Summary:
When the manifest is getting rolled the following happens:
1) manifest_file_number_ is assigned to a new manifest number (even though the old one is still current)
2) mutex is unlocked
3) SetCurrentFile() creates temporary file manifest_file_number_.dbtmp
4) SetCurrentFile() renames manifest_file_number_.dbtmp to CURRENT
5) mutex is locked
If FindObsoleteFiles happens between (3) and (4) it will:
1) Delete manifest_file_number_.dbtmp (because it's not in pending_outputs_)
2) Delete old manifest (because the manifest_file_number_ already points to a new one)
I introduce the concept of prev_manifest_file_number_ that will avoid the race condition.
However, we should discuss the future of MANIFEST file rolling. We found some race conditions with it last week and who knows how many more are there. Nobody is using it in production because we don't trust the implementation. Should we even support it?

Summary:
@igor pointed out that there is a potential data race because of the way we use the newly introduced LogBuffer. After "bg_compaction_scheduled_--" or "bg_flush_scheduled_--", they can both become 0. As soon as the lock is released after that, DBImpl's deconstructor can go ahead and deconstruct all the states inside DB, including the info_log object hold in a shared pointer of the options object it keeps. At that point it is not safe anymore to continue using the info logger to write the delayed logs.
With the patch, lock is released temporarily for log buffer to be flushed before "bg_compaction_scheduled_--" or "bg_flush_scheduled_--". In order to make sure we don't miss any pending flush or compaction, a new flag bg_schedule_needed_ is added, which is set to be true if there is a pending flush or compaction but not scheduled because of the max thread limit. If the flag is set to be true, the scheduling function will be called before compaction or flush thread finishes.
Thanks @igor for this finding!

In DBImpl we keep track of some statistics internally and expose them via GetProperty(). This diff encapsulates all the internal statistics into a class InternalStatisics. Most of it is copy/paste.
Apart from cleaning up db_impl.cc, this diff is also necessary for Column families, since every column family should have its own CompactionStats, MakeRoomForWrite-stall stats, etc. It's much easier to keep track of it in every column family if it's nicely encapsulated in its own class.

Summary:
MemTableListVersion is to MemTableList what Version is to VersionSet. I took almost the same ideas to develop MemTableListVersion. The reason is to have copying std::list done in background, while flushing, rather than in foreground (MultiGet() and NewIterator()) under a mutex! Also, whenever we copied MemTableList, we copied also some MemTableList metadata (flush_requested_, commit_in_progress_, etc.), which was wasteful.
This diff avoids std::list copy under a mutex in both MultiGet() and NewIterator(). I created a small database with some number of immutable memtables, and creating 100.000 iterators in a single-thread (!) decreased from {188739, 215703, 198028} to {154352, 164035, 159817}. A lot of the savings come from code under a mutex, so we should see much higher savings with multiple threads. Creating new iterator is very important to LogDevice team.
I also think this diff will make SuperVersion obsolete for performance reasons. I will try it in the next diff. SuperVersion gave us huge savings on Get() code path, but I think that most of the savings came from copying MemTableList under a mutex. If we had MemTableListVersion, we would never need to copy the entire object (like we still do in NewIterator() and MultiGet())
Test Plan: `make check` works. I will also do `make valgrind_check` before commit

Summary:
This diff does two things:
* Rethinks how we call Recover() with read_only option. Before, we call it with pointer to memtable where we'd like to apply those changes to. This memtable is set in db_impl_readonly.cc and it's actually DBImpl::mem_. Why don't we just apply updates to mem_ right away? It seems more intuitive.
* Changes when we apply updates to manifest. Before, the process is to recover all the logs, flush it to sst files and then do one giant commit that atomically adds all recovered sst files and sets the next log number. This works good enough, but causes some small troubles for my column family approach, since I can't have one VersionEdit apply to more than single column family[1]. The change here is to commit the files recovered from logs right away. Here is the state of the world before the change:
1. Recover log 5, add new sst files to edit
2. Recover log 7, add new sst files to edit
3. Recover log 8, add new sst files to edit
4. Commit all added sst files to manifest and mark log files 5, 7 and 8 as recoverd (via SetLogNumber(9) function)
After the change, we'll do:
1. Recover log 5, commit the new sst files and set log 5 as recovered
2. Recover log 7, commit the new sst files and set log 7 as recovered
3. Recover log 8, commit the new sst files and set log 8 as recovered
The added (small) benefit is that if we fail after (2), the new recovery will only have to recover log 8. In previous case, we'll have to restart the recovery from the beginning. The bigger benefit will be to enable easier integration of multiple column families in Recovery code path.
[1] I'm happy to dicuss this decison, but I believe this is the cleanest way to go. It also makes backward compatibility much easier. We don't have a requirement of adding multiple column families atomically.

Summary:
The way DBImpl::TEST_CompactRange() throttles down the number of bg compactions
can cause it to deadlock when CompactRange() is called concurrently from
multiple threads. Imagine a following scenario with only two threads
(max_background_compactions is 10 and bg_compaction_scheduled_ is initially 0):
1. Thread #1 increments bg_compaction_scheduled_ (to LargeNumber), sets
bg_compaction_scheduled_ to 9 (newvalue), schedules the compaction
(bg_compaction_scheduled_ is now 10) and waits for it to complete.
2. Thread #2 calls TEST_CompactRange(), increments bg_compaction_scheduled_
(now LargeNumber + 10) and waits on a cv for bg_compaction_scheduled_ to
drop to LargeNumber.
3. BG thread completes the first manual compaction, decrements
bg_compaction_scheduled_ and wakes up all threads waiting on bg_cv_.
Thread #1 runs, increments bg_compaction_scheduled_ by LargeNumber again
(now 2*LargeNumber + 9). Since that's more than LargeNumber + newvalue,
thread #2 also goes to sleep (waiting on bg_cv_), without resetting
bg_compaction_scheduled_.
This diff attempts to address the problem by introducing a new counter
bg_manual_only_ (when positive, MaybeScheduleFlushOrCompaction() will only
schedule manual compactions).
Test Plan:
I could pretty much consistently reproduce the deadlock with a program that
calls CompactRange(nullptr, nullptr) immediately after Write() from multiple
threads. This no longer happens with this patch.
Tests (make check) pass.

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.

It might speed things up a bit, but makes code uglier. I don't really like it.
Much better approach would be to abstract all file handling to a separate class. Think of it as layer between DBImpl and Env. Having a separate class deal with file namings and deletion would benefit both code cleanliness (especially with huge DBImpl) and speed things up. It will take a huge effort to do this, though.
