Asias He cb7db47ae1 repair: Add incremental_mode option for tablet repair
This patch introduces a new `incremental_mode` parameter to the tablet
repair REST API, providing more fine-grained control over the
incremental repair process.

Previously, incremental repair was on and could not be turned off. This
change allows users to select from three distinct modes:

- `regular`: This is the default mode. It performs a standard
  incremental repair, processing only unrepaired sstables and skipping
  those that are already repaired. The repair state (`repaired_at`,
  `sstables_repaired_at`) is updated.

- `full`: This mode forces the repair to process all sstables, including
  those that have been previously repaired. This is useful when a full
  data validation is needed without disabling the incremental repair
  feature. The repair state is updated.

- `disabled`: This mode completely disables the incremental repair logic
  for the current repair operation. It behaves like a classic
  (pre-incremental) repair, and it does not update any incremental
  repair state (`repaired_at` in sstables or `sstables_repaired_at` in
  the system.tablets table).

The implementation includes:

- Adding the `incremental_mode` parameter to the
  `/storage_service/repair/tablet` API endpoint.
- Updating the internal repair logic to handle the different modes.
- Adding a new test case to verify the behavior of each mode.
- Updating the API documentation and developer documentation.

Building User Documentation

Prerequisites

  • Python
  • poetry
  • make

See the ScyllaDB Sphinx Theme prerequisites to check which versions of the above are currently required.

Mac OS X

You must have a working Homebrew in order to install the needed tools.

You also need the standard utility make.

Check if you have these two items with the following commands:

brew help
make -h

Linux Distributions

Building the user docs should work out of the box on most Linux distributions.

Windows

Use "Bash on Ubuntu on Windows" for the same tools and capabilities as on Linux distributions.

Building the Docs

  1. Run make preview to build the documentation.
  2. Preview the built documentation locally at http://127.0.0.1:5500/.

Cleanup

You can clean up all the build products and auto-installed Python stuff with:

make pristine
