@dhruba, I'm not sure where we need to sync the directory. I implemented the function in Env() and added the dir sync just after we close the newly created file in the builder.
Should I also add FsyncDir() to new files that get created by a compaction?

Summary: On a shutdown, freeing memory takes a long time. If we're shutting down, we don't really care about memory leaks. I added a call to Cache that will avoid freeing all objects in cache.
Test Plan:
I created a script to test the speedup and demonstrate how to use the call: https://phabricator.fb.com/P3864368
Clean shutdown took 7.2 seconds, while fast and dirty one took 6.3 seconds. Unfortunately, the speedup is not that big, but should be bigger with bigger block_cache. I have set up the capacity to 80GB, but the script filled up only ~7GB.

Summary:
A lot of our code implicitly assumes number_levels to be static. ReduceNumberOfLevels() breaks that assumption. For example, after calling ReduceNumberOfLevels(), DBImpl::NumberLevels() will be different from VersionSet::NumberLevels(). This is dangerous. Thankfully, it's not in public headers and is only used from LDB cmd tool. LDB tool is only using it statically, i.e. it never calls it with running DB instance. With this diff, we make it explicitly static. This way, we can assume number_levels to be immutable and not break assumption that lot of our code is relying upon. LDB tool can still use the method.
Also, I removed the method from a separate file since it breaks filename completition. version_se<TAB> now completes to "version_set." instead of "version_set" (without the dot). I don't see a big reason that the function should be in a different file.

Summary:
This diff takes an even more aggressive way to inline the functions. A decent rule that I followed is "not inline a function if it is more than 10 lines long."
Normally optimizing code by inline is ugly and hard to control, but since one of our usecase has significant amount of CPU used in functions from coding.cc, I'd like to try this diff out.
Test Plan:
1. the size for some .o file increased a little bit, but most less than 1%. So I think the negative impact of inline is negligible.
2. As the regression test shows (ran for 10 times and I calculated the average number)

Summary:
Implement a mem table, in which keys are hashed based on prefixes. In each bucket, entries are organized in a sorted linked list. It has the same thread safety guarantee as skip list.
The motivation is to optimize memory usage for the case that prefix hashing is primary way of seeking to the entry. Compared to hash skip list implementation, this implementation is more memory efficient, but inside each bucket, search is always linear. The target scenario is that there are only very limited number of records in each hash bucket.

Summary:
In this diff I present you BackupableDB v1. You can easily use it to backup your DB and it will do incremental snapshots for you.
Let's first describe how you would use BackupableDB. It's inheriting StackableDB interface so you can easily construct it with your DB object -- it will add a method RollTheSnapshot() to the DB object. When you call RollTheSnapshot(), current snapshot of the DB will be stored in the backup dir. To restore, you can just call RestoreDBFromBackup() on a BackupableDB (which is a static method) and it will restore all files from the backup dir. In the next version, it will even support automatic backuping every X minutes.
There are multiple things you can configure:
1. backup_env and db_env can be different, which is awesome because then you can easily backup to HDFS or wherever you feel like.
2. sync - if true, it *guarantees* backup consistency on machine reboot
3. number of snapshots to keep - this will keep last N snapshots around if you want, for some reason, be able to restore from an earlier snapshot. All the backuping is done in incremental fashion - if we already have 00010.sst, we will not copy it again. *IMPORTANT* -- This is based on assumption that 00010.sst never changes - two files named 00010.sst from the same DB will always be exactly the same. Is this true? I always copy manifest, current and log files.
4. You can decide if you want to flush the memtables before you backup, or you're fine with backing up the log files -- either way, you get a complete and consistent view of the database at a time of backup.
5. More things you can find in BackupableDBOptions
Here is the directory structure I use:
backup_dir/CURRENT_SNAPSHOT - just 4 bytes holding the latest snapshot
0, 1, 2, ... - files containing serialized version of each snapshot - containing a list of files
files/*.sst - sst files shared between snapshots - if one snapshot references 00010.sst and another one needs to backup it from the DB, it will just reference the same file
files/ 0/, 1/, 2/, ... - snapshot directories containing private snapshot files - current, manifest and log files
All the files are ref counted and deleted immediatelly when they get out of scope.
Some other stuff in this diff:
1. Added GetEnv() method to the DB. Discussed with @haobo and we agreed that it seems right thing to do.
2. Fixed StackableDB interface. The way it was set up before, I was not able to implement BackupableDB.
Test Plan:
I have a unittest, but please don't look at this yet. I just hacked it up to help me with debugging. I will write a lot of good tests and update the diff.
