8ae905ed63 Fix unit tests for universal compaction (step 2)
Summary:
Continue fixing existing unit tests for universal compaction. I have
tried to apply universal compaction to all unit tests those haven't
called ChangeOptions(). I left a few which are either apparently not
applicable to universal compaction (because they check files/keys/values
at level 1 or above levels), or apparently not related to compaction
(e.g., open a file, open a db).

I also add a new unit test for universal compaction.

Good news is I didn't see any bugs during this round.

Test Plan: Ran "make all check" yesterday. Has rebased and is rerunning

3a3b1c3e6c [RocksDB] Improve manifest dump to print internal keys in hex for version edits.
Summary: Currently, VersionEdit::DebugString always display internal keys in the original ascii format. This could cause manifest dump to be truncated if internal keys contain special charactors (like null). Also added an option --input_key_hex for ldb idump to indicate that the passed in user keys are in hex.

Test Plan: run ldb manifest_dump

17b8f786a3 Fix unit tests/bugs for universal compaction (first step)
Summary:
This is the first step to fix unit tests and bugs for universal
compactiion. I added universal compaction option to ChangeOptions(), and
fixed all unit tests calling ChangeOptions(). Some of these tests
obviously assume more than 1 level and check file number/values in level
1 or above levels. I set kSkipUniversalCompaction for these tests.

The major bug I found is manual compaction with universal compaction never stops. I have put a fix for
it.

I have also set universal compaction as the default compaction and found
at least 20+ unit tests failing. I haven't looked into the details. The
next step is to check all unit tests without calling ChangeOptions().

Test Plan: make all check

c2d7826ced [RocksDB] [MergeOperator] The new Merge Interface! Uses merge sequences.
Summary:
Here are the major changes to the Merge Interface. It has been expanded
to handle cases where the MergeOperator is not associative. It does so by stacking
up merge operations while scanning through the key history (i.e.: during Get() or
Compaction), until a valid Put/Delete/end-of-history is encountered; it then
applies all of the merge operations in the correct sequence starting with the
base/sentinel value.

I have also introduced an "AssociativeMerge" function which allows the user to
take advantage of associative merge operations (such as in the case of counters).
The implementation will always attempt to merge the operations/operands themselves
together when they are encountered, and will resort to the "stacking" method if
and only if the "associative-merge" fails.

This implementation is conjectured to allow MergeOperator to handle the general
case, while still providing the user with the ability to take advantage of certain
efficiencies in their own merge-operator / data-structure.

NOTE: This is a preliminary diff. This must still go through a lot of review,
revision, and testing. Feedback welcome!

Test Plan:
  -This is a preliminary diff. I have only just begun testing/debugging it.
  -I will be testing this with the existing MergeOperator use-cases and unit-tests
(counters, string-append, and redis-lists)
  -I will be "desk-checking" and walking through the code with the help gdb.
  -I will find a way of stress-testing the new interface / implementation using
db_bench, db_test, merge_test, and/or db_stress.
  -I will ensure that my tests cover all cases: Get-Memtable,
Get-Immutable-Memtable, Get-from-Disk, Iterator-Range-Scan, Flush-Memtable-to-L0,
Compaction-L0-L1, Compaction-Ln-L(n+1), Put/Delete found, Put/Delete not-found,
end-of-history, end-of-file, etc.
  -A lot of feedback from the reviewers.

1036537c94 Add soft and hard rate limit support
Summary:
This diff adds support for both soft and hard rate limiting. The following changes are included:

1) Options.rate_limit is renamed to Options.hard_rate_limit.
2) Options.rate_limit_delay_milliseconds is renamed to Options.rate_limit_delay_max_milliseconds.
3) Options.soft_rate_limit is added.
4) If the maximum compaction score is > hard_rate_limit and rate_limit_delay_max_milliseconds == 0, then writes are delayed by 1 ms at a time until the max compaction score falls below hard_rate_limit.
5) If the max compaction score is > soft_rate_limit but <= hard_rate_limit, then writes are delayed by 0-1 ms depending on how close we are to hard_rate_limit.
6) Users can disable 4 by setting hard_rate_limit = 0. They can add a limit to the maximum amount of time waited by setting rate_limit_delay_max_milliseconds > 0. Thus, the old behavior can be preserved by setting soft_rate_limit = 0, which is the default.

9700677a2b Slow down writes gradually rather than suddenly
Summary:
Currently, when a certain number of level0 files (level0_slowdown_writes_trigger) are present, RocksDB will slow down each write by 1ms. There is a second limit of level0 files at which RocksDB will stop writes altogether (level0_stop_writes_trigger).

This patch enables the user to supply a third parameter specifying the number of files at which Rocks will start slowing down writes (level0_start_slowdown_writes). When this number is reached, Rocks will slow down writes as a quadratic function of level0_slowdown_writes_trigger - num_level0_files.

For some workloads, this improves latency and throughput. I will post some stats momentarily in https://our.intern.facebook.com/intern/tasks/?t=2613384.

Summary:

Test Plan:

For passing paramter from configured option to Arena, I tried tests like:

  TEST(DBTest, Arena_Option) {
  std::string dbname = test::TmpDir() + "/db_arena_option_test";
  DestroyDB(dbname, Options());

  DB* db = nullptr;
  Options opts;
  opts.create_if_missing = true;
  opts.arena_block_size = 1000000; // tested 99, 999999
  Status s = DB::Open(opts, dbname, &db);
  db->Put(WriteOptions(), "a", "123");
  }

and printed some debug info. The results look good. Any suggestion for such a unit-test?

Dhruba and I looked at the sequence number generation part of the code. It seems fixable. Note that if WAL was successful and insert into memtable was not, we would be in an unfortunate state. The approach in this diff is : IO error is expected and error status will be returned to client, sequence number will not be advanced; In-mem error is not expected and we panic.

47c4191fe8 Reduce write amplification by merging files in L0 back into L0
Summary:
There is a new option called hybrid_mode which, when switched on,
causes HBase style compactions.  Files from L0 are
compacted back into L0. This meat of this compaction algorithm
is in PickCompactionHybrid().

All files reside in L0. That means all files have overlapping
keys. Each file has a time-bound, i.e. each file contains a
range of keys that were inserted around the same time. The
start-seqno and the end-seqno refers to the timeframe when
these keys were inserted.  Files that have contiguous seqno
are compacted together into a larger file. All files are
ordered from most recent to the oldest.

The current compaction algorithm starts to look for
candidate files starting from the most recent file. It continues to
add more files to the same compaction run as long as the
sum of the files chosen till now is smaller than the next
candidate file size. This logic needs to be debated
and validated.

The above logic should reduce write amplification to a
large extent... will publish numbers shortly.

Test Plan: dbstress runs for 6 hours with no data corruption (tested so far).

554c06dd18 Reduce write amplification by merging files in L0 back into L0
Summary:
There is a new option called hybrid_mode which, when switched on,
causes HBase style compactions.  Files from L0 are
compacted back into L0. This meat of this compaction algorithm
is in PickCompactionHybrid().

All files reside in L0. That means all files have overlapping
keys. Each file has a time-bound, i.e. each file contains a
range of keys that were inserted around the same time. The
start-seqno and the end-seqno refers to the timeframe when
these keys were inserted.  Files that have contiguous seqno
are compacted together into a larger file. All files are
ordered from most recent to the oldest.

The current compaction algorithm starts to look for
candidate files starting from the most recent file. It continues to
add more files to the same compaction run as long as the
sum of the files chosen till now is smaller than the next
candidate file size. This logic needs to be debated
and validated.

The above logic should reduce write amplification to a
large extent... will publish numbers shortly.
