Summary:
I was investigating performance issues in the SstFileWriter and found all of the following:
- The SstFileWriter::Add() function created a local InternalKey every time it was called generating a allocation and free each time. Changed to have an InternalKey member variable that can be reset with the new InternalKey::Set() function.
- In SstFileWriter::Add() the smallest_key and largest_key values were assigned the result of a ToString() call, but it is simpler to just assign them directly from the user's key.
- The Slice class had no move constructor so each time one was returned from a function a new one had to be allocated, the old data copied to the new, and the old one was freed. I added the move constructor which also required a copy constructor and assignment operator.
- The BlockBuilder::CurrentSizeEstimate() function calculates the current estimate size, but was being called 2 or 3 times for each key added. I changed the class to maintain a running estimate (equal to the original calculation) so that the function can return an already calculated value.
- The code in BlockBuilder::Add() that calculated the shared bytes between the last key and the new key duplicated what Slice::difference_offset does, so I replaced it with the standard function.
- BlockBuilder::Add() had code to copy just the changed portion into the last key value (and asserted that it now matched the new key). It is more efficient just to copy the whole new key over.
- Moved this same code up into the 'if (use_delta_encoding_)' since the last key value is only needed when delta encoding is on.
- FlushBlockBySizePolicy::BlockAlmostFull calculated a standard deviation value each time it was called, but this information would only change if block_size of block_size_deviation changed, so I created a member variable to hold the value to avoid the calculation each time.
- Each PutVarint??() function has a buffer and calls std::string::append(). Two or three calls in a row could share a buffer and a single call to std::string::append().
Some of these will be helpful outside of the SstFileWriter. I'm not 100% the addition of the move constructor is appropriate as I wonder why this wasn't done before - maybe because of compiler compatibility? I tried it on gcc 4.8 and 4.9.
Test Plan: The changes should not affect the results so the existing tests should all still work and no new tests were added. The value of the changes was seen by manually testing the SstFileWriter class through MyRocks and adding timing code to identify problem areas.

1. Fix the bug where compaction does not fail when RocksDB can't create a new file.
2. When NewWritableFiles() fails in OpenCompactionOutputFiles(), previously such fail-to-created file will be still be included as a compaction output. This patch also fixes this bug.
3. Allow VersionEdit::EncodeTo() to return Status and add basic check.

Summary:
We added multiple fields to FileMetaData recently and are planning to add more.
This refactoring separate the minimum information for accessing the file. This object is copyable (FileMetaData is not copyable since the ref counter). I hope this refactoring can enable further improvements:
(1) use it to design a more efficient data structure to speed up read queries.
(2) in the future, when we add information of storage level, we can easily do the encoding, instead of enlarge this structure, which might expand memory work set for file meta data.
The definition is same as current EncodedFileMetaData used in two level iterator, so now the logic in two level iterator is easier to understand.

Summary:
This was reported by our customers in task #4295529.
Cause:
* MANIFEST file contains a VersionEdit, which contains file entries whose 'smallest' and 'largest' internal keys are empty. String with zero characters. Root cause of corruption was not investigated. We should report corruption when this happens. However, we currently SIGSEGV.
Here's what happens:
* VersionEdit encodes zero-strings happily and stores them in smallest and largest InternalKeys. InternalKey::Encode() does assert when `rep_.empty()`, but we don't assert in production environemnts. Also, we should never assert as a result of DB corruption.
* As part of our ConsistencyCheck, we call GetLiveFilesMetaData()
* GetLiveFilesMetadata() calls `file->largest.user_key().ToString()`
* user_key() function does: 1. assert(size > 8) (ooops, no assert), 2. returns `Slice(internal_key.data(), internal_key.size() - 8)`
* since `internal_key.size()` is unsigned int, this call translates to `Slice(whatever, 1298471928561892576182756)`. Bazinga.
Fix:
* VersionEdit checks if InternalKey is valid in `VersionEdit::GetInternalKey()`. If it's invalid, returns corruption.
Lessons learned:
* Always keep in mind that even if you `assert()`, production code will continue execution even if assert fails.
* Never `assert` based on DB corruption. Assert only if the code should guarantee that assert can't fail.
Test Plan: dumped offending manifest. Before: assert. Now: corruption

Summary:
I will submit a sequence of diffs that are preparing master branch for column families. There are a lot of implicit assumptions in the code that are making column family implementation hard. If I make the change only in column family branch, it will make merging back to master impossible.
Most of the diffs will be simple code refactorings, so I hope we can have fast turnaround time. Feel free to grab me in person to discuss any of them.
This diff removes number of level check from VersionEdit. It is used only when VersionEdit is read, not written, but has to be set when it is written. I believe it is a right thing to make VersionEdit dumb and check consistency on the caller side. This will also make it much easier to implement Column Families, since different column families can have different number of levels.

Summary:
There is a new option called hybrid_mode which, when switched on,
causes HBase style compactions. Files from L0 are
compacted back into L0. This meat of this compaction algorithm
is in PickCompactionHybrid().
All files reside in L0. That means all files have overlapping
keys. Each file has a time-bound, i.e. each file contains a
range of keys that were inserted around the same time. The
start-seqno and the end-seqno refers to the timeframe when
these keys were inserted. Files that have contiguous seqno
are compacted together into a larger file. All files are
ordered from most recent to the oldest.
The current compaction algorithm starts to look for
candidate files starting from the most recent file. It continues to
add more files to the same compaction run as long as the
sum of the files chosen till now is smaller than the next
candidate file size. This logic needs to be debated
and validated.
The above logic should reduce write amplification to a
large extent... will publish numbers shortly.
Test Plan: dbstress runs for 6 hours with no data corruption (tested so far).

- 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.
- Removing post_write_snapshot support. Email to leveldb mailing
list brought up no users, just confusion from one person about
what it meant.
- Fixing static_cast char to unsigned on BIG_ENDIAN platforms.
Fixes Issue 35 and Issue 36.
- Comment clarification to address leveldb Issue 37.
- Change license in posix_logger.h to match other files.
