Peter Dillinger 003e72b201 Use size_t for filter APIs, protect against overflow (#7726)
Summary:
Deprecate CalculateNumEntry and replace with
ApproximateNumEntries (better name) using size_t instead of int and
uint32_t, to minimize confusing casts and bad overflow behavior
(possible though probably not realistic). Bloom sizes are now explicitly
capped at max size supported by implementations: just under 4GiB for
fv=5 Bloom, and just under 512MiB for fv<5 Legacy Bloom. This
hardening could help to set up for fuzzing.

Also, since RocksDB only uses this information as an approximation
for trying to hit certain sizes for partitioned filters, it's more important
that the function be reasonably fast than for it to be completely
accurate. It's hard enough to be 100% accurate for Ribbon (currently
reversing CalculateSpace) that adding optimize_filters_for_memory
into the mix is just not worth trying to be 100% accurate for num
entries for bytes.

Also:
- Cleaned up filter_policy.h to remove MSVC warning handling and
potentially unsafe use of exception for "not implemented"
- Correct the number of entries limit beyond which current Ribbon
implementation falls back on Bloom instead.
- Consistently use "num_entries" rather than "num_entry"
- Remove LegacyBloomBitsBuilder::CalculateNumEntry as it's essentially
obsolete from general implementation
BuiltinFilterBitsBuilder::CalculateNumEntries.
- Fix filter_bench to skip some tests that don't make sense when only
one or a small number of filters has been generated.

Test Plan:
expanded existing unit tests for CalculateSpace /
ApproximateNumEntries. Also manually used filter_bench to verify Legacy and
fv=5 Bloom size caps work (much too expensive for unit test). Note that
the actual bits per key is below requested due to space cap.

Peter Dillinger 60af964372 Experimental (production candidate) SST schema for Ribbon filter (#7658)
Summary:
Added experimental public API for Ribbon filter:
NewExperimentalRibbonFilterPolicy(). This experimental API will
take a "Bloom equivalent" bits per key, and configure the Ribbon
filter for the same FP rate as Bloom would have but ~30% space
savings. (Note: optimize_filters_for_memory is not yet implemented
for Ribbon filter. That can be added with no effect on schema.)

Internally, the Ribbon filter is configured using a "one_in_fp_rate"
value, which is 1 over desired FP rate. For example, use 100 for 1%
FP rate. I'm expecting this will be used in the future for configuring
Bloom-like filters, as I expect people to more commonly hold constant
the filter accuracy and change the space vs. time trade-off, rather than
hold constant the space (per key) and change the accuracy vs. time
trade-off, though we might make that available.

```

168.166 / 238.488 = 0.705  -> 29.5% space reduction

130.851 / 34.1341 = 3.83x construction time for this Ribbon filter vs. lastest Bloom filter (could make that as little as about 2.5x for less space reduction)

### Working around a hashing "flaw"

bloom_test discovered a flaw in the simple hashing applied in
StandardHasher when num_starts == 1 (num_slots == 128), showing an
excessively high FP rate.  The problem is that when many entries, on the
order of number of hash bits or kCoeffBits, are associated with the same
start location, the correlation between the CoeffRow and ResultRow (for
efficiency) can lead to a solution that is "universal," or nearly so, for
entries mapping to that start location. (Normally, variance in start
location breaks the effective association between CoeffRow and
ResultRow; the same value for CoeffRow is effectively different if start
locations are different.) Without kUseSmash and with num_starts > 1 (thus
num_starts ~= num_slots), this flaw should be completely irrelevant.  Even
with 10M slots, the chances of a single slot having just 16 (or more)
entries map to it--not enough to cause an FP problem, which would be local
to that slot if it happened--is 1 in millions. This spreadsheet formula
shows that: =1/(10000000*(1 - POISSON(15, 1, TRUE)))

As kUseSmash==false (the setting for Standard128RibbonBitsBuilder) is
intended for CPU efficiency of filters with many more entries/slots than
kCoeffBits, a very reasonable work-around is to disallow num_starts==1
when !kUseSmash, by making the minimum non-zero number of slots
2*kCoeffBits. This is the work-around I've applied. This also means that
the new Ribbon filter schema (Standard128RibbonBitsBuilder) is not
space-efficient for less than a few hundred entries. Because of this, I
have made it fall back on constructing a Bloom filter, under existing
schema, when that is more space efficient for small filters. (We can
change this in the future if we want.)

TODO: better unit tests for this case in ribbon_test, and probably
update StandardHasher for kUseSmash case so that it can scale nicely to
small filters.

### Other related changes

* Add Ribbon filter to stress/crash test
* Add Ribbon filter to filter_bench as -impl=3
* Add option string support, as in "filter_policy=experimental_ribbon:5.678;"
where 5.678 is the Bloom equivalent bits per key.
* Rename internal mode BloomFilterPolicy::kAuto to kAutoBloom
* Add a general BuiltinFilterBitsBuilder::CalculateNumEntry based on
binary searching CalculateSpace (inefficient), so that subclasses
(especially experimental ones) don't have to provide an efficient
implementation inverting CalculateSpace.
* Minor refactor FastLocalBloomBitsBuilder for new base class
XXH3pFilterBitsBuilder shared with new Standard128RibbonBitsBuilder,
which allows the latter to fall back on Bloom construction in some
extreme cases.
* Mostly updated bloom_test for Ribbon filter, though a test like
FullBloomTest::Schema is a next TODO to ensure schema stability
(in case this becomes production-ready schema as it is).
* Add some APIs to ribbon_impl.h for configuring Ribbon filters.
Although these are reasonably covered by bloom_test, TODO more unit
tests in ribbon_test
* Added a "tool" FindOccupancyForSuccessRate to ribbon_test to get data
for constructing the linear approximations in GetNumSlotsFor95PctSuccess.

Test Plan:
Some unit tests updated but other testing is left TODO. This
is considered experimental but laying down schema compatibility as early
as possible in case it proves production-quality. Also tested in
stress/crash test.

Peter Dillinger 5b2bbacb6f Minimize memory internal fragmentation for Bloom filters (#6427)
Summary:
New experimental option BBTO::optimize_filters_for_memory builds
filters that maximize their use of "usable size" from malloc_usable_size,
which is also used to compute block cache charges.

Rather than always "rounding up," we track state in the
BloomFilterPolicy object to mix essentially "rounding down" and
"rounding up" so that the average FP rate of all generated filters is
the same as without the option. (YMMV as heavily accessed filters might
be unluckily lower accuracy.)

Thus, the option near-minimizes what the block cache considers as
"memory used" for a given target Bloom filter false positive rate and
Bloom filter implementation. There are no forward or backward
compatibility issues with this change, though it only works on the
format_version=5 Bloom filter.

With Jemalloc, we see about 10% reduction in memory footprint (and block
cache charge) for Bloom filters, but 1-2% increase in storage footprint,
due to encoding efficiency losses (FP rate is non-linear with bits/key).

Why not weighted random round up/down rather than state tracking? By
only requiring malloc_usable_size, we don't actually know what the next
larger and next smaller usable sizes for the allocator are. We pick a
requested size, accept and use whatever usable size it has, and use the
difference to inform our next choice. This allows us to narrow in on the
right balance without tracking/predicting usable sizes.

Why not weight history of generated filter false positive rates by
number of keys? This could lead to excess skew in small filters after
generating a large filter.

Peter Dillinger 8aa99fc71e Warn on excessive keys for legacy Bloom filter with 32-bit hash (#6317)
Summary:
With many millions of keys, the old Bloom filter implementation
for the block-based table (format_version <= 4) would have excessive FP
rate due to the limitations of feeding the Bloom filter with a 32-bit hash.
This change computes an estimated inflated FP rate due to this effect
and warns in the log whenever an SST filter is constructed (almost
certainly a "full" not "partitioned" filter) that exceeds 1.5x FP rate
due to this effect. The detailed condition is only checked if 3 million
keys or more have been added to a filter, as this should be a lower
bound for common bits/key settings (< 20).

Recommended remedies include smaller SST file size, using
format_version >= 5 (for new Bloom filter), or using partitioned
filters.

This does not change behavior other than generating warnings for some
constructed filters using the old implementation.
Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/6317

Test Plan:
Example with warning, 15M keys @ 15 bits / key: (working_mem_size_mb is just to stop after building one filter if it's large)

    $ ./filter_bench -quick -impl=0 -working_mem_size_mb=1 -bits_per_key=15 -average_keys_per_filter=15000000 2>&1 | grep 'FP rate'
    [WARN] [/block_based/filter_policy.cc:292] Using legacy SST/BBT Bloom filter with excessive key count (15.0M @ 15bpk), causing estimated 1.8x higher filter FP rate. Consider using new Bloom with format_version>=5, smaller SST file size, or partitioned filters.
    Predicted FP rate %: 0.766702
    Average FP rate %: 0.66846

Example without warning (150K keys):

    $ ./filter_bench -quick -impl=0 -working_mem_size_mb=1 -bits_per_key=15 -average_keys_per_filter=150000 2>&1 | grep 'FP rate'
    Predicted FP rate %: 0.422857
    Average FP rate %: 0.379301
    $

With more samples at 15 bits/key:
  150K keys -> no warning; actual: 0.379% FP rate (baseline)
  1M keys -> no warning; actual: 0.396% FP rate, 1.045x
  9M keys -> no warning; actual: 0.563% FP rate, 1.485x
  10M keys -> warning (1.5x); actual: 0.564% FP rate, 1.488x
  15M keys -> warning (1.8x); actual: 0.668% FP rate, 1.76x
  25M keys -> warning (2.4x); actual: 0.880% FP rate, 2.32x

At 10 bits/key:
  150K keys -> no warning; actual: 1.17% FP rate (baseline)
  1M keys -> no warning; actual: 1.16% FP rate
  10M keys -> no warning; actual: 1.32% FP rate, 1.13x
  25M keys -> no warning; actual: 1.63% FP rate, 1.39x
  35M keys -> warning (1.6x); actual: 1.81% FP rate, 1.55x

At 5 bits/key:
  150K keys -> no warning; actual: 9.32% FP rate (baseline)
  25M keys -> no warning; actual: 9.62% FP rate, 1.03x
  200M keys -> no warning; actual: 12.2% FP rate, 1.31x
  250M keys -> warning (1.5x); actual: 12.8% FP rate, 1.37x
  300M keys -> warning (1.6x); actual: 13.4% FP rate, 1.43x

The reason for the modest inaccuracy at low bits/key is that the assumption of independence between a collision between 32-hash values feeding the filter and an FP in the filter is not quite true for implementations using "simple" logic to compute indices from the stock hash result. There's math on this in my dissertation, but I don't think it's worth the effort just for these extreme cases (> 100 million keys and low-ish bits/key).

Peter Dillinger a92bd0a183 Optimize memory and CPU for building new Bloom filter (#6175)
Summary:
The filter bits builder collects all the hashes to add in memory before adding them (because the number of keys is not known until we've walked over all the keys). Existing code uses a std::vector for this, which can mean up to 2x than necessary space allocated (and not freed) and up to ~2x write amplification in memory. Using std::deque uses close to minimal space (for large filters, the only time it matters), no write amplification, frees memory while building, and no need for large contiguous memory area. The only cost is more calls to allocator, which does not appear to matter, at least in benchmark test.

For now, this change only applies to the new (format_version=5) Bloom filter implementation, to ease before-and-after comparison downstream.

Temporary memory use during build is about the only way the new Bloom filter could regress vs. the old (because of upgrade to 64-bit hash) and that should only matter for full filters. This change should largely mitigate that potential regression.
Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/6175

Test Plan:
Using filter_bench with -new_builder option and 6M keys per filter is like large full filter (improvement). 10k keys and no -new_builder is like partitioned filters (about the same). (Corresponding configurations run simultaneously on devserver.)

Peter Dillinger ca3b6c28c9 Expose and elaborate FilterBuildingContext (#6088)
Summary:
This change enables custom implementations of FilterPolicy to
wrap a variety of NewBloomFilterPolicy and select among them based on
contextual information such as table level and compaction style.

* Moves FilterBuildingContext to public API and elaborates it with more
useful data. (It would be nice to put more general options-like data,
but at the time this object is constructed, we are using internal APIs
ImmutableCFOptions and MutableCFOptions and don't have easy access to
ColumnFamilyOptions that I can tell.)

* Renames BloomFilterPolicy::GetFilterBitsBuilderInternal to
GetBuilderWithContext, because it's now public.

* Plumbs through the table's "level_at_creation" for filter building
context.

* Simplified some tests by adding GetBuilder() to
MockBlockBasedTableTester.

* Adds test as DBBloomFilterTest.ContextCustomFilterPolicy, including
sample wrapper class LevelAndStyleCustomFilterPolicy.

* Fixes a cross-test bug in DBBloomFilterTest.OptimizeFiltersForHits
where it does not reset perf context.

Peter Dillinger 57f3032285 Allow fractional bits/key in BloomFilterPolicy (#6092)
Summary:
There's no technological impediment to allowing the Bloom
filter bits/key to be non-integer (fractional/decimal) values, and it
provides finer control over the memory vs. accuracy trade-off. This is
especially handy in using the format_version=5 Bloom filter in place
of the old one, because bits_per_key=9.55 provides the same accuracy as
the old bits_per_key=10.

This change not only requires refining the logic for choosing the best
num_probes for a given bits/key setting, it revealed a flaw in that logic.
As bits/key gets higher, the best num_probes for a cache-local Bloom
filter is closer to bpk / 2 than to bpk * 0.69, the best choice for a
standard Bloom filter. For example, at 16 bits per key, the best
num_probes is 9 (FP rate = 0.0843%) not 11 (FP rate = 0.0884%).
This change fixes and refines that logic (for the format_version=5
Bloom filter only, just in case) based on empirical tests to find
accuracy inflection points between each num_probes.

Although bits_per_key is now specified as a double, the new Bloom
filter converts/rounds this to "millibits / key" for predictable/precise
internal computations. Just in case of unforeseen compatibility
issues, we round to the nearest whole number bits / key for the
legacy Bloom filter, so as not to unlock new behaviors for it.

Peter Dillinger f059c7d9b9 New Bloom filter implementation for full and partitioned filters (#6007)
Summary:
Adds an improved, replacement Bloom filter implementation (FastLocalBloom) for full and partitioned filters in the block-based table. This replacement is faster and more accurate, especially for high bits per key or millions of keys in a single filter.

Speed

The improved speed, at least on recent x86_64, comes from
* Using fastrange instead of modulo (%)
* Using our new hash function (XXH3 preview, added in a previous commit), which is much faster for large keys and only *slightly* slower on keys around 12 bytes if hashing the same size many thousands of times in a row.
* Optimizing the Bloom filter queries with AVX2 SIMD operations. (Added AVX2 to the USE_SSE=1 build.) Careful design was required to support (a) SIMD-optimized queries, (b) compatible non-SIMD code that's simple and efficient, (c) flexible choice of number of probes, and (d) essentially maximized accuracy for a cache-local Bloom filter. Probes are made eight at a time, so any number of probes up to 8 is the same speed, then up to 16, etc.
* Prefetching cache lines when building the filter. Although this optimization could be applied to the old structure as well, it seems to balance out the small added cost of accumulating 64 bit hashes for adding to the filter rather than 32 bit hashes.

Here's nominal speed data from filter_bench (200MB in filters, about 10k keys each, 10 bits filter data / key, 6 probes, avg key size 24 bytes, includes hashing time) on Skylake DE (relatively low clock speed):

$ ./filter_bench -quick -impl=2 -net_includes_hashing # New Bloom filter
Build avg ns/key: 47.7135
Mixed inside/outside queries...
  Single filter net ns/op: 26.2825
  Random filter net ns/op: 150.459
    Average FP rate %: 0.954651
$ ./filter_bench -quick -impl=0 -net_includes_hashing # Old Bloom filter
Build avg ns/key: 47.2245
Mixed inside/outside queries...
  Single filter net ns/op: 63.2978
  Random filter net ns/op: 188.038
    Average FP rate %: 1.13823

Similar build time but dramatically faster query times on hot data (63 ns to 26 ns), and somewhat faster on stale data (188 ns to 150 ns). Performance differences on batched and skewed query loads are between these extremes as expected.

The only other interesting thing about speed is "inside" (query key was added to filter) vs. "outside" (query key was not added to filter) query times. The non-SIMD implementations are substantially slower when most queries are "outside" vs. "inside". This goes against what one might expect or would have observed years ago, as "outside" queries only need about two probes on average, due to short-circuiting, while "inside" always have num_probes (say 6). The problem is probably the nastily unpredictable branch. The SIMD implementation has few branches (very predictable) and has pretty consistent running time regardless of query outcome.

Accuracy

The generally improved accuracy (re: Issue https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/5857) comes from a better design for probing indices
within a cache line (re: Issue https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/4120) and improved accuracy for millions of keys in a single filter from using a 64-bit hash function (XXH3p). Design details in code comments.

Accuracy data (generalizes, except old impl gets worse with millions of keys):
Memory bits per key: FP rate percent old impl -> FP rate percent new impl
6: 5.70953 -> 5.69888
8: 2.45766 -> 2.29709
10: 1.13977 -> 0.959254
12: 0.662498 -> 0.411593
16: 0.353023 -> 0.0873754
24: 0.261552 -> 0.0060971
50: 0.225453 -> ~0.00003 (less than 1 in a million queries are FP)

Fixes https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/5857
Fixes https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/4120

Unlike the old implementation, this implementation has a fixed cache line size (64 bytes). At 10 bits per key, the accuracy of this new implementation is very close to the old implementation with 128-byte cache line size. If there's sufficient demand, this implementation could be generalized.

Compatibility

Although old releases would see the new structure as corrupt filter data and read the table as if there's no filter, we've decided only to enable the new Bloom filter with new format_version=5. This provides a smooth path for automatic adoption over time, with an option for early opt-in.
Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/6007

Test Plan: filter_bench has been used thoroughly to validate speed, accuracy, and correctness. Unit tests have been carefully updated to exercise new and old implementations, as well as the logic to select an implementation based on context (format_version).

Peter Dillinger 18f57f5ef8 Add new persistent 64-bit hash (#5984)
Summary:
For upcoming new SST filter implementations, we will use a new
64-bit hash function (XXH3 preview, slightly modified). This change
updates hash.{h,cc} for that change, adds unit tests, and out-of-lines
the implementations to keep hash.h as clean/small as possible.

In developing the unit tests, I discovered that the XXH3 preview always
returns zero for the empty string. Zero is problematic for some
algorithms (including an upcoming SST filter implementation) if it
occurs more often than at the "natural" rate, so it should not be
returned from trivial values using trivial seeds. I modified our fork
of XXH3 to return a modest hash of the seed for the empty string.

With hash function details out-of-lines in hash.h, it makes sense to
enable XXH_INLINE_ALL, so that direct calls to XXH64/XXH32/XXH3p
are inlined. To fix array-bounds warnings on some inline calls, I
injected some casts to uintptr_t in xxhash.cc. (Issue reported to Yann.)
Revised: Reverted using XXH_INLINE_ALL for now.  Some Facebook
checks are unhappy about #include on xxhash.cc file. I would
fix that by rename to xxhash_cc.h, but to best preserve history I want
to do that in a separate commit (PR) from the uintptr casts.

Also updated filter_bench for this change, improving the performance
predictability of dry run hashing and adding support for 64-bit hash
(for upcoming new SST filter implementations, minor dead code in the
tool for now).

Summary:
* Adds support for plain table filter. This is not critical right now, but does add a -impl flag that will be useful for new filter implementations initially targeted at block-based table (and maybe later ported to plain table)
* Better mixing of inside vs. outside queries, for more realism
* A -best_case option handy for implementation tuning inner loop
* Option for whether to include hashing time in dry run / net timings

No modifications to production code, just filter_bench.

Peter Dillinger 2837008525 Vary key size and alignment in filter_bench (#5933)
Summary:
The first version of filter_bench has selectable key size
but that size does not vary throughout a test run. This artificially
favors "branchy" hash functions like the existing BloomHash,
MurmurHash1, probably because of optimal return for branch prediction.

This change primarily varies those key sizes from -2 to +2 bytes vs.
the average selected size. We also set the default key size at 24 to
better reflect our best guess of typical key size.

But steadily random key sizes may not be realistic either. So this
change introduces a new filter_bench option:
-vary_key_size_log2_interval=n where the same key size is used 2^n
times and then changes to another size. I've set the default at 5
(32 times same size) as a compromise between deployments with
rather consistent vs. rather variable key sizes. On my Skylake
system, the performance boost to MurmurHash1 largely lies between
n=10 and n=15.

Also added -vary_key_alignment (bool, now default=true), though this
doesn't currently seem to matter in hash functions under
consideration.

This change also does a "dry run" for each testing scenario, to improve
the accuracy of those numbers, as there was more difference between
scenarios than expected. Subtracting gross test run times from dry run
times is now also embedded in the output, because these "net" times are
generally the most useful.

Levi Tamasi 29ccf2075c Store the filter bits reader alongside the filter block contents (#5936)
Summary:
Amongst other things, PR https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/5504 refactored the filter block readers so that
only the filter block contents are stored in the block cache (as opposed to the
earlier design where the cache stored the filter block reader itself, leading to
potentially dangling pointers and concurrency bugs). However, this change
introduced a performance hit since with the new code, the metadata fields are
re-parsed upon every access. This patch reunites the block contents with the
filter bits reader to eliminate this overhead; since this is still a self-contained
pure data object, it is safe to store it in the cache. (Note: this is similar to how
the zstd digest is handled.)

After:
+  Dry run ns/op: 22.2301
+  Single filter run ns/op: 47.4313
+  Random filter ns/op: 115.9

Only tests filters for the block-based table (full filters and
