Summary: In concurrent memtable insert case, updating counters in MemTable::Add() can count for 5% CPU usage. By batch all the counters and update in the end of the write batch, the CPU overheads are overhead in the use cases where more than one key is updated in one write batch.
Test Plan:
Write throughput increases 12% with this benchmark setting:

Summary:
This diff is built on top of WriteBatch modification: https://reviews.facebook.net/D54093 and adds the required functionality to rocksdb core necessary for rocksdb to support 2PC.
modfication of DBImpl::WriteImpl()
- added two arguments *uint64_t log_used = nullptr, uint64_t log_ref = 0;
- *log_used is an output argument which will return the log number which the incoming batch was inserted into, 0 if no WAL insert took place.
- log_ref is a supplied log_number which all memtables inserted into will reference after the batch insert takes place. This number will reside in 'FindMinPrepLogReferencedByMemTable()' until all Memtables insertinto have flushed.
- Recovery/writepath is now aware of prepared batches and commit and rollback markers.
Test Plan: There is currently no test on this diff. All testing of this functionality takes place in the Transaction layer/diff but I will add some testing.

Summary:
This diff adds support for concurrent adds to the skiplist memtable
implementations. Memory allocation is made thread-safe by the addition of
a spinlock, with small per-core buffers to avoid contention. Concurrent
memtable writes are made via an additional method and don't impose a
performance overhead on the non-concurrent case, so parallelism can be
selected on a per-batch basis.
Write thread synchronization is an increasing bottleneck for higher levels
of concurrency, so this diff adds --enable_write_thread_adaptive_yield
(default off). This feature causes threads joining a write batch
group to spin for a short time (default 100 usec) using sched_yield,
rather than going to sleep on a mutex. If the timing of the yield calls
indicates that another thread has actually run during the yield then
spinning is avoided. This option improves performance for concurrent
situations even without parallel adds, although it has the potential to
increase CPU usage (and the heuristic adaptation is not yet mature).
Parallel writes are not currently compatible with
inplace updates, update callbacks, or delete filtering.
Enable it with --allow_concurrent_memtable_write (and
--enable_write_thread_adaptive_yield). Parallel memtable writes
are performance neutral when there is no actual parallelism, and in
my experiments (SSD server-class Linux and varying contention and key
sizes for fillrandom) they are always a performance win when there is
more than one thread.
Statistics are updated earlier in the write path, dropping the number
of DB mutex acquisitions from 2 to 1 for almost all cases.
This diff was motivated and inspired by Yahoo's cLSM work. It is more
conservative than cLSM: RocksDB's write batch group leader role is
preserved (along with all of the existing flush and write throttling
logic) and concurrent writers are blocked until all memtable insertions
have completed and the sequence number has been advanced, to preserve
linearizability.
My test config is "db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -threads=$T
-batch_size=1 -memtablerep=skip_list -value_size=100 --num=1000000/$T
-level0_slowdown_writes_trigger=9999 -level0_stop_writes_trigger=9999
-disable_auto_compactions --max_write_buffer_number=8
-max_background_flushes=8 --disable_wal --write_buffer_size=160000000
--block_size=16384 --allow_concurrent_memtable_write" on a two-socket
Xeon E5-2660 @ 2.2Ghz with lots of memory and an SSD hard drive. With 1
thread I get ~440Kops/sec. Peak performance for 1 socket (numactl
-N1) is slightly more than 1Mops/sec, at 16 threads. Peak performance
across both sockets happens at 30 threads, and is ~900Kops/sec, although
with fewer threads there is less performance loss when the system has
background work.

3. MergeIteratorBuilder is created to incrementally build the tree of internal iterators. It is passed to mem table list and version set and add iterators to it.
Limitations:
(1) Only DB::NewIterator() without tailing uses the arena. Other cases, including readonly DB and compactions are still from malloc
(2) Two level iterator itself is allocated in arena, but not iterators inside it.

Summary:
= Major Changes =
* Add a new mem-table representation, HashCuckooRep, which is based cuckoo hash.
Cuckoo hash uses multiple hash functions. This allows each key to have multiple
possible locations in the mem-table.
- Put: When insert a key, it will try to find whether one of its possible
locations is vacant and store the key. If none of its possible
locations are available, then it will kick out a victim key and
store at that location. The kicked-out victim key will then be
stored at a vacant space of its possible locations or kick-out
another victim. In this diff, the kick-out path (known as
cuckoo-path) is found using BFS, which guarantees to be the shortest.
- Get: Simply tries all possible locations of a key --- this guarantees
worst-case constant time complexity.
- Time complexity: O(1) for Get, and average O(1) for Put if the
fullness of the mem-table is below 80%.
- Default using two hash functions, the number of hash functions used
by the cuckoo-hash may dynamically increase if it fails to find a
short-enough kick-out path.
- Currently, HashCuckooRep does not support iteration and snapshots,
as our current main purpose of this is to optimize point access.
= Minor Changes =
* Add IsSnapshotSupported() to DB to indicate whether the current DB
supports snapshots. If it returns false, then DB::GetSnapshot() will
always return nullptr.
Test Plan:
Run existing tests. Will develop a test specifically for cuckoo hash in
the next diff.

This diff removes number of level check from VersionEdit. It is used only when VersionEdit is read, not written, but has to be set when it is written. I believe it is a right thing to make VersionEdit dumb and check consistency on the caller side.

1. Key already exists in the current memtable. Does not inplace update values in immutable memtable or snapshot
2. Latest value type is a 'put' ie kTypeValue
3. New value size is less than existing value, to avoid reallocating memory
