gitbw95 05c678e135 Set Write rate limiter priority dynamically and pass it to FS (#9988)
Summary:
### Context:
Background compactions and flush generate large reads and writes, and can be long running, especially for universal compaction. In some cases, this can impact foreground reads and writes by users.

From the RocksDB perspective, there can be two kinds of rate limiters, the internal (native) one and the external one.
- The internal (native) rate limiter is introduced in [the wiki](https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/wiki/Rate-Limiter). Currently, only IO_LOW and IO_HIGH are used and they are set statically.
- For the external rate limiter, in FSWritableFile functions,  IOOptions is open for end users to set and get rate_limiter_priority for their own rate limiter. Currently, RocksDB doesn’t pass the rate_limiter_priority through IOOptions to the file system.

### Solution
During the User Read, Flush write, Compaction read/write, the WriteController is used to determine whether DB writes are stalled or slowed down. The rate limiter priority (Env::IOPriority) can be determined accordingly. We decided to always pass the priority in IOOptions. What the file system does with it should be a contract between the user and the file system. We would like to set the rate limiter priority at file level, since the Flush/Compaction job level may be too coarse with multiple files and block IO level is too granular.

**This PR is for the Write path.** The **Write:** dynamic priority for different state are listed as follows:

| State | Normal | Delayed | Stalled |
| ----- | ------ | ------- | ------- |
|  Flush | IO_HIGH | IO_USER | IO_USER |
|  Compaction | IO_LOW | IO_USER | IO_USER |

Flush and Compaction writes share the same call path through BlockBaseTableWriter, WritableFileWriter, and FSWritableFile. When a new FSWritableFile object is created, its io_priority_ can be set dynamically based on the state of the WriteController. In WritableFileWriter, before the call sites of FSWritableFile functions, WritableFileWriter::DecideRateLimiterPriority() determines the rate_limiter_priority. The options (IOOptions) argument of FSWritableFile functions will be updated with the rate_limiter_priority.

anand76 a88d8795ec Expand auto recovery to background read errors (#9679)
Summary:
Fix and enhance the background error recovery logic to handle the
following situations -
1. Background read errors during flush/compaction (previously was
resulting in unrecoverable state)
2. Fix auto recovery failure on read/write errors during atomic flush.
It was failing due to a bug in setting the resuming_from_bg_err variable
in AtomicFlushMemTablesToOutputFiles.

Baptiste Lemaire c625b8d017 Add condition on NotifyOnFlushComplete that FlushJob was not mempurge. Add event listeners to mempurge tests. (#8672)
Summary:
Previously, when a `FlushJob` was redirected to a MemPurge, the function `DBImpl::NotifyOnFlushComplete` was called, which created a series of issues because the JobInfo was not correctly collected from the memtables.
This diff aims at correcting these two issues (`FlushJobInfo` collection in `FlushJob::MemPurge` , no call to `DBImpl::NotifyOnFlushComplete` after successful mempurge).
Event listeners were added to the unit tests to handle these situations.
Surprisingly none of the crashtests caught this issue, I will try to add event listeners to crash tests in the future.

Baptiste Lemaire e51be2c5a1 Improve MemPurge sampling (#8656)
Summary:
Previously, the `MemPurge` sampling function was assessing whether a random entry from a memtable was garbage or not by simply querying the given memtable (see https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/8628 for more details).
In this diff, I am updating the sampling function by querying not only the memtable the entry was drawn from, but also all subsequent memtables that have a greater memtable ID.
I also added the size of the value for KV entries in the payload/useful payload estimates (which was also one of the reasons why sampling was not as good as mempurging all the time in terms of L0 SST files reduction).
Once these changes were made, I was able to clean obsolete objects and functions from the `MemtableList` struct, and did a bit of cleanup everywhere.

Baptiste Lemaire e3a96c4823 Memtable sampling for mempurge heuristic. (#8628)
Summary:
Changes the API of the MemPurge process: the `bool experimental_allow_mempurge` and `experimental_mempurge_policy` flags have been replaced by a `double experimental_mempurge_threshold` option.
This change of API reflects another major change introduced in this PR: the MemPurgeDecider() function now works by sampling the memtables being flushed to estimate the overall amount of useful payload (payload minus the garbage), and then compare this useful payload estimate with the `double experimental_mempurge_threshold` value.
Therefore, when the value of this flag is `0.0` (default value), mempurge is simply deactivated. On the other hand, a value of `DBL_MAX` would be equivalent to always going through a mempurge regardless of the garbage ratio estimate.
At the moment, a `double experimental_mempurge_threshold` value else than 0.0 or `DBL_MAX` is opnly supported`with the `SkipList` memtable representation.
Regarding the sampling, this PR includes the introduction of a `MemTable::UniqueRandomSample` function that collects (approximately) random entries from the memtable by using the new `SkipList::Iterator::RandomSeek()` under the hood, or by iterating through each memtable entry, depending on the target sample size and the total number of entries.
The unit tests have been readapted to support this new API.

Baptiste Lemaire 4361d6d163 Add simple heuristics for experimental mempurge. (#8583)
Summary:
Add `experimental_mempurge_policy` option flag and introduce two new `MemPurge` (Memtable Garbage Collection) policies: 'ALWAYS' and 'ALTERNATE'. Default value: ALTERNATE.
`ALWAYS`: every flush will first go through a `MemPurge` process. If the output is too big to fit into a single memtable, then the mempurge is aborted and a regular flush process carries on. `ALWAYS` is designed for user that need to reduce the number of L0 SST file created to a strict minimum, and can afford a small dent in performance (possibly hits to CPU usage, read efficiency, and maximum burst write throughput).
`ALTERNATE`: a flush is transformed into a `MemPurge` except if one of the memtables being flushed is the product of a previous `MemPurge`. `ALTERNATE` is a good tradeoff between reduction in number of L0 SST files created and performance. `ALTERNATE` perform particularly well for completely random garbage ratios, or garbage ratios anywhere in (0%,50%], and even higher when there is a wild variability in garbage ratios.
This PR also includes support for `experimental_mempurge_policy` in `db_bench`.
Testing was done locally by replacing all the `MemPurge` policies of the unit tests with `ALTERNATE`, as well as local testing with `db_crashtest.py` `whitebox` and `blackbox`. Overall, if an `ALWAYS` mempurge policy passes the tests, there is no reasons why an `ALTERNATE` policy would fail, and therefore the mempurge policy was set to `ALWAYS` for all mempurge unit tests.

Baptiste Lemaire c521a9ab2b Retire superfluous functions introduced in earlier mempurge PRs. (#8558)
Summary:
The main challenge to make the memtable garbage collection prototype (nicknamed `mempurge`) was to not get rid of WAL files that contain unflushed (but mempurged) data. That was successfully guaranteed by not writing the VersionEdit to the MANIFEST file after a successful mempurge.
By not writing VersionEdits to the `MANIFEST` file after a succesful mempurge operation, we do not change the earliest log file number that contains unflushed data: `cfd->GetLogNumber()` (`cfd->SetLogNumber()` is only called in `VersionSet::ProcessManifestWrites`). As a result, a number of functions introduced earlier just for the mempurge operation are not obscolete/redundant. (e.g.: `FlushJob::ExtractEarliestLogFileNumber`), and this PR aims at cleaning up all these now-unnecessary functions. In particular, we no longer need to store the earliest log file number in the `MemTable` struct itself. This PR therefore also reverts the `MemTable` struct to its original form.

Baptiste Lemaire 206845c057 Mempurge support for wal (#8528)
Summary:
In this PR, `mempurge` is made compatible with the Write Ahead Log: in case of recovery, the DB is now capable of recovering the data that was "mempurged" and kept in the `imm()` list of immutable memtables.
The twist was to add a uint64_t to the `memtable` struct to store the number of the earliest log file containing entries from the `memtable`. When a `Flush` operation is replaced with a `MemPurge`, the `VersionEdit` (which usually contains the new min log file number to pick up for recovery and the level 0 file path of the newly created SST file) is no longer appended to the manifest log, and every time the `deleteWal` method is called, a check is made on the list of immutable memtables.
This PR also includes a unit test that verifies that no data is lost upon Reopening of the database when the mempurge feature is activated. This extensive unit test includes two column families, with valid data contained in the imm() at time of "crash"/reopening (recovery).

Baptiste Lemaire 837705ad80 Make mempurge a background process (equivalent to in-memory compaction). (#8505)
Summary:
In https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/8454, I introduced a new process baptized `MemPurge` (memtable garbage collection). This new PR is built upon this past mempurge prototype.
In this PR, I made the `mempurge` process a background task, which provides superior performance since the mempurge process does not cling on the db_mutex anymore, and addresses severe restrictions from the past iteration (including a scenario where the past mempurge was failling, when a memtable was mempurged but was still referred to by an iterator/snapshot/...).
Now the mempurge process ressembles an in-memory compaction process: the stack of immutable memtables is filtered out, and the useful payload is used to populate an output memtable. If the output memtable is filled at more than 60% capacity (arbitrary heuristic) the mempurge process is aborted and a regular flush process takes place, else the output memtable is kept in the immutable memtable stack. Note that adding this output memtable to the `imm()` memtable stack does not trigger another flush process, so that the flush thread can go to sleep at the end of a successful mempurge.
MemPurge is activated by making the `experimental_allow_mempurge` flag `true`. When activated, the `MemPurge` process will always happen when the flush reason is `kWriteBufferFull`.
The 3 unit tests confirm that this process supports `Put`, `Get`, `Delete`, `DeleteRange` operators and is compatible with `Iterators` and `CompactionFilters`.

mrambacher 3dff28cf9b Use SystemClock* instead of std::shared_ptr<SystemClock> in lower level routines (#8033)
Summary:
For performance purposes, the lower level routines were changed to use a SystemClock* instead of a std::shared_ptr<SystemClock>.  The shared ptr has some performance degradation on certain hardware classes.

For most of the system, there is no risk of the pointer being deleted/invalid because the shared_ptr will be stored elsewhere.  For example, the ImmutableDBOptions stores the Env which has a std::shared_ptr<SystemClock> in it.  The SystemClock* within the ImmutableDBOptions is essentially a "short cut" to gain access to this constant resource.

There were a few classes (PeriodicWorkScheduler?) where the "short cut" property did not hold.  In those cases, the shared pointer was preserved.

Using db_bench readrandom perf_level=3 on my EC2 box, this change performed as well or better than 6.17:

6.17: readrandom   :      28.046 micros/op 854902 ops/sec;   61.3 MB/s (355999 of 355999 found)

PR: readrandom   :      27.500 micros/op 871909 ops/sec;   62.5 MB/s (367999 of 367999 found)

(Note that the times for 6.18 are prior to revert of the SystemClock).

mrambacher 12f1137355 Add a SystemClock class to capture the time functions of an Env (#7858)
Summary:
Introduces and uses a SystemClock class to RocksDB.  This class contains the time-related functions of an Env and these functions can be redirected from the Env to the SystemClock.

Many of the places that used an Env (Timer, PerfStepTimer, RepeatableThread, RateLimiter, WriteController) for time-related functions have been changed to use SystemClock instead.  There are likely more places that can be changed, but this is a start to show what can/should be done.  Over time it would be nice to migrate most (if not all) of the uses of the time functions from the Env to the SystemClock.

There are several Env classes that implement these functions.  Most of these have not been converted yet to SystemClock implementations; that will come in a subsequent PR.  It would be good to unify many of the Mock Timer implementations, so that they behave similarly and be tested similarly (some override Sleep, some use a MockSleep, etc).

Additionally, this change will allow new methods to be introduced to the SystemClock (like https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/7101 WaitFor) in a consistent manner across a smaller number of classes.

Yanqin Jin e062a719cc Fix assertion failure in bg flush (#7362)
Summary:
https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/7340 reports and reproduces an assertion failure caused by a combination of the following:
- atomic flush is disabled.
- a column family can appear multiple times in the flush queue at the same time. This behavior was introduced in release 5.17.

Consequently, it is possible that two flushes race with each other. One bg flush thread flushes all memtables. The other thread calls `FlushMemTableToOutputFile()` afterwards, and hits the assertion error below.

```
  assert(cfd->imm()->NumNotFlushed() != 0);
  assert(cfd->imm()->IsFlushPending());
```

Fix this by reverting the behavior. In non-atomic-flush case, a column family can appear in the flush queue at most once at the same time.

Zhichao Cao 4246888101 Pass IOStatus to write path and set retryable IO Error as hard error in BG jobs (#6487)
Summary:
In the current code base, we use Status to get and store the returned status from the call. Specifically, for IO related functions, the current Status cannot reflect the IO Error details such as error scope, error retryable attribute, and others. With the implementation of https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/5761, we have the new Wrapper for IO, which returns IOStatus instead of Status. However, the IOStatus is purged at the lower level of write path and transferred to Status.

The first job of this PR is to pass the IOStatus to the write path (flush, WAL write, and Compaction). The second job is to identify the Retryable IO Error as HardError, and set the bg_error_ as HardError. In this case, the DB Instance becomes read only. User is informed of the Status and need to take actions to deal with it (e.g., call db->Resume()).

anand76 afa2420c2b Introduce a new storage specific Env API (#5761)
Summary:
The current Env API encompasses both storage/file operations, as well as OS related operations. Most of the APIs return a Status, which does not have enough metadata about an error, such as whether its retry-able or not, scope (i.e fault domain) of the error etc., that may be required in order to properly handle a storage error. The file APIs also do not provide enough control over the IO SLA, such as timeout, prioritization, hinting about placement and redundancy etc.

This PR separates out the file/storage APIs from Env into a new FileSystem class. The APIs are updated to return an IOStatus with metadata about the error, as well as to take an IOOptions structure as input in order to allow more control over the IO.

The user can set both ```options.env``` and ```options.file_system``` to specify that RocksDB should use the former for OS related operations and the latter for storage operations. Internally, a ```CompositeEnvWrapper``` has been introduced that inherits from ```Env``` and redirects individual methods to either an ```Env``` implementation or the ```FileSystem``` as appropriate. When options are sanitized during ```DB::Open```, ```options.env``` is replaced with a newly allocated ```CompositeEnvWrapper``` instance if both env and file_system have been specified. This way, the rest of the RocksDB code can continue to function as before.

This PR also ports PosixEnv to the new API by splitting it into two - PosixEnv and PosixFileSystem. PosixEnv is defined as a sub-class of CompositeEnvWrapper, and threading/time functions are overridden with Posix specific implementations in order to avoid an extra level of indirection.

The ```CompositeEnvWrapper``` translates ```IOStatus``` return code to ```Status```, and sets the severity to ```kSoftError``` if the io_status is retryable. The error handling code in RocksDB can then recover the DB automatically.

Yi Wu 1f9d7c0f54 Fix OnFlushCompleted fired before flush result write to MANIFEST (#5908)
Summary:
When there are concurrent flush job on the same CF, `OnFlushCompleted` can be called before the flush result being install to LSM. Fixing the issue by passing `FlushJobInfo` through `MemTable`, and the thread who commit the flush result can fetch the `FlushJobInfo` and fire `OnFlushCompleted` on behave of the thread actually writing the SST.

Fix https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/5892

Siying Dong d59549298f Skip deleted WALs during recovery
Summary:
This patch record min log number to keep to the manifest while flushing SST files to ignore them and any WAL older than them during recovery. This is to avoid scenarios when we have a gap between the WAL files are fed to the recovery procedure. The gap could happen by for example out-of-order WAL deletion. Such gap could cause problems in 2PC recovery where the prepared and commit entry are placed into two separate WAL and gap in the WALs could result into not processing the WAL with the commit entry and hence breaking the 2PC recovery logic.

Before the commit, for 2PC case, we determined which log number to keep in FindObsoleteFiles(). We looked at the earliest logs with outstanding prepare entries, or prepare entries whose respective commit or abort are in memtable. With the commit, the same calculation is done while we apply the SST flush. Just before installing the flush file, we precompute the earliest log file to keep after the flush finishes using the same logic (but skipping the memtables just flushed), record this information to the manifest entry for this new flushed SST file. This pre-computed value is also remembered in memory, and will later be used to determine whether a log file can be deleted. This value is unlikely to change until next flush because the commit entry will stay in memtable. (In WritePrepared, we could have removed the older log files as soon as all prepared entries are committed. It's not yet done anyway. Even if we do it, the only thing we loss with this new approach is earlier log deletion between two flushes, which does not guarantee to happen anyway because the obsolete file clean-up function is only executed after flush or compaction)

This min log number to keep is stored in the manifest using the safely-ignore customized field of AddFile entry, in order to guarantee that the DB generated using newer release can be opened by previous releases no older than 4.2.

Sagar Vemuri 1cd45cd1b3 FIFO Compaction with TTL
Summary:
Introducing FIFO compactions with TTL.

FIFO compaction is based on size only which makes it tricky to enable in production as use cases can have organic growth. A user requested an option to drop files based on the time of their creation instead of the total size.

To address that request:
- Added a new TTL option to FIFO compaction options.
- Updated FIFO compaction score to take TTL into consideration.
- Added a new table property, creation_time, to keep track of when the SST file is created.
- Creation_time is set as below:
  - On Flush: Set to the time of flush.
  - On Compaction: Set to the max creation_time of all the files involved in the compaction.
  - On Repair and Recovery: Set to the time of repair/recovery.
  - Old files created prior to this code change will have a creation_time of 0.
- FIFO compaction with TTL is enabled when ttl > 0. All files older than ttl will be deleted during compaction. i.e. `if (file.creation_time < (current_time - ttl)) then delete(file)`. This will enable cases where you might want to delete all files older than, say, 1 day.
- FIFO compaction will fall back to the prior way of deleting files based on size if:
  - the creation_time of all files involved in compaction is 0.
  - the total size (of all SST files combined) does not drop below `compaction_options_fifo.max_table_files_size` even if the files older than ttl are deleted.

This feature is not supported if max_open_files != -1 or with table formats other than Block-based.

**Test Plan:**
Added tests.

Summary: Multiput atomiciy is broken across multiple column families if we don't sync WAL before flushing one column family. The WAL file may contain a write batch containing writes to a key to the CF to be flushed and a key to other CF. If we don't sync WAL before flushing, if machine crashes after flushing, the write batch will only be partial recovered. Data to other CFs are lost.

agiardullo 3bfd3d39a3 Use SST files for Transaction conflict detection
Summary:
Currently, transactions can fail even if there is no actual write conflict.  This is due to relying on only the memtables to check for write-conflicts.  Users have to tune memtable settings to try to avoid this, but it's hard to figure out exactly how to tune these settings.

With this diff, TransactionDB will use both memtables and SST files to determine if there are any write conflicts.  This relies on the fact that BlockBasedTable stores sequence numbers for all writes that happen after any open snapshot.  Also, D50295 is needed to prevent SingleDelete from disappearing writes (the TODOs in this test code will be fixed once the other diff is approved and merged).

Note that Optimistic transactions will still rely on tuning memtable settings as we do not want to read from SST while on the write thread.  Also, memtable settings can still be used to reduce how often TransactionDB needs to read SST files.

Test Plan: unit tests, db bench

At the same time, separate the cleanup function to a separate class and let both of InternalIterator and Iterator inherit from it.

Igor Canadi 4ab26c5ad1 Smarter purging during flush
Summary:
Currently, we only purge duplicate keys and deletions during flush if `earliest_seqno_in_memtable <= newest_snapshot`. This means that the newest snapshot happened before we first created the memtable. This is almost never true for MyRocks and MongoRocks.

This patch makes purging during flush able to understand snapshots. The main logic is copied from compaction_job.cc, although the logic over there is much more complicated and extensive. However, we should try to merge the common functionality at some point.

I need this patch to implement no_overwrite_i_promise functionality for flush. We'll also need this to support SingleDelete() during Flush(). @yoshinorim requested the feature.

Igor Canadi 52d8347a91 EventLogger
Summary:
Here's my proposal for making our LOGs easier to read by machines.

The idea is to dump all events as JSON objects. JSON is easy to read by humans, but more importantly, it's easy to read by machines. That way, we can parse this, load into SQLite/mongo and then query or visualize.

I started with table_create and table_delete events, but if everybody agrees, I'll continue by adding more events (flush/compaction/etc etc)

Test Plan:
Ran db_bench. Observed:
2015/01/15-14:13:25.788019 1105ef000 EVENT_LOG_v1 {"time_micros": 1421360005788015, "event": "table_file_creation", "file_number": 12, "file_size": 1909699}
2015/01/15-14:13:25.956500 110740000 EVENT_LOG_v1 {"time_micros": 1421360005956498, "event": "table_file_deletion", "file_number": 12}

Yueh-Hsuan Chiang 181191a1e4 Add a counter for collecting the wait time on db mutex.
Summary:
Add a counter for collecting the wait time on db mutex.
Also add MutexWrapper and CondVarWrapper for measuring wait time.

Test Plan:
./db_test
export ROCKSDB_TESTS=MutexWaitStats
./db_test

verify stats output using db_bench
make clean
make release
./db_bench --statistics=1 --benchmarks=fillseq,readwhilewriting --num=10000 --threads=10

Sample output:
    rocksdb.db.mutex.wait.micros COUNT : 7546866

sdong d888c95748 Sync WAL Directory and DB Path if different from DB directory
Summary:
1. If WAL directory is different from db directory. Sync the directory after creating a log file under it.
2. After creating an SST file, sync its parent directory instead of DB directory.
3. change the check of kResetDeleteUnsyncedFiles in fault_injection_test. Since we changed the behavior to sync log files' parent directory after first WAL sync, instead of creating, kResetDeleteUnsyncedFiles will not guarantee to show post sync updates.

Test Plan: make all check

Yueh-Hsuan Chiang 28c82ff1b3 CompactFiles, EventListener and GetDatabaseMetaData
Summary:
This diff adds three sets of APIs to RocksDB.

= GetColumnFamilyMetaData =
* This APIs allow users to obtain the current state of a RocksDB instance on one column family.
* See GetColumnFamilyMetaData in include/rocksdb/db.h

= EventListener =
* A virtual class that allows users to implement a set of
  call-back functions which will be called when specific
  events of a RocksDB instance happens.
* To register EventListener, simply insert an EventListener to ColumnFamilyOptions::listeners

= CompactFiles =
* CompactFiles API inputs a set of file numbers and an output level, and RocksDB
  will try to compact those files into the specified level.

= Example =
* Example code can be found in example/compact_files_example.cc, which implements
  a simple external compactor using EventListener, GetColumnFamilyMetaData, and
  CompactFiles API.

Test Plan:
listener_test
compactor_test
example/compact_files_example
export ROCKSDB_TESTS=CompactFiles
db_test
export ROCKSDB_TESTS=MetaData
db_test
