9.7.4 (10/31/2024)

Bug Fixes

• Fix a leak of obsolete blob files left open until DB::Close(). This bug was introduced in version 9.4.0.

9.7.3 (10/16/2024)

Behavior Changes

• OPTIONS file to be loaded by remote worker is now preserved so that it does not get purged by the primary host. A similar technique as how we are preserving new SST files from getting purged is used for this. min_options_file_numbers_ is tracked like pending_outputs_ is tracked.

9.7.2 (10/08/2024)

Bug Fixes

• Fix a bug for surfacing write unix time: Iterator::GetProperty("rocksdb.iterator.write-time") for non-L0 files.

9.7.1 (09/26/2024)

Bug Fixes

• Several DB option settings could be lost through GetOptionsFromString(), possibly elsewhere as well. Affected options, now fixed:background_close_inactive_wals, write_dbid_to_manifest, write_identity_file, prefix_seek_opt_in_only
• Fix under counting of allocated memory in the compressed secondary cache due to looking at the compressed block size rather than the actual memory allocated, which could be larger due to internal fragmentation.
• Skip insertion of compressed blocks in the secondary cache if the lowest_used_cache_tier DB option is kVolatileTier.

9.7.0 (09/20/2024)

New Features

• Make Cache a customizable class that can be instantiated by the object registry.
• Add new option prefix_seek_opt_in_only that makes iterators generally safer when you might set a prefix_extractor. When prefix_seek_opt_in_only=true, which is expected to be the future default, prefix seek is only used when prefix_same_as_start or auto_prefix_mode are set. Also, prefix_same_as_start and auto_prefix_mode now allow prefix filtering even with total_order_seek=true.
• Add a new table property "rocksdb.key.largest.seqno" which records the largest sequence number of all keys in file. It is verified to be zero during SST file ingestion.

Behavior Changes

• Changed the semantics of the BlobDB configuration option blob_garbage_collection_force_threshold to define
  a threshold for the overall garbage ratio of all blob files currently eligible for garbage collection (accordin
  g to blob_garbage_collection_age_cutoff). This can provide better control over space amplification at the cos
  t of slightly higher write amplification.
• Set write_dbid_to_manifest=true by default. This means DB ID will now be preserved through backups, checkpo
  ints, etc. by default. Also add write_identity_file option which can be set to false for anticipated future b
  ehavior.
• In FIFO compaction, compactions for changing file temperature (configured by option file_temperature_age_thr esholds) will compact one file at a time, instead of merging multiple eligible file together (#13018).
• Support ingesting db generated files using hard link, i.e. IngestExternalFileOptions::move_files/link_files a
  nd IngestExternalFileOptions::allow_db_generated_files.
• Add a new file ingestion option IngestExternalFileOptions::link_files to hard link input files and preserve
  original files links after ingestion.
• DB::Close now untracks files in SstFileManager, making avaialble any space used
  by them. Prior to this change they would be orphaned until the DB is re-opened.

Bug Fixes

• Fix a bug in CompactRange() where result files may not be compacted in any future compaction. This can only h
  appen when users configure CompactRangeOptions::change_level to true and the change level step of manual compac
  tion fails (#13009).
• Fix handling of dynamic change of prefix_extractor with memtable prefix filter. Previously, prefix seek cou
  ld mix different prefix interpretations between memtable and SST files. Now the latest prefix_extractor at th
  e time of iterator creation or refresh is respected.
• Fix a bug with manual_wal_flush and auto error recovery from WAL failure that may cause CFs to be inconsisten
  t (#12995). The fix will set potential WAL write failure as fatal error when manual_wal_flush is true, and disa
  bles auto error recovery from these errors.

9.6.2 (10/31/2024)

Bug Fixes

• Fix a leak of obsolete blob files left open until DB::Close(). This bug was introduced in version 9.4.0.

9.6.1 (08/24/2024)

Bug Fixes

• Fix correctness of MultiGet across column families with user timestamp.

9.6.0 (08/19/2024)

New Features

• *Best efforts recovery supports recovering to incomplete Version with a clean seqno cut that presents a valid point in time view from the user's perspective, if versioning history doesn't include atomic flush.
• New option BlockBasedTableOptions::decouple_partitioned_filters should improve efficiency in serving read queries because filter and index partitions can consistently target the configured metadata_block_size. This option is currently opt-in.
• Introduce a new mutable CF option paranoid_memory_checks. It enables additional validation on data integrity during reads/scanning. Currently, skip list based memtable will validate key ordering during look up and scans.

Public API Changes

• Add ticker stats to count file read retries due to checksum mismatch
• Adds optional installation callback function for remote compaction

Behavior Changes

• There may be less intra-L0 compaction triggered by total L0 size being too small. We now use compensated file size (tombstones are assigned some value size) when calculating L0 size and reduce the threshold for L0 size limit. This is to avoid accumulating too much data/tombstones in L0.

Bug Fixes

• *Make DestroyDB supports slow deletion when it's configured in SstFileManager. The slow deletion is subject to the configured rate_bytes_per_sec, but not subject to the max_trash_db_ratio.
• Fixed a bug where we set unprep_seqs_ even when WriteImpl() fails. This was caught by stress test write fault injection in WriteImpl(). This may have incorrectly caused iteration creation failure for unvalidated writes or returned wrong result for WriteUnpreparedTxn::GetUnpreparedSequenceNumbers().
• Fixed a bug where successful write right after error recovery for last failed write finishes causes duplicate WAL entries
• Fixed a data race involving the background error status in unordered_write mode.
• *Fix a bug where file snapshot functions like backup, checkpoint may attempt to copy a non-existing manifest
  file. #12882
• Fix a bug where per kv checksum corruption may be ignored in MultiGet().
• Fix a race condition in pessimistic transactions that could allow multiple transactions with the same name to
  be registered simultaneously, resulting in a crash or other unpredictable behavior.

9.7.3 (10/16/2024)

Behavior Changes

• OPTIONS file to be loaded by remote worker is now preserved so that it does not get purged by the primary host. A similar technique as how we are preserving new SST files from getting purged is used for this. min_options_file_numbers_ is tracked like pending_outputs_ is tracked.

9.7.2 (10/08/2024)

Bug Fixes

• Fix a bug for surfacing write unix time: Iterator::GetProperty("rocksdb.iterator.write-time") for non-L0 files.

9.7.1 (09/26/2024)

Bug Fixes

• Several DB option settings could be lost through GetOptionsFromString(), possibly elsewhere as well. Affected options, now fixed:background_close_inactive_wals, write_dbid_to_manifest, write_identity_file, prefix_seek_opt_in_only
• Fix under counting of allocated memory in the compressed secondary cache due to looking at the compressed block size rather than the actual memory allocated, which could be larger due to internal fragmentation.
• Skip insertion of compressed blocks in the secondary cache if the lowest_used_cache_tier DB option is kVolatileTier.

9.7.0 (09/20/2024)

New Features

• Make Cache a customizable class that can be instantiated by the object registry.
• Add new option prefix_seek_opt_in_only that makes iterators generally safer when you might set a prefix_extractor. When prefix_seek_opt_in_only=true, which is expected to be the future default, prefix seek is only used when prefix_same_as_start or auto_prefix_mode are set. Also, prefix_same_as_start and auto_prefix_mode now allow prefix filtering even with total_order_seek=true.
• Add a new table property "rocksdb.key.largest.seqno" which records the largest sequence number of all keys in file. It is verified to be zero during SST file ingestion.

Behavior Changes

• Changed the semantics of the BlobDB configuration option blob_garbage_collection_force_threshold to define a threshold for the overall garbage ratio of all blob files currently eligible for garbage collection (according to blob_garbage_collection_age_cutoff). This can provide better control over space amplification at the cost of slightly higher write amplification.
• Set write_dbid_to_manifest=true by default. This means DB ID will now be preserved through backups, checkpoints, etc. by default. Also add write_identity_file option which can be set to false for anticipated future behavior.
• In FIFO compaction, compactions for changing file temperature (configured by option file_temperature_age_thresholds) will compact one file at a time, instead of merging multiple eligible file together (#13018).
• Support ingesting db generated files using hard link, i.e. IngestExternalFileOptions::move_files/link_files and IngestExternalFileOptions::allow_db_generated_files.

9.6.1 (2024-08-24)

Bug Fixes

• Fix correctness of MultiGet across column families with user timestamp.

9.6.0 (2024-08-19)

New Features

9.5.2 (2024-08-13)

Bug Fixes

• Fix a race condition in pessimistic transactions that could allow multiple transactions with the same name to be registered simultaneously, resulting in a crash or other unpredictable behavior.

Public API Changes

• Add ticker stats to count file read retries due to checksum mismatch

9.5.1 (2024-08-02)

Bug Fixes

• *Make DestroyDB supports slow deletion when it's configured in SstFileManager. The slow deletion is subject to the configured rate_bytes_per_sec, but not subject to the max_trash_db_ratio.

9.5.0 (2024-07-19)

Public API Changes

• Introduced new C API function rocksdb_writebatch_iterate_cf for column family-aware iteration over the contents of a WriteBatch
• Add support to ingest SST files generated by a DB instead of SstFileWriter. This can be enabled with experimental option IngestExternalFileOptions::allow_db_generated_files.

Behavior Changes

• When calculating total log size for the log_size_for_flush argument in CreateCheckpoint API, the size of the archived log will not be included to avoid unnecessary flush

Bug Fixes

• Fix a major bug in which an iterator using prefix filtering and SeekForPrev might miss data when the DB is using whole_key_filtering=false and partition_filters=true.
• Fixed a bug where OnErrorRecoveryBegin() is not called before auto recovery starts.
• Fixed a bug where event listener reads ErrorHandler's bg_error_ member without holding db mutex(#12803).
• Fixed a bug in handling MANIFEST write error that caused the latest valid MANIFEST file to get deleted, resulting in the DB being unopenable.
• Fixed a race between error recovery due to manifest sync or write failure and external SST file ingestion. Both attempt to write a new manifest file, which causes an assertion failure.

Performance Improvements

• Fix an issue where compactions were opening table files and reading table properties while holding db mutex_.
• Reduce unnecessary filesystem queries and DB mutex acquires in creating backups and checkpoints.

9.4.0 (2024-06-23)

New Features

• Added a CompactForTieringCollectorFactory to auto trigger compaction for tiering use case.
• Optimistic transactions and pessimistic transactions with the WriteCommitted policy now support the GetEntityForUpdate API.
• Added a new "count" command to the ldb repl shell. By default, it prints a count of keys in the database from start to end. The options --from= and/or --to= can be specified to limit the range.
• Add rocksdb_writebatch_update_timestamps, rocksdb_writebatch_wi_update_timestamps in C API.
• Add rocksdb_iter_refresh in C API.
• Add rocksdb_writebatch_create_with_params, rocksdb_writebatch_wi_create_with_params to create WB and WBWI with all options in C API

Public API Changes

• Deprecated names LogFile and VectorLogPtr in favor of new names WalFile and VectorWalPtr.
• Introduce a new universal compaction option CompactionOptionsUniversal::max_read_amp which allows user to define the limit on the number of sorted runs separately from the trigger for compaction (level0_file_num_compaction_trigger) #12477.

Behavior Changes

• Inactive WALs are immediately closed upon being fully sync-ed rather than in a background thread. This is to ensure LinkFile() is not called on files still open for write, which might not be supported by some FileSystem implementations. This should not be a performance issue, but an opt-out is available with with new DB option background_close_inactive_wals.

Bug Fixes

• Fix a rare case in which a hard-linked WAL in a Checkpoint is not fully synced (so might lose data on power loss).
• Fixed the output of the ldb dump_wal command for PutEntity records so it prints the key and correctly resets the hexadecimal formatting flag after printing the wide-column entity.
• Fixed an issue where PutEntity records were handled incorrectly while rebuilding transactions during recovery.
• Various read operations could ignore various ReadOptions that might be relevant. Fixed many such cases, which can result in behavior change but a better reflection of specified options.

Performance Improvements

• Improved write throughput to memtable when there's a large number of concurrent writers and allow_concurrent_memtable_write=true(#12545)

9.3.1 (2024-05-25)

Bug Fixes

• [internal only] Build script improvement

9.3.0 (2024-05-17)

New Features

• Optimistic transactions and pessimistic transactions with the WriteCommitted policy now support the GetEntity API.
• Added new Iterator property, "rocksdb.iterator.is-value-pinned", for checking whether the Slice returned by Iterator::value() can be used until the Iterator is destroyed.
• Optimistic transactions and WriteCommitted pessimistic transactions now support the MultiGetEntity API.
• Optimistic transactions and pessimistic transactions with the WriteCommitted policy now support the PutEntity API. Support for read APIs and other write policies (WritePrepared, WriteUnprepared) will be added later.

Public API Changes

• Exposed block based metadata cache options via C API
• Exposed compaction pri via c api.
• Add a kAdmPolicyAllowAll option to TieredAdmissionPolicy that admits all blocks evicted from the primary block cache into the compressed secondary cache.

Behavior Changes

• CompactRange() with change_level=true on a CF with FIFO compaction will return Status::NotSupported().
• External file ingestion with FIFO compaction will always ingest to L0.

Bug Fixes

• Fixed a bug for databases using DBOptions::allow_2pc == true (all TransactionDBs except OptimisticTransactionDB) that have exactly one column family. Due to a missing WAL sync, attempting to open the DB could have returned a Status::Corruption with a message like "SST file is ahead of WALs".
• Fix a bug in CreateColumnFamilyWithImport() where if multiple CFs are imported, we were not resetting files' epoch number and L0 files can have overlapping key range but the same epoch number.
• Fixed race conditions when ColumnFamilyOptions::inplace_update_support == true between user overwrites and reads on the same key.
• Fix a bug where CompactFiles() can compact files of range conflict with other ongoing compactions' when preclude_last_level_data_seconds > 0 is used
• Fixed a false positive Status::Corruption reported when reopening a DB that used DBOptions::recycle_log_file_num > 0 and DBOptions::wal_compression != kNoCompression.
• While WAL is locked with LockWAL(), some operations like Flush() and IngestExternalFile() are now blocked as they should have been.
• Fixed a bug causing stale memory access when using the TieredSecondaryCache with an NVM secondary cache, and a file system that supports return an FS allocated buffer for MultiRead (FSSupportedOps::kFSBuffer is set).

9.2.1 (2024-05-03)

Public API Changes

• Add a kAdmPolicyAllowAll option to TieredAdmissionPolicy that admits all blocks evicted from the primary block cache into the compressed secondary cache.

9.2.0 (2024-05-01)

New Features

• Added two options deadline and max_size_bytes for CacheDumper to exit early
• Added a new API GetEntityFromBatchAndDB to WriteBatchWithIndex that can be used for wide-column point lookups with read-your-own-writes consistency. Similarly to GetFromBatchAndDB, the API can combine data from the write batch with data from the underlying database if needed. See the API comments for more details.
• [Experimental] Introduce two new cross-column-family iterators - CoalescingIterator and AttributeGroupIterator. The CoalescingIterator enables users to iterate over multiple column families and access their values and columns. During this iteration, if the same key exists in more than one column family, the keys in the later column family will overshadow the previous ones. The AttributeGroupIterator allows users to gather wide columns per Column Family and create attribute groups while iterating over keys across all CFs.
• Added a new API MultiGetEntityFromBatchAndDB to WriteBatchWithIndex that can be used for batched wide-column point lookups with read-your-own-writes consistency. Similarly to MultiGetFromBatchAndDB, the API can combine data from the write batch with data from the underlying database if needed. See the API comments for more details.
• *Adds a SstFileReader::NewTableIterator API to support programmatically read a SST file as a raw table file.
• Add an option to WaitForCompactOptions - wait_for_purge to make WaitForCompact() API wait for background purge to complete

Public API Changes

• DeleteRange() will return NotSupported() if row_cache is configured since they don't work together in some cases.
• Deprecated CompactionOptions::compression since CompactionOptions's API for configuring compression was incomplete, unsafe, and likely unnecessary
• Using OptionChangeMigration() to migrate from non-FIFO to FIFO compaction
  with Options::compaction_options_fifo.max_table_files_size > 0 can cause
  the whole DB to be dropped right after migration if the migrated data is larger than
  max_table_files_size

Behavior Changes

• Enabling BlockBasedTableOptions::block_align is now incompatible (i.e., APIs will return Status::InvalidArgument) with more ways of enabling compression: CompactionOptions::compression, ColumnFamilyOptions::compression_per_level, and ColumnFamilyOptions::bottommost_compression.
• Changed the default value of CompactionOptions::compression to kDisableCompressionOption, which means the compression type is determined by the ColumnFamilyOptions.
• BlockBasedTableOptions::optimize_filters_for_memory is now set to true by default. When partition_filters=false, this could lead to somewhat increased average RSS memory usage by the block cache, but this "extra" usage is within the allowed memory budget and should make memory usage more consistent (by minimizing internal fragmentation for more kinds of blocks).
• Dump all keys for cache dumper impl if SetDumpFilter() is not called
• CompactRange() with CompactRangeOptions::change_level = true and CompactRangeOptions::target_level = 0 that ends up moving more than 1 file from non-L0 to L0 will return Status::Aborted().
• On distributed file systems that support file system level checksum verification and reconstruction reads, RocksDB will now retry a file read if the initial read fails RocksDB block level or record level checksum verification. This applies to MANIFEST file reads when the DB is opened, and to SST file reads at all times.

Bug Fixes

• Fix a bug causing VerifyFileChecksums() to return false-positive corruption under BlockBasedTableOptions::block_align=true
• Provide consistent view of the database across the column families for NewIterators() API.
• Fixed feature interaction bug for DeleteRange() together with ColumnFamilyOptions::memtable_insert_with_hint_prefix_extractor. The impact of this bug would likely be corruption or crashing.
• Fixed hang in DisableManualCompactions() where compactions waiting to be scheduled due to conflicts would not be canceled promptly
• Fixed a regression when ColumnFamilyOptions::max_successive_merges > 0 where the CPU overhead for deciding whether to merge could have increased unless the user had set the option ColumnFamilyOptions::strict_max_successive_merges
• Fixed a bug in MultiGet() and MultiGetEntity() together with blob files (ColumnFamilyOptions::enable_blob_files == true). An error looking up one of the keys could cause the results to be wrong for other keys for which the statuses were Status::OK.
• Fixed a bug where wrong padded bytes are used to generate file checksum and DataVerificationInfo::checksum upon file creation
• Correctly implemented the move semantics of PinnableWideColumns.
• Fixed a bug when the recycle_log_file_num in DBOptions is changed from 0 to non-zero when a DB is reopened. On a subsequent reopen, if a log file created when recycle_log_file_num==0 was reused previously, is alive and is empty, we could end up inserting stale WAL records into the memtable.
• *Fix a bug where obsolete files' deletion during DB::Open are not rate limited with SstFilemManager's slow deletion feature even if it's configured.

9.1.1 (2024-04-17)

Bug Fixes

• Fixed Java SstFileMetaData to prevent throwing java.lang.NoSuchMethodError
• Fixed a regression when ColumnFamilyOptions::max_successive_merges > 0 where the CPU overhead for deciding whether to merge could have increased unless the user had set the option ColumnFamilyOptions::strict_max_successive_merges

9.1.0 (2024-03-22)

New Features

• Added an option, GetMergeOperandsOptions::continue_cb, to give users the ability to end GetMergeOperands()'s lookup process before all merge operands were found.
• *Add sanity checks for ingesting external files that currently checks if the user key comparator used to create the file is compatible with the column family's user key comparator.
  *Support ingesting external files for column family that has user-defined timestamps in memtable only enabled.
• On file systems that support storage level data checksum and reconstruction, retry SST block reads for point lookups, scans, and flush and compaction if there's a checksum mismatch on the initial read.
• Some enhancements and fixes to experimental Temperature handling features, including new default_write_temperature CF option and opening an SstFileWriter with a temperature.
• WriteBatchWithIndex now supports wide-column point lookups via the GetEntityFromBatch API. See the API comments for more details.
• *Implement experimental features: API Iterator::GetProperty("rocksdb.iterator.write-time") to allow users to get data's approximate write unix time and write data with a specific write time via WriteBatch::TimedPut API.

Public API Changes

• Best-effort recovery (best_efforts_recovery == true) may now be used together with atomic flush (atomic_flush == true). The all-or-nothing recovery guarantee for atomically flushed data will be upheld.
• Remove deprecated option bottommost_temperature, already replaced by last_level_temperature
• Added new PerfContext counters for block cache bytes read - block_cache_index_read_byte, block_cache_filter_read_byte, block_cache_compression_dict_read_byte, and block_cache_read_byte.
• Deprecate experimental Remote Compaction APIs - StartV2() and WaitForCompleteV2() and introduce Schedule() and Wait(). The new APIs essentially does the same thing as the old APIs. They allow taking externally generated unique id to wait for remote compaction to complete.
• *For API WriteCommittedTransaction::GetForUpdate, if the column family enables user-defined timestamp, it was mandated that argument do_validate cannot be false, and UDT based validation has to be done with a user set read timestamp. It's updated to make the UDT based validation optional if user sets do_validate to false and does not set a read timestamp. With this, GetForUpdate skips UDT based validation and it's users' responsibility to enforce the UDT invariant. SO DO NOT skip this UDT-based validation if users do not have ways to enforce the UDT invariant. Ways to enforce the invariant on the users side include manage a monotonically increasing timestamp, commit transactions in a single thread etc.
• Defined a new PerfLevel kEnableWait to measure time spent by user threads blocked in RocksDB other than mutex, such as a write thread waiting to be added to a write group, a write thread delayed or stalled etc.
• RateLimiter's API no longer requires the burst size to be the refill size. Users of NewGenericRateLimiter() can now provide burst size in single_burst_bytes. Implementors of RateLimiter::SetSingleBurstBytes() need to adapt their implementations to match the changed API doc.
• Add write_memtable_time to the newly introduced PerfLevel kEnableWait.

Behavior Changes

• RateLimiters created by NewGenericRateLimiter() no longer modify the refill period when SetSingleBurstBytes() is called.
• Merge writes will only keep merge operand count within ColumnFamilyOptions::max_successive_merges when the key's merge operands are all found in memory, unless strict_max_successive_merges is explicitly set.

Bug Fixes

• Fixed kBlockCacheTier reads to return Status::Incomplete when I/O is needed to fetch a merge chain's base value from a blob file.
• Fixed kBlockCacheTier reads to return Status::Incomplete on table cache miss rather than incorrectly returning an empty value.
• Fixed a data race in WalManager that may affect how frequent PurgeObsoleteWALFiles() runs.
• Re-enable the recycle_log_file_num option in DBOptions for kPointInTimeRecovery WAL recovery mode, which was previously disabled due to a bug in the recovery logic. This option is incompatible with WriteOptions::disableWAL. A Status::InvalidArgument() will be returned if disableWAL is specified.

Performance Improvements

• Java API multiGet() variants now take advantage of the underlying batched multiGet() performance improvements.
