Summary:
Currently, the only way to close an open DB is to destroy the DB
object. There is no way for the caller to know the status. In one
instance, the destructor encountered an error due to failure to
close a log file on HDFS. In order to prevent silent failures, we add
DB::Close() that calls CloseImpl() which must be implemented by its
descendants.
The main failure point in the destructor is closing the log file. This
patch also adds a Close() entry point to Logger in order to get status.
When DBOptions::info_log is allocated and owned by the DBImpl, it is
explicitly closed by DBImpl::CloseImpl().

Summary:
The motivation for this PR is to add to RocksDB support for differential (incremental) snapshots, as snapshot of the DB changes between two points in time (one can think of it as diff between to sequence numbers, or the diff D which can be thought of as an SST file or just set of KVs that can be applied to sequence number S1 to get the database to the state at sequence number S2).
This feature would be useful for various distributed storages layers built on top of RocksDB, as it should help reduce resources (time and network bandwidth) needed to recover and rebuilt DB instances as replicas in the context of distributed storages.
From the API standpoint that would like client app requesting iterator between (start seqnum) and current DB state, and reading the "diff".
This is a very draft PR for initial review in the discussion on the approach, i'm going to rework some parts and keep updating the PR.
For now, what's done here according to initial discussions:
Preserving deletes:
- We want to be able to optionally preserve recent deletes for some defined period of time, so that if a delete came in recently and might need to be included in the next incremental snapshot it would't get dropped by a compaction. This is done by adding new param to Options (preserve deletes flag) and new variable to DB Impl where we keep track of the sequence number after which we don't want to drop tombstones, even if they are otherwise eligible for deletion.
- I also added a new API call for clients to be able to advance this cutoff seqnum after which we drop deletes; i assume it's more flexible to let clients control this, since otherwise we'd need to keep some kind of timestamp < -- > seqnum mapping inside the DB, which sounds messy and painful to support. Clients could make use of it by periodically calling GetLatestSequenceNumber(), noting the timestamp, doing some calculation and figuring out by how much we need to advance the cutoff seqnum.
- Compaction codepath in compaction_iterator.cc has been modified to avoid dropping tombstones with seqnum > cutoff seqnum.
Iterator changes:
- couple params added to ReadOptions, to optionally allow client to request internal keys instead of user keys (so that client can get the latest value of a key, be it delete marker or a put), as well as min timestamp and min seqnum.
TableCache changes:
- I modified table_cache code to be able to quickly exclude SST files from iterators heep if creation_time on the file is less then iter_start_ts as passed in ReadOptions. That would help a lot in some DB settings (like reading very recent data only or using FIFO compactions), but not so much for universal compaction with more or less long iterator time span.
What's left:
- Still looking at how to best plug that inside DBIter codepath. So far it seems that FindNextUserKeyInternal only parses values as UserKeys, and iter->key() call generally returns user key. Can we add new API to DBIter as internal_key(), and modify this internal method to optionally set saved_key_ to point to the full internal key? I don't need to store actual seqnum there, but I do need to store type.

Summary:
GetCommitTimeWriteBatch is currently used to store some state as part of commit in 2PC. In MyRocks it is specifically used to store some data that would be needed only during recovery. So it is not need to be stored in memtable right after each commit.
This patch enables an optimization to write the GetCommitTimeWriteBatch only to the WAL. The batch will be written to memtable during recovery when the WAL is replayed. To cover the case when WAL is deleted after memtable flush, the batch is also buffered and written to memtable right before each memtable flush.

Summary:
Adding the `min_blob_size` option to allow storing small values in base db (in LSM tree) together with the key. The goal is to improve performance for small values, while taking advantage of blob db's low write amplification for large values.
Also adding expiration timestamp to blob index. It will be useful to evict stale blob indexes in base db by adding a compaction filter. I'll work on the compaction filter in future patches.
See blob_index.h for the new blob index format. There are 4 cases when writing a new key:
* small value w/o TTL: put in base db as normal value (i.e. ValueType::kTypeValue)
* small value w/ TTL: put (type, expiration, value) to base db.
* large value w/o TTL: write value to blob log and put (type, file, offset, size, compression) to base db.
* large value w/TTL: write value to blob log and put (type, expiration, file, offset, size, compression) to base db.

Summary:
With WriteCommitted, when the write batch has duplicate keys, the txn db simply inserts them to the db with different seq numbers and let the db ignore/merge the duplicate values at the read time. With WritePrepared all the entries of the batch are inserted with the same seq number which prevents us from benefiting from this simple solution.
This patch applies a hackish solution to unblock the end-to-end testing. The hack is to be replaced with a proper solution soon. The patch simply detects the duplicate key insertions, and mark the previous one as obsolete. Then before writing to the db it rewrites the batch eliminating the obsolete keys. This would incur a memcpy cost. Furthermore handing duplicate merge would require to do FullMerge instead of simply ignoring the previous value, which is not handled by this patch.

Summary:
Throughput: 46k tps in our sysbench settings (filling the details later)
The idea is to have the simplest change that gives us a reasonable boost
in 2PC throughput.
Major design changes:
1. The WAL file internal buffer is not flushed after each write. Instead
it is flushed before critical operations (WAL copy via fs) or when
FlushWAL is called by MySQL. Flushing the WAL buffer is also protected
via mutex_.
2. Use two sequence numbers: last seq, and last seq for write. Last seq
is the last visible sequence number for reads. Last seq for write is the
next sequence number that should be used to write to WAL/memtable. This
allows to have a memtable write be in parallel to WAL writes.
3. BatchGroup is not used for writes. This means that we can have
parallel writers which changes a major assumption in the code base. To
accommodate for that i) allow only 1 WriteImpl that intends to write to
memtable via mem_mutex_--which is fine since in 2PC almost all of the memtable writes
come via group commit phase which is serial anyway, ii) make all the
parts in the code base that assumed to be the only writer (via
EnterUnbatched) to also acquire mem_mutex_, iii) stat updates are
protected via a stat_mutex_.
Note: the first commit has the approach figured out but is not clean.
Submitting the PR anyway to get the early feedback on the approach. If
we are ok with the approach I will go ahead with this updates:
0) Rebase with Yi's pipelining changes
1) Currently batching is disabled by default to make sure that it will be
consistent with all unit tests. Will make this optional via a config.
2) A couple of unit tests are disabled. They need to be updated with the
serial commit of 2PC taken into account.
3) Replacing BatchGroup with mem_mutex_ got a bit ugly as it requires
releasing mutex_ beforehand (the same way EnterUnbatched does). This
needs to be cleaned up.

Summary:
Added a flag, `ignore_unknown_options`, to skip unknown options when loading an options file (using `LoadLatestOptions`/`LoadOptionsFromFile`) or while verifying options (using `CheckOptionsCompatibility`). This will help in downgrading the db to an older version.
Also added `--ignore_unknown_options` flag to ldb
**Example Use case:**
In MyRocks, if copying from newer version to older version, it is often impossible to start because of new RocksDB options that don't exist in older version, even though data format is compatible.
MyRocks uses these load and verify functions in [ha_rocksdb.cc::check_rocksdb_options_compatibility](e004fd9f41/storage/rocksdb/ha_rocksdb.cc (L3348-L3401)).
**Test Plan:**
Updated the unit tests.
`make check`
ldb:
$ ./ldb --db=/tmp/test_db --create_if_missing put a1 b1
OK
Now edit /tmp/test_db/<OPTIONS-file> and add an unknown option.
Try loading the options now, and it fails:
$ ./ldb --db=/tmp/test_db --try_load_options get a1
Failed: Invalid argument: Unrecognized option DBOptions:: abcd

The bottleneck is we persist options files for every single column family create/drop, and it parses the persisted options file for verification, which take a lot CPU time.
The new APIs simply create/drop column families individually, and persist options file once at the end. This improves create 1k column families to within ~0.1s. Further improvement can be merge manifest write to one IO.

These code paths forked when checkpoint was introduced by copy/pasting the core backup logic. Over time they diverged and bug fixes were sometimes applied to one but not the other (like fix to include all relevant WALs for 2PC), or it required extra effort to fix both (like fix to forge CURRENT file). This diff reunites the code paths by extracting the core logic into a function, CreateCustomCheckpoint(), that is customizable via callbacks to implement both checkpoint and backup.
Related changes:
- flush_before_backup is now forcibly enabled when 2PC is enabled
- Extracted CheckpointImpl class definition into a header file. This is so the function, CreateCustomCheckpoint(), can be called by internal rocksdb code but not exposed to users.

Summary:
Currently the point lookup values are copied to a string provided by the
user. This incures an extra memcpy cost. This patch allows doing point lookup
via a PinnableSlice which pins the source memory location (instead of
copying their content) and releases them after the content is consumed
by the user. The old API of Get(string) is translated to the new API
underneath.

actually needs it. We have put that for future work.

Added an option to GetApproximateSizes to exclude file stats, as MyRocks has those counted exactly and we need only stats from memtables.

Summary:
Currently the point lookup values are copied to a string provided by the user.
This incures an extra memcpy cost. This patch allows doing point lookup
via a PinnableSlice which pins the source memory location (instead of
copying their content) and releases them after the content is consumed
by the user. The old API of Get(string) is translated to the new API
underneath.
Here is the summary for improvements:
1. value 100 byte: 1.8% regular, 1.2% merge values
2. value 1k byte: 11.5% regular, 7.5% merge values
3. value 10k byte: 26% regular, 29.9% merge values
The improvement for merge could be more if we extend this approach to
pin the merge output and delay the full merge operation until the user
actually needs it. We have put that for future work.
PS:
Sometimes we observe a small decrease in performance when switching from
t5452014 to this patch but with the old Get(string) API. The difference
is a little and could be noise. More importantly it is safely
cancelled
