## Problem

Measuring cardinality using logs is expensive and slow.

## Summary of changes

Implement a pre-aggregated HyperLogLog-based cardinality estimate.
HyperLogLog estimates the cardinality of a set by using the probability
that the uniform hash of a value will have a run of n 0s at the end is
`1/2^n`, therefore, having observed a run of `n` 0s suggests we have
measured `2^n` distinct values. By using multiple shards, we can use the
harmonic mean to get a more accurate estimate.

We record this into a Prometheus time-series. HyperLogLog counts can be
merged by taking the `max` of each shard. We can apply a `max_over_time`
in order to find the estimate of cardinality of distinct values over
time
This is the "partial revert" of #6384. The summaries turned out to be
expensive due to naive vec usage, but also inconclusive because of the
additional context required. In addition to removing summary traces,
small refactoring is done.
## Problem
There's no efficient way of querying the layer map for a range.

## Summary of changes
Introduce a range query for the layer map (`LayerMap::range_search`).
There's two broad steps to it:
1. Find all coverage changes for layers that intersect the queried range
(see `LayerCoverage::range_overlaps`).
The slightly tricky part is dealing with the start of the range. We can
either be aligned with a layer or not and we need
to treat these cases differently.
2. Iterate over the coverage changes and collect the result. For this we
use a two pointer approach: the trailing pointer tracks the start of the
current range (current location in the key space) and the forward
pointer tracks the next coverage change.

Plugging the range search into the read path is deferred to a future PR.

## Performance
I adapted the layer map benchmarks on a local branch. Range searches are 
between 2x and 2.5x slower than point searches. That's in line with what I
expected since we query thelayer map twice.

Since `Timeline::get` will proxy to `Timeline::get_vectored` we can
special case the one element layer map range search
at that point.
## Problem

Creating sharded tenants will require an instance of the sharding
service -- the initial goal is to deploy one of these in a staging
region (neondatabase/cloud#9718). It will run
as a kubernetes container, similar to the storage broker, so needs to be
built into the container image.

## Summary of changes

Add `attachment_service` binary to container image
## Problem
`rdkit` extension is built with `RDK_BUILD_FREETYPE_SUPPORT=ON` (by
default), which requires a bunch of additional dependencies, but the
support of freetype fonts isn't required for Postgres.

## Summary of changes
- Build `rdkit` with `RDK_BUILD_FREETYPE_SUPPORT=OFF`
- Remove extra dependencies from the Compute image
## Problem

The tenants we want to recover might have tens of thousands of keys, or
more. At that point, the AWS API returns a paginated response.

## Summary of changes

Support paginated responses for `list_object_versions` requests.

Follow-up of #6155, part of neondatabase/cloud#8233
## Problem

Taking my ideas from #6283 and
doing a bit less radical changes. smaller commits.

Proxy flow was quite deeply nested, which makes adding more interesting
error handling quite tricky.

## Summary of changes

I recommend reviewing commit by commit.

1. move handshake logic into a separate file
2. move passthrough logic into a separate file
3. no longer accept a closure in CancelMap session logic
4. Remove connect_to_db, copy logic into handle_client
5. flatten auth_and_wake_compute in authenticate
6. record info for link auth
Update pgvector extension from 0.5.1 to 0.6.0
When using spawn + wait_with_output instead of
std::process::Command::output or tokio::process::Command::output we must
configure the redirection.

Fixes: #6523 by discarding the stdout completely, we only care about
stderr if any.
…ng basebackup (#6400)

Before this patch, when requesting basebackup for a not-found tenant or
timeline, we'd emit an ERROR-level log entry with a huge stack trace.
See #6366 "Details" section for an example

With this patch, we log at INFO level and only a single line.
Example:

```
2024-01-19T14:16:11.479800Z  INFO page_service_conn_main{peer_addr=127.0.0.1:43448}: query handler for 'basebackup d69a536d529a68fcf85bc070030cdf4b 035484e9c28d8d0138a492caadd03ffd 0/2204340 --gzip' entity not found: Tenant d69a536d529a68fcf85bc070030cdf4b not found
2024-01-19T14:19:35.807819Z  INFO page_service_conn_main{peer_addr=127.0.0.1:48862}: query handler for 'basebackup d69a536d529a68fcf85bc070030cdf4a 035484e9c28d8d0138a492caadd03ffd 0/2204340 --gzip' entity not found: Timeline d69a536d529a68fcf85bc070030cdf4a/035484e9c28d8d0138a492caadd03ffd was not found
```

fixes #6366

Changes
-------

- Change `handle_basebackup_request` to return a `QueryError`
- The new `impl From<WaitLsnError> for QueryError` is needed so the `?`
at `wait_lsn()` call in `handle_basebackup_request` works again. It's
duplicating `impl From<WaitLsnError> for PageStreamError`.
- Remove hard-to-spot conversion of `handle_basebackup_request` return
value to anyhow::Result (the place where I replaced `anyhow::Ok` with
`Result::<(), QueryError>::Ok(())`
- Add forgotten distinguished handling for "Tenant not found" case in
`impl From<GetActiveTenantError> for QueryError`

This was not at all pleasant, and I find it very hard to follow the
various error conversions.
It took me a while to spot the hard-to-spot `anyhow::Ok` thing above.
It would have been caught by the compiler if we weren't auto-converting
`anyhow::Error` into `QueryError::Other`.
We should move away from that, in my opinion, instead forcing each
`.context()` site to become `.context().map_err(QueryError::Other)`.
But that's for a future PR.
It hanged if file size is less than of a normal segment. Normally that doesn't
happen, but it might in case of crash during segment init. We're going to fix
that half initialized segment by durably renaming it after cooking, so this fix
won't be needed, but better avoid busy loop anyway.

fixes #6401
Since fdatasync is used for flushing WAL, changing file size is unsafe. Make
segment creation atomic by using tmp file + rename to avoid using partially
initialized segments.

fixes #6402
## Problem

PR #6500 has removed the limiting by number of versions/deletions for
time travel calls. We never get informed about how many versions there
are, and thus the call would just hang without any indication of
progress.

## Summary of changes

We improve the pageserver's behaviour with large prefixes, i.e. those
with many keys, removed or currently still available.

* Add a hard limit of 100k versions/deletions. For the reasoning see
neondatabase/cloud#8233 (comment)
, but TLDR it will roughly support tenants of 2 TiB size, of course
depending on general write activity and duration of the s3 retention
window. The goal is to have a limit at all so that the process doesn't
accumulate increasing numbers of versions until an eventual crash.
* Lower the RAM footprint for the `VerOrDelete` datastructure. This
means we now don't cache a lot of redundant metadata in RAM like the
owner ID. The top level datastructure's footprint goes down from 264
bytes to 80 (but it contains strings that are not counted in there).

## Problem

`pgvector` requires a patch to work well with Neon (a patch created by
@hlinnaka)

## Summary of changes
- Apply the patch to `pgvector`
## Problem
We currently can't create subscriptions in PG14 and PG15 because only
superusers can, and PG16 requires adding roles to
pg_create_subscription.

## Summary of changes
I added changes to PG14 and PG15 that allow neon_superuser to bypass the
superuser requirement. For PG16, I didn't do that but added a migration
that adds neon_superuser to pg_create_subscription. Also added a test to
make sure it works.
…ned by PS (tenant not found) (#6522)

## Problem

See https://neondb.slack.com/archives/C04DGM6SMTM/p1706531433057289

## Summary of changes

1. Do not decrease reconnect timeout until maximal interval value (1
second) is reached
2. Compute reconnect time after connection attempt is taken to exclude
connect time itself from the interval measurement.

So now backend should not perform more than 4 reconnect attempts per
second.
But please notice that backoff is performed locally in each backend and
so if there are many active backends,
then connection (and  so error) rate may be much higher.

Depends on: #6468

## Problem

The sharding service will be used as a "virtual pageserver" by the
control plane -- so it needs the set of pageserver APIs that the control
plane uses, and to present them under identical URLs, including prefix
(/v1).

## Summary of changes

- Add missing APIs:
  - Tenant deletion
  - Timeline deletion
  - Node list (used in test now, later in tools)
- `/location_config` API (for migrating tenants into the sharding
service)
- Rework attachment service URLs:
  - `/v1` prefix is used for pageserver-compatible APIs
- `/upcall/v1` prefix is used for APIs that are called by the pageserver
(re-attach and validate)
  - `/debug/v1` prefix is used for endpoints that are for testing
- `/control/v1` prefix is used for new sharding service APIs that do not
mimic a pageserver API, such as registering and configuring nodes.
- Add test_sharding_service. The sharding service already had some
collateral coverage from its use in general tests, but this is the first
dedicated testing for it.
## Summary of changes

Experiment with jemalloc in proxy
This removes the last remnants of the version param added by #5608 ,
concluding the transition plan laid out in
neondatabase/cloud#7553 (comment) .
It follows PR neondatabase/cloud#9202, which we
now assume has been deployed to all environments.

Full history:

Some tests which are unit test alike do not need to run on different pg
versions. Logging test is one of them which I found for unrelated
reasons.

## Problem

The `--path` argument is only used in testing, for compat tests that use
a JSON snapshot of state rather than the postgres database. In regular
deployments, it should be omitted (currently one has to specify `--path
""`)

## Summary of changes

Make `--path` optional.
## Problem

See neondatabase/cloud#8673

Fixes some duplication due to extra or misconfigured `#[instrument]`,
while filling in the `timeline_id` to delete timeline flow calls.
changes:
- two messages instead of message every second when gate was closing
- replace the gate name string by using a pointer
- slow GateGuards are likely to log who they were (see example)

example found in regress tests: <#6542 (comment)>
## Problem

Right now if get_role_secret response wasn't cached (e.g. cache already
reached max size) it will send the second (exactly the same request).

## Summary of changes

Avoid needless request.
This refactoring makes it easier to experimentally replace
BACKGROUND_RUNTIME with a single-threaded runtime. Found this useful
[during benchmarking](#6555).
Before this patch, pagebench was always showing the same value.

Author: Alexander Bayandin <alexander@neon.tech>
This includes a compatibility patch that is needed because pgvector
now skips WAL-logging during the index build, and WAL-logs the index
only in one go at the end. That's how GIN, GiST and SP-GIST index
builds work in core PostgreSQL too, but we need some Neon-specific
calls to mark the beginning and end of those build phases.

pgvector is the first index AM that does that with parallel workers,
so I had to modify those functions in the Neon extension to be aware
of parallel workers. Only the leader needs to create the underlying
file and perform the WAL-logging. (In principle, the parallel workers
could participate in the WAL-logging too, but pgvector doesn't do
that. This will need some further work if that changes).

The previous attempt at this (#6592) missed that parallel workers
needed those changes, and segfaulted in parallel build that spilled to
disk.

Testing
-------

We don't have a place for regression tests of extensions at the
moment. I tested this manually with the following script:

```
CREATE EXTENSION IF NOT EXISTS vector;

DROP TABLE IF EXISTS tst;
CREATE TABLE tst (i serial, v vector(3));

INSERT INTO tst (v) SELECT ARRAY[random(), random(), random()] FROM generate_series(1, 15000) g;

-- Serial build, in memory
ALTER TABLE tst SET (parallel_workers=0);
SET maintenance_work_mem='50 MB';
CREATE INDEX idx ON tst USING hnsw (v vector_l2_ops);

-- Test that the index works. (The table contents are random, and the
-- search is approximate anyway, so we cannot check the exact values.
-- For now, just eyeball that they look reasonable)
set enable_seqscan=off;
explain SELECT * FROM tst ORDER BY v <-> ARRAY[0, 0, 0]::vector LIMIT 5;
SELECT * FROM tst ORDER BY v <-> ARRAY[0, 0, 0]::vector LIMIT 5;

DROP INDEX idx;

-- Serial build, spills to on disk

ALTER TABLE tst SET (parallel_workers=0);
SET maintenance_work_mem='5 MB';
CREATE INDEX idx ON tst USING hnsw (v vector_l2_ops);
SELECT * FROM tst ORDER BY v <-> ARRAY[0, 0, 0]::vector LIMIT 5;
DROP INDEX idx;

-- Parallel build, in memory

ALTER TABLE tst SET (parallel_workers=4);
SET maintenance_work_mem='50 MB';
CREATE INDEX idx ON tst USING hnsw (v vector_l2_ops);
SELECT * FROM tst ORDER BY v <-> ARRAY[0, 0, 0]::vector LIMIT 5;
DROP INDEX idx;

-- Parallel build, spills to disk

ALTER TABLE tst SET (parallel_workers=4);
SET maintenance_work_mem='5 MB';
CREATE INDEX idx ON tst USING hnsw (v vector_l2_ops);
SELECT * FROM tst ORDER BY v <-> ARRAY[0, 0, 0]::vector LIMIT 5;
DROP INDEX idx;
```
Replace TODO with an existing implementation via `BufMut::writer``.

## Summary of changes
Fixed the typos found
The issue is still unsolved because of shmem size in VMs. Need to figure it out before applying this patch.

There is currently no cleanup done after a delta layer creation error,
so delta layers can accumulate. The problem gets worse as the operation
gets retried and delta layers accumulate on the disk. Therefore, delete
them from disk (if something has been written to disk).
