Unlike // the Iterator interface, the returned keys are InternalKeys composed of the // user-key, a sequence number and a key kind. In forward iteration, key/value // pairs for identical user-keys are returned in descending sequence order. In // reverse iteration, key/value pairs for identical user-keys are returned in // ascending sequence order. // // InternalIterators provide 5 absolute positioning methods and 2 relative // positioning methods. The absolute positioning methods are: // // - SeekGE // - SeekPrefixGE // - SeekLT // - First // - Last // // The relative positioning methods are: // // - Next // - Prev // // The relative positioning methods can be used in conjunction with any of the // absolute positioning methods with one exception: SeekPrefixGE does not // support reverse iteration via Prev. It is undefined to call relative // positioning methods without ever calling an absolute positioning method. // // InternalIterators can optionally implement a prefix iteration mode. This // mode is entered by calling SeekPrefixGE and exited by any other absolute // positioning method (SeekGE, SeekLT, First, Last). When in prefix iteration // mode, a call to Next will advance to the next key which has the same // "prefix" as the one supplied to SeekPrefixGE. Note that "prefix" in this // context is not a strict byte prefix, but defined by byte equality for the // result of the Comparer.Split method. An InternalIterator is not required to // support prefix iteration mode, and can implement SeekPrefixGE by forwarding // to SeekGE. // // Bounds, [lower, upper), can be set on iterators, either using the SetBounds() // function in the interface, or in implementation specific ways during iterator // creation. The forward positioning routines (SeekGE, First, and Next) only // check the upper bound. The reverse positioning routines (SeekLT, Last, and // Prev) only check the lower bound. It is up to the caller to ensure that the // forward positioning routines respect the lower bound and the reverse // positioning routines respect the upper bound (i.e. calling SeekGE instead of // First if there is a lower bound, and SeekLT instead of Last if there is an // upper bound). This imposition is done in order to elevate that enforcement to // the caller (generally pebble.Iterator or pebble.mergingIter) rather than // having it duplicated in every InternalIterator implementation. // // Additionally, the caller needs to ensure that SeekGE/SeekPrefixGE are not // called with a key > the upper bound, and SeekLT is not called with a key < // the lower bound. InternalIterator implementations are required to respect // the iterator bounds, never returning records outside of the bounds with one // exception: an iterator may generate synthetic RANGEDEL marker records. See // levelIter.syntheticBoundary for the sole existing example of this behavior. // Specifically, levelIter can return synthetic keys whose user key is equal to // the lower/upper bound. // // The bounds provided to an internal iterator must remain valid until a // subsequent call to SetBounds has returned. This requirement exists so that // iterator implementations may compare old and new bounds to apply low-level // optimizations. The pebble.Iterator satisfies this requirement by maintaining // two bound buffers and switching between them. // // An iterator must be closed after use, but it is not necessary to read an // iterator until exhaustion. // // An iterator is not goroutine-safe, but it is safe to use multiple iterators // concurrently, either in separate goroutines or switching between the // iterators in a single goroutine. // // It is also safe to use an iterator concurrently with modifying its // underlying DB, if that DB permits modification. However, the resultant // key/value pairs are not guaranteed to be a consistent snapshot of that DB // at a particular point in time. // // InternalIterators accumulate errors encountered during operation, exposing // them through the Error method. All of the absolute positioning methods // reset any accumulated error before positioning. Relative positioning // methods return without advancing if the iterator has accumulated an error. type InternalIterator interface { // SeekGE moves the iterator to the first key/value pair whose key is greater // than or equal to the given key.
