Summary:
This patch defines the format of RocksDB options file, which
follows the INI file format, and implements functions for its
serialization and deserialization. An example RocksDB options
file can be found in examples/rocksdb_option_file_example.ini.
A typical RocksDB options file has three sections, which are
Version, DBOptions, and more than one CFOptions. The RocksDB
options file in general follows the basic INI file format
with the following extensions / modifications:
* Escaped characters
We escaped the following characters:
- \n -- line feed - new line
- \r -- carriage return
- \\ -- backslash \
- \: -- colon symbol :
- \# -- hash tag #
* Comments
We support # style comments. Comments can appear at the ending
part of a line.
* Statements
A statement is of the form option_name = value.
Each statement contains a '=', where extra white-spaces
are supported. However, we don't support multi-lined statement.
Furthermore, each line can only contain at most one statement.
* Section
Sections are of the form [SecitonTitle "SectionArgument"],
where section argument is optional.
* List
We use colon-separated string to represent a list.
For instance, n1:n2:n3:n4 is a list containing four values.
Below is an example of a RocksDB options file:
[Version]
rocksdb_version=4.0.0
options_file_version=1.0
[DBOptions]
max_open_files=12345
max_background_flushes=301
[CFOptions "default"]
[CFOptions "the second column family"]
[CFOptions "the third column family"]
Test Plan: Added many tests in options_test.cc

RocksDB: A Persistent Key-Value Store for Flash and RAM Storage
RocksDB is developed and maintained by Facebook Database Engineering Team. It is built on earlier work on LevelDB by Sanjay Ghemawat (sanjay@google.com) and Jeff Dean (jeff@google.com)
This code is a library that forms the core building block for a fast key value server, especially suited for storing data on flash drives. It has a Log-Structured-Merge-Database (LSM) design with flexible tradeoffs between Write-Amplification-Factor (WAF), Read-Amplification-Factor (RAF) and Space-Amplification-Factor (SAF). It has multi-threaded compactions, making it specially suitable for storing multiple terabytes of data in a single database.
Start with example usage here: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/tree/master/examples
See the github wiki for more explanation.
The public interface is in include/. Callers should not include or
rely on the details of any other header files in this package. Those
internal APIs may be changed without warning.
Design discussions are conducted in https://www.facebook.com/groups/rocksdb.dev/
