Summary:
I recently discovered that block cache keys are slightly lower
quality than previously thought, because my stress testing tool failed
to simulate the effect of DB ID differences. This change updates the
tool and gives us data to guide future developments. (No changes to
production code here and now.)
Nevertheless, the following promise still holds
```
// In fact, if our SST files are all < 4TB (see
// BlockBasedTable::kMaxFileSizeStandardEncoding), then SST files generated
// in a single process are guaranteed to have unique cache keys, unless/until
// number session ids * max file number = 2**86 ...
```
because although different DB IDs could cause collision in file number
and offset data, that would have to be using the same DB session (lower)
to cause a block cache key collision, which is not possible in the same
process. (A session is associated with only one DB ID.)
This change fixes cache_bench -stress_cache_key to set and reset DB IDs in
a parameterized way to evaluate the effect. Previous results assumed to
be representative (using -sck_keep_bits=43):
```
15 collisions after 15 x 90 days, est 90 days between (1.03763e+20 corrected)
```
or expected collision on a single machine every 104 billion billion
days (see "corrected" value).
After accounting for DB IDs, test never really changing, intermediate, and very
frequently changing (using default -sck_db_count=100):
```
-sck_newdb_nreopen=1000000000:
15 collisions after 2 x 90 days, est 12 days between (1.38351e+19 corrected)
-sck_newdb_nreopen=10000:
17 collisions after 2 x 90 days, est 10.5882 days between (1.22074e+19 corrected)
-sck_newdb_nreopen=100:
19 collisions after 2 x 90 days, est 9.47368 days between (1.09224e+19 corrected)
```
or roughly 10x more often than previously thought (still extremely if
not impossibly rare), and better than random base cache keys
(with -sck_randomize), though < 10x better than random:
```
31 collisions after 1 x 90 days, est 2.90323 days between (3.34719e+18 corrected)
```
If we simply fixed this by ignoring DB ID for cache keys, we would
potentially have a shortage of entropy for some cases, such as small
file numbers and offsets (e.g. many short-lived processes each using
SstFileWriter to create a small file), because existing DB session IDs
only provide ~103 bits of entropy. We could upgrade the entropy in DB
session IDs to accommodate, but it's not known what all would be
affected by changing from 20 digit session IDs to something larger.
Instead, my plan is to
1) Move to block cache keys derived from SST unique IDs (so that we can
derive block cache keys from manifest data without reading file on
storage), and show no significant regression in expected collision
rate.
2) Generate better SST unique IDs in format_version=6 (https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/9058),
which should have ~100x lower expected/predicted collision rate based
on simulations with this stress test:
```
./cache_bench -stress_cache_key -sck_keep_bits=39 -sck_newdb_nreopen=100 -sck_footer_unique_id
...
15 collisions after 19 x 90 days, est 114 days between (2.10293e+21 corrected)
```

Summary:
To help service owners to manage their memory budget effectively, we have been working towards counting all major memory users inside RocksDB towards a single global memory limit (see e.g. https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/wiki/Write-Buffer-Manager#cost-memory-used-in-memtable-to-block-cache). The global limit is specified by the capacity of the block-based table's block cache, and is technically implemented by inserting dummy entries ("reservations") into the block cache. The goal of this task is to support charging the memory usage of the new blob cache against this global memory limit when the backing cache of the blob cache and the block cache are different.

Summary:
RocksDB supports a two-level cache hierarchy (see https://rocksdb.org/blog/2021/05/27/rocksdb-secondary-cache.html), where items evicted from the primary cache can be spilled over to the secondary cache, or items from the secondary cache can be promoted to the primary one. We have a CacheLib-based non-volatile secondary cache implementation that can be used to improve read latencies and reduce the amount of network bandwidth when using distributed file systems. In addition, we have recently implemented a compressed secondary cache that can be used as a replacement for the OS page cache when e.g. direct I/O is used. The goals of this task are to add support for using a secondary cache with the blob cache and to measure the potential performance gains using `db_bench`.

Summary:
This is a prototype of a partially lock-free version of ClockCache. Roughly speaking, reads are lock-free and writes are lock-based:
- Lookup is lock-free.
- Release is lock-free, unless (i) no references to the element are left and (ii) it was marked for deletion or ``erase_if_last_ref`` is set.
- Insert and Erase still use a per-shard lock.

Summary:
ClockCache is still in experimental stage, and currently fails some pre-release fbcode tests. See https://www.internalfb.com/diff/D37772011. API calls to construct ClockCache are done via the function NewClockCache. For now, NewClockCache calls will return an LRUCache (with appropriate arguments), which is stable.
The idea that NewClockCache returns nullptr was also floated, but this would be interpreted as unsupported cache, and a default LRUCache would be constructed instead, potentially causing a performance regression that is harder to identify.
A new version of the NewClockCache function was created for our internal tests.

Summary:
The blob cache enables an optimization on the read path: when a blob is found in the cache, we can avoid copying it into the buffer provided by the application. Instead, we can simply transfer ownership of the cache handle to the target `PinnableSlice`. (Note: this relies on the `Cleanable` interface, which is implemented by `PinnableSlice`.)
This has the potential to save a lot of CPU, especially with large blob values.

Summary:
When an element is first inserted into the ClockCache, it is now assigned either medium or high clock priority, depending on whether its cache priority is low or high, respectively. This is a variant of LRUCache's midpoint insertions. The main difference is that LRUCache can specify the allocated capacity for high-priority elements via the ``high_pri_pool_ratio`` parameter. Contrarily, in ClockCache, low- and high-priority elements compete for all cache slots, and one group can take over the other (of course, it takes more low-priority insertions to push out high-priority elements). However, just as LRUCache, ClockCache provides the following guarantee: a high-priority element will not be evicted before a low-priority element that was inserted earlier in time.

The first one is an off-by-one error: the desired number of table slots is the real number ``capacity / (kLoadFactor * handle_charge)``, which should not be rounded down.

Summary:
This is the initial step in the development of a lock-free clock cache. This PR includes the base hash table design (which we mostly ported over from FastLRUCache) and the clock eviction algorithm. Importantly, it's still _not_ lock-free---all operations use a shard lock. Besides the locking, there are other features left as future work:
- Remove keys from the handles. Instead, use 128-bit bijective hashes of them for handle comparisons, probing (we need two 32-bit hashes of the key for double hashing) and sharding (we need one 6-bit hash).
- Remove the clock_usage_ field, which is updated on every lookup. Even if it were atomically updated, it could cause memory invalidations across cores.
- Middle insertions into the clock list.
- A test that exercises the clock eviction policy.
- Update the Java API of ClockCache and Java calls to C++.
Along the way, we improved the code and comments quality of FastLRUCache. These changes are relatively minor.

Summary:
In FastLRUCache, we replace the current chained per-shard hash table by an open-addressing hash table. In particular, this allows us to preallocate all handles.
Because all handles are preallocated, this implementation doesn't support strict_capacity_limit = false (i.e., allowing insertions beyond the predefined capacity). This clashes with current assumptions of some tests, namely two tests in cache_test and the crash tests. We have disabled these for now.

* Fix linking with fbcode compiler (needs ROCKSDB_NO_FBCODE=1 currently)

Summary:
Especially after updating to C++17, I don't see a compelling case for
*requiring* any folly components in RocksDB. I was able to purge the existing
hard dependencies, and it can be quite difficult to strip out non-trivial components
from folly for use in RocksDB. (The prospect of doing that on F14 has changed
my mind on the best approach here.)
But this change creates an optional integration where we can plug in
components from folly at compile time, starting here with F14FastMap to replace
std::unordered_map when possible (probably no public APIs for example). I have
replaced the biggest CPU users of std::unordered_map with compile-time
pluggable UnorderedMap which will use F14FastMap when USE_FOLLY is set.
USE_FOLLY is always set in the Meta-internal buck build, and a simulation of
that is in the Makefile for public CI testing. A full folly build is not needed, but
checking out the full folly repo is much simpler for getting the dependency,
and anything else we might want to optionally integrate in the future.
Some picky details:
* I don't think the distributed mutex stuff is actually used, so it was easy to remove.
* I implemented an alternative to `folly::constexpr_log2` (which is much easier
in C++17 than C++11) so that I could pull out the hard dependencies on
`ConstexprMath.h`
* I had to add noexcept move constructors/operators to some types to make
F14's complainUnlessNothrowMoveAndDestroy check happy, and I added a
macro to make that easier in some common cases.
* Updated Meta-internal buck build to use folly F14Map (always)

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.

Summary:
Drop support for some old compilers by requiring C++17 standard
(or higher). See https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/9388
First modification based on this is to remove some conditional compilation in slice.h (also
better for ODR)
Also in this PR:
* Fix some Makefile formatting that seems to affect ASSERT_STATUS_CHECKED config in
some cases
* Add c_test to NON_PARALLEL_TEST in Makefile
* Fix a clang-analyze reported "potential leak" in lru_cache_test
* Better "compatibility" definition of DEFINE_uint32 for old versions of gflags
* Fix a linking problem with shared libraries in Makefile (`./random_test: error while loading shared libraries: librocksdb.so.6.29: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory`)
* Always set ROCKSDB_SUPPORT_THREAD_LOCAL and use thread_local (from C++11)
* TODO in later PR: clean up that obsolete flag
* Fix a cosmetic typo in c.h (https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/9488)
Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/9481
Test Plan:
CircleCI config substantially updated.
* Upgrade to latest Ubuntu images for each release
* Generally prefer Ubuntu 20, but keep a couple Ubuntu 16 builds with oldest supported
compilers, to ensure compatibility
* Remove .circleci/cat_ignore_eagain except for Ubuntu 16 builds, because this is to work
around a kernel bug that should not affect anything but Ubuntu 16.
* Remove designated gcc-9 build, because the default linux build now uses GCC 9 from
Ubuntu 20.
* Add some `apt-key add` to fix some apt "couldn't be verified" errors
* Generally drop SKIP_LINK=1; work-around no longer needed
* Generally `add-apt-repository` before `apt-get update` as manual testing indicated the
reverse might not work.
Travis:
* Use gcc-7 by default (remove specific gcc-7 and gcc-4.8 builds)
* TODO in later PR: fix s390x "Assembler messages: Error: invalid switch -march=z14" failure
AppVeyor:
* Completely dropped because we are dropping VS2015 support and CircleCI covers
VS >= 2017
Also local testing with old gflags (out of necessity when using ROCKSDB_NO_FBCODE=1).

Summary:
This change standardizes on a new 16-byte cache key format for
block cache (incl compressed and secondary) and persistent cache (but
not table cache and row cache).
The goal is a really fast cache key with practically ideal stability and
uniqueness properties without external dependencies (e.g. from FileSystem).
A fixed key size of 16 bytes should enable future optimizations to the
concurrent hash table for block cache, which is a heavy CPU user /
bottleneck, but there appears to be measurable performance improvement
even with no changes to LRUCache.
This change replaces a lot of disjointed and ugly code handling cache
keys with calls to a simple, clean new internal API (cache_key.h).
(Preserving the old cache key logic under an option would be very ugly
and likely negate the performance gain of the new approach. Complete
replacement carries some inherent risk, but I think that's acceptable
with sufficient analysis and testing.)
The scheme for encoding new cache keys is complicated but explained
in cache_key.cc.
Also: EndianSwapValue is moved to math.h to be next to other bit
operations. (Explains some new include "math.h".) ReverseBits operation
added and unit tests added to hash_test for both.
Fixes https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/7405 (presuming a root cause)
Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/9126
Test Plan:
### Basic correctness
Several tests needed updates to work with the new functionality, mostly
because we are no longer relying on filesystem for stable cache keys
so table builders & readers need more context info to agree on cache
keys. This functionality is so core, a huge number of existing tests
exercise the cache key functionality.
### Performance
Create db with
`TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -bloom_bits=10 -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=3000000 -partition_index_and_filters`
And test performance with
`TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -readonly -use_existing_db -bloom_bits=10 -benchmarks=readrandom -num=3000000 -duration=30 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks -cache_size=250000 -threads=4`
using DEBUG_LEVEL=0 and simultaneous before & after runs.
Before ops/sec, avg over 100 runs: 121924
After ops/sec, avg over 100 runs: 125385 (+2.8%)
### Collision probability
I have built a tool, ./cache_bench -stress_cache_key to broadly simulate host-wide cache activity
over many months, by making some pessimistic simplifying assumptions:
* Every generated file has a cache entry for every byte offset in the file (contiguous range of cache keys)
* All of every file is cached for its entire lifetime
We use a simple table with skewed address assignment and replacement on address collision
to simulate files coming & going, with quite a variance (super-Poisson) in ages. Some output
with `./cache_bench -stress_cache_key -sck_keep_bits=40`:
```
Total cache or DBs size: 32TiB Writing 925.926 MiB/s or 76.2939TiB/day
Multiply by 9.22337e+18 to correct for simulation losses (but still assume whole file cached)
```
These come from default settings of 2.5M files per day of 32 MB each, and
`-sck_keep_bits=40` means that to represent a single file, we are only keeping 40 bits of
the 128-bit cache key. With file size of 2\*\*25 contiguous keys (pessimistic), our simulation
is about 2\*\*(128-40-25) or about 9 billion billion times more prone to collision than reality.
More default assumptions, relatively pessimistic:
* 100 DBs in same process (doesn't matter much)
* Re-open DB in same process (new session ID related to old session ID) on average
every 100 files generated
* Restart process (all new session IDs unrelated to old) 24 times per day
After enough data, we get a result at the end:
```
(keep 40 bits) 17 collisions after 2 x 90 days, est 10.5882 days between (9.76592e+19 corrected)
```
If we believe the (pessimistic) simulation and the mathematical generalization, we would need to run a billion machines all for 97 billion days to expect a cache key collision. To help verify that our generalization ("corrected") is robust, we can make our simulation more precise with `-sck_keep_bits=41` and `42`, which takes more running time to get enough data:
```
(keep 41 bits) 16 collisions after 4 x 90 days, est 22.5 days between (1.03763e+20 corrected)
(keep 42 bits) 19 collisions after 10 x 90 days, est 47.3684 days between (1.09224e+20 corrected)
```
The generalized prediction still holds. With the `-sck_randomize` option, we can see that we are beating "random" cache keys (except offsets still non-randomized) by a modest amount (roughly 20x less collision prone than random), which should make us reasonably comfortable even in "degenerate" cases:
```
197 collisions after 1 x 90 days, est 0.456853 days between (4.21372e+18 corrected)
```
I've run other tests to validate other conditions behave as expected, never behaving "worse than random" unless we start chopping off structured data.

Summary:
Note: This PR is the 4th part of a bigger PR stack (https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/9073) and will rebase/merge only after the first three PRs (https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/9070, https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/9071, https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/9130) merge.
**Context:**
Similar to https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/8428, this PR is to track memory usage during (new) Bloom Filter (i.e,FastLocalBloom) and Ribbon Filter (i.e, Ribbon128) construction, moving toward the goal of [single global memory limit using block cache capacity](https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/wiki/Projects-Being-Developed#improving-memory-efficiency). It also constrains the size of the banding portion of Ribbon Filter during construction by falling back to Bloom Filter if that banding is, at some point, larger than the available space in the cache under `LRUCacheOptions::strict_capacity_limit=true`.
The option to turn on this feature is `BlockBasedTableOptions::reserve_table_builder_memory = true` which by default is set to `false`. We [decided](https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/9073#discussion_r741548409) not to have separate option for separate memory user in table building therefore their memory accounting are all bundled under one general option.
**Summary:**
- Reserved/released cache for creation/destruction of three main memory users with the passed-in `FilterBuildingContext::cache_res_mgr` during filter construction:
- hash entries (i.e`hash_entries`.size(), we bucket-charge hash entries during insertion for performance),
- banding (Ribbon Filter only, `bytes_coeff_rows` +`bytes_result_rows` + `bytes_backtrack`),
- final filter (i.e, `mutable_buf`'s size).
- Implementation details: in order to use `CacheReservationManager::CacheReservationHandle` to account final filter's memory, we have to store the `CacheReservationManager` object and `CacheReservationHandle` for final filter in `XXPH3BitsFilterBuilder` as well as explicitly delete the filter bits builder when done with the final filter in block based table.
- Added option fo run `filter_bench` with this memory reservation feature
Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/9073
Test Plan:
- Added new tests in `db_bloom_filter_test` to verify filter construction peak cache reservation under combination of `BlockBasedTable::Rep::FilterType` (e.g, `kFullFilter`, `kPartitionedFilter`), `BloomFilterPolicy::Mode`(e.g, `kFastLocalBloom`, `kStandard128Ribbon`, `kDeprecatedBlock`) and `BlockBasedTableOptions::reserve_table_builder_memory`
- To address the concern for slow test: tests with memory reservation under `kFullFilter` + `kStandard128Ribbon` and `kPartitionedFilter` take around **3000 - 6000 ms** and others take around **1500 - 2000 ms**, in total adding **20000 - 25000 ms** to the test suit running locally
- Added new test in `bloom_test` to verify Ribbon Filter fallback on large banding in FullFilter
- Added test in `filter_bench` to verify that this feature does not significantly slow down Bloom/Ribbon Filter construction speed. Local result averaged over **20** run as below:
- FastLocalBloom
- baseline `./filter_bench -impl=2 -quick -runs 20 | grep 'Build avg'`:
- **Build avg ns/key: 29.56295** (DEBUG_LEVEL=1), **29.98153** (DEBUG_LEVEL=0)
- new feature (expected to be similar as above)`./filter_bench -impl=2 -quick -runs 20 -reserve_table_builder_memory=true | grep 'Build avg'`:
- **Build avg ns/key: 30.99046** (DEBUG_LEVEL=1), **30.48867** (DEBUG_LEVEL=0)
- new feature of RibbonFilter with fallback (expected to be similar as above) `./filter_bench -impl=2 -quick -runs 20 -reserve_table_builder_memory=true -strict_capacity_limit=true | grep 'Build avg'` :
- **Build avg ns/key: 31.146975** (DEBUG_LEVEL=1), **30.08165** (DEBUG_LEVEL=0)
- Ribbon128
- baseline `./filter_bench -impl=3 -quick -runs 20 | grep 'Build avg'`:
- **Build avg ns/key: 129.17585** (DEBUG_LEVEL=1), **130.5225** (DEBUG_LEVEL=0)
- new feature (expected to be similar as above) `./filter_bench -impl=3 -quick -runs 20 -reserve_table_builder_memory=true | grep 'Build avg' `:
- **Build avg ns/key: 131.61645** (DEBUG_LEVEL=1), **132.98075** (DEBUG_LEVEL=0)
- new feature of RibbonFilter with fallback (expected to be a lot faster than above due to fallback) `./filter_bench -impl=3 -quick -runs 20 -reserve_table_builder_memory=true -strict_capacity_limit=true | grep 'Build avg'` :
- **Build avg ns/key: 52.032965** (DEBUG_LEVEL=1), **52.597825** (DEBUG_LEVEL=0)
- And the warning message of `"Cache reservation for Ribbon filter banding failed due to cache full"` is indeed logged to console.

Summary:
We have three layers of block cache that often use the same key
but map to different physical data:
* BlockBasedTableOptions::block_cache
* BlockBasedTableOptions::block_cache_compressed
* BlockBasedTableOptions::persistent_cache
If any two of these happen to share an underlying implementation and key
space (insertion into one shows up in another), then memory safety is
broken. The simplest case is block_cache == block_cache_compressed.
(Credit mrambacher for asking about this case in a review.)
With this change, we explicitly check for overlap and preemptively and
safely fail with a Status code.

Context:
pdillinger brought up a good [point](https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/9073#discussion_r741478309) about lacking RAII support for per cache reservation in `CacheReservationManager` when reviewing https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/9073.
To summarize the discussion, the current API `CacheReservationManager::UpdateCacheReservation()` requires callers to explicitly calculate and pass in a correct`new_mem_used` to release a cache reservation (if they don't want to rely on the clean-up during `CacheReservationManager`'s destruction - such as they want to release it earlier).
While this implementation has convenience in some use-case such as `WriteBufferManager`, where [reservation](https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/blob/main/memtable/write_buffer_manager.cc#L69-L91) and [release](https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/blob/main/memtable/write_buffer_manager.cc#L109-L129) amounts do not necessarily correspond symmetrically and thus a flexible `new_mem_used` inputing is needed, it can be prone to caller's calculation error as well as cause a mass of codes in releasing cache in other use-case such as filter construction, where reservation and release amounts do correspond symmetrically and many code paths requiring a cache release, as [pointed](https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/9073#discussion_r741478309) out by pdillinger.
Therefore we decided to provide a new API in `CacheReservationManager` to update reservation with better RAII support for per cache reservation, using a handle to manage the life time of that particular cache reservation.
- Added a new class `CacheReservationHandle`
- Added a new API `CacheReservationManager::MakeCacheReservation()` that outputs a `CacheReservationHandle` for managing the reservation
- Updated class comments to clarify two different cache reservation methods

Summary:
Note: This PR is the 2nd PR of a bigger PR stack (https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/9073).
Context:
`CacheReservationManager::UpdateCacheReservation(std::size_t new_memory_used)` accepts an accumulated total memory used (e.g, used 10MB so far) instead of usage change (e.g, increase by 5 MB, decrease by 5 MB). It has benefits including consolidating API for increase and decrease as described in https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/8506.
However, not every `CacheReservationManager` user keeps track of this accumulated total memory usage. For example, Bloom/Ribbon Filter construction (e.g, [here](822d729fcd/table/block_based/filter_policy.cc (L587)) in https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/9073) does not while WriteBufferManager and compression dictionary buffering do.
Considering future users might or might not keep track of this counter and implementing this counter within `CacheReservationManager` is easy due to the passed-in `std::size_t new_memory_used` in calling `CacheReservationManager::UpdateCacheReservation(std::size_t new_memory_used)`, it is proposed to add a new API `CacheReservationManager::GetTotalMemoryUsage()`.
As noted in the API comments, since `CacheReservationManager` is NOT thread-safe, external synchronization is
needed in calling `UpdateCacheReservation()` if you want `GetTotalMemoryUsed()` returns the indeed latest memory used.
- Added and updated private counter `memory_used_` every time `CacheReservationManager::UpdateCacheReservation(std::size_t new_memory_used)` is called regardless if the call returns non-okay status
- Added `CacheReservationManager::GetTotalMemoryUsage()` to return `memory_used_`

Summary:
Currently, if Secondary Cache is provided to the lru cache, it is used by default. We add CacheTier to advanced_options.h to describe the cache tier we used. Add a `lowest_used_cache_tier` option to `DBOptions` (immutable) and pass it to BlockBasedTableReader to decide if secondary cache will be used or not. By default it is `CacheTier::kNonVolatileTier`, which means, we always use both block cache (kVolatileTier) and secondary cache (kNonVolatileTier). By set it to `CacheTier::kVolatileTier`, the DB will not use the secondary cache.

Summary:
Background: Cache warming up will cause potential read performance degradation due to reading blocks from storage to the block cache. Since in production, the workload and access pattern to a certain DB is stable, it is a potential solution to dump out the blocks belonging to a certain DB to persist storage (e.g., to a file) and bulk-load the blocks to Secondary cache before the DB is relaunched. For example, when migrating a DB form host A to host B, it will take a short period of time, the access pattern to blocks in the block cache will not change much. It is efficient to dump out the blocks of certain DB, migrate to the destination host and insert them to the Secondary cache before we relaunch the DB.
Design: we introduce the interface of CacheDumpWriter and CacheDumpRead for user to store the blocks dumped out from block cache. RocksDB will encode all the information and send the string to the writer. User can implement their own writer it they want. CacheDumper and CacheLoad are introduced to save the blocks and load the blocks respectively.
