Botond Dénes 485df63fd5 Merge 'Extend compaction_history table with additional compaction statistics' from Łukasz Paszkowski
Currently, the `system.compaction_history` table miss information like the type of compaction (cleanup, major, resharding, etc), the sstable generations involved (in and out), shard's id the compaction was triggered on and statistics on purged tombstones to be collected during compaction.

The series extends the table with the following columns:

-  "compaction_type" (text)
- "shard_id" (int)
- "sstables_in" (list<sstableinfo_type>)
- "sstables_out" (list<sstableinfo_type>)
- "total_tombstone_purge_attempt" (long)
- "total_tombstone_purge_failure_due_to_overlapping_with_memtable" (long)
- "total_tombstone_purge_failure_due_to_overlapping_with_uncompacting_sstable" (long)

with a user defined type `sstableinfo_type` that holds the information about sstable file

- generation (uuid)
- origin (text)
- size (long)

Additional statistics stored in the compaction_history have been incorporated in the API  `/compaction_manager/compaction_history` and the `nodetool compactionhistory` command.

No backport is required. It extends the existing compaction history output.

Fixes https://github.com/scylladb/scylladb/issues/3791

Closes scylladb/scylladb#21288

ScyllaDB Documentation

This repository contains the source files for ScyllaDB Open Source documentation.

  • The dev folder contains developer-oriented documentation related to the ScyllaDB code base. It is not published and is only available via GitHub.
  • All other folders and files contain user-oriented documentation related to ScyllaDB Open Source and are sources for opensource.docs.scylladb.com.

To report a documentation bug or suggest an improvement, open an issue in GitHub issues for this project.

Key Guidelines for Contributors

To prevent the build from failing:

  • If you add a new file, ensure it's added to an appropriate toctree, for example:

     .. toctree::
        :maxdepth: 2
        :hidden:
    
        Page X </folder1/article1>
        Page Y </folder1/article2>
        Your New Page </folder1/your-new-article>
    
  • Make sure the link syntax is correct. See the guidelines on creating links

Building User Documentation

Prerequisites

  • Python
  • poetry
  • make

See the ScyllaDB Sphinx Theme prerequisites to check which versions of the above are currently required.

Mac OS X

You must have a working Homebrew in order to install the needed tools.

You also need the standard utility make.

Check if you have these two items with the following commands:

brew help
make -h

Linux Distributions

Building the user docs should work out of the box on most Linux distributions.

Windows

Use "Bash on Ubuntu on Windows" for the same tools and capabilities as on Linux distributions.

Building the Docs

  1. Run make preview to build the documentation.
  2. Preview the built documentation locally at http://127.0.0.1:5500/.

Cleanup

You can clean up all the build products and auto-installed Python stuff with:

make pristine

If you are interested in contributing to Scylla docs, please read the Scylla open source page at http://www.scylladb.com/opensource/ and complete a Scylla contributor agreement if needed. We can only accept documentation pull requests if we have a contributor agreement on file for you.
