This is the 2nd installment for the AccountsDb replication.
Summary of Changes
The basic google protocol buffer protocol for replicating updated slots and accounts. tonic/tokio is used for transporting the messages.
The basic framework of the client and server for replicating slots and accounts -- the persisting of accounts in the replica-side will be done at the next PR -- right now -- the accounts are streamed to the replica-node and dumped. Replication for information about Bank is also not done in this PR -- to be addressed in the next PR to limit the change size.
Functionality used by both the client and server side are encapsulated in the replica-lib crate.
There is no impact to the existing validator by default.
Tests:
Observe the confirmed slots replicated to the replica-node.
Observe the accounts for the confirmed slot are received at the replica-node side.
AccountsBackgroundService now knows about incremental snapshots. It is
now also in charge of deciding if an AccountsPackage is destined to be a
SnapshotPackage or not (or just used by AccountsHashVerifier).
!!! New behavior changes !!!
Taking snapshots (both bank and archive) **MUST** succeed.
This is required because of how the last full snapshot slot is
calculated, which is used by AccountsBackgroundService when calling
`clean_accounts()`.
File system calls are now unwrapped and will result in a crash. As Trent told me:
>Well I think if a snapshot fails due to some IO error, it's very likely that the operator is going to have to intervene before it works. We should exit error in this case, otherwise the validator might happily spin for several more hours, never successfully writing a complete snapshot, before something else brings it down. This would leave the validator's last local snapshot many more slots behind than it would be had we exited outright and potentially force the operator to abandon ledger continuity in favor of a quick catchup
Other errors will set the `exit` flag to `true`, and the node will gracefully shutdown.
Fixes#19167Fixes#19168
* Putting stores satisfying future shrink into the candidate list.
* Fixed unit tests for select_shrink_candidates
* Added metrics on stores readded back for next round
* Ehance the metrics on accountsdb to report the total bytes and alive bytes and alive ratio
* Enhance select_shrink_candidates metrics
#### Problem
Snapshot names are overloaded, and there are multiple terms that mean the same thing. This is confusing. Here's a list of ones in the codebase that I've found:
```
- snapshot_dir
- snapshots_dir
- snapshot_path
- snapshot_output_dir
- snapshot_package_output_path
- snapshot_archives_dir
```
#### Summary of Changes
For all the ones that are about the directory where snapshot archives are stored, ensure they are `snapshot_archives_dir`. For the ones about the (bank) snapshots directory, set to `bank_snapshots_dir`.
