 ## Error message style

-### PostgreSQL extensions
-
 PostgreSQL has a style guide for writing error messages:

 https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/error-style-guide.html

 Follow that guide when writing error messages in the PostgreSQL
-extensions.
-
-### Neon Rust code
-
-#### Anyhow Context
-
-When adding anyhow `context()`, use form `present-tense-verb+action`.
-
-Example:
- Bad: `file.metadata().context("could not get file metadata")?;`
- Good: `file.metadata().context("get file metadata")?;`
-
-#### Logging Errors
-
-When logging any error `e`, use `could not {e:#}` or `failed to {e:#}`.
-
-If `e` is an `anyhow` error and you want to log the backtrace that it contains,
-use `{e:?}` instead of `{e:#}`.
-
-#### Rationale
-
-The `{:#}` ("alternate Display") of an `anyhow` error chain is concatenation fo the contexts, using `: `.
-
-For example, the following Rust code will result in output
-```
-ERROR  failed to list users: load users from server: parse response: invalid json
-```
-
-This is more concise / less noisy than what happens if you do `.context("could not ...")?` at each level, i.e.:
-
-```
-ERROR  could not list users: could not load users from server: could not parse response: invalid json
-```
-
-
-```rust
-fn main() {
-  match list_users().context("list users") else {
-    Ok(_) => ...,
-    Err(e) => tracing::error!("failed to {e:#}"),
-  }
-}
-fn list_users() {
-  http_get_users().context("load users from server")?;
-}
-fn http_get_users() {
-  let response = client....?;
-  response.parse().context("parse response")?; // fails with serde error "invalid json"
-}
-```

-# Seamless tenant migration
-
- Author: john@neon.tech
- Created on 2023-08-11
- Implemented on ..
-
-## Summary
-
-The preceding [generation numbers RFC](025-generation-numbers.md) may be thought of as "making tenant
-migration safe". Following that,
-this RFC is about how those migrations are to be done:
-
-1. Seamlessly (without interruption to client availability)
-2. Quickly (enabling faster operations)
-3. Efficiently (minimizing I/O and $ cost)
-
-These points are in priority order: if we have to sacrifice
-efficiency to make a migration seamless for clients, we will
-do so, etc.
-
-This is accomplished by introducing two high level changes:
-
- A dual-attached state for tenants, used in a control-plane-orchestrated
-  migration procedure that preserves availability during a migration.
- Warm secondary locations for tenants, where on-disk content is primed
-  for a fast migration of the tenant from its current attachment to this
-  secondary location.
-
-## Motivation
-
-Migrating tenants between pageservers is essential to operating a service
-at scale, in several contexts:
-
-1. Responding to a pageserver node failure by migrating tenants to other pageservers
-2. Balancing load and capacity across pageservers, for example when a user expands their
-   database and they need to migrate to a pageserver with more capacity.
-3. Restarting pageservers for upgrades and maintenance
-
-The current situation steps for migration are:
-
- detach from old node; skip if old node is dead; (the [skip part is still WIP](https://github.com/neondatabase/cloud/issues/5426)).
- attach to new node
- re-configure endpoints to use the new node
-
-Once [generation numbers](025-generation-numbers.md) are implemented,
-the detach step is no longer critical for correctness. So, we can
-
- attach to a new node,
- re-configure endpoints to use the new node, and then
- detach from the old node.
-
-However, this still does not meet our seamless/fast/efficient goals:
-
- Not fast: The new node will have to download potentially large amounts
-  of data from S3, which may take many minutes.
- Not seamless: If we attach to a new pageserver before detaching an old one,
-  the new one might delete some objects that interrupt availability of reads on the old one.
- Not efficient: the old pageserver will continue uploading
-  S3 content during the migration that will never be read.
-
-The user expectations for availability are:
-
- For planned maintenance, there should be zero availability
-  gap. This expectation is fulfilled by this RFC.
- For unplanned changes (e.g. node failures), there should be
-  minimal availability gap. This RFC provides the _mechanism_
-  to fail over quickly, but does not provide the failure _detection_
-  nor failover _policy_.
-
-## Non Goals
-
- Defining service tiers with different storage strategies: the same
-  level of HA & overhead will apply to all tenants. This doesn't rule out
-  adding such tiers in future.
- Enabling pageserver failover in the absence of a control plane: the control
-  plane will remain the source of truth for what should be attached where.
- Totally avoiding availability gaps on unplanned migrations during
-  a failure (we expect a small, bounded window of
-  read unavailability of very recent LSNs)
- Workload balancing: this RFC defines the mechanism for moving tenants
-  around, not the higher level logic for deciding who goes where.
- Defining all possible configuration flows for tenants: the migration process
-  defined in this RFC demonstrates the sufficiency of the pageserver API, but
-  is not the only kind of configuration change the control plane will ever do.
-  The APIs defined here should let the control plane move tenants around in
-  whatever way is needed while preserving data safety and read availability.
-
-## Impacted components
-
-Pageserver, control plane
-
-## Terminology
-
- **Attachment**: a tenant is _attached_ to a pageserver if it has
-  been issued a generation number, and is running an instance of
-  the `Tenant` type, ingesting the WAL, and available to serve
-  page reads.
- **Location**: locations are a superset of attachments. A location
-  is a combination of a tenant and a pageserver. We may _attach_ at a _location_.
-
- **Secondary location**: a location which is not currently attached.
- **Warm secondary location**: a location which is not currently attached, but is endeavoring to maintain a warm local cache of layers. We avoid calling this a _warm standby_ to avoid confusion with similar postgres features.
-
-## Implementation (high level)
-
-### Warm secondary locations
-
-To enable faster migrations, we will identify at least one _secondary location_
-for each tenant. This secondary location will keep a warm cache of layers
-for the tenant, so that if it is later attached, it can catch up with the
-latest LSN quickly: rather than downloading everything, it only has to replay
-the recent part of the WAL to advance from the remote_consistent_offset to the
-most recent LSN in the WAL.
-
-The control plane is responsible for selecting secondary locations, and
-calling into pageservers to configure tenants into a secondary mode at this
-new location, as well as attaching the tenant in its existing primary location.
-
-The attached pageserver for a tenant will publish a [layer heatmap](#layer-heatmap)
-to advise secondaries of which layers should be downloaded.
-
-### Location modes
-
-Currently, we consider a tenant to be in one of two states on a pageserver:
-
- Attached: active `Tenant` object, and layers on local disk
- Detached: no layers on local disk, no runtime state.
-
-We will extend this with finer-grained modes, whose purpose will become
-clear in later sections:
-
- **AttachedSingle**: equivalent the existing attached state.
- **AttachedMulti**: like AttachedSingle, holds an up to date generation, but
-  does not do deletions.
- **AttachedStale**: like AttachedSingle, holds a stale generation,
-  do not do any remote storage operations.
- **Secondary**: keep local state on disk, periodically update from S3.
- **Detached**: equivalent to existing detached state.
-
-To control these finer grained states, a new pageserver API endpoint will be added.
-
-### Cutover procedure
-
-Define old location and new location as "Node A" and "Node B". Consider
-the case where both nodes are available, and Node B was previously configured
-as a secondary location for the tenant we are migrating.
-
-The cutover procedure is orchestrated by the control plane, calling into
-the pageservers' APIs:
-
-1. Call to Node A requesting it to flush to S3 and enter AttachedStale state
-2. Increment generation, and call to Node B requesting it to enter AttachedMulti
-   state with the new generation.
-3. Call to Node B, requesting it to download the latest hot layers from remote storage,
-   according to the latest heatmap flushed by Node A.
-4. Wait for Node B's WAL ingestion to catch up with node A's
-5. Update endpoints to use node B instead of node A
-6. Call to node B requesting it to enter state AttachedSingle.
-7. Call to node A requesting it to enter state Secondary
-
-The following table summarizes how the state of the system advances:
-
-|     Step      |     Node A     |     Node B     | Node used by endpoints |
-| :-----------: | :------------: | :------------: | :--------------------: |
-| 1 (_initial_) | AttachedSingle |   Secondary    |           A            |
-|       2       | AttachedStale  | AttachedMulti  |           A            |
-|       3       | AttachedStale  | AttachedMulti  |           A            |
-|       4       | AttachedStale  | AttachedMulti  |           A            |
-| 5 (_cutover_) | AttachedStale  | AttachedMulti  |           B            |
-|       6       | AttachedStale  | AttachedSingle |           B            |
-|  7 (_final_)  |   Secondary    | AttachedSingle |           B            |
-
-The procedure described for a clean handover from a live node to a secondary
-is also used for failure cases and for migrations to a location that is not
-configured as a secondary, by simply skipping irrelevant steps, as described in
-the following sections.
-
-#### Migration from an unresponsive node
-
-If node A is unavailable, then all calls into
-node A are skipped and we don't wait for B to catch up before
-switching updating the endpoints to use B.
-
-#### Migration to a location that is not a secondary
-
-If node B is initially in Detached state, the procedure is identical. Since Node B
-is coming from a Detached state rather than Secondary, the download of layers and
-catch up with WAL will take much longer.
-
-We might do this if:
-
- Attached and secondary locations are both critically low on disk, and we need
-  to migrate to a third node with more resources available.
- We are migrating a tenant which does not use secondary locations to save on cost.
-
-#### Permanent migration away from a node
-
-In the final step of the migration, we generally request the original node to enter a Secondary
-state. This is typical if we are doing a planned migration during maintenance, or to
-balance CPU/network load away from a node.
-
-One might also want to permanently migrate away: this can be done by simply removing the secondary
-location after the migration is complete, or as an optimization by substituting the Detached state
-for the Secondary state in the final step.

-## Implementation (detail)
-
-### Purpose of AttachedMulti, AttachedStale
-
-#### AttachedMulti
-
-Ordinarily, an attached pageserver whose generation is the latest may delete
-layers at will (e.g. during compaction). If a previous generation pageserver
-is also still attached, and in use by endpoints, then this layer deletion could
-lead to a loss of availability for the endpoint when reading from the previous
-generation pageserver.
-
-The _AttachedMulti_ state simply disables deletions. These will be enqueued
-in `RemoteTimelineClient` until the control plane transitions the
-node into AttachedSingle, which unblocks deletions.  Other remote storage operations
-such as uploads are not blocked.
-
-AttachedMulti is not required for data safety, only to preserve availability
-on pageservers running with stale generations.
-
-A node enters AttachedMulti only when explicitly asked to by the control plane. It should
-only remain in this state for the duration of a migration.
-
-If a control plane bug leaves
-the node in AttachedMulti for a long time, then we must avoid unbounded memory use from enqueued
-deletions. This may be accomplished simply, by dropping enqueued deletions when some modest
-threshold of delayed deletions (e.g. 10k layers per tenant) is reached. As with all deletions,
-it is safe to skip them, and the leaked objects will be eventually cleaned up by scrub or
-by timeline deletion.
-
-During AttachedMulti, the Tenant is free to drop layers from local disk in response to
-disk pressure: only the deletion of remote layers is blocked.
-
-#### AttachedStale
-
-Currently, a pageserver with a stale generation number will continue to
-upload layers, but be prevented from completing deletions. This is safe, but inefficient: layers uploaded by this stale generation
-will not be read back by future generations of pageservers.
-
-The _AttachedStale_ state disables S3 uploads. The stale pageserver
-will continue to ingest the WAL and write layers to local disk, but not to
-do any uploads to S3.
-
-A node may enter AttachedStale in two ways:
-
- Explicitly, when control plane calls into the node at the start of a migration.
- Implicitly, when the node tries to validate some deletions and discovers
-  that its generation is stale.
-
-The AttachedStale state also disables sending consumption metrics from
-that location: it is interpreted as an indication that some other pageserver
-is already attached or is about to be attached, and that new pageserver will
-be responsible for sending consumption metrics.
-
-#### Disk Pressure & AttachedStale
-
-Over long periods of time, a tenant location in AttachedStale will accumulate data
-on local disk, as it cannot evict any layers written since it entered the
-AttachStale state. We rely on the control plane to revert the location to
-Secondary or Detached at the end of a migration.
-
-This scenario is particularly noteworthy when evacuating all tenants on a pageserver:
-since _all_ the attached tenants will go into AttachedStale, we will be doing no
-uploads at all, therefore ingested data will cause disk usage to increase continuously.
-Under nominal conditions, the available disk space on pageservers should be sufficient
-to complete the evacuation before this becomes a problem, but we must also handle
-the case where we hit a low disk situation while in this state.
-
-The concept of disk pressure already exists in the pageserver: the `disk_usage_eviction_task`
-touches each Tenant when it determines that a low-disk condition requires
-some layer eviction. Having selected layers for eviction, the eviction
-task calls `Timeline::evict_layers`.
-
-**Safety**: If evict_layers is called while in AttachedStale state, and some of the to-be-evicted
-layers are not yet uploaded to S3, then the block on uploads will be lifted. This
-will result in leaking some objects once a migration is complete, but will enable
-the node to manage its disk space properly: if a node is left with some tenants
-in AttachedStale indefinitely due to a network partition or control plane bug,
-these tenants will not cause a full disk condition.
-
-### Warm secondary updates
-
-#### Layer heatmap
-
-The secondary location's job is to serve reads **with the same quality of service as the original location
-was serving them around the time of a migration**. This does not mean the secondary
-location needs the whole set of layers: inactive layers that might soon
-be evicted on the attached pageserver need not be downloaded by the
-secondary. A totally idle tenant only needs to maintain enough on-disk
-state to enable a fast cold start (i.e. the most recent image layers are
-typically sufficient).
-
-To enable this, we introduce the concept of a _layer heatmap_, which
-acts as an advisory input to secondary locations to decide which
-layers to download from S3.
-
-#### Attached pageserver
-
-The attached pageserver, if in state AttachedSingle, periodically
-uploads a serialized heat map to S3. It may skip this if there
-is no change since the last time it uploaded (e.g. if the tenant
-is totally idle).
-
-Additionally, when the tenant is flushed to remote storage prior to a migration
-(the first step in [cutover procedure](#cutover-procedure)), 
-the heatmap is written out. This enables a future attached pageserver
-to get an up to date view when deciding which layers to download.
-
-#### Secondary location behavior
-
-Secondary warm locations run a simple loop, implemented separately from
-the main `Tenant` type, which represents attached tenants:
-
- Download the layer heatmap
- Select any "hot enough" layers to download, if there is sufficient
-  free disk space.
- Download layers, if they were not previously evicted (see below)
- Download the latest index_part.json
- Check if any layers currently on disk are no longer referenced by
-  IndexPart & delete them
-
-Note that the heatmap is only advisory: if a secondary location has plenty
-of disk space, it may choose to retain layers that aren't referenced
-by the heatmap, as long as they are still referenced by the IndexPart. Conversely,
-if a node is very low on disk space, it might opt to raise the heat threshold required
-to both downloading a layer, until more disk space is available.
-
-#### Secondary locations & disk pressure
-
-Secondary locations are subject to eviction on disk pressure, just as
-attached locations are.  For eviction purposes, the access time of a
-layer in a secondary location will be the access time given in the heatmap,
-rather than the literal time at which the local layer file was accessed.
-
-The heatmap will indicate which layers are in local storage on the attached
-location.  The secondary will always attempt to get back to having that
-set of layers on disk, but to avoid flapping, it will remember the access
-time of the layer it was most recently asked to evict, and layers whose
-access time is below that will not be re-downloaded.
-
-The resulting behavior is that after a layer is evicted from a secondary
-location, it is only re-downloaded once the attached pageserver accesses
-the layer and uploads a heatmap reflecting that access time.  On a pageserver
-restart, the secondary location will attempt to download all layers in
-the heatmap again, if they are not on local disk.
-
-This behavior will be slightly different when secondary locations are
-used for "low energy tenants", but that is beyond the scope of this RFC.
-
-### Location configuration API
-
-Currently, the `/tenant/<tenant_id>/config` API defines various
-tunables like compaction settings, which apply to the tenant irrespective
-of which pageserver it is running on.
-
-A new "location config" structure will be introduced, which defines
-configuration which is per-tenant, but local to a particular pageserver,
-such as the attachment mode and whether it is a secondary.
-
-The pageserver will expose a new per-tenant API for setting
-the state: `/tenant/<tenant_id>/location/config`.
-
-Body content:
-
-```
-{
-  state: 'enum{Detached, Secondary, AttachedSingle, AttachedMulti, AttachedStale}',
-  generation: Option<u32>,
-  configuration: `Option<TenantConfig>`
-  flush: bool
-}
-```
-
-Existing `/attach` and `/detach` endpoint will have the same
-behavior as calling `/location/config` with `AttachedSingle` and `Detached`
-states respectively. These endpoints will be deprecated and later
-removed.
-
-The generation attribute is mandatory for entering `AttachedSingle` or
-`AttachedMulti`.
-
-The configuration attribute is mandatory when entering any state other
-than `Detached`. This configuration is the same as the body for
-the existing `/tenant/<tenant_id>/config` endpoint.
-
-The `flush` argument indicates whether the pageservers should flush
-to S3 before proceeding: this only has any effect if the node is
-currently in AttachedSingle or AttachedMulti. This is used
-during the first phase of migration, when transitioning the
-old pageserver to AttachedSingle.
-
-The `/re-attach` API response will be extended to include a `state` as
-well as a `generation`, enabling the pageserver to enter the
-correct state for each tenant on startup.
-
-### Database schema for locations
-
-A new table `ProjectLocation`:
-
- pageserver_id: int
- tenant_id: TenantId
- generation: Option<int>
- state: `enum(Secondary, AttachedSingle, AttachedMulti)`
-
-Notes:
-
- It is legacy for a Project to have zero `ProjectLocation`s
- The `pageserver` column in `Project` now means "to which pageserver should
-  endpoints connect", rather than simply which pageserver is attached.
- The `generation` column in `Project` remains, and is incremented and used
-  to set the generation of `ProjectLocation` rows when they are set into
-  an attached state.
- The `Detached` state is implicitly represented as the absence of
-  a `ProjectLocation`.
-
-### Executing migrations
-
-Migrations will be implemented as Go functions, within the
-existing `Operation` framework in the control plane. These
-operations are persistent, such that they will always keep
-trying until completion: this property is important to avoid
-leaving garbage behind on pageservers, such as AttachedStale
-locations.
-
-### Recovery from failures during migration
-
-During migration, the control plane may encounter failures of either
-the original or new pageserver, or both:
-
- If the original fails, skip past waiting for the new pageserver
-  to catch up, and put it into AttachedSingle immediately.
- If the new node fails, put the old pageserver into Secondary
-  and then back into AttachedSingle (this has the effect of
-  retaining on-disk state and granting it a fresh generation number).
- If both nodes fail, keep trying until one of them is available
-  again.
-
-### Control plane -> Pageserver reconciliation
-
-A migration may be done while the old node is unavailable,
-in which case the old node may still be running in an AttachedStale
-state.
-
-In this case, it is undesirable to have the migration `Operation`
-stay alive until the old node eventually comes back online
-and can be cleaned up. To handle this, the control plane
-should run a background reconciliation process to compare
-a pageserver's attachments with the database, and clean up
-any that shouldn't be there any more.
-
-Note that there will be no work to do if the old node was really
-offline, as during startup it will call into `/re-attach` and
-be updated that way. The reconciliation will only be needed
-if the node was unavailable but still running.
-
-## Alternatives considered
-
-### Only enabling secondary locations for tenants on a higher service tier
-
-This will make sense in future, especially for tiny databases that may be
-downloaded from S3 in milliseconds when needed.
-
-However, it is not wise to do it immediately, because pageservers contain
-a mixture of higher and lower tier workloads. If we had 1 tenant with
-a secondary location and 9 without, then those other 9 tenants will do
-a lot of I/O as they try to recover from S3, which may degrade the
-service of the tenant which had a secondary location.
-
-Until we segregate tenant on different service tiers on different pageserver
-nodes, or implement & test QoS to ensure that tenants with secondaries are
-not harmed by tenants without, we should use the same failover approach
-for all the tenants.
-
-### Hot secondary locations (continuous WAL replay)
-
-Instead of secondary locations populating their caches from S3, we could
-have them consume the WAL from safekeepers. The downsides of this would be:
-
- Double load on safekeepers, which are a less scalable service than S3
- Secondary locations' on-disk state would end up subtly different to
-  the remote state, which would make synchronizing with S3 more complex/expensive
-  when going into attached state.
-
-The downside of only updating secondary locations from S3 is that we will
-have a delay during migration from replaying the LSN range between what's
-in S3 and what's in the pageserver. This range will be very small on
-planned migrations, as we have the old pageserver flush to S3 immediately
-before attaching the new pageserver. On unplanned migrations (old pageserver
-is unavailable), the range of LSNs to replay is bounded by the flush frequency
-on the old pageserver. However, the migration doesn't have to wait for the
-replay: it's just that not-yet-replayed LSNs will be unavailable for read
-until the new pageserver catches up.
-
-We expect that pageserver reads of the most recent LSNs will be relatively
-rare, as for an active endpoint those pages will usually still be in the postgres
-page cache: this leads us to prefer synchronizing from S3 on secondary
-locations, rather than consuming the WAL from safekeepers.
-
-### Cold secondary locations
-
-It is not functionally necessary to keep warm caches on secondary locations at all. However, if we do not, then
-we would experience a de-facto availability loss in unplanned migrations, as reads to the new node would take an extremely long time (many seconds, perhaps minutes).
-
-Warm caches on secondary locations are necessary to meet
-our availability goals.
-
-### Pageserver-granularity failover
-
-Instead of migrating tenants individually, we could have entire spare nodes,
-and on a node death, move all its work to one of these spares.
-
-This approach is avoided for several reasons:
-
- we would still need fine-grained tenant migration for other
-  purposes such as balancing load
- by sharing the spare capacity over many peers rather than one spare node,
-  these peers may use the capacity for other purposes, until it is needed
-  to handle migrated tenants. e.g. for keeping a deeper cache of their
-  attached tenants.
-
-### Readonly during migration
-
-We could simplify migrations by making both previous and new nodes go into a
-readonly state, then flush remote content from the previous node, then activate
-attachment on the secondary node.
-
-The downside to this approach is a potentially large gap in readability of
-recent LSNs while loading data onto the new node. To avoid this, it is worthwhile
-to incur the extra cost of double-replaying the WAL onto old and new nodes' local
-storage during a migration.
-
-### Peer-to-peer pageserver communication
-
-Rather than uploading the heatmap to S3, attached pageservers could make it
-available to peers.
-
-Currently, pageservers have no peer to peer communication, so adding this
-for heatmaps would incur significant overhead in deployment and configuration
-of the service, and ensuring that when a new pageserver is deployed, other
-pageservers are updated to be aware of it.
-
-As well as simplifying implementation, putting heatmaps in S3 will be useful
-for future analytics purposes -- gathering aggregated statistics on activity
-pattersn across many tenants may be done directly from data in S3.

-/// See the client creation in [`create_azure_client`] for details on the required env vars.
-/// If real Azure tests are disabled, the test passes, skipping any real test run: currently, there's no way to mark the test ignored in runtime with the
-/// deafult test framework, see https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/68007 for details.
-///
-/// First, the test creates a set of Azure blobs with keys `/${random_prefix_part}/${base_prefix_str}/sub_prefix_${i}/blob_${i}` in [`upload_azure_data`]
-/// where
-/// * `random_prefix_part` is set for the entire Azure client during the Azure client creation in [`create_azure_client`], to avoid multiple test runs interference
-/// * `base_prefix_str` is a common prefix to use in the client requests: we would want to ensure that the client is able to list nested prefixes inside the bucket
-///
-/// Then, verifies that the client does return correct prefixes when queried:
-/// * with no prefix, it lists everything after its `${random_prefix_part}/` — that should be `${base_prefix_str}` value only
-/// * with `${base_prefix_str}/` prefix, it lists every `sub_prefix_${i}`
-///
-/// With the real Azure enabled and `#[cfg(test)]` Rust configuration used, the Azure client test adds a `max-keys` param to limit the response keys.
-/// This way, we are able to test the pagination implicitly, by ensuring all results are returned from the remote storage and avoid uploading too many blobs to Azure.
-///
-/// Lastly, the test attempts to clean up and remove all uploaded Azure files.
-/// If any errors appear during the clean up, they get logged, but the test is not failed or stopped until clean up is finished.
