// A RangeDelAggregator aggregates range deletion tombstones as they are

// key is covered by range tombstones or write the relevant tombstones to a new
// SST file.

public:
// @param snapshots These are used to organize the tombstones into snapshot
// stripes, which is the seqnum range between consecutive snapshots,
// including the higher snapshot and excluding the lower one. Currently,
// this is used by ShouldDelete() to prevent deletion of keys that are
// covered by range tombstones in other snapshot stripes. In case of writes
// (flush/compaction), all DB snapshots are provided such that no keys are
// removed that are uncovered according to any DB snapshot. In case of read
// (get/iterator), only the user snapshot is provided such that the seqnum
// space is divided into two stripes, where only tombstones in the older
// stripe are considered by ShouldDelete().
RangeDelAggregator(const InternalKeyComparator& icmp,
const std::vector<SequenceNumber>& snapshots);
// Returns whether the key should be deleted, which is the case when it is
// covered by a range tombstone residing in the same snapshot stripe.

// object.
// @return non-OK status if any of the tombstone keys are corrupted.

// write tombstones covering a range to a table builder
// usually don't add to a max-level table builder
// Writes tombstones covering a range to a table builder.
// @param extend_before_min_key If true, the range of tombstones to be added
// to the TableBuilder starts from the beginning of the key-range;
// otherwise, it starts from meta->smallest.
// @param next_table_min_key If nullptr, the range of tombstones to be added
// to the TableBuilder ends at the end of the key-range; otherwise, it
// ends at next_table_min_key.
// @param meta The file's metadata. We modify the begin and end keys according
// to the range tombstones added to this file such that the read path does
// not miss range tombstones that cover gaps before/after/between files in
// a level.
// @param bottommost_level If true, we will filter out any tombstones
// belonging to the oldest snapshot stripe, because all keys potentially
// covered by this tombstone are guaranteed to have been deleted by
// compaction.
