Summary:
**Summary:**
RocksDB uses a block cache to reduce IO and make queries more efficient. The block cache is based on the LRU algorithm (LRUCache) and keeps objects containing uncompressed data, such as Block, ParsedFullFilterBlock etc. It allows the user to configure a second level cache (rocksdb::SecondaryCache) to extend the primary block cache by holding items evicted from it. Some of the major RocksDB users, like MyRocks, use direct IO and would like to use a primary block cache for uncompressed data and a secondary cache for compressed data. The latter allows us to mitigate the loss of the Linux page cache due to direct IO.
This PR includes a concrete implementation of rocksdb::SecondaryCache that integrates with compression libraries such as LZ4 and implements an LRU cache to hold compressed blocks.
Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/9518
Test Plan:
In this PR, the lru_secondary_cache_test.cc includes the following tests:
1. The unit tests for the secondary cache with either compression or no compression, such as basic tests, fails tests.
2. The integration tests with both primary cache and this secondary cache .
**Follow Up:**
1. Statistics (e.g. compression ratio) will be added in another PR.
2. Once this implementation is ready, I will do some shadow testing and benchmarking with UDB to measure the impact.
