RocksDB Options file format and its serialization / deserialization. Summary: This patch defines the format of RocksDB options file, which follows the INI file format, and implements functions for its serialization and deserialization. An example RocksDB options file can be found in examples/rocksdb_option_file_example.ini. A typical RocksDB options file has three sections, which are Version, DBOptions, and more than one CFOptions. The RocksDB options file in general follows the basic INI file format with the following extensions / modifications: * Escaped characters We escaped the following characters: - \n -- line feed - new line - \r -- carriage return - \\ -- backslash \ - \: -- colon symbol : - \# -- hash tag # * Comments We support # style comments. Comments can appear at the ending part of a line. * Statements A statement is of the form option_name = value. Each statement contains a '=', where extra white-spaces are supported. However, we don't support multi-lined statement. Furthermore, each line can only contain at most one statement. * Section Sections are of the form [SecitonTitle "SectionArgument"], where section argument is optional. * List We use colon-separated string to represent a list. For instance, n1:n2:n3:n4 is a list containing four values. Below is an example of a RocksDB options file: [Version] rocksdb_version=4.0.0 options_file_version=1.0 [DBOptions] max_open_files=12345 max_background_flushes=301 [CFOptions "default"] [CFOptions "the second column family"] [CFOptions "the third column family"] Test Plan: Added many tests in options_test.cc Reviewers: igor, IslamAbdelRahman, sdong, anthony Reviewed By: anthony Subscribers: maykov, dhruba, leveldb Differential Revision: https://reviews.facebook.net/D46059

# This is a RocksDB option file.
#
# A typical RocksDB options file has three sections, which are
# Version, DBOptions, and more than one CFOptions. The RocksDB
# options file in general follows the basic INI file format
# with the following extensions / modifications:
#
# * Escaped characters
# We escaped the following characters:
# - \n -- line feed - new line
# - \r -- carriage return
# - \\ -- backslash \
# - \: -- colon symbol :
# - \# -- hash tag #
# * Comments
# We support # style comments. Comments can appear at the ending
# part of a line.
# * Statements
# A statement is of the form option_name = value.
# Each statement contains a '=', where extra white-spaces
# are supported. However, we don't support multi-lined statement.
# Furthermore, each line can only contain at most one statement.
# * Section
# Sections are of the form [SecitonTitle "SectionArgument"],
# where section argument is optional.
# * List
# We use colon-separated string to represent a list.
# For instance, n1:n2:n3:n4 is a list containing four values.
#
# Below is an example of a RocksDB options file:
[Version]
# The Version section stores the version information about rocksdb
# and option file. This is used for handling potential format
# change in the future.
rocksdb_version=4.0.0 # We support "#" style comment.
options_file_version=1.0
[DBOptions]
# Followed by the Version section is the DBOptions section.
# The value of an options can be assigned using a statement.
# Note that for those options that is not set in the options file,
# we will use the default value.
max_open_files=12345
max_background_flushes=301
[CFOptions "default"]
# ColumnFamilyOptions section must follow the format of
# [CFOptions "cf name"]. If a rocksdb instance
# has multiple column families, then its CFOptions must be
# specified in the same order as column family creation order.
[CFOptions "the second column family"]
# Each column family must have one section in the RocksDB option
# file even all the options of this column family are set to
# default value.
[CFOptions "the third column family"]
