Summary:
Add `num_levels`, `is_bottommost`, and table file creation
`reason` to `FilterBuildingContext`, in anticipation of more powerful
Bloom-like filter support.
To support this, added `is_bottommost` and `reason` to
`TableBuilderOptions`, which allowed removing `reason` parameter from
`rocksdb::BuildTable`.
I attempted to remove `skip_filters` from `TableBuilderOptions`, because
filter construction decisions should arise from options, not one-off
parameters. I could not completely remove it because the public API for
SstFileWriter takes a `skip_filters` parameter, and translating this
into an option change would mean awkwardly replacing the table_factory
if it is BlockBasedTableFactory with new filter_policy=nullptr option.
I marked this public skip_filters option as deprecated because of this
oddity. (skip_filters on the read side probably makes sense.)
At least `skip_filters` is now largely hidden for users of
`TableBuilderOptions` and is no longer used for implementing the
optimize_filters_for_hits option. Bringing the logic for that option
closer to handling of FilterBuildingContext makes it more obvious that
hese two are using the same notion of "bottommost." (Planned:
configuration options for Bloom-like filters that generalize
`optimize_filters_for_hits`)
Recommended follow-up: Try to get away from "bottommost level" naming of
things, which is inaccurate (see
VersionStorageInfo::RangeMightExistAfterSortedRun), and move to
"bottommost run" or just "bottommost."

Test Plan:
extended an existing unit test to exercise and check various
filter building contexts. Also, existing tests for
optimize_filters_for_hits validate some of the "bottommost" handling,
which is now closely connected to FilterBuildingContext::is_bottommost
through TableBuilderOptions::is_bottommost

Summary:
Greatly reduced the not-quite-copy-paste giant parameter lists
of rocksdb::NewTableBuilder, rocksdb::BuildTable,
BlockBasedTableBuilder::Rep ctor, and BlockBasedTableBuilder ctor.
Moved weird separate parameter `uint32_t column_family_id` of
TableFactory::NewTableBuilder into TableBuilderOptions.
Re-ordered parameters to TableBuilderOptions ctor, so that `uint64_t
target_file_size` is not randomly placed between uint64_t timestamps
(was easy to mix up).
Replaced a couple of fields of BlockBasedTableBuilder::Rep with a
FilterBuildingContext. The motivation for this change is making it
easier to pass along more data into new fields in FilterBuildingContext
(follow-up PR).

Summary:
Cleans up some of the dependencies on test code in the Makefile while building tools:
- Moves the test::RandomString, DBBaseTest::RandomString into Random
- Moves the test::RandomHumanReadableString into Random
- Moves the DestroyDir method into file_utils
- Moves the SetupSyncPointsToMockDirectIO into sync_point.
- Moves the FaultInjection Env and FS classes under env
These changes allow all of the tools to build without dependencies on test_util, thereby simplifying the build dependencies. By moving the FaultInjection code, the dependency in db_stress on different libraries for debug vs release was eliminated.
Tested both release and debug builds via Make and CMake for both static and shared libraries.
More work remains to clean up how the tools are built and remove some unnecessary dependencies. There is also more work that should be done to get the Makefile and CMake to align in their builds -- what is in the libraries and the sizes of the executables are different.

Summary:
Original author: jeffrey-xiao
If we are writing a global seqno for an ingested file, the range
tombstone metablock gets accessed and put into the cache during
ingestion preparation. At the time, the global seqno of the ingested
file has not yet been determined, so the cached block will not have a
global seqno. When the file is ingested and we read its range tombstone
metablock, it will be returned from the cache with no global seqno. In
that case, we use the actual seqnos stored in the range tombstones,
which are all zero, so the tombstones cover nothing.
This commit removes global_seqno_ variable from Block. When iterating
over a block, the global seqno for the block is determined by the
iterator instead of storing this mutable attribute in Block.
Additionally, this commit adds a regression test to check that keys are
deleted when ingesting a file with a global seqno and range deletion
tombstones.

Summary:
The current Env API encompasses both storage/file operations, as well as OS related operations. Most of the APIs return a Status, which does not have enough metadata about an error, such as whether its retry-able or not, scope (i.e fault domain) of the error etc., that may be required in order to properly handle a storage error. The file APIs also do not provide enough control over the IO SLA, such as timeout, prioritization, hinting about placement and redundancy etc.
This PR separates out the file/storage APIs from Env into a new FileSystem class. The APIs are updated to return an IOStatus with metadata about the error, as well as to take an IOOptions structure as input in order to allow more control over the IO.
The user can set both ```options.env``` and ```options.file_system``` to specify that RocksDB should use the former for OS related operations and the latter for storage operations. Internally, a ```CompositeEnvWrapper``` has been introduced that inherits from ```Env``` and redirects individual methods to either an ```Env``` implementation or the ```FileSystem``` as appropriate. When options are sanitized during ```DB::Open```, ```options.env``` is replaced with a newly allocated ```CompositeEnvWrapper``` instance if both env and file_system have been specified. This way, the rest of the RocksDB code can continue to function as before.
This PR also ports PosixEnv to the new API by splitting it into two - PosixEnv and PosixFileSystem. PosixEnv is defined as a sub-class of CompositeEnvWrapper, and threading/time functions are overridden with Posix specific implementations in order to avoid an extra level of indirection.
The ```CompositeEnvWrapper``` translates ```IOStatus``` return code to ```Status```, and sets the severity to ```kSoftError``` if the io_status is retryable. The error handling code in RocksDB can then recover the DB automatically.

Summary:
This is a new API added to db.h to allow for fetching all merge operands associated with a Key. The main motivation for this API is to support use cases where doing a full online merge is not necessary as it is performance sensitive. Example use-cases:
1. Update subset of columns and read subset of columns -
Imagine a SQL Table, a row is encoded as a K/V pair (as it is done in MyRocks). If there are many columns and users only updated one of them, we can use merge operator to reduce write amplification. While users only read one or two columns in the read query, this feature can avoid a full merging of the whole row, and save some CPU.
2. Updating very few attributes in a value which is a JSON-like document -
Updating one attribute can be done efficiently using merge operator, while reading back one attribute can be done more efficiently if we don't need to do a full merge.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
API :
Status GetMergeOperands(
const ReadOptions& options, ColumnFamilyHandle* column_family,
const Slice& key, PinnableSlice* merge_operands,
GetMergeOperandsOptions* get_merge_operands_options,
int* number_of_operands)
Example usage :
int size = 100;
int number_of_operands = 0;
std::vector<PinnableSlice> values(size);
GetMergeOperandsOptions merge_operands_info;
db_->GetMergeOperands(ReadOptions(), db_->DefaultColumnFamily(), "k1", values.data(), merge_operands_info, &number_of_operands);
Description :
Returns all the merge operands corresponding to the key. If the number of merge operands in DB is greater than merge_operands_options.expected_max_number_of_operands no merge operands are returned and status is Incomplete. Merge operands returned are in the order of insertion.
merge_operands-> Points to an array of at-least merge_operands_options.expected_max_number_of_operands and the caller is responsible for allocating it. If the status returned is Incomplete then number_of_operands will contain the total number of merge operands found in DB for key.

Summary:
The first key is used to defer reading the data block until this file gets to the top of merging iterator's heap. For short range scans, most files never make it to the top of the heap, so this change can reduce read amplification by a lot sometimes.
Consider the following workload. There are a few data streams (we'll be calling them "logs"), each stream consisting of a sequence of blobs (we'll be calling them "records"). Each record is identified by log ID and a sequence number within the log. RocksDB key is concatenation of log ID and sequence number (big endian). Reads are mostly relatively short range scans, each within a single log. Writes are mostly sequential for each log, but writes to different logs are randomly interleaved. Compactions are disabled; instead, when we accumulate a few tens of sst files, we create a new column family and start writing to it.
So, a typical sst file consists of a few ranges of blocks, each range corresponding to one log ID (we use FlushBlockPolicy to cut blocks at log boundaries). A typical read would go like this. First, iterator Seek() reads one block from each sst file. Then a series of Next()s move through one sst file (since writes to each log are mostly sequential) until the subiterator reaches the end of this log in this sst file; then Next() switches to the next sst file and reads sequentially from that, and so on. Often a range scan will only return records from a small number of blocks in small number of sst files; in this case, the cost of initial Seek() reading one block from each file may be bigger than the cost of reading the actually useful blocks.
Neither iterate_upper_bound nor bloom filters can prevent reading one block from each file in Seek(). But this PR can: if the index contains first key from each block, we don't have to read the block until this block actually makes it to the top of merging iterator's heap, so for short range scans we won't read any blocks from most of the sst files.
This PR does the deferred block loading inside value() call. This is not ideal: there's no good way to report an IO error from inside value(). As discussed with siying offline, it would probably be better to change InternalIterator's interface to explicitly fetch deferred value and get status. I'll do it in a separate PR.

Summary:
This is a feature to sample data-block compressibility and and report them as stats. 1 in N (tunable) blocks is sampled for compressibility using two algorithms:
1. lz4 or snappy for fast compression
2. zstd or zlib for slow but higher compression.
The stats are reported to the caller as raw-bytes and compressed-bytes. The block continues to be compressed for storage using the specified CompressionType.
The db_bench_tool how has a command line option for specifying the sampling rate. It's default value is 0 (no sampling). To test the overhead for a certain value, users can compare the performance of db_bench_tool, varying the sampling rate. It is unlikely to have a noticeable impact for high values like 20.

Summary:
Our previous approach was to train one compression dictionary per compaction, using the first output SST to train a dictionary, and then applying it on subsequent SSTs in the same compaction. While this was great for minimizing CPU/memory/I/O overhead, it did not achieve good compression ratios in practice. In our most promising potential use case, moderate reductions in a dictionary's scope make a major difference on compression ratio.
So, this PR changes compression dictionary to be scoped per-SST. It accepts the tradeoff during table building to use more memory and CPU. Important changes include:
- The `BlockBasedTableBuilder` has a new state when dictionary compression is in-use: `kBuffered`. In that state it accumulates uncompressed data in-memory whenever `Add` is called.
- After accumulating target file size bytes or calling `BlockBasedTableBuilder::Finish`, a `BlockBasedTableBuilder` moves to the `kUnbuffered` state. The transition (`EnterUnbuffered()`) involves sampling the buffered data, training a dictionary, and compressing/writing out all buffered data. In the `kUnbuffered` state, a `BlockBasedTableBuilder` behaves the same as before -- blocks are compressed/written out as soon as they fill up.
- Samples are now whole uncompressed data blocks, except the final sample may be a partial data block so we don't breach the user's configured `max_dict_bytes` or `zstd_max_train_bytes`. The dictionary trainer is supposed to work better when we pass it real units of compression. Previously we were passing 64-byte KV samples which was not realistic.

Summary:
We carry compression type and "cachable" variables for every block in the block cache, while they take well-known values. 8-byte is wasted for each block (2-byte for useful information but it takes 8 bytes because of padding). With this change, these two variables are removed.
The cachable information is only useful in the process of reading the block. We use other information to infer from it. For compressed blocks, the compression type is a part of the block content itself so we can get it from there.
Some code is slightly refactored so that the cachable information can flow better.
Another change is to only use class BlockContents for compressed block, and narrow the class Block to only be used for uncompressed blocks, including blocks in compressed block cache. This can make the Block class less confusing. It also saves tens of bytes for each block in compressed block cache.

Summary:
Previously, range tombstones were accumulated from every level, which
was necessary if a range tombstone in a higher level covered a key in a lower
level. However, RangeDelAggregator::AddTombstones's complexity is based on
the number of tombstones that are currently stored in it, which is wasteful in
the Get case, where we only need to know the highest sequence number of range
tombstones that cover the key from higher levels, and compute the highest covering
sequence number at the current level. This change introduces this optimization, and
removes the use of RangeDelAggregator from the Get path.
In the benchmark results, the following command was used to initialize the database:
```
./db_bench -db=/dev/shm/5k-rts -use_existing_db=false -benchmarks=filluniquerandom -write_buffer_size=1048576 -compression_type=lz4 -target_file_size_base=1048576 -max_bytes_for_level_base=4194304 -value_size=112 -key_size=16 -block_size=4096 -level_compaction_dynamic_level_bytes=true -num=5000000 -max_background_jobs=12 -benchmark_write_rate_limit=20971520 -range_tombstone_width=100 -writes_per_range_tombstone=100 -max_num_range_tombstones=50000 -bloom_bits=8
```
...and the following command was used to measure read throughput:
```
./db_bench -db=/dev/shm/5k-rts/ -use_existing_db=true -benchmarks=readrandom -disable_auto_compactions=true -num=5000000 -reads=100000 -threads=32
```
The filluniquerandom command was only run once, and the resulting database was used
to measure read performance before and after the PR. Both binaries were compiled with
`DEBUG_LEVEL=0`.
Readrandom results before PR:
```
readrandom : 4.544 micros/op 220090 ops/sec; 16.9 MB/s (63103 of 100000 found)
```
Readrandom results after PR:
```
readrandom : 11.147 micros/op 89707 ops/sec; 6.9 MB/s (63103 of 100000 found)
```
So it's actually slower right now, but this PR paves the way for future optimizations (see #4493).

Summary:
Add hash index support to data blocks, which helps to reduce the CPU utilization of point-lookup operations. This feature is backward compatible with the data block created without the hash index. It is disabled by default unless `BlockBasedTableOptions::data_block_index_type` is set to `data_block_index_type = kDataBlockBinaryAndHash.`
The DB size would be bigger with the hash index option as a hash table is added at the end of each data block. If the hash utilization ratio is 1:1, the space overhead is one byte per key. The hash table utilization ratio is adjustable using `BlockBasedTableOptions::data_block_hash_table_util_ratio`. A lower utilization ratio will improve more on the point-lookup efficiency, but take more space too.
