Summary:
As it turns out, we need the call to ComputeCompactionScore (previously: Finalize) in CompactionPicker.
The issue caused a deadlock in db_stress: http://ci-builds.fb.com/job/rocksdb_crashtest/290/console
The last two lines before a deadlock were:
2014/03/18-22:43:41.481029 7facafbee700 (Original Log Time 2014/03/18-22:43:41.480989) Compaction nothing to do
2014/03/18-22:43:41.481041 7faccf7fc700 wait for fewer level0 files...
"Compaction nothing to do" and other thread waiting for fewer level0 files. Hm hm.
I moved the pre-sorting to SaveTo, which should fix both the original and the new issue.
Test Plan: make check for now, will run db_stress in jenkins

Summary:
Previous code had two bugs:
* didn't initialize the table_magic_number_ explicitly -- as a
result a random junk number is stored for table_magic_number_, making
HasInitializedMagicNumber() always return true.
* if condition is inconrrect in set_table_magic_number(), and the return value is not checked.
I replace if-else by a stronger requirement enforced by assert().
Test Plan:
Previous sst_dump failed to work.
After the fix, things back to normal.

We have an issue with internal service trying to run compaction with zero input files:
2014/02/07-02:26:58.386531 7f79117ec700 Compaction start summary: Base version 1420 Base level 3, seek compaction:0, inputs:[ϛ~^Qy^?],[]
2014/02/07-02:26:58.386539 7f79117ec700 Compacted 0@3 + 0@4 files => 0 bytes
There are two issues:
* inputsummary is printing out junk
* it's constantly retrying (since I guess madeProgress is true), so it prints out a lot of data in the LOG file (40GB in one day).
I read through the Level compaction picker and added some failure condition if input[0] is empty. I think PickCompaction() should not return compaction with zero input files with this change. I'm not confident enough to add an assertion though :)

Summary:
Finalize re-sorts (read: mutates) the files_ in Version* and it is called by CompactionPicker during normal runtime. At the same time, this same Version* lives in the SuperVersion* and is accessed without the mutex in GetImpl() code path.
Mutating the files_ in one thread and reading the same files_ in another thread is a bad idea. It caused this issue: http://ci-builds.fb.com/job/rocksdb_crashtest/285/console
Long-term, we need to be more careful with method contracts and clearly document what state can be mutated when. Now that we are much faster because we don't lock in GetImpl(), we keep running into data races that were not a problem before when we were slower. db_stress has been very helpful in detecting those.
Short-term, I removed Finalize() from CompactionPicker.
Note: I believe this is an issue in current 2.7 version running in production.
Test Plan:

Summary:
Based on my recent findings (posted in our internal group), if we use fallocate without KEEP_SIZE flag, we get superior performance of fdatasync() in append-only workloads.
This diff provides an option for user to not use KEEP_SIZE flag, thus optimizing his sync performance by up to 2x-3x.
At one point we also just called posix_fallocate instead of fallocate, which isn't very fast: http://code.woboq.org/userspace/glibc/sysdeps/posix/posix_fallocate.c.html (tl;dr it manually writes out zero bytes to allocate storage). This diff also fixes that, by first calling fallocate and then posix_fallocate if fallocate is not supported.

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:
Here is what it can cause probelm:
There is one memtable flush and one compaction. Both call LogAndApply(). If both edits are applied in the same batch with flush edit first and the compaction edit followed. LogAndApplyHelper() will assign compaction edit current VersionSet's log number(which should be smaller than the log number from flush edit). It cause log_numbers in MANIFEST to be not monotonic increasing, which violates the assume Recover() makes. What is more is after comitting to MANIFEST file, log_number_ in VersionSet is updated to the log_number from the last edit, which is the compaction one. It ends up not updating the log_number.

Yesterday, @ljin and I were debugging various db_stress issues. We suspected one of them happens when we concurrently call NewIterator without prefix_seek on HashSkipList. This test demonstrates it.
Update:
Arena is not thread-safe!! When creating a new full iterator, we *have* to create a new arena, otherwise we're doomed.

With D16767, there is a case compaction tasks are scheduled infinitely:
(1) no flush thread is configured and more than 1 compaction threads
(2) a flush is going on by one compaction hread
(3) the state of SST files is in the state that versions_->current()->NeedsCompaction() will generate a false positive (return true actually there is no work to be done)
In that case, a infinite loop will be formed.
This patch would fix 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!
