2d3468c293 MemTableIterator not to reference Memtable
Summary: In one of the perf, I shows 10%-25% CPU costs of MemTableIterator.Seek(), when doing dynamic prefix seek, are spent on checking whether we need to do bloom filter check or finding out the prefix extractor. Seems that  more level of pointer checking makes CPU cache miss more likely. This patch makes things slightly simpler by copying pointer of bloom of prefix extractor into the iterator.

Test Plan: make all check

0d755fff14 cache friendly blocked bloomfilter
Summary:
By constraining the probes within cache line(s), we can improve the
cache miss rate thus performance. This probably only makes sense for
in-memory workload so defaults the option to off.

Numbers and comparision can be found in wiki:

cda4006e87 Enhance partial merge to support multiple arguments
Summary:
* PartialMerge api now takes a list of operands instead of two operands.
* Add min_pertial_merge_operands to Options, indicating the minimum
  number of operands to trigger partial merge.
* This diff is based on Schalk's previous diff (D14601), but it also
  includes necessary changes such as updating the pure C api for
  partial merge.

Test Plan:
* make check all
* develop tests for cases where partial merge takes more than two
  operands.

TODOs (from Schalk):
* Add test with min_partial_merge_operands > 2.
* Perform benchmarks to measure the performance improvements (can probably
  use results of task #2837810.)
* Add description of problem to doc/index.html.
* Change wiki pages to reflect the interface changes.

a5fafd4f46 Correct the logic of MemTable::ShouldFlushNow().
Summary:
Memtable will now be forced to flush if the one of the following
conditions is met:
1. Already allocated more than write_buffer_size + 60% arena block size.
   (the overflowing condition)
2. Unable to safely allocate one more arena block without hitting the
   overflowing condition AND the unused allocated memory < 25% arena
   block size.

11da8bc5df A heuristic way to check if a memtable is full
Summary:
This is is based on https://reviews.facebook.net/D15027. It's not finished but I would like to give a prototype to avoid arena over-allocation while making better use of the already allocated memory blocks.

Instead of check approximate memtable size, we will take a deeper look at the arena, which incorporate essential idea that @sdong suggests: flush when arena has allocated its last and the last is "almost full"

8d007b4aaf Consolidate SliceTransform object ownership
Summary:
(1) Fix SanitizeOptions() to also check HashLinkList. The current
dynamic case just happens to work because the 2 classes have the same
layout.
(2) Do not delete SliceTransform object in HashSkipListFactory and
HashLinkListFactory destructor. Reason: SanitizeOptions() enforces
prefix_extractor and SliceTransform to be the same object when
Hash**Factory is used. This makes the behavior strange: when
Hash**Factory is used, prefix_extractor will be released by RocksDB. If
other memtable factory is used, prefix_extractor should be released by
user.

33042669f6 Reduce malloc of iterators in Get() code paths
Summary:
This patch optimized Get() code paths by avoiding malloc of iterators. Iterator creation is moved to mem table rep implementations, where a callback is called when any key is found. This is the same practice as what we do in (SST) table readers.

db_bench result for readrandom following a writeseq, with no compression, single thread and tmpfs, we see throughput improved to 144958 from 139027, about 3%.

1447bb5919 Allow callback to change size of existing value. Change return type of the callback function to an enum status to handle 3 cases.
Summary:
This diff fixes 2 hacks:
* The callback function can modify the existing value inplace, if the merged value fits within the existing buffer size. But currently the existing buffer size is not being modified. Now the callback recieves a int* allowing the size to be modified. Since size is encoded as a varint in the internal key for memtable. It might happen that the entire value might have be copied to the new location if the new size varint is smaller than the existing size varint.
* The callback function has 3 functionalities
    1. Modify existing buffer inplace, and update size correspondingly. Now to indicate that, Returns 1.
    2. Generate a new buffer indicating merged value. Returns 2.
    3. Fails to do either of above, based on whatever application logic. Returns 0.

Test Plan: Just make all for now. I'm adding another unit test to test each scenario.

Summary:
shared_ptr is slower than unique_ptr (which literally comes with no performance cost compare with raw pointers).

055e6df45b VersionEdit not to take NumLevels()
Summary:
I will submit a sequence of diffs that are preparing master branch for column families. There are a lot of implicit assumptions in the code that are making column family implementation hard. If I make the change only in column family branch, it will make merging back to master impossible.

Most of the diffs will be simple code refactorings, so I hope we can have fast turnaround time. Feel free to grab me in person to discuss any of them.

This diff removes number of level check from VersionEdit. It is used only when VersionEdit is read, not written, but has to be set when it is written. I believe it is a right thing to make VersionEdit dumb and check consistency on the caller side. This will also make it much easier to implement Column Families, since different column families can have different number of levels.

a09ee1069d Improve RocksDB "get" performance by computing merge result in memtable
Summary:
Added an option (max_successive_merges) that can be used to specify the
maximum number of successive merge operations on a key in the memtable.
This can be used to improve performance of the "get" operation. If many
successive merge operations are performed on a key, the performance of "get"
operations on the key deteriorates, as the value has to be computed for each
"get" operation by applying all the successive merge operations.

Summary:
In some places we have NotFound status created with empty message, but it doesn't avoid a malloc. With this patch, the malloc is avoided for that case.

The motivation of it is that I found in db_bench readrandom test when all keys are not existing, about 4% of the total running time is spent on malloc of Status, plus a similar amount of CPU spent on free of them, which is not necessary.

Summary:
Currently for each put, a fresh memory is allocated, and a new entry is added to the memtable with a new sequence number irrespective of whether the key already exists in the memtable. This diff is an attempt to update the value inplace for existing keys. It currently handles a very simple case:
1. Key already exists in the current memtable. Does not inplace update values in immutable memtable or snapshot
2. Latest value type is a 'put' ie kTypeValue
3. New value size is less than existing value, to avoid reallocating memory

TODO: For a put of an existing key, deallocate memory take by values, for other value types till a kTypeValue is found, ie. remove kTypeMerge.
TODO: Update the transaction log, to allow consistent reload of the memtable.

Test Plan: Added a unit test verifying the inplace update. But some other unit tests broken due to invalid sequence number checks. WIll fix them next.

74781a0c49 Add three new MemTableRep's
Summary:
This patch adds three new MemTableRep's: UnsortedRep, PrefixHashRep, and VectorRep.

UnsortedRep stores keys in an std::unordered_map of std::sets. When an iterator is requested, it dumps the keys into an std::set and iterates over that.

VectorRep stores keys in an std::vector. When an iterator is requested, it creates a copy of the vector and sorts it using std::sort. The iterator accesses that new vector.

PrefixHashRep stores keys in an unordered_map mapping prefixes to ordered sets.

I also added one API change. I added a function MemTableRep::MarkImmutable. This function is called when the rep is added to the immutable list. It doesn't do anything yet, but it seems like that could be useful. In particular, for the vectorrep, it means we could elide the extra copy and just sort in place. The only reason I haven't done that yet is because the use of the ArenaAllocator complicates things (I can elaborate on this if needed).

f1bf169484 Counter for merge failure
Summary:
With Merge returning bool, it can keep failing silently(eg. While faling to fetch timestamp in TTL). We need to detect this through a rocksdb counter which can get bumped whenever Merge returns false. This will also be super-useful for the mcrocksdb-counter service where Merge may fail.
Added a counter NUMBER_MERGE_FAILURES and appropriately updated db/merge_helper.cc

I felt that it would be better to directly add counter-bumping in Merge as a default function of MergeOperator class but user should not be aware of this, so this approach seems better to me.

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.

59d0b02f8b Expand KeyMayExist to return the proper value if it can be found in memory and also check block_cache
Summary: Removed KeyMayExistImpl because KeyMayExist demanded Get like semantics now. Removed no_io from memtable and imm because we need the proper value now and shouldn't just stop when we see Merge in memtable. Added checks to block_cache. Updated documentation and unit-test

Test Plan: make all check;db_stress for 1 hour

0f0a24e298 Make arena block size configurable
Summary:
Add an option for arena block size, default value 4096 bytes. Arena will allocate blocks with such size.

I am not sure about passing parameter to skiplist in the new virtualized framework, though I talked to Jim a bit. So add Jim as reviewer.

Test Plan:
new unit test, I am running db_test.

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?
