b7198c3afe reduce db mutex contention for write batch groups
Summary:
This diff allows a Writer to join the next write batch group
without acquiring any locks. Waiting is performed via a per-Writer mutex,
so all of the non-leader writers never need to acquire the db mutex.
It is now possible to join a write batch group after the leader has been
chosen but before the batch has been constructed. This diff doesn't
increase parallelism, but reduces synchronization overheads.

For some CPU-bound workloads (no WAL, RAM-sized working set) this can
substantially reduce contention on the db mutex in a multi-threaded
environment.  With T=8 N=500000 in a CPU-bound scenario (see the test
plan) this is good for a 33% perf win.  Not all scenarios see such a
win, but none show a loss.  This code is slightly faster even for the
single-threaded case (about 2% for the CPU-bound scenario below).

Test Plan:
1. unit tests
2. COMPILE_WITH_TSAN=1 make check
3. stress high-contention scenarios with db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -threads=$T -batch_size=1 -memtablerep=skip_list -value_size=0 --num=$N -level0_slowdown_writes_trigger=9999 -level0_stop_writes_trigger=9999 -disable_auto_compactions --max_write_buffer_number=8 -max_background_flushes=8 --disable_wal --write_buffer_size=160000000

5aea98ddd8 Deprecate WriteOptions::timeout_hint_us
Summary:
In one of our recent meetings, we discussed deprecating features that are not being actively used. One of those features, at least within Facebook, is timeout_hint. The feature is really nicely implemented, but if nobody needs it, we should remove it from our code-base (until we get a valid use-case). Some arguments:
* Less code == better icache hit rate, smaller builds, simpler code
* The motivation for adding timeout_hint_us was to work-around RocksDB's stall issue. However, we're currently addressing the stall issue itself (see @sdong's recent work on stall write_rate), so we should never see sharp lock-ups in the future.
* Nobody is using the feature within Facebook's code-base. Googling for `timeout_hint_us` also doesn't yield any users.

218487d8dc [wal changes 1/3] fixed unbounded wal growth in some workloads
Summary:
This fixes the following scenario we've hit:
 - we reached max_total_wal_size, created a new wal and scheduled flushing all memtables corresponding to the old one,
 - before the last of these flushes started its column family was dropped; the last background flush call was a no-op; no one removed the old wal from alive_logs_,
 - hours have passed and no flushes happened even though lots of data was written; data is written to different column families, compactions are disabled; old column families are dropped before memtable grows big enough to trigger a flush; the old wal still sits in alive_logs_ preventing max_total_wal_size limit from kicking in,
 - a few more hours pass and we run out disk space because of one huge .log file.

Test Plan: `make check`; backported the new test, checked that it fails without this diff

3ce3bb3da2 Allowing L0 -> L1 trivial move on sorted data
Summary:
This diff updates the logic of how we do trivial move, now trivial move can run on any number of files in input level as long as they are not overlapping

The conditions for trivial move have been updated

Introduced conditions:
  - Trivial move cannot happen if we have a compaction filter (except if the compaction is not manual)
  - Input level files cannot be overlapping

Removed conditions:
  - Trivial move only run when the compaction is not manual
  - Input level should can contain only 1 file

More context on what tests failed because of Trivial move
```
DBTest.CompactionsGenerateMultipleFiles
This test is expecting compaction on a file in L0 to generate multiple files in L1, this test will fail with trivial move because we end up with one file in L1
```

```
DBTest.NoSpaceCompactRange
This test expect compaction to fail when we force environment to report running out of space, of course this is not valid in trivial move situation
because trivial move does not need any extra space, and did not check for that
```

```
DBTest.DropWrites
Similar to DBTest.NoSpaceCompactRange
```

```
DBTest.DeleteObsoleteFilesPendingOutputs
This test expect that a file in L2 is deleted after it's moved to L3, this is not valid with trivial move because although the file was moved it is now used by L3
```

```
CuckooTableDBTest.CompactionIntoMultipleFiles
Same as DBTest.CompactionsGenerateMultipleFiles
```

fd3dbef22b Clean up old log files in background threads
Summary:
Cleaning up log files can do heavy IO, since we call ftruncate() in the destructor. We don't want to call ftruncate() in user threads.

This diff moves cleaning to background threads (flush and compaction)

Test Plan: make check, will also run valgrind

76d1c28e82 Make CompactionPicker more easily tested
Summary:
Make compaction picker easier to test.
The basic idea is to separate a minimum subcomponent of Version to VersionStorageInfo, which just responsible to LSM tree. A stub VersionStorageInfo can then be easily created and passed into compaction picker so that we can check the outputs.

It now passes most tests. Still two things need to be done:
(1) deal with the FIFO compaction's file size.
(2) write an example test to make sure the interface can do the job.

Add a compaction_picker_test to make sure compaction picker codes can be easily unit tested.

Test Plan:
Pass all unit tests and compaction_picker_test

dd9eb7a7d5 Cache result of ReadFirstRecord()
Summary:
ReadFirstRecord() reads the actual log file from disk on every call. This diff introduces a cache layer on top of ReadFirstRecord(), which should significantly speed up repeated calls to GetUpdatesSince().

I also cleaned up some stuff, but the whole TransactionLogIterator could use some refactoring, especially if we see increased usage.
