# Rocksdb Change Log
Modifed the LRU cache eviction code so that it doesn't evict blocks which have exteranl references
Summary:
Currently, blocks which have more than one reference (ie referenced by something other than cache itself) are evicted from cache. This doesn't make much sense:
- blocks are still in RAM, so the RAM usage reported by the cache is incorrect
- if the same block is needed by another iterator, it will be loaded and decompressed again
This diff changes the reference counting scheme a bit. Previously, if the cache contained the block, this was accounted for in its refcount. After this change, the refcount is only used to track external references. There is a boolean flag which indicates whether or not the block is contained in the cache.
This diff also changes how LRU list is used. Previously, both hashtable and the LRU list contained all blocks. After this change, the LRU list contains blocks with the refcount==0, ie those which can be evicted from the cache.
Note that this change still allows for cache to grow beyond its capacity. This happens when all blocks are pinned (ie refcount>0). This is consistent with the current behavior. The cache's insert function never fails. I spent lots of time trying to make table_reader and other places work with the insert which might failed. It turned out to be pretty hard. It might really destabilize some customers, so finally, I decided against doing this.
table_cache_remove_scan_count_limit option will be unneeded after this change, but I will remove it in the following diff, if this one gets approved
Test Plan: Ran tests, made sure they pass

### Unreleased Features
* Changed the LRU caching algorithm so that referenced blocks (by iterators) are never evicted
2014-12-15 11:29:41 +01:00
* By default we now optimize the compilation for the compilation platform (using -march=native). If you want to build portable binary, use 'PORTABLE=1' before the make command.
2014-12-17 01:57:22 +01:00
* We now allow level-compaction to place files in different paths by
specifying them in db_paths along with the target_size.
Lower numbered levels will be placed earlier in the db_paths and higher
numbered levels will be placed later in the db_paths vector.
2014-12-22 12:04:45 +01:00
* Potentially big performance improvements if you're using RocksDB with lots of column families (100-1000)

function as hash function. It results in QPS increase from 3.7M/s to
~4.3M/s. I did not observe improvement for end to end RocksDB
performance. This may be caused by other bottlenecks that I will address
in a separate diff.

* If you're using RocksDB on ARM platforms and you're using default bloom filter, there is a disk format change you need to be aware of. There are three steps you need to do when you convert to new release: 1. turn off filter policy, 2. compact the whole database, 3. turn on filter policy
Push- instead of pull-model for managing Write stalls
Summary:
Introducing WriteController, which is a source of truth about per-DB write delays. Let's define an DB epoch as a period where there are no flushes and compactions (i.e. new epoch is started when flush or compaction finishes). Each epoch can either:
* proceed with all writes without delay
* delay all writes by fixed time
* stop all writes
The three modes are recomputed at each epoch change (flush, compaction), rather than on every write (which is currently the case).
When we have a lot of column families, our current pull behavior adds a big overhead, since we need to loop over every column family for every write. With new push model, overhead on Write code-path is minimal.
This is just the start. Next step is to also take care of stalls introduced by slow memtable flushes. The final goal is to eliminate function MakeRoomForWrite(), which currently needs to be called for every column family by every write.
Test Plan: make check for now. I'll add some unit tests later. Also, perf test.

### Behavior changes
* We have refactored our system of stalling writes. Any stall-related statistics' meanings are changed. Instead of per-write stall counts, we now count stalls per-epoch, where epochs are periods between flushes and compactions. You'll find more information in our Tuning Perf Guide once we release RocksDB 3.6.

2014-09-24 22:12:16 +02:00
### Public API changes
2014-09-22 20:15:03 +02:00
* Change target_file_size_base type to uint64_t from int.
2014-09-24 22:12:16 +02:00
* Remove allow_thread_local. This feature was proved to be stable, so we are turning it always-on.
2014-09-04 02:03:30 +02:00
## 3.5.0 (9/3/2014)
2014-07-15 00:34:30 +02:00
### New Features
2014-08-19 00:19:17 +02:00
* Add include/utilities/write_batch_with_index.h, providing a utilitiy class to query data out of WriteBatch when building it.
2014-08-26 23:15:00 +02:00
* Move BlockBasedTable related options to BlockBasedTableOptions from Options. Change corresponding JNI interface. Options affected include:
no_block_cache, block_cache, block_cache_compressed, block_size, block_size_deviation, block_restart_interval, filter_policy, whole_key_filtering. filter_policy is changed to shared_ptr from a raw pointer.
* Remove deprecated options: disable_seek_compaction and db_stats_log_interval
* OptimizeForPointLookup() takes one parameter for block cache size. It now builds hash index, bloom filter, and block cache.
2014-08-19 01:27:08 +02:00
### Public API changes
* The Prefix Extractor used with V2 compaction filters is now passed user key to SliceTransform::Transform instead of unparsed RocksDB key.

### New Features
2014-07-15 00:34:30 +02:00
* Support Multiple DB paths in universal style compactions
2014-07-19 02:23:19 +02:00
* Add feature of storing plain table index and bloom filter in SST file.
2014-08-01 15:41:48 +02:00
* CompactRange() will never output compacted files to level 0. This used to be the case when all the compaction input files were at level 0.
2014-09-04 19:48:24 +02:00
* Added iterate_upper_bound to define the extent upto which the forward iterator will return entries. This will prevent iterating over delete markers and overwritten entries for edge cases where you want to break out the iterator anyways. This may improve perfomance in case there are a large number of delete markers or overwritten entries.
2014-07-15 00:34:30 +02:00
### Public API changes

2014-07-10 22:35:04 +02:00
## 3.3.0 (7/10/2014)
2014-07-01 20:05:05 +02:00
### New Features
2014-07-10 22:35:04 +02:00
* Added JSON API prototype.
2014-07-01 20:05:05 +02:00
* HashLinklist reduces performance outlier caused by skewed bucket by switching data in the bucket from linked list to skip list. Add parameter threshold_use_skiplist in NewHashLinkListRepFactory().
2014-07-04 00:56:03 +02:00
* RocksDB is now able to reclaim storage space more effectively during the compaction process. This is done by compensating the size of each deletion entry by the 2X average value size, which makes compaction to be triggerred by deletion entries more easily.
* Add TimeOut API to write. Now WriteOptions have a variable called timeout_hint_us. With timeout_hint_us set to non-zero, any write associated with this timeout_hint_us may be aborted when it runs longer than the specified timeout_hint_us, and it is guaranteed that any write completes earlier than the specified time-out will not be aborted due to the time-out condition.
2014-07-08 21:31:49 +02:00
* Add a rate_limiter option, which controls total throughput of flush and compaction. The throughput is specified in bytes/sec. Flush always has precedence over compaction when available bandwidth is constrained.
2014-06-23 20:12:54 +02:00
2014-07-10 22:35:04 +02:00
### Public API changes

2014-06-23 20:12:54 +02:00
## 3.2.0 (06/20/2014)
2014-06-20 10:23:02 +02:00
### Public API changes
* We removed seek compaction as a concept from RocksDB because:
1) It makes more sense for spinning disk workloads, while RocksDB is primarily designed for flash and memory,
2) It added some complexity to the important code-paths,
3) None of our internal customers were really using it.
Because of that, Options::disable_seek_compaction is now obsolete. It is still a parameter in Options, so it does not break the build, but it does not have any effect. We plan to completely remove it at some point, so we ask users to please remove this option from your code base.
2014-06-23 20:12:54 +02:00
* Add two paramters to NewHashLinkListRepFactory() for logging on too many entries in a hash bucket when flushing.
2014-06-23 20:20:40 +02:00
* Added new option BlockBasedTableOptions::hash_index_allow_collision. When enabled, prefix hash index for block-based table will not store prefix and allow hash collision, reducing memory consumption.
2014-06-23 20:12:54 +02:00
### New Features
* PlainTable now supports a new key encoding: for keys of the same prefix, the prefix is only written once. It can be enabled through encoding_type paramter of NewPlainTableFactory()
* Add AdaptiveTableFactory, which is used to convert from a DB of PlainTable to BlockBasedTabe, or vise versa. It can be created using NewAdaptiveTableFactory()
2014-06-20 10:23:02 +02:00
2014-06-23 20:20:40 +02:00
### Performance Improvements
* Tailing Iterator re-implemeted with ForwardIterator + Cascading Search Hint , see ~20% throughput improvement.

## 3.1.0 (05/21/2014)
TablePropertiesCollectorFactory
Summary:
This diff addresses task #4296714 and rethinks how users provide us with TablePropertiesCollectors as part of Options.
Here's description of task #4296714:
I'm debugging #4295529 and noticed that our count of user properties kDeletedKeys is wrong. We're sharing one single InternalKeyPropertiesCollector with all Table Builders. In LOG Files, we're outputting number of kDeletedKeys as connected with a single table, while it's actually the total count of deleted keys since creation of the DB.
For example, this table has 3155 entries and 1391828 deleted keys.
The problem with current approach that we call methods on a single TablePropertiesCollector for all the tables we create. Even worse, we could do it from multiple threads at the same time and TablePropertiesCollector has no way of knowing which table we're calling it for.
Good part: Looks like nobody inside Facebook is using Options::table_properties_collectors. This means we should be able to painfully change the API.
In this change, I introduce TablePropertiesCollectorFactory. For every table we create, we call `CreateTablePropertiesCollector`, which creates a TablePropertiesCollector for a single table. We then use it sequentially from a single thread, which means it doesn't have to be thread-safe.
Test Plan:
Added a test in table_properties_collector_test that fails on master (build two tables, assert that kDeletedKeys count is correct for the second one).
Also, all other tests

* Implemented [TailingIterator ](https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/wiki/Tailing-Iterator ), a special type of iterator that
doesn't create a snapshot (can be used to read newly inserted data)
and is optimized for doing sequential reads.
* Added property block for table, which allows (1) a table to store
its metadata and (2) end user to collect and store properties they
are interested in.
* Enabled caching index and filter block in block cache (turned off by default).
* Supported error report when doing manual compaction.
* Supported additional Linux platform flavors and Mac OS.
* Put with `SliceParts` - Variant of `Put()` that gathers output like `writev(2)`
* Bug fixes and code refactor for compatibility with upcoming Column
Family feature.
### Performance Improvements
* Huge benchmark performance improvements by multiple efforts. For example, increase in readonly QPS from about 530k in 2.6 release to 1.1 million in 2.7 [1]
* Speeding up a way RocksDB deleted obsolete files - no longer listing the whole directory under a lock -- decrease in p99
* Use raw pointer instead of shared pointer for statistics: [5b825d ](https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/commit/5b825d6964e26ec3b4bb6faa708ebb1787f1d7bd ) -- huge increase in performance -- shared pointers are slow
* Optimized locking for `Get()` -- [1fdb3f ](https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/commit/1fdb3f7dc60e96394e3e5b69a46ede5d67fb976c ) -- 1.5x QPS increase for some workloads
* Cache speedup - [e8d40c3 ](https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/commit/e8d40c31b3cca0c3e1ae9abe9b9003b1288026a9 )
* Implemented autovector, which allocates first N elements on stack. Most of vectors in RocksDB are small. Also, we never want to allocate heap objects while holding a mutex. -- [c01676e4 ](https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/commit/c01676e46d3be08c3c140361ef1f5884f47d3b3c )
* Lots of efforts to move malloc, memcpy and IO outside of locks
