Write performance will be mostly unaffected by whether or not the

LevelDB compacts its underlying storage data in the background to
improve read performance. The results listed above were done
immediately after a lot of random writes. The results after
compactions (which are usually triggered automatically) are better.
readrandom : 11.602 micros/op; (approximately 85,000 reads per second)

readreverse : 0.663 micros/op; 166.9 MB/s
Some of the high cost of reads comes from repeated decompression of blocks
read from disk. If we supply enough cache to the leveldb so it can hold the
uncompressed blocks in memory, the read performance improves again:
readrandom : 9.775 micros/op; (approximately 100,000 reads per second before compaction)
readrandom : 5.215 micros/op; (approximately 190,000 reads per second after compaction)

<h1>Files</h1>
The implementation of leveldb is similar in spirit to the
representation of a single
<a href="http://research.google.com/archive/bigtable.html">
Bigtable tablet (section 5.3)</a>.
However the organization of the files that make up the representation
is somewhat different and is explained below.
<p>
Each database is represented by a set of files stored in a directory.
There are several different types of files as documented below:
<p>
<h2>Log files</h2>
<p>
A log file (*.log) stores a sequence of recent updates. Each update
is appended to the current log file. When the log file reaches a
pre-determined size (approximately 4MB by default), it is converted
to a sorted table (see below) and a new log file is created for future
updates.
<p>
A copy of the current log file is kept in an in-memory structure (the
<code>memtable</code>). This copy is consulted on every read so that read
operations reflect all logged updates.
<p>
<h2>Sorted tables</h2>
<p>
A sorted table (*.sst) stores a sequence of entries sorted by key.
Each entry is either a value for the key, or a deletion marker for the
key. (Deletion markers are kept around to hide obsolete values
present in older sorted tables).
<p>
The set of sorted tables are organized into a sequence of levels. The
sorted table generated from a log file is placed in a special <code>young</code>
level (also called level-0). When the number of young files exceeds a
certain threshold (currently four), all of the young files are merged
together with all of the overlapping level-1 files to produce a
sequence of new level-1 files (we create a new level-1 file for every
2MB of data.)
<p>
Files in the young level may contain overlapping keys. However files
in other levels have distinct non-overlapping key ranges. Consider
level number L where L >= 1. When the combined size of files in
level-L exceeds (10^L) MB (i.e., 10MB for level-1, 100MB for level-2,
...), one file in level-L, and all of the overlapping files in
level-(L+1) are merged to form a set of new files for level-(L+1).
These merges have the effect of gradually migrating new updates from
the young level to the largest level using only bulk reads and writes
(i.e., minimizing expensive seeks).
<h2>Manifest</h2>
<p>
A MANIFEST file lists the set of sorted tables that make up each
level, the corresponding key ranges, and other important metadata.
A new MANIFEST file (with a new number embedded in the file name)
is created whenever the database is reopened. The MANIFEST file is
formatted as a log, and changes made to the serving state (as files
are added or removed) are appended to this log.
<p>
<h2>Current</h2>
<p>
CURRENT is a simple text file that contains the name of the latest
MANIFEST file.
<p>
<h2>Info logs</h2>
<p>
Informational messages are printed to files named LOG and LOG.old.
<p>
<h2>Others</h2>
<p>
Other files used for miscellaneous purposes may also be present
(LOCK, *.dbtmp).
<h1>Level 0</h1>
When the log file grows above a certain size (1MB by default):
<ul>
<li>Create a brand new memtable and log file and direct future updates here
<li>In the background:
<ul>
<li>Write the contents of the previous memtable to an sstable
<li>Discard the memtable
<li>Delete the old log file and the old memtable
<li>Add the new sstable to the young (level-0) level.
</ul>
</ul>
<h1>Compactions</h1>
<p>
When the size of level L exceeds its limit, we compact it in a
background thread. The compaction picks a file from level L and all
overlapping files from the next level L+1. Note that if a level-L
file overlaps only part of a level-(L+1) file, the entire file at
level-(L+1) is used as an input to the compaction and will be
discarded after the compaction. Aside: because level-0 is special
(files in it may overlap each other), we treat compactions from
level-0 to level-1 specially: a level-0 compaction may pick more than
one level-0 file in case some of these files overlap each other.
<p>
A compaction merges the contents of the picked files to produce a
sequence of level-(L+1) files. We switch to producing a new
level-(L+1) file after the current output file has reached the target
file size (2MB). We also switch to a new output file when the key
range of the current output file has grown enough to overlap more than
ten level-(L+2) files. This last rule ensures that a later compaction
of a level-(L+1) file will not pick up too much data from level-(L+2).
<p>
The old files are discarded and the new files are added to the serving
state.
<p>
Compactions for a particular level rotate through the key space. In
more detail, for each level L, we remember the ending key of the last
compaction at level L. The next compaction for level L will pick the
first file that starts after this key (wrapping around to the
beginning of the key space if there is no such file).
<p>
Compactions drop overwritten values. They also drop deletion markers
if there are no higher numbered levels that contain a file whose range
overlaps the current key.
<h2>Timing</h2>
Level-0 compactions will read up to four 1MB files from level-0, and
at worst all the level-1 files (10MB). I.e., we will read 14MB and
write 14MB.
<p>
Other than the special level-0 compactions, we will pick one 2MB file
from level L. In the worst case, this will overlap ~ 12 files from
level L+1 (10 because level-(L+1) is ten times the size of level-L,
and another two at the boundaries since the file ranges at level-L
will usually not be aligned with the file ranges at level-L+1). The
compaction will therefore read 26MB and write 26MB. Assuming a disk
IO rate of 100MB/s (ballpark range for modern drives), the worst
compaction cost will be approximately 0.5 second.
<p>
If we throttle the background writing to something small, say 10% of
the full 100MB/s speed, a compaction may take up to 5 seconds. If the
user is writing at 10MB/s, we might build up lots of level-0 files
(~50 to hold the 5*10MB). This may significantly increase the cost of
reads due to the overhead of merging more files together on every
read.
<p>
Solution 1: To reduce this problem, we might want to increase the log
switching threshold when the number of level-0 files is large. Though
the downside is that the larger this threshold, the more memory we will
need to hold the corresponding memtable.
<p>
Solution 2: We might want to decrease write rate artificially when the
number of level-0 files goes up.
<p>
Solution 3: We work on reducing the cost of very wide merges.
Perhaps most of the level-0 files will have their blocks sitting
uncompressed in the cache and we will only need to worry about the
O(N) complexity in the merging iterator.
<h2>Number of files</h2>
Instead of always making 2MB files, we could make larger files for
larger levels to reduce the total file count, though at the expense of
more bursty compactions. Alternatively, we could shard the set of
files into multiple directories.
<p>
An experiment on an <code>ext3</code> filesystem on Feb 04, 2011 shows
the following timings to do 100K file opens in directories with
varying number of files:
<table class="datatable">
<tr><th>Files in directory</th><th>Microseconds to open a file</th></tr>
<tr><td>1000</td><td>9</td>
<tr><td>10000</td><td>10</td>
<tr><td>100000</td><td>16</td>
</table>
So maybe even the sharding is not necessary on modern filesystems?
<h1>Recovery</h1>
<ul>
<li> Read CURRENT to find name of the latest committed MANIFEST
<li> Read the named MANIFEST file
<li> Clean up stale files
<li> We could open all sstables here, but it is probably better to be lazy...
<li> Convert log chunk to a new level-0 sstable
<li> Start directing new writes to a new log file with recovered sequence#
</ul>
<h1>Garbage collection of files</h1>
<code>DeleteObsoleteFiles()</code> is called at the end of every
compaction and at the end of recovery. It finds the names of all
files in the database. It deletes all log files that are not the
current log file. It deletes all table files that are not referenced
from some level and are not the output of an active compaction.

## Files
The implementation of leveldb is similar in spirit to the representation of a
single [Bigtable tablet (section 5.3)](http://research.google.com/archive/bigtable.html).
However the organization of the files that make up the representation is
somewhat different and is explained below.
Each database is represented by a set of files stored in a directory. There are
several different types of files as documented below:
### Log files
A log file (*.log) stores a sequence of recent updates. Each update is appended
to the current log file. When the log file reaches a pre-determined size
(approximately 4MB by default), it is converted to a sorted table (see below)
and a new log file is created for future updates.
A copy of the current log file is kept in an in-memory structure (the
`memtable`). This copy is consulted on every read so that read operations
reflect all logged updates.
## Sorted tables
A sorted table (*.ldb) stores a sequence of entries sorted by key. Each entry is
either a value for the key, or a deletion marker for the key. (Deletion markers
are kept around to hide obsolete values present in older sorted tables).
The set of sorted tables are organized into a sequence of levels. The sorted
table generated from a log file is placed in a special **young** level (also
called level-0). When the number of young files exceeds a certain threshold
(currently four), all of the young files are merged together with all of the
overlapping level-1 files to produce a sequence of new level-1 files (we create
a new level-1 file for every 2MB of data.)
Files in the young level may contain overlapping keys. However files in other
levels have distinct non-overlapping key ranges. Consider level number L where
L >= 1. When the combined size of files in level-L exceeds (10^L) MB (i.e., 10MB
for level-1, 100MB for level-2, ...), one file in level-L, and all of the
overlapping files in level-(L+1) are merged to form a set of new files for
level-(L+1). These merges have the effect of gradually migrating new updates
from the young level to the largest level using only bulk reads and writes
(i.e., minimizing expensive seeks).
### Manifest
A MANIFEST file lists the set of sorted tables that make up each level, the
corresponding key ranges, and other important metadata. A new MANIFEST file
(with a new number embedded in the file name) is created whenever the database
is reopened. The MANIFEST file is formatted as a log, and changes made to the
serving state (as files are added or removed) are appended to this log.
### Current
CURRENT is a simple text file that contains the name of the latest MANIFEST
file.
### Info logs
Informational messages are printed to files named LOG and LOG.old.
### Others
Other files used for miscellaneous purposes may also be present (LOCK, *.dbtmp).
## Level 0
When the log file grows above a certain size (1MB by default):
Create a brand new memtable and log file and direct future updates here
In the background:
Write the contents of the previous memtable to an sstable
Discard the memtable
Delete the old log file and the old memtable
Add the new sstable to the young (level-0) level.
## Compactions
When the size of level L exceeds its limit, we compact it in a background
thread. The compaction picks a file from level L and all overlapping files from
the next level L+1. Note that if a level-L file overlaps only part of a
level-(L+1) file, the entire file at level-(L+1) is used as an input to the
compaction and will be discarded after the compaction. Aside: because level-0
is special (files in it may overlap each other), we treat compactions from
level-0 to level-1 specially: a level-0 compaction may pick more than one
level-0 file in case some of these files overlap each other.
A compaction merges the contents of the picked files to produce a sequence of
level-(L+1) files. We switch to producing a new level-(L+1) file after the
current output file has reached the target file size (2MB). We also switch to a
new output file when the key range of the current output file has grown enough
to overlap more than ten level-(L+2) files. This last rule ensures that a later
compaction of a level-(L+1) file will not pick up too much data from
level-(L+2).
The old files are discarded and the new files are added to the serving state.
Compactions for a particular level rotate through the key space. In more detail,
for each level L, we remember the ending key of the last compaction at level L.
The next compaction for level L will pick the first file that starts after this
key (wrapping around to the beginning of the key space if there is no such
file).
Compactions drop overwritten values. They also drop deletion markers if there
are no higher numbered levels that contain a file whose range overlaps the
current key.
### Timing
Level-0 compactions will read up to four 1MB files from level-0, and at worst
all the level-1 files (10MB). I.e., we will read 14MB and write 14MB.
Other than the special level-0 compactions, we will pick one 2MB file from level
L. In the worst case, this will overlap ~ 12 files from level L+1 (10 because
level-(L+1) is ten times the size of level-L, and another two at the boundaries
since the file ranges at level-L will usually not be aligned with the file
ranges at level-L+1). The compaction will therefore read 26MB and write 26MB.
Assuming a disk IO rate of 100MB/s (ballpark range for modern drives), the worst
compaction cost will be approximately 0.5 second.
If we throttle the background writing to something small, say 10% of the full
100MB/s speed, a compaction may take up to 5 seconds. If the user is writing at
10MB/s, we might build up lots of level-0 files (~50 to hold the 5*10MB). This
may significantly increase the cost of reads due to the overhead of merging more
files together on every read.
Solution 1: To reduce this problem, we might want to increase the log switching
threshold when the number of level-0 files is large. Though the downside is that
the larger this threshold, the more memory we will need to hold the
corresponding memtable.
Solution 2: We might want to decrease write rate artificially when the number of
level-0 files goes up.
Solution 3: We work on reducing the cost of very wide merges. Perhaps most of
the level-0 files will have their blocks sitting uncompressed in the cache and
we will only need to worry about the O(N) complexity in the merging iterator.
### Number of files
Instead of always making 2MB files, we could make larger files for larger levels
to reduce the total file count, though at the expense of more bursty
compactions. Alternatively, we could shard the set of files into multiple
directories.
An experiment on an ext3 filesystem on Feb 04, 2011 shows the following timings
to do 100K file opens in directories with varying number of files:
| Files in directory | Microseconds to open a file |
|-------------------:|----------------------------:|
| 1000 | 9 |
| 10000 | 10 |
| 100000 | 16 |
So maybe even the sharding is not necessary on modern filesystems?
## Recovery
* Read CURRENT to find name of the latest committed MANIFEST
* Read the named MANIFEST file
* Clean up stale files
* We could open all sstables here, but it is probably better to be lazy...
* Convert log chunk to a new level-0 sstable
* Start directing new writes to a new log file with recovered sequence#
## Garbage collection of files
`DeleteObsoleteFiles()` is called at the end of every compaction and at the end
of recovery. It finds the names of all files in the database. It deletes all log
files that are not the current log file. It deletes all table files that are not
referenced from some level and are not the output of an active compaction.

<h1>Leveldb</h1>
<address>Jeff Dean, Sanjay Ghemawat</address>
<p>
The <code>leveldb</code> library provides a persistent key value store. Keys and
values are arbitrary byte arrays. The keys are ordered within the key
value store according to a user-specified comparator function.
<p>
<h1>Opening A Database</h1>
<p>
A <code>leveldb</code> database has a name which corresponds to a file system
directory. All of the contents of database are stored in this
directory. The following example shows how to open a database,
creating it if necessary:
<p>
<pre>
#include &lt;cassert&gt;
#include "leveldb/db.h"
leveldb::DB* db;
leveldb::Options options;
options.create_if_missing = true;
leveldb::Status status = leveldb::DB::Open(options, "/tmp/testdb", &amp;db);
assert(status.ok());
...
</pre>
If you want to raise an error if the database already exists, add
the following line before the <code>leveldb::DB::Open</code> call:
<pre>
options.error_if_exists = true;
</pre>
<h1>Status</h1>
<p>
You may have noticed the <code>leveldb::Status</code> type above. Values of this
type are returned by most functions in <code>leveldb</code> that may encounter an
error. You can check if such a result is ok, and also print an
associated error message:
<p>
<pre>
leveldb::Status s = ...;
if (!s.ok()) cerr &lt;&lt; s.ToString() &lt;&lt; endl;
</pre>
<h1>Closing A Database</h1>
<p>
When you are done with a database, just delete the database object.
Example:
<p>
<pre>
... open the db as described above ...
... do something with db ...
delete db;
</pre>
<h1>Reads And Writes</h1>
<p>
The database provides <code>Put</code>, <code>Delete</code>, and <code>Get</code> methods to
modify/query the database. For example, the following code
moves the value stored under key1 to key2.
<pre>
std::string value;
leveldb::Status s = db-&gt;Get(leveldb::ReadOptions(), key1, &amp;value);
if (s.ok()) s = db-&gt;Put(leveldb::WriteOptions(), key2, value);
if (s.ok()) s = db-&gt;Delete(leveldb::WriteOptions(), key1);
</pre>
<h1>Atomic Updates</h1>
<p>
Note that if the process dies after the Put of key2 but before the
delete of key1, the same value may be left stored under multiple keys.
Such problems can be avoided by using the <code>WriteBatch</code> class to
atomically apply a set of updates:
<p>
<pre>
#include "leveldb/write_batch.h"
...
std::string value;
leveldb::Status s = db-&gt;Get(leveldb::ReadOptions(), key1, &amp;value);
if (s.ok()) {
leveldb::WriteBatch batch;
batch.Delete(key1);
batch.Put(key2, value);
s = db-&gt;Write(leveldb::WriteOptions(), &amp;batch);
}
</pre>
The <code>WriteBatch</code> holds a sequence of edits to be made to the database,
and these edits within the batch are applied in order. Note that we
called <code>Delete</code> before <code>Put</code> so that if <code>key1</code> is identical to <code>key2</code>,
we do not end up erroneously dropping the value entirely.
<p>
Apart from its atomicity benefits, <code>WriteBatch</code> may also be used to
speed up bulk updates by placing lots of individual mutations into the
same batch.
<h1>Synchronous Writes</h1>
By default, each write to <code>leveldb</code> is asynchronous: it
returns after pushing the write from the process into the operating
system. The transfer from operating system memory to the underlying
persistent storage happens asynchronously. The <code>sync</code> flag
can be turned on for a particular write to make the write operation
not return until the data being written has been pushed all the way to
persistent storage. (On Posix systems, this is implemented by calling
either <code>fsync(...)</code> or <code>fdatasync(...)</code> or
<code>msync(..., MS_SYNC)</code> before the write operation returns.)
<pre>
leveldb::WriteOptions write_options;
write_options.sync = true;
db-&gt;Put(write_options, ...);
</pre>
Asynchronous writes are often more than a thousand times as fast as
synchronous writes. The downside of asynchronous writes is that a
crash of the machine may cause the last few updates to be lost. Note
that a crash of just the writing process (i.e., not a reboot) will not
cause any loss since even when <code>sync</code> is false, an update
is pushed from the process memory into the operating system before it
is considered done.
<p>
Asynchronous writes can often be used safely. For example, when
loading a large amount of data into the database you can handle lost
updates by restarting the bulk load after a crash. A hybrid scheme is
also possible where every Nth write is synchronous, and in the event
of a crash, the bulk load is restarted just after the last synchronous
write finished by the previous run. (The synchronous write can update
a marker that describes where to restart on a crash.)
<p>
<code>WriteBatch</code> provides an alternative to asynchronous writes.
Multiple updates may be placed in the same <code>WriteBatch</code> and
applied together using a synchronous write (i.e.,
<code>write_options.sync</code> is set to true). The extra cost of
the synchronous write will be amortized across all of the writes in
the batch.
<p>
<h1>Concurrency</h1>
<p>
A database may only be opened by one process at a time.
The <code>leveldb</code> implementation acquires a lock from the
operating system to prevent misuse. Within a single process, the
same <code>leveldb::DB</code> object may be safely shared by multiple
concurrent threads. I.e., different threads may write into or fetch
iterators or call <code>Get</code> on the same database without any
external synchronization (the leveldb implementation will
automatically do the required synchronization). However other objects
(like Iterator and WriteBatch) may require external synchronization.
If two threads share such an object, they must protect access to it
using their own locking protocol. More details are available in
the public header files.
<p>
<h1>Iteration</h1>
<p>
The following example demonstrates how to print all key,value pairs
in a database.
<p>
<pre>
leveldb::Iterator* it = db-&gt;NewIterator(leveldb::ReadOptions());
for (it-&gt;SeekToFirst(); it-&gt;Valid(); it-&gt;Next()) {
cout &lt;&lt; it-&gt;key().ToString() &lt;&lt; ": " &lt;&lt; it-&gt;value().ToString() &lt;&lt; endl;
}
assert(it-&gt;status().ok()); // Check for any errors found during the scan
delete it;
</pre>
The following variation shows how to process just the keys in the
range <code>[start,limit)</code>:
<p>
<pre>
for (it-&gt;Seek(start);
it-&gt;Valid() &amp;&amp; it-&gt;key().ToString() &lt; limit;
it-&gt;Next()) {
...
}
</pre>
You can also process entries in reverse order. (Caveat: reverse
iteration may be somewhat slower than forward iteration.)
<p>
<pre>
for (it-&gt;SeekToLast(); it-&gt;Valid(); it-&gt;Prev()) {
...
}
</pre>
<h1>Snapshots</h1>
<p>
Snapshots provide consistent read-only views over the entire state of
the key-value store. <code>ReadOptions::snapshot</code> may be non-NULL to indicate
that a read should operate on a particular version of the DB state.
If <code>ReadOptions::snapshot</code> is NULL, the read will operate on an
implicit snapshot of the current state.
<p>
Snapshots are created by the DB::GetSnapshot() method:
<p>
<pre>
leveldb::ReadOptions options;
options.snapshot = db-&gt;GetSnapshot();
... apply some updates to db ...
leveldb::Iterator* iter = db-&gt;NewIterator(options);
... read using iter to view the state when the snapshot was created ...
delete iter;
db-&gt;ReleaseSnapshot(options.snapshot);
</pre>
Note that when a snapshot is no longer needed, it should be released
using the DB::ReleaseSnapshot interface. This allows the
implementation to get rid of state that was being maintained just to
support reading as of that snapshot.
<h1>Slice</h1>
<p>
The return value of the <code>it->key()</code> and <code>it->value()</code> calls above
are instances of the <code>leveldb::Slice</code> type. <code>Slice</code> is a simple
structure that contains a length and a pointer to an external byte
array. Returning a <code>Slice</code> is a cheaper alternative to returning a
<code>std::string</code> since we do not need to copy potentially large keys and
values. In addition, <code>leveldb</code> methods do not return null-terminated
C-style strings since <code>leveldb</code> keys and values are allowed to
contain '\0' bytes.
<p>
C++ strings and null-terminated C-style strings can be easily converted
to a Slice:
<p>
<pre>
leveldb::Slice s1 = "hello";
std::string str("world");
leveldb::Slice s2 = str;
</pre>
A Slice can be easily converted back to a C++ string:
<pre>
std::string str = s1.ToString();
assert(str == std::string("hello"));
</pre>
Be careful when using Slices since it is up to the caller to ensure that
the external byte array into which the Slice points remains live while
the Slice is in use. For example, the following is buggy:
<p>
<pre>
leveldb::Slice slice;
if (...) {
std::string str = ...;
slice = str;
}
Use(slice);
</pre>
When the <code>if</code> statement goes out of scope, <code>str</code> will be destroyed and the
backing storage for <code>slice</code> will disappear.
<p>
<h1>Comparators</h1>
<p>
The preceding examples used the default ordering function for key,
which orders bytes lexicographically. You can however supply a custom
comparator when opening a database. For example, suppose each
database key consists of two numbers and we should sort by the first
number, breaking ties by the second number. First, define a proper
subclass of <code>leveldb::Comparator</code> that expresses these rules:
<p>
<pre>
class TwoPartComparator : public leveldb::Comparator {
public:
// Three-way comparison function:
// if a &lt; b: negative result
// if a &gt; b: positive result
// else: zero result
int Compare(const leveldb::Slice&amp; a, const leveldb::Slice&amp; b) const {
int a1, a2, b1, b2;
ParseKey(a, &amp;a1, &amp;a2);
ParseKey(b, &amp;b1, &amp;b2);
if (a1 &lt; b1) return -1;
if (a1 &gt; b1) return +1;
if (a2 &lt; b2) return -1;
if (a2 &gt; b2) return +1;
return 0;
}
// Ignore the following methods for now:
const char* Name() const { return "TwoPartComparator"; }
void FindShortestSeparator(std::string*, const leveldb::Slice&amp;) const { }
void FindShortSuccessor(std::string*) const { }
};
</pre>
Now create a database using this custom comparator:
<p>
<pre>
TwoPartComparator cmp;
leveldb::DB* db;
leveldb::Options options;
options.create_if_missing = true;
options.comparator = &amp;cmp;
leveldb::Status status = leveldb::DB::Open(options, "/tmp/testdb", &amp;db);
...
</pre>
<h2>Backwards compatibility</h2>
<p>
The result of the comparator's <code>Name</code> method is attached to the
database when it is created, and is checked on every subsequent
database open. If the name changes, the <code>leveldb::DB::Open</code> call will
fail. Therefore, change the name if and only if the new key format
and comparison function are incompatible with existing databases, and
it is ok to discard the contents of all existing databases.
<p>
You can however still gradually evolve your key format over time with
a little bit of pre-planning. For example, you could store a version
number at the end of each key (one byte should suffice for most uses).
When you wish to switch to a new key format (e.g., adding an optional
third part to the keys processed by <code>TwoPartComparator</code>),
(a) keep the same comparator name (b) increment the version number
for new keys (c) change the comparator function so it uses the
version numbers found in the keys to decide how to interpret them.
<p>
<h1>Performance</h1>
<p>
Performance can be tuned by changing the default values of the
types defined in <code>include/leveldb/options.h</code>.
<p>
<h2>Block size</h2>
<p>
<code>leveldb</code> groups adjacent keys together into the same block and such a
block is the unit of transfer to and from persistent storage. The
default block size is approximately 4096 uncompressed bytes.
Applications that mostly do bulk scans over the contents of the
database may wish to increase this size. Applications that do a lot
of point reads of small values may wish to switch to a smaller block
size if performance measurements indicate an improvement. There isn't
much benefit in using blocks smaller than one kilobyte, or larger than
a few megabytes. Also note that compression will be more effective
with larger block sizes.
<p>
<h2>Compression</h2>
<p>
Each block is individually compressed before being written to
persistent storage. Compression is on by default since the default
compression method is very fast, and is automatically disabled for
uncompressible data. In rare cases, applications may want to disable
compression entirely, but should only do so if benchmarks show a
performance improvement:
<p>
<pre>
leveldb::Options options;
options.compression = leveldb::kNoCompression;
... leveldb::DB::Open(options, name, ...) ....
</pre>
<h2>Cache</h2>
<p>
The contents of the database are stored in a set of files in the
filesystem and each file stores a sequence of compressed blocks. If
<code>options.cache</code> is non-NULL, it is used to cache frequently used
uncompressed block contents.
<p>
<pre>
#include "leveldb/cache.h"
leveldb::Options options;
options.cache = leveldb::NewLRUCache(100 * 1048576); // 100MB cache
leveldb::DB* db;
leveldb::DB::Open(options, name, &db);
... use the db ...
delete db
delete options.cache;
</pre>
Note that the cache holds uncompressed data, and therefore it should
be sized according to application level data sizes, without any
reduction from compression. (Caching of compressed blocks is left to
the operating system buffer cache, or any custom <code>Env</code>
implementation provided by the client.)
<p>
When performing a bulk read, the application may wish to disable
caching so that the data processed by the bulk read does not end up
displacing most of the cached contents. A per-iterator option can be
used to achieve this:
<p>
<pre>
leveldb::ReadOptions options;
options.fill_cache = false;
leveldb::Iterator* it = db-&gt;NewIterator(options);
for (it-&gt;SeekToFirst(); it-&gt;Valid(); it-&gt;Next()) {
...
}
</pre>
<h2>Key Layout</h2>
<p>
Note that the unit of disk transfer and caching is a block. Adjacent
keys (according to the database sort order) will usually be placed in
the same block. Therefore the application can improve its performance
by placing keys that are accessed together near each other and placing
infrequently used keys in a separate region of the key space.
<p>
For example, suppose we are implementing a simple file system on top
of <code>leveldb</code>. The types of entries we might wish to store are:
<p>
<pre>
filename -&gt; permission-bits, length, list of file_block_ids
file_block_id -&gt; data
</pre>
We might want to prefix <code>filename</code> keys with one letter (say '/') and the
<code>file_block_id</code> keys with a different letter (say '0') so that scans
over just the metadata do not force us to fetch and cache bulky file
contents.
<p>
<h2>Filters</h2>
<p>
Because of the way <code>leveldb</code> data is organized on disk,
a single <code>Get()</code> call may involve multiple reads from disk.
The optional <code>FilterPolicy</code> mechanism can be used to reduce
the number of disk reads substantially.
<pre>
leveldb::Options options;
options.filter_policy = NewBloomFilterPolicy(10);
leveldb::DB* db;
leveldb::DB::Open(options, "/tmp/testdb", &amp;db);
... use the database ...
delete db;
delete options.filter_policy;
</pre>
The preceding code associates a
<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bloom_filter">Bloom filter</a>
based filtering policy with the database. Bloom filter based
filtering relies on keeping some number of bits of data in memory per
key (in this case 10 bits per key since that is the argument we passed
to NewBloomFilterPolicy). This filter will reduce the number of unnecessary
disk reads needed for <code>Get()</code> calls by a factor of
approximately a 100. Increasing the bits per key will lead to a
larger reduction at the cost of more memory usage. We recommend that
applications whose working set does not fit in memory and that do a
lot of random reads set a filter policy.
<p>
If you are using a custom comparator, you should ensure that the filter
policy you are using is compatible with your comparator. For example,
consider a comparator that ignores trailing spaces when comparing keys.
<code>NewBloomFilterPolicy</code> must not be used with such a comparator.
Instead, the application should provide a custom filter policy that
also ignores trailing spaces. For example:
<pre>
class CustomFilterPolicy : public leveldb::FilterPolicy {
private:
FilterPolicy* builtin_policy_;
public:
CustomFilterPolicy() : builtin_policy_(NewBloomFilterPolicy(10)) { }
~CustomFilterPolicy() { delete builtin_policy_; }
const char* Name() const { return "IgnoreTrailingSpacesFilter"; }
void CreateFilter(const Slice* keys, int n, std::string* dst) const {
// Use builtin bloom filter code after removing trailing spaces
std::vector&lt;Slice&gt; trimmed(n);
for (int i = 0; i &lt; n; i++) {
trimmed[i] = RemoveTrailingSpaces(keys[i]);
}
return builtin_policy_-&gt;CreateFilter(&amp;trimmed[i], n, dst);
}
bool KeyMayMatch(const Slice& key, const Slice& filter) const {
// Use builtin bloom filter code after removing trailing spaces
return builtin_policy_-&gt;KeyMayMatch(RemoveTrailingSpaces(key), filter);
}
};
</pre>
<p>
Advanced applications may provide a filter policy that does not use
a bloom filter but uses some other mechanism for summarizing a set
of keys. See <code>leveldb/filter_policy.h</code> for detail.
<p>
<h1>Checksums</h1>
<p>
<code>leveldb</code> associates checksums with all data it stores in the file system.
There are two separate controls provided over how aggressively these
checksums are verified:
<p>
<ul>
<li> <code>ReadOptions::verify_checksums</code> may be set to true to force
checksum verification of all data that is read from the file system on
behalf of a particular read. By default, no such verification is
done.
<p>
<li> <code>Options::paranoid_checks</code> may be set to true before opening a
database to make the database implementation raise an error as soon as
it detects an internal corruption. Depending on which portion of the
database has been corrupted, the error may be raised when the database
is opened, or later by another database operation. By default,
paranoid checking is off so that the database can be used even if
parts of its persistent storage have been corrupted.
<p>
If a database is corrupted (perhaps it cannot be opened when
paranoid checking is turned on), the <code>leveldb::RepairDB</code> function
may be used to recover as much of the data as possible
<p>
</ul>
<h1>Approximate Sizes</h1>
<p>
The <code>GetApproximateSizes</code> method can used to get the approximate
number of bytes of file system space used by one or more key ranges.
<p>
<pre>
leveldb::Range ranges[2];
ranges[0] = leveldb::Range("a", "c");
ranges[1] = leveldb::Range("x", "z");
uint64_t sizes[2];
leveldb::Status s = db-&gt;GetApproximateSizes(ranges, 2, sizes);
</pre>
The preceding call will set <code>sizes[0]</code> to the approximate number of
bytes of file system space used by the key range <code>[a..c)</code> and
<code>sizes[1]</code> to the approximate number of bytes used by the key range
<code>[x..z)</code>.
<p>
<h1>Environment</h1>
<p>
All file operations (and other operating system calls) issued by the
<code>leveldb</code> implementation are routed through a <code>leveldb::Env</code> object.
Sophisticated clients may wish to provide their own <code>Env</code>
implementation to get better control. For example, an application may
introduce artificial delays in the file IO paths to limit the impact
of <code>leveldb</code> on other activities in the system.
<p>
<pre>
class SlowEnv : public leveldb::Env {
.. implementation of the Env interface ...
};
SlowEnv env;
leveldb::Options options;
options.env = &amp;env;
Status s = leveldb::DB::Open(options, ...);
</pre>
<h1>Porting</h1>
<p>
<code>leveldb</code> may be ported to a new platform by providing platform
specific implementations of the types/methods/functions exported by
<code>leveldb/port/port.h</code>. See <code>leveldb/port/port_example.h</code> for more
details.
<p>
In addition, the new platform may need a new default <code>leveldb::Env</code>
implementation. See <code>leveldb/util/env_posix.h</code> for an example.
<h1>Other Information</h1>

leveldb
=======
_Jeff Dean, Sanjay Ghemawat_
The leveldb library provides a persistent key value store. Keys and values are
arbitrary byte arrays. The keys are ordered within the key value store
according to a user-specified comparator function.
## Opening A Database
A leveldb database has a name which corresponds to a file system directory. All
of the contents of database are stored in this directory. The following example
shows how to open a database, creating it if necessary:
```c++
#include <cassert>
#include "leveldb/db.h"
leveldb::DB* db;
leveldb::Options options;
options.create_if_missing = true;
leveldb::Status status = leveldb::DB::Open(options, "/tmp/testdb", &db);
assert(status.ok());
...
```
If you want to raise an error if the database already exists, add the following
line before the `leveldb::DB::Open` call:
```c++
options.error_if_exists = true;
```
## Status
You may have noticed the `leveldb::Status` type above. Values of this type are
returned by most functions in leveldb that may encounter an error. You can check
if such a result is ok, and also print an associated error message:
```c++
leveldb::Status s = ...;
if (!s.ok()) cerr << s.ToString() << endl;
```
## Closing A Database
When you are done with a database, just delete the database object. Example:
```c++
... open the db as described above ...
... do something with db ...
delete db;
```
## Reads And Writes
The database provides Put, Delete, and Get methods to modify/query the database.
For example, the following code moves the value stored under key1 to key2.
```c++
std::string value;
leveldb::Status s = db->Get(leveldb::ReadOptions(), key1, &value);
if (s.ok()) s = db->Put(leveldb::WriteOptions(), key2, value);
if (s.ok()) s = db->Delete(leveldb::WriteOptions(), key1);
```
## Atomic Updates
Note that if the process dies after the Put of key2 but before the delete of
key1, the same value may be left stored under multiple keys. Such problems can
be avoided by using the `WriteBatch` class to atomically apply a set of updates:
```c++
#include "leveldb/write_batch.h"
...
std::string value;
leveldb::Status s = db->Get(leveldb::ReadOptions(), key1, &value);
if (s.ok()) {
leveldb::WriteBatch batch;
batch.Delete(key1);
batch.Put(key2, value);
s = db->Write(leveldb::WriteOptions(), &batch);
}
```
The `WriteBatch` holds a sequence of edits to be made to the database, and these
edits within the batch are applied in order. Note that we called Delete before
Put so that if key1 is identical to key2, we do not end up erroneously dropping
the value entirely.
Apart from its atomicity benefits, `WriteBatch` may also be used to speed up
bulk updates by placing lots of individual mutations into the same batch.
## Synchronous Writes
By default, each write to leveldb is asynchronous: it returns after pushing the
write from the process into the operating system. The transfer from operating
system memory to the underlying persistent storage happens asynchronously. The
sync flag can be turned on for a particular write to make the write operation
not return until the data being written has been pushed all the way to
persistent storage. (On Posix systems, this is implemented by calling either
`fsync(...)` or `fdatasync(...)` or `msync(..., MS_SYNC)` before the write
operation returns.)
```c++
leveldb::WriteOptions write_options;
write_options.sync = true;
db->Put(write_options, ...);
```
Asynchronous writes are often more than a thousand times as fast as synchronous
writes. The downside of asynchronous writes is that a crash of the machine may
cause the last few updates to be lost. Note that a crash of just the writing
process (i.e., not a reboot) will not cause any loss since even when sync is
false, an update is pushed from the process memory into the operating system
before it is considered done.
Asynchronous writes can often be used safely. For example, when loading a large
amount of data into the database you can handle lost updates by restarting the
bulk load after a crash. A hybrid scheme is also possible where every Nth write
is synchronous, and in the event of a crash, the bulk load is restarted just
after the last synchronous write finished by the previous run. (The synchronous
write can update a marker that describes where to restart on a crash.)
`WriteBatch` provides an alternative to asynchronous writes. Multiple updates
may be placed in the same WriteBatch and applied together using a synchronous
write (i.e., `write_options.sync` is set to true). The extra cost of the
synchronous write will be amortized across all of the writes in the batch.
## Concurrency
A database may only be opened by one process at a time. The leveldb
implementation acquires a lock from the operating system to prevent misuse.
Within a single process, the same `leveldb::DB` object may be safely shared by
multiple concurrent threads. I.e., different threads may write into or fetch
iterators or call Get on the same database without any external synchronization
(the leveldb implementation will automatically do the required synchronization).
However other objects (like Iterator and `WriteBatch`) may require external
synchronization. If two threads share such an object, they must protect access
to it using their own locking protocol. More details are available in the public
header files.
## Iteration
The following example demonstrates how to print all key,value pairs in a
database.
```c++
leveldb::Iterator* it = db->NewIterator(leveldb::ReadOptions());
for (it->SeekToFirst(); it->Valid(); it->Next()) {
cout << it->key().ToString() << ": " << it->value().ToString() << endl;
}
assert(it->status().ok()); // Check for any errors found during the scan
delete it;
```
The following variation shows how to process just the keys in the range
[start,limit):
```c++
for (it->Seek(start);
it->Valid() && it->key().ToString() < limit;
it->Next()) {
...
}
```
You can also process entries in reverse order. (Caveat: reverse iteration may be
somewhat slower than forward iteration.)
```c++
for (it->SeekToLast(); it->Valid(); it->Prev()) {
...
}
```
## Snapshots
Snapshots provide consistent read-only views over the entire state of the
key-value store. `ReadOptions::snapshot` may be non-NULL to indicate that a
read should operate on a particular version of the DB state. If
`ReadOptions::snapshot` is NULL, the read will operate on an implicit snapshot
of the current state.
Snapshots are created by the `DB::GetSnapshot()` method:
```c++
leveldb::ReadOptions options;
options.snapshot = db->GetSnapshot();
... apply some updates to db ...
leveldb::Iterator* iter = db->NewIterator(options);
... read using iter to view the state when the snapshot was created ...
delete iter;
db->ReleaseSnapshot(options.snapshot);
```
Note that when a snapshot is no longer needed, it should be released using the
`DB::ReleaseSnapshot` interface. This allows the implementation to get rid of
state that was being maintained just to support reading as of that snapshot.
## Slice
The return value of the `it->key()` and `it->value()` calls above are instances
of the `leveldb::Slice` type. Slice is a simple structure that contains a length
and a pointer to an external byte array. Returning a Slice is a cheaper
alternative to returning a `std::string` since we do not need to copy
potentially large keys and values. In addition, leveldb methods do not return
null-terminated C-style strings since leveldb keys and values are allowed to
contain `'\0'` bytes.
C++ strings and null-terminated C-style strings can be easily converted to a
Slice:
```c++
leveldb::Slice s1 = "hello";
std::string str("world");
leveldb::Slice s2 = str;
```
A Slice can be easily converted back to a C++ string:
```c++
std::string str = s1.ToString();
assert(str == std::string("hello"));
```
Be careful when using Slices since it is up to the caller to ensure that the
external byte array into which the Slice points remains live while the Slice is
in use. For example, the following is buggy:
```c++
leveldb::Slice slice;
if (...) {
std::string str = ...;
slice = str;
}
Use(slice);
```
When the if statement goes out of scope, str will be destroyed and the backing
storage for slice will disappear.
## Comparators
The preceding examples used the default ordering function for key, which orders
bytes lexicographically. You can however supply a custom comparator when opening
a database. For example, suppose each database key consists of two numbers and
we should sort by the first number, breaking ties by the second number. First,
define a proper subclass of `leveldb::Comparator` that expresses these rules:
```c++
class TwoPartComparator : public leveldb::Comparator {
public:
// Three-way comparison function:
// if a < b: negative result
// if a > b: positive result
// else: zero result
int Compare(const leveldb::Slice& a, const leveldb::Slice& b) const {
int a1, a2, b1, b2;
ParseKey(a, &a1, &a2);
ParseKey(b, &b1, &b2);

if (a1 > b1) return +1;
if (a2 < b2) return -1;

return 0;
}
// Ignore the following methods for now:
const char* Name() const { return "TwoPartComparator"; }
void FindShortestSeparator(std::string*, const leveldb::Slice&) const {}
void FindShortSuccessor(std::string*) const {}
};
```
Now create a database using this custom comparator:
```c++
TwoPartComparator cmp;
leveldb::DB* db;
leveldb::Options options;
options.create_if_missing = true;
options.comparator = &cmp;
leveldb::Status status = leveldb::DB::Open(options, "/tmp/testdb", &db);
...
```
### Backwards compatibility
The result of the comparator's Name method is attached to the database when it
is created, and is checked on every subsequent database open. If the name
changes, the `leveldb::DB::Open` call will fail. Therefore, change the name if
and only if the new key format and comparison function are incompatible with
existing databases, and it is ok to discard the contents of all existing
databases.
You can however still gradually evolve your key format over time with a little
bit of pre-planning. For example, you could store a version number at the end of
each key (one byte should suffice for most uses). When you wish to switch to a
new key format (e.g., adding an optional third part to the keys processed by
`TwoPartComparator`), (a) keep the same comparator name (b) increment the
version number for new keys (c) change the comparator function so it uses the
version numbers found in the keys to decide how to interpret them.
## Performance
Performance can be tuned by changing the default values of the types defined in
`include/leveldb/options.h`.
### Block size
leveldb groups adjacent keys together into the same block and such a block is
the unit of transfer to and from persistent storage. The default block size is
approximately 4096 uncompressed bytes. Applications that mostly do bulk scans
over the contents of the database may wish to increase this size. Applications
that do a lot of point reads of small values may wish to switch to a smaller
block size if performance measurements indicate an improvement. There isn't much
benefit in using blocks smaller than one kilobyte, or larger than a few
megabytes. Also note that compression will be more effective with larger block
sizes.
### Compression
Each block is individually compressed before being written to persistent
storage. Compression is on by default since the default compression method is
very fast, and is automatically disabled for uncompressible data. In rare cases,
applications may want to disable compression entirely, but should only do so if
benchmarks show a performance improvement:
```c++
leveldb::Options options;
options.compression = leveldb::kNoCompression;
... leveldb::DB::Open(options, name, ...) ....
```
### Cache
The contents of the database are stored in a set of files in the filesystem and
each file stores a sequence of compressed blocks. If options.cache is non-NULL,
it is used to cache frequently used uncompressed block contents.
```c++
#include "leveldb/cache.h"
leveldb::Options options;
options.cache = leveldb::NewLRUCache(100 * 1048576); // 100MB cache
leveldb::DB* db;
leveldb::DB::Open(options, name, &db);
... use the db ...
delete db
delete options.cache;
```
Note that the cache holds uncompressed data, and therefore it should be sized
according to application level data sizes, without any reduction from
compression. (Caching of compressed blocks is left to the operating system
buffer cache, or any custom Env implementation provided by the client.)
When performing a bulk read, the application may wish to disable caching so that
the data processed by the bulk read does not end up displacing most of the
cached contents. A per-iterator option can be used to achieve this:
```c++
leveldb::ReadOptions options;
options.fill_cache = false;
leveldb::Iterator* it = db->NewIterator(options);
for (it->SeekToFirst(); it->Valid(); it->Next()) {
...
}
```
### Key Layout
Note that the unit of disk transfer and caching is a block. Adjacent keys
(according to the database sort order) will usually be placed in the same block.
Therefore the application can improve its performance by placing keys that are
accessed together near each other and placing infrequently used keys in a
separate region of the key space.
For example, suppose we are implementing a simple file system on top of leveldb.
The types of entries we might wish to store are:
filename -> permission-bits, length, list of file_block_ids
file_block_id -> data
We might want to prefix filename keys with one letter (say '/') and the
`file_block_id` keys with a different letter (say '0') so that scans over just
the metadata do not force us to fetch and cache bulky file contents.
### Filters
Because of the way leveldb data is organized on disk, a single `Get()` call may
involve multiple reads from disk. The optional FilterPolicy mechanism can be
used to reduce the number of disk reads substantially.
```c++
leveldb::Options options;
options.filter_policy = NewBloomFilterPolicy(10);
leveldb::DB* db;
leveldb::DB::Open(options, "/tmp/testdb", &db);
... use the database ...
delete db;
delete options.filter_policy;
```
The preceding code associates a Bloom filter based filtering policy with the
database. Bloom filter based filtering relies on keeping some number of bits of
data in memory per key (in this case 10 bits per key since that is the argument
we passed to `NewBloomFilterPolicy`). This filter will reduce the number of
unnecessary disk reads needed for Get() calls by a factor of approximately
a 100. Increasing the bits per key will lead to a larger reduction at the cost
of more memory usage. We recommend that applications whose working set does not
fit in memory and that do a lot of random reads set a filter policy.
If you are using a custom comparator, you should ensure that the filter policy
you are using is compatible with your comparator. For example, consider a
comparator that ignores trailing spaces when comparing keys.
`NewBloomFilterPolicy` must not be used with such a comparator. Instead, the
application should provide a custom filter policy that also ignores trailing
spaces. For example:
```c++
class CustomFilterPolicy : public leveldb::FilterPolicy {
private:
FilterPolicy* builtin_policy_;
public:
CustomFilterPolicy() : builtin_policy_(NewBloomFilterPolicy(10)) {}
~CustomFilterPolicy() { delete builtin_policy_; }
const char* Name() const { return "IgnoreTrailingSpacesFilter"; }
void CreateFilter(const Slice* keys, int n, std::string* dst) const {
// Use builtin bloom filter code after removing trailing spaces
std::vector<Slice> trimmed(n);
for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) {
trimmed[i] = RemoveTrailingSpaces(keys[i]);
}
return builtin_policy_->CreateFilter(&trimmed[i], n, dst);
}
};
```
Advanced applications may provide a filter policy that does not use a bloom
filter but uses some other mechanism for summarizing a set of keys. See
`leveldb/filter_policy.h` for detail.
## Checksums
leveldb associates checksums with all data it stores in the file system. There
are two separate controls provided over how aggressively these checksums are
verified:
`ReadOptions::verify_checksums` may be set to true to force checksum
verification of all data that is read from the file system on behalf of a
particular read. By default, no such verification is done.
`Options::paranoid_checks` may be set to true before opening a database to make
the database implementation raise an error as soon as it detects an internal
corruption. Depending on which portion of the database has been corrupted, the
error may be raised when the database is opened, or later by another database
operation. By default, paranoid checking is off so that the database can be used
even if parts of its persistent storage have been corrupted.
If a database is corrupted (perhaps it cannot be opened when paranoid checking
is turned on), the `leveldb::RepairDB` function may be used to recover as much
of the data as possible
## Approximate Sizes
The `GetApproximateSizes` method can used to get the approximate number of bytes
of file system space used by one or more key ranges.
```c++
leveldb::Range ranges[2];
ranges[0] = leveldb::Range("a", "c");
ranges[1] = leveldb::Range("x", "z");
uint64_t sizes[2];
leveldb::Status s = db->GetApproximateSizes(ranges, 2, sizes);
```
The preceding call will set `sizes[0]` to the approximate number of bytes of
file system space used by the key range `[a..c)` and `sizes[1]` to the
approximate number of bytes used by the key range `[x..z)`.
## Environment
All file operations (and other operating system calls) issued by the leveldb
implementation are routed through a `leveldb::Env` object. Sophisticated clients
may wish to provide their own Env implementation to get better control.
For example, an application may introduce artificial delays in the file IO
paths to limit the impact of leveldb on other activities in the system.
```c++
class SlowEnv : public leveldb::Env {
... implementation of the Env interface ...
};
SlowEnv env;
leveldb::Options options;
options.env = &env;
Status s = leveldb::DB::Open(options, ...);
```
## Porting
leveldb may be ported to a new platform by providing platform specific
implementations of the types/methods/functions exported by
`leveldb/port/port.h`. See `leveldb/port/port_example.h` for more details.
In addition, the new platform may need a new default `leveldb::Env`
implementation. See `leveldb/util/env_posix.h` for an example.
## Other Information
Details about the leveldb implementation may be found in the following
documents:
1. [Implementation notes](impl.md)
2. [Format of an immutable Table file](table_format.md)
3. [Format of a log file](log_format.md)

leveldb Log format
==================
The log file contents are a sequence of 32KB blocks. The only exception is that
the tail of the file may contain a partial block.
Each block consists of a sequence of records:
block := record* trailer?
record :=
checksum: uint32 // crc32c of type and data[] ; little-endian
length: uint16 // little-endian
type: uint8 // One of FULL, FIRST, MIDDLE, LAST
data: uint8[length]
A record never starts within the last six bytes of a block (since it won't fit).
Any leftover bytes here form the trailer, which must consist entirely of zero
bytes and must be skipped by readers.
Aside: if exactly seven bytes are left in the current block, and a new non-zero
length record is added, the writer must emit a FIRST record (which contains zero
bytes of user data) to fill up the trailing seven bytes of the block and then
emit all of the user data in subsequent blocks.
More types may be added in the future. Some Readers may skip record types they
do not understand, others may report that some data was skipped.
FULL == 1
FIRST == 2
MIDDLE == 3
LAST == 4
The FULL record contains the contents of an entire user record.
FIRST, MIDDLE, LAST are types used for user records that have been split into
multiple fragments (typically because of block boundaries). FIRST is the type
of the first fragment of a user record, LAST is the type of the last fragment of
a user record, and MIDDLE is the type of all interior fragments of a user
record.
Example: consider a sequence of user records:
A: length 1000
B: length 97270
C: length 8000
**A** will be stored as a FULL record in the first block.
**B** will be split into three fragments: first fragment occupies the rest of
the first block, second fragment occupies the entirety of the second block, and
the third fragment occupies a prefix of the third block. This will leave six
bytes free in the third block, which will be left empty as the trailer.
**C** will be stored as a FULL record in the fourth block.
----
## Some benefits over the recordio format:
1. We do not need any heuristics for resyncing - just go to next block boundary
and scan. If there is a corruption, skip to the next block. As a
side-benefit, we do not get confused when part of the contents of one log
file are embedded as a record inside another log file.
2. Splitting at approximate boundaries (e.g., for mapreduce) is simple: find the
next block boundary and skip records until we hit a FULL or FIRST record.
3. We do not need extra buffering for large records.
## Some downsides compared to recordio format:
1. No packing of tiny records. This could be fixed by adding a new record type,
so it is a shortcoming of the current implementation, not necessarily the
format.
2. No compression. Again, this could be fixed by adding new record types.

leveldb File format
===================
<beginning_of_file>
[data block 1]

[meta block 1]
...
[meta block K]
[metaindex block]
[index block]
[Footer] (fixed size; starts at file_size - sizeof(Footer))
<end_of_file>
The file contains internal pointers. Each such pointer is called
a BlockHandle and contains the following information:
offset: varint64
size: varint64
See [varints](https://developers.google.com/protocol-buffers/docs/encoding#varints)
for an explanation of varint64 format.
1. The sequence of key/value pairs in the file are stored in sorted
order and partitioned into a sequence of data blocks. These blocks
come one after another at the beginning of the file. Each data block
is formatted according to the code in `block_builder.cc`, and then
optionally compressed.
2. After the data blocks we store a bunch of meta blocks. The
supported meta block types are described below. More meta block types
may be added in the future. Each meta block is again formatted using
`block_builder.cc` and then optionally compressed.
3. A "metaindex" block. It contains one entry for every other meta
block where the key is the name of the meta block and the value is a
BlockHandle pointing to that meta block.
4. An "index" block. This block contains one entry per data block,
where the key is a string >= last key in that data block and before
the first key in the successive data block. The value is the
BlockHandle for the data block.
5. At the very end of the file is a fixed length footer that contains
the BlockHandle of the metaindex and index blocks as well as a magic number.
metaindex_handle: char[p]; // Block handle for metaindex
index_handle: char[q]; // Block handle for index
padding: char[40-p-q];// zeroed bytes to make fixed length
// (40==2*BlockHandle::kMaxEncodedLength)
magic: fixed64; // == 0xdb4775248b80fb57 (little-endian)
## "filter" Meta Block
If a `FilterPolicy` was specified when the database was opened, a
filter block is stored in each table. The "metaindex" block contains
an entry that maps from `filter.<N>` to the BlockHandle for the filter
block where `<N>` is the string returned by the filter policy's
`Name()` method.
The filter block stores a sequence of filters, where filter i contains
the output of `FilterPolicy::CreateFilter()` on all keys that are stored
in a block whose file offset falls within the range
[ i*base ... (i+1)*base-1 ]
Currently, "base" is 2KB. So for example, if blocks X and Y start in
the range `[ 0KB .. 2KB-1 ]`, all of the keys in X and Y will be
converted to a filter by calling `FilterPolicy::CreateFilter()`, and the
resulting filter will be stored as the first filter in the filter
block.
The filter block is formatted as follows:
[filter 0]
[filter 1]
[filter 2]
...
[filter N-1]
[offset of filter 0] : 4 bytes
[offset of filter 1] : 4 bytes
[offset of filter 2] : 4 bytes
...
[offset of filter N-1] : 4 bytes
[offset of beginning of offset array] : 4 bytes
lg(base) : 1 byte
The offset array at the end of the filter block allows efficient
mapping from a data block offset to the corresponding filter.
## "stats" Meta Block
This meta block contains a bunch of stats. The key is the name
of the statistic. The value contains the statistic.
TODO(postrelease): record following stats.

"filter" Meta Block
-------------------
If a "FilterPolicy" was specified when the database was opened, a
filter block is stored in each table. The "metaindex" block contains
an entry that maps from "filter.<N>" to the BlockHandle for the filter
block where "<N>" is the string returned by the filter policy's
"Name()" method.
The filter block stores a sequence of filters, where filter i contains
the output of FilterPolicy::CreateFilter() on all keys that are stored
in a block whose file offset falls within the range
[ i*base ... (i+1)*base-1 ]
Currently, "base" is 2KB. So for example, if blocks X and Y start in
the range [ 0KB .. 2KB-1 ], all of the keys in X and Y will be
converted to a filter by calling FilterPolicy::CreateFilter(), and the
resulting filter will be stored as the first filter in the filter
block.
The filter block is formatted as follows:
[filter 0]
[filter 1]
[filter 2]
...
[filter N-1]
[offset of filter 0] : 4 bytes
[offset of filter 1] : 4 bytes
[offset of filter 2] : 4 bytes
...
[offset of filter N-1] : 4 bytes
[offset of beginning of offset array] : 4 bytes
lg(base) : 1 byte
The offset array at the end of the filter block allows efficient
mapping from a data block offset to the corresponding filter.

This meta block contains a bunch of stats. The key is the name
