Andrew Kryczka 072ae671a7 Apply use_direct_io_for_flush_and_compaction to writes only
Summary:
Previously `DBOptions::use_direct_io_for_flush_and_compaction=true` combined with `DBOptions::use_direct_reads=false` could cause RocksDB to simultaneously read from two file descriptors for the same file, where background reads used direct I/O and foreground reads used buffered I/O. Our measurements found this mixed-mode I/O negatively impacted foreground read perf, compared to when only buffered I/O was used.

This PR makes the mixed-mode I/O situation impossible by repurposing `DBOptions::use_direct_io_for_flush_and_compaction` to only apply to background writes, and `DBOptions::use_direct_reads` to apply to all reads. There is no risk of direct background direct writes happening simultaneously with buffered reads since we never read from and write to the same file simultaneously.

RocksDB: A Persistent Key-Value Store for Flash and RAM Storage

Linux/Mac Build Status Windows Build status PPC64le Build Status

RocksDB is developed and maintained by Facebook Database Engineering Team. It is built on earlier work on LevelDB by Sanjay Ghemawat (sanjay@google.com) and Jeff Dean (jeff@google.com)

This code is a library that forms the core building block for a fast key value server, especially suited for storing data on flash drives. It has a Log-Structured-Merge-Database (LSM) design with flexible tradeoffs between Write-Amplification-Factor (WAF), Read-Amplification-Factor (RAF) and Space-Amplification-Factor (SAF). It has multi-threaded compactions, making it specially suitable for storing multiple terabytes of data in a single database.

Start with example usage here: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/tree/master/examples

See the github wiki for more explanation.

The public interface is in include/. Callers should not include or rely on the details of any other header files in this package. Those internal APIs may be changed without warning.

Design discussions are conducted in https://www.facebook.com/groups/rocksdb.dev/
