Summary:
RocksDB's `Cache` abstraction currently supports two priority levels for items: high (used for frequently accessed/highly valuable SST metablocks like index/filter blocks) and low (used for SST data blocks). Blobs are typically lower-value targets for caching than data blocks, since 1) with BlobDB, data blocks containing blob references conceptually form an index structure which has to be consulted before we can read the blob value, and 2) cached blobs represent only a single key-value, while cached data blocks generally contain multiple KVs. Since we would like to make it possible to use the same backing cache for the block cache and the blob cache, it would make sense to add a new, lower-than-low cache priority level (bottom level) for blobs so data blocks are prioritized over them.

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:
Many workloads have temporal locality, where recently written items are read back in a short period of time. When using remote file systems, this is inefficient since it involves network traffic and higher latencies. Because of this, we would like to support prepopulating the blob cache during flush.

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:
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:
The `bytes_read` returned by the current BlobSource interface is ambiguous. The uncompressed blob size is returned if the cache hits. The size of the blob read from disk, presumably the compressed version, is returned if the cache misses. Two differing semantics might cause ambiguity and consistency issues. For example, this inconsistency causes the assertion failure (T124246362 and its hot fix is https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/10249).
This goal is to require that the value of `byte read` always be an on-disk blob record size.

Summary:
This task is to fix assertion failures during the crash test runs. The cache entry size might not match value size because value size can include the on-disk (possibly compressed) size. Therefore, we removed the assertions.

Summary:
There is currently no caching mechanism for blobs, which is not ideal especially when the database resides on remote storage (where we cannot rely on the OS page cache). As part of this task, we would like to make it possible for the application to configure a blob cache.
In this task, we formally introduced the blob source to RocksDB. BlobSource is a new abstraction layer that provides universal access to blobs, regardless of whether they are in the blob cache, secondary cache, or (remote) storage. Depending on user settings, it always fetch blobs from multi-tier cache and storage with minimal cost.
Note: The new `MultiGetBlob()` implementation is not included in the current PR. To go faster, we aim to create a separate PR for it in parallel!

In this task, we added a new abstraction layer `BlobSource` to retrieve blobs from either blob cache or raw blob file. Note: For simplicity, the current PR only includes `GetBlob()`. `MultiGetBlob()` will be included in the next PR.
