We make the `consistent-topology-changes` experimental feature
unused and assumed to be true in 6.0. We remove code branches that
executed if `consistent-topology-changes` was disabled.
Currently, the tests in test/cql-pytest can be run against both ScyllaDB and Cassandra.
Running the test for either will first output the test results, and subsequently
print the stdout output of the process under test. Using the command line
option --omit-scylla-output it is possible to disable this print for Scylla,
but it is not possible for tests run against Cassandra.
This change adds the option to suppress output for Cassandra tests, too. By default,
the stdout of the Cassandra run will still be printed after the test results, but
this can now be disabled with --omit-scylla-output

All cql-pytest tests use one node, and unsuprisingly most use RF=1.
By default, as part of the "guardrails" feature, we print a warning
when creating a keyspace with RF=1. This warning gets printed on
every cql-pytest run, which creates a "boy who cried wolf" effect
whereby developers get used to seeing these warnings, and won't care
if new warnings start appearing.
The fix is easy - in run.py start Scylla with minimum-replication-factor-
warn-threshold set to -1 instead of the default 3.
Note that we do have cql-pytest tests for this guardrail, but those don't
rely on the default setting of this variable (they can't, cql-pytest
tests can also be run on a Scylla instance run manually by a developer).
Those tests temporarily set the threshold during the test.

When running on a particularly slow setup, for example on
an ARM machine in debug mode, the execution time of even
a small Lua UDF that we're using in tests may exceed our
default limits.
To avoid timeout errors, the limit in tests is now increased
to a value that won't be exceeded in any reasonable scenario
(for the current set of tested UDFs), while not making the
test take an excessive amount of time in case of an error in
the UDF execution.

When running some pytest-based tests they start scylla binary by hand
instead of relying on test.py's "clusters". In automatic run (e.g. via
test.py itself) the correct scylla binary is the one pointed to by
SCYLLA environment, but when run from shell via pytest directly it tries
to be smart and looks at build/*/scylla binaries picking the one with
the greatest mtime.
That guess is not very nice, because if the developer switches between
build modes with configure.py and rebuilds binaries, binaries from
"older" or "previous" builds stay on the way and confuse the guessing
code. It's better to be explicit.

Today, test/*/run always kills Scylla at the end of the test with
SIGKILL (kill -9), so the Scylla shutdown code doesn't run. It was
believed that a clean shutdown would take a long time, but in fact,
it turns out that 99% of the shutdown time was a silly sleep in the
gossip code, which this patch disables with the "--shutdown-announce-in-ms"
option.
After enabling this option, clean shutdown takes (in a dev build on
my laptop) just 0.02 seconds. It's worth noting that this shutdown
has no real work to do - no tables to flush, and so on, because the
pytest framework removes all the tables in its own fixture cleanup
phase.
So in this patch, to kill Scylla we use SIGTERM (15) instead of SIGKILL.
We then wait until a timeout of 10 seconds (much much more than 0.02
seconds!) for Scylla to exit. If for some reason it didn't exit (e.g.,
it hung during the shutdown), it is killed again with SIGKILL, which
is guaranteed to succed.
This change gives us two advantages
1. Every test run with test/*/run exercises the shutdown path. It is perhaps
excessive, but since the shutdown is so quick, there is no big downside.
2. In a test-coverage run, a clean shutdown allows flushing the counter
files, which wasn't possible when Scylla was killed with KILL -9.

Scylla's output is often unnecessary to debug a failed test, or even
detrimental because one has to scroll back in the terminal after each
test run, to see the actual test's output. Add an option,
--omit-scylla-output, which when present on the command line of `run`,
the output of scylla will be omitted from the test output.
Also, to help discover this option (and others), don't run the tests
when either -h or --help is present on the command line. Just invoke
pytest (with said option) and exit.
IS NOT NULL shouldn't be allowed on columns
which are outside of the materialized view's primary key.
It's currently allowed to create views with such restrictions,
but they're silently ignored, it's a bug.
In the following commits restricting regular columns
with IS NOT NULL will be forbidden.
This is a breaking change.
Some users might have existing code that creates
views with such restrictions, we don't want to break it.
To deal with this a new feature flag is introduced:
strict_is_not_null_in_views.
By default it's set to `warn`. If a user tries to create
a view with such invalid restrictions they will get a warning
saying that this is invalid, but the query will still go through,
it's just a warning.
The default value in scylla.yaml will be `true`. This way new clusters
will have strict enforcement enabled and they'll throw errors when the
user tries to create such an invalid view,
Old clusters without the flag present in scylla.yaml will
have the flag set to warn, so they won't break on an update.
There's also the option to set the flag to `false`. It's dangerous,
as it silences information about a bug, but someone might want it
to silence the warnings for a moment.

The facilities in run.py script allow launching scylla over temporary
directory, waiting for it to come alive, killing, etc. The limitation of
those is that the work-dir create for scylla is tighly coupled with its
pid. The object-storage test in next patches will need to check that the
sstables are preserved on scylla restart and this hard binding of
workdir to pid won't work.
This patch generalizes the scylla run/abort helpers to accept an
external directory to work on and adds a call to restart scylla process
over existing directory.
And one small related change here -- log file is opened in O_APPEND mode
so that restarted scylla process continues writing into the old file.

This patch increases the connection timeout in the get_cql_cluster()
function in test/cql-pytest/run.py. This function is used to test
that Scylla came up, and also test/alternator/run uses it to set
up the authentication - which can only be done through CQL.
The Python driver has 2-second and 5-second default timeouts that should
have been more than enough for everybody (TM), but in #13239 we saw
that in one case it apparently wasn't enough. So to be extra safe,
let's increase the default connection-related timeouts to 60 seconds.
Note this change only affects the Scylla *boot* in the test/*/run
scripts, and it does not affect the actual tests - those have different
code to connect to Scylla (see cql_session() in test/cql-pytest/util.py),
and we already increased the timeouts there in #11289.

Before this patch, all scripts which use test/cql-pytest/run.py
looked for the Scylla executable as their first step. This is usually
the right thing to do, except in two cases where Scylla is *not* needed:
1. The script test/cql-pytest/run-cassandra.
2. The script test/alternator/run with the "--aws" option.
So in this patch we change run.py to only look for Scylla when actually
needed (the find_scylla() function is called). In both cases mentioned
above, find_scylla() will never get called and the script can work even
if Scylla was never built.

Commitlog O_DSYNC is intended to make Raft and schema writes durable
in the face of power loss. To make O_DSYNC performant, we preallocate
the commitlog segments, so that the commitlog writes only change file
data and not file metadata (which would require the filesystem to commit
its own log).
However, in tests, this causes each ScyllaDB instance to write 384MB
of commitlog segments. This overloads the disks and slows everything
down.
Fix this by disabling O_DSYNC (and therefore preallocation) during
the tests. They can't survive power loss, and run with
--unsafe-bypass-fsync anyway.

In the past we had issue #7933 where very long strings of consecutive
tombstones caused Alternator's paging to take an unbounded amount of
time and/or memory for a single page. This issue was fixed (by commit
e9cbc9ee85) but the two tests we had
reproducing that issue were left with the "xfail" mark.
They were also marked "veryslow" - each taking about 100 seconds - so
they didn't run by default so nobody noticed they started to pass.
In this patch I make these tests much faster (taking less than a second
together), confirm that they pass - and remove the "xfail" mark and
improve their descriptions.
The trick to making these tests faster is to not create a million
tombstones like we used to: We now know that after string of just 10,000
tombstones ('query_tombstone_page_limit') the page should end, so
we can check specifically this number. The story is more complicated for
partition tombstones, but there too it should be a multiple of
query_tombstone_page_limit. To make the tests even faster, we change
run.py to lower the query_tombstone_page_limit from the default 10,000
to 1000. The tests work correctly even without this change, but they are
ten times faster with it.

Recently, the pytest script shipped by Fedora started invoking python
with the `-s` flag, which disables python considering user site
packages. This caused problems for our tests which install the cassandra
driver in the user site packages. This was worked around in e5e7780f32
by providing our own pytest interposer launcher script which does not
pass the above mentioned flag to python. Said patch fixed test.py but
not the run.py in cql-pytest. So if the cql-pytest suite is ran via
test.py it works fine, but if it is invoked via the run script, it fails
because it cannot find the cassandra driver. This patch patches run.py
to use our own pytest launcher script, so the suite can be run via the
run script as well.
Since run.py is shared with the alternator pytest suite, this patch also
fixes said test suite too.
Closes#12253
The default refresh period for permissions in both Scylla and Cassandra
is 2 seconds, which is usually perfectly fine for production
environments, but it introduces a significant delay in automatic
test cases. The refresh period is hereby set to 100ms, which allows
test_permissions.py cases to run in around 1s for Scylla instead of
tens of seconds.
In order to be able to test permissions, an authorizer different
than AllowAllAuthorizer (default) must be set.
CassandraAuthorizer is thus enabled - it works on default user/password
pair, so it doesn't introduce any regressions to the test suite.
When the run scripts for tests of cql-pytest, alternator, redis, etc.,
run Scylla, they should set the UBSAN_OPTIONS and ASAN_OPTIONS so that
if the executable is built with sanitizers enabled, it will ignore false
positives that we know about, and fail on real errors.
The change in this patch affects all test/*/run scripts which use the
this shared Scylla-starting code. test.py already had the same settings,
and it affected the tests that it knows to run directly (unit tests,
cql-pytest, etc.).

When a user runs a script and presses control-C, a SIGINT (signal 2)
gets sent to every process in the script's "process group". By default,
every subprocess started by a script joins the parent's process group.
Our test/*/run test-runner scripts typically start two processes: scylla
and pytest. If we keep them in the same process group, a control-C
would kill them in a random order and that is ugly - if Scylla is
killed before pytest, we'll see a few test failures before pytest
is finally killed. So the existing code put Scylla in its own process
group, and killed it on exit after killing pytest.
But there were a few inconsistencies in our implementation, leading
to some annoying behaviors:
1. Doing "kill -2" to the runner's process (not a control-C which sends
a signal to the process group) caused scylla and pytest to be killed
on exit. So far so good. But, we should kill their entire process
groups, not just the one process. This is important when pytest starts
its own subprocesses (as happens in cql-pytest/test_tools.py),
otherwise they just remain running.
We need to call pgkill() instead of kill(), but also we forgot
to start a new process group for the pytest run - so this patch
fixes it.
2. Our exit handler - which kills the subprocesses - only gets called
on signals which Python catches, and this is only SIGINT. Killing
the test runner with SIGTERM or SIGHUP before this patch caused
the subprocesses to be left running. In this patch we also catch
SIGTERM and SIGHUP, so our exit handler is also run in that case.

When a query requests a partition slice but doesn't limit the number

Because we now reject queries that worked fine before, existing

Seastar's default limit of 10,000 iocbs per shard is too low for
some workload (it places an upper bound on the number of idle

feature to raise the default to 50000.
Also multiply the global reservation by 5, and round it upwards
so the number is less weird. This prevents io_setup() from failing.
For tests, the reservation is reduced since they don't create large
numbers of connections. This reduces surprise test failures when they

standard port (9042) - using a temporary unsigned certificate. Then, the
individual tests connect to this encrypted port using TLSv1.2 (Scylla
doesn't support earlier version of SSL) instead of TCP.
This "--ssl" feature allows writing test which stress various aspects of

We already wrote the test/cql-pytest/run script in Python in a way
it can be reusable for the other test/*/run scripts.
So this patch replaces the test/alternator/run shell script with Python
code which does the same thing (safely runs Scylla with Alternator and
pytest on it in a temporary directory and IP address), but sharing most
of the code that cql-pytest uses.
The benefit of reusing the test/cql-pytest/run.py library goes beyond
shorter code - the main benefit will be that we can't forget to fix one
of the test/*/run scripts (e.g., add more command line options or fix a
bug) when fixing another one.
To make the test/cql-pytest/run.py library reusable for running
Alternator, I needed to generalize a few things in this patch (e.g.,
the way we check and wait for Scylla to boot with the different APIs we
intend to check). There is also one bug-fix on how interrupts are
handled (they are now better guaranteed to kill pytest) - and now fixing
this bug benefits all runners using run.py (cql-pytest/run,
cql-pytest/run-cassandra and alternator/run).
In the future, we can port the runners which are still duplicate shell
scripts - test/redis/run and test/scylla-gdb/run - to Python in a
similar manner to what we did here for test/alternator/run.

Sometimes the cql-pytest tests run extremely slowly. This can be
a combination of running the debug build (which is naturally slow)
and a test machine which is overcommitted, or experiencing some
transient swap storm or some similar event. We don't want tests, which
we run on a 100% reliable setups, to fail just because they run into
timeouts in Scylla when they run very slowly.
We already noticed this problem in the past, and increased the CQL client
timeout in conftest.py from the default of 10 seconds to 120 seconds -
the old default of 10 seconds was not enough for some long operations
(such as creating a table with multiple views) when the test ran very
slowly.
However, this only fixed the client-side timeout. We also have a bunch
of server-side timeouts, configured to all sorts of arbitrary (and
fairly small) numbers. For example, the server has a "write request
timeout" option, which defaults to just 2 seconds. We recently saw
this timeout exceeded in a slow run which tried to do a very large
write.
So this patch configures all the configurable server-side timeouts we
have to default to 300 seconds. This should be more than enough for even
the slowest runs (famous last words...). This default is not a good idea
on real multi-node clusters which are expected to deal with node loss,
but this is not the case in cql-pytest.

Following alternator unit tests, cql-pytest now also boots
Scylla/Cassandra with authentication enabled.
Unconditionally enabling authentication does not ruin any existing
test case, while it enables testing more scenarios. For instance,
Scylla-specific service levels can only be created and attached
to roles, which depends on authentication being enabled.
A sad side-effect is that Scylla boots slower with PasswordAuthenticator
than without it - it takes 15 seconds to set up the default
superuser account due to a hardcoded sleep duration [1] :( That should be
solved by a separate fix though.

Tests are short-lived and use a small amount of data. They
are also often run repeatly, and the data is deleted immediately
after the test. This is a good scenario for using the kernel page
cache, as it can cache read-only data from test to test, and avoid
spilling write data to disk if it is deleted quickly.
Acknowledge this by using the new --kernel-page-cache option for
tests.
This is expected to help on large machines, where the disk can be
overloaded. Smaller machines with NVMe disks probably will not see
a difference.

In test/cql-pytest/run.py we have a 200 second timeout to boot Scylla.
I never expected to reach this timeout - it normally takes (in dev
build mode) around 2 seconds, but in one run on Jenkins we did reach it.
It turns out that the code does not recognize this timeout correctly,
thought that Scylla booted correctly - and then failed all the
subtests when they fail to connect to Scylla.
This patch fixes the timeout logic. After the timeout, if Scylla's
CQL port is still not responsive, the test run is failed - without
