Summary:
The existing implementation does not guarantee bytes reach disk every `bytes_per_sync` when writing SST files, or every `wal_bytes_per_sync` when writing WALs. This can cause confusing behavior for users who enable this feature to avoid large syncs during flush and compaction, but then end up hitting them anyways.
My understanding of the existing behavior is we used `sync_file_range` with `SYNC_FILE_RANGE_WRITE` to submit ranges for async writeback, such that we could continue processing the next range of bytes while that I/O is happening. I believe we can preserve that benefit while also limiting how far the processing can get ahead of the I/O, which prevents huge syncs from happening when the file finishes.
Consider this `sync_file_range` usage: `sync_file_range(fd_, 0, static_cast<off_t>(offset + nbytes), SYNC_FILE_RANGE_WAIT_BEFORE | SYNC_FILE_RANGE_WRITE)`. Expanding the range to start at 0 and adding the `SYNC_FILE_RANGE_WAIT_BEFORE` flag causes any pending writeback (like from a previous call to `sync_file_range`) to finish before it proceeds to submit the latest `nbytes` for writeback. The latest `nbytes` are still written back asynchronously, unless processing exceeds I/O speed, in which case the following `sync_file_range` will need to wait on it.
There is a second change in this PR to use `fdatasync` when `sync_file_range` is unavailable (determined statically) or has some known problem with the underlying filesystem (determined dynamically).
The above two changes only apply when the user enables a new option, `strict_bytes_per_sync`.

Summary:
Remove double buffering on RandomRead on Windows.
With more logic appear in file reader/write Read no longer
obeys forwarding calls to Windows implementation.
Previously direct_io (unbuffered) was only available on Windows
but now is supported as generic.
We remove intermediate buffering on Windows.
Remove random_access_max_buffer_size option which was windows specific.
Non-zero values for that opton introduced unnecessary lock contention.
Remove Env::EnableReadAhead(), Env::ShouldForwardRawRequest() that are
no longer necessary.
Add aligned buffer reads for cases when requested reads exceed read ahead size.

Summary:
also change variable name `direct_io_` to `use_direct_io_` in WritableFile to make it consistent with read path.

EnvLibrados is a customized RocksDB Env to use RADOS as the backend file system of RocksDB. It overrides all file system related API of default Env. The easiest way to use it is just like following:
std::string db_name = "test_db";
std::string config_path = "path/to/ceph/config";
DB* db;
Options options;
options.env = EnvLibrados(db_name, config_path);
Status s = DB::Open(options, kDBPath, &db);
Then EnvLibrados will forward all file read/write operation to the RADOS cluster assigned by config_path. Default pool is db_name+"_pool".
There are some options that users could set for EnvLibrados.
- write_buffer_size. This variable is the max buffer size for WritableFile. After reaching the buffer_max_size, EnvLibrados will sync buffer content to RADOS, then clear buffer.
- db_pool. Rather than using default pool, users could set their own db pool name
- wal_dir. The dir for WAL files. Because RocksDB only has 2-level structure (dir_name/file_name), the format of wal_dir is "/dir_name"(CAN'T be "/dir1/dir2"). Default wal_dir is "/wal".
- wal_pool. Corresponding pool name for WAL files. Default value is db_name+"_wal_pool"
The example of setting options looks like following:
db_name = "test_db";
db_pool = db_name+"_pool";
wal_dir = "/wal";
wal_pool = db_name+"_wal_pool";
write_buffer_size = 1 << 20;
env_ = new EnvLibrados(db_name, config, db_pool, wal_dir, wal_pool, write_buffer_size);
DB* db;
Options options;
options.env = env_;
// The last level dir name should match the dir name in prefix_pool_map
options.wal_dir = "/tmp/wal";
// open DB
Status s = DB::Open(options, kDBPath, &db);
Librados is required to compile EnvLibrados. Then use "$make LIBRADOS=1" to compile RocksDB. If you want to only compile EnvLibrados test, just run "$ make env_librados_test LIBRADOS=1". To run env_librados_test, you need to have a running RADOS cluster with the configure file located in "../ceph/src/ceph.conf" related to "rocksdb/".
