Summary:
We slow down data into the database to the rate of options.delayed_write_rate (a new option) with this patch.
The thread synchronization approach I take is to still synchronize write controller by DB mutex and GetDelay() is inside DB mutex. Try to minimize the frequency of getting time in GetDelay(). I verified it through db_bench and it seems to work
hard_rate_limit is deprecated.
options.delayed_write_rate is still not dynamically changeable. Need to work on it as a follow-up.
Test Plan: Add new unit tests in db_test

Summary:
The usage I'm fixing here caused trouble on Fedora 21 when
compiling with the current gcc version 4.9.2 20150212 (Red Hat 4.9.2-6) (GCC):
db/write_controller_test.cc: In member function ‘virtual void rocksdb::WriteControllerTest_SanityTest_Test::TestBody()’:
db/write_controller_test.cc:23:165: error: converting ‘false’ to pointer type for argument 1 of ‘char testing::internal::IsNullLiteralHelper(testing::internal::Secret*)’ [-Werror=conversion-null]
ASSERT_EQ(false, controller.IsStopped());
^
This change was induced mechanically via:
git grep -l -E 'ASSERT_EQ\(false'|xargs perl -pi -e 's/ASSERT_EQ\(false, /ASSERT_FALSE(/'
git grep -l -E 'ASSERT_EQ\(true'|xargs perl -pi -e 's/ASSERT_EQ\(true, /ASSERT_TRUE(/'
Except for the three in utilities/backupable/backupable_db_test.cc for which
I ended up reformatting (joining lines) in the result.
As for why this problem is exhibited with that version of gcc, and none
of the others I've used (from 4.8.1 through gcc-5.0.0 and newer), I suspect
it's a bug in F21's gcc that has been fixed in gcc-5.0.0.
Test Plan:
"make" now succeed on Fedora 21

Summary:
Our existing test notation is very similar to what is used in gtest. It makes it easy to adopt what is different.
In this diff I modify existing [[ https://code.google.com/p/googletest/wiki/Primer#Test_Fixtures:_Using_the_Same_Data_Configuration_for_Multiple_Te | test fixture ]] classes to inherit from `testing::Test`. Also for unit tests that use fixture class, `TEST` is replaced with `TEST_F` as required in gtest.
There are several custom `main` functions in our existing tests. To make this transition easier, I modify all `main` functions to fallow gtest notation. But eventually we can remove them and use implementation of `main` that gtest provides.
```lang=bash
% cat ~/transform
#!/bin/sh
files=$(git ls-files '*test\.cc')
for file in $files
do
if grep -q "rocksdb::test::RunAllTests()" $file
then
if grep -Eq '^class \w+Test {' $file
then
perl -pi -e 's/^(class \w+Test) {/${1}: public testing::Test {/g' $file
perl -pi -e 's/^(TEST)/${1}_F/g' $file
fi
perl -pi -e 's/(int main.*\{)/${1}::testing::InitGoogleTest(&argc, argv);/g' $file
perl -pi -e 's/rocksdb::test::RunAllTests/RUN_ALL_TESTS/g' $file
fi
done
% sh ~/transform
% make format
```
Second iteration of this diff contains only scripted changes.
Third iteration contains manual changes to fix last errors and make it compilable.
Test Plan:
Build and notice no errors.
```lang=bash
% USE_CLANG=1 make check -j55
```
Tests are still testing.

Summary:
Introducing WriteController, which is a source of truth about per-DB write delays. Let's define an DB epoch as a period where there are no flushes and compactions (i.e. new epoch is started when flush or compaction finishes). Each epoch can either:
* proceed with all writes without delay
* delay all writes by fixed time
* stop all writes
The three modes are recomputed at each epoch change (flush, compaction), rather than on every write (which is currently the case).
When we have a lot of column families, our current pull behavior adds a big overhead, since we need to loop over every column family for every write. With new push model, overhead on Write code-path is minimal.
This is just the start. Next step is to also take care of stalls introduced by slow memtable flushes. The final goal is to eliminate function MakeRoomForWrite(), which currently needs to be called for every column family by every write.
Test Plan: make check for now. I'll add some unit tests later. Also, perf test.
