‘exit’ is pulled in for the interactive interpreter as a side effect
of the site module; this can be disabled with python -S and shouldn’t
be relied on.
Also, use the NoReturn type where appropriate.

Starting with wal-g 2.0.1, they provide `aarch64` assets[^1].
Effectively revert d7b59c86ce, and use
the pre-built binary for `aarch64` rather than spend a bunch of space
and time having to build it from source.

A number of autossh connections are already left open for
port-forwarding Munin ports; autossh starts the connections and
ensures that they are automatically restarted if they are severed.
However, this represents a missed opportunity. Nagios's monitoring
uses a large number of SSH connections to the remote hosts to run
commands on them; each of these connections requires doing a complete
SSH handshake and authentication, which can have non-trivial network
latency, particularly for hosts which may be located far away, in a
network topology sense (up to 1s for a no-op command!).
Use OpenSSH's ability to multiplex multiple connections over a single
socket, to reuse the already-established connection. We leave an
explicit `ControlMaster no` in the general configuration, and not
`auto`, as we do not wish any of the short-lived Nagios connections to
get promoted to being a control socket if the autossh is not running
for some reason.
We enable protocol-level keepalives, to give a better chance of the
socket being kept open.
These hosts were excluded from `zulipconf_nagios_hosts` in
8cff27f67d, because it was replicating the previously hard-coded
behaviour exactly. That behaviour was an accident of history, in that
4fbe201187 and before had simply not monitored hosts of this class.
There is no reason to not add SSH tunnels and munin monitoring for
these hosts; stop skipping them.
Since Django factors request.is_secure() into its CSRF check, we need
this to tell it to consider requests forwarded from nginx to Tornado
as secure.

One should now be able to configure a regex by appending _regex to the
port number:
[tornado_sharding]
9802_regex = ^[l-p].*\.zulipchat\.com$

Since Puppet doesn’t manage the contents of nginx_sharding.conf after
its initial creation, it needs to be renamed so we can give it
different default contents.

Some legitimate requests in Zulip can take more than 20s to be
processed, and we don't have a current problem where having a 20s
limit here is preventing a problem.
The `needrestart` tool added in 22.04 is useful in terms of listing
which services may need to be restarted to pick up updated libraries.
However, it prompts about the current state of services needing
restart for *every* subsequent `apt-get upgrade`, and defaulting core
services to restarting requires carefully manually excluding them
every time, at risk of causing an unscheduled outage.
Build a list of default-off services based on the list in
unattended-upgrades.
The default value in uwsgi is 4k; receiving more than this amount from
nginx leads to a 502 response (though, happily, the backend uwsgi does not
terminate).
ab18dbfde5 originally increased it from the unstated uwsgi default
of 4096, to 8192; b1da797955 made it configurable, in order to allow
requests from clients with many cookies, without causing 502's[1].
nginx defaults to a limitation of 1k, with 4 additional 8k header
lines allowed[2]; any request larger than that returns a response of
`400 Request Header Or Cookie Too Large`. The largest header size
theoretically possible from nginx, by default, is thus 33k, though
that would require packing four separate headers to exactly 8k each.
Remove the gap between nginx's limit and uwsgi's, which could trigger
502s, by removing the uwsgi configurability, and setting a 64k size in
uwsgi (the max allowable), which is larger than nginx's default limit.
uWSGI's documentation of `buffer-size` ([3], [4]) also notes that "It
is a security measure too, so adapt to your app needs instead of
maxing it out." Python has no security issues with buffers of 64k,
and there is no appreciable memory footprint difference to having a
larger buffer available in uwsgi.

This check loads Django, and as such must be run as the zulip user.
Repeat the same pattern used elsewhere in nagios, of writing a state
file, which is read by `check_cron_file`.
Replication checks should only run on primary and replicas, not
standalone hosts; while `autovac_freeze` currently only runs on
primary hosts, it functions identically on replicas, and is fine to
run there.
Make `autovac_freeze` run on all `postgresql` hosts, and make
standalone hosts no longer `postgres_primary`, so they do not fail the
replication tests.
These style of checks just look for matching process names using
`check_remote_arg_string`, which dates to 8edbd64bb8. These were
added because the original two (`missedmessage_emails` and
`slow_queries`) did not create consumers, instead polling for events.
Switch these to checking the queue consumer counts that the
`check-rabbitmq-consumers` check is already writing out. Since the
`missedmessage_emails` was _already_ checked via the consumer check, a
duplicate is not added.
Even the `pageable_servers` group did not page for high load -- in
part because what was "high" depends on the servers. Set slightly
better limits based on server role.
`zmirror` itself was `zmirror_main` + `zmirrorp` but was unused; we
consistently just use the term `zmirror` for the non-personals server,
so use it as the hostgroup name.
The Redis nagios checks themselves are done against `redis` +
`frontends` groups, so there is no need to misleadingly place
`frontends` in the `redis` hostgroup.
