Summary:
In some cases, we don't have to get really accurate number. Something like 10% off is fine, we can create a new option for that use case. In this case, we can calculate size for full files first, and avoid estimation inside SST files if full files got us a huge number. For example, if we already covered 100GB of data, we should be able to skip partial dives into 10 SST files of 30MB.

Summary:
The ObjectRegistry class replaces the Registrar and NewCustomObjects. Objects are registered with the registry by Type (the class must implement the static const char *Type() method).
This change is necessary for a few reasons:
- By having a class (rather than static template instances), the class can be passed between compilation units, meaning that objects could be registered and shared from a dynamic library with an executable.
- By having a class with instances, different units could have different objects registered. This could be useful if, for example, one Option allowed for a dynamic library and one did not.
When combined with some other PRs (being able to load shared libraries, a Configurable interface to configure objects to/from string), this code will allow objects in external shared libraries to be added to a RocksDB image at run-time, rather than requiring every new extension to be built into the main library and called explicitly by every program.

Summary:
RocksDB has historically stored uncompression dictionary objects in the block
cache as opposed to storing just the block contents. This neccesitated
evicting the object upon table close. With the new code, only the raw blocks
are stored in the cache, eliminating the need for eviction.
In addition, the patch makes the following improvements:
1) Compression dictionary blocks are now prefetched/pinned similarly to
index/filter blocks.
2) A copy operation got eliminated when the uncompression dictionary is
retrieved.
3) Errors related to retrieving the uncompression dictionary are propagated as
opposed to silently ignored.
Note: the patch temporarily breaks the compression dictionary evicition stats.
They will be fixed in a separate phase.

Summary:
Right now, users cannot take advantage of row cache, unless no snapshot is used, or Get() is repeated for the same snapshots. This limits the usage of row cache.
This change eliminate this restriction in some cases. If the snapshot used is newer than the largest sequence number in the file, and write callback function is not registered, the same row cache key is used as no snapshot is given. We still need the callback function restriction for now because the callback function may filter out different keys for different snapshots even if the snapshots are new.

Summary:
Currently, when the block cache is used for the filter block, it is not
really the block itself that is stored in the cache but a FilterBlockReader
object. Since this object is not pure data (it has, for instance, pointers that
might dangle, including in one case a back pointer to the TableReader), it's not
really sharable. To avoid the issues around this, the current code erases the
cache entries when the TableReader is closed (which, BTW, is not sufficient
since a concurrent TableReader might have picked up the object in the meantime).
Instead of doing this, the patch moves the FilterBlockReader out of the cache
altogether, and decouples the filter reader object from the filter block.
In particular, instead of the TableReader owning, or caching/pinning the
FilterBlockReader (based on the customer's settings), with the change the
TableReader unconditionally owns the FilterBlockReader, which in turn
owns/caches/pins the filter block. This change also enables us to reuse the code
paths historically used for data blocks for filters as well.
Note:
Eviction statistics for filter blocks are temporarily broken. We plan to fix this in a
separate phase.

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:
While the secondary is replaying after the primary, the primary may switch to a new MANIFEST. The secondary is already able to detect and follow the primary to the new MANIFEST. However, the current implementation has a bug, described as follows.
The new MANIFEST's first records have been generated by VersionSet::WriteSnapshot to describe the current state of the column families and the db as of the MANIFEST creation. Since the secondary instance has already finished recovering upon start, there is no need for the secondary to process these records. Actually, if the secondary were to replay these records, the secondary may end up adding the same SST files **again** to each column family, causing consistency checks done by VersionBuilder to fail. Therefore, we record the number of records to skip at the beginning of the new MANIFEST and ignore them.

Summary:
In regular RocksDB instance, `MemTable::earliest_seqno_` is "db sequence number at the time of creation". However, we cannot use the db sequence number to set the value of `MemTable::earliest_seqno_` for secondary instance, i.e. `DBImplSecondary` due to the logic of MANIFEST and WAL replay.
When replaying the log files of the primary, the secondary instance first replays MANIFEST and updates the db sequence number if necessary. Next, the secondary replays WAL files, creates new memtables if necessary and inserts key-value pairs into memtables. The following can occur when the db has two or more column families.
Assume the db has column family "default" and "cf1". At a certain in time, both "default" and "cf1" have data in memtables.
1. Primary triggers a flush and flushes "cf1". "default" is **not** flushed.
2. Secondary replays the MANIFEST updates its db sequence number to the latest value learned from the MANIFEST.
3. Secondary starts to replay WAL that contains the writes to "default". It is possible that the write batches' sequence numbers are smaller than the db sequence number. In this case, these write batches will be skipped, and these updates will not be visible to reader until "default" is later flushed.

Summary:
It's useful to be able to (optionally) associate key-value pairs with user-provided timestamps. This PR is an early effort towards this goal and continues the work of facebook#4942. A suite of new unit tests exist in DBBasicTestWithTimestampWithParam. Support for timestamp requires the user to provide timestamp as a slice in `ReadOptions` and `WriteOptions`. All timestamps of the same database must share the same length, format, etc. The format of the timestamp is the same throughout the same database, and the user is responsible for providing a comparator function (Comparator) to order the <key, timestamp> tuples. Once created, the format and length of the timestamp cannot change (at least for now).

```

Summary:
Currently, when the block cache is used for index blocks as well, it is
not really the index block that is stored in the cache but an
IndexReader object. Since this object is not pure data (it has, for
instance, pointers that might dangle), it's not really sharable. To
avoid the issues around this, the current code uses a dummy unique cache
key for each TableReader to store the IndexReader, and erases the
IndexReader entry when the TableReader is closed. Instead of doing this,
the new code moves the IndexReader out of the cache altogether. In
particular, instead of the TableReader owning, or caching/pinning the
IndexReader based on the customer's settings, the TableReader
unconditionally owns the IndexReader, which in turn owns/caches/pins
the index block (which is itself sharable and thus can be safely put in
the cache without any hacks).
Note: the change has two side effects:
1) Partitions of partitioned indexes no longer affect the read
amplification statistics.
2) Eviction statistics for index blocks are temporarily broken. We plan to fix
this in a separate phase.

Summary:
WritePrepared transactions when configured with two_write_queues=true offers higher throughput with unordered_write feature without however compromising the rocksdb guarantees. This is because it performs ordering among writes in a 2nd step that is not tied to memtable write speed. The 2nd step is naturally provided by 2PC when the commit phase does the ordering as well. Without 2PC, the 2nd step would only be provided when we use two_write_queues=true, where WritePrepared after performing the writes, in a 2nd step uses the 2nd queue to assign order to the writes.
The patch clarifies the need for two_write_queues=true in the HISTORY and inline comments of unordered_writes. Moreover it extends the stress tests of WritePrepared to unordred_write.

Summary:
Performing unordered writes in rocksdb when unordered_write option is set to true. When enabled the writes to memtable are done without joining any write thread. This offers much higher write throughput since the upcoming writes would not have to wait for the slowest memtable write to finish. The tradeoff is that the writes visible to a snapshot might change over time. If the application cannot tolerate that, it should implement its own mechanisms to work around that. Using TransactionDB with WRITE_PREPARED write policy is one way to achieve that. Doing so increases the max throughput by 2.2x without however compromising the snapshot guarantees.
The patch is prepared based on an original by siying
Existing unit tests are extended to include unordered_write option.
Benchmark Results:

With WAL
- Vanilla RocksDB: 78.6 MB/s
- WRITER_PREPARED with unordered_write: 177.8 MB/s (2.2x)
- unordered_write: 368.9 MB/s (4.7x with relaxed snapshot guarantees)
Without WAL
- Vanilla RocksDB: 111.3 MB/s
- WRITER_PREPARED with unordered_write: 259.3 MB/s MB/s (2.3x)
- unordered_write: 645.6 MB/s (5.8x with relaxed snapshot guarantees)
- WRITER_PREPARED with unordered_write disable concurrency control: 185.3 MB/s MB/s (2.35x)
Limitations:
- The feature is not yet extended to `max_successive_merges` > 0. The feature is also incompatible with `enable_pipelined_write` = true as well as with `allow_concurrent_memtable_write` = false.

Summary:
Previous code may call `~ColumnFamilyData` in `DBImpl::AtomicFlushMemTablesToOutputFiles` if the column family is dropped or `cfd->IsFlushPending() == false`. In `~ColumnFamilyData`, the db mutex is released briefly and re-acquired. This can cause correctness issue. The reason is as follows.
Assume there are more bg flush threads. After bg_flush_thr1 releases the db mutex, bg_flush_thr2 can grab it and pop an element from the flush queue. This will cause bg_flush_thr2 to accidentally pick some memtables which should have been picked by bg_flush_thr1. To make the matter worse, bg_flush_thr2 can clear `flush_requested_` flag for the memtable list, causing a subsequent call to `MemTableList::IsFlushPending()` by bg_flush_thr1 to return false, which is wrong.
The fix is to delay `ColumnFamilyData::Unref` and `~ColumnFamilyData` for column families not selected for flush until `AtomicFlushMemTablesToOutputFiles` returns. Furthermore, a bg flush thread should not clear `MemTableList::flush_requested_` in `MemTableList::PickMemtablesToFlush` unless atomic flush is not used **or** the memtable list does not have unpicked memtables.

Summary:
When reseek happens in merging iterator, reseeking a child iterator can be avoided if:
(1) the iterator represents imutable data
(2) reseek() to a larger key than the current key
(3) the current key of the child iterator is larger than the seek key
because it is guaranteed that the result will fall into the same position.
This optimization will be useful for use cases where users keep seeking to keys nearby in ascending order.

Summary:
Right now, DBIter::Next() always checks whether an entry is for the same user key as the previous entry to see whether the key should be hidden to the user. However, if previous entry's sequence number is 0, the check is not needed because 0 is the oldest possible sequence number.
We could extend it from seqnum 0 case to simply prev_seqno >= current_seqno. However, it is less robust with bug or unexpected situations, while the gain is relatively low. We can always extend it later when needed.
In a readseq benchmark with full formed LSM-tree, number of key comparisons called is reduced from 2.981 to 2.165. readseq against a fully compacted DB, no key comparison is called. Performance in this benchmark didn't show obvious improvement, which is expected because key comparisons only takes small percentage of CPU. But it may show up to be more effective if users have an expensive customized comparator.

Summary:
Part of compaction cpu goes to processing snapshot list, the larger the list the bigger the overhead. Although the lifetime of most of the snapshots is much shorter than the lifetime of compactions, the compaction conservatively operates on the list of snapshots that it initially obtained. This patch allows the snapshot list to be updated via a callback if the compaction is taking long. This should let the compaction to continue more efficiently with much smaller snapshot list.
For simplicity, to avoid the feature is disabled in two cases: i) When more than one sub-compaction are sharing the same snapshot list, ii) when Range Delete is used in which the range delete aggregator has its own copy of snapshot list.
This fixes the reverted https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/5099 issue with range deletes.

Summary:
Right now, when Seek() is called again, RocksDB always does a binary search against the files and index blocks, even if they end up with the same file/block. Improve it as following:
1. in LevelIterator, reseek first try to check the boundary of the current file. If it falls into the same file, skip the binary search to find the file
2. in block based table iterator, reseek skip to reseek the iterator block if the seek key is larger than the current key and lower than the index key (boundary of the current block and the next block).

Summary:
Sometimes, users might make mistake of not releasing snapshots before closing the DB. This is undocumented use of RocksDB and the behavior is unknown. We return DB::Close() to provide a way to check it for the users. Aborted() will be returned to users when they call DB::Close().

Summary:
Improve the iterators performance when the user explicitly sets the readahead size via `ReadOptions.readahead_size`.
1. Stop creating new table readers when the user explicitly sets readahead size.
2. Make use of an internal buffer based on `FilePrefetchBuffer` instead of using `ReadaheadRandomAccessFileReader`, to handle the user readahead requests (for both buffered and direct io cases).
3. Add `readahead_size` to db_bench.
**Benchmarks:**
https://gist.github.com/sagar0/53693edc320a18abeaeca94ca32f5737
For 1 MB readahead, Buffered IO performance improves by 28% and Direct IO performance improves by 50%.
For 512KB readahead, Buffered IO performance improves by 30% and Direct IO performance improves by 67%.
**Test Plan:**
Updated `DBIteratorTest.ReadAhead` test to make sure that:
- no new table readers are created for iterators on setting ReadOptions.readahead_size
- At least "readahead" number of bytes are actually getting read on each iterator read.
TODO later:
- Use similar logic for compactions as well.
- This ties in nicely with #4052 and paves the way for removing ReadaheadRandomAcessFile later.
