are expected to contain reasonably small values, but texts, blobs and especially
collections can get very large. Since the entire hierarchy shares a common
interface we can either transition all or none to work with fragmented buffers.
This series gets rid of intermediate linearizations in deserialization. The next
steps are removing linearizations from serialization, validation and comparison
code.
Series summary:
- Fix a bug in `fragmented_temporary_buffer::view::remove_prefix`. (Discovered
while testing. Since it wasn't discovered earlier, I guess it doesn't occur in
any code path in master.)
- Add a `FragmentedView` concept to allow uniform handling of various types of
fragmented buffers (`bytes_view`, `temporary_fragmented_buffer::view`,
`ser::buffer_view` and likely `managed_bytes_view` in the future).
- Implement `FragmentedView` for relevant fragmented buffer types.
- Add helper functions for reading from `FragmentedView`.
- Switch `deserialize()` and all its helpers from `bytes_view` to
`FragmentedView`.
- Remove `with_linearized()` calls which just became unnecessary.
- Add an optimization for single-fragment cases.
The addition of `FragmentedView` might be controversial, because another concept
meant for the same purpose - `FragmentRange` - is already used. Unfortunately,
it lacks the functionality we need. The main (only?) thing we want to do with a
fragmented buffer is to extract a prefix from it and `FragmentRange` gives us no
way to do that, because it's immutable by design. We can work around that by
wrapping it into a mutable view which will track the offset into the immutable
`FragmentRange`, and that's exactly what `linearizing_input_stream` is. But it's
wasteful. `linearizing_input_stream` is a heavy type, unsuitable for passing
around as a view - it stores a pair of fragment iterators, a fragment view and a
size (11 words) to conform to the iterator-based design of `FragmentRange`, when
one fragment iterator (4 words) already contains all needed state, just hidden.
I suggest we replace `FragmentRange` with `FragmentedView` (or something
similar) altogether.

bytes_view is one of the types we want to deserialize from (at least for now),
so we want to be able to pass it to deserialize() after it's transitioned to
FragmentView.
single_fragmented_view is a wrapper implementing FragmentedView for bytes_view.
It's constructed from bytes_view explicitly, because it's typically used in
context where we want to phase linearization (and by extension, bytes_view) out.
This patch introduces FragmentedView - a concept intented as a general-purpose
interface for fragmented buffers.
Another concept made for this purpose, FragmentedRange, already exists in the
codebase. However, it's unwieldy. The iterator-based design of FragmentRange is
harder to implement and requires more code, but more importantly it makes
FragmentRange immutable.
Usually we want to read the beginning of the buffer and pass the rest of it
elsewhere. This is impossible with FragmentRange.
FragmentedView can do everything FragmentRange can do and more, except for
playing nicely with iterator-based collection methods, but those are useless for
fragmented buffers anyway.
Move the definition of bool_class can_yield to a standalone
header file and define there a maybe_yield(can_yield) helper.

This piece of logic was wrong for two unrelated reasons:
1. When fragmented_temporary_buffer::view is constructed from bytes_view,
_current is null. When remove_prefix was used on such view, null pointer
dereference happened.
2. It only worked for the first remove_prefix call. A second call would put a
wrong value in _current_position.
This PR allows changing the hinted_handoff_enabled option in runtime, either by modifying and reloading YAML configuration, or through HTTP API.
This PR also introduces an important change in semantics of hinted_handoff_enabled:
- Previously, hinted_handoff_enabled controlled whether _both writing and sending_ hints is allowed at all, or to particular DCs,
- Now, hinted_handoff_enabled only controls whether _writing hints_ is enabled. Sending hints from disk is now always enabled.

Currently, the `directories` class is used exclusively during
initialization, in the main() function. This commit refactors this class
so that it is possible to use it to initialize directories much later
after startup.
The intent of this change is to make it possible for hints manager to
create directories for hints lazily. Currently, when Scylla is booted
with hinted handoff disabled, the `hints_directory` config parameter is
ignored and directories for hints are neither created nor verified.
Because we would like to preserve this behavior and introduce
possibility to switch hinted handoff on in runtime, the hints
directories will have to be created lazily the first time hinted handoff
is enabled.
meaningful
When computing moving average rates too early after startup, the
rate can be infinite, this is simply because the sample interval
since the system started is too small to generate meaningful results.
Here we check for this situation and keep the rate at 0 if it happens
to signal that there are still no meaningful results.
This incident is unlikely to happen since it can happen only during a
very small time window after restart, so we add a hint to the compiler
to optimize for that in order to have a minimum impact on the normal
usecase.

A variant of reserve() which allows gentle reserving of memory. This
variant will allocate just one chunk at a time. To drive it to

Currently, we linearize large UTF8 cells in order to validate them.
This can cause large latency spikes if the cell is large.
This series changes UTF8 validation to work on fragmented buffers.
This is somewhat tricky since the validation routines are optimized
for single-instruction-multiple-data (SIMD) architectures.
The unit tests are expanded to cover the new functionality.
Fixes#7448.
Closes#7449
* github.com:scylladb/scylla:
types: don't linearize utf8 for validation
test: utf8: add fragmented buffer validation tests
utils: utf8: add function to validate fragmented buffers
utils: utf8: expose validate_partial() in a header
utils: utf8: introduce validate_partial()
utils: utf8: extract a function to evaluate a single codepoint
Add a function to validate fragmented buffers. We validate
each buffer with SIMD-optimized validate_partial(), then
collect the codepoint that spans buffer boundaries (if any)
in a temporary buffer, validate that too, and continue.
The current validators expect the buffer to contain a full
UTF-8 string. This won't be the case for fragmented buffers,
since a codepoint can straddle two (or more) buffers.
To prepare for that, convert the existing validators to
validate_partial(), which returns either an error, or
success with an indication of the size of the tail that
was not validated and now many bytes it is missing.
This is natural since the SIMD validators already
cannot process a tail in SIMD mode if it's smaller than
the vector size, so only minor rearrangements are needed.
In addition, we now have validate_partial() for non-SIMD
architectures, since we'll need it for fragmented buffer
validation.
Our SIMD optimized validators cannot process a codepoint that
spans multiple buffers, and adapting them to be able to will slow
them down. So our strategy is to special-case any codepoint that
spans two buffers.
To do that, extract an evaluate_codepoint() function from the
current validate_naive() function. It returns three values:
- if a codepoint was successfully decoded from the buffer,
how many bytes were consumed
- if not enough bytes were in the buffer, how many more
are needed
- otherwise, an error happened, so return an indication
The new function uses a table to calculate a codepoint's
size from its first byte, similar to the SIMD variants.
validate_naive() is now implemented in terms of
evaluate_codepoint().
The input range to utils::to_range() should be indeed a range,
but clang has trouble compiling <ranges> which causes it to fail.
Relax the constraint until this is fixed.

AWS sdk (kinesis) assumes SequenceNumbers are monotonically
growing bigints. Since we sort on and use timeuuids are these
a "raw" bit representation of this will _not_ fulfill the
requirement. However, we can "unwrap" the timestamp of uuid
msb and give the value as timestamp<<64|lsb, which will
ensure sort order == bigint order.
Currently, the serialized_action error is set to a shared_promise,
but is not returned to the caller, unless there is an
already outstanding action.

This utility function converts a potentially large number to a compact
representation, composed of at most 4 digits and a letter appropriate to
the power of two the number has to multiplied with to arrive to the
original number (with some loss of precision).
The different powers of two are the conventional 2 ** (N * 10) variants:
* N=0: (B)ytes
* N=1: (K)bytes
* N=2: (M)bytes
* N=3: (G)bytes
* N=4: (T)bytes
Examples:
* 87665 will be converted to 87K
* 1024 will be converted to 1K
Clang has some difficulty with the boost::cpp_int constructor from string_view.
In fact it is a mess of enable_if<>s so a human would have trouble too.
Work around it by converting to std::string. This is bad for performance, but
this constructor is not going to be fast in any case.
Hopefully a fix will arrive in clang or boost.

Clang has a bug processing inline ifuncs with intrinsics[1].
Since ifuncs can't be inlined anyway (they are always dispatched
via a function pointer that is determined based on the CPU
features present), nothing is gained by inlining them. Deinlining
therefore reduces compile time and works around the clang bug.

We have templates for multiprecision_int for both sides of the operator,
for example:
template <typename T>
bool operator==(const T& x) const
and
template <typename T>
friend bool operator==(const T& x, const multiprecision_int& y)
Clang considers them equally satisfying when both operands are
multiprecision_int, so provide a disambiguating overload.
Clang dislikes forward-declared functions returning auto, so declare the
type up front. Functions returning auto are a readability problem
anyway.
To solve a circular dependency problem (get_local_injector() ->
error_injection<> -> get_local_injector()), which is further compounded
by problems in using template specializations before they are defined
(which is forbidden), the storage for get_local_injector() was moved
to error_injection<>, and get_local_injector() is just an accessor.
After this, error_injection<> does not depend on get_local_injector().

Migration manager installs several cluster feature change listeners.
The listeners will call update_schema_version_and_announce() when cluster
features are enabled, which does this:
return update_schema_version(proxy, features).then([] (utils::UUID uuid) {
return announce_schema_version(uuid);
});
It first updates the schema version and then publishes it via
gossip in announce_schema_version(). It is possible that the
announce_schema_version() part of the first schema change will be
deferred and will execute after the other four calls to
update_schema_version_and_announce(). It will install the old schema
version in gossip instead of the more recent one.
The fix is to serialize schema digest calculation and publishing.
Refs #7200
This problem also brought my attention to initialization code, which could be
prone to the same problem.
The storage service computes gossiper states before it starts the
gossiper. Among them, node's schema version. There are two problems with that.
First is that computing the schema version and publishing it is not
atomic, so is not safe against concurrent schema changes or schema
version recalculations. It will not exclude with
recalculate_schema_version() calls, and we could end up with the old
(and incorrect) schema version being advertised in gossip.
Second problem is that we should not allow the database layer to call
into the gossiper layer before it is fully initialized, as this may
produce undefined behavior.
Maybe we're not doing concurrent schema changes/recalculations now,
but it is easy to imagine that this could change for whatever reason
in the future.
The solution for both problems is to break the cyclic dependency
between the database layer and the storage_service layer by having the
database layer not use the gossiper at all. The database layer
publishes schema version inside the database class and allows
installing listeners on changes. The storage_service layer asks the
database layer for the current version when it initializes, and only
after that installs a listener which will update the gossiper.
Tests:
- unit (dev)
- manual (3 node ccm)

The log-structured allocator (LSA) reserves memory when performing
operations, since its operations are performed with reclaiming disabled
and if it runs out, it cannot evict cache to gain more. The amount of
memory to reserve is remembered across calls so that it does not have
to repeat the fail/increase-reserve/retry cycle for every operation.
However, we currently lack decaying the amount to reserve. This means
that if a single operation increased the reserve in the distant past,
all current operations also require this large reserve. Large reserves
are expensive since they can cause large amounts of cache to be evicted.
This patch adds reserve decay. The time-to-decay is inversely proportional
to reserve size: 10GB/reserve. This means that a 20MB reserve is halved
after 500 operations (10GB/20MB) while a 20kB reserve is halved after
500,000 operations (10GB/20kB). So large, expensive reserves are decayed
quickly while small, inexpensive reserves are decayed slowly to reduce
the risk of allocation failures and exceptions.
A unit test is added.
