Peter Dillinger 7a1b0207e6 format_version=6 and context-aware block checksums (#9058)
Summary:
## Context checksum
All RocksDB checksums currently use 32 bits of checking
power, which should be 1 in 4 billion false negative (FN) probability (failing to
detect corruption). This is true for random corruptions, and in some cases
small corruptions are guaranteed to be detected. But some possible
corruptions, such as in storage metadata rather than storage payload data,
would have a much higher FN rate. For example:
* Data larger than one SST block is replaced by data from elsewhere in
the same or another SST file. Especially with block_align=true, the
probability of exact block size match is probably around 1 in 100, making
the FN probability around that same. Without `block_align=true` the
probability of same block start location is probably around 1 in 10,000,
for FN probability around 1 in a million.

To solve this problem in new format_version=6, we add "context awareness"
to block checksum checks. The stored and expected checksum value is
modified based on the block's position in the file and which file it is in. The
modifications are cleverly chosen so that, for example
* blocks within about 4GB of each other are guaranteed to use different context
* blocks that are offset by exactly some multiple of 4GiB are guaranteed to use
different context
* files generated by the same process are guaranteed to use different context
for the same offsets, until wrap-around after 2^32 - 1 files

Thus, with format_version=6, if a valid SST block and checksum is misplaced,
its checksum FN probability should be essentially ideal, 1 in 4B.

## Footer checksum
This change also adds checksum protection to the SST footer (with
format_version=6), for the first time without relying on whole file checksum.
To prevent a corruption of the format_version in the footer (e.g. 6 -> 5) to
defeat the footer checksum, we change much of the footer data format
including an "extended magic number" in format_version 6 that would be
interpreted as empty index and metaindex block handles in older footer
versions. We also change the encoding of handles to free up space for
other new data in footer.

## More detail: making space in footer
In order to keep footer the same size in format_version=6 (avoid change to IO
patterns), we have to free up some space for new data. We do this two ways:
* Metaindex block handle is encoded down to 4 bytes (from 10) by assuming
it immediately precedes the footer, and by assuming it is < 4GB.
* Index block handle is moved into metaindex. (I don't know why it was
in footer to begin with.)

## Performance
In case of small performance penalty, I've made a "pay as you go" optimization
to compensate: replace `MutableCFOptions` in BlockBasedTableBuilder::Rep
with the only field used in that structure after construction: `prefix_extractor`.
This makes the PR an overall performance improvement (results below).

Nevertheless I'm seeing essentially no difference going from fv=5 to fv=6,
even including that improvement for both. That's based on extreme case table
write performance testing, many files with many blocks. This is relatively
checksum intensive (small blocks) and salt generation intensive (small files).

```
(for I in `seq 1 100`; do TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm/dbbench2 ./db_bench -benchmarks=fillseq -memtablerep=vector -disable_wal=1 -allow_concurrent_memtable_write=false -num=3000000 -compaction_style=2 -fifo_compaction_max_table_files_size_mb=10000 -fifo_compaction_allow_compaction=0 -write_buffer_size=100000 -compression_type=none -block_size=1000; done) 2>&1 | grep micros/op | tee out
awk '{ tot += $5; n += 1; } END { print int(1.0 * tot / n) }' < out
```

configuration for load fairness

Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/9058

Test Plan:
unit tests included (table_test, db_properties_test, salt in env_test). General DB tests
and crash test updated to test new format_version.

Also temporarily updated the default format version to 6 and saw some test failures. Almost all
were due to an inadvertent additional read in VerifyChecksum to verify the index block checksum,
though it's arguably a bug that VerifyChecksum does not appear to (re-)verify the index block
checksum, just assuming it was verified in opening the index reader (probably *usually* true but
probably not always true). Some other concerns about VerifyChecksum are left in FIXME
comments. The only remaining test failure on change of default (in block_fetcher_test) now
has a comment about how to upgrade the test.

The format compatibility test does not need updating because we have not updated the default
format_version.

Peter Dillinger 230660be73 Improve / clean up meta block code & integrity (#9163)
Summary:
* Checksums are now checked on meta blocks unless specifically
suppressed or not applicable (e.g. plain table). (Was other way around.)
This means a number of cases that were not checking checksums now are,
including direct read TableProperties in Version::GetTableProperties
(fixed in meta_blocks ReadTableProperties), reading any block from
PersistentCache (fixed in BlockFetcher), read TableProperties in
SstFileDumper (ldb/sst_dump/BackupEngine) before table reader open,
maybe more.
* For that to work, I moved the global_seqno+TableProperties checksum
logic to the shared table/ code, because that is used by many utilies
such as SstFileDumper.
* Also for that to work, we have to know when we're dealing with a block
that has a checksum (trailer), so added that capability to Footer based
on magic number, and from there BlockFetcher.
* Knowledge of trailer presence has also fixed a problem where other
table formats were reading blocks including bytes for a non-existant
trailer--and awkwardly kind-of not using them, e.g. no shared code
checking checksums. (BlockFetcher compression type was populated
incorrectly.) Now we only read what is needed.
* Minimized code duplication and differing/incompatible/awkward
abstractions in meta_blocks.{cc,h} (e.g. SeekTo in metaindex block
without parsing block handle)
* Moved some meta block handling code from table_properties*.*
* Moved some code specific to block-based table from shared table/ code
to BlockBasedTable class. The checksum stuff means we can't completely
separate it, but things that don't need to be in shared table/ code
should not be.
* Use unique_ptr rather than raw ptr in more places. (Note: you can
std::move from unique_ptr to shared_ptr.)

Without enhancements to GetPropertiesOfAllTablesTest (see below),
net reduction of roughly 100 lines of code.

Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/9163

Test Plan:
existing tests and
* Enhanced DBTablePropertiesTest.GetPropertiesOfAllTablesTest to verify that
checksums are now checked on direct read of table properties by TableCache
(new test would fail before this change)
* Also enhanced DBTablePropertiesTest.GetPropertiesOfAllTablesTest to test
putting table properties under old meta name
* Also generally enhanced that same test to actually test what it was
supposed to be testing already, by kicking things out of table cache when
we don't want them there.

Peter Dillinger dfedc74d82 Some checksum code refactoring (#9113)
Summary:
To prepare for adding checksum to footer and "context aware"
checksums. This also brings closely related code much closer together.

Recently added `BlockBasedTableBuilder::ComputeBlockTrailer` for testing
is made obsolete in the refactoring, as testing the checksums can happen
at a lower level of abstraction.

Also now checking for unrecognized checksum type on reading footer,
rather than later on use.

Also removed an obsolete function delcaration.

Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/9113

Test Plan:
existing tests worked before refactoring to remove
`ComputeBlockTrailer`. And then refactored+improved tests using it.

Peter Dillinger a7d4bea43a Implement XXH3 block checksum type (#9069)
Summary:
XXH3 - latest hash function that is extremely fast on large
data, easily faster than crc32c on most any x86_64 hardware. In
integrating this hash function, I have handled the compression type byte
in a non-standard way to avoid using the streaming API (extra data
movement and active code size because of hash function complexity). This
approach got a thumbs-up from Yann Collet.

Existing functionality change:
* reject bad ChecksumType in options with InvalidArgument

This change split off from https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/9058 because context-aware checksum is
likely to be handled through different configuration than ChecksumType.

Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/9069

Test Plan:
tests updated, and substantially expanded. Unit tests now check
that we don't accidentally change the values generated by the checksum
algorithms ("schema test") and that we properly handle
invalid/unrecognized checksum types in options or in file footer.

DBTestBase::ChangeOptions (etc.) updated from two to one configuration
changing from default CRC32c ChecksumType. The point of this test code
is to detect possible interactions among features, and the likelihood of
some bad interaction being detected by including configurations other
than XXH3 and CRC32c--and then not detected by stress/crash test--is
extremely low.

Stress/crash test also updated (manual run long enough to see it accepts
new checksum type). db_bench also updated for microbenchmarking
checksums.

Peter Dillinger 25a0d0ca30 Fix block checksum for >=4GB, refactor (#6978)
Summary:
Although RocksDB falls over in various other ways with KVs
around 4GB or more, this change fixes how XXH32 and XXH64 were being
called by the block checksum code to support >= 4GB in case that should
ever happen, or the code copied for other uses.

This change is not a schema compatibility issue because the checksum
verification code would checksum the first (block_size + 1) mod 2^32
bytes while the checksum construction code would checksum the first
block_size mod 2^32 plus the compression type byte, meaning the
XXH32/64 checksums for >=4GB block would not match about 255/256 times.

While touching this code, I refactored to consolidate redundant
implementations, improving diagnostics and performance tracking in some
cases. Also used less confusing language in those diagnostics.

Makes https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/6875 obsolete.
Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/6978

Test Plan:
I was able to write a test for this using an SST file writer
and VerifyChecksum in a reader. The test fails before the fix, though
I'm leaving the test disabled because I don't think it's worth the
expense of running regularly.
