Peter Dillinger ad5325a736 Experimental support for SST unique IDs (#8990)
Summary:
* New public header unique_id.h and function GetUniqueIdFromTableProperties
which computes a universally unique identifier based on table properties
of table files from recent RocksDB versions.
* Generation of DB session IDs is refactored so that they are
guaranteed unique in the lifetime of a process running RocksDB.
(SemiStructuredUniqueIdGen, new test included.) Along with file numbers,
this enables SST unique IDs to be guaranteed unique among SSTs generated
in a single process, and "better than random" between processes.
See https://github.com/pdillinger/unique_id
* In addition to public API producing 'external' unique IDs, there is a function
for producing 'internal' unique IDs, with functions for converting between the
two. In short, the external ID is "safe" for things people might do with it, and
the internal ID enables more "power user" features for the future. Specifically,
the external ID goes through a hashing layer so that any subset of bits in the
external ID can be used as a hash of the full ID, while also preserving
uniqueness guarantees in the first 128 bits (bijective both on first 128 bits
and on full 192 bits).

Intended follow-up:
* Use the internal unique IDs in cache keys. (Avoid conflicts with https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/8912) (The file offset can be XORed into
the third 64-bit value of the unique ID.)
* Publish the external unique IDs in FileStorageInfo (https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/8968)

Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/8990

Test Plan:
Unit tests added, and checking of unique ids in stress test.
NOTE in stress test we do not generate nearly enough files to thoroughly
stress uniqueness, but the test trims off pieces of the ID to check for
uniqueness so that we can infer (with some assumptions) stronger
properties in the aggregate.

RocksDB: A Persistent Key-Value Store for Flash and RAM Storage

CircleCI Status TravisCI Status Appveyor Build status PPC64le Build Status

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 especially suitable for storing multiple terabytes of data in a single database.

Start with example usage here: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/tree/main/examples

See the github wiki for more explanation.

The public interface is in include/. Callers should not include or rely on the details of any other header files in this package. Those internal APIs may be changed without warning.

Design discussions are conducted in https://www.facebook.com/groups/rocksdb.dev/ and https://rocksdb.slack.com/
