Summary: Currently, we only purge duplicate keys and deletions during flush if `earliest_seqno_in_memtable <= newest_snapshot`. This means that the newest snapshot happened before we first created the memtable. This is almost never true for MyRocks and MongoRocks. This patch makes purging during flush able to understand snapshots. The main logic is copied from compaction_job.cc, although the logic over there is much more complicated and extensive. However, we should try to merge the common functionality at some point. I need this patch to implement no_overwrite_i_promise functionality for flush. We'll also need this to support SingleDelete() during Flush(). @yoshinorim requested the feature. Test Plan: make check I had to adjust some unit tests to understand this new behavior Reviewers: yhchiang, yoshinorim, anthony, sdong, noetzli Reviewed By: noetzli Subscribers: yoshinorim, dhruba, leveldb Differential Revision: https://reviews.facebook.net/D42087
RocksDB: A Persistent Key-Value Store for Flash and RAM Storage
RocksDB is developed and maintained by Facebook Database Engineering Team. It is built on earlier work on LevelDB by Sanjay Ghemawat (sanjay@google.com) and Jeff Dean (jeff@google.com)
This code is a library that forms the core building block for a fast key value server, especially suited for storing data on flash drives. It has a Log-Structured-Merge-Database (LSM) design with flexible tradeoffs between Write-Amplification-Factor (WAF), Read-Amplification-Factor (RAF) and Space-Amplification-Factor (SAF). It has multi-threaded compactions, making it specially suitable for storing multiple terabytes of data in a single database.
