in other words, do not create bpo::value unless transfer it to an
option_description.
`boost::program_options::value()` create a new typed_value<T> object,
without holding it with a shared_ptr. boost::program_options expects
developer to construct a `bpo::option_description` right away from it.
and `boost::program_options::option_description` takes the ownership
of the `type_value<T>*` raw pointer, and manages its life cycle with
a shared_ptr. but before passing it to a `bpo::option_description`,
the pointer created by `boost::program_options::value()` is a still
a raw pointer.
before this change, we initialize `operations_with_func` as global
variables using `boost::program_options::value()`. but unfortunately,
we don't always initialize a `bpo::option_description` from it --
we only do this on demand when the corresponding subcommand is
called.
so, if the corresponding subcommand is not called, the created
`typed_value<T>` objects are leaked. hence LeakSanitizer warns us.
after this change, we create the option map as a static
local variable in a function so it is created on demand as well.
as an alternative, we could initialize the options map as local
variable where it used. but to be more consistent with how
`global_option` is specified. and to colocate them in a single
place, let's keep the existing code layout.
this change is quite similar to 374bed8c3d

Scylla
What is Scylla?
Scylla is the real-time big data database that is API-compatible with Apache Cassandra and Amazon DynamoDB. Scylla embraces a shared-nothing approach that increases throughput and storage capacity to realize order-of-magnitude performance improvements and reduce hardware costs.
For more information, please see the ScyllaDB web site.
Build Prerequisites
Scylla is fairly fussy about its build environment, requiring very recent versions of the C++20 compiler and of many libraries to build. The document HACKING.md includes detailed information on building and developing Scylla, but to get Scylla building quickly on (almost) any build machine, Scylla offers a frozen toolchain, This is a pre-configured Docker image which includes recent versions of all the required compilers, libraries and build tools. Using the frozen toolchain allows you to avoid changing anything in your build machine to meet Scylla's requirements - you just need to meet the frozen toolchain's prerequisites (mostly, Docker or Podman being available).
Building Scylla
Building Scylla with the frozen toolchain dbuild is as easy as:
$ git submodule update --init --force --recursive
$ ./tools/toolchain/dbuild ./configure.py
$ ./tools/toolchain/dbuild ninja build/release/scylla
For further information, please see:
- Developer documentation for more information on building Scylla.
- Build documentation on how to build Scylla binaries, tests, and packages.
- Docker image build documentation for information on how to build Docker images.
Running Scylla
To start Scylla server, run:
$ ./tools/toolchain/dbuild ./build/release/scylla --workdir tmp --smp 1 --developer-mode 1
This will start a Scylla node with one CPU core allocated to it and data files stored in the tmp directory.
The --developer-mode is needed to disable the various checks Scylla performs at startup to ensure the machine is configured for maximum performance (not relevant on development workstations).
Please note that you need to run Scylla with dbuild if you built it with the frozen toolchain.
For more run options, run:
$ ./tools/toolchain/dbuild ./build/release/scylla --help
Testing
See test.py manual.
Scylla APIs and compatibility
By default, Scylla is compatible with Apache Cassandra and its APIs - CQL and Thrift. There is also support for the API of Amazon DynamoDB™, which needs to be enabled and configured in order to be used. For more information on how to enable the DynamoDB™ API in Scylla, and the current compatibility of this feature as well as Scylla-specific extensions, see Alternator and Getting started with Alternator.

Training
Training material and online courses can be found at Scylla University. The courses are free, self-paced and include hands-on examples. They cover a variety of topics including Scylla data modeling, administration, architecture, basic NoSQL concepts, using drivers for application development, Scylla setup, failover, compactions, multi-datacenters and how Scylla integrates with third-party applications.
