Peter Dillinger 126c223714 Remove deprecated block-based filter (#10184)
Summary:
In https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/9535, release 7.0, we hid the old block-based filter from being created using
the public API, because of its inefficiency. Although we normally maintain read compatibility
on old DBs forever, filters are not required for reading a DB, only for optimizing read
performance. Thus, it should be acceptable to remove this code and the substantial
maintenance burden it carries as useful features are developed and validated (such
as user timestamp).

This change completely removes the code for reading and writing the old block-based
filters, net removing about 1370 lines of code no longer needed. Options removed from
testing / benchmarking tools. The prior existence is only evident in a couple of places:
* `CacheEntryRole::kDeprecatedFilterBlock` - We can update this public API enum in
a major release to minimize source code incompatibilities.
* A warning is logged when an old table file is opened that used the old block-based
filter. This is provided as a courtesy, and would be a pain to unit test, so manual testing
should suffice. Unfortunately, sst_dump does not tell you whether a file uses
block-based filter, and the structure of the code makes it very difficult to fix.
* To detect that case, `kObsoleteFilterBlockPrefix` (renamed from `kFilterBlockPrefix`)
for metaindex is maintained (for now).

Other notes:
* In some cases where numbers are associated with filter configurations, we have had to
update the assigned numbers so that they all correspond to something that exists.
* Fixed potential stat counting bug by assuming `filter_checked = false` for cases
like `filter == nullptr` rather than assuming `filter_checked = true`
* Removed obsolete `block_offset` and `prefix_extractor` parameters from several
functions.
* Removed some unnecessary checks `if (!table_prefix_extractor() && !prefix_extractor)`
because the caller guarantees the prefix extractor exists and is compatible

Peter Dillinger 8c681087c7 Refactor FilterPolicies toward Customizable (#9567)
Summary:
Some changes to make it easier to make FilterPolicy
customizable. Especially, create distinct classes for the different
testing-only and user-facing built-in FilterPolicy modes.

Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/9567

Test Plan:
tests updated, with no intended difference in functionality
tested. No difference in test performance seen as a result of moving to
string-based filter type configuration.

Peter Dillinger 68a9c186d0 FilterPolicy API changes for 7.0 (#9501)
Summary:
* Inefficient block-based filter is no longer customizable in the public
API, though (for now) can still be enabled.
  * Removed deprecated FilterPolicy::CreateFilter() and
  FilterPolicy::KeyMayMatch()
  * Removed `rocksdb_filterpolicy_create()` from C API
* Change meaning of nullptr return from GetBuilderWithContext() from "use
block-based filter" to "generate no filter in this case." This is a
cleaner solution to the proposal in https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/8250.
  * Also, when user specifies bits_per_key < 0.5, we now round this down
  to "no filter" because we expect a filter with >= 80% FP rate is
  unlikely to be worth the CPU cost of accessing it (esp with
  cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 or partition_filters=1).
  * bits_per_key >= 0.5 and < 1.0 is still rounded up to 1.0 (for 62% FP
  rate)
  * This also gives us some support for configuring filters from OPTIONS
  file as currently saved: `filter_policy=rocksdb.BuiltinBloomFilter`.
  Opening from such an options file will enable reading filters (an
  improvement) but not writing new ones. (See Customizable follow-up
  below.)
* Also removed deprecated functions
  * FilterBitsBuilder::CalculateNumEntry()
  * FilterPolicy::GetFilterBitsBuilder()
  * NewExperimentalRibbonFilterPolicy()
* Remove default implementations of
  * FilterBitsBuilder::EstimateEntriesAdded()
  * FilterBitsBuilder::ApproximateNumEntries()
  * FilterPolicy::GetBuilderWithContext()
* Remove support for "filter_policy=experimental_ribbon" configuration
string.
* Allow "filter_policy=bloomfilter:n" without bool to discourage use of
block-based filter.

Some pieces for https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/9389

Likely follow-up (later PRs):
* Refactoring toward FilterPolicy Customizable, so that we can generate
filters with same configuration as before when configuring from options
file.
* Remove support for user enabling block-based filter (ignore `bool
use_block_based_builder`)
  * Some months after this change, we could even remove read support for
  block-based filter, because it is not critical to DB data
  preservation.
* Make FilterBitsBuilder::FinishV2 to avoid `using
FilterBitsBuilder::Finish` mess and add support for specifying a
MemoryAllocator (for cache warming)

mrambacher 8948dc8524 Make ImmutableOptions struct that inherits from ImmutableCFOptions and ImmutableDBOptions (#8262)
Summary:
The ImmutableCFOptions contained a bunch of fields that belonged to the ImmutableDBOptions.  This change cleans that up by introducing an ImmutableOptions struct.  Following the pattern of Options struct, this class inherits from the DB and CFOption structs (of the Immutable form).

Only one structural change (the ImmutableCFOptions::fs was changed to a shared_ptr from a raw one) is in this PR.  All of the other changes involve moving the member variables from the ImmutableCFOptions into the ImmutableOptions and changing member variables or function parameters as required for compilation purposes.

Follow-on PRs may do a further clean-up of the code, such as renaming variables (such as "ImmutableOptions cf_options") and potentially eliminating un-needed function parameters (there is no longer a need to pass both an ImmutableDBOptions and an ImmutableOptions to a function).

Summary:
Renaming ImmutableCFOptions::info_log and statistics to logger and stats.  This is stage 2 in creating an ImmutableOptions class.  It is necessary because the names match those in ImmutableOptions and have different types.

Peter Dillinger 14eca6bf04 For ApproximateSizes, pro-rate table metadata size over data blocks (#6784)
Summary:
The implementation of GetApproximateSizes was inconsistent in
its treatment of the size of non-data blocks of SST files, sometimes
including and sometimes now. This was at its worst with large portion
of table file used by filters and querying a small range that crossed
a table boundary: the size estimate would include large filter size.

It's conceivable that someone might want only to know the size in terms
of data blocks, but I believe that's unlikely enough to ignore for now.
Similarly, there's no evidence the internal function AppoximateOffsetOf
is used for anything other than a one-sided ApproximateSize, so I intend
to refactor to remove redundancy in a follow-up commit.

So to fix this, GetApproximateSizes (and implementation details
ApproximateSize and ApproximateOffsetOf) now consistently include in
their returned sizes a portion of table file metadata (incl filters
and indexes) based on the size portion of the data blocks in range. In
other words, if a key range covers data blocks that are X% by size of all
the table's data blocks, returned approximate size is X% of the total
file size. It would technically be more accurate to attribute metadata
based on number of keys, but that's not computationally efficient with
data available and rarely a meaningful difference.

Also includes miscellaneous comment improvements / clarifications.

Also included is a new approximatesizerandom benchmark for db_bench.
No significant performance difference seen with this change, whether ~700 ops/sec with cache_index_and_filter_blocks and small cache or ~150k ops/sec without cache_index_and_filter_blocks.

Test Plan:
Test added to DBTest.ApproximateSizesFilesWithErrorMargin.
Old code running new test...

    db/db_test.cc:1562: Failure
    Expected: (size) <= (11 * 100), actual: 9478 vs 1100

Other tests updated to reflect consistent accounting of metadata.

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 46ca51d430 filter_bench - a prelim tool for SST filter benchmarking (#5825)
Summary:
Example: using the tool before and after PR https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/5784 shows that
the refactoring, presumed performance-neutral, actually sped up SST
filters by about 3% to 8% (repeatable result):

Before:
-  Dry run ns/op: 22.4725
-  Single filter ns/op: 51.1078
-  Random filter ns/op: 120.133

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
partitioned filters - same implementation; not block-based filters),
which seems to be the recommended format/implementation.
