Summary:
On some filesystems, pre-allocation can be a considerable
amount of space. xfs in our production environment pre-allocates by
1GB, for instance. By using fallocate to inform the kernel of our
expected file sizes, we eliminate this wasteage (that isn't recovered
until the file is closed which, in the case of LOG files, can be a
considerable amount of time).
Test Plan:
created an xfs loopback filesystem, mounted with
allocsize=4M, and ran db_stress. LOG file without this change was 4M,
and with it it was 128k then grew to normal size.

Summary:
Suppose you submit 100 background tasks one after another. The first
enqueu task finds that the queue is empty and wakes up one worker thread.
Now suppose that all remaining 99 work items are enqueued, they do not
wake up any worker threads because the queue is already non-empty.
This causes a situation when there are 99 tasks in the task queue but
only one worker thread is processing a task while the remaining
worker threads are waiting.
The fix is to always wakeup one worker thread while enqueuing a task.
I also added a check to count the number of elements in the queue
to help in debugging.
Test Plan: make clean check.

Summary:
This patch allows compaction to occur in multiple background threads
concurrently.
If a manual compaction is issued, the system falls back to a
single-compaction-thread model. This is done to ensure correctess
and simplicity of code. When the manual compaction is finished,
the system resumes its concurrent-compaction mode automatically.
The updates to the manifest are done via group-commit approach.
Test Plan: run db_bench
Summary:
We have seen that reading data via the pread call (instead of
mmap) is much faster on Linux 2.6.x kernels. This patch makes
an equivalent option to switch off mmaps for the write path
as well.
db_bench --mmap_write=0 will use write() instead of mmap() to
write data to a file.
This change is backward compatible, the default
option is to continue using mmap for writing to a file.
Test Plan: "make check all"

Summary:
The GetLiveFiles() api lists the set of sst files and the current
MANIFEST file. But the database continues to append new data to the
MANIFEST file even when the application is backing it up to the
backup location. This means that the database-version that is
stored in the MANIFEST FILE in the backup location
does not correspond to the sst files returned by GetLiveFiles.
This API adds a new parameter to GetLiveFiles. This new parmeter
returns the current size of the MANIFEST file.
Test Plan: Unit test attached.

A lockfile request checks to see if htis filename already exists in

- Replace raw slice comparison with a call to user comparator.
Added test for custom comparators.
- Fix end of namespace comments.
- Fixed bug in picking inputs for a level-0 compaction.
When finding overlapping files, the covered range may expand
as files are added to the input set. We now correctly expand
the range when this happens instead of continuing to use the
old range. For example, suppose L0 contains files with the
following ranges:
F1: a .. d
F2: c .. g
F3: f .. j
and the initial compaction target is F3. We used to search
for range f..j which yielded {F2,F3}. However we now expand
the range as soon as another file is added. In this case,
when F2 is added, we expand the range to c..j and restart the
search. That picks up file F1 as well.
This change fixes a bug related to deleted keys showing up
incorrectly after a compaction as described in Issue 44.
(Sync with upstream @25072954)
- Removed one copy of an uncompressed block contents changing
the signature of Snappy_Uncompress() so it uncompresses into a
flat array instead of a std::string.
Speeds up readrandom ~10%.
- Instead of a combination of Env/WritableFile, we now have a
Logger interface that can be easily overridden applications
that want to supply their own logging.
- Separated out the gcc and Sun Studio parts of atomic_pointer.h
so we can use 'asm', 'volatile' keywords for Sun Studio.

Slight tweak to the no-overlap optimization: only push to
level 2 to reduce the amount of wasted space when the same
small key range is being repeatedly overwritten.
Fix for Issue 18: Avoid failure on Windows by avoiding
deletion of lock file until the end of DestroyDB().
Fix for Issue 19: Disregard sequence numbers when checking for
overlap in sstable ranges. This fixes issue 19: when writing
the same key over and over again, we would generate a sequence
of sstables that were never merged together since their sequence
numbers were disjoint.
Don't ignore map/unmap error checks.
Miscellaneous fixes for small problems Sanjay found while diagnosing
issue/9 and issue/16 (corruption_testr failures).
- log::Reader reports the record type when it finds an unexpected type.
- log::Reader no longer reports an error when it encounters an expected
