## Problem
Since #9916 , the chaos code is actively fighting the optimizer: tenants
tend to be attached in their preferred AZ, so most chaos migrations were
moving them to a non-preferred AZ.
## Summary of changes
- When picking migrations, prefer to migrate things _toward_ their
preferred AZ when possible. Then pick shards to move the other way when
necessary.
The resulting behavior should be an alternating "back and forth" where
the chaos code migrates thiings away from home, and then migrates them
back on the next iteration.
The side effect will be that the chaos code actively helps to push
things into their home AZ. That's not contrary to its purpose though: we
mainly just want it to continuously migrate things to exercise
migration+notification code.
## Problem
Occasionally, we encounter bugs in test environments that can be
detected at the point of uploading an index, but we proceed to upload it
anyway and leave a tenant in a broken state that's awkward to handle.
## Summary of changes
- Validate index when submitting it for upload, so that we can see the
issue quickly e.g. in an API invoking compaction
- Validate index before executing the upload, so that we have a hard
enforcement that any code path that tries to upload an index will not
overwrite a valid index with an invalid one.
Add an endpoint to obtain the utilization of a safekeeper. Future
changes to the storage controller can use this endpoint to find the most
suitable safekeepers for newly created timelines, analogously to how
it's done for pageservers already.
Initially we just want to assign by timeline count, then we can iterate
from there.

## Problem
871e8b325f failed CI on main because a job
ran to soon. This was caused by
ea84ec357f. While `promote-images-dev`
does not inherently need `neon-image`, a few jobs depending on
`promote-images-dev` do need it, and previously had it when it was
`promote-images`, which depended on `test-images`, which in turn
depended on `neon-image`.
## Summary of changes
To ensure jobs depending `docker.io/neondatabase/neon` images get them,
`promote-images-dev` gets the dependency to `neon-image` back which it
previously had transitively through `test-images`.
Instead of generating our own request ID, we can just use the one
provided by the control plane. In the event, we get a request from a
client which doesn't set X-Request-ID, then we just generate one which
is useful for tracing purposes.

# Problem
`Tenant::shutdown` was occasionally taking many minutes (sometimes up to
20) in staging and prod if the
`page_service_pipelining.mode="concurrent-futures"` is enabled.
# Symptoms
The issue happens during shard migration between pageservers.
There is page_service unavailability and hence effectively downtime for
customers in the following case:
1. The source (state `AttachedStale`) gets stuck in `Tenant::shutdown`,
waiting for the gate to close.
2. Cplane/Storcon decides to transition the target `AttachedMulti` to
`AttachedSingle`.
3. That transition comes with a bump of the generation number, causing
the `PUT .../location_config` endpoint to do a full `Tenant::shutdown` /
`Tenant::attach` cycle for the target location.
4. That `Tenant::shutdown` on the target gets stuck, waiting for the
gate to close.
5. Eventually the gate closes (`close completed`), correlating with a
`page_service` connection handler logging that it's exiting because of a
network error (`Connection reset by peer` or `Broken pipe`).
While in (4):
- `Tenant::shutdown` is stuck waiting for all `Timeline::shutdown` calls
to complete.
So, really, this is a `Timeline::shutdown` bug.
- retries from Cplane/Storcon to complete above state transitions, fail
with errors related to the tenant mgr slot being in state
`TenantSlot::InProgress`, the tenant state being
`TenantState::Stopping`, and the timelines being in
`TimelineState::Stopping`, and the `Timeline::cancel` being cancelled.
- Existing (and/or new?) page_service connections log errors `error
reading relation or page version: Not found: Timed out waiting 30s for
tenant active state. Latest state: None`
# Root-Cause
After a lengthy investigation ([internal
write-up](https://www.notion.so/neondatabase/2025-01-09-batching-deadlock-Slow-Log-Analysis-in-Staging-176f189e00478050bc21c1a072157ca4?pvs=4))
I arrived at the following root cause.
The `spsc_fold` channel (`batch_tx`/`batch_rx`) that connects the
Batcher and Executor stages of the pipelined mode was storing a `Handle`
and thus `GateGuard` of the Timeline that was not shutting down.
The design assumption with pipelining was that this would always be a
short transient state.
However, that was incorrect: the Executor was stuck on writing/flushing
an earlier response into the connection to the client, i.e., socket
write being slow because of TCP backpressure.
The probable scenario of how we end up in that case:
1. Compute backend process sends a continuous stream of getpage prefetch
requests into the connection, but never reads the responses (why this
happens: see Appendix section).
2. Batch N is processed by Batcher and Executor, up to the point where
Executor starts flushing the response.
3. Batch N+1 is procssed by Batcher and queued in the `spsc_fold`.
4. Executor is still waiting for batch N flush to finish.
5. Batcher eventually hits the `TimeoutReader` error (10min).
From here on it waits on the
`spsc_fold.send(Err(QueryError(TimeoutReader_error)))`
which will never finish because the batch already inside the `spsc_fold`
is not
being read by the Executor, because the Executor is still stuck in the
flush.
(This state is not observable at our default `info` log level)
6. Eventually, Compute backend process is killed (`close()` on the
socket) or Compute as a whole gets killed (probably no clean TCP
shutdown happening in that case).
7. Eventually, Pageserver TCP stack learns about (6) through RST packets
and the Executor's flush() call fails with an error.
8. The Executor exits, dropping `cancel_batcher` and its end of the
spsc_fold.
This wakes Batcher, causing the `spsc_fold.send` to fail.
Batcher exits.
The pipeline shuts down as intended.
We return from `process_query` and log the `Connection reset by peer` or
`Broken pipe` error.
The following diagram visualizes the wait-for graph at (5)
```mermaid
flowchart TD
Batcher --spsc_fold.send(TimeoutReader_error)--> Executor
Executor --flush batch N responses--> socket.write_end
socket.write_end --wait for TCP window to move forward--> Compute
```
# Analysis
By holding the GateGuard inside the `spsc_fold` open, the pipelining
implementation
violated the principle established in
(https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/8339).
That is, that `Handle`s must only be held across an await point if that
await point
is sensitive to the `<Handle as Deref<Target=Timeline>>::cancel` token.
In this case, we were holding the Handle inside the `spsc_fold` while
awaiting the
`pgb_writer.flush()` future.
One may jump to the conclusion that we should simply peek into the
spsc_fold to get
that Timeline cancel token and be sensitive to it during flush, then.
But that violates another principle of the design from
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/8339.
That is, that the page_service connection lifecycle and the Timeline
lifecycles must be completely decoupled.
Tt must be possible to shut down one shard without shutting down the
page_service connection, because on that single connection we might be
serving other shards attached to this pageserver.
(The current compute client opens separate connections per shard, but,
there are plans to change that.)
# Solution
This PR adds a `handle::WeakHandle` struct that does _not_ hold the
timeline gate open.
It must be `upgrade()`d to get a `handle::Handle`.
That `handle::Handle` _does_ hold the timeline gate open.
The batch queued inside the `spsc_fold` only holds a `WeakHandle`.
We only upgrade it while calling into the various `handle_` methods,
i.e., while interacting with the `Timeline` via `<Handle as
Deref<Target=Timeline>>`.
All that code has always been required to be (and is!) sensitive to
`Timeline::cancel`, and therefore we're guaranteed to bail from it
quickly when `Timeline::shutdown` starts.
We will drop the `Handle` immediately, before we start
`pgb_writer.flush()`ing the responses.
Thereby letting go of our hold on the `GateGuard`, allowing the timeline
shutdown to complete while the page_service handler remains intact.
# Code Changes
* Reproducer & Regression Test
* Developed and proven to reproduce the issue in
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/10399
* Add a `Test` message to the pagestream protocol (`cfg(feature =
"testing")`).
* Drive-by minimal improvement to the parsing code, we now have a
`PagestreamFeMessageTag`.
* Refactor `pageserver/client` to allow sending and receiving
`page_service` requests independently.
* Add a Rust helper binary to produce situation (4) from above
* Rationale: (4) and (5) are the same bug class, we're holding a gate
open while `flush()`ing.
* Add a Python regression test that uses the helper binary to
demonstrate the problem.
* Fix
* Introduce and use `WeakHandle` as explained earlier.
* Replace the `shut_down` atomic with two enum states for `HandleInner`,
wrapped in a `Mutex`.
* To make `WeakHandle::upgrade()` and `Handle::downgrade()`
cache-efficient:
* Wrap the `Types::Timeline` in an `Arc`
* Wrap the `GateGuard` in an `Arc`
* The separate `Arc`s enable uncontended cloning of the timeline
reference in `upgrade()` and `downgrade()`.
If instead we were `Arc<Timeline>::clone`, different connection handlers
would be hitting the same cache line on every upgrade()/downgrade(),
causing contention.
* Please read the udpated module-level comment in `mod handle`
module-level comment for details.
# Testing & Performance
The reproducer test that failed before the changes now passes, and
obviously other tests are passing as well.
We'll do more testing in staging, where the issue happens every ~4h if
chaos migrations are enabled in storcon.
Existing perf testing will be sufficient, no perf degradation is
expected.
It's a few more alloctations due to the added Arc's, but, they're low
frequency.
# Appendix: Why Compute Sometimes Doesn't Read Responses
Remember, the whole problem surfaced because flush() was slow because
Compute was not reading responses. Why is that?
In short, the way the compute works, it only advances the page_service
protocol processing when it has an interest in data, i.e., when the
pagestore smgr is called to return pages.
Thus, if compute issues a bunch of requests as part of prefetch but then
it turns out it can service the query without reading those pages, it
may very well happen that these messages stay in the TCP until the next
smgr read happens, either in that session, or possibly in another
session.
If there’s too many unread responses in the TCP, the pageserver kernel
is going to backpressure into userspace, resulting in our stuck flush().
All of this stems from the way vanilla Postgres does prefetching and
"async IO":
it issues `fadvise()` to make the kernel do the IO in the background,
buffering results in the kernel page cache.
It then consumes the results through synchronous `read()` system calls,
which hopefully will be fast because of the `fadvise()`.
If it turns out that some / all of the prefetch results are not needed,
Postgres will not be issuing those `read()` system calls.
The kernel will eventually react to that by reusing page cache pages
that hold completed prefetched data.
Uncompleted prefetch requests may or may not be processed -- it's up to
the kernel.
In Neon, the smgr + Pageserver together take on the role of the kernel
in above paragraphs.
In the current implementation, all prefetches are sent as GetPage
requests to Pageserver.
The responses are only processed in the places where vanilla Postgres
would do the synchronous `read()` system call.
If we never get to that, the responses are queued inside the TCP
connection, which, once buffers run full, will backpressure into
Pageserver's sending code, i.e., the `pgb_writer.flush()` that was the
root cause of the problems we're fixing in this PR.
The extension now supports Postgres 17. The release also seems to be
binary compatible with the previous version.

## Problem
`test_storage_controller_node_deletion` sometimes failed because shards
were moving around during timeline creation, and neon_local isn't
tolerant of that. The movements were unexpected because the shards had
only just been created.
This was a regression from #9916Closes: #10383
## Summary of changes
- Make this test use multiple AZs -- this makes the storage controller's
scheduling reliably stable
Why this works: in #9916 , I made a simplifying assumption that we would
have multiple AZs to get nice stable scheduling -- it's much easier,
because each tenant has a well defined primary+secondary location when
they have an AZ preference and nodes have different AZs. Everything
still works if you don't have multiple AZs, but you just have this quirk
that sometimes the optimizer can disagree with initial scheduling, so
once in a while a shard moves after being created -- annoying for tests,
harmless IRL.
## Problem
All pageserver have the same application name which makes it hard to
distinguish them.
## Summary of changes
Include the node id in the application name sent to the safekeeper. This
should gives us
more visibility in logs. There's a few metrics that will increase in
cardinality by `pageserver_count`,
but that's fine.
## Problem
Node fills were limited to moving (total shards / node_count) shards. In
systems that aren't perfectly balanced already, that leads us to skip
migrating some of the shards that belong on this node, generating work
for the optimizer later to gradually move them back.
## Summary of changes
- Where a shard has a preferred AZ and is currently attached outside
this AZ, then always promote it during fill, irrespective of target fill
count
## Problem
We were comparing serialized configs from the database with serialized
configs from memory. If fields have been added/removed to TenantConfig,
this generates spurious consistency errors. This is fine in test
environments, but limits the usefulness of this debug API in the field.
Closes: https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/10369
## Summary of changes
- Do a decode/encode cycle on the config before comparing it, so that it
will have exactly the expected fields.
## Problem
gc-compaction needs the partitioning data to decide the job split. This
refactor allows concurrent access/computing the partitioning.
## Summary of changes
Make `partitioning` an ArcSwap so that others can access the
partitioning while we compute it. Fully eliminate the `repartition is
called concurrently` warning when gc-compaction is going on.

Rename the safekeeper scheduling policy "disabled" to "pause".
A rename was requested in
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/10400#discussion_r1916259124,
as the "disabled" policy is meant to be analogous to the "pause" policy
for pageservers.
Also simplify the `SkSchedulingPolicyArg::from_str` function, relying on
the `from_str` implementation of `SkSchedulingPolicy`. Latter is used
for the database format as well, so it is quite stable. If we ever want
to change the UI, we'll need to duplicate the function again but this is
cheap.
## Problem
Threads spawned in `test_tenant_delete_races_timeline_creation` are not
joined before the test ends, and can generate
`PytestUnhandledThreadExceptionWarning` in other tests.
https://neon-github-public-dev.s3.amazonaws.com/reports/pr-10419/12805365523/index.html#/testresult/53a72568acd04dbd
## Summary of changes
- Wrap threads in ThreadPoolExecutor which will join them before the
test ends
- Remove a spurious deletion call -- the background thread doing
deletion ought to succeed.
## Problem
When multiple changes are grouped in a merge group to be merged as part
of the merge queue, the changes might individually pass
`check-codestyle-rust` but not in their combined form.
## Summary of changes
- Move `check-codestyle-rust` into a reusable workflow that is called
from it's previous location in `build_and_test.yml`, and additionally
call it from `pre_merge_checks.yml`. The additional call does not run on
ARM, only x86, to ensure the merge queue continues being responsive.
- Trigger `pre_merge_checks.yml` on PRs that change any of the workflows
running in `pre_merge_checks.yml`, so that we get feedback on those
early an not only after trying to merge those changes.
This should fix the largest source of flakyness of
test_nbtree_pagesplit_cycleid.
## Problem
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/10390
## Summary of changes
By using a guaranteed-flushed LSN, we ensure that PS won't have to wait
forever.
(If it does wait forever, we know the issue can't be with Compute's WAL)
## Problem
As part of https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/8614 we need to
pass options to START_WAL_PUSH.
## Summary of changes
Add two options. `allow_timeline_creation`, default true, disables
implicit timeline creation in the connection from compute. Eventually
such creation will be forbidden completely, but as we migrate to
configurations we need to support both: current mode and configurations
enabled where creation by compute is disabled.
`proto_version` specifies compute <-> sk protocol version. We have it
currently in the first greeting package also, but I plan to change tag
size from u64 to u8, which would make it hard to use. Command is more
appropriate place for it anyway.
This reduces pressure on the OS TCP read buffer by increasing the
moments we read data out of the receive buffer, and increasing the
number of bytes we can pull from that buffer when we do reads.
## Problem
A backend may not always consume its prefetch data quick enough
## Summary of changes
We add a new function `prefetch_pump_state` which pulls as many prefetch
requests from the OS TCP receive buffer as possible, but without
blocking.
This thus reduces pressure on OS-level TCP buffers, thus increasing
throughput by limiting throttling caused by full TCP buffers.
## Problem
part of https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/9114
part of investigation of
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/10049
## Summary of changes
* If `cfg!(test) or cfg!(feature = testing)`, then we will always try
generating an image to ensure the history is replayable, but not put the
image layer into the final layer results, therefore discovering wrong
key history before we hit a read error.
* I suspect it's easier to trigger some races if gc-compaction is
continuously run on a timeline, so I increased the frequency to twice
per 10 churns.
* Also, create branches in gc-compaction smoke tests to get more test
coverage.

Implementing the last missing endpoint of #9981, this adds support to
set the scheduling policy of an individual safekeeper, as specified in
the RFC. However, unlike in the RFC we call the endpoint
`scheduling_policy` not `status`
Closes#9981.
As for why not use the upsert endpoint for this: we want to have the
safekeeper upsert endpoint be used for testing and for deploying new
safekeepers, but not for changes of the scheduling policy. We don't want
to change any of the other fields when marking a safekeeper as
decommissioned for example, so we'd have to first fetch them only to
then specify them again. Of course one can also design an endpoint where
one can omit any field and it doesn't get modified, but it's still not
great for observability to put everything into one big "change something
about this safekeeper" endpoint.
## Problem
Safekeepers currently decode and interpret WAL for each shard
separately.
This is wasteful in terms of CPU memory usage - we've seen this in
profiles.
## Summary of changes
Fan-out interpreted WAL to multiple shards.
The basic is that wal decoding and interpretation happens in a separate
tokio task and senders
attach to it. Senders only receive batches concerning their shard and
only past the Lsn they've last seen.
Fan-out is gated behind the `wal_reader_fanout` safekeeper flag
(disabled by default for now).
When fan-out is enabled, it might be desirable to control the absolute
delta between the
current position and a new shard's desired position (i.e. how far behind
or ahead a shard may be).
`max_delta_for_fanout` is a new optional safekeeper flag which dictates
whether to create a new
WAL reader or attach to the existing one. By default, this behaviour is
disabled. Let's consider enabling
it if we spot the need for it in the field.
## Testing
Tests passed [here](https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/10301)
with wal reader fanout enabled

## Problem
Currently, we call `InterpretedWalRecord::from_bytes_filtered`

just generate the shard for a key, but pre and post split shards
may be subscribed at the same time, so doing it efficiently is more
complex.
## Problem

Remove obsolete unused PersistedPeerInfo struct from control file (still
keep it control_file_upgrade.rs to have it in old upgrade code).
Remove the binary representation of cfile in the roundtrip test.
Updating it is annoying, and we still test the actual roundtrip.
Also add configuration to timeline creation http request, currently used
only in one python test. In passing, slightly change LSNs meaning in the
request: normally start_lsn is passed (the same as ancestor_start_lsn in
similar pageserver call), but we allow specifying higher commit_lsn for
manual intervention if needed. Also when given LSN initialize
term_history with it.

## Problem
With upload queue reordering in #10218, we can easily get into a
situation where multiple index uploads are queued back to back, which
can't be parallelized. This will happen e.g. when multiple layer flushes
enqueue layer/index/layer/index/... and the layers skip the queue and
are uploaded in parallel.
These index uploads will incur serial S3 roundtrip latencies, and may
block later operations.
Touches #10096.
## Summary of changes
When multiple back-to-back index uploads are ready to upload, only
upload the most recent index and drop the rest.
## Problem
The upload queue can currently schedule an arbitrary number of tasks.
This can both spawn an unbounded number of Tokio tasks, and also
significantly slow down upload queue scheduling as it's quadratic in
number of operations.
Touches #10096.
## Summary of changes
Limit the number of inprogress tasks to the remote storage upload
concurrency. While this concurrency limit is shared across all tenants,
there's certainly no point in scheduling more than this -- we could even
consider setting the limit lower, but don't for now to avoid
artificially constraining tenants.
By setting PATH in the 'pg-build' layer, all the extension build layers
will inherit. No need to pass PG_CONFIG to all the various make
invocations either: once pg_config is in PATH, the Makefiles will pick
it up from there.
## Problem
The upload queue currently sees significant head-of-line blocking. For
example, index uploads act as upload barriers, and for every layer flush
we schedule a layer and index upload, which effectively serializes layer
uploads.
Resolves#10096.
## Summary of changes
Allow upload queue operations to bypass the queue if they don't conflict
with preceding operations, increasing parallelism.
NB: the upload queue currently schedules an explicit barrier after every
layer flush as well (see #8550). This must be removed to enable
parallelism. This will require a better mechanism for compaction
backpressure, see e.g. #8390 or #5415.
## Problem
Since https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/9916, the preferred AZ
of a tenant is much more impactful, and we would like to make it more
visible in tooling.
## Summary of changes
- Include AZ in node describe API
- Include AZ info in node & tenant outputs in CLI
- Add metrics for per-node shard counts, labelled by AZ
- Add a CLI for setting preferred AZ on a tenant
- Extend AZ-setting API+CLI to handle None for clearing preferred AZ
## Problem
Before this PR, the pagestream throttle was applied weighted on a
per-batch basis.
This had several problems:
1. The throttle occurence counters were only bumped by `1` instead of
`batch_size`.
2. The throttle wait time aggregator metric only counted one wait time,
irrespective
of `batch_size`. That makes sense in some ways of looking at it but not
in others.
3. If the last request in the batch runs into the throttle, the other
requests in the
batch are also throttled, i.e., over-throttling happens (theoretical,
didn't measure
it in practice).
## Solution
It occured to me that we can simply push the throttling upwards into
`pagestream_read_message`.
This has the added benefit that in pipeline mode, the `executor` stage
will, if it is idle,
steal whatever requests already made it into the `spsc_fold` and execute
them; before this
change, that was not the case - the throttling happened in the
`executor` stage instead of
the `batcher` stage.
## Code Changes
There are two changes in this PR:
1. Lifting up the throttling into the `pagestream_read_message` method.
2. Move the throttling metrics out of the `Throttle` type into
`SmgrOpMetrics`.
Unlike the other smgr metrics, throttling is per-tenant, hence the Arc.
3. Refactor the `SmgrOpTimer` implementation to account for the new
observation states,
and simplify its design.
4. Drive-by-fix flush time metrics. It was using the same `now` in the
`observe_guard` every time.
The `SmgrOpTimer` is now a state machine.
Each observation point moves the state machine forward.
If a timer object is dropped early some "pair"-like metrics still
require an increment or observation.
That's done in the Drop implementation, by driving the state machine to
completion.
## Problem
Discovered during the relation dir refactor work.
If we do not create images as in this patch, we would get two set of
image layers:
```
0000...METADATA_KEYS
0000...REL_KEYS
```
They overlap at the same LSN and would cause data loss for relation
keys. This doesn't happen in prod because initial image layer generation
is never called, but better to be fixed to avoid future issues with the
reldir refactors.
## Summary of changes
* Consolidate create_image_layers call into a single one.

Because of https://github.com/Azure/azure-sdk-for-rust/issues/1739, our
identity token file was not being refreshed. This caused our uploads to
start failing when the storage token expired.
## Summary of changes
Drop and recreate the remote storage config every time we upload in
order to force reload the identity token file.

## Problem
We want to do a more robust job of scheduling tenants into their home
AZ: https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/8264.
Closes: https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/8969
## Summary of changes
### Scope
This PR combines prioritizing AZ with a larger rework of how we do
optimisation. The rationale is that just bumping AZ in the order of
Score attributes is a very tiny change: the interesting part is lining
up all the optimisation logic to respect this properly, which means
rewriting it to use the same scores as the scheduler, rather than the
fragile hand-crafted logic that we had before. Separating these changes
out is possible, but would involve doing two rounds of test updates
instead of one.
### Scheduling optimisation
`TenantShard`'s `optimize_attachment` and `optimize_secondary` methods
now both use the scheduler to pick a new "favourite" location. Then
there is some refined logic for whether + how to migrate to it:
- To decide if a new location is sufficiently "better", we generate
scores using some projected ScheduleContexts that exclude the shard
under consideration, so that we avoid migrating from a node with
AffinityScore(2) to a node with AffinityScore(1), only to migrate back
later.
- Score types get a `for_optimization` method so that when we compare
scores, we will only do an optimisation if the scores differ by their
highest-ranking attributes, not just because one pageserver is lower in
utilization. Eventually we _will_ want a mode that does this, but doing
it here would make scheduling logic unstable and harder to test, and to
do this correctly one needs to know the size of the tenant that one is
migrating.
- When we find a new attached location that we would like to move to, we
will create a new secondary location there, even if we already had one
on some other node. This handles the case where we have a home AZ A, and
want to migrate the attachment between pageservers in that AZ while
retaining a secondary location in some other AZ as well.
- A unit test is added for
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/8969, which is implicitly
fixed by reworking optimisation to use the same scheduling scores as
scheduling.
## Problem
In preparation to https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/9516. We
need to store rel size and directory data in the sparse keyspace, but it
does not support inheritance yet.
## Summary of changes
Add a new type of keyspace "sparse but inherited" into the system.
On the read path: we don't remove the key range when we descend into the
ancestor. The search will stop when (1) the full key range is covered by
image layers (which has already been implemented before), or (2) we
reach the end of the ancestor chain.

Generally ed25519 seems to be much preferred for cryptographic strength
to P256 nowadays, and it is NIST approved finally. We should use it
where we can as it's also faster than p256.
This PR makes the re-signed JWTs between local_proxy and pg_session_jwt
use ed25519.
This does introduce a new dependency on ed25519, but I do recall some
Neon Authorise customers asking for support for ed25519, so I am
justifying this dependency addition in the context that we can then
introduce support for customer ed25519 keys

* https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc8037#section-3.1
## Problem
Currently, if we want to move a secondary there isn't a neat way to do
that: we just have migration API for the attached location, and it is
only clean to use that if you've manually created a secondary via
pageserver API in the place you're going to move it to.
Secondary migration API enables:
- Moving the secondary somewhere because we would like to later move the
attached location there.
- Move the secondary location because we just want to reclaim some disk
space from its current location.
## Summary of changes
- Add `/migrate_secondary` API
- Add `tenant-shard-migrate-secondary` CLI
- Add tests for above
## Problem
We would sometimes fail to retry compute notifications:
1. Try and send, set compute_notify_failure if we can't
2. On next reconcile, reconcile() fails for some other reason (e.g.
tried to talk to an offline node), and we fail the `result.is_ok() &&
must_notify` condition around the re-sending.
Closes: https://github.com/neondatabase/cloud/issues/22612
## Summary of changes
- Clarify the meaning of the reconcile result: it should be Ok(()) if
configuring attached location worked, even if secondary or detach
locations cannot be reached.
- Skip trying to talk to secondaries if they're offline
- Even if reconcile fails and we can't send the compute notification (we
can't send it because we're not sure if it's really attached), make sure
we save the `compute_notify_failure` flag so that subsequent reconciler
runs will try again
- Add a regression test for the above
Taking continuous profiles every 20 seconds is likely too expensive (in
dollar terms). Let's try 60-second profiles. We can now interrupt
running profiles via `?force=true`, so this should be fine.
For testing the proxy's websockets support.
I wrote this to test https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/3822.
Unfortunately, that bug can *not* be reproduced with this tunnel. The
bug only appears when the client pipelines the first query with the
authentication messages. The tunnel doesn't do that.
---
Update (@conradludgate 2025-01-10):
We have since added some websocket tests, but they manually implemented
a very simplistic setup of the postgres protocol. Introducing the tunnel
would make more complex testing simpler in the future.

## Problem
Limitations found while using this to investigate
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/10234:
- If we hit a node consistency issue, we drop out and don't check shards
for consistency
- The messages printed after a shard consistency issue are huge, and
grafana appears to drop them.
## Summary of changes
- Defer node consistency errors until the end of the function, so that
we always proceed to check shards for consistency
- Print out smaller log lines that just point out the diffs between
expected and persistent state
With a new beta build of the rust compiler, it's good to check out the
new lints. Either to find false positives, or find flaws in our code.
Additionally, it helps reduce the effort required to update to 1.85 in 6
weeks.
## Problem
It's only possible to take one CPU profile at a time. With Grafana
continuous profiling, a (low-frequency) CPU profile will always be
running, making it hard to take an ad hoc CPU profile at the same time.
Resolves#10072.
## Summary of changes
Add a `force` parameter for `/profile/cpu` which will end and return an
already running CPU profile, starting a new one for the current caller.
## Problem
Currently, the heap profiling frequency is every 1 MB allocated. Taking
a profile stack trace takes about 1 µs, and allocating 1 MB takes about
15 µs, so the overhead is about 6.7% which is a bit high. This is a
fixed cost regardless of whether heap profiles are actually accessed.
## Summary of changes
Increase the heap profiling sample frequency from 1 MB to 2 MB, which
reduces the overhead to about 3.3%. This seems acceptable, considering
performance-sensitive code will avoid allocations as far as possible
anyway.
There used to be some pg version dependencies in these extensions, but
now that there isn't, follow the simpler pattern used in other
extensions. No change in the produced images.
We don't need or want the `active` column. Remove it. Vlad pointed out
that this is safe.
Thanks to the separation of the schemata in earlier PRs, this is easy.

When we moved throttling up from Timeline::get into page_service,
we stopped being sensitive to `Timeline::cancel`, even though we're
holding a Handle and thus a guard on the `Timeline::gate` open.
This PR rectifies the situation.
Refs
- Found while investigating #10309 (hung detach because gate kept open),
but not expected to be the root cause of that issue because the
affected tenants are not being throttled according to their metrics.
## Problem
https://github.com/neondatabase/infra/pull/2725 updated the scrubber to
use a non-host
port endpoint for storcon. That breaks when unwrapping the port.
## Summary of changes
Support both `host:port` and `host` formats for the storcon api.
## Problem
These two tests came up in #9537 as doing multi-gigabyte I/O, and from
inspection of the tests it doesn't seem like they need that to fulfil
their purpose.
## Summary of changes
- In test_local_file_cache_unlink, run fewer background threads with a
smaller number of rows. These background threads AFAICT exist to make
sure some I/O is going on while we unlink the LFC directory, but 5
threads should be enough for "some".
- In test_lfc_resize, tweak the test to validate that the cache size is
larger than the final size before resizing it, so that we're sure we're
writing enough data to really be doing something. Then decrease the
pgbench scale.
## Problem
When poetry v2 (released Jan 5) is used it needs `packaging.metadata`
module, but we downgrade `packaging` to 23.0. `packaging==23.1`
introduced the metadata submodule.
## Summary of changes
Update `packaging` to 24.2.
## Problem
This test writes ~5GB of data. It is not suitable to run in parallel
with all the other small tests in test_runner/regress.
via #9537
## Summary of changes
- Move test_parallel_copy into the performance directory, so that it
does not run in parallel with other tests
## Problem
I noticed in https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/9537 that tests
which work with compat snapshots were writing several hundred MB of
data, which isn't really necessary.
Also, the snapshots are large but don't have the proper variety of
storage format features, e.g. they could just have L0 deltas.
## Summary of changes
- Use smaller scale factor and runtime to generate less data
- Configure a small layer size and use force image layer generation so
that our output contains L1 deltas and image layers, and has a decent
number of entries in the layer map
## Problem
Unlike CPU profiles, the `/profile/heap` endpoint can't automatically
generate SVG flamegraphs. This requires the user to install and use
`pprof` tooling, which is unnecessary and annoying.
Resolves#10203.
## Summary of changes
Add `format=svg` for the `/profile/heap` route, and generate an SVG
flamegraph using the `inferno` crate, similarly to what `pprof-rs`
already does for CPU profiles.
# Problem
Before this PR, there were cases where send() in state
SenderWaitsForReceiverToConsume would never be woken up
by the receiver, because it never registered with `wake_sender`.
Example Scenario 1: we stop polling a send() future A that was waiting
for the receiver to consume. We drop A and create a new send() future B.
B would return Poll::Pending and never regsister a waker.
Example Scenario 2: a send() future A transitions from HasData
to SenderWaitsForReceiverToConsume. This registers the context X
with `wake_sender`. But before the Receiver consumes the data,
we poll A from a different context Y.
The state is still SenderWaitsForReceiverToConsume, but we wouldn't
register the new context with `wake_sender`.
When the Receiver comes around to consume and `wake_sender.notify()`s,
it wakes the old context X instead of Y.
# Fix
Register the waker in the case where we're polled in
state `SenderWaitsForReceiverToConsume`.
# Relation to #10309
I found this bug while investigating #10309.
There was never proof that this bug here is the root cause for #10309.
In the meantime we found a more probably hypothesis
for the root cause than what is being fixed here.
Regardless, let's walk through my thought process about
how it might have been relevant:
There (in page_service), Scenario 1 does not apply because
we poll the send() future to completion.
Scenario 2 (`tokio::join!`) also does not apply with the
current `tokio::join!()` impl, because it will just poll each
future every time, each with the same context.
Although if we ever used something like a FuturesUnordered anywhere,
that will be using a different context, so, in that case,
the bug might materialize.
Regarding tokio & spurious poll in general:
@conradludgate is not aware of any spurious wakeup cases in current
tokio,
but within a `tokio::join!()`, any wake meant for one future will poll
all
the futures, so that can appear as a spurious wake up to the N-1 futures
of the `tokio::join!()`.
## Problem
We were incorrectly constructing the ComputeUserInfo, used for
cancellation checks, based on the return parameters from postgres. This
didn't contain the correct info.
## Summary of changes
Propagate down the existing ComputeUserInfo.
## Problem
When the proxy receives a `Notification` with an unknown topic it's
supposed to use the `UnknownTopic` unit variant. Unfortunately, in
adjacently tagged enums serde will not simply ignore the configured
content if found and try to deserialize a map/object instead.
## Summary of changes
* Use a custom deserialize function to ignore variant content.
* Add a little unit test covering both cases.
## Problem
Auto-offloading as requested by the compaction task is racy with
unarchival, in that the compaction task might attempt to offload an
unarchived timeline. By that point it will already have set the timeline
to the `Stopping` state however, which makes it unusable for any
purpose. For example:
1. compaction task decides to offload timeline
2. timeline gets unarchived
3. `offload_timeline` gets called by compaction task
* sets timeline's state to `Stopping`
* realizes that the timeline can't be unarchived, errors out
6. endpoint can't be started as the timeline is `Stopping` and thus
'can't be found'.
A future iteration of the compaction task can't "heal" this state either
as the timeline will still not be archived, same goes for other
automatic stuff. The only way to heal this is a tenant detach+attach, or
alternatively a pageserver restart.
Furthermore, the compaction task is especially amenable for such races
as it first stores `can_offload` into a variable, figures out whether
compaction is needed (which takes some time), and only then does it
attempt an offload operation: the time difference between "check" and
"use" is non-trivially small.
To make it even worse, we start the compaction task right after attach
of a tenant, and it is a common pattern by pageserver users to attach a
tenant to then immediately unarchive a timeline, so that an endpoint can
be started.
## Solutions not adopted
The simplest solution is to move the `can_offload` check to right before
attempting of the offload. But this is not a good solution, as no lock
is held between that check and timeline shutdown. So races would still
be possible, just become less likely.
I explored using the timeline state for this, as in adding an additional
enum variant. But `Timeline::set_state` is racy (#10297).
## Adopted solution
We use the lock on the timeline's upload queue as an arbiter: either
unarchival gets to it first and sours the state for auto-offloading, or
auto-offloading shuts it down, which stops any parallel unarchival in
its tracks. The key part is not releasing the upload queue's lock
between the check whether the timeline is archived or not, and shutting
it down (the actual implementation only sets `shutting_down` but it has
the same effect on `initialized_mut()` as a full shutdown). The rest of
the patch is stuff that follows from this.
We also move the part where we set the state to `Stopping` to after that
arbiter has decided the fate of the timeline. For deletions, we do keep
it inside `DeleteTimelineFlow::prepare` however, so that it is called
with all of the the timelines locks held that the function allocates
(timelines lock most importantly). This is only a precautionary measure
however, as I didn't want to analyze deletion related code for possible
races.
## Future changes
It might make sense to move `can_offload` to right before the offload
attempt. Maybe some other properties might have changed as well.
Although this will not be perfect either as no lock is held. I want to
keep it out of this change to emphasize that this move wasn't the main
reason we are race free now.

authorized communication to and from the control plane.

We keep the practice of keeping the compiler up to date, pointing to the
latest release. This is done by many other projects in the Rust
ecosystem as well.
[Release notes](https://releases.rs/docs/1.84.0/).
Prior update was in #9926.
## Problem
In Postgres, one cannot drop a role if it has any dependent objects in
the DB. In `compute_ctl`, we automatically reassign all dependent
objects in every DB to the corresponding DB owner. Yet, it seems that it
doesn't help with some implicit permissions. The issue is reproduced by
installing a `postgis` extension because it creates some views and
tables in the public schema.
## Summary of changes
Added a repro test without using a `postgis`: i) create a role via
`compute_ctl` (with `neon_superuser` grant); ii) create a test role, a
table in schema public, and grant permissions via the role in
`neon_superuser`.
To fix the issue, I added a new `compute_ctl` code that removes such
dangling permissions before dropping the role. It's done in the least
invasive way, i.e., only touches the schema public, because i) that's
the problem we had with PostGIS; ii) it creates a smaller chance of
messing anything up and getting a stuck operation again, just for a
different reason.
Properly, any API-based catalog operations should fail gracefully and
provide an actionable error and status code to the control plane,
allowing the latter to unwind the operation and propagate an error
message and hint to the user. In this sense, it's aligned with another
feature request https://github.com/neondatabase/cloud/issues/21611Resolveneondatabase/cloud#13582
## Problem
Initially we defaulted this to zero to reduce risk. We have now been
using pooling in staging for some time without issues, so let's make it
the default for anyone using this software without setting the config
explicitly.

## Summary of changes
- Explicitly handle ApiError::ShuttingDown as a no-op when mutating node
status
## Problem
If for some reasons we already garbage-collected the data under an LSN
but the caller uses a past LSN for the find_time_cutoff function, now we
will report a missing key error and GC will never proceed.
Note that missing key error can also happen if the key is really missing
(i.e., during the past offload incidents)
## Summary of changes
Make sure GC proceeds by bumping the LSN. When time_cutoff=None, we will
not increase the time_cutoff (it will be set to latest_gc_cutoff). If we
really need to bump the GC LSN for maintenance purpose, we need a
separate API to do that.

## Problem
The filtered record metric doesn't make sense for interpreted ingest.
## Summary of changes
While of dubious utility in the first place, this patch replaces them
with records received and records observed metrics for interpreted
ingest:
* received records cause the pageserver to do _something_: write a key,
value pair to storage, update some metadata or flush pending
modifications
* observed records are a shard 0 concept and contain only key metadata
used in tracking relation sizes (received records include observed
records)

Before dropping the database, drop all the subscriptions in it.
Do not drop slot on publisher, because we have no guarantee that the

Add `DropSubscriptionsForDeletedDatabases` phase to run these operations
in all databases, we're about to delete.
Ignore the error if the database does not exist.
## Problem
Typical deployments of neon have some tenants that stay in use
continuously, and a background churning population of tenants that are
created and then fall idle, and are configured to Detached state.
Currently, this churn of short lived tenants results in an
ever-increasing memory footprint.
Closes: https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/9712
## Summary of changes
- At startup, filter to only load shards that don't have Detached policy
- In process_result, check if a tenant's shards are all Detached and
observed=={}, and if so drop them from memory
- In tenant_location_conf and other tenant mutators, load the tenants'
shards on-demand if they are not present
## Problem
The observed state removal may race with the inline updates of the
observed state done from `Service::node_activate_reconcile`.
This was intended to work as follows:
1. Detaches while the node is unavailable remove the entry from the
observed state.
2. `Service::node_activate_reconcile` diffs the locations returned
by the pageserver with the observed state and detaches in-line
when required.
## Summary of changes
This PR removes step (1) and lets background reconciliations
deal with the mismatch between the intent and observed state.
A follow up will attempt to remove `Service::node_activate_reconcile`
altogether.
Closes https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/10253
## Problem
Consider the pageserver is doing the following sequence of operations:
* upload X files
* update index_part to add X and remove Y
* delete Y files
When storage scrubber obtains the initial timeline snapshot before
"update index_part" (that is the old version that contains Y but not X),
and then obtains the index_part file after it gets updated, it will
report all Y files are missing.
## Summary of changes
Do not report layer file missing if index_part listed and downloaded are
not the same (i.e. different last_modified times)

## Problem
We currently parse Notification twice even in the happy path.

parsing.
## Problem
`promote-images` was split into `promote-images-dev` and
`promote-images-prod` in
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/10267.
`dev` credentials were loaded in `promote-images-dev` and `prod`
credentials were loaded in `promote-images-prod`, but
`promote-images-prod` needs `dev` credentials as well to access the
`dev` images to replicate them from `dev` to `prod`.
## Summary of changes
Load `dev` credentials in `promote-images-prod` as well.
Apparently, we failed to do this bookkeeping in quite a few places...
## Problem

## Summary of changes
Add accounting of dropped requests. Note that this includes prefetches
dropped due to things like "PS connection dropped unexpectedly" or
"prefetch queue is already full", but *not* (yet?) "dropped due to
backend shutdown".
## Problem
`trigger-e2e-tests` waits half an hour before starting to run. Nearly
half of that time can be saved by promoting images before tests on them
are complete, so the e2e tests can run in parallel.
On `main` and `release{,-proxy,-compute}`, `promote-images` updates
`latest` and pushes things to prod ecr, so we want to run
`promote-images` only after `test-images` is done, but on other
branches, there is no harm in promoting images that aren't tested yet.
## Summary of changes
To promote images into dev container registries sooner, `promote-images`
is split into `promote-images-dev` and `promote-images-prod`. The former
pushes to dev container registries, the latter to prod ones. The latter
also waits for `test-images`, while the former doesn't. This allows to
run `trigger-e2e-tests` sooner.
Using `min(0, ...)` causes us to fail to wait in most situations, so a
lack of data would be a hot wait loop, which is bad.

## Problem
Frame pointers are typically disabled by default (depending on CPU
architecture), to improve performance. This frees up a CPU register, and
avoids a couple of instructions per function call. However, it makes
stack unwinding much more inefficient, since it has to use DWARF debug
information instead, and gives worse results with e.g. `perf` and eBPF
profiles. The `backtrace` implementation of `libunwind` is also
suspected to cause seg faults.
The performance benefit of frame pointer omission doesn't appear to
matter that much on modern 64-bit CPU architectures (which have plenty
of registers and optimized instruction execution), and benchmarks did
not show measurable overhead.
The Rust standard library and jemalloc already enable frame pointers by
default.
For more information, see
https://www.brendangregg.com/blog/2024-03-17/the-return-of-the-frame-pointers.html.
Resolves#10224.
Touches #10225.
## Summary of changes
Enable frame pointers in all builds, and use frame pointers for pprof-rs
stack sampling.
## Problem
Before the holidays, and just before our code freeze, a change to cplane
was made that started publishing the topics from #10197. This triggered
our alerts and put us in a sticky situation as it was not an error, and
we didn't want to silence the alert for the entire holidays, and we
didn't want to release proxy 2 days in a row if it was not essential.
We fixed it eventually by rewriting the alert based on logs, but this is
not a good solution.
## Summary of changes
Introduces an intermediate parsing step to check the topic name first,
to allow us to ignore parsing errors for any topics we do not know
about.
## Problem
We are chasing down segfaults in the storage controller
https://github.com/neondatabase/cloud/issues/21010
This is for use by the storage controller, which links dynamically with
`libpq`. We currently use the neon-built libpq, but this may be unsafe
for use from multi-threaded programs like the controller, as it uses a
statically linked openssl
Precursor to https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/10258
## Summary of changes
- Include `postgresql-15` in container builds.
The reason for using version 15 is simply because that is what's
available in Debian 12 without adding any extra repositories, and we
don't have any special need for latest version in our libpq usage.
## Problem
It's not legal to modify layers that are referenced by the current layer
index. Assert this in the upload queue, as preparation for upload queue
reordering.
Touches #10096.
## Summary of changes
Add a debug assertion that the upload queue does not modify layers
referenced by the current index.
I could be convinced that this should be a plain assertion, but will be
conservative for now.
## Problem
Since enabling continuous profiling in staging, we've seen frequent seg
faults. This is suspected to be because jemalloc and pprof-rs take a
stack trace at the same time, and the handlers aren't signal safe.
jemalloc does this probabilistically on every allocation, regardless of
whether someone is taking a heap profile, which means that any CPU
profile has a chance to cause a seg fault.
Touches #10225.
## Summary of changes
For now, just disable heap profiles -- CPU profiles are more important,
and we need to be able to take them without risking a crash.
There is a race condition between `Tenant::shutdown`'s `defuse_for_drop`
loop and `offload_timeline`, where timeline offloading can insert into a
tenant that is in the process of shutting down, in fact so far
progressed that the `defuse_for_drop` has already been called.
This prevents warn log lines of the form:
```
offloaded timeline <hash> was dropped without having cleaned it up at the ancestor
```
The solution piggybacks on the `offloaded_timelines` lock: both the
defuse loop and the offloaded timeline insertion need to acquire the
lock, and we know that the defuse loop only runs after the tenant has
set its `TenantState` to `Stopping`.
So if we hold the `offloaded_timelines` lock, and know that the
`TenantState` is not `Stopping`, then we know that the defuse loop has
not ran yet, and holding the lock ensures that it doesn't start running
while we are inserting the offloaded timeline.
Fixes#10070
## Problem
When we do a timeline CRUD operation, we check that the shards we need
to mutate are currently attached to a pageserver, by reading
`generation` and `generation_pageserver` from the database.
If any don't appear to be attached, we respond with a a 503 and "One or
more shards in tenant is not yet attached".
This is happening more often than expected, and it's not obvious with
current logging what's going on: specifically which shard has a problem,
and exactly what we're seeing in these persistent generation columns.
(Aside: it's possible that we broke something with the change in #10011
which clears generation_pageserver when we detach a shard, although if
so the mechanism isn't trivial: what should happen is that if we stamp
on generation_pageserver if a reconciler is running, then it shouldn't
matter because we're about to
## Summary of changes
- When we are in Attached mode but find that
generation_pageserver/generation are unset, output details while looping
over shards.
## Problem
We see periodic failures in `test_scrubber_physical_gc_ancestors`, where
the logs show that the pageserver is creating image layers that should
cause child shards to no longer reference their parents' layers, but
then the scrubber runs and doesn't find any unreferenced layers.[
https://neon-github-public-dev.s3.amazonaws.com/reports/pr-10256/12582034135/index.html#/testresult/78ea06dea6ba8dd3
From inspecting the code & test, it seems like this could be as simple
as the test failing to wait for uploads before running the scrubber. It
had a 2 second delay built in to satisfy the scrubbers time threshold
checks, which on a lightly loaded machine would also have been easily
enough for uploads to complete, but our test machines are more heavily
loaded all the time.
## Summary of changes
- Wait for uploads to complete after generating images layers in
test_scrubber_physical_gc_ancestors, so that the scrubber should
reliably see the post-compaction metadata.
## Problem
Versions of `diesel` and `pq-sys` were somewhat stale. I was checking on
libpq->openssl versions while investigating a segfault via
https://github.com/neondatabase/cloud/issues/21010. I don't think these
rust bindings are likely to be the source of issues, but we might as
well freshen them as a precaution.
## Summary of changes
- Update diesel to 2.2.6
- Update pq-sys to 0.6.3
There was no value in saving them off to temporary variables.

## Problem
When we manually override the LFC size for particular computes,
autoscaling will typically undo that because vm-monitor will resize LFC
itself.
So, we'd like a way to make vm-monitor not set LFC size — this actually
already exists, if we just don't give vm-monitor a postgres connection
string.
## Summary of changes
Add a new field to the compute spec, `disable_lfc_resizing`. When set to
`true`, we pass in `None` for its postgres connection string. That
matches the configuration tested in `neondatabase/autoscaling` CI.

## Problem
Running clippy with `cargo hack --feature-powerset` in CI isn't
particularly fast. This PR follows-up on
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/8912 to improve the speed of
our clippy runs.
Parallelism as suggested in
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/9901 was tested, but didn't
show consistent enough improvements to be worth it. It actually
increased the amount of work done, as there's less cache hits when
clippy runs are spread out over multiple target directories.
Additionally, parallelism makes it so caching needs to be thought about
more actively and copying around target directories to enable
parallelism eats the rest of the performance gains from parallel
execution.
After some discussion, the decision was to instead cut down on the
number of jobs that are running further. The easiest way to do this is
to not run clippy *without* default features. The list of default
features is empty for all crates, and I haven't found anything using
`cfg(feature = "default")` either, so this is likely not going to change
anything except speeding the runs up.
## Summary of changes
Reduce the amount of feature combinations tried by `cargo hack` (as
suggested in
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/8912#pullrequestreview-2286482368)
by never disabling default features.
## Alternatives
- We can split things out into different jobs which reduces the time
until everything is finished by running more things in parallel. This
does however decreases the amount of cache hits and increases the amount
of time spent on overhead tasks like repo cloning and restoring caches
by doing those multiple times instead of once.
- We could replace `cargo hack [...] clippy` with `cargo clippy [...];
cargo clippy --features testing`. I'm not 100% sure how this compares to
the change here in the PR, but it does seem to run a bit faster. That
likely means it's doing less work, but without understanding what
exactly we loose by that I'd rather not do that for now. I'd appreciate
input on this though.
Now that we construct the TLS client config for cancellation as well as
connect, it feels appropriate to construct the same config once and
re-use it elsewhere. It might also help should #7500 require any extra
setup, so we can easily add it to all the appropriate call sites.
In #10207 it was clear there was some confusion with the current
connection logic. To analyse the flow to make sure there was no poll
stalling, I ended up with the following refactor.
Notable changes:
1. Now all functions called `poll_xyz` and that have a `cx: &mut
Context` argument must return a `Poll<_>` type, and can only return
`Pending` iff an internal poll call also returned `Pending`
2. State management is handled entirely by `poll_messages`. There are
now only 2 states which makes it much easier to keep track of.
Each commit should be self-reviewable and should be simple to verify
that it keeps the same behaviour
## Problem
Currently default value of storage controller heartbeat interval is
100msec. It means that 10 times per second it establish connection to
PS. And it seems to be quite expensive.
At MacOS right now storage_controller consumes 70% CPU and trusts - 30%.
So together they completely utilize one core.
A lot of us has Macs. Let's save environment a little bit and do not
waste electricity and contribute to global warming.
By the way, on prod we have interval 10seconds

## Problem
In https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/9897 we temporarily
disabled the layer valid check because the current one only considers
the end result of all compaction algorithms, but partial gc-compaction

## Summary of changes
Allow LSN splits to overlap in the slow path check. Currently, the valid
check is only used in storage scrubber (background job) and during
gc-compaction (without taking layer lock). Therefore, it's fine for such
checks to be a little bit inefficient but more accurate.

## Problem

I think this is quite unlikely in the field, but worth adressing.

Don't send anything if we haven't decoded a full record. Once this
merges and releases, the `InterpretedWalRecords` struct can be updated
to remove the Option wrapper for `next_record_lsn`.
## Problem
The benchmarking utilities are also useful for testing. We want to write
tests in the safekeeper crate.
## Summary of changes
This commit lifts the utils to the safekeeper crate. They are compiled
if the benchmarking features is enabled or if in test mode.
## Problem
test_timeline_archival_chaos does timeline creation with failure
injection, and thereby sometimes leaves timelines in a part created
state. This was being reported as corruption by the scrubber on test
teardown, because it considered a layer without an index to be an
invalid state. This was incorrect: the scrubber should accept this
state, it occurs legitimately during timeline creation.
Closes: https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/9988
## Summary of changes
- Report a timeline with layers but no index as Relic rather than
MissingIndexPart.
- We retain the MissingIndexPart variant for the case where an index
_was_ found in the listing, but was not found by a subsequent GET, i.e.
racing with deletion.
## Problem
`test_pgdata_import_smoke` writes two gigabytes of pages and then reads
them back serially. This is CPU bottlenecked and results in a long
runtime, and sensitivity to CPU load from other tests on the same
machine.
Closes: https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/10071
## Summary of changes
- Use effective_io_concurrency=32 when doing sequential scans through
2GiB of pages in test_pgdata_import_smoke. This is a ~10x runtime
decrease in the parts of the test that do sequential scans.
- Also set `effective_io_concurrency=2` for tests, as I noticed while
debugging that we were doing all getpage requests serially, which is bad
for checking the stability of the batching code.
## Problem
We want to verify how much / if pgbench throughput and latency on Neon
suffers if the database contains many other relations, too.
## Summary of changes
Modify the benchmarking.yml pgbench-compare job to
- create an addiitional project at scale factor 10 GiB
- before running pgbench add n tables (initially 10k) to the database
- then compare the pgbench throughput and latency to the existing
pgbench-compare at 10 Gib scale factor
We use a realistic template for the n relations that is a partitioned
table with some realistic data types, indexes and constraints - similar
to a table that we use internally.

## Problem
`neon_local` has always been unsafe to run concurrently with itself: it
uses simple text files for persistent state, and concurrent runs will
step on each other.
In some test environments we intentionally handle this with mutexes in
python land, but it's fragile to try and always remember to do that.
## Summary of changes
- Add a `flock` based mutex around the `main` function of neon_local,
using the repo directory as the file to lock
- Clean up an Option<> around control_plane_api, this is a drive-by

## Problem
It is unreliable for the control plane to infer the AZ for computes from
where the tenant is currently attached, because if a tenant happens to
be in a degraded state or a release is ongoing while a compute starts,
then the tenant's attached AZ can be a different one to where it will
run long-term, and the control plane doesn't check back later to restart
the compute.
This can land in parallel with

Jemalloc heap profiles aren't symbolized. This is inconvenient, and

## Summary of changes

This uses about 100 MB additional memory to cache the DWARF information,
but I believe this is already the case with CPU profiles, which use the
same library for symbolization. With cached DWARF information, the
symbolization CPU overhead is negligible.
Example profiles:
*

*

As the title says, I updated the lint rules to no longer allow unwrap or

Three special cases:
* Tests are allowed to use them
* std::sync::Mutex lock().unwrap() is common because it's usually
correct to continue panicking on poison
* `tokio::spawn_blocking(...).await.unwrap()` is common because it will
only error if the blocking fn panics, so continuing the panic is also
correct
I've introduced two extension traits to help with these last two, that
are a bit more explicit so they don't need an expect message every time.
## Problem

* https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/7437
* https://github.com/neondatabase/cloud/pull/13702
But each time it seems it is used by e2e tests
## Summary of changes
The `node_info.allow_self_signed_computes` is always initialised to
false, and then sometimes inherits the proxy config value. There's no
need this needs to be in the node_info, so removing it and propagating
it via `TcpMechansim` is simpler.
## Problem
Changes in #9786 were functionally complete but missed some edges that
made testing less robust than it should have been:
- `is_key_disposable` didn't consider SLRU dir keys disposable
- Timeline `init_empty` was always creating SLRU dir keys on all shards
The result was that when we had a bug
(https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/10080), it wasn't apparent in
tests, because one would only encounter the issue if running on a
long-lived timeline with enough compaction to drop the initially created
empty SLRU dir keys, _and_ some CLog truncation going on.
Closes: https://github.com/neondatabase/cloud/issues/21516
## Summary of changes
- Update is_key_global and init_empty to handle SLRU dir keys properly
-- the only functional impact is that we avoid writing some spurious
keys in shards >0, but this makes testing much more robust.
- Make `test_clog_truncate` explicitly use a sharded tenant
The net result is that if one reverts #10080, then tests fail (i.e. this
PR is a reproducer for the issue)
## Problem
In #8550, we made the flush loop wait for uploads after every layer.
This was to avoid unbounded buildup of uploads, and to reduce compaction
debt. However, the approach has several problems:
* It prevents upload parallelism.
* It prevents flush and upload pipelining.
* It slows down ingestion even when there is no need to backpressure.
* It does not directly backpressure WAL ingestion (only via
`disk_consistent_lsn`), and will build up in-memory layers.
* It does not directly backpressure based on compaction debt and read
amplification.
An alternative solution to these problems is proposed in #8390.
In the meanwhile, we revert the change to reduce the impact on ingest
throughput. This does reintroduce some risk of unbounded
upload/compaction buildup. Until
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/8390, this can be addressed
in other ways:
* Use `max_replication_apply_lag` (aka `remote_consistent_lsn`), which
will more directly limit upload debt.
* Shard the tenant, which will spread the flush/upload work across more
Pageservers and move the bottleneck to Safekeeper.
Touches #10095.

Remove waiting on the upload queue in the flush loop.

(https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/9916), the choice of AZ
becomes a much higher-stakes decision. We will pretty much always run a
tenant in its preferred AZ, and that AZ is fixed for the lifetime of the
tenant (unless a human intervenes)
Eventually, when we do auto-balancing based on utilization, I anticipate
that part of that will be to automatically change the AZ of tenants if
our original scheduling decisions have caused imbalance, but as an
interim measure, we can at least avoid making this scheduling decision
based purely on which AZ contains the emptiest node.
This is a precursor to https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/9947
## Summary of changes
- When creating a tenant, instead of scheduling a shard and then reading
its preferred AZ back, make the AZ decision first.
- Instead of choosing AZ based on which node is emptiest, use the median
utilization of nodes in each AZ to pick the AZ to use. This avoids bad
AZ decisions during periods when some node has very low utilization
(such as after replacing a dead node)
I considered also making the selection a weighted pseudo-random choice
based on utilization, but wanted to avoid destabilising tests with that
for now.
## Problem
Now notifications about failures in `pg_regress` tests run on the
staging cloud instance, reach the channel `on-call-staging-stream`,
while they should reach `on-call-qa-staging-stream`
## Summary of changes
The channel changed.
## Problem
CI currently uses static credentials in some places. These are less
secure and hard to maintain, so we are going to deprecate them and use
OIDC auth.
## Summary of changes
- ci(fix): Use OIDC auth to upload artifact on s3
- ci(fix): Use OIDC auth to login on ECR
## Problem
Now that https://github.com/neondatabase/cloud/issues/15245 is done, we
can remove the old code.
## Summary of changes
Removes support for the ManagementV2 API, in favour of the ProxyV1 API.
## Problem
To give Storage more time on preprod — create a release branch on Friday
## Summary of changes
- Automatically create Storage release PR on Friday instead of Monday
This adds an API to the storage controller to list safekeepers
registered to it.
This PR does a `diesel print-schema > storage_controller/src/schema.rs`
because of an inconsistency between up.sql and schema.rs, introduced by
[this](2c142f14f7)
commit, so there is some updates of `schema.rs` due to that. As a
followup to this, we should maybe think about running `diesel
print-schema` in CI.
Part of #9981
## Problem
`test_check_visibility_map` has been seen to time out in debug tests.
## Summary of changes
Bump the timeout to 10 minutes (test reports indicate 7 minutes is
sufficient).
We don't want to disable the test entirely in debug builds, to exercise
this with debug assertions enabled.
Resolves#10069.
This adds some validation of invariants that we want to uphold wrt the
tenant manifest and `index_part.json`:
* the data the manifest has about a timeline must match with the data in
`index_part.json`. It might actually change, e.g. when we do reparenting
during detach ancestor, but that requires the timeline to be
unoffloaded, i.e. removed from the manifest.
* any timeline mentioned in index part, must, if present, be archived.
If we unarchive, we first update the tenant manifest to unoffload, and
only then update index part. And one needs to archive before offloading.
* it is legal for timelines to be mentioned in the manifest but have no
`index_part`: this is a temporary state visible during deletion of the
timeline. if the pageserver crashed, an attach of the tenant will clean
the state up.
* it is also legal for offloaded timelines to have an
`ancestor_retain_lsn` of None while having an `ancestor_timeline_id`.
This is for the to-be-added flattening functionality: the plan is to set
former to None if we have flattened a timeline.

## Problem
We saw the drain/fill operations not drain fast enough in ap-southeast.
## Summary of changes
These are some quick changes to speed it up:
* double reconcile concurrency - this is now half of the available
reconcile bandwidth
* reduce the waiter polling timeout - this way we can spawn new
reconciliations faster
## Problem
Cplane and storage controller tenant config changes are not additive.
Any change overrides all existing tenant configs. This would be fine if
both did client side patching, but that's not the case.
Once this merges, we must update cplane to use the PATCH endpoint.
## Summary of changes
### High Level
Allow for patching of tenant configuration with a `PATCH
/v1/tenant/config` endpoint.
It takes the same data as it's PUT counterpart. For example the payload
below will update `gc_period` and unset `compaction_period`. All other
fields are left in their original state.
```
{
"tenant_id": "1234",
"gc_period": "10s",
"compaction_period": null
}
```
### Low Level
* PS and storcon gain `PATCH /v1/tenant/config` endpoints. PS endpoint
is only used for cplane managed instances.
* `storcon_cli` is updated to have separate commands for
`set-tenant-config` and `patch-tenant-config`

While on it, also correct related code:
- fix the metric setting: use set() instead of inc() in a loop.
inc() is not idempotent and can lead to incorrect results
if the function called multiple times. Currently it is only called at
compute start, but this will change soon.
- fix the return type of the installed_extensions endpoint
to match the metric. Currently it is only used in the test.
## Problem
Linking walproposer library (e.g. `cargo t`) produces linker errors:
/home/myrrc/neon/pgxn/neon/walproposer_compat.c:169: undefined reference
to `pg_snprintf'
The library with these symbols (libpgcommon.a) is present
## Summary of changes
Changed order of libraries resolution for linker
## Problem
We added support for LFC for tests but are still using it only for the
PG17 release.
## Summary of changes
LFC is enabled for all PG versions. Errors in tests with LFC enabled now
block merging as usual. We keep tests with disabled LFC for PG17
release. Tests on debug builds with LFC enabled still don't affect
permission to merge.
## Problem
If the control plane cannot be reached for some reason, compute_ctl
panics
## Summary of changes
panic is removed in favour of returning an error.
Code is reformatted a bit for more flat control flow
Resolves: #5391
## Problem
We get slru truncation commands on non-zero shards.
Compaction will drop the slru dir keys and ingest will fail when
receiving such records.
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/10080 fixed it for clog, but
not for multixact.
## Summary of changes
Only truncate multixact slrus on shard zero. I audited the rest of the
ingest code and it looks
fine from this pov.
## Problem
With pipelining enabled, the time a request spends in the batcher stage
counts towards the smgr op latency.
If pipelining is disabled, that time is not accounted for.
In practice, this results in a jump in smgr getpage latencies in various
dashboards and degrades the internal SLO.
## Solution
In a similar vein to #10042 and with a similar rationale, this PR stops
counting the time spent in batcher stage towards smgr op latency.
The smgr op latency metric is reduced to the actual execution time.
Time spent in batcher stage is tracked in a separate histogram.
I expect to remove that histogram after batching rollout is complete,
but it will be helpful in the meantime to reason about the rollout.
## Problem
Protobuf doesn't support 128 bit integers, so we encode the keys as two
64 bit integers. Issue is that when we split the 128 bit compact key we
use signed 64 bit integers to represent the two halves. This may result
in a negative lower half when relnode is larger than `0x00800000`. When
we convert the lower half to an i128 we get a negative `CompactKey`.
## Summary of Changes
Use unsigned integers when encoding into Protobuf.
## Deployment
* Prod: We disabled the interpreted proto, so no compat concerns.
* Staging: Disable the interpreted proto, do one release, and then
release the fixed version.
We do this because a negative int32 will convert to a large uint32 value
and could give
a key in the actual pageserver space. In production we would around this
by adding new
fields to the proto and deprecating the old ones, but we can make our
lives easy here.
* Pre-prod: Same as staging
## Problem
When dev deployments are disabled (or fail), the tags for releases
aren't created. It makes more sense to have tag and release creation
before the deployment to prevent situations like
[this](https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/9959).
It is not enough to move the tag creation before the deployment. If the
deployment fails, re-running the job isn't possible because the API call
to create the tag will fail.
## Summary of changes
- Tag/Release creation now happens before the deployment
- The two steps for tag and release have been merged into a bigger one
- There's new checks to ensure the that if the tags/releases already
exist as expected, things will continue just fine.
## Problem
In #9786 we stop storing SLRUs on non-zero shards.
However, there was one code path during ingest that still tries to
enumerate SLRU relations on all shards. This fails if it sees a tenant
who has never seen any write to an SLRU, or who has done such thorough
compaction+GC that it has dropped its SLRU directory key.
## Summary of changes
- Avoid trying to list SLRU relations on nonzero shards
Neon doesn't have seqscan detection of its own, so stop read_stream from
trying to utilize that readahead, and instead make it issue readahead of
its own.
## Problem
@knizhnik noticed that we didn't issue smgrprefetch[v] calls for
seqscans in PG17 due to the move to the read_stream API, which assumes
that the underlying IO facilities do seqscan detection for readahead.
That is a wrong assumption when Neon is involved, so let's remove the
code that applies that assumption.
## Summary of changes
Remove the cases where seqscans are detected and prefetch is disabled as
a consequence, and instead don't do that detection.

In this patch, we decided to keep the current cutoff instead of moving
back the gc_info to avoid races. In the future, we could allow the
planned gc cutoff to go back once cplane sends a retention_history
tenant config update, but this requires a careful revisit of the code.

Azure has a different per-request limit of 256 items for bulk deletion
compared to the number of 1000 on AWS. Therefore, we need to support
multiple values. Due to `GenericRemoteStorage`, we can't add an
associated constant, but it has to be a function.
The PR replaces the `MAX_KEYS_PER_DELETE` constant with a function of
the same name, implemented on both the `RemoteStorage` trait as well as
on `GenericRemoteStorage`.
The value serves as hint of how many objects to pass to the
`delete_objects` function.

Part of #7931
Hello! I was interested in potentially making some contributions to Neon
and looking through the issue backlog I found
[8200](https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/8200) which seemed
like a good first issue to attempt to tackle. I see it was assigned a
while ago so apologies if I'm stepping on any toes with this PR. I also
apologize for the size of this PR. I'm not sure if there is a simple way
to reduce it given the footprint of the components being changed.
## Problem
This PR is attempting to address part of the problem outlined in issue
[8200](https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/8200). Namely to
remove global static usage of timeline state in favour of
`Arc<GlobalTimelines>` and to replace wasteful clones of
`SafeKeeperConf` with `Arc<SafeKeeperConf>`. I did not opt to tackle
`RemoteStorage` in this PR to minimize the amount of changes as this PR
is already quite large. I also did not opt to introduce an
`SafekeeperApp` wrapper struct to similarly minimize changes but I can
tackle either or both of these omissions in this PR if folks would like.
## Summary of changes
- Remove static usage of `GlobalTimelines` in favour of
`Arc<GlobalTimelines>`
- Wrap `SafeKeeperConf` in `Arc` to avoid wasteful clones of the
underlying struct
## Some additional thoughts
- We seem to currently store `SafeKeeperConf` in `GlobalTimelines` and
then expose it through a public`get_global_config` function which
requires locking. This seems needlessly wasteful and based on observed
usage we could remove this public accessor and force consumers to
acquire `SafeKeeperConf` through the new Arc reference.

The legacy gc process calls `get_latest_gc_cutoff`, which uses a Rcu
different than the gc_info struct. In the gc_compaction_smoke test case,
the "latest" cutoff could be lower than the gc_info struct, causing
gc-compaction to collect data that could be accessed by
`latest_gc_cutoff`. Technically speaking, there's nothing wrong with
gc-compaction using gc_info without considering latest_gc_cutoff,
because gc_info is the source of truth. But anyways, let's fix it.
## Summary of changes
* gc-compaction uses `latest_gc_cutoff` instead of gc_info to determine
the gc horizon.
* if a gc-compaction is scheduled via tenant compaction iteration, it
will take the gc_block lock to avoid racing with functionalities like
detach ancestor (if it's triggered via manual compaction API without
scheduling, then it won't take the lock)

## Problem
Currently, we run the `pg_regress` tests only for PG16
However, PG17 is a part of Neon and should be tested as well
## Summary of changes
Modified the workflow and added a patch for PG17 enabling the
`pg_regress` tests.
The problem with leftovers was solved by using branches.
For a while already, we've been unable to update the Azure SDK crates
due to Azure adopting use of a non-tokio async runtime, see #7545.
The effort to upstream the fix got stalled, and I think it's better to
switch to a patched version of the SDK that is up to date.
Now we have a fork of the SDK under the neondatabase github org, to
which I have applied Conrad's rebased patches to:
https://github.com/neondatabase/azure-sdk-for-rust/tree/neon .
The existence of a fork will also help with shipping bulk delete support
before it's upstreamed (#7931).
Also, in related news, the Azure SDK has gotten a rift in development,
where the main branch pertains to a future, to-be-officially-blessed
release of the SDK, and the older versions, which we are currently
using, are on the `legacy` branch. Upstream doesn't really want patches
for the `legacy` branch any more, they want to focus on the `main`
efforts. However, even then, the `legacy` branch is still newer than
what we are having right now, so let's switch to `legacy` for now.
Depending on how long it takes, we can switch to the official version of
the SDK once it's released or switch to the upstream `main` branch if
there is changes we want before that.
As a nice side effect of this PR, we now use reqwest 0.12 everywhere,
dropping the dependency on version 0.11.
Fixes#7545
Result of running:
cargo update -p aws-types -p aws-sigv4 -p aws-credential-types -p
aws-smithy-types -p aws-smithy-async -p aws-sdk-kms -p aws-sdk-iam -p
aws-sdk-s3 -p aws-config
We want to keep the AWS SDK up to date as that way we benefit from new
developments and improvements.
## Problem
We saw a tenant get stuck when it had been put into Pause scheduling
mode to pin it to a pageserver, then it was left idle for a while and
the control plane tried to detach it.
Close: https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/9957
## Summary of changes
- When changing policy to Detached or Secondary, set the scheduling
policy to Active.
- Add a test that exercises this
- When persisting tenant shards, set their `generation_pageserver` to
null if the placement policy is not Attached (this enables consistency
checks to work, and avoids leaving state in the DB that could be
confusing/misleading in future)
## Problem
In #9962 I changed the smgr metrics to include time spent on flush.
It isn't under our (=storage team's) control how long that flush takes
because the client can stop reading requests.

Stop the timer as soon as we've buffered up the response in the
`pgb_writer`.
Track flush time in a separate metric.

If the pageserver connection is lost while receiving the prefetch
request, the prefetch queue is cleared. The error message prints the
values from the prefetch slot, but because the slot was already cleared,
they're all zeros:

## Problem
With the current metrics we can't identify which shards are ingesting
data at any given time.
## Summary of changes
Add a metric for the number of wal records received for processing by
each shard. This is per (tenant, timeline, shard).
## Problem
We didn't have a codeowner for `/compute`, so nobody was auto-assigned
for PRs like #9973
## Summary of changes
While on it:
1. Group codeowners into sections.
2. Remove control plane from the `/compute_tools` because it's primarily
the internal `compute_ctl` code.
3. Add control plane (and compute) to `/libs/compute_api` because that's
the shared public interface of the compute.
We've seen cases where stray keys end up on the wrong shard. This
shouldn't happen. Add debug assertions to prevent this. In release
builds, we should be lenient in order to handle changing key ownership
policies.
Touches #9914.
## Problem
There's no metrics for disk consistent LSN and remote LSN. This stuff is
useful when looking at ingest performance.
## Summary of changes
Two per timeline metrics are added: `pageserver_disk_consistent_lsn` and
`pageserver_projected_remote_consistent_lsn`. I went for the projected
remote lsn instead of the visible one
because that more closely matches remote storage write tput. Ideally we
would have both, but these metrics are expensive.
## Problem
I'm writing an ingest benchmark in #9812. To time S3 uploads, I need to
schedule a flush of the Pageserver's in-memory layer, but don't actually
want to wait around for it to complete (which will take a minute).
## Summary of changes
Add a parameter `wait_until_flush` (default `true`) for
`timeline/checkpoint` to control whether to wait for the flush to
complete.
## Problem
FSM pages are managed like regular relation pages, and owned by a single
shard. However, when truncating the FSM relation the last FSM page was
zeroed out on all shards. This is unnecessary and potentially confusing.
The superfluous keys will be removed during compactions, as they do not
belong on these shards.
Resolves#10027.
## Summary of changes
Only zero out the truncated FSM page on the owning shard.
## Problem
part of https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/9114
gc-compaction can take a long time. This patch adds support for
scheduling a gc-compaction job. The compaction loop will first handle
L0->L1 compaction, and then gc compaction. The scheduled jobs are stored
in a non-persistent queue within the tenant structure.
This will be the building block for the partial compaction trigger -- if
the system determines that we need to do a gc compaction, it will
partition the keyspace and schedule several jobs. Each of these jobs
will run for a short amount of time (i.e, 1 min). L0 compaction will be
prioritized over gc compaction.
## Summary of changes
* Add compaction scheduler in tenant.
* Run scheduled compaction in integration tests.
* Change the manual compaction API to allow schedule a compaction
instead of immediately doing it.
* Add LSN upper bound as gc-compaction parameter. If we schedule partial
compactions, gc_cutoff might move across different runs. Therefore, we
need to pass a pre-determined gc_cutoff beforehand. (TODO: support LSN
lower bound so that we can compact arbitrary "rectangle" in the layer
map)
* Refactor the gc_compaction internal interface.

## Problem
We need a higher concurrency during reconfiguration in case of many DBs,
but the instance is already running and used by the client. We can
easily get out of `max_connections` limit, and the current code won't
handle that.
## Summary of changes
Default to 1, but also allow control plane to override this value for
specific projects. It's also recommended to bump
`superuser_reserved_connections` += `reconfigure_concurrency` for such
projects to ensure that we always have enough spare connections for
reconfiguration process to succeed.
Quick workaround for neondatabase/cloud#17846
## Problem
The node shard scan timeout of 1 second is a bit too aggressive, and
we've seen this cause test failures. The scans are performed in parallel
across nodes, and the entire operation has a 15 second timeout.
Resolves#9801.
## Summary of changes
Increase the timeout to 5 seconds. This is still enough to time out on a
network failure and retry successfully within 15 seconds.
Like #9931 but without rebasing upstream just yet, to try and minimise
the differences.
Removes all proxy-specific commits from the rust-postgres fork, now that
proxy no longer depends on them. Merging upstream changes to come later.
Closes#9387.
## Problem
`BufferedWriter` cannot proceed while the owned buffer is flushing to
disk. We want to implement double buffering so that the flush can happen
in the background. See #9387.
## Summary of changes
- Maintain two owned buffers in `BufferedWriter`.
- The writer is in charge of copying the data into owned, aligned
buffer, once full, submit it to the flush task.
- The flush background task is in charge of flushing the owned buffer to
disk, and returned the buffer to the writer for reuse.
- The writer and the flush background task communicate through a
bi-directional channel.
For in-memory layer, we also need to be able to read from the buffered
writer in `get_values_reconstruct_data`. To handle this case, we did the
following
- Use replace `VirtualFile::write_all` with `VirtualFile::write_all_at`,
and use `Arc` to share it between writer and background task.
- leverage `IoBufferMut::freeze` to get a cheaply clonable `IoBuffer`,
one clone will be submitted to the channel, the other clone will be
saved within the writer to serve reads. When we want to reuse the
buffer, we can invoke `IoBuffer::into_mut`, which gives us back the
mutable aligned buffer.
- InMemoryLayer reads is now aware of the maybe_flushed part of the
buffer.
**Caveat**
- We removed the owned version of write, because this interface does not
work well with buffer alignment. The result is that without direct IO
enabled,
[`download_object`](a439d57050/pageserver/src/tenant/remote_timeline_client/download.rs (L243))
does one more memcpy than before this PR due to the switch to use
`_borrowed` version of the write.
- "Bypass aligned part of write" could be implemented later to avoid
large amount of memcpy.
**Testing**
- use an oneshot channel based control mechanism to make flush behavior
deterministic in test.
- test reading from `EphemeralFile` when the last submitted buffer is
not flushed, in-progress, and done flushing to disk.
## Performance
We see performance improvement for small values, and regression on big
values, likely due to being CPU bound + disk write latency.

Include the source error for `reqwest::Error` wherever it's displayed.
## Problem
When client specifies `application_name`, pgbouncer propagates it to the
Postgres. Yet, if client doesn't do it, we have hard time figuring out
who opens a lot of Postgres connections (including the `cloud_admin`
ones).
See this investigation as an example:
https://neondb.slack.com/archives/C0836R0RZ0D
## Summary of changes
I haven't found this documented, but it looks like pgbouncer accepts
standard Postgres connstring parameters in the connstring in the
`[databases]` section, so put the default `application_name=pgbouncer`
there. That way, we will always see who opens Postgres connections. I
did tests, and if client specifies a `application_name`, pgbouncer
overrides this default, so it only works if it's not specified or set to
blank `&application_name=` in the connection string.
This is the last place we could potentially open some Postgres
connections without `application_name`. Everything else should be either
of two:
1. Direct client connections without `application_name`, but these
should be strictly non-`cloud_admin` ones
2. Some ad-hoc internal connections, so if we see spikes of unidentified
`cloud_admin` connections, we will need to investigate it again.

## Summary of changes
- `test_page_service_batching`: save non-numeric params as `labels`
- Add a runtime check that `metric_value` is NUMERIC
Before this PR, some override callbacks used `.default()`, others
used `.setdefault()`.
As of this PR, all callbacks use `.setdefault()` which I think is least
prone to failure.
Aligning on a single way will set the right example for future tests
that need such customization.
The `test_pageserver_getpage_throttle.py` technically is a change in
behavior: before, it replaced the `tenant_config` field, now it just
configures the throttle. This is what I believe is intended anyway.
Support tenant manifests in the storage scrubber:
* list the manifests, order them by generation
* delete all manifests except for the two most recent generations
* for the latest manifest: try parsing it.
I've tested this patch by running the against a staging bucket and it
successfully deleted stuff (and avoided deleting the latest two
generations).
In follow-up work, we might want to also check some invariants of the
manifest, as mentioned in #8088.

## Problem
The Pageserver signal handler would only respond to a single signal and
initiate shutdown. Subsequent signals were ignored. This meant that a
`SIGQUIT` sent after a `SIGTERM` had no effect (e.g. in the case of a
slow or stalled shutdown). The `test_runner` uses this to force shutdown
if graceful shutdown is slow.
Touches #9740.
## Summary of changes
Keep responding to signals after the initial shutdown signal has been
received.
Arguably, the `test_runner` should also use `SIGKILL` rather than
`SIGQUIT` in this case, but it seems reasonable to respond to `SIGQUIT`
regardless.
Keeping the `mock` postgres cplane adaptor using "stock" tokio-postgres
allows us to remove a lot of dead weight from our actual postgres
connection logic.
## Problem
We saw a peculiar case where a pageserver apparently got a 0-tenant
response to `/re-attach` but we couldn't see the request landing on a
storage controller. It was hard to confirm retrospectively that the
pageserver was configured properly at the moment it sent the request.
## Summary of changes
- Log the URL to which we are sending the request
- Log the NodeId and metadata that we sent
## Problem
Sharded tenants should be run in a single AZ for best performance, so
that computes have AZ-local latency to all the shards.
Part of https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/8264
## Summary of changes
- When we split a tenant, instead of updating each shard's preferred AZ
to wherever it is scheduled, propagate the preferred AZ from the parent.
- Drop the check in `test_shard_preferred_azs` that asserts shards end
up in their preferred AZ: this will not be true again until the
optimize_attachment logic is updated to make this so. The existing check
wasn't testing anything about scheduling, it was just asserting that we
set preferred AZ in a way that matches the way things happen to be
scheduled at time of split.
## Problem
In the batching PR
- https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/9870
I stopped deducting the time-spent-in-throttle fro latency metrics,
i.e.,
- smgr latency metrics (`SmgrOpTimer`)
- basebackup latency (+scan latency, which I think is part of
basebackup).
The reason for stopping the deduction was that with the introduction of
batching, the trick with tracking time-spent-in-throttle inside
RequestContext and swap-replacing it from the `impl Drop for
SmgrOpTimer` no longer worked with >1 requests in a batch.
However, deducting time-spent-in-throttle is desirable because our
internal latency SLO definition does not account for throttling.
## Summary of changes
- Redefine throttling to be a page_service pagestream request throttle
instead of a throttle for repository `Key` reads through `Timeline::get`
/ `Timeline::get_vectored`.
- This means reads done by `basebackup` are no longer subject to any
throttle.
- The throttle applies after batching, before handling of the request.
- Drive-by fix: make throttle sensitive to cancellation.
- Rename metric label `kind` from `timeline_get` to `pagestream` to
reflect the new scope of throttling.
To avoid config format breakage, we leave the config field named
`timeline_get_throttle` and ignore the `task_kinds` field.
This will be cleaned up in a future PR.
## Trade-Offs
Ideally, we would apply the throttle before reading a request off the
connection, so that we queue the minimal amount of work inside the
process.
However, that's not possible because we need to do shard routing.
The redefinition of the throttle to limit pagestream request rate
instead of repository `Key` rate comes with several downsides:
- We're no longer able to use the throttle mechanism for other other
tasks, e.g. image layer creation.
However, in practice, we never used that capability anyways.
- We no longer throttle basebackup.
## Problem
`test_sharded_ingest` ingests a lot of data, which can cause shutdown to
be slow e.g. due to local "S3 uploads" or compactions. This can cause
test flakes during teardown.
Resolves#9740.
## Summary of changes
Perform an immediate shutdown of the cluster.
## Problem
We don't have good observability for memory usage. This would be useful
e.g. to debug OOM incidents or optimize performance or resource usage.
We would also like to use continuous profiling with e.g. [Grafana Cloud
Profiles](https://grafana.com/products/cloud/profiles-for-continuous-profiling/)
(see https://github.com/neondatabase/cloud/issues/14888).
This PR is intended as a proof of concept, to try it out in staging and
drive further discussions about profiling more broadly.

## Summary of changes
Adds a HTTP route `/profile/heap` that takes a heap profile and returns
it. Query parameters:
* `format`: output format (`jemalloc` or `pprof`; default `pprof`).
Unlike CPU profiles (see #9764), heap profiles are not symbolized and
require the original binary to translate addresses to function names. To
make this work with Grafana, we'll probably have to symbolize the
process server-side -- this is left as future work, as is other output
formats like SVG.
Heap profiles don't work on macOS due to limitations in jemalloc.

This PR
- fixes smgr metrics https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/9925
- adds an additional startup log line logging the current batching
config
- adds a histogram of batch sizes global and per-tenant
- adds a metric exposing the current batching config
The issue described #9925 is that before this PR, request latency was
only observed *after* batching.
This means that smgr latency metrics (most importantly getpage latency)
don't account for
- `wait_lsn` time
- time spent waiting for batch to fill up / the executor stage to pick
up the batch.
The fix is to use a per-request batching timer, like we did before the
initial batching PR.
We funnel those timers through the entire request lifecycle.
I noticed that even before the initial batching changes, we weren't
accounting for the time spent writing & flushing the response to the
wire.
This PR drive-by fixes that deficiency by dropping the timers at the
very end of processing the batch, i.e., after the `pgb.flush()` call.
I was **unable to maintain the behavior that we deduct
time-spent-in-throttle from various latency metrics.
The reason is that we're using a *single* counter in `RequestContext` to
track micros spent in throttle.
But there are *N* metrics timers in the batch, one per request.
As a consequence, the practice of consuming the counter in the drop
handler of each timer no longer works because all but the first timer
will encounter error `close() called on closed state`.
A failed attempt to maintain the current behavior can be found in
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/9951.
So, this PR remvoes the deduction behavior from all metrics.
I started a discussion on Slack about it the implications this has for
our internal SLO calculation:

Before this PR, the storcon_cli didn't have a way to show the
tenant-wide information of the TenantDescribeResponse.
Sadly, the `Serialize` impl for the tenant config doesn't skip on
`None`, so, the output becomes a bit bloated.
Maybe we can use `skip_serializing_if(Option::is_none)` in the future.

## Problem
I was touching `test_storage_controller_node_deletion` because for AZ
scheduling work I was adding a change to the storage controller (kick
secondaries during optimisation) that made a FIXME in this test defunct.
While looking at it I also realized that we can easily fix the way node
deletion currently doesn't use a proper ScheduleContext, using the
iterator type recently added for that purpose.
## Summary of changes
- A testing-only behavior in storage controller where if a secondary
location isn't yet ready during optimisation, it will be actively
polled.
- Remove workaround in `test_storage_controller_node_deletion` that
previously was needed because optimisation would get stuck on cold
secondaries.
- Update node deletion code to use a `TenantShardContextIterator` and
thereby a proper ScheduleContext
## Problem
After enabling LFC in tests and lowering `shared_buffers` we started
having more problems with `test_pg_regress`.
## Summary of changes
Set `shared_buffers` to 1MB to both exercise getPage requests/LFC, and
still have enough room for Postgres to operate. Everything smaller might
be not enough for Postgres under load, and can cause errors like 'no
unpinned buffers available'.
See Konstantin's comment [1] as well.

which caused us to not write out the neon.extension_server_port line.
Thus, Postgres thought we were setting the port to the default value of

following log messages:

This refactors `connect_raw` in order to return direct access to the
delayed notices.
I cannot find a way to test this with psycopg2 unfortunately, although
testing it with psql does return the expected results.
## Problem
We can't easily tell how far the state of shards is from their AZ
preferences. This can be a cause of performance issues, so it's
important for diagnosability that we can tell easily if there are
significant numbers of shards that aren't running in their preferred AZ.
Related: https://github.com/neondatabase/cloud/issues/15413
## Summary of changes
- In reconcile_all, count shards that are scheduled into the wrong AZ
(if they have a preference), and publish it as a prometheus gauge.
- Also calculate a statistic for how many shards wanted to reconcile but
couldn't.
This is clearly a lazy calculation: reconcile all only runs
periodically. But that's okay: shards in the wrong AZ is something that
only matters if it stays that way for some period of time.
Improves `wait_until` by:
* Use `timeout` instead of `iterations`. This allows changing the
timeout/interval parameters independently.
* Make `timeout` and `interval` optional (default 20s and 0.5s). Most
callers don't care.
* Only output status every 1s by default, and add optional
`status_interval` parameter.
* Remove `show_intermediate_error`, this was always emitted anyway.
Most callers have been updated to use the defaults, except where they
had good reason otherwise.
## Problem
We saw unexpected container terminations when running in k8s with with
small CPU resource requests.
The /status and /ready handlers called `maybe_forward`, which always
takes the lock on Service::inner.
If there is a lot of writer lock contention, and the container is
starved of CPU, this increases the likelihood that we will get killed by
the kubelet.
It isn't certain that this was a cause of issues, but it is a potential
source that we can eliminate.
## Summary of changes
- Revise logic to return immediately if the URL is in the non-forwarded
list, rather than calling maybe_forward

# Problem
The timeout-based batching adds latency to unbatchable workloads.
We can choose a short batching timeout (e.g. 10us) but that requires
high-resolution timers, which tokio doesn't have.
I thoroughly explored options to use OS timers (see
[this](https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/9822) abandoned PR).
In short, it's not an attractive option because any timer implementation
adds non-trivial overheads.
# Solution
The insight is that, in the steady state of a batchable workload, the
time we spend in `get_vectored` will be hundreds of microseconds anyway.
If we prepare the next batch concurrently to `get_vectored`, we will
have a sizeable batch ready once `get_vectored` of the current batch is
done and do not need an explicit timeout.
This can be reasonably described as **pipelining of the protocol
handler**.
# Implementation
We model the sub-protocol handler for pagestream requests
(`handle_pagrequests`) as two futures that form a pipeline:
2. Batching: read requests from the connection and fill the current
batch
3. Execution: `take` the current batch, execute it using `get_vectored`,
and send the response.
The Reading and Batching stage are connected through a new type of
channel called `spsc_fold`.
See the long comment in the `handle_pagerequests_pipelined` for details.
# Changes
- Refactor `handle_pagerequests`
- separate functions for
- reading one protocol message; produces a `BatchedFeMessage` with just
one page request in it
- batching; tried to merge an incoming `BatchedFeMessage` into an
existing `BatchedFeMessage`; returns `None` on success and returns back
the incoming message in case merging isn't possible
- execution of a batched message
- unify the timeline handle acquisition & request span construction; it
now happen in the function that reads the protocol message
- Implement serial and pipelined model
- serial: what we had before any of the batching changes
- read one protocol message
- execute protocol messages
- pipelined: the design described above
- optionality for execution of the pipeline: either via concurrent
futures vs tokio tasks
- Pageserver config
- remove batching timeout field
- add ability to configure pipelining mode
- add ability to limit max batch size for pipelined configurations
(required for the rollout, cf
https://github.com/neondatabase/cloud/issues/20620 )
- ability to configure execution mode
- Tests
- remove `batch_timeout` parametrization
- rename `test_getpage_merge_smoke` to `test_throughput`
- add parametrization to test different max batch sizes and execution
moes
- rename `test_timer_precision` to `test_latency`
- rename the test case file to `test_page_service_batching.py`
- better descriptions of what the tests actually do
## On the holding The `TimelineHandle` in the pending batch
While batching, we hold the `TimelineHandle` in the pending batch.
Therefore, the timeline will not finish shutting down while we're
batching.
This is not a problem in practice because the concurrently ongoing
`get_vectored` call will fail quickly with an error indicating that the
timeline is shutting down.
This results in the Execution stage returning a `QueryError::Shutdown`,
which causes the pipeline / entire page service connection to shut down.
This drops all references to the
`Arc<Mutex<Option<Box<BatchedFeMessage>>>>` object, thereby dropping the
contained `TimelineHandle`s.
- => fixes https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/9850
# Performance
Local run of the benchmarks, results in [this empty
commit](1cf5b1463f)
in the PR branch.
Key take-aways:
* `concurrent-futures` and `tasks` deliver identical `batching_factor`
* tail latency impact unknown, cf
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/9837
* `concurrent-futures` has higher throughput than `tasks` in all
workloads (=lower `time` metric)
* In unbatchable workloads, `concurrent-futures` has 5% higher
`CPU-per-throughput` than that of `tasks`, and 15% higher than that of
`serial`.
* In batchable-32 workload, `concurrent-futures` has 8% lower
`CPU-per-throughput` than that of `tasks` (comparison to tput of
`serial` is irrelevant)
* in unbatchable workloads, mean and tail latencies of
`concurrent-futures` is practically identical to `serial`, whereas
`tasks` adds 20-30us of overhead
Overall, `concurrent-futures` seems like a slightly more attractive
choice.

## Problem
It appears that the Azure storage API tends to hang TCP connections more
than S3 does.
Currently we use a 2 minute timeout for all downloads. This is large
because sometimes the objects we download are large. However, waiting 2
minutes when doing something like downloading a manifest on tenant
attach is problematic, because when someone is doing a "create tenant,
create timeline" workflow, that 2 minutes is long enough for them
reasonably to give up creating that timeline.
Rather than propagate oversized timeouts further up the stack, we should
use a different timeout for objects that we expect to be small.
Closes: https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/9836
## Summary of changes
- Add a `small_timeout` configuration attribute to remote storage,
defaulting to 30 seconds (still a very generous period to do something
like download an index)
- Add a DownloadKind parameter to DownloadOpts, so that callers can
indicate whether they expect the object to be small or large.
- In the azure client, use small timeout for HEAD requests, and for GET
requests if DownloadKind::Small is used.
- Use DownloadKind::Small for manifests, indices, and heatmap downloads.
This PR intentionally does not make the equivalent change to the S3
client, to reduce blast radius in case this has unexpected consequences
(we could accomplish the same thing by editing lots of configs, but just
skipping the code is simpler for right now)
## Problem
It was not always possible to judge what exactly some `cloud_admin`

2. Always set `application_name` and make naming consistent

## Problem
To add Safekeeper heap profiling in #9778, we need to switch to an
allocator that supports it. Pageserver and proxy already use jemalloc.
Touches #9534.
## Summary of changes
Use jemalloc in Safekeeper.
## Problem
When picking locations for a shard, we should use a ScheduleContext that
includes all the other shards in the tenant, so that we apply proper
anti-affinity between shards. If we don't do this, then it can lead to
unstable scheduling, where we place a shard somewhere that the optimizer
will then immediately move it away from.
We didn't always do this, because it was a bit awkward to accumulate the
context for a tenant rather than just walking tenants.
This was a TODO in `handle_node_availability_transition`:
```
// TODO: populate a ScheduleContext including all shards in the same tenant_id (only matters
// for tenants without secondary locations: if they have a secondary location, then this
// schedule() call is just promoting an existing secondary)
```
This is a precursor to https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/8264,
where the current imperfect scheduling during node evacuation hampers
testing.
## Summary of changes
- Add an iterator type that yields each shard along with a
schedulecontext that includes all the other shards from the same tenant
- Use the iterator to replace hand-crafted logic in optimize_all_plan
(functionally identical)
- Use the iterator in `handle_node_availability_transition` to apply
proper anti-affinity during node evacuation.
Our rust-postgres fork is getting messy. Mostly because proxy wants more
control over the raw protocol than tokio-postgres provides. As such,
it's diverging more and more. Storage and compute also make use of
rust-postgres, but in more normal usage, thus they don't need our crazy
changes.
Idea:
* proxy maintains their subset
* other teams use a minimal patch set against upstream rust-postgres
Reviewing this code will be difficult. To implement it, I
1. Copied tokio-postgres, postgres-protocol and postgres-types from
00940fcdb5
2. Updated their package names with the `2` suffix to make them compile
in the workspace.
3. Updated proxy to use those packages
4. Copied in the code from tokio-postgres-rustls 0.13 (with some patches
applied https://github.com/jbg/tokio-postgres-rustls/pull/32https://github.com/jbg/tokio-postgres-rustls/pull/33)
5. Removed as much dead code as I could find in the vendored libraries
6. Updated the tokio-postgres-rustls code to use our existing channel
binding implementation
Adds a benchmark for logical message WAL ingestion throughput
end-to-end. Logical messages are essentially noops, and thus ignored by
the Pageserver.

## Problem
We used `set_path()` to replace the database name in the connection
string. It automatically does url-safe encoding if the path is not
already encoded, but it does it as per the URL standard, which assumes
that tabs can be safely removed from the path without changing the
meaning of the URL. See, e.g.,
https://url.spec.whatwg.org/#concept-basic-url-parser. It also breaks
for DBs with properly %-encoded names, like with `%20`, as they are kept
intact, but actually should be escaped.
Yet, this is not true for Postgres, where it's completely valid to have
trailing tabs in the database name.
I think this is the PR that caused this regression
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/9717, as it switched from
`postgres::config::Config` back to `set_path()`.
This was fixed a while ago already [1], btw, I just haven't added a test
to catch this regression back then :(
## Summary of changes
This commit changes the code back to use
`postgres/tokio_postgres::Config` everywhere.
While on it, also do some changes around, as I had to touch this code:
1. Bump some logging from `debug` to `info` in the spec apply path. We
do not use `debug` in prod, and it was tricky to understand what was
going on with this bug in prod.
2. Refactor configuration concurrency calculation code so it was
reusable. Yet, still keep `1` in the case of reconfiguration. The
database can be actively used at this moment, so we cannot guarantee
that there will be enough spare connection slots, and the underlying
code won't handle connection errors properly.
3. Simplify the installed extensions code. It was spawning a blocking
task inside async function, which doesn't make much sense. Instead, just
have a main sync function and call it with `spawn_blocking` in the API
code -- the only place we need it to be async.
4. Add regression python test to cover this and related problems in the
future. Also, add more extensive testing of schema dump and DBs and
roles listing API.

## Problem
Currently, we rerun only known flaky tests. This approach was chosen to
reduce the number of tests that go unnoticed (by forcing people to take
a look at failed tests and rerun the job manually), but it has some
drawbacks:
- In PRs, people tend to push new changes without checking failed tests
(that's ok)
- In the main, tests are just restarted without checking
(understandable)
- Parametrised tests become flaky one by one, i.e. if `test[1]` is flaky
`, test[2]` is not marked as flaky automatically (which may or may not
be the case).
I suggest rerunning all failed tests to increase the stability of GitHub
jobs and using the Grafana Dashboard with flaky tests for deeper
analysis.
## Summary of changes
- Rerun all failed tests twice at max
## Problem
For the interpreted proto the pageserver is not returning the correct
LSN
in replies to keep alive requests. This is because the interpreted
protocol arm
was not updating `last_rec_lsn`.
## Summary of changes
* Return correct LSN in keep-alive responses
* Fix shard field in wal sender traces
We keep the practice of keeping the compiler up to date, pointing to the
latest release. This is done by many other projects in the Rust
ecosystem as well.
[Release notes](https://releases.rs/docs/1.83.0/).
Also update `cargo-hakari`, `cargo-deny`, `cargo-hack` and
`cargo-nextest` to their latest versions.
Prior update was in #9445.
## Problem
We currently see elevated levels of errors for GetBlob requests. This is
because 404 and 304 are counted as errors for metric reporting.
## Summary of Changes
Bring the implementation in line with the S3 client and treat 404 and
304 responses as ok for metric purposes.

## Problem
For cancellation, a connection is open during all the cancel checks.
## Summary of changes
Spawn cancellation checks in the background, and close connection
immediately.
Use task_tracker for cancellation checks.
# Problem
VM (visibility map) pages are stored and managed as any regular relation
page, in the VM fork of the main relation. They are also sharded like
other pages. Regular WAL writes to the VM pages (typically performed by
vacuum) are routed to the correct shard as usual. However, VM pages are
also updated via `ClearVmBits` metadata records emitted when main
relation pages are updated. These metadata records were sent to all
shards, like other metadata records. This had the following effects:
* On shards responsible for VM pages, the `ClearVmBits` applies as
expected.
* On shard 0, which knows about the VM relation and its size but doesn't
necessarily have any VM pages, the `ClearVmBits` writes may have been
applied without also having applied the explicit WAL writes to VM pages.
* If VM pages are spread across multiple shards (unlikely with 256MB
stripe size), all shards may have applied `ClearVmBits` if the pages
fall within their local view of the relation size, even for pages they
do not own.
* On other shards, this caused a relation size cache miss and a DbDir
and RelDir lookup before dropping the `ClearVmBits`. With many
relations, this could cause significant CPU overhead.
This is not believed to be a correctness problem, but this will be
verified in #9914.
Resolves#9855.
# Changes
Route `ClearVmBits` metadata records only to the shards responsible for
the VM pages.
Verification of the current VM handling and cleanup of incomplete VM
pages on shard 0 (and potentially elsewhere) is left as follow-up work.
## Problem

## Summary of changes
Ensure that the deletion queue gets fully flushed (i.e., the deletion
lists get applied) during a graceful shutdown.
It is still possible that an incomplete shutdown would leave deletion
list behind and cause race upon the next startup, but we assume this
will unlikely happen, and even if it happened, the pageserver should
already be at a tainted state and the tenant should be moved to a new
tenant with a new generation number.

* Promote two logs from mpsc send errors to error level. The channels
are unbounded and there shouldn't be errors.
* Fix one multiline log from anyhow::Error. Use Debug instead of
Display.
## Problem
When ingesting implicit `ClearVmBits` operations, we silently drop the
writes if the relation or page is unknown. There are implicit
assumptions around VM pages wrt. explicit/implicit updates, sharding,
and relation sizes, which can possibly drop writes incorrectly. Adding a
few metrics will allow us to investigate further and tighten up the
logic.
Touches #9855.
## Summary of changes
Add a `pageserver_wal_ingest_clear_vm_bits_unknown` metric to record
dropped `ClearVmBits` writes.
Also add comments clarifying the behavior of relation sizes on non-zero
shards.
Valid layer assumption is a necessary condition for a layer map to be
valid. It's a stronger check imposed by gc-compaction than the actual
valid layermap definition. Actually, the system can work as long as
there are no overlapping layer maps. Therefore, we degrade that into a
warning.

## Problem
We don't have any observability for the relation size cache. We have
seen cache misses cause significant performance impact with high
relation counts.
Touches #9855.
## Summary of changes
Adds the following metrics:
* `pageserver_relsize_cache_entries`
* `pageserver_relsize_cache_hits`
* `pageserver_relsize_cache_misses`
* `pageserver_relsize_cache_misses_old`
## 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
The `pre-merge-checks` workflow relies on the build-tools image.
If changes to the `build-tools` image have been merged into the main
branch since the last CI run for a PR (with other changes to the
`build-tools`), the image will be rebuilt during the merge queue run.
Otherwise, cached images are used.
Rebuilding the image adds approximately 10 minutes on x86-64 and 20
minutes on arm64 to the process.
## Summary of changes
- parametrise `build-build-tools-image` job with arch and Debian version
- Run `pre-merge-checks` only on Debian 12 x86-64 image
## Problem
ingest benchmark tests project migration to Neon involving steps
- COPY relation data
- create indexes
- create constraints
Previously we used only 4 copy jobs, 4 create index jobs and 7
maintenance workers. After increasing effective_io_concurrency on
compute we see that we can sustain more parallelism in the ingest bench
## Summary of changes
Increase copy jobs to 8, create index jobs to 8 and maintenance workers
to 16
## Problem
The RequestContext::span shouldn't live for the entire postgres
connection, only the handshake.
## Summary of changes
* Slight refactor to the RequestContext to discard the span upon
handshake completion.
* Make sure the temporary future for the handshake is dropped (not bound
to a variable)
* Runs our nightly fmt script
Before, we hardcoded the pg_version to 140000, while the code expected
version numbers like 14. Now we use an enum, and code from
`extension_server.rs` to auto-detect the correct version. The enum helps
when we add support for a version: enums ensure that compilation fails
if one forgets to put the version to one of the `match` locations.

## Problem
Any errors from these async blocks are unconditionally logged at error
level
even though we already handle such errors based on context.
## Summary of changes
* Log raw errors from creating and executing cplane requests at debug
level.
* Inline macro calls to retain the correct callsite.
## Problem
The vast majority of the error/warn logs from cplane are about time or
data transfer quotas exceeded or endpoint-not-found errors and not
operational errors in proxy or cplane.
## Summary of changes
* Demote cplane error replies to info level.
* Raise other errors from warn back to error.
## Problem
For any given tenant shard, pageservers receive all of the tenant's WAL
from the safekeeper.
This soft-blocks us from using larger shard counts due to bandwidth
concerns and CPU overhead of filtering
out the records.
## Summary of changes
This PR lifts the decoding and interpretation of WAL from the pageserver
into the safekeeper.
A customised PG replication protocol is used where instead of sending
raw WAL, the safekeeper sends
filtered, interpreted records. The receiver drives the protocol
selection, so, on the pageserver side, usage
of the new protocol is gated by a new pageserver config:
`wal_receiver_protocol`.
More granularly the changes are:
1. Optionally inject the protocol and shard identity into the arguments
used for starting replication
2. On the safekeeper side, implement a new wal sending primitive which
decodes and interprets records
before sending them over
3. On the pageserver side, implement the ingestion of this new
replication message type. It's very similar
to what we already have for raw wal (minus decoding and interpreting).
## Notes
* This PR currently uses my [branch of
rust-postgres](https://github.com/neondatabase/rust-postgres/tree/vlad/interpreted-wal-record-replication-support)
which includes the deserialization logic for the new replication message
type. PR for that is open
[here](https://github.com/neondatabase/rust-postgres/pull/32).
* This PR contains changes for both pageservers and safekeepers. It's
safe to merge because the new protocol is disabled by default on the
pageserver side. We can gradually start enabling it in subsequent
releases.
* CI tests are running on https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/9747

## 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.

to keep it consistent with existing compute metrics.
flux-fleet change is not needed, because it doesn't have any filter by
metric name for compute metrics.
## 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
The HTTP router allowlists matched both on the path and the query
string. This meant that only `/profile/cpu` would be allowed without
auth, while `/profile/cpu?format=svg` would require auth.
Follows #9764.
## Summary of changes
* Match allowlists on URI path, rather than the entire URI.
* Fix the allowlist for Safekeeper to use `/profile/cpu` rather than the
old `/pprof/profile`.
* Just use a constant slice for the allowlist; it's only a handful of
items, and these handlers are not on hot paths.
## Problem
close https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/9836
Looking at Azure SDK, the only related issue I can find is
https://github.com/azure/azure-sdk-for-rust/issues/1549. Azure uses
reqwest as the backend, so I assume there's some underlying magic
unknown to us that might have caused the stuck in #9836.
The observation is:
* We didn't get an explicit out of resource HTTP error from Azure.
* The connection simply gets stuck and times out.
* But when we retry after we reach the timeout, it succeeds.
This issue is hard to identify -- maybe something went wrong at the ABS
side, or something wrong with our side. But we know that a retry will
usually succeed if we give up the stuck connection.
Therefore, I propose the fix that we preempt stuck HTTP operation and
actively retry. This would mitigate the problem, while in the long run,
we need to keep an eye on ABS usage and see if we can fully resolve this
problem.
The reasoning of such timeout mechanism: we use a much smaller timeout
than before to preempt, while it is possible that a normal listing
operation would take a longer time than the initial timeout if it
contains a lot of keys. Therefore, after we terminate the connection, we
should double the timeout, so that such requests would eventually
succeed.
## Summary of changes
* Use exponential growth for ABS list timeout.
* Rather than using a fixed timeout, use a timeout that starts small and
grows
* Rather than exposing timeouts to the list_streaming caller as soon as
we see them, only do so after we have retried a few times

## Problem
Along with the migration to Python 3.11, I switched `C(str, Enum)` with
`C(StrEnum)`; one such example is the `PgVersion` enum.
It required more changes in `PgVersion` itself (before, it accepted both
`str` and `int`, and after it, it supports only `str`), which caused the
`test_bulk_insert` test to fail.
## Summary of changes
- `test_bulk_insert`: explicitly cast pg_version from `timeline_detail`
to str
I found the rightward drift of the `renew_jwks` function hard to review.
This PR splits out some major logic and uses early returns to make the

## Problem

The notifications need to be sent whenever the waiters heap changes, per
the comment in `update_status`. But if 'advance' is called when there
are no waiters, or the new LSN is lower than the waiters so that no one
needs to be woken up, there's no need to send notifications. This saves
some CPU cycles in the common case that there are no waiters.
## Problem
In https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/9754 and the flakiness of
`test_readonly_node_gc`, we saw that although our logic for controlling
GC was sound, the validation of getpage requests was not, because it
could not consider LSN leases when requests arrived shortly after
restart.
Closes https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/9754
## Summary of changes
This is the "Option 3" discussed verbally -- rather than holding back gc
cutoff, we waive the usual validation of request LSN if we are still
waiting for leases to be sent after startup
- When validating LSN in `wait_or_get_last_lsn`, skip the validation
relative to GC cutoff if the timeline is still in its LSN lease grace
period
- Re-enable test_readonly_node_gc
Calling unwrap on the encoder is a little overzealous. One of the errors
that can be returned by the encode function in particular is the
non-existence of metrics for a metric family, so we should prematurely
filter instances like that out. I believe that the cause of this panic
was caused by a race condition between the prometheus collector and the
compute collecting the installed extensions metric for the first time.
The HTTP server is spawned on a separate thread before we even start
bringing up Postgres.

## Problem
We don't have a convenient way to gather CPU profiles from a running
binary, e.g. during production incidents or end-to-end benchmarks, nor
during microbenchmarks (particularly on macOS).
We would also like to have continuous profiling in production, likely
using [Grafana Cloud
Profiles](https://grafana.com/products/cloud/profiles-for-continuous-profiling/).
We may choose to use either eBPF profiles or pprof profiles for this
(pending testing and discussion with SREs), but pprof profiles appear
useful regardless for the reasons listed above. See
https://github.com/neondatabase/cloud/issues/14888.
This PR is intended as a proof of concept, to try it out in staging and
drive further discussions about profiling more broadly.
Touches #9534.
Touches https://github.com/neondatabase/cloud/issues/14888.
## Summary of changes
Adds a HTTP route `/profile/cpu` that takes a CPU profile and returns
it. Defaults to a 5-second pprof Protobuf profile for use with e.g.
`pprof` or Grafana Alloy, but can also emit an SVG flamegraph. Query
parameters:
* `format`: output format (`pprof` or `svg`)
* `frequency`: sampling frequency in microseconds (default 100)
* `seconds`: number of seconds to profile (default 5)
Also integrates pprof profiles into Criterion benchmarks, such that
flamegraph reports can be taken with `cargo bench ... --profile-duration
<seconds>`. Output under `target/criterion/*/profile/flamegraph.svg`.
Example profiles:
* pprof profile (use [`pprof`](https://github.com/google/pprof)):

## Problem
We saw a scale test failure when one shard went
secondary->attached->secondary in a short period of time -- the metrics
for the shard failed a validation assertion that is meant to ensure the
size metric matches the sum of layer sizes in the SecondaryDetail
struct.
This appears to be due to two SecondaryTenants being alive at the same
time -- the first one was shut down but still had its contributions to
the metrics.
Closes: https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/9628
## Summary of changes
- Refactor code for validating metrics and call it in shutdown as well
as during downloads
- Move code for dropping per-tenant secondary metrics from drop() into
shutdown(), so that once shutdown() completes it is definitely safe to
instantiate another SecondaryTenant for the same tenant.
Before, `OpenTelemetry` errors were printed to stdout/stderr directly,
causing one of the few log lines without a timestamp, like:
```
OpenTelemetry trace error occurred. error sending request for url (http://localhost:4318/v1/traces)
```
Now, we print:
```
2024-11-21T02:24:20.511160Z INFO OpenTelemetry error: error sending request for url (http://localhost:4318/v1/traces)
```

## Summary of changes

Adds support to the `find_garbage` command to restrict itself to a
partial tenant ID prefix, say `a`, and then it only traverses tenants
with IDs starting with `a`. One can now pass the `--tenant-id-prefix`
parameter.
That way, one can shard the `find_garbage` command and make it run in
parallel.
The PR also does a change of how `remote_storage` first removes trailing
`/`s, only to then add them in the listing function. It turns out that
this isn't neccessary and it prevents the prefix functionality from
working. S3 doesn't do this either.
## Problem
We were hitting this assertion in debug mode tests sometimes.
This case was being hit when the parent shard has no resident layers.
For instance, this is the case on split retry where the previous attempt
shut-down the parent and deleted local state for it. If the logical size
calculation does not download some layers before we get to the
hardlinking, then the assertion is hit.
## Summary of Changes
Remove the assertion. It's fine for the ancestor to not have any
resident layers at the time of the split.

Follow up to #9803
See https://github.com/neondatabase/cloud/issues/14378
In collaboration with @cloneable and @awarus, we sifted through logs and
simply demoted some logs to debug. This is not at all finished and there
are more logs to review, but we ran out of time in the session we
organised. In any slightly more nuanced cases, we didn't touch the log,
instead leaving a TODO comment.
I've also slightly refactored the sql-over-http body read/length reject
code. I can split that into a separate PR. It just felt natural after I
switched to `read_body_with_limit` as we discussed during the meet.
## Problem
Long ago, in #5299 the tenant states for migration are added, but
respected only in a coarse-grained way: when hinted not to do deletions,
tenants will just avoid doing all GC or compaction.
Skipping compaction is not necessary for AttachedMulti, as we will soon
become the primary attached location, and it is not a waste of resources
to proceed with compaction. Instead, per the RFC
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/5029/files), deletions should
be queued up in this state, and executed later when we switch to
AttachedSingle.
Avoiding compaction in AttachedMulti can have an operational impact if a
tenant is under significant write load, as a long-running migration can
result in a large accumulation of delta layers with commensurate impact
on read latency.
Closes: https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/5396
## Summary of changes
- Add a 'config' part to RemoteTimelineClient so that it can be aware of
the mode of the tenant it belongs to, and wire this through for
construction + updates
- Add a special buffer for delayed deletions, and when in AttachedMulti
route deletions here instead of into the main remote client queue. This
is drained when transitioning to AttachedSingle. If the tenant is
detached or our process dies before then, then these objects are leaked.
- As a quality of life improvement, also use the remote timeline
client's knowledge of the tenant state to avoid submitting remote
consistent LSN updates for validation when in AttachedStale (as we know
these will fail)

## 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.

This test uses a gratuitous number of pageservers (16). This works fine

## Problem
Two recently observed log errors indicate safekeeper tasks for a
timeline running after that timeline's deletion has started.
- https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/8972
- https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/8974
These code paths do not have a mechanism that coordinates task shutdown
with the overall shutdown of the timeline.
## Summary of changes
- Add a `Gate` to `Timeline`
- Take the gate as part of resident timeline guard: any code that holds
a guard over a timeline staying resident should also hold a guard over
the timeline's total lifetime.
- Take the gate from the wal removal task
- Respect Timeline::cancel in WAL send/recv code, so that we do not
block shutdown indefinitely.
- Add a test that deletes timelines with open pageserver+compute
connections, to check these get torn down as expected.
There is some risk to introducing gates: if there is code holding a gate
which does not properly respect a cancellation token, it can cause
shutdown hangs. The risk of this for safekeepers is lower in practice
than it is for other services, because in a healthy timeline deletion,
the compute is shutdown first, then the timeline is deleted on the
pageserver, and finally it is deleted on the safekeepers -- that makes
it much less likely that some protocol handler will still be running.

Before, compute_ctl didn't have a good registry for what command would
run when, depending exclusively on sync code to apply changes. When
users have many databases/roles to manage, this step can take a
substantial amount of time, breaking assumptions about low (re)start
times in other systems.
This commit reduces the time compute_ctl takes to restart when changes
must be applied, by making all commands more or less blind writes, and
applying these commands in an asynchronous context, only waiting for
completion once we know the commands have all been sent.
Additionally, this reduces time spent by batching per-database
operations where previously we would create a new SQL connection for
every user-database operation we planned to execute.
## Problem
We have a bunch of duplicated code for automated releases. There will be
even more, once we have `release-compute` branch
(https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/9637).
Another issue with the current `release` workflow is that it creates a
PR from the main as is. If we create 2 different releases from the
same commit, GitHub could mix up results from different PRs.
## Summary of changes
- Create a reusable workflow for releases
- Create an empty commit to differentiate releases
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.

The community decided to make a new off-schedule release due to ABI
breakage in last week's release. We're not affected by the ABI
breakage because we rebuild all extensions in our docker images, but
let's stay up-to-date. There were a few other fixes in the release
too.
Currently, local_proxy will write an error log if it doesn't find the
config file. This is expected for startup, so it's just noise. It is an
error if we do receive an explicit SIGHUP though.
I've also demoted the build info logs to be debug level. We don't need
them in the compute image since we have other ways to determine what
code is running.
Lastly, I've demoted SIGHUP signal handling from warn to info, since
it's not really a warning event.

## 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.

- 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

Earlier work (#7547) has made the scrubber internally generic, but one
could only configure it to use S3 storage.
This is the final piece to make (most of, snapshotting still requires
S3) the scrubber be able to be configured via GenericRemoteStorage.
I.e. you can now set an env var like:
```
REMOTE_STORAGE_CONFIG='remote_storage = { bucket_name = "neon-dev-safekeeper-us-east-2d", bucket_region = "us-east-2" }
```
and the scrubber will read it instead.
There is a potential data corruption issue, not one I've encountered,
but it's still not hard to hit with some correct looking code given our
current architecture. It has to do with the timeline's memory object storage
via reference counted `Arc`s, and the removal of `retain_lsn` entries at
the drop of the last `Arc` reference.
The corruption steps are as follows:
1. timeline gets offloaded. timeline object A doesn't get dropped
though, because some long-running task accesses it
2. the same timeline gets unoffloaded again. timeline object B gets
created for it, timeline object A still referenced. both point to the
same timeline.
3. the task keeping the reference to timeline object A exits. destructor
for object A runs, removing `retain_lsn` in the timeline's parent.
4. the timeline's parent runs gc without the `retain_lsn` of the still
exant timleine's child, leading to data corruption.
In general we are susceptible each time when we recreate a `Timeline`
object in the same process, which happens both during a timeline
offload/unoffload cycle, as well as during an ancestor detach operation.
The solution this PR implements is to make the destructor for a timeline
as well as an offloaded timeline remove at most one `retain_lsn`.
PR #9760 has added a log line to print the refcounts at timeline
offload, but this only detects one of the places where we do such a
recycle operation. Plus it doesn't prevent the actual issue.
I doubt that this occurs in practice. It is more a defense in depth measure.
Usually I'd assume that the timeline gets dropped immediately in step 1,
as there is no background tasks referencing it after its shutdown.
But one never knows, and reducing the stakes of step 1 actually occurring
is a really good idea, from potential data corruption to waste of CPU time.
Part of #8088
## Problem
We don't take advantage of queue depth generated by the compute
on the pageserver. We can process getpage requests more efficiently
by batching them.
## Summary of changes
Batch up incoming getpage requests that arrive within a configurable
time window (`server_side_batch_timeout`).
Then process the entire batch via one `get_vectored` timeline operation.
By default, no merging takes place.

## Problem
`no_sync` initially just skipped syncfs on startup (#9677). I'm also
interested in flaky tests that time out during pageserver shutdown while
flushing l0s, so to eliminate disk throughput as a source of issues
there,

- Add a SyncMode enum to configure VirtualFile and respect it in
sync_all and sync_data functions
- During pageserver startup, set SyncMode according to `no_sync`
## Problem
When processing pipelined `AppendRequest`s, we explicitly flush the WAL
every second and return an `AppendResponse`. However, the WAL is also
implicitly flushed on segment bounds, but this does not result in an
`AppendResponse`. Because of this, concurrent transactions may take up
to 1 second to commit and writes may take up to 1 second before sending
to the pageserver.
## Summary of changes
Advance `flush_lsn` when a WAL segment is closed and flushed, and emit
an `AppendResponse`. To accommodate this, track the `flush_lsn` in
addition to the `flush_record_lsn`.
## Problem
It turns out that `WalStreamDecoder::poll_decode` returns the start LSN
of the next record and not the end LSN of the current record. They are
not always equal. For example, they're not equal when the record in
question is an XLOG SWITCH record.
## Summary of changes
Rename things to reflect that.

PR #9308 has modified tenant activation code to take offloaded child
timelines into account for populating the list of `retain_lsn` values.
However, there is more places than just tenant activation where one
needs to update the `retain_lsn`s.
This PR fixes some bugs of the current code that could lead to
corruption in the worst case:
1. Deleting of an offloaded timeline would not get its `retain_lsn`
purged from its parent. With the patch we now do it, but as the parent
can be offloaded as well, the situatoin is a bit trickier than for
non-offloaded timelines which can just keep a pointer to their parent.
Here we can't keep a pointer because the parent might get offloaded,
then unoffloaded again, creating a dangling pointer situation. Keeping a
pointer to the *tenant* is not good either, because we might drop the
offloaded timeline in a context where a `offloaded_timelines` lock is
already held: so we don't want to acquire a lock in the drop code of
OffloadedTimeline.
2. Unoffloading a timeline would not get its `retain_lsn` values
populated, leading to it maybe garbage collecting values that its
children might need. We now call `initialize_gc_info` on the parent.
3. Offloading of a timeline would not get its `retain_lsn` values
registered as offloaded at the parent. So if we drop the `Timeline`
object, and its registration is removed, the parent would not have any
of the child's `retain_lsn`s around. Also, before, the `Timeline` object
would delete anything related to its timeline ID, now it only deletes
`retain_lsn`s that have `MaybeOffloaded::No` set.
Incorporates Chi's reproducer from #9753. cc
https://github.com/neondatabase/cloud/issues/20199
The `test_timeline_retain_lsn` test is extended:
1. it gains a new dimension, duplicating each mode, to either have the
"main" branch be the direct parent of the timeline we archive, or the
"test_archived_parent" branch intermediary, creating a three timeline
structure. This doesn't test anything fixed by this PR in particular,
just explores the vast space of possible configurations a little bit
more.
2. it gains two new modes, `offload-parent`, which tests the second
point, and `offload-no-restart` which tests the third point.
It's easy to verify the test actually is "sharp" by removing one of the
respective `self.initialize_gc_info()`, `gc_info.insert_child()` or
`ancestor_children.push()`.

## Problem
We are pining our fork of rust-postgres to a commit hash and that
prevents us from making
further changes to it. The latest commit in rust-postgres requires
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/8747,
but that seems to have gone stale. I reverted rust-postgres `neon`
branch to the pinned commit in
https://github.com/neondatabase/rust-postgres/pull/31.
## Summary of changes
Switch back to using the `neon` branch of the rust-postgres fork.
If WAL truncation fails in the middle it might leave some data on disk
above the write/flush LSN. In theory, concatenated with previous records
it might form bogus WAL (though very unlikely in practice because CRC
would protect from that). To protect from that, set
pending_wal_truncation flag: means before any WAL writes truncation must
be retried until it succeeds. We already did that in case of safekeeper
restart, now extend this mechanism for failures without restart. Also,
importantly, reset LSNs in the beginning of the operation, not in the
end, because once on disk deletion starts previous pointers are wrong.
All this most likely haven't created any problems in practice because
CRC protects from the consequences.
Tests for this are hard; simulation infrastructure might be useful here
in the future, but not yet.
## Problem
Historically, if a control component passed a pageserver "generation: 1"
this could be a quick way to corrupt a tenant by loading a historic
index.
Follows https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/9383Closes#6951
## Summary of changes
- Introduce a Fatal variant to DownloadError, to enable index downloads
to signal when they have encountered a scary enough situation that we
shouldn't proceed to load the tenant.
- Handle this variant by putting the tenant into a broken state (no
matter which timeline within the tenant reported it)
- Add a test for this case
In the event that this behavior fires when we don't want it to, we have
ways to intervene:
- "Touch" an affected index to update its mtime (download+upload S3
object)
- If this behavior is triggered, it indicates we're attaching in some
old generation, so we should be able to fix that by manually bumping
generation numbers in the storage controller database (this should never
happen, but it's an option if it does)
and add /metrics endpoint to compute_ctl to expose such metrics

In the 2.9 release notes, psycopg2 also made the following change:
> `with connection` starts a transaction on autocommit transactions too
Some of these connections are indeed long-lived, so we were retaining
tons of WAL on the endpoints because we had a transaction pinned in the
past.

## Problem
The control file is flushed on the WAL ingest path when the commit LSN
advances by one segment, to bound the amount of recovery work in case of
a crash. This involves 3 additional fsyncs, which can have a significant
impact on WAL ingest throughput. This is to some extent mitigated by
`AppendResponse` not being emitted on segment bound flushes, since this
will prevent commit LSN advancement, which will be addressed separately.
## Summary of changes
Don't flush the control file on the WAL ingest path at all. Instead,
leave that responsibility to the timeline manager, but ask it to flush
eagerly if the control file lags the in-memory commit LSN by more than
one segment. This should not cause more than `REFRESH_INTERVAL` (300 ms)
additional latency before flushing the control file, which is
negligible.
Add a test that ensures the `retain_lsn` functionality works. Right now,
there is not a single test that is broken if offloaded or non-offloaded
timelines don't get registered at their parents, preventing gc from
discarding the ancestor_lsns of the children. This PR fills that gap.
The test has four modes:
* `offloaded`: offload the child timeline, run compaction on the parent
timeline, unarchive the child timeline, then try reading from it.
hopefully the data is still there.
* `offloaded-corrupted`: offload the child timeline, corrupts the
manifest in a way that the pageserver believes the timeline was
flattened. This is the closest we can get to pretend the `retain_lsn`
mechanism doesn't exist for offloaded timelines, so we can avoid adding
endpoints to the pageserver that do this manually for tests. The test
then checks that indeed data is corrupted and the endpoint can't be
started. That way we know that the test is actually working, and
actually tests the `retain_lsn` mechanism, instead of say the lsn lease
mechanism, or one of the many other mechanisms that impede gc.
* `archived`: the child timeline gets archived but doesn't get
offloaded. this currently matches the `None` case but we might have
refactors in the future that make archived timelines sufficiently
different from non-archived ones.
* `None`: the child timeline doesn't even get archived. this tests that
normal timelines participate in `retain_lsn`. I've made them locally not
participate in `retain_lsn` (via commenting out the respective
`ancestor_children.push` statement in tenant.rs) and ran the testsuite,
and not a single test failed. So this test is first of its kind.

We found that exporting GH Workflow Runs in batch is more efficient due
to
- better utilisation of Github API
- and gh runners usage is rounded to minutes, so even when ad-hoc export
is done in 5-10 seconds, we billed for one minute usage
So now we introduce batch exporting, with version v0.2.x of github
workflow stats exporter.
How it's expected to work now:
- every 15 minutes we query for the workflow runs, created in last 2
hours
- to avoid missing workflows that ran for more than 2 hours, every night
(00:25) we will query workflows created in past 24 hours and export them
as well
- should we have query for even longer periods?
- lets see how it works with current schedule
- for longer periods like for days or weeks, it may require to adjust
logic and concurrency of querying data, so lets for now use simpler
version
The final patch for partial compaction, part of
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/9114, close
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/8921 (note that we didn't
implement parallel compaction or compaction scheduler for partial
compaction -- currently this needs to be scheduled by using a Python
script to split the keyspace, and in the future, automatically split
based on the key partitioning when the pageserver wants to trigger a
gc-compaction)
## Summary of changes
* Update the layer selection algorithm to use the same selection as full
compaction (everything intersect/below gc horizon)
* Update the layer selection algorithm to also generate a list of delta
layers that need to be rewritten
* Add the logic to rewrite delta layers and add them back to the layer
map
* Update test case to do partial compaction on deltas

## 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
## Problem
We have no specific benchmark testing project migration of postgresql
project with existing data into Neon.
Typical steps of such a project migration are
- schema creation in the neon project
- initial COPY of relations
- creation of indexes and constraints
- vacuum analyze
## Summary of changes
Add a periodic benchmark running 9 AM UTC every day.
In each run:
- copy a 200 GiB project that has realistic schema, data, tables,
indexes and constraints from another project into
- a new Neon project (7 CU fixed)
- an existing tenant, (but new branch and new database) that already has
4 TiB of data
- use pgcopydb tool to automate all steps and parallelize COPY and index
creation
- parse pgcopydb output and report performance metrics in Neon
performance test database
## Logs
This benchmark has been tested first manually and then as part of
benchmarking.yml workflow, example run see

## Problem
Once we enable the merge queue for the `main` branch, it won't be
possible to adjust the commit message right after pressing the "Squash

To avoid extra noise in the commits in the `main` with the checklist
leftovers, I propose removing the checklist from the PR template and
keeping only the Problem / Summary of changes.
## Summary of changes

## Summary of Changes
Introduce a new "ControllerPeer" scope and use it for step-down requests.
## Problem
The Merge queue doesn't work because it expects certain jobs, which we
don't have in the `pre-merge-checks` workflow.
But it turns out we can just create jobs/checks with the same names in
any workflow that we run.
## Summary of changes
- Add `conclusion` jobs
- Create `neon-cloud-e2e` status check
- Add a bunch of `if`s to handle cases with no relevant changes found
and prepare the workflow to run rust checks in the future
- List the workflow in `report-workflow-stats` to collect stats about it
It is possible at the point we shutdown the timeline, there are
still layer files we did not upload.
## Summary of changes
* If the queue is not empty, avoid offloading.
* Shutdown the timeline gracefully using the flush mode to
ensure all local files are uploaded before deleting the timeline
directory.

Right now, our environments create databases with the C locale, which is
really unfortunate for users who have data stored in other languages
that they want to analyze. For instance, show_trgm on Hebrew text
currently doesn't work in staging or production.
I don't envision this being the final solution. I think this is just a
way to set a known value so the pageserver doesn't use its parent
environment. The final solution to me is exposing initdb parameters to
users in the console. Then they could use a different locale or encoding
if they so chose.

## Problem
To prevent breaking main after Python 3.11 PR get merged
we need to enable merge queue and run `check-codestyle-python`
job on it
## Summary of changes
- Move `check-codestyle-python` to a reusable workflow
- Run this workflow on `merge_group` event
In INC-317
https://neondb.slack.com/archives/C033RQ5SPDH/p1730815677932209, we saw
an interesting series of operations that would remove valid layer files
existing in the layer map.
* Timeline A starts compaction and generates an image layer Z but not
uploading it yet.
* Timeline B/C starts ancestor detaching (which should not affect
timeline A)
* The tenant gets restarted as part of the ancestor detaching process,
without increasing the generation number.
* Timeline A reloads, discovering the layer Z is a future layer, and
schedules a **deletion into the deletion queue**. This means that the
file will be deleted any time in the future.
* Timeline A starts compaction and generates layer Z again, adding it to
the layer map. Note that because we don't bump generation number during
ancestor detach, it has the same filename + generation number as the
original Z.
* Timeline A deletes layer Z from s3 + disk, and now we have a dangling
reference in the layer map, blocking all
compaction/logical_size_calculation process.
## Summary of changes
* We wait until all layers to be uploaded before shutting down the
tenants in `Flush` mode.
* Ancestor detach restarts now use this mode.
* Ancestor detach also waits for remote queue completion before starting
the detaching process.
* The patch ensures that we don't have any future image layer (or
something similar) after restart, but not fixing the underlying problem
around generation numbers.

## Problem
In test environments, the `syncfs` that the pageserver does on startup
can take a long time, as other tests running concurrently might have
many gigabytes of dirty pages.
## Summary of changes
- Add a `no_sync` option to the pageserver's config.
- Skip syncfs on startup if this is set
- A subsequent PR (https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/9678) will
enable this by default in tests. We need to wait until after the next
release to avoid breaking compat tests, which would fail if we set
no_sync & use an old pageserver binary.
Q: Why is this a different mechanism than safekeeper, which as a
--no-sync CLI?
A: Because the way we manage pageservers in neon_local depends on the
pageserver.toml containing the full configuration, whereas safekeepers
have a config file which is neon-local-specific and can drive a CLI
flag.
Q: Why is the option no_sync rather than sync?
A: For boolean configs with a dangerous value, it's preferable to make
"false" the safe option, so that any downstream future config tooling
that might have a "booleans are false by default" behavior (e.g. golang
structs) is safe by default.
Q: Why only skip the syncfs, and not all fsyncs?
A: Skipping all fsyncs would require more code changes, and the most
acute problem isn't fsyncs themselves (these just slow down a running
test), it's the syncfs (which makes a pageserver startup slow as a
result of _other_ tests)

While setting up some tests, I noticed that we didn't support keycloak.
They make use of encryption JWKs as well as signature ones. Our current
jwks crate does not support parsing encryption keys which caused the
entire jwk set to fail to parse. Switching to lazy parsing fixes this.
Also while setting up tests, I couldn't use localhost jwks server as we
require HTTPS and we were using webpki so it was impossible to add a
custom CA. Enabling native roots addresses this possibility.
I saw some of our current e2e tests against our custom JWKS in s3 were
taking a while to fetch. I've added a timeout + retries to address this.

The metrics from LR publisher testing project: ~300KB aux key deltas per
256MB files. Therefore, I think we can do compaction more aggressively
as these deltas are small and compaction can reduce layer download
latency. We also have a read path perf fix
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/9631 but I'd still combine the
read path fix with the reduce of the compaction threshold.

* dump more logs

## Problem
When we create a new segment, we zero it out in order to avoid changing
the length and fsyncing metadata on every write. However, we zeroed it
out by writing 8 KB zero-pages, and Tokio file writes have non-trivial
overhead.
## Summary of changes
Zero out the segment using
[`File::set_len()`](https://docs.rs/tokio/latest/i686-unknown-linux-gnu/tokio/fs/struct.File.html#method.set_len)
instead. This will typically (depending on the filesystem) just write a
sparse file and omit the 16 MB of data entirely. This improves WAL
append throughput for large messages by over 400% with fsync disabled,
and 100% with fsync enabled.
## Problem
We don't have any benchmarks for Safekeeper WAL ingestion.
## Summary of changes
Add some basic benchmarks for WAL ingestion, specifically for
`SafeKeeper::process_msg()` (single append) and `WalAcceptor` (pipelined
batch ingestion). Also add some baseline file write benchmarks.
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
Benchmarks need more control over the WAL generated by `WalGenerator`.
In particular, they need to vary the size of logical messages.
## Summary of changes
* Make `WalGenerator` generic over `RecordGenerator`, which constructs
WAL records.
* Add `LogicalMessageGenerator` which emits logical messages, with a
configurable payload.
* Minor tweaks and code reorganization.
There are no changes to the core logic or emitted WAL.
We need to use the shard associated with the layer file, not the shard
associated with our current tenant shard ID.
Due to shard splits, the shard IDs can refer to older files.

Fixes#9518.
## Problem
After removing the assertion `layers_removed == 0` in #9506, we could
miss breakage if we solely rely on the successful execution of the
`SELECT` query to check if lease is properly protecting layers. Details
listed in #9518.
Also, in integration tests, we sometimes run into the race condition
where getpage request comes before the lease get renewed (item 2 of
#8817), even if compute_ctl sends a lease renewal as soon as it sees a
`/configure` API calls that updates the `pageserver_connstr`. In this
case, we would observe a getpage request error stating that we `tried to
request a page version that was garbage collected` (as we seen in
[Allure
Report](https://neon-github-public-dev.s3.amazonaws.com/reports/pr-8613/11550393107/index.html#suites/3ccffb1d100105b98aed3dc19b717917/d1a1ba47bc180493)).
## Summary of changes
- Use layer map dump to verify if the lease protects what it claimed:
Record all historical layers that has `start_lsn <= lease_lsn` before
and after running timeline gc. This is the same check as
ad79f42460/pageserver/src/tenant/timeline.rs (L5025-L5027)
The set recorded after GC should contain every layer in the set recorded
before GC.
- Wait until log contains another successful lease request before
running the `SELECT` query after GC. We argued in #8817 that the bad
request can only exist within a short period after migration/restart,
and our test shows that as long as a lease renewal is done before the
first getpage request sent after reconfiguration, we will not have bad
request.

In https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/9441, the tenant has a
lot of aux keys spread in multiple aux files. The perf tool shows that a
significant amount of time is spent on remove_overlapping_keys. For
sparse keyspaces, we don't need to report missing key errors anyways,
and it's very likely that we will need to read all layers intersecting
with the key range. Therefore, this patch adds a new fast path for
sparse keyspace reads that we do not track `unmapped_keyspace` in a
fine-grained way. We only modify it when we find an image layer.
In debug mode, it was ~5min to read the aux files for a dump of the
tenant, and now it's only 8s, that's a 60x speedup.
## Summary of changes
* Do not add sparse keys into `keys_done` so that remove_overlapping
does nothing.
* Allow `ValueReconstructSituation::Complete` to be updated again in
`ValuesReconstructState::update_key` for sparse keyspaces.

I think I meant to make these changes over 6 months ago. alas, better
late than never.
1. should_reject doesn't eagerly intern the endpoint string
2. Rate limiter uses a std Mutex instead of a tokio Mutex.
3. Recently I introduced a `-local-proxy` endpoint suffix. I forgot to
add this to normalize.
4. Random but a small cleanup making the ControlPlaneEvent deser
directly to the interned strings.
## Problem
Pinning a tenant by setting Pause scheduling policy doesn't work because
drain/fill code moves the tenant around during deploys.
Closes: https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/9612
## Summary of changes
- In drain, only move a tenant if it is in Active or Essential mode
- In fill, only move a tenant if it is in Active mode.
The asymmetry is a bit annoying, but it faithfully respects the purposes
of the modes: Essential is meant to endeavor to keep the tenant
available, which means it needs to be drained but doesn't need to be
migrated during fills.
## Problem
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/9524 split the decoding and
interpretation step from ingestion.
The output of the first phase is a `wal_decoder::models::InterpretedWalRecord`.
Before this patch set that struct contained a list of `Value` instances.
We wish to lift the decoding and interpretation step to the safekeeper,
but it would be nice if the safekeeper gave us a batch containing the raw data instead of actual values.
## Summary of changes
Main goal here is to make `InterpretedWalRecord` hold a raw buffer which
contains pre-serialized Values.
For this we do:
1. Add a `SerializedValueBatch` type. This is `inmemory_layer::SerializedBatch` with some
extra functionality for extension, observing values for shard 0 and tests.
2. Replace `inmemory_layer::SerializedBatch` with `SerializedValueBatch`
3. Make `DatadirModification` maintain a `SerializedValueBatch`.
### `DatadirModification` changes
`DatadirModification` now maintains a `SerializedValueBatch` and extends
it as new WAL records come in (to avoid flushing to disk on every
record).
In turn, this cascaded into a number of modifications to
`DatadirModification`:
1. Replace `pending_data_pages` and `pending_zero_data_pages` with `pending_data_batch`.
2. Removal of `pending_zero_data_pages` and its cousin `on_wal_record_end`
3. Rename `pending_bytes` to `pending_metadata_bytes` since this is what it tracks now.
4. Adapting of various utility methods like `len`, `approx_pending_bytes` and `has_dirty_data_pages`.
Removal of `pending_zero_data_pages` and the optimisation associated
with it ((1) and (2)) deserves more detail.
Previously all zero data pages went through `pending_zero_data_pages`.
We wrote zero data pages when filling gaps caused by relation extension
(case A) and when handling special wal records (case B). If it happened
that the same WAL record contained a non zero write for an entry in
`pending_zero_data_pages` we skipped the zero write.
Case A: We handle this differently now. When ingesting the
`SerialiezdValueBatch` associated with one PG WAL record, we identify the gaps and fill the
them in one go. Essentially, we move from a per key process (gaps were filled after each
new key), and replace it with a per record process. Hence, the optimisation is not
required anymore.
Case B: When the handling of a special record needs to zero out a key,
it just adds that to the current batch. I inspected the code, and I
don't think the optimisation kicked in here.
The overall idea of the PR is to rename a few types to make their
purpose more clear, reduce abstraction where not needed, and move types
to to more better suited modules.
The PROXY Protocol V2 offers a "command" concept. It can be of two
different values. "Local" and "Proxy". The spec suggests that "Local" be
used for health-checks. We can thus use this to silence logging for such
health checks such as those from NLB.
This additionally refactors the flow to be a bit more type-safe, self
documenting and using zerocopy deser.
## Problem
While experimenting with `MAX_SEND_SIZE` for benchmarking, I saw stack
overflows when increasing it to 1 MB. Turns out a few buffers of this
size are stack-allocated rather than heap-allocated. Even at the default
128 KB size, that's a bit large to allocate on the stack.
## Summary of changes
Heap-allocate buffers of size `MAX_SEND_SIZE`.
Unify client, EndpointConnPool and DbUserConnPool for remote and local
conn.
- Use new ClientDataEnum for additional client data.
- Add ClientInnerCommon client structure.
- Remove Client and EndpointConnPool code from local_conn_pool.rs
## Problem
First issues noticed when trying to run scrubber find-garbage on Azure:
- Azure staging contains projects with -1 set for max_project_size:
apparently the control plane treats this as a signed field.
- Scrubber code assumed that listing projects should filter to
aws-$REGION. This is no longer needed (per comment in the code) because
we know hit region-local APIs.
This PR doesn't make it work all the way (`init_remote` still assumes
S3), but these are necessary precursors.
## Summary of changes
- Change max-project_size from unsigned to signed
- Remove region filtering in favor of simply using the right region's
API (which we already do)
Since 5f83c9290b482dc90006c400dfc68e85a17af785/#1504 we've had
duplication in construction of models::TenantConfig, where both
constructs contained the same code. This PR removes one of the two
locations to avoid the duplication.
## Problem
Tenant operations may return `409 Conflict` if the tenant is shutting
down. This status code is not retried by the control plane, causing
user-facing errors during pageserver restarts. Operations should instead
return `503 Service Unavailable`, which may be retried for idempotent
operations.
## Summary of changes
Convert
`GetActiveTenantError::WillNotBecomeActive(TenantState::Stopping)` to
`ApiError::ShuttingDown` rather than `ApiError::Conflict`. This error is
returned by `Tenant::wait_to_become_active` in most (all?)
tenant/timeline-related HTTP routes.
* Also rename `AuthFailed` variant to `PasswordFailed`.
* Before this all JWT errors end up in `AuthError::AuthFailed()`,
expects a username and also causes cache invalidation.
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?

receivers.
* `safekeeper_wal_receiver_queue_depth`: histogram of queue depths per
receiver, sampled every 5 seconds.
* `safekeeper_wal_receiver_queue_depth_total`: gauge of total queued
messages across all receivers.
* `safekeeper_wal_receiver_queue_size_total`: gauge of total queued
message sizes across all receivers.
There are already metrics for ingested WAL volume: `written_wal_bytes`
counter per timeline, and `safekeeper_write_wal_bytes` per-request
histogram.
AWS/azure private link shares extra information in the "TLV" values of
the proxy protocol v2 header. This code doesn't action on it, but it
parses it as appropriate.
It seems the ecosystem is not so keen on moving to aws-lc-rs as it's
build setup is more complicated than ring (requiring cmake).
Eventually I expect the ecosystem should pivot to
https://github.com/ctz/graviola/tree/main/rustls-graviola as it
stabilises (it has a very simply build step and license), but for now
let's try not have a headache of juggling two crypto libs.
I also noticed that tonic will just fail with tls without a default
provider, so I added some defensive code for that.
## Problem
In https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/9589, timeline offload code
is modified to return an explicit error type rather than propagating
anyhow::Error. One of the 'Other' cases there is I/O errors from local
timeline deletion, which shouldn't need to exist, because our policy is
not to try and continue running if the local disk gives us errors.
## Summary of changes
- Make `delete_local_timeline_directory` and use `.fatal_err(` on I/O
errors

## Problem
We may sometimes use scheduling modes like `Pause` to pin a tenant in
its current location for operational reasons. It is undesirable for the
chaos task to make any changes to such projects.
## Summary of changes
- Add a check for scheduling mode
- Add a log line when we do choose to do a chaos action for a tenant:
this will help us understand which operations originate from the chaos
task.
## Problem
We don't have any observability into full WalAcceptor queues per
timeline.
## Summary of changes
Logs a message when a WalAcceptor send has blocked for 5 seconds, and
another message when the send completes. This implies that the log
frequency is at most once every 5 seconds per timeline, so we don't need
further throttling.
## Problem
The IAM role associated with our github action runner supports a max
token expiration which is lower than the value we tried.
## Summary of changes
Since we believe to have understood the performance regression we (by
ensuring availability zone affinity of compute and pageserver) the job
should again run in lower than 5 hours and we revert this change instead
of increasing the max session token expiration in the IAM role which
would reduce our security.
## 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`.
## Problem
We wish for the deployment orchestrator to use infra scoped tokens,
but storcon endpoints it's using require admin scoped tokens.
## Summary of Changes
Switch over all endpoints that are used by the deployment orchestrator
to use an infra scoped token. This causes no breakage during mixed
version scenarios because admin scoped tokens allow access to all
endpoints. The deployment orchestrator can cut over to the infra token
after this commit touches down in prod.
Once this commit is released we should also update the tests code to use
infra scoped tokens where appropriate. Currently it would fail on the
[compat tests](9761b6a64e/test_runner/regress/test_storage_controller.py (L69-L71)).
## Problem
The final part of https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/9543 will
be a chaos test that creates/deletes/archives/offloads timelines while
restarting pageservers and migrating tenants. Developing that test
showed up a few places where we log errors during normal shutdown.
## Summary of changes
- UninitializedTimeline's drop should log at info severity: this is a
normal code path when some part of timeline creation encounters a
cancellation `?` path.
- When offloading and finding a `RemoteTimelineClient` in a
non-initialized state, this is not an error and should not be logged as
such.
- The `offload_timeline` function returned an anyhow error, so callers
couldn't gracefully pick out cancellation errors from real errors:
update this to have a structured error type and use it throughout.
## Problem
clickbench regression causes clickbench to run >9 hours and the AWS
session token is expired before the run completes
## Summary of changes
extend lifetime of session token for this job to 12 hours
## Problem
Decoding and ingestion are still coupled in `pageserver::WalIngest`.
## Summary of changes
A new type is added to `wal_decoder::models`, InterpretedWalRecord. This
type contains everything that the pageserver requires in order to ingest
a WAL record. The highlights are the `metadata_record` which is an
optional special record type to be handled and `blocks` which stores
key, value pairs to be persisted to storage.
This type is produced by
`wal_decoder::models::InterpretedWalRecord::from_bytes` from a raw PG
wal record.
The rest of this commit separates decoding and interpretation of the PG
WAL record from its application in `WalIngest::ingest_record`.

If we delete a timeline that has childen, those children will have their
data corrupted. Therefore, extend the already existing safety check to
offloaded timelines as well.
Part of #8088
In https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/9032, I would like to
eventually add a `generation` field to the consumption metrics cache.
The current encoding is not backward compatible and it is hard to add
another field into the cache. Therefore, this patch refactors the format
to store "field -> value", and it's easier to maintain backward/forward
compatibility with this new format.
## Summary of changes
* Add `NewRawMetric` as the new format.
* Add upgrade path. When opening the disk cache, the codepath first
inspects the `version` field, and decide how to decode.
* Refactor metrics generation code and tests.
* Add tests on upgrade / compatibility with the old format.

Constructing a remote client is no big deal. Yes, it means an extra
download from S3 but it's not that expensive. This simplifies code paths
and scenarios to test. This unifies timelines that have been recently
offloaded with timelines that have been offloaded in an earlier
invocation of the process.
Part of #8088
Disallow a request for timeline ancestor detach if either the to be
detached timeline, or any of the to be reparented timelines are
offloaded or archived.
In theory we could support timelines that are archived but not
offloaded, but archived timelines are at the risk of being offloaded, so
we treat them like offloaded timelines. As for offloaded timelines, any
code to "support" them would amount to unoffloading them, at which point
we can just demand to have the timelines be unarchived.

## Problem
We don't have a convenient way to generate WAL records for benchmarks
and tests.
## Summary of changes
Adds a WAL generator, exposed as an iterator. It currently only
generates logical messages (noops), but will be extended to write actual
table rows later.
Some existing code for WAL generation has been replaced with this
generator, to reduce duplication.
In July of 2023, Bojan and Chi authored
92aee7e07f. Our in production pageservers

basebackups.
## Problem
When tenant manifest objects are written without a generation suffix,
concurrently attached pageservers may stamp on each others writes of the
manifest and cause undefined behavior.
Closes: #9543
## Summary of changes
- Use download_generation_object helper when reading manifests, to
search for the most recent generation
- Use Tenant::generation as the generation suffix when writing
manifests.
This patch contains various improvements for the pagectl tool.
## Summary of changes
* Rewrite layer name parsing: LayerName now supports all variants we use
now.
* Drop pagectl's own layer parsing function, use LayerName in the
pageserver crate.
* Support image layer dumping in the layer dump command using
ImageLayer::dump, drop the original implementation.

## Problem
Uploads of the tenant manifest could race between different tasks,
resulting in unexpected results in remote storage.
Closes: https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/9556
## Summary of changes
- Create a central function for uploads that takes a tokio::sync::Mutex
- Store the latest upload in that Mutex, so that when there is lots of
concurrency (e.g. archive 20 timelines at once) we can coalesce their
manifest writes somewhat.
## Problem
Indices used to be the only kind of object where we had to search across
generations to find the most recent one. As of
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/9543, manifests will need
the same treatment.
## Summary of changes
- Refactor download_index_part to a generic download_generation_object
function, which will be usable for downloading manifest objects as well.
python based regression test setup for auth_broker. This uses a http
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.
In the base64 payload of an aws cognito jwt, I saw the following:
```
"iss":"https:\/\/cognito-idp.us-west-2.amazonaws.com\/us-west-2_redacted"
```
issuers are supposed to be URLs, and URLs are always valid un-escaped
JSON. However, `\/` is a valid escape character so what AWS is doing is
technically correct... sigh...
This PR refactors the test suite and adds a new regression test for
cognito.
## Problem
click bench job in benchmarking workflow has a performance regression
causing it to run in timeout of max job run.

managed project on Oct 14th.
Since then the regression shows.

Increase job timeout to 12 hours
As pointed out in
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/9489#discussion_r1814699683 ,
we currently didn't support deletion for offloaded timelines after the
timeline has been loaded from the manifest instead of having been
offloaded.
This was because the upload queue hasn't been initialized yet. This PR
thus initializes the timeline and shuts it down immediately.
Part of #8088
## Problem
We wish to have high level WAL decoding logic in `wal_decoder::decoder`
module.
## Summary of Changes
For this we need the `Value` and `NeonWalRecord` types accessible there, so:
1. Move `Value` and `NeonWalRecord` to `pageserver::value` and
`pageserver::record` respectively.
2. Get rid of `pageserver::repository` (follow up from (1))
3. Move PG specific WAL record types to `postgres_ffi::walrecord`. In
theory they could live in `wal_decoder`, but it would create a circular
dependency between `wal_decoder` and `postgres_ffi`. Long term it makes
sense for those types to be PG version specific, so that will work out nicely.
4. Move higher level WAL record types (to be ingested by pageserver)
into `wal_decoder::models`

Currently, all callers of `unoffload_timeline` ensure that the tenant
the unoffload operation is called on is active. We rely on it being
active as we activate the timeline below and don't want to race with the
activation code of the tenant (in the worst case, activating a timeline
twice).
Therefore, add this assertion.

As a DBaaS provider, Neon needs to provide a stable platform for
customers to build applications upon. At the same time however, we also
need to enable customers to use the latest and greatest technology, so
they can prototype their work, and we can solicit feedback. If all
extensions are treated the same in terms of stability, it is hard to
meet that goal.
There are now two new GUCs created by the Neon extension:
neon.allow_unstable_extensions: This is a session GUC which allows
a session to install and load unstable extensions.
neon.unstable_extensions: This is a comma-separated list of extension
names. We can check if a CREATE EXTENSION statement is attempting to
install an unstable extension, and if so, deny the request if
neon.allow_unstable_extensions is not set to true.
