Peter Dillinger fc9d4071f0 Fast path for detecting unchanged prefix_extractor (#9407)
Summary:
Fixes a major performance regression in 6.26, where
extra CPU is spent in SliceTransform::AsString when reads involve
a prefix_extractor (Get, MultiGet, Seek). Common case performance
is now better than 6.25.

This change creates a "fast path" for verifying that the current prefix
extractor is unchanged and compatible with what was used to
generate a table file. This fast path detects the common case by
pointer comparison on the current prefix_extractor and a "known
good" prefix extractor (if applicable) that is saved at the time the
table reader is opened. The "known good" prefix extractor is saved
as another shared_ptr copy (in an existing field, however) to ensure
the pointer is not recycled.

When the prefix_extractor has changed to a different instance but
same compatible configuration (rare, odd), performance is still a
regression compared to 6.25, but this is likely acceptable because
of the oddity of such a case. The performance of incompatible
prefix_extractor is essentially unchanged.

Also fixed a minor case (ForwardIterator) where a prefix_extractor
could be used via a raw pointer after being freed as a shared_ptr,
if replaced via SetOptions.

Test Plan:
## Performance
Populate DB with `TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm/rocksdb ./db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=10000000 -disable_wal=1 -write_buffer_size=10000000 -bloom_bits=16 -compaction_style=2 -fifo_compaction_max_table_files_size_mb=10000 -fifo_compaction_allow_compaction=0 -prefix_size=12`

Running head-to-head comparisons simultaneously with `TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm/rocksdb ./db_bench -use_existing_db -readonly -benchmarks=seekrandom -num=10000000 -duration=20 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 -compaction_style=2 -fifo_compaction_max_table_files_size_mb=10000 -fifo_compaction_allow_compaction=0 -prefix_size=12`

Below each is compared by ops/sec vs. baseline which is version 6.25 (multiple baseline runs because of variable machine load)

v6.26: 4833 vs. 6698 (<- major regression!)
v6.27: 4737 vs. 6397 (still)
New: 6704 vs. 6461 (better than baseline in common case)
Disabled fastpath: 4843 vs. 6389 (e.g. if prefix extractor instance changes but is still compatible)
Changed prefix size (no usable filter) in new: 787 vs. 5927
Changed prefix size (no usable filter) in new & baseline: 773 vs. 784

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

CircleCI Status TravisCI Status Appveyor 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 especially suitable for storing multiple terabytes of data in a single database.

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