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.

Summary:
Currently, when we insert something into block cache, we say that the block cache capacity decreased by the size of the block. However, size of the block might be less than the actual memory used by this object. For example, 4.5KB block will actually use 8KB of memory. So even if we configure block cache to 10GB, our actually memory usage of block cache will be 20GB!
This problem showed up a lot in testing and just recently also showed up in MongoRocks production where we were using 30GB more memory than expected.
This diff will fix the problem. Instead of counting the block size, we will count memory used by the block. That way, a block cache configured to be 10GB will actually use only 10GB of memory.
I'm using non-portable function and I couldn't find info on portability on Google. However, it seems to work on Linux, which will cover majority of our use-cases.
Test Plan:
1. fill up mongo instance with 80GB of data
2. restart mongo with block cache size configured to 10GB
3. do a table scan in mongo
4. memory usage before the diff: 12GB. memory usage after the diff: 10.5GB

Test Plan: make check with LZ4 not present. If Snappy is not present all tests will just fail because Snappy is our default library. We should make Snappy the requirement, since without it our default DB::Open() fails.

Summary:
This is part of an effort to better understand and optimize RocksDB stalls under high load. I added a feature to db_bench to periodically write QPS to CSV files. That way we can nicely see how our QPS changes in time (especially when DB is stalled) and can do a better job of evaluating our stall system (i.e. we want the QPS to be as constant as possible, as opposed to having bunch of stalls)
Cool part of CSV files is that we can easily graph them -- there are a bunch of tools available.

Summary:
For transactions, we are using the memtables to validate that there are no write conflicts. But after flushing, we don't have any memtables, and transactions could fail to commit. So we want to someone keep around some extra history to use for conflict checking. In addition, we want to provide a way to increase the size of this history if too many transactions fail to commit.
After chatting with people, it seems like everyone prefers just using Memtables to store this history (instead of a separate history structure). It seems like the best place for this is abstracted inside the memtable_list. I decide to create a separate list in MemtableListVersion as using the same list complicated the flush/installalflushresults logic too much.
This diff adds a new parameter to control how much memtable history to keep around after flushing. However, it sounds like people aren't too fond of adding new parameters. So I am making the default size of flushed+not-flushed memtables be set to max_write_buffers. This should not change the maximum amount of memory used, but make it more likely we're using closer the the limit. (We are now postponing deleting flushed memtables until the max_write_buffer limit is reached). So while we might use more memory on average, we are still obeying the limit set (and you could argue it's better to go ahead and use up memory now instead of waiting for a write stall to happen to test this limit).
However, if people are opposed to this default behavior, we can easily set it to 0 and require this parameter be set in order to use transactions.
Test Plan: Added a xfunc test to play around with setting different values of this parameter in all tests. Added testing in memtablelist_test and planning on adding more testing here.

RocksDB contract allowes you to read a drop column family as long as there is a live reference. However, since our iteration ignores dropped column families, AddLiveFiles() didn't mark files of a dropped column families as live. So we deleted them.
In this patch I no longer ignore dropped column families in the iteration. I think this behavior was confusing and it also led to this bug. Now if an iterator client wants to ignore dropped column families, he needs to do it explicitly.

When turning it on, RocksDB is free to pick a level base in the range of (options.max_bytes_for_level_base/options.max_bytes_for_level_multiplier, options.max_bytes_for_level_base] so that real level ratios are close to options.max_bytes_for_level_multiplier.
