When reads arrive, they have to wait for admission on the reader
concurrency semaphore. If the node is overloaded, the reads will
be queued. They can time out while in the queue, but will not time
out once admitted.
Once the shard is sufficiently loaded, it is possible that most
queued reads will time out, because the average time it takes to
for a queued read to be admitted is around that of the timeout.
If a read times out, any work we already did, or are about to do
on it is wasted effort. Therefore, the patch tries to prevent it
by checking if an admitted read has a chance to complete in time
and abort it if not. It uses the following criteria:
if read's remaining time <= read's timeout when arrived to the semaphore * live updateable preemptive_abort_factor;
the read is rejected and the next one from the wait list is considered.

In fact, it's partially there already. When view_builder::start() is called is first calls initialization code (the start_in_background() method), then kicks do_build_step() that runs a background fiber to perform build steps. The starting code inherits scheduling group from main(). And the step fiber code needs to run itself in a maintenance scheduling group, so it explicitly grabs one via database->db_config.
This PR mainly gets rid of the call to database::get_streaming_scheduling_group() from do_build_step() as preparation to splitting the streaming scheduling group into parts (see SCYLLADB-351). To make it happen the do_build_step() is patched to inherit its scheduling group from view_builder::start() and the start() itself is called by main from maintenance scheduling group (like for other view building services).

view_builder: Start background in maintenance group
view_builder: Wake-up step fiber with condition variable
Currently view_builder::start() is called in default scheduling group.
Once it initializes itself, it wakes up the step fiber that explicitly
switches to maintenance scheduling group.
This explicit switch made sence before previous patch, when the fiber
was implemented as a serialized action. Now the fiber starts directly
from .start() method and can inherit scheduling group from it.
Said that, main code calls view_builder::start() in maintenance
scheduling group killing two birds with one stone. First, the step fiber
no longer needs borrow its scheduling group indirectly via database.
Second, the start_in_background() code itself runs in a more suitable
scheduling group.

View builder runs a background fiber that perform build steps. To kick
the fiber it uses serizlized action, but it's an overkill -- nobody
waits for the action to finish, but on stop, when it's joined.
This patch uses condition variable to kick the fiber, and starts it
instantly, in the place where serialized action was first kicked.

There are few places that use raft_group0_client as a way to get to system_keyspace. Mostly they can live without it -- either the needed reference is already at hand, or it's (ab)used to get to the database reference. The only place that really needs the system keyspace is the state merger code that needs last state ID. For that, the explicit helper method is added to group0_client.

Currently it grabs one from database, but it's not nice to use database
as config/sched-groups provider.
This PR passes the scheduling group to use for sending hints via manager
which, in turn, gets one from proxy via its config (proxy config already
carries configuration for hints manager). The group is initialized in
main.cc code and is set to the maintenance one (nowadays it's the same
as streaming group).
This will help splitting the streaming scheduling group into more
elaborated groups under the maintenance supergroup: SCYLLADB-351

db: view: refactor semaphore usage in create/drop view paths
Refactor the construction and usage of semaphore units in the create and drop view flows.
The previous semaphore handling was hard to follow (as noted while working on https://github.com/scylladb/scylladb/pull/27929), so this change restructures unit creation and movement to follow a clearer and symmetric pattern across shards.
The semaphore usage model is now documented with a detailed in-code comment to make the intended behavior and invariants explicit.
As part of the refactor, the control flow is modernized by replacing continuation-based logic with coroutine-style code, improving readability and maintainability.

In 8df61f6d99 we changed the requirements for creating materialized
views and MV-based indexes - instead of requiring the
rf_rack_valid_keyspaces flag to be set, we now require the keyspace to
be RF-rack-valid at the time of creation, and it is enforced to remain
RF-rack-valid while the MV exists. This validation is done in the cql
create view/index statements.
The same should be done also for alternator - when creating a table with
GSI or LSI, or when adding a GSI to an existing table, previously we
required the flag rf_rack_valid_keyspaces to be set. Now we change it to
instead check if the keyspace is RF-rack-valid, and if not the operation
fails with an appropriate error.

When read or write operations are performed on a DC with RF=0 with LOCAL_QUORUM
or LOCAL_ONE consistency level, Cassandra throws `Unavailable` exception.
Scylla allowed such read operations and failed write operations with a cryptic:
"broken promise" error. This occured because the initial availability
check passed (quorum of 0 requires 0 replicas), but execution failed
later when no replicas existed to process the mutation.
This patch adds an explicit RF=0 validation for LOCAL_ONE and LOCAL_QUORUM that
throws before attempting operation execution.
The change also requires `test_query_dc_with_rf_0_does_not_crash_db` to be
upgraded. This testcase was asserting somewhat similar scenario, but wasn't
taking into account the whole matrix of combinations:
- scenarios: successful vs unsuccesful operation outcome
- local consistency levels: LOCAL_QUORUM & LOCAL_ONE
- operations: SELECT (read) & INSERT (write)
and so it's been extended to cover both the pre-existing and the current issues
and the whole matrix of combinations.

In this PR we add a basic implementation of the strongly-consistent tables:
* generate raft group id when a strongly-consistent table is created
* persist it into system.tables table
* start raft groups on replicas when a strongly-consistent tablet_map reaches them
* add strongly-consistent version of the storage_proxy, with the `query` and `mutate` methods
* the `mutate` method submits a command to the tablets raft group, the query method reads the data with `raft.read_barrier()`
* strongly-consistent versions of the `select_statement` and `modification_statement` are added
* a basic `test_strong_consistency.py/test_basic_write_read` is added which to check that we can write and read data in a strongly consistent fashion.
Limitations:
* for now the strongly consistent tables can have tablets only on shard zero. This is because we (ab/re) use the existing raft system tables which live only on shard0. In the next PRs we'll create separate tables for the new tablets raft groups.
* No Scylla-side proxying - the test has to figure out who is the leader and submit the command to the right node. This will be fixed separately.
* No tablet balancing -- migration/split/merges require separate complicated code.
The new behavior is hidden behind `STRONGLY_CONSISTENT_TABLES` feature, which is enabled when the `STRONGLY_CONSISTENT_TABLES` experimental feature flag is set.

The function assert_rf_rack_valid_keyspace uses the exception type
std::invalid_argument when the RF-rack validation fails. Document it and
change all callers to catch this specific exception type when checking
for RF-rack validation failures, so that other exception types can be
propagated properly.
Allows other topology operations to execute while tablets are being
drained on decommission. In particular, bootstrap on scale-out. This
is important for elasticity.
Allows multiple decommission/removenode to happen in parallel, which
is important for efficiency.
Flow of decommission/removenode request:
1) pending and paused, has tablet replicas on target node.
Tablet scheduler will start draining tablets.
2) No tablets on target node, request is pending but not paused
3) Request is scheduled, node is in transition
4) Request is done
Nodes are considered draining as soon as there is a leave or remove
request on them. If there are tablet replicas present on the target
node, the request is in a paused state and will not be picked by
topology coordinator. The paused state is computed from topology state
automatically on reload.
When request is not paused, its execution starts in
write_both_read_old state. The old tablet_draining state is not
entered (it's deprecated now).
Tablet load balancing will yield the state machine as soon as some
request is no longer paused and ready to be scheduled, based on
standard preemption mechanics.

Revert "alternator: require rf_rack_valid_keyspaces when creating index"
In PR 5b6570be52 we introduced the config option `sstable_compression_user_table_options` to allow adjusting the default compression settings for user tables. However, the new option was hooked into the CQL layer and applied only to CQL base tables, not to the whole spectrum of user tables: CQL auxiliary tables (materialized views, secondary indexes, CDC log tables), Alternator base tables, Alternator auxiliary tables (GSIs, LSIs, Streams).
This gap also led to inconsistent default compression algorithms after we changed the option’s default algorithm from LZ4 to LZ4WithDicts (adf9c426c2).
This series introduces a general “schema initializer” mechanism in `schema_builder` and uses it to apply the default compression settings uniformly across all user tables. This ensures that all base and aux tables take their default compression settings from config.
Fixes#26914.
Backport justification: LZ4WithDicts is the new default since 2025.4, but the config option exists since 2025.2. Based on severity, I suggest we backport only to 2025.4 to maintain consistency of the defaults.

Cassandra changed their system tables in 3.0. We migrated to the new system table layout in 2017, in ScyllaDB 2.0.
System tables introduced in Cassandra 3.0, as well as the 3.0 variant of pre-existing system tables were added to the db::system_table::v3 namespace.
We ended up adding some new ScyllaDB-only system tables to this namespace as well.
As the dust settled, most of the v3 system tables ended up being either simple aliases to non-v3 tables, or new tables.
Either way, the codebase uses just one variant of each table for a long time now the v3:: distinction is pointless.

Move these out of the v3 keyspace too, with this the v3 keyspace is

The name variables of these tables is outside the v3 namespace but the

methods out from the v3 namespace, to the scope where the name variables
live.
The methods are moved to the private: part of system_keyspace, as they
don't have external users currently.
Those table names that are effectively just an alias of the their
counterpart outside of the v3 namespace (struct).
scylla_local() is made public. Currently it is private, but it has
external users, working around the private designation by using the
public v3::scylla_local() alias. This change just makes the existing
status clear.
Continuing the read once it is aborted (e.g. due to timeout) is a waste
of resources, as the produced results will be discarded.
Poll the permit's abort exception in the memtable and cache reader's
fill_buffer(). This results in one poll per buffer filled (8KB of data).
We already have similar poll for sstable readers, as disk reads are
usually much heavier and therefore it is more important to stop them
ASAP after abort. Cache and memtable reads are usually quick but not
always, hence it is important to also have polling in the cache and
memtable readers.

No modifications to existing tests are made here, so old format is respected correctly (as far as it's covered by tests). To prove the new format works the the test_get_object_store_endpoints is extended to validate both options.

A replaced node may have pending operation on it. The replace operation
will move the node into the 'left' state and the request will never be
completed. More over the code does not expect left node to have a
request. It will try to process the request and will crash because the
node for the request will not be found.
The patch checks is the replaced node has peening request and completes
it with failure. It also changes topology loading code to skip requests
for nodes that are in a left state. This is not strictly needed, but
makes the code more robust.

The `sstable_compression_user_table_options` config option determines
the default compression settings for user tables.
In patch 2fc812a1b9, the default value of this option was changed from
LZ4 to LZ4WithDicts and a fallback logic was introduced during startup
to temporarily revert the option to LZ4 until the dictionary compression
feature is enabled.
Replace this fallback logic with an accessor that returns the correct
settings depending on the feature flag. This is cleaner and more
consistent with the way we handle the `sstable_format` option, where the
same problem appears (see `get_preferred_sstable_version()`).
As a consequence, the configuration option must always be accessed
through this accessor. Add a comment to point this out.
