`test_schema_versioning_with_recovery` is currently flaky. It performs
a write with CL=ALL and then checks if the schema version is the same on
all nodes by calling `verify_table_versions_synced`. All nodes are expected
to sync their schema before handling the replica write. The node in
RECOVERY mode should do it through a schema pull, and other nodes should do
it through a group 0 read barrier.
The problem is in `verify_local_schema_versions_synced` that compares the
schema versions in `system.local`. The node in RECOVERY mode updates the
schema version in `system.local` after it acknowledges the replica write
as completed. Hence, the check can fail.
We fix the problem by making the function wait until the schema versions
match.
Note that RECOVERY mode is about to be retired together with the whole
gossip-based topology in 2026.2. So, this test is about to be deleted.
However, we still want to fix it, so that it doesn't bother us in older
branches.

Problem
-------
Secondary indexes are implemented via materialized views under the
hood. The way an index behaves is determined by the configuration
of the view. Currently, it can be modified by performing the CQL
statement `ALTER MATERIALIZED VIEW` on it. However, that raises some
concerns.
Consider, for instance, the following scenario:
1. The user creates a secondary index on a table.
2. In parallel, the user performs writes to the base table.
3. The user modifies the underlying materialized view, e.g. by setting
the `synchronous_updates` to `true` [1].
Some of the writes that happened before step 3 used the default value
of the property (which is `false`). That had an actual consequence
on what happened later on: the view updates were performed
asynchronously. Only after step 3 had finished did it change.
Unfortunately, as of now, there is no way to avoid a situation like
that. Whenever the user wants to configure a secondary index they're
creating, they need to do it in another schema change. Since it's
not always possible to control how the database is manipulated in
the meantime, it leads to problems like the one described.
That's not all, though. The fact that it's not possible to configure
secondary indexes is inconsistent with other schema entities. When
it comes to tables or materialized views, the user always have a means
to set some or even all of the properties during their creation.
Solution
--------
The solution to this problem is extending the `CREATE INDEX` CQL
statement by view properties. The syntax is of form:
```
> CREATE INDEX <index name>
> .. ON <keyspace>.<table> (<columns>)
> .. WITH <properties>
```
where `<properties>` corresponds to both index-specific and view
properties [2, 3]. View properties can only be used with indexes
implemented with materialized views; for example, it will be impossible
to create a vector index when specifying any view property (see
examples below).
When a view property is provided, it will be applied when creating the
underlying materialized view. The behavior should be similar to how
other CQL statements responsible for creating schema entities work.
High-level implementation strategy
----------------------------------
1. Make auxiliary changes.
2. Introduce data structures representing the new set of index
properties: both index-specific and those corresponding to the
underlying view.
3. Extend `CREATE INDEX` to accept view properties.
4. Extend `DESCRIBE INDEX` and other `DESCRIBE` statements to include
view properties in their output.
User documentation is also updated at the steps to reflect the
corresponding changes.
Implementation considerations
-----------------------------
There are a number of schema properties that are now obsolete. They're
accepted by other CQL statements, but they have no effect. They
include:
* `index_interval`
* `replicate_on_write`
* `populate_io_cache_on_flush`
* `read_repair_chance`
* `dclocal_read_repair_chance`
If the user tries to create a secondary index specifying any of those
keywords, the statement will fail with an appropriate error (see
examples below).
Unlike materialized views, we forbid specifying the clustering order
when creating a secondary index [4]. This limitation may be lifted
later on, but it's a detail that may or may not prove troublesome. It's
better to postpone covering it to when we have a better perspective on
the consequences it would bring.
Examples
--------
Good examples
```
> CREATE INDEX idx ON ks.t (v);
> CREATE INDEX idx ON ks.t (v) WITH comment = 'ok view property';
> CREATE INDEX idx ON ks.t (v)
.. WITH comment = 'multiple view properties are ok'
.. AND synchronous_updates = true;
> CREATE INDEX idx ON ks.t (v)
.. WITH comment = 'default value ok'
.. AND synchronous_updates = false;
```
Bad examples
```
> CREATE INDEX idx ON ks.t (v) WITH replicate_on_write = true;
SyntaxException: Unknown property 'replicate_on_write'

A data_sink that stores buffers into an in-memory collection had
appeared in seastar recently. In Scylla there's similar thing that uses
memory_data_sink_buffer as a container, so it's possible to drop the
data_sink_impl iself in favor of seastar implementation.
For that to work there should be append_buffers() overload for the
aforementioned container. For its nice implementation the container, in
turn, needs to get push_back() method and value_type trait. The method
already exists, but is called put(), so just rename it. There's one more
user of it this method in S3 client, and it can enjoy the added
append_buffers() helper.

This patch adds a second reproducer for issue #25839, which is about
scanning a secondary index which returns partial results. The new test
uses count(*) without requesting the row themselves, but still has the
same problem of counting only part of the rows. This is the problem that
a user reported in issue #28026.
Unlike the previous test, this test works correctly on older versions
of Scylla - by using larger data, like on Cassandra - without changing
a configuration variable that did not yet exist. So with this test we
can confirm that this bug is a Scylla 5.2 regression:
test/cqlpy/run --release 5.1 test_secondary_index.py::test_short_count
passes, while
test/cqlpy/run --release 5.2 test_secondary_index.py::test_short_count
fails. It also fails on master, so the new test is marked "xfail".

This method can cause performance regressions if used in the wrong place
-- namely if it is used to abort reads by throwing the abort exception.
Exceptions should be propagated during reads without throwing them,
otherwise they cause extra CPU load, making a bad situation worse.
Remove this method, so it doesn't accidentally get more users, migrate
remaining users to get_abort_exception().
Read timeouts shouldn't trigger exceptions thrown, exceptions should be
solely propagated via futures, otherwise they put extra strain on the
system at the worst possible time: when it is overload already enough
that reads started to time out.
The test covers both single partition reads and full scans, with two
scenarios:
* timeout while the read is queued
* timeout when the read is already ongoing
If the read is aborted via the permit (due to timeout) don't throw the
abort exception, instead propagate it via the future chain.
Also, use try_catch<> instead of try ... catch to decorate
malformed_sstable_exception with the file name.
Use coroutine::try_future() to avoid exceptions taking flight and
triggering expensive stack-unwinding.
Especially bad for common exceptions like timeouts.

We have a test in test_compressed_response.py that reproduces a bug
where in Alternator's signature checking code, if a header had multiple
consecutive spaces its signature isn't checked correctly.
This patch fixes this and that xfailing test begins to pass.
But it turns out that the handling of multiple consecutive spaces in
headers when calculating the authentication signature is just one example
of "header canonization" that the AWS Signature V4 specification requires
us to do. There are additional types of header canonization that Alternator
must do, and this patch also adds new tests in test_authorization.py for
checking *all* the types of canonization.
Fortunately, for all other types of canonizations, we already handled
them correctly - Alternator already lowercases header names, sorts them
alphabetically and removes leading and trailing spaces before calculating
the signature. So most of the new tests added pass also without this patch,
and only one of them, test_canonization_middle_whitespace, needs this
patch to pass. As usual, all the new tests also pass on DynamoDB.

Following 954f2cbd2f, which added proxy protocol v2 listeners
for CQL, we do the same for alternator. We add two optional ports
for plain and TLS-wrapped HTTP.
We test each new port, that the old ports still work, and that
mixing up a port with no proxy protocol and a connection with proxy
protocol (or the opposite) fails. The latter serves to show
that the testing strategy is valid and doesn't just pass whatever
happens. We also verify that the correct addresses (and TLS mode)
show up in system.clients.

Currently Alternator supports compressed requests in the gzip format
with "Content-Encoding: gzip". We did not support any other compression
formats.
It turns out that DynamoDB also supports the "deflate" encoding.
The "deflate" format is just a small variant of gzip and also supported
by the same zlib library that we already use, so it is very easy
to add support for it as well. So this patch adds it.
Beyond compatibility with DynamoDB, another benefit of this patch is
symmetry with our response compression support (PR #27454), where
we supported both gzip and deflate compression of responses - so
we should support the same for requests.
This patch also adds tests for Content-Encoding: deflate, which pass
on DynamoDB (proving that "deflate" is indeed supported there).
On Alternator the new tests failed before this patch and pass with
this patch.

it checks what happens when key columns of different types exceeed

One of the tests also fails on Cassandra, due to CASSANDRA-19270.
It is not clear to me how this unit test actually passed on Cassandra,
I can only guess that the Python driver somehow makes the request
differently than what the Java unit tests use to make requests to
Cassandra.

translate, readingEmptyStringsForDifferentTypes, because it tests
