of changes
* gc-compaction auto trigger only triggers compaction over the normal
data range.
* do not hold gc_block_guard across the full compaction job, only hold
it during each subcompaction.

Based on https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/11139
## Problem
We want to export performance traces from the pageserver in OTEL format.
End goal is to see them in Grafana.
## Summary of changes
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/11139 introduces the
infrastructure required to run the otel collector alongside the
pageserver.
### Design
Requirements:
1. We'd like to avoid implementing our own performance tracing stack if
possible and use the `tracing` crate if possible.
2. Ideally, we'd like zero overhead of a sampling rate of zero and be a
be able to change the tracing config for a tenant on the fly.
3. We should leave the current span hierarchy intact. This includes
adding perf traces without modifying existing tracing.
To satisfy (3) (and (2) in part) a separate span hierarchy is used.
`RequestContext` gains an optional `perf_span` member
that's only set when the request was chosen by sampling. All perf span
related methods added to `RequestContext` are no-ops for requests that
are not sampled.
This on its own is not enough for (3), so performance spans use a
separate tracing subscriber. The `tracing` crate doesn't have great
support for this, so there's a fair amount of boilerplate to override
the subscriber at all points of the perf span lifecycle.
### Perf Impact
[Periodic
pagebench](https://neonprod.grafana.net/d/ddqtbfykfqfi8d/e904990?orgId=1&from=2025-02-08T14:15:59.362Z&to=2025-03-10T14:15:59.362Z&timezone=utc)
shows no statistically significant regression with a sample ratio of 0.
There's an annotation on the dashboard on 2025-03-06.
### Overview of changes:
1. Clean up the `RequestContext` API a bit. Namely, get rid of the
`RequestContext::extend` API and use the builder instead.
2. Add pageserver level configs for tracing: sampling ratio, otel
endpoint, etc.
3. Introduce some perf span tracking utilities and expose them via
`RequestContext`. We add a `tracing::Span` wrapper to be used for perf
spans and a `tracing::Instrumented` equivalent for it. See doc comments
for reason.
4. Set up OTEL tracing infra according to configuration. A separate
runtime is used for the collector.
5. Add perf traces to the read path.

## Problem
There are some cases where traditional gc might collect some layer files
causing gc-compaction cannot read the full history of the key. This
needs to be resolved in the long-term by improving the compaction
process. For now, let's simply avoid such errors triggering the circuit
breaker.
## Summary of changes
* Move the place where we trigger the circuit breaker. We only trigger
it during compactions other than L0 compactions. We added the trigger a
year ago due to file cleanup concerns in image layer compaction.
* For gc-compaction, only return errors to the upper
compaction_iteration if it's a shutdown error. Otherwise, just log it
and skip the compaction for a key range.

## Problem
Tenants in attachment state `Stale` can't upload layers, and don't run
compaction, but still do periodic L0 layer flushes in the tenant
housekeeping loop. If the tenant remains stuck in stale mode, this
causes a large buildup of L0 layers, causing logging, metrics increases,
and possibly alerts.
Resolves#11245.
## Summary of changes
Don't perform periodic layer flushes in stale attachment state.

Imagine we have a branch with 3 snapshots A, B, and C:
```
base---+---+---+---main
\-A \-B \-C
base=100G, base-A=1G, A-B=1G, B-C=1G, C-main=1G
```
at this point, the synthetic size should be 100+1+1+1+1=104G.
after the deletion, the structure looks like:
```
base---+---+---+
\-A \-B \-C
```
If we simply assume main never exists, the size will be calculated as
size(A) + size(B) + size(C)=300GB, which obviously is not what the user
would expect.
The correct way to do this is to assume part of main still exists, that
is to say, set C-main=1G:
```
base---+---+---+main
\-A \-B \-C
```
And we will get the correct synthetic size of 100G+1+1+1=103G.
## Summary of changes
* Do not generate gc cutoff point for invisible branches.
* Use the same LSN as the last branchpoint for branch end.
* Remove test_api_handler for mark_invisible.

Add an optional `safekeepers` field to `TimelineInfo` which is returned
by the storcon upon timeline creation if the
`--timelines-onto-safekeepers` flag is enabled. It contains the list of
safekeepers chosen.
Other contexts where we return `TimelineInfo` do not contain the
`safekeepers` field, sadly I couldn't make this more type safe like done
in Rust via `TimelineCreateResponseStorcon`, as there is no way of
flattening or inheritance (and I don't that duplicating the entire type
for some minor type safety improvements is worth it).
The storcon side has been done in #11058.

## Problem
`CompactFlags::NoYield` was a bit inconvenient, since every caller
except for the background compaction loop should generally set it (e.g.
HTTP API calls, tests, etc). It was also inconsistent with
`CompactionOutcome::YieldForL0`.
## Summary of changes
Invert `CompactFlags::NoYield` as `CompactFlags::YieldForL0`. There
should be no behavioral changes.
