By making it independent of the number of units the view update
generator's registration semaphore is created with. We want to increase
this number significantly and that would destabilize this test
significantly. To prevent this, detach the test from the number of units
completely, while stil preserving the original intent behind it, as best
as it could be determined.
Closes#14727
This reverts commit d3034e0fab.
The test modified by this commit
(view_build_test.test_view_update_generator_register_semaphore_unit_leak)
often fails, breaking build jobs.
When repair writes a sstable to disk, we check if the sstable needs view
update processing. If yes, the sstable will be placed into the staging
dir for processing, with the _registration_sem semaphore to prevent too
many pending unprocessed sstables.
We have seen multiple cases in the field where view update processing is
inefficient and way too slow which blocks the base table repair to
finish on time.
This patch increases the registration_queue_size to a bigger number to
mitigate the problem that slow view update processing blocks repair.
It is better to have a consistent base table + inconsistent view table
than inconsistent base table + inconsistent view table.
Currently, sstables in staging dir are not compacted. So we could not
increase the _registration_sem with too big number to avoid accumulate
too many sstables.
The view_build_test.cc is updated to make the test pass.

Both services carry database which will be used by auxiliary objects
like view_updates, view_update_builder, consumer, etc in next patches.

Nowadays its a static helper, but internally it depends on storage
proxy, so it grabs its global instance. Making it a method of view
update generator makes it possible to use the proxy dependency from the
generator.

The database is low-level service and currently view update generator
implicitly depend on it via storage proxy. However, database does need
to push view updates with the help of mutate_MV helper, thus adding the
dependency loop.
This patch exploits the fact that view updates start being pushed late
enough, by that time all other service, including proxy and view update
generator, seem to be up and running. This allows a "weak dependency"
from database to view update generator, like there's one from database
to system keyspace already.
So in this patch the v.u.g. puts the shared-from-this pointer onto the
database at the time it starts. On stop it removes this pointer after
database is drained and (hopefully) all view updates are pushed.

The generator will be responsible for spreading view updates with the
help of mutate_MV helper. The latter needs storage proxy to operate, so
the generator gets this dependency in advance.
There's no need to change start/stop order at the moment, generator
already starts after and stops before proxy. Also, services that have
generator as dependency are not required by proxy (even indirectly) so
no circular dependency is produced at this point.

The initial intent was to reduce the fanout of shared_sstable.hh through
v.u.g.hh -> cql_test_env.hh chain, but it also resulted in some shots
around v.u.g.hh -> database.hh inclusion.
By and large:
- v.u.g.hh doesn't need database.hh
- cql_test_env.hh doesn't need v.u.g.hh (and thus -- the
shared_sstable.hh) but needs database.hh instead
- few other .cc files need v.u.g.hh directly as they pulled it via
cql_test_env.hh before
- add forward declarations in few other places

Today, we're completely blind about the progress of view updating
on Staging files. We don't know how long it will take, nor how much
progress we've made.
This patch adds visibility with a new metric that will inform
the number of bytes to be processed from Staging files.
Before any work is done, the metric tell us the total size to be
processed. As view updating progresses, the metric value is
expected to decrease, unless work is being produced faster than
we can consume them.
We're piggybacking on sstables::read_monitor, which allows the
progress metric to be updated whenever the SSTable reader makes
progress.

Instead of lengthy blurbs, switch to single-line, machine-readable
standardized (https://spdx.dev) license identifiers. The Linux kernel
switched long ago, so there is strong precedent.
Three cases are handled: AGPL-only, Apache-only, and dual licensed.
For the latter case, I chose (AGPL-3.0-or-later and Apache-2.0),
reasoning that our changes are extensive enough to apply our license.
The changes we applied mechanically with a script, except to
licenses/README.md.
Closes#9937
Move replica-oriented classes to the replica namespace. The main
classes moved are ::database, ::keyspace, and ::table, but a few
ancillary classes are also moved. There are certainly classes that
should be moved but aren't (like distributed_loader) but we have
to start somewhere.
References are adjusted treewide. In many cases, it is obvious that
a call site should not access the replica (but the data_dictionary
instead), but that is left for separate work.
scylla-gdb.py is adjusted to look for both the new and old names.
The database, keyspace, and table classes represent the replica-only
part of the objects after which they are named. Reading from a table
doesn't give you the full data, just the replica's view, and it is not
consistent since reconciliation is applied on the coordinator.
As a first step in acknowledging this, move the related files to
a replica/ subdirectory.
First, it's to fix the discarded future during the register. The
future is not actually such, as it's always the no-op ready one as
at that stage the view_update_generator is neither aborted nor is
in throttling state.
Second, this change is to keep database start-up code in main
shorter and cleaner. Registering staging sstables belongs to the
view_update_generator start code.

Every time db/config.hh is modified (e.g., to add a new configuration
option), 110 source files need to be recompiled. Many of those 110 didn't
really care about configuration options, and just got the dependency
accidentally by including some other header file.
In this patch, I remove the include of "db/config.hh" from all header
files. It is only needed in source files - and header files only
need forward declarations. In some cases, source files were missing
certain includes which they got incidentally from db/config.hh, so I
had to add these includes explicitly.
After this patch, the number of source files that get recompiled after a
change to db/config.hh goes down from 110 to 45.
It also means that 65 source files now compile faster because they don't
include db/config.hh and whatever it included.
Additionally, this patch also eliminates a few unnecessary inclusions
of database.hh in other header files, which can use a forward declaration
or database_fwd.hh. Some of the source files including one of those
header files relied on one of the many header files brought in by
database.hh, so we need to include those explicitly.
In view_update_generator.hh something interesting happened - it *needs*
database.hh because of code in the header file, but only included
database_fwd.hh, and the only reason this worked was that the files
including view_update_generator.hh already happened to unnecessarily
include database.hh. So we fix that too.

There is no reason to read a single SSTable at a time from the staging
directory. Moving SSTables from staging directory essentially involves
scanning input SSTables and creating new SSTables (albeit in a different
directory).
We have a mechanism that does that: compactions. In a follow up patch, I
will introduce a new specialization of compaction that moves SSTables
from staging (potentially compacting them if there are plenty).
In preparation for that, some signatures have to be changed and the
view_updating_consumer has to be more compaction friendly. Meaning:
- Operating with an sstable vector
- taking a table reference, not a database
Because this code is a bit fragile and the reviewer set is fundamentally
different from anything compaction related, I am sending this separately

The view_update_generator acceps (and keeps) database and storage_proxy,
the latter is only needed to initialize the view_updating_consumer which,
in turn, only needs it to get database from (to find column family).
This can be relaxed by providing the database from _generator to _consumer
directly, without using the storage_proxy in between.

By default, semaphore exceptions bring along very little context:
either that a semaphore was broken or that it timed out.
In order to make debugging easier without introducing significant
runtime costs, a notion of named semaphore is added.
A named semaphore is simply a semaphore with statically defined
name, which is present in its errors, bringing valuable context.
A semaphore defined as:
auto sem = semaphore(0);
will present the following message when it breaks:
"Semaphore broken"
However, a named semaphore:
auto named_sem = named_semaphore(0, named_semaphore_exception_factory{"io_concurrency_sem"});
will present a message with at least some debugging context:
"Semaphore broken: io_concurrency_sem"
It's not much, but it would really help in pinpointing bugs
without having to inspect core dumps.
At the same time, it does not incur any costs for normal
semaphore operations (except for its creation), but instead
only uses more CPU in case an error is actually thrown,
which is considered rare and not to be on the hot path.
