Instead of doing a deep copy of input, we keep assume ownership and build
rows of the views therein, potentially retaining fragmented data as-is
avoiding premature linearization.
Note that this is not all sugar and flowers though. Any data access will
by nature be more expensive, and the view collections we create are
potentially just as expensive as copying for small cells.
Otoh, it allows writing code using this that avoids data copying,
depending on destination.
v2:
* Fixed wrong collection reserved in visitor
* Changed row index from shared ptr to ref
* Moved typedef
* Removed non-existing constructors
* Added const ref to index build

Currently range scans build their result using the `reconcilable_result`
format and then convert it to `query::result`. This is inefficient for
multiple reasons:
1) it introduces an additional intermediate result format and a
subsequent conversion to the final one;
2) the reconcilable result format was designed for reconciliation so it
contains all data, including columns unselected by the query, dead
rows and tombstones, which takes much more memory to build;
There is no reason to go through all this trouble, if there ever was one
in the past it doesn't stand anymore. So switch to the newly introduced
`query_data_on_all_shards()` when doing normal data range scans, but
only if all the nodes in the cluster supports it, to avoid artificial
differences in page sizes due to how reconcilable result and
query::result calculates result size and the consequent false-positive
read repair.
The transition to this new more efficient method is coordinated by a
cluster feature and whether to use it is decided by the coordinator
(instead of each replica individually). This is to avoid needless
reconciliation due to the different page sizes the two formats will
produce.
So it can be modified while walked to dispatch
subscribed event notifications.
In #8143, there is a race between scylla shutdown and
notify_down(), causing use-after-free of cql_server.
Using an atomic vector itstead and futurizing
unregister_subscriber allows deleting from _lifecycle_subscribers

This series is extracted from #7913 as it may prove useful to other series as well, and #7913 might take a while until its merged, given that it also depends on other unmerged pull requests.
The idea of this series is to move timeouts to the client state, which will allow changing them independently for each session - e.g. by setting per-service-level timeouts and initializing the values from attached service levels (see #7867).

Currently, the sstable_set in a table is copied before every change
to allow accessing the unchanged version by existing sstable readers.
This patch changes the sstable_set to a structure that keeps all its
versions that are referenced somewhere and provides a way of getting
a reference to an immutable version of the set.
Each sstable in the set is associated with the versions it is alive in,
and is removed when all such versions don't have references anymore.
To avoid copying, the object holding all sstables in the set version is
changed to a new structure, sstable_list, which was previously an alias
for std::unordered_set<shared_sstable>, and which implements most of the
methods of an unordered_set, but its iterator uses the actual set with
all sstables from all referenced versions and iterates over those
sstables that belong to the captured version.
The methods that modify the sets contents give strong exception guarantee
by trying to insert new sstables to its containers, and erasing them in
the case of an caught exception.
To release shared_sstables as soon as possible (i.e. when all references
to versions that contain them die), each time a version is removed, all
sstables that were referenced exclusively by this version are erased. We
are able to find these sstables efficiently by storing, for each version,
all sstables that were added and erased in it, and, when a version is
removed, merging it with the next one. When a version that adds an sstable
gets merged with a version that removes it, this sstable is erased.

Currently all management of CDC generations happens in storage_service,
which is a big ball of mud that does many unrelated things.
Previous commits have introduced a new service for managing CDC
generations. This code moves most of the relevant code to this new
service.
However, some part still remains in storage_service: the bootstrap
procedure, which happens inside storage_service, must also do some
initialization regarding CDC generations, for example: on restart it
must retrieve the latest known generation timestamp from disk; on
bootstrap it must create a new generation and announce it to other
nodes. The order of these operations w.r.t the rest of the startup
procedure is important, hence the startup procedure is the only right
place for them.
Still, what remains in storage_service is a small part of the entire
CDC generation management logic; most of it has been moved to the
new service. This includes listening for generation changes and
updating the data structures for performing CDC log writes (cdc::metadata).
Furthermore these functions now return futures (and are internally
coroutines), where previously they required a seastar::async context.
Timeout config is now stored in each connection, so there's no point
in tracking it inside each query as well. This patch removes
timeout_config from query_options and follows by removing now
unnecessary parameters of many functions and constructors.
This commit introduces a new service crafted to handle CDC generation
management: listening and reacting to generation changes in the cluster.
The implementation is a stub for now, the service reacts to generation
changes by simply logging the event.
The commit plugs the service in, initializing it in main and test code,
passing a reference to storage_service and having storage_service start
the service (using the `after_join` method): the service only starts
doing its job after the node joins the token ring (either on bootstrap
or restart).
Nodes automatically ensure that the latest CDC generation's list of
streams is present in the streams description table. When a new
generation appears, we only need to update the table for this
generation; old generations are already inserted.
However, we've changed the description table (from
`cdc_streams_descriptions` to `cdc_streams_descriptions_v2`). The
existing mechanism only ensures that the latest generation appears in
the new description table. This commit adds an additional procedure that
rewrites the older generations as well, if we find that it is necessary
to do so (i.e. when some CDC log tables may contain data in these
generations).
Until now, the lists of streams in the `cdc_streams_descriptions` table
for a given generation were stored in a single collection. This solution
has multiple problems when dealing with large clusters (which produce
large lists of streams):
1. large allocations
2. reactor stalls
3. mutations too large to even fit in commitlog segments
This commit changes the schema of the table as described in issue #7993.
The streams are grouped according to token ranges, each token range
being represented by a separate clustering row. Rows are inserted in
reasonably large batches for efficiency.
The table is renamed to enable easy upgrade. On upgrade, the latest CDC
generation's list of streams will be (re-)inserted into the new table.
Yet another table is added: one that contains only the generation
timestamps clustered in a single partition. This makes it easy for CDC
clients to learn about new generations. It also enables an elegant
two-phase insertion procedure of the generation description: first we
insert the streams; only after ensuring that a quorum of replicas
contains them, we insert the timestamp. Thus, if any client observes a
timestamp in the timestamps table (even using a ONE query),
it means that a quorum of replicas must contain the list of streams.
It could happen that system_distributed_keyspace was used by
storage_service before it was fully started (inside
`handle_cdc_generation`), i.e. before sys_dist_ks' `start()` returned
(on shard 0). It only checked whether `local_is_initialized()` returns
true, so it only ensured that the service is constructed.
Currently, sys_dist_ks' `start` only announces migrations, so this was
mostly harmless. More concretely: it could result in the node trying to
send CQL requests using a table that it didn't yet recognize by calling
sys_dist_ks' methods before the `announce_migration` call inside `start`
has returned. This would result in an exception; however, the exception
would be catched by the caller and the procedure would be retried,
succeeding eventually. See `handle_cdc_generation` for details.
Still, the initial intention of the code was to wait for the sys_dist_ks
service to be fully started before it was used. This commit fixes that.
Commit aab6b0ee27 introduced the
controversial new IMR format, which relied on a very template-heavy
infrastructure to generate serialization and deserialization code via
template meta-programming. The promise was that this new format, beyond
solving the problems the previous open-coded representation had (working
on linearized buffers), will speed up migrating other components to this
IMR format, as the IMR infrastructure reduces code bloat, makes the code
more readable via declarative type descriptions as well as safer.
However, the results were almost the opposite. The template
meta-programming used by the IMR infrastructure proved very hard to
understand. Developers don't want to read or modify it. Maintainers
don't want to see it being used anywhere else. In short, nobody wants to
touch it.
This commit does a conceptual revert of
aab6b0ee27. A verbatim revert is not
possible because related code evolved a lot since the merge. Also, going
back to the previous code would mean we regress as we'd revert the move
to fragmented buffers. So this revert is only conceptual, it changes the
underlying infrastructure back to the previous open-coded one, but keeps
the fragmented buffers, as well as the interface of the related
components (to the extent possible).

Since fea5067df we enforce a limit on the memory consumption of
otherwise non-limited queries like reverse and non-paged queries. This
limit is sent down to the replicas by the coordinator, ensuring that
each replica is working with the same limit. This however doesn't work
in a mixed cluster, when upgrading from a version which doesn't have
this series. This has been worked around by falling back to the old
max_result_size constant of 1MB in mixed clusters. This however resulted
in a regression when upgrading from a pre fea5067df to a post fea5067df
one. Pre fea5067df already had a limit for reverse queries, which was
generalized to also cover non-paged ones too by fea5067df.
The regression manifested in previously working reverse queries being
aborted. This happened because even though the user has set a generous
limit for them before the upgrade, in the mix cluster replicas fall back
to the much stricter 1MB limit temporarily ignoring the configured limit
if the coordinator is an old node. This patch solves this problem by
using the locally configured limit instead of the max_result_size
constant. This means that the user has to take extra care to configure
the same limit on all replicas, but at least they will have working
reverse queries during the upgrade.

This series contains an initial implementation of raft persistency module
that uses `raft` system table as the underlying storage model.
"system.raft" table will be used as a backend storage for implementing
raft persistence module in Scylla. It combines both raft log,
persisted vote and term, and snapshot info.
The table is partitioned by group id, thus allowing multi-raft
operation. The rest of the table structure mirrors the fields of
corresponding core raft structures defined in `raft.hh`, such as
`raft::log_entry`.
The raft table stores the only the latest snapshot id while
the actual snapshot will be available in a separate table
called `system.raft_snapshots`. The schema of `raft_snapshots`
mirrors the fields of `raft::snapshot` structure.
IDL definitions are also added for every raft struct so that we
automatically provide serialization and deserialization facilities
needed both for persistency module and for future RPC implmementation.
The first patch is a side-change needed to provide complete
serialization/deserialization for `bytes_ostream`, which we
need when persisting the raft log in the table (since `data`
is a variant containing `raft::command` (aka `bytes_ostream`)
among others).
`bytes_ostream` was lacking `deserialize` function, which is
added in the patch.
The second patch provides serializer for `lw_shared_ptr<T>`
which will be used for `raft::append_entries`, which has
a field with `std::vector<const lw_shared_ptr<raft::log_entry>>`
type.
There is also a patch to extend `fragmented_temporary_buffer`
with a static function `allocate_to_fit` that allocates an
instance of the fragmented buffer that has a specified size.
Individual fragment size is limited to 128kb.
The patch-set also contains the test suite covering basic
functionality of the persistency module.

Currently the replacing node sets the status as STATUS_UNKNOWN when it
starts gossip service for the first time before it sets the status to
HIBERNATE to start the replacing operation. This introduces the
following race:
1) Replacing node using the same IP address of the node to be replaced
starts gossip service without setting the gossip STATUS (will be seen as
STATUS_UNKNOWN by other nodes)
2) Replacing node waits for gossip to settle and learns status and
tokens of existing nodes
3) Replacing node announces the HIBERNATE STATUS.
After Step 1 and before Step 3, existing nodes will mark the replacing
node as UP, but haven't marked the replacing node as doing replacing
yet. As a result, the replacing node will not be excluded from the read
replicas and will be considered a target node to serve CQL reads.

has to run nodetool cleanup to remove those data manually which is a
surprise to me and probably to users as well. With load and stream, the
process will delete the sstables once it finishes stream, so no nodetool
cleanup is needed.

The latter is needed to perform CDC-specific checks.
However it was noticed, that the check for the feature is excessive
