Conversation
…rfscale Throwaway variant to benchmark an upstream suggestion on etcd-io/bbolt#939 of toggling MADV_RANDOM off only around compaction instead of removing it. Add SetMmapAdvice(random bool) to the Backend interface, forwarding to bbolt's DB.SetMmapAdvice. scheduleCompaction sets MADV_NORMAL for the whole compaction pass and restores MADV_RANDOM on exit (covering both the normal and stop-signal returns), so the pass is bracketed once rather than per batch. The bbolt replace directive points at the madvise-toggle fork (v1.4.3 + SetMmapAdvice): MADV_RANDOM steady state plus the runtime toggle. Note: the setter takes bbolt's mmaplock for reading, not writing; a write lock deadlocks against etcd's long-lived read transaction. Not intended to merge; deleted once the perfscale comparison is captured. Assisted-by: Claude Code (Opus 4.8)

Record SetMmapAdvice failures.
Both calls discard the madvise error. If either call fails, compaction continues without recording that the mmap hint was not applied or restored. Log each error with s.lg.Warn and zap.Error(err) while keeping the operation non-fatal.
