Summary:
With column families VersionSet will not have a constant number of levels (each CF can have different options), so we'll need to eliminate call to VersionSet::NumberLevels()
This diff decreases number of callsites, but we're not there yet. It associates number of levels with Version (each version is associated with single CF) instead of VersionSet.
I have also slightly changed how VersionSet keeps track of manifest size.
This diff also modifies constructor of Compaction such that it takes input_version and automatically Ref()s it. Before this was done outside of constructor.
In next diffs I will continue to decrease number of callsites of VersionSet::NumberLevels() and also references to current_

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.

We define options.max_open_files = -1 to be the mode that table readers for live files will always be kept. In that mode, table readers are cached in FileMetaData (with a reference count hold in table cache). So that when executing table_cache.Get() and table_cache.newInterator(), LRU cache checking can be by-passed, to reduce latency.

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:
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.
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.

Summary:
All filesystem Io should be done outside the dbmutex. There was one place
when we have to roll the transaction log that we were creating the new log file
while holding the dbmutex.
I rearranged this code so that the act of creating the new transaction log
file is done without holding the dbmutex. I also allocate the new memtable
outside the dbmutex, this is important because creating the memtable
could be heavyweight.

* rename "table stats" to "table properties" since now we have more than "integers" to store in the property block.
* Add filter block size to the basic table properties.
* Whenever a table is built, we'll log the table properties (the sample output is in Test Plan).
* Make an api to expose deleted keys.

Summary:
Here's one solution we discussed on speeding up FindObsoleteFiles. Keep a set of all files in DBImpl and update the set every time we create a file. I probably missed few other spots where we create a file.
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.
Let's discuss offline today.

Create a new type of file on startup if it doesn't already exist called DBID.
This will store a unique number generated from boost library's uuid header file.
The use-case is to identify the case of a db losing all its data and coming back up either empty or from an image(backup/live replica's recovery)
the key point to note is that DBID is not stored in a backup or db snapshot
It's preferable to use Boost for uuid because:
1) A non-standard way of generating uuid is not good
2) /proc/sys/kernel/random/uuid generates a uuid but only on linux environments and the solution would not be clean
3) c++ doesn't have any direct way to get a uuid
4) Boost is a very good library that was already having linkage in rocksdb from third-party
Note: I had to update the TOOLCHAIN_REV in build files to get latest verison of boost from third-party as the older version had a bug.
I had to put Wno-uninitialized in Makefile because boost-1.51 has an unitialized variable and rocksdb would not comiple otherwise. Latet open-source for boost is 1.54 but is not there in third-party. I have notified the concerned people in fbcode about it.
@kailiu : While releasing to third-party, an additional dependency will need to be created for boost in TARGETS file. I can help identify.

Summary:
This is expected to solve the "gaps in transaction log iterator" problem.
* After a lot of observations on the gaps on the sigmafio machines I found that it is due to a race between log reader and writer always.
* So when we drop the wormhole subscription and refresh the iterator, the gaps are not there.
* It is NOT due to some boundary or corner case left unattended in the iterator logic because I checked many instances of the gaps against their log files with ldb. The log files are NOT corrupted also.
* The solution is to not allow the iterator to read incompletely written sequences and detect gaps inside itself and invalidate it which will cause the application to refresh the iterator normally and seek to the required sequence properly.
* Thus, the iterator can at least guarantee that it will not give any gaps.
Test Plan:
* db_test based log iterator tests
* db_repl_stress
* testing on sigmafio setup to see gaps go away
