RocksDB v5.12.5

Bug Fixes

• Fix regression bug of Prev() with ReadOptions.iterate_upper_bound.

RocksDB v5.13.3

5.13.3 (6/6/2018)

Bug Fixes

• Fix assertion when reading bloom filter of SST files containing range deletions but no data

RocksDB v5.13.2

5.13.2 (5/25/2018)

Public API Change

• Introduced CompressionOptions::kDefaultCompressionLevel, which is a generic way to tell RocksDB to use the compression library's default level. It is now the default value for CompressionOptions::level. Previously the level defaulted to -1, which gave poor compression ratios in ZSTD.

Bug Fixes

• Fix segfault caused by object premature destruction (PR #3898)
• Fix an issue with unnecessary capture in lambda expressions (PR #3904)

RocksDB 5.13.1

5.13.1 (4/30/2018)

New Features

• Add Env::LowerThreadPoolCPUPriority(Priority) method, which lowers the CPU priority of background (esp. compaction) threads to minimize interference with foreground tasks.
• Eliminate use of temporary directories in BackupEngine to improve reliability on distributed file systems.

5.13.0 (3/20/2018)

Public API Change

• RocksDBOptionsParser::Parse()'s ignore_unknown_options argument will only be effective if the option file shows it is generated using a higher version of RocksDB than the current version.
• Remove CompactionEventListener.

New Features

• SstFileManager now can cancel compactions if they will result in max space errors. SstFileManager users can also use SetCompactionBufferSize to specify how much space must be leftover during a compaction for auxiliary file functions such as logging and flushing.
• Avoid unnecessarily flushing in CompactRange() when the range specified by the user does not overlap unflushed memtables.
• If ColumnFamilyOptions::max_subcompactions is set greater than one, we now parallelize large manual level-based compactions.
• Add "rocksdb.live-sst-files-size" DB property to return total bytes of all SST files belong to the latest LSM tree.

Bug Fixes

• Fix a leak in prepared_section_completed_ where the zeroed entries would not removed from the map.
• Fix WAL corruption caused by race condition between user write thread and backup/checkpoint thread.
• Fsync after writing global seq number to the ingestion file in ExternalSstFileIngestionJob.
• Fix memory leak when pin_l0_filter_and_index_blocks_in_cache is used with partitioned filters

Java API Changes

• Add BlockBasedTableConfig.setBlockCache to allow sharing a block cache across DB instances.

RocksDB 5.12.4

5.12.4 (4/23/2018)

Bug Fixes

• Fix memory leak in two_level_iterator

5.12.3 (4/23/2018)

Bug Fixes

• Fix memory leak when pin_l0_filter_and_index_blocks_in_cache is used with partitioned filters

5.12.2 (3/23/2018)

Bug Fixes

• Fsync after writing global seq number to the ingestion file in ExternalSstFileIngestionJob.

Java API Changes

• Add BlockBasedTableConfig.setBlockCache to allow sharing a block cache across DB instances.

5.12.1 (3/16/2018)

Public API Change

• RocksDBOptionsParser::Parse()'s ignore_unknown_options argument will only be effective if the option file shows it is generated using a higher version of RocksDB than the current version.

New Features

• Avoid unnecessarily flushing in CompactRange() when the range specified by the user does not overlap unflushed memtables.

Bug Fixes

• Fix WAL corruption caused by race condition between user write thread and backup/checkpoint thread.

5.12.0 (2/14/2018)

Public API Change

• Iterator::SeekForPrev is now a pure virtual method. This is to prevent user who implement the Iterator interface fail to implement SeekForPrev by mistake.
• Add include_end option to make the range end exclusive when include_end == false in DeleteFilesInRange().
• Add CompactRangeOptions::allow_write_stall, which makes CompactRange start working immediately, even if it causes user writes to stall. The default value is false, meaning we add delay to CompactRange calls until stalling can be avoided when possible. Note this delay is not present in previous RocksDB versions.
• Creating checkpoint with empty directory now returns Status::InvalidArgument; previously, it returned Status::IOError.
• Adds a BlockBasedTableOption to turn off index block compression.
• Close() method now returns a status when closing a db.

New Features

• Improve the performance of iterators doing long range scans by using readahead.
• Add new function DeleteFilesInRanges() to delete files in multiple ranges at once for better performance.
• FreeBSD build support for RocksDB and RocksJava.
• Improved performance of long range scans with readahead.
• Updated to and now continuously tested in Visual Studio 2017.

Bug Fixes

• Fix DisableFileDeletions() followed by GetSortedWalFiles() to not return obsolete WAL files that PurgeObsoleteFiles() is going to delete.
• Fix Handle error return from WriteBuffer() during WAL file close and DB close.
• Fix advance reservation of arena block addresses.
• Fix handling of empty string as checkpoint directory.
