## Problem
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/9746 lifted decoding and
interpretation of WAL to the safekeeper.
This reduced the ingested amount on the pageservers by around 10x for a
tenant with 8 shards, but doubled
the ingested amount for single sharded tenants.
Also, https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/9746 uses bincode which
doesn't support schema evolution.
Technically the schema can be evolved, but it's very cumbersome.
## Summary of changes
This patch set addresses both problems by adding protobuf support for
the interpreted wal records and adding compression support. Compressed
protobuf reduced the ingested amount by 100x on the 32 shards
`test_sharded_ingest` case (compared to non-interpreted proto). For the
1 shard case the reduction is 5x.
Sister change to `rust-postgres` is
[here](https://github.com/neondatabase/rust-postgres/pull/33).

## Problem
LFC is not enabled by default in tests, but it is enabled in production.
This increases the risk of errors in the production environment, which
were not found during the routine workflow.
However, enabling LFC for all the tests may overload the disk on our
servers and increase the number of failures.
So, we try enabling LFC in one case to evaluate the possible risk.
## Summary of changes
A new environment variable, USE_LFC is introduced. If it is set to true,
LFC is enabled by default in all the tests.
In our workflow, we enable LFC for PG17, release, x86-64, and disabled
for all other combinations.

# Context
This PR contains PoC-level changes for a product feature that allows
onboarding large databases into Neon without going through the regular
data path.
# Changes
This internal RFC provides all the context
* https://github.com/neondatabase/cloud/pull/19799
In the language of the RFC, this PR covers
* the Importer code (`fast_import`)
* all the Pageserver changes (mgmt API changes, flow implementation,
etc)
* a basic test for the Pageserver changes
# Reviewing
As acknowledged in the RFC, the code added in this PR is not ready for
general availability.
Also, the **architecture is not to be discussed in this PR**, but in the
RFC and associated Slack channel instead.
Reviewers of this PR should take that into consideration.
The quality bar to apply during review depends on what area of the code
is being reviewed:
* Importer code (`fast_import`): practically anything goes
* Core flow (`flow.rs`):
* Malicious input data must be expected and the existing threat models
apply.
* The code must not be safe to execute on *dedicated* Pageserver
instances:
* This means in particular that tenants *on other* Pageserver instances
must not be affected negatively wrt data confidentiality, integrity or
availability.
* Other code: the usual quality bar
* Pay special attention to correct use of gate guards, timeline
cancellation in all places during shutdown & migration, etc.
* Consider the broader system impact; if you find potentially
problematic interactions with Storage features that were not covered in
the RFC, bring that up during the review.
I recommend submitting three separate reviews, for the three high-level
areas with different quality bars.

## Problem
Follow up of https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/9682, that patch
didn't fully address the problem: what if shutdown fails due to whatever
reason and then we reattach the tenant? Then we will still remove the
future layer. The underlying problem is that the fix for #5878 gets
voided because of the generation optimizations.
Of course, we also need to ensure that delete happens after uploads, but
note that we only schedule deletes when there are no ongoing upload
tasks, so that's fine.
## Summary of changes
* Add a test case to reproduce the behavior (by changing the original
test case to attach the same generation).
* If layer upload happens after the deletion, drain the deletion queue
before uploading.
* If blocked_deletion is enabled, directly remove it from the
blocked_deletion queue.
* Local fs backend fix to avoid race between deletion and preload.
* test_emergency_mode does not need to wait for uploads (and it's
generally not possible to wait for uploads).
* ~~Optimize deletion executor to skip validation if there are no files
to delete.~~ this doesn't work

## Problem
We use a pretty old version of `mypy` 1.3 (released 1.5 years ago), it
produces false positives for `typing.Self`.
## Summary of changes
- Bump `mypy` from 1.3 to 1.13
- Fix new warnings and errors
- Use `typing.Self` whenever we `return self`
## Problem
On Debian 12 (Bookworm), Python 3.11 is the latest available version.
## Summary of changes
- Update Python to 3.11 in build-tools
- Fix ruff check / format
- Fix mypy
- Use `StrEnum` instead of pair `str`, `Enum`
- Update docs
## Problem
SLRU blocks, which can add up to several gigabytes, are currently
ingested by all shards, multiplying their capacity cost by the shard
count and slowing down ingest. We do this because all shards need the
SLRU pages to do timestamp->LSN lookup for GC.
Related: https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/7512
## Summary of changes
- On non-zero shards, learn the GC offset from shard 0's index instead
of calculating it.
- Add a test `test_sharding_gc` that exercises this
- Do GC in test_pg_regress as a general smoke test that GC functions run
(e.g. this would fail if we were using SLRUs we didn't have)
In this PR we are still ingesting SLRUs everywhere, but not using them
any more. Part 2 PR (https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/9786)
makes the change to not store them at all.

## Problem
I've noticed that we have 2 flaky tests which failed with error:
```
re.error: missing ), unterminated subpattern at position 21
```
- `test_timeline_archival_chaos` — has been already fixed
- `test_sharded_tad_interleaved_after_partial_success` — I didn't manage
to find the incorrect regex
[Internal link](https://neonprod.grafana.net/goto/yfmVHV7NR?orgId=1)
## Summary of changes
- Wrap `re.match` in `try..except` block and print incorrect regex
part of https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/9114, we want to be
able to run partial gc-compaction in tests. In the future, we can also
expand this functionality to legacy compaction, so that we can trigger
compaction for a specific key range.
## Summary of changes
* Support passing compaction key range through pageserver routes.
* Refactor input parameters of compact related function to take the new
`CompactOptions`.
* Add tests for partial compaction. Note that the test may or may not
trigger compaction based on GC horizon. We need to improve the test case
to ensure things always get below the gc_horizon and the gc-compaction
can be triggered.

## Problem
The first version of the ingest benchmark had some parsing and reporting
logic in shell script inside GitHub workflow.
it is better to move that logic into a python testcase so that we can
also run it locally.
## Summary of changes
- Create new python testcase
- invoke pgcopydb inside python test case
- move the following logic into python testcase
- determine backpressure
- invoke pgcopydb and report its progress
- parse pgcopydb log and extract metrics
- insert metrics into perf test database
- add additional column to perf test database that can receive endpoint
ID used for pgcopydb run to have it available in grafana dashboard when
retrieving other metrics for an endpoint
## Example run

## Problem
Tests that are marked with `run_only_on_default_postgres` do not run on
debug builds on CI because we run debug builds only for the latest
Postgres version (which is 17)
## Summary of changes
- Bump `PgVersion.DEFAULT` to `v17`
- Skip `test_timeline_archival_chaos` in debug builds
and add /metrics endpoint to compute_ctl to expose such metrics

## Problem
Followup to https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/9677 which enables
`no_sync` in tests. This can be merged once the next release has
happened.
## Summary of changes
- Always run pageserver with `no_sync = true` in tests.
## Problem
Running `pytest.skip(...)` in a test body instead of marking the test
with `@pytest.mark.skipif(...)` makes all fixtures to be initialised,
which is not necessary if the test is going to be skipped anyway.
Also, some tests are unnecessarily skipped (e.g. `test_layer_bloating`
on Postgres 17, or `test_idle_reconnections` at all) or run (e.g.
`test_parse_project_git_version_output_positive` more than on once
configuration) according to comments.
## Summary of changes
- Move `skip_on_postgres` / `xfail_on_postgres` /
`run_only_on_default_postgres` decorators to `fixture.utils`
- Add new `skip_in_debug_build` and `skip_on_ci` decorators
- Replace `pytest.skip(...)` calls with decorators where possible
Perf benchmarks produce a lot of layers.

Fix direct reading from WAL buffers.
Pointer wasn't advanced which resulted in sending corrupted WAL if part
of read used WAL buffers and part read from the file. Also move it to
neon_walreader so that e.g. replication could also make use of it.
ref https://github.com/neondatabase/cloud/issues/19567
Problem
-------
Tests that directly call the Pageserver Management API to set tenant
config are flaky if the Pageserver is managed by Storcon because Storcon
is the source of truth and may (theoretically) reconcile a tenant at any
time.
Solution
--------
Switch all users of
`set_tenant_config`/`patch_tenant_config_client_side`
to use the `env.storage_controller.pageserver_api()`
Future Work
-----------
Prevent regressions from creeping in.
And generally clean up up tenant configuration.
Maybe we can avoid the Pageserver having a default tenant config at all
and put the default into Storcon instead?

## Problem
`tenant_get_shards()` does not work with a sharded tenant on 1
pageserver, as it assumes an unsharded tenant in this case. This special
case appears to have been added to handle e.g. `test_emergency_mode`,
where the storage controller is stopped. This breaks e.g. the sharded
ingest benchmark in #9591 when run with a single shard.
## Summary of changes
Correctly look up shards even with a single pageserver, but add a
special case that assumes an unsharded tenant if the storage controller
is stopped and the caller provides an explicit pageserver, in order to
accomodate `test_emergency_mode`.

mock for cplane as well as the JWKs url.
complications:
1. We cannot just use local_proxy binary, as that requires the
pg_session_jwt extension which we don't have available in the current
test suite
2. We cannot use just any old http mock for local_proxy, as auth_broker
requires http2 to local_proxy
as such, I used the h2 library to implement an echo server - copied from
the examples in the h2 docs.

## Summary of changes
Removed all aux-v1 config processing code. Note that we persisted it
into the index part file, so we cannot really remove the field from
index part. I also kept the config item within the tenant config, but we

This PR adds a pageserver mgmt API to scan a layer file for disposable
keys.
It hooks it up to the sharding compaction test, demonstrating that we're
not filtering out all disposable keys.
This is extracted from PGDATA import
(https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/9218)
where I do the filtering of layer files based on `is_key_disposable`.
Before, we didn't copy over the `index-part.json` of offloaded timelines
to the new shard's location, resulting in the new shard not knowing the
timeline even exists.
In #9444, we copy over the manifest, but we also need to do this for
`index-part.json`.
As the operations to do are mostly the same between offloaded and
non-offloaded timelines, we can iterate over all of them in the same
loop, after the introduction of a `TimelineOrOffloadedArcRef` type to
generalize over the two cases. This is analogous to the deletion code
added in #8907.
The added test also ensures that the sharded archival config endpoint
works, something that has not yet been ensured by tests.
Part of #8088
# Problem
Timeline creation can either be bootstrap or branch.
The distinction is made based on whether the `ancestor_*` fields are
present or not.
In the PGDATA import code
(https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/9218), I add a third variant
to timeline creation.
# Solution
The above pushed me to refactor the code in Pageserver to distinguish
the different creation requests through enum variants.
There is no externally observable effect from this change.
On the implementation level, a notable change is that the acquisition of
the `TimelineCreationGuard` happens later than before. This is necessary
so that we have everything in place to construct the
`CreateTimelineIdempotency`. Notably, this moves the acquisition of the
creation guard _after_ the acquisition of the `gc_cs` lock in the case
of branching. This might appear as if we're at risk of holding `gc_cs`
longer than before this PR, but, even before this PR, we were holding
`gc_cs` until after the `wait_completion()` that makes the timeline
creation durable in S3 returns. I don't see any deadlock risk with
reversing the lock acquisition order.
As a drive-by change, I found that the `create_timeline()` function in
`neon_local` is unused, so I removed it.

## Problem
Tenant deletion only removes the current shards from remote storage. Any
stale parent shards (before splits) will be left behind. These shards
are kept since child shards may reference data from the parent until new
image layers are generated.
## Summary of changes
* Document a special case for pageserver tenant deletion that deletes
all shards in remote storage when given an unsharded tenant ID, as well
as any unsharded tenant data.
* Pass an unsharded tenant ID to delete all remote storage under the
tenant ID prefix.
* Split out `RemoteStorage::delete_prefix()` to delete a bucket prefix,
with additional test coverage.
* Add a `delimiter` argument to `asset_prefix_empty()` to support
partial prefix matches (i.e. all shards starting with a given tenant
ID).
Add a test for timeline offloading, and subsequent unoffloading.
Also adds a manual endpoint, and issues a proper timeline shutdown
during offloading which prevents a pageserver hang at shutdown.
Part of #8088.
## Problem
We were seeing timeouts on migrations in this test.
The test unfortunately tends to saturate local storage, which is shared
between the pageservers and the control plane database, which makes the
test kind of unrealistic. We will also want to increase the scale of
this test, so it's worth fixing that.
## Summary of changes
- Instead of randomly creating timelines at the same time as the other
background operations, explicitly identify a subset of tenant which will
have timelines, and create them at the start. This avoids pageservers
putting a lot of load on the test node during the main body of the test.
- Adjust the tenants created to create some number of 8 shard tenants
and the rest 1 shard tenants, instead of just creating a lot of 2 shard
tenants.
- Use archival_config to exercise tenant-mutating operations, instead of
using timeline creation for this.
- Adjust reconcile_until_idle calls to avoid waiting 5 seconds between
calls, which causes timelines with large shard count tenants.
- Fix a pageserver bug where calls to archival_config during activation
get 404
## Problem

This seems to paper over a behavioral difference in Python 3.9 and
Python 3.12 with how dataclasses work with mutable variables. On Python
3.12, I get the following error:
ValueError: mutable default <class 'dict'> for field EXTRACTORS is not allowed: use default_factory
This obviously doesn't occur in our testing environment. When I do what
the error tells me, EXTRACTORS doesn't seem to exist as an attribute on
the class in at least Python 3.9.
The solution provided in this commit seems like the least amount of
friction to keep the wheels turning.

This is simpler than using subprocess.
One difference is in how moto's log output is now collected. Previously,
moto's logs went to stderr, and were collected and printed at the end of
the test by pytest, like this:

Note the timestamps: the timestamp at the beginning of the line is the
time that the stderr was dumped, i.e. the end of the test, which makes

is when the operation actually happened, but it has only 1 s
granularity.
