Summary:
This is a proof of concept of a RocksDB blob log file. The actual value of the Put() is appended to a blob log using normal data block format, and the handle of the block is written as the value of the key in RocksDB.
The prototype only supports Put() and Get(). It doesn't support DB restart, garbage collection, Write() call, iterator, snapshots, etc.

Summary:
Persistent cache tier is the tier abstraction that can work for any block
device based device mounted on a file system. The design/implementation can
handle any generic block device.
Any generic block support is achieved by generalizing the access patten as
{io-size, q-depth, direct-io/buffered}.
We have specifically tested and adapted the IO path for NVM and SSD.
Persistent cache tier consists of there parts :
1) File layout
Provides the implementation for handling IO path for reading and writing data
(key/value pair).
2) Meta-data
Provides the implementation for handling the index for persistent read cache.
3) Implementation
It binds (1) and (2) and flushed out the PersistentCacheTier interface

This provides provides an implementation of PersistentCacheTier that is

Why do we need this tier ?
This is ideal as tier 0. This tier can host data that is too hot.
Why can't we use Cache variants ?
Yes you can use them instead. This tier can potentially outperform BlockCache
in RAW mode by virtue of compression and compressed cache in block cache doesn't
seem very popular. Potentially this tier can be modified to under stand the
disadvantage of the tier below and retain data that the tier below is bad at

Summary:
Consider the following WAL with 4 batch entries prefixed with their sequence at time of memtable insert.
[1: BEGIN_PREPARE, PUT, PUT, PUT, PUT, END_PREPARE(a)]
[1: BEGIN_PREPARE, PUT, PUT, PUT, PUT, END_PREPARE(b)]
[4: COMMIT(a)]
[7: COMMIT(b)]
The first two batches do not consume any sequence numbers so are both prefixed with seq=1.
For 2pc commit, memtable insertion takes place before COMMIT batch is written to WAL.
We can see that sequence number consumption takes place between WAL entries giving us the seemingly sparse sequence prefix for WAL entries.
This is a valid WAL.
Because with 2PC markers one WriteBatch points to another batch containing its inserts a writebatch can consume more or less sequence numbers than the number of sequence consuming entries that it contains.
We can see that, given the entries in the WAL, 6 sequence ids were consumed. Yet on recovery the maximum sequence consumed would be 7 + 3 (the number of sequence numbers consumed by COMMIT(b))
So, now upon recovery we must track the actual consumption of sequence numbers.
In the provided scenario there will be no sequence gaps, but it is possible to produce a sequence gap. This should not be a problem though. correct?

For testing backups, we needed an Env that is fully isolated from other

This diff introduces a new Env, "ChrootEnv", that translates paths such that the
chroot directory appears to be the root directory. This way, multiple Envs can
be isolated in the filesystem by using different chroot directories. Since we
use the filesystem, all directory operations are trivially supported.

Summary:
This diff adds support for concurrent adds to the skiplist memtable
implementations. Memory allocation is made thread-safe by the addition of
a spinlock, with small per-core buffers to avoid contention. Concurrent
memtable writes are made via an additional method and don't impose a
performance overhead on the non-concurrent case, so parallelism can be
selected on a per-batch basis.
Write thread synchronization is an increasing bottleneck for higher levels
of concurrency, so this diff adds --enable_write_thread_adaptive_yield
(default off). This feature causes threads joining a write batch
group to spin for a short time (default 100 usec) using sched_yield,
rather than going to sleep on a mutex. If the timing of the yield calls
indicates that another thread has actually run during the yield then
spinning is avoided. This option improves performance for concurrent
situations even without parallel adds, although it has the potential to
increase CPU usage (and the heuristic adaptation is not yet mature).
Parallel writes are not currently compatible with
inplace updates, update callbacks, or delete filtering.
Enable it with --allow_concurrent_memtable_write (and
--enable_write_thread_adaptive_yield). Parallel memtable writes
are performance neutral when there is no actual parallelism, and in
my experiments (SSD server-class Linux and varying contention and key
sizes for fillrandom) they are always a performance win when there is
more than one thread.
Statistics are updated earlier in the write path, dropping the number
of DB mutex acquisitions from 2 to 1 for almost all cases.
This diff was motivated and inspired by Yahoo's cLSM work. It is more
conservative than cLSM: RocksDB's write batch group leader role is
preserved (along with all of the existing flush and write throttling
logic) and concurrent writers are blocked until all memtable insertions
have completed and the sequence number has been advanced, to preserve
linearizability.
My test config is "db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -threads=$T
-batch_size=1 -memtablerep=skip_list -value_size=100 --num=1000000/$T
-level0_slowdown_writes_trigger=9999 -level0_stop_writes_trigger=9999
-disable_auto_compactions --max_write_buffer_number=8
-max_background_flushes=8 --disable_wal --write_buffer_size=160000000
--block_size=16384 --allow_concurrent_memtable_write" on a two-socket
Xeon E5-2660 @ 2.2Ghz with lots of memory and an SSD hard drive. With 1
thread I get ~440Kops/sec. Peak performance for 1 socket (numactl
-N1) is slightly more than 1Mops/sec, at 16 threads. Peak performance
across both sockets happens at 30 threads, and is ~900Kops/sec, although
with fewer threads there is less performance loss when the system has
background work.

This diff has the effect of changing the sequence of skip list node
height choices made by tests, so it has the potential to cause unit

of the skip list. Tests that try to exactly trigger a compaction are
likely suspects for this problem (these tests have always been brittle to
changes in the skiplist details). I've minimizes this risk by reseeding
the main thread's Random at the beginning of each test, increasing the
universal compaction size_ratio limit from 101% to 105% for some tests,
