Summary:
For transactions, we are using the memtables to validate that there are no write conflicts. But after flushing, we don't have any memtables, and transactions could fail to commit. So we want to someone keep around some extra history to use for conflict checking. In addition, we want to provide a way to increase the size of this history if too many transactions fail to commit.
After chatting with people, it seems like everyone prefers just using Memtables to store this history (instead of a separate history structure). It seems like the best place for this is abstracted inside the memtable_list. I decide to create a separate list in MemtableListVersion as using the same list complicated the flush/installalflushresults logic too much.
This diff adds a new parameter to control how much memtable history to keep around after flushing. However, it sounds like people aren't too fond of adding new parameters. So I am making the default size of flushed+not-flushed memtables be set to max_write_buffers. This should not change the maximum amount of memory used, but make it more likely we're using closer the the limit. (We are now postponing deleting flushed memtables until the max_write_buffer limit is reached). So while we might use more memory on average, we are still obeying the limit set (and you could argue it's better to go ahead and use up memory now instead of waiting for a write stall to happen to test this limit).
However, if people are opposed to this default behavior, we can easily set it to 0 and require this parameter be set in order to use transactions.
Test Plan: Added a xfunc test to play around with setting different values of this parameter in all tests. Added testing in memtablelist_test and planning on adding more testing here.

Summary:
In this patch, try to allocate the whole iterator tree starting from DBIter from an arena
1. ArenaWrappedDBIter is created when serves as the entry point of an iterator tree, with an arena in it.
2. Add an option to create iterator from arena for following iterators: DBIter, MergingIterator, MemtableIterator, all mem table's iterators, all table reader's iterators and two level iterator.
3. MergeIteratorBuilder is created to incrementally build the tree of internal iterators. It is passed to mem table list and version set and add iterators to it.
Limitations:
(1) Only DB::NewIterator() without tailing uses the arena. Other cases, including readonly DB and compactions are still from malloc
(2) Two level iterator itself is allocated in arena, but not iterators inside it.

Summary:
Here are the major changes to the Merge Interface. It has been expanded
to handle cases where the MergeOperator is not associative. It does so by stacking
up merge operations while scanning through the key history (i.e.: during Get() or
Compaction), until a valid Put/Delete/end-of-history is encountered; it then
applies all of the merge operations in the correct sequence starting with the
base/sentinel value.
I have also introduced an "AssociativeMerge" function which allows the user to
take advantage of associative merge operations (such as in the case of counters).
The implementation will always attempt to merge the operations/operands themselves
together when they are encountered, and will resort to the "stacking" method if
and only if the "associative-merge" fails.
This implementation is conjectured to allow MergeOperator to handle the general
case, while still providing the user with the ability to take advantage of certain
efficiencies in their own merge-operator / data-structure.
NOTE: This is a preliminary diff. This must still go through a lot of review,
revision, and testing. Feedback welcome!
Test Plan:
-This is a preliminary diff. I have only just begun testing/debugging it.
-I will be testing this with the existing MergeOperator use-cases and unit-tests
(counters, string-append, and redis-lists)
-I will be "desk-checking" and walking through the code with the help gdb.
-I will find a way of stress-testing the new interface / implementation using
db_bench, db_test, merge_test, and/or db_stress.
-I will ensure that my tests cover all cases: Get-Memtable,
Get-Immutable-Memtable, Get-from-Disk, Iterator-Range-Scan, Flush-Memtable-to-L0,
Compaction-L0-L1, Compaction-Ln-L(n+1), Put/Delete found, Put/Delete not-found,
end-of-history, end-of-file, etc.
-A lot of feedback from the reviewers.

This diff introduces a new Merge operation into rocksdb.
The purpose of this review is mostly getting feedback from the team (everyone please) on the design.
Please focus on the four files under include/leveldb/, as they spell the client visible interface change.
include/leveldb/db.h
include/leveldb/merge_operator.h
include/leveldb/options.h
include/leveldb/write_batch.h
Please go over local/my_test.cc carefully, as it is a concerete use case.
Please also review the impelmentation files to see if the straw man implementation makes sense.
Note that, the diff does pass all make check and truly supports forward iterator over db and a version
of Get that's based on iterator.
Future work:
- Integration with compaction
- A raw Get implementation
I am working on a wiki that explains the design and implementation choices, but coding comes

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.
