pageserver: do vectored read on each dio-aligned section once (#8763)

Part of #8130, closes #8719.

## Problem

Currently, vectored blob io only coalesce blocks if they are immediately
adjacent to each other. When we switch to Direct IO, we need a way to
coalesce blobs that are within the dio-aligned boundary but has gap
between them.

## Summary of changes

- Introduces a `VectoredReadCoalesceMode` for `VectoredReadPlanner` and
`StreamingVectoredReadPlanner` which has two modes:
  - `AdjacentOnly` (current implementation)
  - `Chunked(<alignment requirement>)`
- New `ChunkedVectorBuilder` that considers batching `dio-align`-sized
read, the start and end of the vectored read will respect
`stx_dio_offset_align` / `stx_dio_mem_align` (`vectored_read.start` and
`vectored_read.blobs_at.first().start_offset` will be two different
value).
- Since we break the assumption that blobs within single `VectoredRead`
are next to each other (implicit end offset), we start to store blob end
offsets in the `VectoredRead`.
- Adapted existing tests to run in both `VectoredReadCoalesceMode`.
- The io alignment can also be live configured at runtime.

+# Safekeeper dynamic membership change
+
+To quickly recover from safekeeper node failures and do rebalancing we need to
+be able to change set of safekeepers the timeline resides on. The procedure must
+be safe (not lose committed log) regardless of safekeepers and compute state. It
+should be able to progress if any majority of old safekeeper set, any majority
+of new safekeeper set and compute are up and connected. This is known as a
+consensus membership change. It always involves two phases: 1) switch old
+majority to old + new configuration, preventing commits without acknowledge from
+the new set 2) bootstrap the new set by ensuring majority of the new set has all
+data which ever could have been committed before the first phase completed;
+after that switch is safe to finish. Without two phases switch to the new set
+which quorum might not intersect with quorum of the old set (and typical case of
+ABC -> ABD switch is an example of that, because quorums AC and BD don't
+intersect). Furthermore, procedure is typically carried out by the consensus
+leader, and so enumeration of configurations which establishes order between
+them is done through consensus log.
+
+In our case consensus leader is compute (walproposer), and we don't want to wake
+up all computes for the change. Neither we want to fully reimplement the leader
+logic second time outside compute. Because of that the proposed algorithm relies
+for issuing configurations on the external fault tolerant (distributed) strongly
+consisent storage with simple API: CAS (compare-and-swap) on the single key.
+Properly configured postgres suits this.
+
+In the system consensus is implemented at the timeline level, so algorithm below
+applies to the single timeline.
+
+## Algorithm
+
+### Definitions
+
+A configuration is
+
+```
+struct Configuration {
+    generation: Generation, // a number uniquely identifying configuration
+    sk_set: Vec<NodeId>, // current safekeeper set
+    new_sk_set: Optional<Vec<NodeId>>,
+}
+```
+
+Configuration with `new_set` present is used for the intermediate step during
+the change and called joint configuration. Generations establish order of
+generations: we say `c1` is higher than `c2` if `c1.generation` >
+`c2.generation`.
+
+### Persistently stored data changes
+
+Safekeeper starts storing its current configuration in the control file. Update
+of is atomic, so in-memory value always matches the persistent one.
+
+External CAS providing storage (let's call it configuration storage here) also
+stores configuration for each timeline. It is initialized with generation 1 and
+initial set of safekeepers during timeline creation. Executed CAS on it must
+never be lost.
+
+### Compute <-> safekeeper protocol changes
+
+`ProposerGreeting` message carries walproposer's configuration if it is already
+established (see below), else null.  `AcceptorGreeting` message carries
+safekeeper's current `Configuration`. All further messages (`VoteRequest`,
+`VoteResponse`, `ProposerElected`, `AppendRequest`, `AppendResponse`) carry
+generation number, of walproposer in case of wp->sk message or of safekeeper in
+case of sk->wp message.
+
+### Safekeeper changes
+
+Basic rule: once safekeeper observes configuration higher than his own it
+immediately switches to it. It must refuse all messages with lower generation
+that his. It also refuses messages if it is not member of the current generation
+(that is, of either `sk_set` of `sk_new_set`), though it is likely not unsafe to
+process them (walproposer should ignore result anyway).
+
+If there is non null configuration in `ProposerGreeting` and it is higher than
+current safekeeper one, safekeeper switches to it.
+
+Safekeeper sends its current configuration in its first message to walproposer
+`AcceptorGreeting`. It refuses all other walproposer messages if the
+configuration generation in them is less than its current one. Namely, it
+refuses to vote, to truncate WAL in `handle_elected` and to accept WAL. In
+response it sends its current configuration generation to let walproposer know.
+
+Safekeeper gets `PUT /v1/tenants/{tenant_id}/timelines/{timeline_id}/configuration` 
+accepting `Configuration`. Safekeeper switches to the given conf it is higher than its
+current one and ignores it otherwise. In any case it replies with
+```
+struct ConfigurationSwitchResponse {
+    conf: Configuration,
+    term: Term,
+    last_log_term: Term,
+    flush_lsn: Lsn,
+}
+```
+
+### Compute (walproposer) changes
+
+Basic rule is that joint configuration requires votes from majorities in the
+both `set` and `new_sk_set`.
+
+Compute receives list of safekeepers to connect to from the control plane as
+currently and tries to communicate with all of them. However, the list does not
+define consensus members. Instead, on start walproposer tracks highest
+configuration it receives from `AcceptorGreeting`s. Once it assembles greetings
+from majority of `sk_set` and majority of `new_sk_set` (if it is present), it
+establishes this configuration as its own and moves to voting. 
+
+It should stop talking to safekeepers not listed in the configuration at this
+point, though it is not unsafe to continue doing so.
+
+To be elected it must receive votes from both majorites if `new_sk_set` is present.
+Similarly, to commit WAL it must receive flush acknowledge from both majorities.
+
+If walproposer hears from safekeeper configuration higher than his own (i.e.
+refusal to accept due to configuration change) it simply restarts.
+
+### Change algorithm
+
+The following algorithm can be executed anywhere having access to configuration
+storage and safekeepers. It is safe to interrupt / restart it and run multiple
+instances of it concurrently, though likely one of them won't make
+progress then. It accepts `desired_set: Vec<NodeId>` as input. 
+
+Algorithm will refuse to make the change if it encounters previous interrupted
+change attempt, but in this case it will try to finish it.
+
+It will eventually converge if old majority, new majority and configuration
+storage are reachable.
+
+1) Fetch current timeline configuration from the configuration storage.
+2) If it is already joint one and `new_set` is different from `desired_set`
+   refuse to change. However, assign join conf to (in memory) var
+   `join_conf` and proceed to step 4 to finish the ongoing change.
+3) Else, create joint `joint_conf: Configuration`: increment current conf number
+   `n` and put `desired_set` to `new_sk_set`. Persist it in the configuration
+   storage by doing CAS on the current generation: change happens only if
+   current configuration number is still `n`. Apart from guaranteeing uniqueness
+   of configurations, CAS linearizes them, ensuring that new configuration is
+   created only following the previous one when we know that the transition is
+   safe. Failed CAS aborts the procedure.
+4) Call `PUT` `configuration` on safekeepers from the current set,
+   delivering them `joint_conf`. Collecting responses from majority is required
+   to proceed. If any response returned generation higher than 
+   `joint_conf.generation`, abort (another switch raced us). Otherwise, choose
+   max `<last_log_term, flush_lsn>` among responses and establish it as
+   (in memory) `sync_position`. Also choose max `term` and establish it as (in
+   memory) `sync_term`. We can't finish the switch until majority of the new set
+   catches up to this `sync_position` because data before it could be committed
+   without ack from the new set. Similarly, we'll bump term on new majority
+   to `sync_term` so that two computes with the same term are never elected.
+4) Initialize timeline on safekeeper(s) from `new_sk_set` where it
+   doesn't exist yet by doing `pull_timeline` from the majority of the 
+   current set. Doing that on majority of `new_sk_set` is enough to
+   proceed, but it is reasonable to ensure that all `new_sk_set` members
+   are initialized -- if some of them are down why are we migrating there?
+5) Call `POST` `bump_term(sync_term)` on safekeepers from the new set. 
+   Success on majority is enough.
+6) Repeatedly call `PUT` `configuration` on safekeepers from the new set,
+   delivering them `joint_conf` and collecting their positions. This will
+   switch them to the `joint_conf` which generally won't be needed 
+   because `pull_timeline` already includes it and plus additionally would be
+   broadcast by compute. More importantly, we may proceed to the next step
+   only when `<last_log_term, flush_lsn>` on the majority of the new set reached 
+   `sync_position`. Similarly, on the happy path no waiting is not needed because 
+   `pull_timeline` already includes it. However, we should double
+    check to be safe. For example, timeline could have been created earlier e.g.
+    manually or after try-to-migrate, abort, try-to-migrate-again sequence. 
+7) Create `new_conf: Configuration` incrementing `join_conf` generation and having new 
+   safekeeper set as `sk_set` and None `new_sk_set`. Write it to configuration 
+   storage under one more CAS.
+8) Call `PUT` `configuration` on safekeepers from the new set,
+   delivering them `new_conf`. It is enough to deliver it to the majority 
+   of the new set; the rest can be updated by compute.
+
+I haven't put huge effort to make the description above very precise, because it
+is natural language prone to interpretations anyway. Instead I'd like to make TLA+
+spec of it.
+
+Description above focuses on safety. To make the flow practical and live, here a few more 
+considerations.
+1) It makes sense to ping new set to ensure it we are migrating to live node(s) before 
+  step 3.
+2) If e.g. accidentally wrong new sk set has been specified, before CAS in step `6` is completed 
+   it is safe to rollback to the old conf with one more CAS.
+3) On step 4 timeline might be already created on members of the new set for various reasons; 
+   the simplest is the procedure restart. There are more complicated scenarious like mentioned
+   in step 5. Deleting and re-doing `pull_timeline` is generally unsafe without involving 
+   generations, so seems simpler to treat existing timeline as success. However, this also 
+   has a disadvantage: you might imagine an surpassingly unlikely schedule where condition in
+   the step 5 is never reached until compute is (re)awaken up to synchronize new member(s).
+   I don't think we'll observe this in practice, but can add waking up compute if needed.
+4) In the end timeline should be locally deleted on the safekeeper(s) which are
+   in the old set but not in the new one, unless they are unreachable. To be
+   safe this also should be done under generation number (deletion proceeds only if 
+   current configuration is <= than one in request and safekeeper is not memeber of it).
+5) If current conf fetched on step 1 is already not joint and members equal to `desired_set`,
+   jump to step 7, using it as `new_conf`.
+
+## Implementation
+
+The procedure ought to be driven from somewhere. Obvious candidates are control
+plane and storage_controller; and as each of them already has db we don't want
+yet another storage. I propose to manage safekeepers in storage_controller
+because 1) since it is in rust it simplifies simulation testing (more on this
+below) 2) it already manages pageservers. 
+
+This assumes that migration will be fully usable only after we migrate all
+tenants/timelines to storage_controller. It is discussible whether we want also
+to manage pageserver attachments for all of these, but likely we do.
+
+This requires us to define storcon <-> cplane interface.
+
+### storage_controller <-> control plane interface
+
+First of all, control plane should
+[change](https://neondb.slack.com/archives/C03438W3FLZ/p1719226543199829)
+storing safekeepers per timeline instead of per tenant because we can't migrate
+tenants atomically. 
+
+The important question is how updated configuration is delivered from
+storage_controller to control plane to provide it to computes. As always, there
+are two options, pull and push. Let's do it the same push as with pageserver
+`/notify-attach` because 1) it keeps storage_controller out of critical compute
+start path 2) provides easier upgrade: there won't be such a thing as 'timeline
+managed by control plane / storcon', cplane just takes the value out of its db
+when needed 3) uniformity. It makes storage_controller responsible for retrying notifying
+control plane until it succeeds.
+
+So, cplane `/notify-safekeepers` for the timeline accepts `Configuration` and
+updates it in the db if the provided conf generation is higher (the cplane db
+should also store generations for this). Similarly to [`/notify-attach`](https://www.notion.so/neondatabase/Storage-Controller-Control-Plane-interface-6de56dd310a043bfa5c2f5564fa98365), it
+should update db which makes the call successful, and then try to schedule
+`apply_config` if possible, it is ok if not. storage_controller 
+should rate limit calling the endpoint, but likely this won't be needed, as migration
+throughput is limited by `pull_timeline`.
+
+Timeline (branch) creation in cplane should call storage_controller POST
+`tenant/:tenant_id/timeline` like it currently does for sharded tenants.
+Response should be augmented with `safekeeper_conf: Configuration`. The call
+should be retried until succeeds.
+
+Timeline deletion and tenant deletion in cplane should call appropriate
+storage_controller endpoints like it currently does for sharded tenants. The
+calls should be retried until they succeed.
+
+### storage_controller implementation
+
+Current 'load everything on startup and keep in memory' easy design is fine.
+Single timeline shouldn't take more than 100 bytes (it's 16 byte tenant_id, 16
+byte timeline_id, int generation, vec of ~3 safekeeper ids plus some flags), so
+10^6 of timelines shouldn't take more than 100MB.
+
+Similar to pageserver attachment Intents storage_controller would have in-memory
+`MigrationRequest` (or its absense) for each timeline and pool of tasks trying
+to make these request reality; this ensures one instance of storage_controller
+won't do several migrations on the same timeline concurrently. In the first
+version it is simpler to have more manual control and no retries, i.e. migration
+failure removes the request. Later we can build retries and automatic
+scheduling/migration. `MigrationRequest` is
+```
+enum MigrationRequest {
+    To(Vec<NodeId>),
+    FinishPending,
+}
+```
+
+`FinishPending` requests to run the procedure to ensure state is clean: current
+configuration is not joint and majority of safekeepers are aware of it, but do
+not attempt to migrate anywhere. If current configuration fetched on step 1 is
+not joint it jumps to step 7. It should be run at startup for all timelines (but
+similarly, in the first version it is ok to trigger it manually).
+
+#### Schema
+
+`safekeepers` table mirroring current `nodes` should be added, except that for
+`scheduling_policy` field (seems like `status` is a better name for it): it is enough
+to have at least in the beginning only 3 fields: 1) `active` 2) `offline` 3)
+`decomissioned`.
+
+`timelines` table:
+```
+table! {
+    // timeline_id is primary key
+    timelines (tenant_id, timeline_id) {
+        timeline_id -> Varchar,
+        tenant_id -> Varchar,
+        generation -> Int4,
+        sk_set -> Array<Int4>, // list of safekeeper ids
+        new_sk_set -> Nullable<Array<Int4>>, // list of safekeeper ids, null if not joint conf
+        cplane_notified_generation -> Int4,
+    }
+}
+```
+
+#### API
+
+Node management is similar to pageserver:
+1) POST `/control/v1/safekeepers` upserts safekeeper.
+2) GET `/control/v1/safekeepers` lists safekeepers.
+3) GET `/control/v1/safekeepers/:node_id` gets safekeeper.
+4) PUT `/control/v1/safekepers/:node_id/status` changes status to e.g.
+   `offline` or `decomissioned`. Initially it is simpler not to schedule any
+    migrations here.
+
+Safekeeper deploy scripts should register safekeeper at storage_contorller as
+they currently do with cplane, under the same id.
+
+Timeline creation/deletion: already existing POST `tenant/:tenant_id/timeline`
+would 1) choose initial set of safekeepers; 2) write to the db initial
+`Configuration` with `INSERT ON CONFLICT DO NOTHING` returning existing row in
+case of conflict; 3) create timeline on the majority of safekeepers (already
+created is ok).
+
+We don't want to block timeline creation when one safekeeper is down. Currently
+this is solved by compute implicitly creating timeline on any safekeeper it is
+connected to. This creates ugly timeline state on safekeeper when timeline is
+created, but start LSN is not defined yet. It would be nice to remove this; to
+do that, controller can in the background retry to create timeline on
+safekeeper(s) which missed that during initial creation call. It can do that
+through `pull_timeline` from majority so it doesn't need to remember
+`parent_lsn` in its db.
+
+Timeline deletion removes the row from the db and forwards deletion to the
+current configuration members. Without additional actions deletions might leak,
+see below on this; initially let's ignore these, reporting to cplane success if
+at least one safekeeper deleted the timeline (this will remove s3 data).
+
+Tenant deletion repeats timeline deletion for all timelines.
+
+Migration API: the first version is the simplest and the most imperative:
+1) PUT `/control/v1/safekeepers/migrate` schedules `MigrationRequest`s to move
+all timelines from one safekeeper to another. It accepts json
+```
+{
+    "src_sk": u32,
+    "dst_sk": u32,
+    "limit": Optional<u32>,
+}
+```
+
+Returns list of scheduled requests.
+
+2) PUT `/control/v1/tenant/:tenant_id/timeline/:timeline_id/safekeeper_migrate` schedules `MigrationRequest`
+   to move single timeline to given set of safekeepers:
+```
+{
+    "desired_set": Vec<u32>,
+}
+```
+
+Returns scheduled request.
+
+Similar call should be added for the tenant.
+
+It would be great to have some way of subscribing to the results (apart from
+looking at logs/metrics).
+
+Migration is executed as described above. One subtlety is that (local) deletion on
+source safekeeper might fail, which is not a problem if we are going to
+decomission the node but leaves garbage otherwise. I'd propose in the first version
+1) Don't attempt deletion at all if node status is `offline`.
+2) If it failed, just issue warning.
+And add PUT `/control/v1/safekeepers/:node_id/scrub` endpoint which would find and 
+remove garbage timelines for manual use. It will 1) list all timelines on the 
+safekeeper 2) compare each one against configuration storage: if timeline 
+doesn't exist at all (had been deleted), it can be deleted. Otherwise, it can 
+be deleted under generation number if node is not member of current generation.
+
+Automating this is untrivial; we'd need to register all potential missing
+deletions <tenant_id, timeline_id, generation, node_id> in the same transaction
+which switches configurations. Similarly when timeline is fully deleted to
+prevent cplane operation from blocking when some safekeeper is not available
+deletion should be also registered.
+
+One more task pool should infinitely retry notifying control plane about changed
+safekeeper sets.
+
+3) GET `/control/v1/tenant/:tenant_id/timeline/:timeline_id/` should return
+   current in memory state of the timeline and pending `MigrationRequest`,
+   if any.
+
+4) PUT `/control/v1/tenant/:tenant_id/timeline/:timeline_id/safekeeper_migrate_abort` tries to abort the
+   migration by switching configuration from the joint to the one with (previous) `sk_set` under CAS
+   (incrementing generation as always).
+
+#### Dealing with multiple instances of storage_controller
+
+Operations described above executed concurrently might create some errors but do
+not prevent progress, so while we normally don't want to run multiple instances
+of storage_controller it is fine to have it temporarily, e.g. during redeploy.
+
+Any interactions with db update in-memory controller state, e.g. if migration
+request failed because different one is in progress, controller remembers that
+and tries to finish it.
+
+## Testing
+
+`neon_local` should be switched to use storage_controller, playing role of
+control plane.
+
+There should be following layers of tests:
+1) Model checked TLA+ spec specifies the algorithm and verifies its basic safety.
+
+2) To cover real code and at the same time test many schedules we should have
+   simulation tests. For that, configuration storage, storage_controller <->
+   safekeeper communication and pull_timeline need to be mocked and main switch
+   procedure wrapped to as a node (thread) in simulation tests, using these
+   mocks. Test would inject migrations like it currently injects
+   safekeeper/walproposer restars. Main assert is the same -- committed WAL must
+   not be lost.
+
+3) Since simulation testing injects at relatively high level points (not
+   syscalls), it omits some code, in particular `pull_timeline`. Thus it is
+   better to have basic tests covering whole system as well. Extended version of
+   `test_restarts_under_load` would do: start background load and do migration 
+   under it, then restart endpoint and check that no reported commits 
+   had been lost. I'd also add one more creating classic network split scenario, with
+   one compute talking to AC and another to BD while migration from nodes ABC to ABD
+   happens.
+
+4) Simple e2e test should ensure that full flow including cplane notification works.
+
+## Order of implementation and rollout
+
+Note that 
+- Control plane parts and integration with it is fully independent from everything else
+  (tests would use simulation and neon_local).
+- There is a lot of infra work making storage_controller aware of timelines and safekeepers
+  and its impl/rollout should be separate from migration itself.
+- Initially walproposer can just stop working while it observers joint configuration.
+  Such window would be typically very short anyway.
+
+To rollout smoothly, both walproposer and safekeeper should have flag
+`configurations_enabled`; when set to false, they would work as currently, i.e.
+walproposer is able to commit on whatever safekeeper set it is provided. Until
+all timelines are managed by storcon we'd need to use current script to migrate
+and update/drop entries in the storage_controller database if it has any.
+
+Safekeepers would need to be able to talk both current and new protocol version
+with compute to reduce number of computes restarted in prod once v2 protocol is
+deployed (though before completely switching we'd need to force this).
+
+Let's have the following rollout order:
+- storage_controller becomes aware of safekeepers;
+- storage_controller gets timeline creation for new timelines and deletion requests, but
+  doesn't manage all timelines yet. Migration can be tested on these new timelines.
+  To keep control plane and storage_controller databases in sync while control 
+  plane still chooses the safekeepers initially (until all timelines are imported
+  it can choose better), `TimelineCreateRequest` can get optional safekeepers
+  field with safekeepers chosen by cplane.
+- Then we can import all existing timelines from control plane to
+  storage_controller and gradually enable configurations region by region.
+
+
+Very rough implementation order:
+- Add concept of configurations to safekeepers (including control file),
+  implement v3 protocol.
+- Implement walproposer changes, including protocol.
+- Implement storconn part. Use it in neon_local (and pytest).
+- Make cplane store safekeepers per timeline instead of per tenant.
+- Implement cplane/storcon integration. Route branch creation/deletion 
+  through storcon. Then we can test migration of new branches.
+- Finally import existing branches. Then we can drop cplane 
+  safekeeper selection code. Gradually enable configurations at 
+  computes and safekeepers. Before that, all computes must talk only
+  v3 protocol version.
+
+## Integration with evicted timelines
+
+Currently, `pull_timeline` doesn't work correctly with evicted timelines because
+copy would point to original partial file. To fix let's just do s3 copy of the
+file. It is a bit stupid as generally unnecessary work, but it makes sense to
+implement proper migration before doing smarter timeline archival. [Issue](https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/8542)
+
+## Possible optimizations
+
+Steps above suggest walproposer restart (with re-election) and thus reconnection
+to safekeepers. Since by bumping term on new majority we ensure that leader
+terms are unique even across generation switches it is possible to preserve
+connections. However, it is more complicated, reconnection is very fast and it
+is much more important to avoid compute restart than millisecond order of write
+stall.
+
+Multiple joint consensus: algorithm above rejects attempt to change membership
+while another attempt is in progress. It is possible to overlay them and AFAIK
+Aurora does this but similarly I don't think this is needed.
+
+## Misc
+
+We should use Compute <-> safekeeper protocol change to include other (long
+yearned) modifications:
+- send data in network order to make arm work.
+- remove term_start_lsn from AppendRequest
+- add horizon to TermHistory
+- add to ProposerGreeting number of connection from this wp to sk

+# Physical Replication
+
+This RFC is a bit special in that we have already implemented physical
+replication a long time ago. However, we never properly wrote down all
+the decisions and assumptions, and in the last months when more users
+have started to use the feature, numerous issues have surfaced.
+
+This RFC documents the design decisions that have been made.
+
+## Summary
+
+PostgreSQL has a feature called streaming replication, where a replica
+streams WAL from the primary and continuously applies it. It is also
+known as "physical replication", to distinguish it from logical
+replication.  In PostgreSQL, a replica is initialized by taking a
+physical backup of the primary. In Neon, the replica is initialized
+from a slim "base backup" from the pageserver, just like a primary,
+and the primary and the replicas connect to the same pageserver,
+sharing the storage.
+
+There are two kinds of read-only replicas in Neon:
+- replicas that follow the primary, and
+- "static" replicas that are pinned at a particular LSN.
+
+A static replica is useful e.g. for performing time-travel queries and
+running one-off slow queries without affecting the primary. A replica
+that follows the primary can be used e.g. to scale out read-only
+workloads.
+
+## Motivation
+
+Read-only replicas allow offloading read-only queries. It's useful for
+isolation, if you want to make sure that read-only queries don't
+affect the primary, and it's also an easy way to provide guaranteed
+read-only access to an application, without having to mess with access
+controls.
+
+## Non Goals (if relevant)
+
+This RFC is all about WAL-based *physical* replication. Logical
+replication is a different feature.
+
+Neon also has the capability to launch "static" read-only nodes which
+do not follow the primary, but are pinned to a particular LSN. They
+can be used for long-running one-off queries, or for Point-in-time
+queries. They work similarly to read replicas that follow the primary,
+but some things are simpler: there are no concerns about cache
+invalidation when the data changes on the primary, or worrying about
+transactions that are in-progress on the primary.
+
+## Impacted components (e.g. pageserver, safekeeper, console, etc)
+
+- Control plane launches the replica
+- Replica Postgres instance connects to the safekeepers, to stream the WAL
+- The primary does not know about the standby, except for the hot standby feedback
+- The primary and replicas all connect to the same pageservers
+
+
+# Context
+
+Some useful things to know about hot standby and replicas in
+PostgreSQL.
+
+## PostgreSQL startup sequence
+
+"Running" and "start up" terms are little imprecise. PostgreSQL
+replica startup goes through several stages:
+
+1. First, the process is started up, and various initialization steps
+   are performed, like initializing shared memory. If you try to
+   connect to the server in this stage, you get an error: ERROR: the
+   database system is starting up. This stage happens very quickly, no
+
+2. Then the server reads the checpoint record from the WAL and starts
+   the WAL replay starting from the checkpoint. This works differently
+   in Neon: we start the WAL replay at the basebackup LSN, not from a
+   checkpoint! If you connect to the server in this state, you get an
+   error: ERROR: the database system is not yet accepting
+   connections. We proceed to the next stage, when the WAL replay sees
+   a running-xacts record. Or in Neon, the "CLOG scanning" mechanism
+   can allow us to move directly to next stage, with all the caveats
+   listed in this RFC.
+
+3. When the running-xacts information is established, the server
+   starts to accept connections normally.
+
+From PostgreSQL's point of view, the server is already running in
+stage 2, even though it's not accepting connections yet. Our
+`compute_ctl` does not consider it as running until stage 3. If the
+transition from stage 2 to 3 doesn't happen fast enough, the control
+plane will mark the start operation as failed.
+
+
+## Decisions, Issues
+
+### Cache invalidation in replica
+
+When a read replica follows the primary in PostgreSQL, it needs to
+stream all the WAL from the primary and apply all the records, to keep
+the local copy of the data consistent with the primary. In Neon, the
+replica can fetch the updated page versions from the pageserver, so
+it's not necessary to apply all the WAL. However, it needs to ensure
+that any pages that are currently in the Postgres buffer cache, or the
+Local File Cache, are either updated, or thrown away so that the next
+read of the page will fetch the latest version.
+
+We choose to apply the WAL records for pages that are already in the
+buffer cache, and skip records for other pages. Somewhat arbitrarily,
+we also apply records affecting catalog relations, fetching the old
+page version from the pageserver if necessary first. See
+`neon_redo_read_buffer_filter()` function.
+
+The replica wouldn't necessarily need to see all the WAL records, only
+the records that apply to cached pages. For simplicity, we do stream
+all the WAL to the replica, and the replica simply ignores WAL records
+that require no action.
+
+Like in PostgreSQL, the read replica maintains a "replay LSN", which
+is the LSN up to which the replica has received and replayed the
+WAL. The replica can lag behind the primary, if it cannot quite keep
+up with the primary, or if a long-running query conflicts with changes
+that are about to be applied, or even intentionally if the user wishes
+to see delayed data (see recovery_min_apply_delay). It's important
+that the replica sees a consistent view of the whole cluster at the
+replay LSN, when it's lagging behind.
+
+In Neon, the replica connects to a safekeeper to get the WAL
+stream. That means that the safekeepers must be able to regurgitate
+the original WAL as far back as the replay LSN of any running read
+replica. (A static read-only node that does not follow the primary
+does not require a WAL stream however). The primary does not need to
+be running, and when it is, the replicas don't incur any extra
+overhead to the primary (see hot standby feedback though).
+
+### In-progress transactions
+
+In PostgreSQL, when a hot standby server starts up, it cannot
+immediately open up for queries (see [PostgreSQL startup
+sequence]). It first needs to establish a complete list of in-progress
+transactions, including subtransactions, that are running at the
+primary, at the current replay LSN. Normally that happens quickly,
+when the replica sees a "running-xacts" WAL record, because the
+primary writes a running-xacts WAL record at every checkpoint, and in
+PostgreSQL the replica always starts the WAL replay from a checkpoint
+REDO point. (A shutdown checkpoint WAL record also implies that all
+the non-prepared transactions have ended.) If there are a lot of
+subtransactions in progress, however, the standby might need to wait
+for old transactions to complete before it can open up for queries.
+
+In Neon that problem is worse: a replica can start at any LSN, so
+there's no guarantee that it will see a running-xacts record any time
+soon. In particular, if the primary is not running when the replica is
+started, it might never see a running-xacts record.
+
+To make things worse, we initially missed this issue, and always
+started accepting queries at replica startup, even if it didn't have
+the transaction information. That could lead to incorrect query
+results and data corruption later. However, as we fixed that, we
+introduced a new problem compared to what we had before: previously
+the replica would always start up, but after fixing that bug, it might
+not. In a superficial way, the old behavior was better (but could lead
+to serious issues later!). That made fixing that bug was very hard,
+because as we fixed it, we made things (superficially) worse for
+others.
+
+See https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/7288 which fixed the
+bug, and follow-up PRs https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/8323
+and https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/8484 to try to claw back
+the cases that started to cause trouble as fixing it. As of this
+writing, there are still cases where a replica might not immediately
+start up, causing the control plane operation to fail, the remaining
+issues are tracked in https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/6211.
+
+One long-term fix for this is to switch to using so-called CSN
+snapshots in read replica. That would make it unnecessary to have the
+full in-progress transaction list in the replica at startup time. See
+https://commitfest.postgresql.org/48/4912/ for a work-in-progress
+patch to upstream to implement that.
+
+Another thing we could do is to teach the control plane about that
+distinction between "starting up" and "running but haven't received
+running-xacts information yet", so that we could keep the replica
+waiting longer in that stage, and also give any client connections the
+same `ERROR: the database system is not yet accepting connections`
+error that you get in standalone PostgreSQL in that state.
+
+
+### Recovery conflicts and Hot standby feedback
+
+It's possible that a tuple version is vacuumed away in the primary,
+even though it is still needed by a running transactions in the
+replica. This is called a "recovery conflict", and PostgreSQL provides
+various options for dealing with it. By default, the WAL replay will
+wait up to 30 s for the conflicting query to finish. After that, it
+will kill the running query, so that the WAL replay can proceed.
+
+Another way to avoid the situation is to enable the
+[`hot_standby_feedback`](https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/runtime-config-replication.html#GUC-HOT-STANDBY-FEEDBACK)
+option. When it is enabled, the primary will refrain from vacuuming
+tuples that are still needed in the primary. That means potentially
+bloating the primary, which violates the usual rule that read replicas
+don't affect the operations on the primary, which is why it's off by
+default. We leave it to users to decide if they want to turn it on,
+same as PostgreSQL.
+
+Neon supports `hot_standby_feedback` by passing the feedback messages
+from the replica to the safekeepers, and from safekeepers to the
+primary.
+
+### Relationship of settings between primary and replica
+
+In order to enter hot standby mode, some configuration options need to
+be set to the same or larger values in the standby, compared to the
+primary.  See [explanation in the PostgreSQL
+docs](https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/hot-standby.html#HOT-STANDBY-ADMIN)
+
+In Neon, we have this problem too. To prevent customers from hitting
+it, the control plane automatically adjusts the settings of a replica,
+so that they match or exceed the primary's settings (see
+https://github.com/neondatabase/cloud/issues/14903). However, you
+can still hit the issue if the primary is restarted with larger
+settings, while the replica is running.
+
+
+### Interaction with Pageserver GC
+
+The read replica can lag behind the primary. If there are recovery
+conflicts or the replica cannot keep up for some reason, the lag can
+in principle grow indefinitely. The replica will issue all GetPage
+requests to the pageservers at the current replay LSN, and needs to
+see the old page versions.
+
+If the retention period in the pageserver is set to be small, it may
+have already garbage collected away the old page versions. That will
+cause read errors in the compute, and can mean that the replica cannot
+make progress with the replication anymore.
+
+There is a mechanism for replica to pass information about its replay
+LSN to the pageserver, so that the pageserver refrains from GC'ing
+data that is still needed by the standby. It's called
+'standby_horizon' in the pageserver code, see
+https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/7368. A separate "lease"
+mechanism also is in the works, where the replica could hold a lease
+on the old LSN, preventing the pageserver from advancing the GC
+horizon past that point. The difference is that the standby_horizon
+mechanism relies on a feedback message from replica to safekeeper,
+while the least API is exposed directly from the pageserver. A static
+read-only node is not connected to safekeepers, so it cannot use the
+standby_horizon mechanism.
+
+
+### Synchronous replication
+
+We haven't put any effort into synchronous replication yet.
+
+PostgreSQL provides multiple levels of synchronicity. In the weaker
+levels, a transaction is not acknowledged as committed to the client
+in the primary until the WAL has been streamed to a replica or flushed
+to disk there. Those modes don't make senses in Neon, because the
+safekeepers handle durability.
+
+`synchronous_commit=remote_apply` mode would make sense. In that mode,
+the commit is not acknowledged to the client until it has been
+replayed in the replica. That ensures that after commit, you can see
+the commit in the replica too (aka. read-your-write consistency).
