This PR extends the `tmpdir` class with an option to preserve the directory if the destructor is called during stack unwinding. It also uses this feature in KMIP tests, where the tmpdir contains PyKMIP server logs, which may be useful when diagnosing test failures.

The central idea of incremental repair is to allow repair participants
to select and repair only a portion of the dataset to speed up the
repair process. All repair participants must utilize an identical
selection method to repair and synchronize the same selected dataset.
There are two primary selection methods: time-based and file-based. The
time-based method selects data within a specified time frame. It is
versatile but it is less efficient because it requires reading all of
the dataset and omitting data beyond the time frame. The file-based
method selects data from unrepaired SSTables and is more efficient
because it allows the entire SSTable to be omitted. This document patch
implements the file-based selection method.
Incremental repair will only be supported for tablet tables; it will not
be supported for vnode tables. On one hand, the legacy vnode is less
important to support. On the other hand, the incremental repair for
vnode is much harder to implement. With vnodes, a SSTalbe could contain
data for multiple vnode ranges. When a given vnode range is repaired,
only a portion of the SSTable is repaired. This complicates the
manipulation of SSTables significantly during both repair and
compaction. With tablets, an entire tablet is repaired so that a
sstable is either fully repaired or not repaired which is a huge
simplification.
This patch uses the repaired_at from sstables::statistics component to
mark a sstable as repaired. It uses a virtual clock as the repair
timestamp, i.e., using a monotonically increasing number for the
repaired_at field of a SSTable and sstables_repaired_at column in
system.tablets table. Notice that when a sstable is not repaired, the
repaired_at field will be set to the default value 0 by default. The
being_repaired in memory field of a SSTable is used to explicitly mark
that a SSTable is being selected. The following variables are used for
incremental repair:
The repaired_at on disk field of a SSTable is used.
- A 64-bit number increases sequentially
The sstables_repaired_at is added to the system.tablets table.
- repaired_at <= sstables_repaired_at means the sstable is repaired
The being_repaired in memory field of a SSTable is added.
- A repair UUID tells which sstable has participated in the repair

This is yet another part in the BTI index project.
Overarching issue: https://github.com/scylladb/scylladb/issues/19191
Previous part: https://github.com/scylladb/scylladb/pull/25396
Next part: implementing sstable index writers and readers on top of the abstract trie writers/readers.
The new code added in this PR isn't used outside of tests yet, but it's posted as a separate PR for reviewability.
This series provides translation routines for ring positions and clustering positions
from Scylla's native in-memory structures to BTI's byte-comparable encoding.
This translation is performed whenever a new decorated key or clustering block
are added to a BTI index, and whenever a BTI index is queried for a range of positions.
For a description of the encoding, see
fad1f74570/src/java/org/apache/cassandra/utils/bytecomparable/ByteComparable.md (multi-component-sequences-partition-or-clustering-keys-tuples-bounds-and-nulls)
The translation logic, with all the fragment awareness, lazy
evaluation and avoidable copies, is fairly bloated for the common cases
of simple and small keys. This is a potential optimization target for later.
No backports needed, new functionality.

Remove support for generating numerical sstable generation for new sstables.
Loading such sstables is still supported but new sstables are always created with a uuid generation.
This is possible since:
* All live versions (since 5.4 / f014ccf369) now support uuid sstable generations.
* The `uuid_sstable_identifiers_enabled` config option (that is unused from version 2025.2 / 6da758d74c) controls only the use of uuid generations when creating new sstables. SSTables with uuid generations should still be properly loaded by older versions, even if `uuid_sstable_identifiers_enabled` is set to `false`.

Instead of storing it partially in tombstone_gc and partially in an
external map. Move all external parts into the new
shared_tombstone_gc_state. This new class is responsible for
keeping and updating the repair history. tombstone_gc_state just keeps
const pointers to the shared state as before and is only responsible for
querying the tombstone gc before times.
This separation makes the code easier to follow and also enables further
patching of tombstone_gc_state.

This will allow upcoming work to gently produce a sstable set for
each compaction group view. Example: repaired and unrepaired.
Locking strategy for compaction's sstable selection:
Since sstable retrieval path became futurized, tasks in compaction
manager will now hold the write lock (compaction_state::lock)
when retrieving the sstable list, feeding them into compaction
strategy, and finally registering selected sstables as compacting.
The last step prevents another concurrent task from picking the
same sstable. Previously, all those steps were atomic, but
we have seen stall in that area in large installations, so
futurization of that area would come sooner or later.

Previously, `raft_group0::abort()` was called in `storage_service::do_drain` (introduced in #24418) to stop the group0 Raft server before destroying local storage. This was necessary because `raft::server` depends on storage (via `raft_sys_table_storage` and `group0_state_machine`).
However, this caused issues: services like `sstable_dict_autotrainer` and `auth::service`, which use `group0_client` but are not stopped by `storage_service`, could trigger use-after-free if `raft_group0` was destroyed too early. This can happen both during normal shutdown and when 'nodetool drain' is used.
This PR reworks the shutdown logic:
* Introduces `abort_and_drain()`, which aborts the server and waits for background tasks to finish, but keeps the server object alive. Clients will see `raft::stopped_error` if they try to access group0 after this method is called.
* Final destruction now happens in `abort_and_destroy()`, called later from `main.cc`, ensuring safe cleanup.
The `raft_server_for_group::aborted` is changed to a `shared_future`, as it is now awaited in both abort methods.
Node startup can fail before reaching `storage_service`, in which case `drain_on_shutdown()` and `abort_and_drain()` are never called. To ensure proper cleanup, `raft_group0` deinitialization logic must be included in both `abort_and_drain()` and `abort_and_destroy()`.

Nowadays the way to configure an internal service is
1. service declares its config struct
2. caller (main/test/tool) fills the respective config with values it wants
3. the service is started with the config passed by value
The feature service code behaves likewise, but provides a helper method to create its config out of db::config. This PR moves this helper out of gms code, so that it doesn't mess with system-wide db::config and only needs its own small struct feature_config.

This PR enables **LWT (Lightweight Transactions)** support for tablet-based tables by leveraging **colocated tables**.
Currently, storing Paxos state in system tables causes two major issues:
* **Loss of Paxos state during tablet migration or base table rebuilds**
* When a tablet is migrated or the base table is rebuilt, system tables don't retain Paxos state.
* This breaks LWT correctness in certain scenarios.
* Failing test cases demonstrating this:
* test_lwt_state_is_preserved_on_tablet_migration
* test_lwt_state_is_preserved_on_rebuild
* **Shard misalignment and performance overhead**
* Tablets may be placed on arbitrary shards by the tablet balancer.
* Accessing Paxos state in system tables could require a shard jump, degrading performance.
We move Paxos state into a dedicated Paxos table, colocated with the base table:
* Each base table gets its own Paxos state table.
* This table is lazily created on the first LWT operation.
* Its tablets are colocated with those of the base table, ensuring:
* Co-migration during tablet movement
* Co-rebuilding with the base table
* Shard alignment for local access to Paxos state
Some reasoning for why this is sufficient to preserve LWT correctness is discussed in [2].
This PR addresses two issues from the "Why doesn't it work for tablets" section in [1]:
* Tablet migration vs LWT correctness
* Paxos table sharding
Other issues ("bounce to shard" and "locking for intranode_migration") have already been resolved in previous PRs.

Unlike the currently-used sstable index files, BTI indexes don't store the entire partition keys. They only store prefixes of decorated keys, up to the minimum length needed to differentiate a key from its neighbours in the sstable. This saves space.
However, it means that a BTI index query might be off by one partition (on each end of the queried partition range) with respect to the optimal Data position.
For example, if the index stores prefixes `a`, `b`, `c`,
the index has no way to know if the first index entry after key `bb`
is `b` (which might correspond to `ba` as well as `bc`), or `c`.
So the index reader conservatively has to pick the wider Data range, and the Data reader must ignore the superfluous partitions. (And there's no way around that.)
Before this patch, the sstable reader expects the index query to return an exact (optimal) Data range. This patch adjusts the logic of the sstable reader to allow for inexact ranges.
Note: the patch is more complicated that it looks. The logic of the sstable reader was already fairly hard to follow and this adds even more flags, more weird special states and more edge cases. I think I managed to write a decent test and it did find three or four edge cases I wouldn't have noticed otherwise. I think it should cover all the added logic, but I didn't verify code coverage. (Do our scripts for that even work nowadays)? Simplification ideas are welcome.
Preparation for new functionality, no backporting needed.

Previously, raft_group0::abort() was called in
storage_service::do_drain (introduced in #24418) to
stop the group0 Raft server before destroying local storage.
This was necessary because raft::server depends on storage
(via raft_sys_table_storage and group0_state_machine).
However, this caused issues: services like
sstable_dict_autotrainer and auth::service, which use
group0_client but are not stopped by storage_service,
could trigger use-after-free if raft_group0 was destroyed
too early. This can happen both during normal shutdown
and when 'nodetool drain' is used.
This commit reworks the shutdown logic:
* Introduces abort_and_drain(), which aborts the server
and waits for background tasks to finish, but keeps the
server object alive. Clients will see raft::stopped_error if
they try to access group0 after abort_and_drain().
* Final destruction happens in a separate method destroy(),
called later from main.cc.
The raft_server_for_group::aborted is changed to a
shared_future -- abort_server now returns a future so that
we can wait for it in abort_and_drain(), it should return
the future from the previous abort_server call, which can
happen in the on_background_error callback.
Node startup can fail before reaching storage_service,
in which case ss.drain_on_shutdown() and abort_and_drain()
are never called. To ensure proper cleanup,
abort_and_drain() is called from main.cc before destroy().
Clients of raft_group_registry are expected to call
destroy_server() for the servers they own. Currently,
the only such client is raft_group0, which satisfies
this requirement. As a result,
raft_group_registry::stop_servers() is no longer needed.
Instead, raft_group_registry::stop() now verifies that all
servers have been properly destroyed.
If any remain, it calls on_internal_error().
The call to drain_on_shutdown() in cql_test_env.cc
appears redundant. The only source of raft::server
instances in raft_group_registry is group0_service, and
if group0_service.start() succeeds, both abort_and_drain()
and destroy() are guaranteed to be called during shutdown.
BTI indexes only store encoded prefixes of partition keys,
not the whole keys. They can't reliably implement `get_partition_key`.
The index reader interface must be weakened and callers must
be adapted.

it doesn't exist. When the LWT coordinator sends RPCs to replicas,

or throw 'no_such_column_family' if the base table was dropped.

This is a refactoring patch in preparation for BTI indexes. It contains no functional changes (or at least it's not intended to).
In this patch, we modify the sstable readers to use index readers through a new virtual `abstract_index_readers` interface.
Later, we will add BTI indexes which will also implement this interface.
This interface contains the methods of `index_reader` which are needed by sstable readers, and leaves out all other methods, such as `current_clustered_cursor`.
Not all methods of this interface will be implementable by a trie-based index later. For example, a trie-based index can't provide a reliable `get_partition_key()`, because — unlike the current index — it only stores partition keys for partitions which have a row index. So the interface will have to be further restricted later. We don't do that in this patch because that will require changes to sstable reader logic, and this patch is supposed to only include cosmetic changes.
No backports needed, this is a preparation for new functionality.

Analysis of customer stalls revealed that the function `detail::hash_with_salt` (invoked by `passwords::check`) often blocks the reactor. Internally, this function uses the external `crypt_r` function to compute password hashes, which is CPU-intensive.
This PR addresses the issue in two ways:
1) `sha-512` is now the only password hashing scheme for new passwords (it was already the common-case).
2) `passwords::check` is moved to a dedicated alien thread.
Regarding point 1: before this change, the following hashing schemes were supported by `identify_best_supported_scheme()`: bcrypt_y, bcrypt_a, SHA-512, SHA-256, and MD5. The reason for this was that the `crypt_r` function used for password hashing comes from an external library (currently `libxcrypt`), and the supported hashing algorithms vary depending on the library in use. However:
- The bcrypt schemes never worked properly because their prefixes lack the required round count (e.g. `$2y$` instead of `$2y$05$`). Moreover, bcrypt is slower than SHA-512, so it not good idea to fix or use it.
- SHA-256 and SHA-512 both belong to the SHA-2 family. Libraries that support one almost always support the other, so it’s very unlikely to find SHA-256 without SHA-512.
- MD5 is no longer considered secure for password hashing.
Regarding point 2: the `passwords::check` call now runs on a shared alien thread created at database startup. An `std::mutex` synchronizes that thread with the shards. In theory this could introduce a frequent lock contention, but in practice each shard handles only a few hundred new connections per second—even during storms. There is already `_conns_cpu_concurrency_semaphore` in `generic_server` limits the number of concurrent connection handlers.

This commit adds a call to `pthread_setname_np` in
`alien_worker::spawn`, so each alien worker thread receives a
descriptive name. This makes debugging, monitoring, and performance
analysis easier by allowing alien workers to be clearly identified
in tools such as `perf`.
Analysis of customer stalls showed that the `detail::hash_with_salt`
function, called from `passwords::check`, often blocks the reactor.
This function internally uses the `crypt_r` function from an external
library to compute password hashes, which is a CPU-intensive operation.
To prevent such reactor stalls, this commit moves the
`passwords::check` call to a dedicated alien thread. This thread is
created at system startup and is shared by all shards.
Within the alien thread, an `std::mutex` synchronizes access between
the thread and the shards. While this could theoretically cause
frequent lock contentions, in practice, even during connection storms,
the number of new connections per second per shard is limited
(typically hundreds per second). Additionally, the
`_conns_cpu_concurrency_semaphore` in `generic_server` ensures that not
too many connections are processed at once.

In KMIP host, do release of a connection (socket) due to our connection pool for the host being full, we currently don't close the connection properly, only rely on destructors.
This just makes sure `release` closes the connection if it neither retains or caches it.
Also, when running with the PyKMIP fixture, we tested the port being reachable using a normal socket. This makes python SSL generate errors -> log noise that look like actual errors.
Change the test setup to use a proper TLS connection + proper shutdown to avoid the noise logs.
This also adds a fixture helper for processes, and moves EAR test to use it (and by extension, seastar::experimental::process) instead of boost::process, removing a nasty non-seastarish dependency.

This change is preparing ground for state update unification for raft bound subsystems. It introduces schema_applier which in the future will become generic interface for applying mutations in raft.
Pulling database::apply() out of schema merging code will allow to batch changes to subsystems. Future generic code will first call prepare() on all implementations, then single database::apply() and then update() on all implementations, then on each shard it will call commit() for all implementations, without preemption so that the change is observed as atomic across all subsystems, and then post_commit().

Before for views and indexes it was fetching base schema from db (and
couple other properties). This is a problem once we introduce atomic
tables and views deletion (in the following commit).
Because once we delete table it can no longer be fetched from db object,
and truncation is performed after atomically deleting all relevant
tables/views/indexes.
Now the whole relevant schema will be fetched via global_table_ptr
(table_shards) object.
There is already implicit logical dependency via migration_notifier
but in the next commits we'll be moving store_service out from it
as we need better control (i.e. return a value from the call).
This patch is a part of vector_store_client sharded service
implementation for a communication with vector-store service.
It adds a `services/vector_store_client.{cc|hh}` sharded service and a
configuration parameter `vector_store_uri` with a
`http://vector-store.dns.name:port` format. If there will be an error
during parsing that parameter there will be an exception during
construction.
For the future unit testing purposes the patch adds
`vector_store_client_tester` as a way to inject mockup functionality.
This service will be used by the select statements for the Vector search
indexes (see VS-46). For this reason I've added vector_store_client
service in the query processor.

When describing a table, we need to do it carefully: if some
columns were dropped, we must specify that explicitly by
```
ALTER TABLE {table} DROP {column} USING TIMESTAMP ...
```
in the result of the DESCRIBE statement. Failing to do so
could lead to data resurrection.
However, if a table has been altered many, many times,
we might end up with a huge create statement. Constructing
it could, in turn, trigger an oversized allocation.
Some tests ran into that very problem in fact.
In this commit, we want to mitigate the problem: instead of
allocating a contiguous chunk of memory for the create
statement, we use `bytes_ostream` and `managed_bytes` to
possibly keep data scattered in memory. It makes handling
`cql3::description` less convenient in the code, but since
the struct is pretty much immediately serialized after
creating it, it's a very good trade-off.
A reproducer is intentionally not provided by this commit:
it's easy to test the change, but adding and dropping
a huge number of columns would take a really long amount
of time, so we need to omit it.

Although valid for compact tables, non-full (or empty) clustering key prefixes are not handled for row keys when writing sstables. Only the present components are written, consequently if the key is empty, it is omitted entirely.
When parsing sstables, the parsing code unconditionally parses a full prefix.
This mis-match results in parsing failures, as the parser parses part of the row content as a key resulting in a garbage key and subsequent mis-parsing of the row content and maybe even subsequent partitions.
Introduce a new system table: `system.corrupt_data` and infrastructure similar to `large_data_handler`: `corrupt_data_handler` which abstracts how corrupt data is handled. The sstable writer now passes rows such corrupt keys to the corrupt data handler. This way, we avoid corrupting the sstables beyond parsing and the rows are also kept around in system.corrupt_data for later inspection and possible recovery.
Add a full-stack test which checks that rows with bad keys are correctly handled.

The primary motivation for this change is to reduce the time during which the Effective Replication Map (ERM) is retained by the mapreduce service. This ensures that long aggregate queries do not block topology operations. As ScyllaDB is generally transitioning towards tablets, and using tablets simplifies work dispatching, the decision was made to design the new algorithm specifically for tablets. The goal of the algorithm is to divide the work in such a way that each `tablet_replica` (that is <host, shard> pair) processes two tablets at a time.
The new algorithm can be summarized as follows:
1. Prepare a tablet_replica -> partition_range mapping where the values cover the entire space.
2. For each tablet_replica, in parallel, take two partition ranges and dispatch them to the node hosting the replica. The ERM is released and re-acquired in each iteration, allowing the destination (i.e., tablet_replica) to change for each
artition range (in such cases, the partition range is assigned to the appropriate tablet_replica).
In step 1, the main difference compared to the old algorithm (dispatch_to_vnodes) is that partition ranges are assigned to a tablet_replica rather than just the host.
In step 2, the main difference is that the work is divided into smaller batches, and the ERM is released and re-acquired for each batch.
In the current implementation, each node can correctly handle every partition range, even if the mapreduce supercoordinator does not retain the ERM and the range is absent locally. This is because mapreduce_service::execute_on_this_shard creates a new pager that coordinates the partition range read, including obtaining its own ERM. However, every partition range that is absent locally is handled by shard 0. Therefore, proper routing of partition ranges is necessary to avoid shard 0 overload. This is why, in step 2, the ERM is retained during each batch processing, and the tablet_replica is refreshed for each processed range.
Additionally, shard_id is added to mapreduce request. When shard_id is set, the entire partition range is handled by the specified shard. As the new tablet-aware mapreduce algorithm balances the workload across shards, shard_id ensure that the balance is preserved, even during events such as tablet splits.
This patch series:
- Refactors a bit mapreduce service, to facilitate having two algorithm versions (one for vnodes and one for tablets).
- Implements tablet-aware dispatching algorithm.
- Adds shard_id to mapreduce request and uses the information to handle requests entirely by selected shard.
- Adds test_long_query_timeout_erm to verify the new functionality.

Before this change, `mapreduce_service` used `_shared_token_metadata`
to get the topology. However, the token was used in a part of the code
that already had its own ERM with its own metadata token. Moreover,
as mapreduce_service's token and ERM's token are not guaranteed to be
the same, inconsistencies could occur.
Therefore, this commit removes `_shared_token_metadata` and its usage.
Similar to how large_data_handler is handled, propagate through
sstables::sstables_manager and store its owner: replica::database.
Tests and tools are also patched. Mostly mechanical changes, updating
constructors and patching callers.
