Prior efforts (PR#12435, PR#12470, PR#12486, PR#12583, PR#12667, PR#12903) removed some experimental features. This PR cleans up some leftover pieces.
I suppose this is basically a matter of historical interest at this point but those PRs were done purely by hand (ok, with like grep and a text editor) i.e. without any AI coding assistance. So it is not surprising that there is a few percent of leftover bits here and there.
Fixes:
Remove monitorBlobWorkers() and blobRestoreCommandActor() declarations that had no implementations (linker bombs if called)
Remove fast_restore from setclass help text (previously directed operators into an ASSERT(false) crash)
Dead knob removal (13 knobs):
12 blob worker ratekeeper knobs (BW_THROTTLING_ENABLED, TARGET_BW_LAG, etc.) and BLOB_WORKER_PAGE_CACHE
Remove bwLagTarget field from RatekeeperLimits and associated plumbing in Ratekeeper
Dead code removal:
4 never-incremented storage server counters (feedBytesFetched, changeFeedMutations, changeFeedMutationsDurable, changeFeedDiskReads)
Assigned-but-never-read nonExpanded variable in StorageServer::addMutation
ClusterNameRef/ClusterName typedefs, RestoreLoader/Applier/Master forward declarations
Dead schema strings (blob_worker_lag, blob_worker_missing, unreachable_blobManager_worker, metacluster_metrics_missing)
Dead cacheKeys*/cacheChange* function implementations in SystemData.cpp
Dead tenant group code in FuzzApiCorrectness.cpp
Dead fdbcli constants (msgClusterTypeKey, msgDataClustersKey) and blobrange history filter
Dead file removal:
contrib/mockkms/ -- unused Go mock KMS server
tests/fast/EncryptionUnitTests.toml -- tests a path (/blobCipher) that no longer exists
Delete encryption at rest in accordance with plans circulated in PR #12400.
Development of this PR was mostly straightforward. Several issues of note:
Upgrade tests which use Redwood want to use the old "encrypt by 0xFF XOR" test-only encoding/encryption algorithm. I wanted to delete that in main and did so. Upgrade tests have been modified not to use Redwood (storage engine 3, mentioned in various storageEngineExcludeTypes test options updates). 7.1 did not define storageEngineExcludeTypes. After some discussion we have decided to delete 7.1-based upgrade tests. 7.3- and 7.4-based upgrade tests remain in place.
Cross-version compatibility (such as it is, I assume in client library startup) remains super easy to break when deleting code. Tips: (A) removing unnecessary arguments to functions is bread and butter code editing when removing code, but if you find yourself removing arguments from a serializer() invocation, you might be breaking a protocol. (B) run ctest -R upgrade early and often.
An implication of these changes is that we are going to rely on the community to make us aware of any {upgrade+Redwood}-specific bugs. In other words, we are declining to continue to go out of our way to test functionality that we have no plans to use.
On the plus side this reclaims 15,000 more lines of code that we don't have to look at or think about, including in common areas such as commit proxy, backups, and generic storage server code.

* Checkpoint file removals and code edits for removing encryption at rest. Have not tried to compile this yet.
* Checkpoint some improvements. Still does not compile.
* Merging with upstream changes in copyright updates resurrected previously deleted files, so delete them again
* Checkpoint incremental progress towards getting this to compile
* Checkpoint more intermediate changes getting encryption at rest deleted. Still doesnt compile but getting closer.
* Changes sufficient to get things to compile with removal of encryption at rest. NOT TESTED.
* Delete encryptModes from toml files run by current fdbserver binaries; restarting tests using <= 7.4 binaries do need encryptModes to say disabled
* Avoid using MAX_ENCODING_VALUE for random purposes for which other solutions are more clear and generally better
* Stop using XOREncryption_TestOnly because that no longer works. Also I see no need to support it as it requires unneeded interfaces and test fixtures in order to actually work.
* Remove more page encryption stuff, and address some TODO(gglass) comments.
* debugging redwood failures
* Fix some misc simulation failures. Notably, disable storage engine type 3 (redwood) on upgrade tests, as it writes databases with encoding type 1 which is no longer supported
* Add a comment discussion deprecation options for fields in persistent metadata, and explain why we are merely renaming the member as deprecated and nothing anything else.
* Remove 7.1 upgrade tests. These tests enable Redwood and write databases with "0xFF XOR encryption" style encoding (encoding 1), which is removed in main.
* Improve comments
* Obligatory f3f commit. Format The Effin Source Files
* Delete more unneeded encryption stuff
* Put back about 1% of deleted code in a desperate attempt to unbreak broken protocol compatibility
* formatting
* Remove mentions of encryption at rest in backup related APIs
* Address misc review comments. Remove --encrypt-files backup option.
These features have been previously marked for deletion per PR #12400.
This change necessarily affects a lot of files. In general I found it preferable to cut along the FDB <-> tenant boundary, rather than try to cut tenant into multiple pieces, stitch the Frankenstein tenant implementation back together with FDB, and generally remove the limbs one by one. So it is a single big deletion.
Note that some tenant-related metadata has been written in a non-flag-controlled manner by prior releases and probably must be ignored indefinitely. Fortunately this is isolated to include/fdbclient/ClientLogEvents.h. (Details: deleting an Optional from a serialized struct results in deserialization of garbage in upgrade tests. The serialized nullopt to indicate "no Tenant" is formally part of FDB persistent metadata even in FDB clusters that never would have enabled the tenant feature.)
During the course of testing these changes, many interesting bugs were encountered. I won't discuss details of them here. Causes range from flat out damage (by me) to production code in the course of removing tenant related bits (mainly in NativeAPI.actor.cpp and CommitProxy.actor.cpp), damage to various workload files (particularly FuzzApiCorrectness.actor.cpp, which is very sensitive to changes), and many toml files needing updated test flags/options.

The updates in CMakeLists.txt and workloads/UnitTests.actor.cpp are basically trivial and mainly reflect

This is the first experimental feature to be deleted in the list published at PR #12400.
There is more code here than I anticipated. It is about 40,000 lines total, of which about three quarters are in dedicated files which I am deleting, and about one quarter is in shared files. That means about 10k lines in shared files, which is the stuff we tend to notice day to day (that plus the test failures on heretofore not-yet-disabled test cases, which I am now deleting).
I ran 3 million simulations, mostly against 692df86 or very similar code (differing by one TraceEvent). This was prior to syncing with upstream/main, which had no conflicts and from which I don't expect problems. The number of failures in these runs was about 8. We looked at them and believe there is a high likelihood that these are existing issues not related to the changes in this PR. More details on these failures can be found in docs linked from here: https://quip-apple.com/MN7gAyXLjgyn

* Encryption data at-rest db-config
Description
diff-1: Handle 'force' updates to encryption_at_rest db-config
Major changes proposed:
1. Introduce 'encryption_data_at_rest_mode" 'configure new'
option to enable Encryption data at-rest. The feature is disabled
by default.
2. The configuration is meant to be set at the time of database
creation, addition checks will be done to avoid updating the config
in subsequent PR.
3. DatabaseConfiguration validity check to account for "tenant_mode"
set to `required` if Encryption data at-rest is selected given
EncryptionDomain matches Tenant boundaries.
Testing
devCorrectness - 100K
* throttle the cluster when blob workers fall behind
* do not throttle on blob workers if they are not enabled
* remove an unnecessary actor
* fixed a compile error
* fetch blob worker metrics at the same interval as the rate is updated, avoid fetching the complete blob worker list too frequently
* fixed another compilation bug
* added a 5 second delay before bw throttling to prevent false positives caused by the 100e6 version jump during recovery. Lower the throttling thresholds to react much quicker to bw lag.
* fixed a number of problems
* changed the minBlobVersionRequest to look at storage server versions since this will be a lot more efficient
* fix: do not let desired go backwards
* fix: track the version of notAtLatest changefeeds for throttling
* ratekeeper now throttled blob workers by estimating the transaction per second throughput of the blob workers
* added metrics for blob worker change feeds
* added a knob to disable bw throttling
* fixed the transaction options in blob manager
