4a21b1402c Cache heap::downheap() root comparison (optimize heap cmp call)
Summary:
Reduce number of comparisons in heap by caching which child node in the first level is smallest (left_child or right_child)
So next time we can compare directly against the smallest child

I see that the total number of calls to comparator drops significantly when using this optimization

Before caching (~2mil key comparison for iterating the DB)
```
$ DEBUG_LEVEL=0 make db_bench -j64 && ./db_bench --benchmarks="readseq" --db="/dev/shm/heap_opt" --use_existing_db --disable_auto_compactions --cache_size=1000000000  --perf_level=2
readseq      :       0.338 micros/op 2959201 ops/sec;  327.4 MB/s user_key_comparison_count = 2000008
```
After caching (~1mil key comparison for iterating the DB)
```
$ DEBUG_LEVEL=0 make db_bench -j64 && ./db_bench --benchmarks="readseq" --db="/dev/shm/heap_opt" --use_existing_db --disable_auto_compactions --cache_size=1000000000 --perf_level=2
readseq      :       0.309 micros/op 3236801 ops/sec;  358.1 MB/s user_key_comparison_count = 1000011

247d0979aa Support for range skips in compaction filter
Summary:
This adds the ability for compaction filter to say "drop this key-value, and also drop everything up to key x". This will cause the compaction to seek input iterator to x, without reading the data. This can make compaction much faster when large consecutive chunks of data are filtered out. See the changes in include/rocksdb/compaction_filter.h for the new API.

Along the way this diff also adds ability for compaction filter changing merge operands, similar to how it can change values; we're not going to use this feature, it just seemed easier and cleaner to implement it than to document that it's not implemented :)

The diff is not as big as it may seem, about half of the lines are a test.

236d4c67e9 Less linear search in DBIter::Seek() when keys are overwritten a lot
Summary:
In one deployment we saw high latencies (presumably from slow iterator operations) and a lot of CPU time reported by perf with this stack:

```
  rocksdb::MergingIterator::Next
  rocksdb::DBIter::FindNextUserEntryInternal
  rocksdb::DBIter::Seek
```

I think what's happening is:
1. we create a snapshot iterator,
2. we do lots of Put()s for the same key x; this creates lots of entries in memtable,
3. we seek the iterator to a key slightly smaller than x,
4. the seek walks over lots of entries in memtable for key x, skipping them because of high sequence numbers.

cd7c4143d7 Improve Write Stalling System
Summary:
Current write stalling system has the problem of lacking of positive feedback if the restricted rate is already too low. Users sometimes stack in very low slowdown value. With the diff, we add a positive feedback (increasing the slowdown value) if we recover from slowdown state back to normal. To avoid the positive feedback to keep the slowdown value to be to high, we add issue a negative feedback every time we are close to the stop condition. Experiments show it is easier to reach a relative balance than before.

Also increase level0_stop_writes_trigger default from 24 to 32. Since level0_slowdown_writes_trigger default is 20, stop trigger 24 only gives four files as the buffer time to slowdown writes. In order to avoid stop in four files while 20 files have been accumulated, the slowdown value must be very low, which is amost the same as stop. It also doesn't give enough time for the slowdown value to converge. Increase it to 32 will smooth out the system.

dfb6fe6755 Unified InlineSkipList::Insert algorithm with hinting
Summary:
This PR is based on nbronson's diff with small
modifications to wire it up with existing interface. Comparing to
previous version, this approach works better for inserting keys in
decreasing order or updating the same key, and impose less restriction
to the prefix extractor.

---- Summary from original diff ----

This diff introduces a single InlineSkipList::Insert that unifies
the existing sequential insert optimization (prev_), concurrent insertion,
and insertion using externally-managed insertion point hints.

There's a deep symmetry between insertion hints (cursors) and the
concurrent algorithm.  In both cases we have partial information from
the recent past that is likely but not certain to be accurate.  This diff
introduces the struct InlineSkipList::Splice, which encodes predecessor
and successor information in the same form that was previously only used
within a single call to InsertConcurrently.  Splice holds information
about an insertion point that can be used to levera

3068870cce Making persistent cache more resilient to filesystem failures
Summary:
The persistent cache is designed to hop over errors and return key not found. So far, it has shown resilience to write errors, encoding errors, data corruption etc. It is not resilient against disappearing files/directories. This was exposed during testing when multiple instances of persistence cache was started sharing the same directory simulating an unpredictable filesystem environment.

This patch

- makes the write code path more resilient to errors while creating files
- makes the read code path more resilient to handle situation where files are not found
- added a test that does negative write/read testing by removing the directory while writes are in progress

734e4acafb Eliminate redundant cache lookup with range deletion
Summary:
When we introduced range deletion block, TableCache::Get() and TableCache::NewIterator() each did two table cache lookups, one for range deletion block iterator and another for getting the table reader to which the Get()/NewIterator() is delegated. This extra cache lookup was very CPU-intensive (about 10% overhead in a read-heavy benchmark). We can avoid it by reusing the Cache::Handle created for range deletion block iterator to get the file reader.

Currently, deadlock cycles are held in std::unordered_map. The problem with it is that it allocates/deallocates memory on every insertion/deletion. This limits throughput since we're doing this expensive operation while holding a global mutex. Fix this by using a vector which caches memory instead.

3f62215210 Lazily initialize RangeDelAggregator's map and pinning manager
Summary:
Since a RangeDelAggregator is created for each read request, these heap-allocating member variables were consuming significant CPU (~3% total) which slowed down request throughput. The map and pinning manager are only necessary when range deletions exist, so we can defer their initialization until the first range deletion is encountered. Currently lazy initialization is done for reads only since reads pass us a single snapshot, which is easier to store on the stack for later insertion into the map than the vector passed to us by flush or compaction.

Note the Arena member variable is still expensive, I will figure out what to do with it in a subsequent diff. It cannot be lazily initialized because we currently use this arena even to allocate empty iterators, which is necessary even when no range deletions exist.

36e4762ce0 Remove Ticker::SEQUENCE_NUMBER
Summary:
Remove the ticker count because:
* Having to reset the ticker count in WriteImpl is ineffiecent;
* It doesn't make sense to have it as a ticker count if multiple db
  instance share a statistics object.

0765babe15 Remove LATEST_BACKUP file
Summary:
This has been unused since D42069 but kept around for backward
compatibility. I think it is unlikely anyone will use a much older version of
RocksDB for restore than they use for backup, so I propose removing it. It is
also causing recurring confusion, e.g., https://www.facebook.com/groups/rocksdb.dev/permalink/980454015386446/
