Summary:
At the end of BackgroundCallCompaction(), we call SignalAll(), even though we don't need to. If compaction hasn't done anything and there's another compaction running, there is no need to signal on the condition variable. Doing so creates a tight feedback loop which results in log files like:
wait for memtable flush
compaction nothing to do
wait for memtable flush
compaction nothing to do
This change eliminates that
Test Plan:
make check
Also:
icanadi@dev1440 ~ $ grep "nothing to do" /fast-rocksdb-tmp/rocksdb_test/column_family_test/LOG | wc -l
7435
icanadi@dev1440 ~ $ grep "nothing to do" /fast-rocksdb-tmp/rocksdb_test/column_family_test/LOG | wc -l
372
First version is before the change, second version is after the change.
