For tables of special types that can be located: MV, CDC, and paxos
table, we should not use tombstone_gc=repair mode because colocated
tablets are never repaired, hence they will not have repair_time set and
will never be GC'd using 'repair' mode.

Ensure that the CDC used by Vector Search has at least 24h TTL
and delta mode is set to 'full' or postimage is enabled.
This setup is required by the Vector Store to work as intended.
The TTL of at least 24h is a rough estimate of the maximal time
needed for the full scan conducted by Vector Store to finish.
The delta mode set to 'full' or postimage enabled is needed
to read the values of vectors being written to the table,
so Vector Store can save them in the desired external index.
As the default we set TTL = 24h, delta = 'full', postimage = false.
Full delta is preffered option to log the vector values as it is less
costly and does not require additional read on write.
When CDC becomes disabled on the base table, the CDC log table
still exsits (cf. scylladb/scylladb@adda43edc7).
If it continues to exist up to the point when CDC is re-enabled
on the base table, no new log table will be created -- instead,
the old olg table will be *re-attached*.
Since we want to avoid situations when the definition of the log
table has become misaligned with the definition of the base table
due to actions of the user, we forbid modifying the set of columns
or renaming them in CDC log tables, even when they're inactive.
Validation tests are provided.
The set of columns of a CDC log table should be managed automatically
by Scylla, and the user should not have the ability to manipulate them
directly. That could lead to disastrous consequences such as a
segmentation fault.
In this commit, we're restricting those operations. We also provide two
validation tests.
One of the existing tests had to be adjusted as it modified the type
of a column in a CDC log table. Since the test simply verifies that
the user has sufficient permissions to perform `ALTER TABLE` on the log
table, the test is still valid.

Currently, the base_info may or may not be set in view schemas.
Even when it's set, it may be modified. This necessitates extra
checks when handling view schemas, as well as potentially causing
errors when we forget to set it at some point.
Instead, we want to make the base info an immutable member of view
schemas (inside view_info). The first step towards that is making
sure that all newly created schemas have the base info set.
We achieve that by requiring a base schema when constructing a view
schema. Unfortunately, this adds complexity each time we're making
a view schema - we need to get the base schema as well.
In most cases, the base schema is already available. The most
problematic scenario is when we create a schema from mutations:
- when parsing system tables we can get the schema from the
database, as regular tables are parsed before views
- when loading a view schema using the schema loader tool, we need
to load the base additionally to the view schema, effectively
doubling the work
- when pulling the schema from another node - in this case we can
only get the current version of the base schema from the local
database
Additionally, we need to consider the base schema version - when
we generate view updates the version of the base schema used for
reads should match the version of the base schema in view's base
info.
This is achieved by selecting the correct (old or new) schema in
`db::schema_tables::merge_tables_and_views` and using the stored
base schema in the schema_registry.
When we rename columns in a table which has materialized views depending
on it, we need to also rename them in the materialized views' WHERE
clauses.
Currently, we do that by creating a new WHERE clause after each rename,
with the updated column. This is later converted to a mutation that
overwrites the WHERE clause. After multiple renames, we have multiple
mutations, each overwriting the WHERE clause with one column renamed.
As a result, the final WHERE clause is one of the modified clauses with
one column renamed.
Instead, we should prepare one new WHERE clause which includes all the
renamed columns. This patch accomplishes this by processing all the
column renames first, and only preparing the new view schema with the
new WHERE clause afterwards.
This patch also includes a test reproducer for this scenario.

As discussed in

compact storage tables are deprecated.
Yet, there's is nothing in the code that prevents users
from creating such tables.
This patch adds a live-updateable config option:
`enable_create_table_with_compact_storage` that require users
to opt-in in order to create new tables WITH COMPACT STORAGE.
The option is currently set to `true` by default in db/config
to reduce the churn to tests and to `false` in scylla.yaml,
for new clusters.
TODO: once regressions tests that use compact storage
are converted to enable the option, change the default in
db/config to false.
A unit test was added to test/cql-pytest that
checks that the respective cql query fails as expected
with the default option or when it is explicitly set to `false`,
and that the query succeeds when the option is set to `true`.
Note that `check_restricted_table_properties` already
returns an optional warning, but it is only logged
but not returned in the `prepared_statement`.
Fixing that is out of the scope of this patch.

- use `fmt::join()` when appropriate where `boost::algorithm::join()`
is not applicable to a range view returned by `std::view::transform`.
- use `std::ranges::fold_left()` to accumulate the range returned by
`std::view::transform`
- use `std::ranges::fold_left()` to get the maximum element in the
range returned by `std::view::transform`
- use `std::ranges::min()` to get the minimal element in the range
returned by `std::view::transform`
- use `std::ranges::equal()` to compare the range views returned
by `std::view::transform`
- remove unused `#include <boost/range/adaptor/transformed.hpp>`
- use `std::ranges::subrange()` instead of `boost::make_iterator_range()`,
to feed `std::views::transform()` a view range.

Modernize the codebase by replacing Boost range adaptors with C++23 standard library views,
reducing external dependencies and leveraging modern C++ language features.
Key Changes:
- Replace `boost::adaptors::filtered` with `std::views::filter`
- Remove `#include <boost/range/adaptor/filtered.hpp>`
- Utilize standard library range views
Motivation:
- Reduce project's external dependency footprint
- Leverage standard library's range and view capabilities
- Improve long-term code maintainability
- Align with modern C++ best practices
Implementation Challenges and Considerations:
1. Range Conversion and Move Semantics
- `std::ranges::to` adaptor requires rvalue references
- Necessitated updates to variable and parameter constness
- Example: `cql3/restrictions/statement_restrictions.cc` modified to remove `const`
from `common` to enable efficient range conversion
2. Range Iteration and Mutation
- Range views may mutate internal state during iteration
- Cannot pass ranges by const reference in some scenarios
- Solution: Pass ranges by rvalue reference to explicitly indicate
state invalidation
Limitations:
- One instance of `boost::adaptors::filtered` temporarily preserved
due to lack of a C++23 alternative for `boost::join()`
- A comprehensive replacement will be addressed in a follow-up change

Closesscylladb/scylladb#21191
To reduce dependency load, use std ranges instead of boost ranges.
The std::ranges::{lower,upper}_bound don't support heterogeneous lookup,
but a more natural solution is to use a projection to search for the name,
so we use that and the custom comparator is removed.
Many callers are converted as well due to poor interoperability between
boost ranges and std ranges.
before this change, we rely on `using namespace seastar` to use
`seastar::format()` without qualifying the `format()` with its
namespace. this works fine until we changed the parameter type
of format string `seastar::format()` from `const char*` to
`fmt::format_string<...>`. this change practically invited
`seastar::format()` to the club of `std::format()` and `fmt::format()`,
where all members accept a templated parameter as its `fmt`
parameter. and `seastar::format()` is not the best candidate anymore.
despite that argument-dependent lookup (ADT for short) favors the
function which is in the same namespace as its parameter, but
`using namespace` makes `seastar::format()` more competitive,
so both `std::format()` and `seastar::format()` are considered
as the condidates.
that is what is happening scylladb in quite a few caller sites of
`format()`, hence ADT is not able to tell which function the winner
in the name lookup:
```

143 | format(fmt::format_string<A...> fmt, A&&... a) {

```
in this change, we
change all `format()` to either `fmt::format()` or `seastar::format()`
with following rules:
- if the caller expects an `sstring` or `std::string_view`, change to
`seastar::format()`
- if the caller expects an `std::string`, change to `fmt::format()`.
because, `sstring::operator std::basic_string` would incur a deep
copy.
we will need another change to enable scylladb to compile with the
latest seastar. namely, to pass the format string as a templated
parameter down to helper functions which format their parameters.
to miminize the scope of this change, let's include that change when
bumping up the seastar submodule. as that change will depend on

A dialect is a different way to interpret the same CQL statement.
Examples:
- how duplicate bind variable names are handled (later in this series)
- whether `column = NULL` in LWT can return true (as is now) or
whether it always returns NULL (as in SQL)
Currently, dialect is an empty structure and will be filled in later.
It is passed to query_processor methods that also accept a CQL string,
and from there to the parser. It is part of the prepared statement cache
key, so that if the dialect is changed online, previous parses of the
statement are ignored and the statement is prepared again.
The patch is careful to pick up the dialect at the entry point (e.g.
CQL protocol server) so that the dialect doesn't change while a statement
is parsed, prepared, and cached.
assert() is traditionally disabled in release builds, but not in
scylladb. This hasn't caused problems so far, but the latest abseil
release includes a commit [1] that causes a 1000 insn/op regression when
NDEBUG is not defined.
Clearly, we must move towards a build system where NDEBUG is defined in
release builds. But we can't just define it blindly without vetting
all the assert() calls, as some were written with the expectation that
they are enabled in release mode.
To solve the conundrum, change all assert() calls to a new SCYLLA_ASSERT()
macro in utils/assert.hh. This macro is always defined and is not conditional
on NDEBUG, so we can later (after vetting Seastar) enable NDEBUG in release
mode.

* the "thrift_version" column in system.local table is

In order to correctly restore schema from `DESC SCHEMA WITH INTERNALS`, we need a way to drop a column with a timestamp in the past.
Example:
- table t(a int pk, b int)
- insert some data1
- drop column b
- add column b int
- insert some data2
If the sstables weren't compacted, after restoring the schema from description:
- we will loss column b in data2 if we simply do `ALTER TABLE t DROP b` and `ALTER TABLE t ADD b int`
- we will resurrect column b in data1 if we skip dropping and re-adding the column

Until now, alter table couldn't take any parameter marker, so the bound
terms were always 0.
Adding `USING TIMESTAMP` to `ALTER TABLE ... DROP` also adds possibility
to prepare a alter table statement with a paramenter marker.
Currently alter table doesn't prepare any parameters so raw statement
and prepared one could be the same class.
Later commit will add attributes to the statement, which needs to be
prepared, that's why I'm splitting.
Currently, if tombstone_gc mode isn't specified for a table,
then "timeout" is used by default. With tablets, running
"nodetool repair -pr" may miss a tablet if it migrated across
the nodes. Then, if we expire tombstones for ranges that
weren't repaired, we may get data resurrection.
Set default tombstone_gc mode value for DDLs that don't
specify it. It's set to "repair" for tables which use tablets
unless they use local replication strategy or rf = 1.
Otherwise it's set to "timeout".
Table properties validation is performed on statement execution.
Thus, when one attempts to create a table with invalid options,
an incorrect command gets committed in Raft. But then its
application fails, leading to a raft machine being stopped.
Check table properties when create and alter statements are prepared.
The error is no longer returned as an exceptional future, but it
is thrown. Adjust the tests accordingly.
Pass data_dictionary::database to check_restricted_table_properties
as an arguemnt instead of query_processor as the method will be called

Currently we hold group0_guard only during DDL statement's execute()
function, but unfortunately some statements access underlying schema
state also during check_access() and validate() calls which are called
by the query_processor before it calls execute. We need to cover those
calls with group0_guard as well and also move retry loop up. This patch
does it by introducing new function to cql_statement class take_guard().
Schema altering statements return group0 guard while others do not
return any guard. Query processor takes this guard at the beginning of a

After changing the prepare_ methods of migration_manager to
functions, the migration_manager& parameter of
schema_altering_statement::prepare_schema_mutations has been
unused by all classes inheriting from schema_altering_statement.
The migration_manager service is responsible for schema convergence
in the cluster - pushing schema changes to other nodes and pulling
schema when a version mismatch is observed. However, there is also
a part of migration_manager that doesn't really belong there -
creating mutations for schema updates. These are the functions with
prepare_ prefix. They don't modify any state and don't exchange any
messages. They only need to read the local database.
We take these functions out of migration_manager and make them
separate functions to reduce the dependency of other modules
(especially query_processor and CQL statements) on
migration_manager. Since all of these functions only need access
to storage_proxy (or even only replica::database), doing such a
refactor is not complicated. We just have to add one parameter,
either storage_proxy or database and both of them are easily
accessible in the places where these functions are called.
Checking keyspace/table presence should not be part of authorization code
and it is not done consistently today. For instance keyspace presence
is not checked in "alter keyspace" during authorization, but during
statement execution. Make it consistent.
We want to stop relying on `qp.get_migration_manager()`, so we can make
the function private in the future. This in turn is a prerequisite for
splitting `query_processor` initialization into two phases, where the
first phase will only allow local queries (and won't require
`migration_manager`).
Validation of a CREATE MATERIALIZED VIEW statement takes place inside
the prepare_schema_mutations() method.
I would like to generate warnings during this validation, but there's
currently no way to pass them.
Let's add one more return value - a vector of CQL warnings generated
during the execution of this statement.
A new alias is added to make it clear what the function is returning:
```c++
// A vector of CQL warnings generated during execution of a statement.
using cql_warnings_vec = std::vector<sstring>;
```
Later the warnings will be sent to the user by the function
schema_altering_statment::execute(), which is the only caller
of prepare_schema_mutations().

there is not need to revent the wheel. so in this change, the homebrew
join() is replaced with fmt::join().
as fmt::join() returns an join_view(), this could improve the
performance under certain circumstances where the fully materialized
string is not needed.
please note, the goal of this change is to use fmt::join(), and this
change does not intend to improve the performance of existing
implementation based on "operator<<" unless the new implementation is
much more complicated. we will address the unnecessarily materialized
strings in a follow-up commit.
some noteworthy things related to this change:
* unlike the existing `join()`, `fmt::join()` returns a view. so we
have to materialize the view if what we expect is a `sstring`
* `fmt::format()` does not accept a view, so we cannot pass the
return value of `fmt::join()` to `fmt::format()`
* fmtlib does not format a typed pointer, i.e., it does not format,
for instance, a `const std::string*`. but operator<<() always print
a typed pointer. so if we want to format a typed pointer, we either
need to cast the pointer to `void*` or use `fmt::ptr()`.
* fmtlib is not able to pick up the overload of
`operator<<(std::ostream& os, const column_definition* cd)`, so we
have to use a wrapper class of `maybe_column_definition` for printing
a pointer to `column_definition`. since the overload is only used
by the two overloads of
`statement_restrictions::add_single_column_parition_key_restriction()`,
the operator<< for `const column_definition*` is dropped.

As check_restricted_table_properties() is invoked both within CREATE TABLE and ALTER TABLE CQL statements,
we currently have no way to determine whether the operation was either a CREATE or ALTER. In many situations,
it is important to be able to distinguish among both operations, such as - for example - whether a table already has
a particular property set or if we are defining it within the statement.
This patch simply adds a std::optional<schema_ptr> to check_restricted_table_properties() and updates its caller.
Whenever a CREATE TABLE statement is issued, the method is called as a std::nullopt, whereas if an ALTER TABLE is
issued instead, we call it with a schema_ptr.
This property can be used with CREATE MATERIALIZED VIEW and ALTER
MATERIALIZED VIEW statements. Setting it allows global views to enter
"synchronous mode". In this mode, all view updates are also applied
synchronously as if the view was local. This may reduce their
availability, but has the benefit of propagating a potential
inconsistency risk (in form of a write error) to the user, who can
respond to it appropriately (e.g. retry the write or fix the view
later).

The functions which prepare schema change mutations (such as
`prepare_new_column_family_announcement`) would use internally
generated timestamps for these mutations. When schema changes are
managed by group 0 we want to ensure that timestamps of mutations
applied through Raft are monotonic. We will generate these timestamps at
call sites and pass them into the `prepare_` functions. This commit
prepares the APIs.
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),

The gc_grace_seconds is a very fragile and broken design inherited from
Cassandra. Deleted data can be resurrected if cluster wide repair is not
performed within gc_grace_seconds. This design pushes the job of making
the database consistency to the user. In practice, it is very hard to
guarantee repair is performed within gc_grace_seconds all the time. For
example, repair workload has the lowest priority in the system which can
be slowed down by the higher priority workload, so that there is no
guarantee when a repair can finish. A gc_grace_seconds value that is
used to work might not work after data volume grows in a cluster. Users
might want to avoid running repair during a specific period where
latency is the top priority for their business.
To solve this problem, an automatic mechanism to protect data
resurrection is proposed and implemented. The main idea is to remove the
tombstone only after the range that covers the tombstone is repaired.
In this patch, a new table option tombstone_gc is added. The option is
used to configure tombstone gc mode. For example:
1) GC a tombstone after gc_grace_seconds
cqlsh> ALTER TABLE ks.cf WITH tombstone_gc = {'mode':'timeout'} ;
This is the default mode. If no tombstone_gc option is specified by the
user. The old gc_grace_seconds based gc will be used.
2) Never GC a tombstone
cqlsh> ALTER TABLE ks.cf WITH tombstone_gc = {'mode':'disabled'};
3) GC a tombstone immediately
cqlsh> ALTER TABLE ks.cf WITH tombstone_gc = {'mode':'immediate'};
4) GC a tombstone after repair
cqlsh> ALTER TABLE ks.cf WITH tombstone_gc = {'mode':'repair'};
In addition to the 'mode' option, another option 'propagation_delay_in_seconds'
is added. It defines the max time a write could possibly delay before it
eventually arrives at a node.
A new gossip feature TOMBSTONE_GC_OPTIONS is added. The new tombstone_gc
option can only be used after the whole cluster supports the new
feature. A mixed cluster works with no problem.
