62e7583f94 enhance dbstress to simulate hard crash
Summary:
dbstress has an option to reopen the database. Make it such that the
previous handle is not closed before we reopen, this simulates a
situation similar to a process crash.

Added new api to DMImpl to remove the lock file.

Test Plan: run db_stress

5d16e503a6 Improved CompactionFilter api: pass in a opaque argument to CompactionFilter invocation.
Summary:
There are applications that operate on multiple leveldb instances.
These applications will like to pass in an opaque type for each
leveldb instance and this type should be passed back to the application
with every invocation of the CompactionFilter api.

Test Plan: Enehanced unit test for opaque parameter to CompactionFilter.

95dda37858 Move filesize-based-sorting to outside the Mutex
Summary:
When a new version is created, we sort all the files at every
level based on their size. This is necessary because we want
to compact the largest file first. The sorting takes quite a
bit of CPU.

Moved the sorting code to be outside the mutex. Also, the
earlier code was sorting files at all levels but we do not
need to sort the highest-number level because those files
are never the cause of any compaction. To reduce sorting
costs, we sort only the first few files in each level
because it is likely that those are the only files in that
level that will be picked for compaction.

At steady state, I have seen that this patch increase
throughout from 1500 writes/sec to 1700 writes/sec at the
end of a 72 hour run. The cpu saving by not sorting the
last level was not distinctive in this test run because
there were only 100K files in the highest numbered level.
I expect the cpu saving to be significant when the number of
files is much higher.

This is mostly an early preview and not ready for rigorous review.

With this patch, the writs/sec is now bottlenecked not by the sorting code but by GetOverlappingInputs. I am working on a patch to optimize GetOverlappingInputs.

5273c81483 Ability to invoke application hook for every key during compaction.
Summary:
There are certain use-cases where the application intends to
delete older keys aftre they have expired a certian time period.
One option for those applications is to periodically scan the
entire database and delete appropriate keys.

A better way is to allow the application to hook into the
compaction process. This patch allows the application to set
a method callback for every key that is being compacted. If
this method returns true, then the key is not preserved in
the output of the compaction.

Test Plan:
This is mostly to preview the proposed new public api.
Since it is a public api, please do due diligence on reviewing it.

I will be writing test cases for this api in mynext version of
this patch.

321dfdc3ae Allow having different compression algorithms on different levels.
Summary:
The leveldb API is enhanced to support different compression algorithms at
different levels.

This adds the option min_level_to_compress to db_bench that specifies
the minimum level for which compression should be done when
compression is enabled. This can be used to disable compression for levels
0 and 1 which are likely to suffer from stalls because of the CPU load
for memtable flushes and (L0,L1) compaction.  Level 0 is special as it
gets frequent memtable flushes. Level 1 is special as it frequently
gets all:all file compactions between it and level 0. But all other levels
could be the same. For any level N where N > 1, the rate of sequential
IO for that level should be the same. The last level is the
exception because it might not be full and because files from it are
not read to compact with the next larger level.

The same amount of time will be spent doing compaction at any
level N excluding N=0, 1 or the last level. By this standard all
of those levels should use the same compression. The difference is that
the loss (using more disk space) from a faster compression algorithm
is less significant for N=2 than for N=3. So we might be willing to
trade disk space for faster write rates with no compression
for L0 and L1, snappy for L2, zlib for L3. Using a faster compression
algorithm for the mid levels also allows us to reclaim some cpu
without trading off much loss in disk space overhead.

Also note that little is to be gained by compressing levels 0 and 1. For
a 4-level tree they account for 10% of the data. For a 5-level tree they
account for 1% of the data.

With compression enabled:
* memtable flush rate is ~18MB/second
* (L0,L1) compaction rate is ~30MB/second

With compression enabled but min_level_to_compress=2
* memtable flush rate is ~320MB/second
* (L0,L1) compaction rate is ~560MB/second

This practicaly takes the same code from https://reviews.facebook.net/D6225
but makes the leveldb api more general purpose with a few additional
lines of code.

Summary:
Adds a method that returns the score for the next level that most

Threads are put to sleep at the end of each stats interval until the score

The specified value must be > 1.0. Also adds the option --stats_per_interval
to enable additional metrics reported every stats interval.

e7206f43ee Improve statistics
Summary:
This adds more statistics to be reported by GetProperty("leveldb.stats").
The new stats include time spent waiting on stalls in MakeRoomForWrite.
This also includes the total amplification rate where that is:
    (#bytes of sequential IO during compaction) / (#bytes from Put)
This also includes a lot more data for the per-level compaction report.
* Rn(MB) - MB read from level N during compaction between levels N and N+1
* Rnp1(MB) - MB read from level N+1 during compaction between levels N and N+1
* Wnew(MB) - new data written to the level during compaction
* Amplify - ( Write(MB) + Rnp1(MB) ) / Rn(MB)
* Rn - files read from level N during compaction between levels N and N+1
* Rnp1 - files read from level N+1 during compaction between levels N and N+1
* Wnp1 - files written to level N+1 during compaction between levels N and N+1
* NewW - new files written to level N+1 during compaction
* Count - number of compactions done for this level

This is the new output from DB::GetProperty("leveldb.stats"). The old output stopped at Write(MB)

published in https://reviews.facebook.net/D5997.

Summary:
This patch allows compaction to occur in multiple background threads
concurrently.

If a manual compaction is issued, the system falls back to a
single-compaction-thread model. This is done to ensure correctess
and simplicity of code. When the manual compaction is finished,
the system resumes its concurrent-compaction mode automatically.

The updates to the manifest are done via group-commit approach.

a098207c95 Fixed unit test c_test by initializing logger=NULL.
Summary:
Fixed unit test c_test by initializing logger=NULL.

Removed "atomic" from last_log_ts so that unit tests do not require C11 compiler.
Anyway, last_log_ts is mostly used for logging, so it is ok if it is loosely
accurate.

Test Plan: run c_test

f4e7febf22 Record the version of the source repository that was used to build the leveldb library.
Summary: Record the version of the source that we are compiling. We keep a record of the git revision in util/version.cc. This source file is then built as a regular source file as part of the compilation process. One can run "strings executable_filename | grep _build_" to find the version of the source that we used to build the executable file.

Test Plan: none
