Summary:
The compaction process takes some files from LevelK and
merges it into LevelK+1. The number of files it picks from
LevelK was capped such a way that the total amount of
data picked does not exceed the maxfilesize of that level.
This essentially meant that only one file from LevelK
is picked for a single compaction.
For bulkloads, we would like to take many many file from
LevelK and compact them using a single compaction run.
This patch introduces a option called the 'source_compaction_factor'
(similar to expanded_compaction_factor). It is a multiplier
that is multiplied by the maxfilesize of that level to arrive
at the limit that is used to throttle the number of source
files from LevelK. For bulk loads, set source_compaction_factor
to a very high number so that multiple files from the same
level are picked for compaction in a single compaction.
The default value of source_compaction_factor is 1, so that
we can keep backward compatibilty with existing compaction semantics.

Prototype stat's collection. Diff is a good estimate of what
the final code will look like.
A few assumptions :
* Used a global static instance of the statistics object. Plan to pass
it to each internal function. Static allows metrics only at app
level.
* In the Ticker's do not do any locking. Depend on the mutex at each
function of LevelDB. If we ever remove the mutex, we should change
here too. The other option is use atomic objects anyways as there
won't be any contention as they will be always acquired only by one
thread.
* The counters are dumb, increment through lifecycle. Plan to use ods
etc to get last5min stat etc.
Test Plan:

Summary:
There are certain use-cases where the application intends to
delete older keys aftre they have expired a certian time period.
One option for those applications is to periodically scan the
entire database and delete appropriate keys.
A better way is to allow the application to hook into the
compaction process. This patch allows the application to set
a method callback for every key that is being compacted. If
this method returns true, then the key is not preserved in
the output of the compaction.
Test Plan:
This is mostly to preview the proposed new public api.
Since it is a public api, please do due diligence on reviewing it.
I will be writing test cases for this api in mynext version of
this patch.

Summary:
The leveldb API is enhanced to support different compression algorithms at
different levels.
This adds the option min_level_to_compress to db_bench that specifies
the minimum level for which compression should be done when
compression is enabled. This can be used to disable compression for levels
0 and 1 which are likely to suffer from stalls because of the CPU load
for memtable flushes and (L0,L1) compaction. Level 0 is special as it
gets frequent memtable flushes. Level 1 is special as it frequently
gets all:all file compactions between it and level 0. But all other levels
could be the same. For any level N where N > 1, the rate of sequential
IO for that level should be the same. The last level is the
exception because it might not be full and because files from it are
not read to compact with the next larger level.
The same amount of time will be spent doing compaction at any
level N excluding N=0, 1 or the last level. By this standard all
of those levels should use the same compression. The difference is that
the loss (using more disk space) from a faster compression algorithm
is less significant for N=2 than for N=3. So we might be willing to
trade disk space for faster write rates with no compression
for L0 and L1, snappy for L2, zlib for L3. Using a faster compression
algorithm for the mid levels also allows us to reclaim some cpu
without trading off much loss in disk space overhead.
Also note that little is to be gained by compressing levels 0 and 1. For
a 4-level tree they account for 10% of the data. For a 5-level tree they
account for 1% of the data.
With compression enabled:
* memtable flush rate is ~18MB/second
* (L0,L1) compaction rate is ~30MB/second
With compression enabled but min_level_to_compress=2
* memtable flush rate is ~320MB/second
* (L0,L1) compaction rate is ~560MB/second
This practicaly takes the same code from https://reviews.facebook.net/D6225
but makes the leveldb api more general purpose with a few additional
lines of code.

Summary:
Adds a method that returns the score for the next level that most
needs compaction. That method is then used by db_bench to rate limit threads.
Threads are put to sleep at the end of each stats interval until the score
is less than the limit. The limit is set via the --rate_limit=$double option.
The specified value must be > 1.0. Also adds the option --stats_per_interval
to enable additional metrics reported every stats interval.

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:
The method DeleteObsolete files is a very costly methind, especially
when the number of files in a system is large. It makes a list of

invoked twice within a configured period.

Summary:
In the current code, a Get() call can trigger compaction if it has to look at more than one file. This causes unnecessary compaction because looking at more than one file is a penalty only if the file is not yet in the cache. Also, th current code counts these files before the bloom filter check is applied.
This patch counts a 'seek' only if the file fails the bloom filter
check and has to read in data block(s) from the storage.
This patch also counts a 'seek' if a file is not present in the file-cache, because opening a file means that its index blocks need to be read into cache.
Test Plan: unit test attached. I will probably add one more unti tests.

In particular, we add a new FilterPolicy class. An instance
of this class can be supplied in Options when opening a
database. If supplied, the instance is used to generate
summaries of keys (e.g., a bloom filter) which are placed in
sstables. These summaries are consulted by DB::Get() so we
can avoid reading sstable blocks that are guaranteed to not
contain the key we are looking for.
This change provides one implementation of FilterPolicy
based on bloom filters.
Other changes:
- Updated version number to 1.4.
- Some build tweaks.
- C binding for CompactRange.
- A few more benchmarks: deleteseq, deleterandom, readmissing, seekrandom.
- Minor .gitignore update.
- 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)
- Added DB::CompactRange() method.
Changed manual compaction code so it breaks up compactions of
big ranges into smaller compactions.
Changed the code that pushes the output of memtable compactions
to higher levels to obey the grandparent constraint: i.e., we
must never have a single file in level L that overlaps too
much data in level L+1 (to avoid very expensive L-1 compactions).
Added code to pretty-print internal keys.
- Fixed bug where we would not detect overlap with files in
level-0 because we were incorrectly using binary search
on an array of files with overlapping ranges.
Added "leveldb.sstables" property that can be used to dump
all of the sstables and ranges that make up the db state.
