Cap eviction effort (CPU under stress) in HyperClockCache (#12141) Summary: HyperClockCache is intended to mitigate performance problems under stress conditions (as well as optimizing average-case parallel performance). In LRUCache, the biggest such problem is lock contention when one or a small number of cache entries becomes particularly hot. Regardless of cache sharding, accesses to any particular cache entry are linearized against a single mutex, which is held while each access updates the LRU list. All HCC variants are fully lock/wait-free for accessing blocks already in the cache, which fully mitigates this contention problem. However, HCC (and CLOCK in general) can exhibit extremely degraded performance under a different stress condition: when no (or almost no) entries in a cache shard are evictable (they are pinned). Unlike LRU which can find any evictable entries immediately (at the cost of more coordination / synchronization on each access), CLOCK has to search for evictable entries. Under the right conditions (almost exclusively MB-scale caches not GB-scale), the CPU cost of each cache miss could fall off a cliff and bog down the whole system. To effectively mitigate this problem (IMHO), I'm introducing a new default behavior and tuning parameter for HCC, `eviction_effort_cap`. See the comments on the new config parameter in the public API. Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/12141 Test Plan: unit test included ## Performance test We can use cache_bench to validate no regression (CPU and memory) in normal operation, and to measure change in behavior when cache is almost entirely pinned. (TODO: I'm not sure why I had to get the pinned ratio parameter well over 1.0 to see truly bad performance, but the behavior is there.) Build with `make DEBUG_LEVEL=0 USE_CLANG=1 PORTABLE=0 cache_bench`. We also set MALLOC_CONF="narenas:1" for all these runs to essentially remove jemalloc variances from the results, so that the max RSS given by /usr/bin/time is essentially ideal (assuming the allocator minimizes fragmentation and other memory overheads well). Base command reproducing bad behavior: ``` ./cache_bench -cache_type=auto_hyper_clock_cache -threads=12 -histograms=0 -pinned_ratio=1.7 ``` ``` Before, LRU (alternate baseline not exhibiting bad behavior): Rough parallel ops/sec = 2290997 1088060 maxresident Before, AutoHCC (bad behavior): Rough parallel ops/sec = 141011 <- Yes, more than 10x slower 1083932 maxresident ``` Now let us sample a range of values in the solution space: ``` After, AutoHCC, eviction_effort_cap = 1: Rough parallel ops/sec = 3212586 2402216 maxresident After, AutoHCC, eviction_effort_cap = 10: Rough parallel ops/sec = 2371639 1248884 maxresident After, AutoHCC, eviction_effort_cap = 30: Rough parallel ops/sec = 1981092 1131596 maxresident After, AutoHCC, eviction_effort_cap = 100: Rough parallel ops/sec = 1446188 1090976 maxresident After, AutoHCC, eviction_effort_cap = 1000: Rough parallel ops/sec = 549568 1084064 maxresident ``` I looks like `cap=30` is a sweet spot balancing acceptable CPU and memory overheads, so is chosen as the default. ``` Change to -pinned_ratio=0.85 Before, LRU: Rough parallel ops/sec = 2108373 1078232 maxresident Before, AutoHCC, averaged over ~20 runs: Rough parallel ops/sec = 2164910 1077312 maxresident After, AutoHCC, eviction_effort_cap = 30, averaged over ~20 runs: Rough parallel ops/sec = 2145542 1077216 maxresident ``` The slight CPU improvement above is consistent with the cap, with no measurable memory overhead under moderate stress. ``` Change to -pinned_ratio=0.25 (low stress) Before, AutoHCC, averaged over ~20 runs: Rough parallel ops/sec = 2221149 1076540 maxresident After, AutoHCC, eviction_effort_cap = 30, averaged over ~20 runs: Rough parallel ops/sec = 2224521 1076664 maxresident ``` No measurable difference under normal circumstances.

Revamp, optimize new experimental clock cache (#10626) Summary: * Consolidates most metadata into a single word per slot so that more can be accomplished with a single atomic update. In the common case, Lookup was previously about 4 atomic updates, now just 1 atomic update. Common case Release was previously 1 atomic read + 1 atomic update, now just 1 atomic update. * Eliminate spins / waits / yields, which likely threaten some "lock free" benefits. Compare-exchange loops are only used in explicit Erase, and strict_capacity_limit=true Insert. Eviction uses opportunistic compare- exchange. * Relaxes some aggressiveness and guarantees. For example, * Duplicate Inserts will sometimes go undetected and the shadow duplicate will age out with eviction. * In many cases, the older Inserted value for a given cache key will be kept (i.e. Insert does not support overwrite). * Entries explicitly erased (rather than evicted) might not be freed immediately in some rare cases. * With strict_capacity_limit=false, capacity limit is not tracked/enforced as precisely as LRUCache, but is self-correcting and should only deviate by a very small number of extra or fewer entries. * Use smaller "computed default" number of cache shards in many cases, because benefits to larger usage tracking / eviction pools outweigh the small cost of more lock-free atomic contention. The improvement in CPU and I/O is dramatic in some limit-memory cases. * Even without the sharding change, the eviction algorithm is likely more effective than LRU overall because it's more stateful, even though the "hot path" state tracking for it is essentially free with ref counting. It is like a generalized CLOCK with aging (see code comments). I don't have performance numbers showing a specific improvement, but in theory, for a Poisson access pattern to each block, keeping some state allows better estimation of time to next access (Poisson interval) than strict LRU. The bounded randomness in CLOCK can also reduce "cliff" effect for repeated range scans approaching and exceeding cache size. ## Hot path algorithm comparison Rough descriptions, focusing on number and kind of atomic operations: * Old `Lookup()` (2-5 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment internal ref count at slot If possible hit: Check flags atomic (and non-atomic fields) If cache hit: Three distinct updates to 'flags' atomic Increment refs for internal-to-external Return Decrement internal ref count while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * New `Lookup()` (1-2 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment acquire counter in meta word (optimistic) If visible entry (already read meta word): If match (read non-atomic fields): Return Else: Decrement acquire counter in meta word Else if invisible entry (rare, already read meta word): Decrement acquire counter in meta word while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * Old `Release()` (1 atomic update, conditional on atomic read, rarely more): ``` Read atomic ref count If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return Else: Decrement ref count ``` * New `Release()` (1 unconditional atomic update, rarely more): ``` Increment release counter in meta word If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return ``` ## Performance test setup Build DB with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` Test with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=${CACHE_MB}000000 -duration 60 -threads=$THREADS -statistics ``` Numbers on a single socket Skylake Xeon system with 48 hardware threads, DEBUG_LEVEL=0 PORTABLE=0. Very similar story on a dual socket system with 80 hardware threads. Using (every 2nd) Fibonacci MB cache sizes to sample the territory between powers of two. Configurations: base: LRUCache before this change, but with db_bench change to default cache_numshardbits=-1 (instead of fixed at 6) folly: LRUCache before this change, with folly enabled (distributed mutex) but on an old compiler (sorry) gt_clock: experimental ClockCache before this change new_clock: experimental ClockCache with this change ## Performance test results First test "hot path" read performance, with block cache large enough for whole DB: 4181MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 47.761 4181MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 45.877 4181MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 51.092 4181MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 53.944 4181MB 16thread base -> kops/s: 284.567 4181MB 16thread folly -> kops/s: 249.015 4181MB 16thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 743.762 4181MB 16thread new_clock -> kops/s: 861.821 4181MB 24thread base -> kops/s: 303.415 4181MB 24thread folly -> kops/s: 266.548 4181MB 24thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 975.706 4181MB 24thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1205.64 (~= 24 * 53.944) 4181MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 311.251 4181MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 274.952 4181MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 1045.98 4181MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1370.38 4181MB 48thread base -> kops/s: 310.504 4181MB 48thread folly -> kops/s: 268.322 4181MB 48thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 1195.65 4181MB 48thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1604.85 (~= 24 * 1.25 * 53.944) 4181MB 64thread base -> kops/s: 307.839 4181MB 64thread folly -> kops/s: 272.172 4181MB 64thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 1204.47 4181MB 64thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1615.37 4181MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 310.934 4181MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 267.468 4181MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 1188.75 4181MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1595.46 Whether we have just one thread on a quiet system or an overload of threads, the new version wins every time in thousand-ops per second, sometimes dramatically so. Mutex-based implementation quickly becomes contention-limited. New clock cache shows essentially perfect scaling up to number of physical cores (24), and then each hyperthreaded core adding about 1/4 the throughput of an additional physical core (see 48 thread case). Block cache miss rates (omitted above) are negligible across the board. With partitioned instead of full filters, the maximum speed-up vs. base is more like 2.5x rather than 5x. Now test a large block cache with low miss ratio, but some eviction is required: 1597MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 46.603 io_bytes/op: 1584.63 miss_ratio: 0.0201066 max_rss_mb: 1589.23 1597MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 45.079 io_bytes/op: 1530.03 miss_ratio: 0.019872 max_rss_mb: 1550.43 1597MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 48.711 io_bytes/op: 1566.63 miss_ratio: 0.0198923 max_rss_mb: 1691.4 1597MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 51.531 io_bytes/op: 1589.07 miss_ratio: 0.0201969 max_rss_mb: 1583.56 1597MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 301.174 io_bytes/op: 1439.52 miss_ratio: 0.0184218 max_rss_mb: 1656.59 1597MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 273.09 io_bytes/op: 1375.12 miss_ratio: 0.0180002 max_rss_mb: 1586.8 1597MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 904.497 io_bytes/op: 1411.29 miss_ratio: 0.0179934 max_rss_mb: 1775.89 1597MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1182.59 io_bytes/op: 1440.77 miss_ratio: 0.0185449 max_rss_mb: 1636.45 1597MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 309.91 io_bytes/op: 1438.25 miss_ratio: 0.018399 max_rss_mb: 1689.98 1597MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 267.605 io_bytes/op: 1394.16 miss_ratio: 0.0180286 max_rss_mb: 1631.91 1597MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 691.518 io_bytes/op: 9056.73 miss_ratio: 0.0186572 max_rss_mb: 1982.26 1597MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1406.12 io_bytes/op: 1440.82 miss_ratio: 0.0185463 max_rss_mb: 1685.63 610MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 45.511 io_bytes/op: 2279.61 miss_ratio: 0.0290528 max_rss_mb: 615.137 610MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 43.386 io_bytes/op: 2217.29 miss_ratio: 0.0289282 max_rss_mb: 600.996 610MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 46.207 io_bytes/op: 2275.51 miss_ratio: 0.0290057 max_rss_mb: 637.934 610MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 48.879 io_bytes/op: 2283.1 miss_ratio: 0.0291253 max_rss_mb: 613.5 610MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 306.59 io_bytes/op: 2250 miss_ratio: 0.0288721 max_rss_mb: 683.402 610MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 269.176 io_bytes/op: 2187.86 miss_ratio: 0.0286938 max_rss_mb: 628.742 610MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 855.097 io_bytes/op: 2279.26 miss_ratio: 0.0288009 max_rss_mb: 733.062 610MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1121.47 io_bytes/op: 2244.29 miss_ratio: 0.0289046 max_rss_mb: 666.453 610MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 305.079 io_bytes/op: 2252.43 miss_ratio: 0.0288884 max_rss_mb: 723.457 610MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 269.583 io_bytes/op: 2204.58 miss_ratio: 0.0287001 max_rss_mb: 676.426 610MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 53.298 io_bytes/op: 8128.98 miss_ratio: 0.0292452 max_rss_mb: 956.273 610MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1301.09 io_bytes/op: 2246.04 miss_ratio: 0.0289171 max_rss_mb: 788.812 The new version is still winning every time, sometimes dramatically so, and we can tell from the maximum resident memory numbers (which contain some noise, by the way) that the new cache is not cheating on memory usage. IMPORTANT: The previous generation experimental clock cache appears to hit a serious bottleneck in the higher thread count configurations, presumably due to some of its waiting functionality. (The same bottleneck is not seen with partitioned index+filters.) Now we consider even smaller cache sizes, with higher miss ratios, eviction work, etc. 233MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 10.557 io_bytes/op: 227040 miss_ratio: 0.0403105 max_rss_mb: 247.371 233MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 15.348 io_bytes/op: 112007 miss_ratio: 0.0372238 max_rss_mb: 245.293 233MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 6.365 io_bytes/op: 244854 miss_ratio: 0.0413873 max_rss_mb: 259.844 233MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 47.501 io_bytes/op: 2591.93 miss_ratio: 0.0330989 max_rss_mb: 242.461 233MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 96.498 io_bytes/op: 363379 miss_ratio: 0.0459966 max_rss_mb: 479.227 233MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 109.95 io_bytes/op: 314799 miss_ratio: 0.0450032 max_rss_mb: 400.738 233MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 2.353 io_bytes/op: 385397 miss_ratio: 0.048445 max_rss_mb: 500.688 233MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1088.95 io_bytes/op: 2567.02 miss_ratio: 0.0330593 max_rss_mb: 303.402 233MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 84.302 io_bytes/op: 378020 miss_ratio: 0.0466558 max_rss_mb: 1051.84 233MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 89.921 io_bytes/op: 338242 miss_ratio: 0.0460309 max_rss_mb: 812.785 233MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 2.588 io_bytes/op: 462833 miss_ratio: 0.0509158 max_rss_mb: 1109.94 233MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1299.26 io_bytes/op: 2565.94 miss_ratio: 0.0330531 max_rss_mb: 361.016 89MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 0.574 io_bytes/op: 5.35977e+06 miss_ratio: 0.274427 max_rss_mb: 91.3086 89MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 0.578 io_bytes/op: 5.16549e+06 miss_ratio: 0.27276 max_rss_mb: 96.8984 89MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 0.512 io_bytes/op: 4.13111e+06 miss_ratio: 0.242817 max_rss_mb: 119.441 89MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 48.172 io_bytes/op: 2709.76 miss_ratio: 0.0346162 max_rss_mb: 100.754 89MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 5.779 io_bytes/op: 6.14192e+06 miss_ratio: 0.320399 max_rss_mb: 311.812 89MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 5.601 io_bytes/op: 5.83838e+06 miss_ratio: 0.313123 max_rss_mb: 252.418 89MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 0.77 io_bytes/op: 3.99236e+06 miss_ratio: 0.236296 max_rss_mb: 396.422 89MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1064.97 io_bytes/op: 2687.23 miss_ratio: 0.0346134 max_rss_mb: 155.293 89MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 4.959 io_bytes/op: 6.20297e+06 miss_ratio: 0.323945 max_rss_mb: 823.43 89MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 4.962 io_bytes/op: 5.9601e+06 miss_ratio: 0.319857 max_rss_mb: 626.824 89MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 1.009 io_bytes/op: 4.1083e+06 miss_ratio: 0.242512 max_rss_mb: 1095.32 89MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1224.39 io_bytes/op: 2688.2 miss_ratio: 0.0346207 max_rss_mb: 218.223 ^ Now something interesting has happened: the new clock cache has gained a dramatic lead in the single-threaded case, and this is because the cache is so small, and full filters are so big, that dividing the cache into 64 shards leads to significant (random) imbalances in cache shards and excessive churn in imbalanced shards. This new clock cache only uses two shards for this configuration, and that helps to ensure that entries are part of a sufficiently big pool that their eviction order resembles the single-shard order.

Automatic table sizing for HyperClockCache (AutoHCC) (#11738) Summary: This change add an experimental next-generation HyperClockCache (HCC) with automatic sizing of the underlying hash table. Both the existing version (stable) and the new version (experimental for now) of HCC are available depending on whether an estimated average entry charge is provided in HyperClockCacheOptions. Internally, we call the two implementations AutoHyperClockCache (new) and FixedHyperClockCache (existing). The performance characteristics and much of the underlying logic are similar enough that AutoHCC is likely to make FixedHCC obsolete, and so it's best considered an evolution of the same technology or solution rather than an alternative. More specifically, both implementations share essentially the same logic for managing the state of individual entries in the cache, including metadata for reference counting and counting clocks for eviction. This metadata, which I like to call the "low-level HCC protocol," includes a read-write lock on entries, but relaxed consistency requirements on the cache (e.g. allowing rare duplication) means high-level cache operations never wait for these low-level per-entry locks. FixedHCC is fully wait-free. AutoHCC is different in how entries are indexed into an efficient hash table. AutoHCC is "essentially wait-free" as there is no pattern of typical high-level operations on a large cache that can lead to one thread waiting on another to complete some work, though it can happen in some unusual/unlucky cases, or atypical uses such as erasing specific cache keys. Table growth and entry reclamation is more complex in AutoHCC compared to FixedHCC, so uses some localized locking to manage that. AutoHCC uses linear hashing to grow the table as needed, with low latency and to a precise size. AutoHCC depends on anonymous mmap support from the OS (currently verified working on Linux, MacOS, and Windows) to allow the array underlying a hash table to grow in place without wasting resident memory on space reserved but unused. AutoHCC uses a form of chaining while FixedHCC uses open addressing and double hashing. More specifics: * In developing this PR, a rare availability bug (minor) was noticed in the existing HCC implementation of Release()+erase_if_last_ref, which is now inherited into AutoHCC. Fixing this without a performance regression will not be simple, so is left for follow-up work. * Some existing unit tests required adjustment of operational parameters or conditions to work with the new behaviors of AutoHCC. A number of bugs were found and fixed in the validation process, including getting unit tests in good working order. * Added an option to cache_bench, `-degenerate_hash_bits` for correctness stress testing described below. For this, the tool uses the reverse-engineered hash function for HCC to generate keys in which the specified number of hash bits, in critical positions, have a fixed value. Essentially each degenerate hash bit will half the number of chain heads utilized and double the average chain length. Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/11738 Test Plan: unit tests updated, and already added to db crash test. Also ## Correctness The code includes generous assertions to check for unexpected states, especially at destruction time, so should be able to detect critical concurrency bugs. Less serious "availability bugs" in which cache data is hidden or cleanly lost are more difficult to detect, but also less scary for data correctness (as long as performance is good and the design is sound). In average operation, the structure is extremely low stress and low contention (see next section) so stressing the corner case logic requires artificially stressing the operating conditions. First, we keep the structure small to increase the number of threads hitting the same chain or entry, and just one cache shard. Second, we artificially degrade the hashing so that chains are much longer than typical, using the new `-degenerate_hash_bits` option to cache_bench. Third, we re-create the structure from scratch frequently in order to exercise the Grow logic repeatedly and to get the benefit of the consistency checks in the structure's destructor in debug builds. For cache_bench this also means disabling the single-threaded "populate cache" step (normally used for steady state performance testing). And of course use many more threads than cores to have many preemptions. An effective test for working out bugs was this (using debug build of course): ``` while ./cache_bench -cache_type=auto_hyper_clock_cache -histograms=0 -cache_size=8000000 -threads=100 -populate_cache=0 -ops_per_thread=10000 -degenerate_hash_bits=6 -num_shard_bits=0; do :; done ``` Or even smaller cases. This setup has around 27 utilized chains, with around 35 entries each, and yield-waits more than 1 million times per second (very high contention; see next section). I have let this run for hours searching for any lingering issues. I've also run cache_bench under ASAN, UBSAN, and TSAN. ## Essentially wait free There is a counter for number of yield() calls when one thread is waiting on another. When we pre-populate the structure in a single thread, ``` ./cache_bench -cache_type=auto_hyper_clock_cache -histograms=0 -populate_cache=1 -ops_per_thread=200000 2>&1 | grep Yield ``` We see something on the order of 1 yield call per second across 16 threads, even when we load the system other other jobs (parallel compilation). With -populate_cache=0, there are more yield opportunities with parallel table growth. On an otherwise unloaded system, we still see very small (single digit) yield counts, with a chance of getting into the thousands, and getting into 10s of thousands per second during table growth phase if the system is loaded with other jobs. However, I am not worried about this if performance is still good (see next section). ## Overall performance Although cache_bench initially suggested performance very close to FixedHCC, there was a very noticeable performance hit under a db_bench setup like used in validating https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/10626. Much of the difference has been reduced by optimizing Lookup with a "naive" pass that will almost always find entries quickly, and only falling back to the careful Lookup algorithm when not found in the first pass. Setups (chosen to be sensitive to block cache performance), and compiled with USE_CLANG=1 JEMALLOC=1 PORTABLE=0 DEBUG_LEVEL=0: ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm base/db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` ### No regression on FixedHCC Running before & after builds at the same time on a 48 core machine. ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm /usr/bin/time ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom[-X10],block_cache_entry_stats,cache_report_problems -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=610000000 -duration 20 -threads=24 -cache_type=fixed_hyper_clock_cache -seed=1234 ``` Before: readrandom [AVG 10 runs] : 847234 (± 8150) ops/sec; 59.2 (± 0.6) MB/sec 703MB max RSS After: readrandom [AVG 10 runs] : 851021 (± 7929) ops/sec; 59.5 (± 0.6) MB/sec 706MB max RSS Probably no material difference. ### Single-threaded performance Using `[-X2]` and `-threads=1` and `-duration=30`, running all three at the same time: lru_cache: 55100 ops/sec, then 55862 ops/sec (627MB max RSS) fixed_hyper_clock_cache: 60496 ops/sec, then 61231 ops/sec (626MB max RSS) auto_hyper_clock_cache: 47560 ops/sec, then 56081 ops/sec (626MB max RSS) So AutoHCC has more ramp-up cost in the first pass as the cache grows to the appropriate size. (In single-threaded operation, the parallelizability and per-op low latency of table growth is overall slower.) However, once up to size, its performance is comparable to LRUCache. FixedHCC's lean operations still win overall when a good estimate is available. If we look at HCC table stats, we can see that this configuration is not favorable to AutoHCC (and I have verified that other memory sizes do not yield substantially different results, until shards are under-sized for the full filters): FixedHCC: Slot occupancy stats: Overall 47% (124991/262144), Min/Max/Window = 28%/64%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 17/22 AutoHCC: Slot occupancy stats: Overall 59% (125781/209682), Min/Max/Window = 43%/82%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 76/16 Head occupancy stats: Overall 43% (92259/209682), Min/Max/Window = 24%/74%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 19/26 Entries at home count: 53350 FixedHCC configuration is relatively good for speed, and not ideal for space utilization. As is typical, AutoHCC has tighter control on metadata usage (209682 x 64 bytes rather than 262144 x 64 bytes), and the higher load factor is slightly worse for speed. LRUCache also has more metadata usage, at 199680 x 96 bytes of tracked metadata (plus roughly another 10% of that untracked in the head pointers), and that metadata is subject to fragmentation. ### Parallel performance, high hit rate Now using `[-X10]` and `-threads=10`, all three at the same time lru_cache: [AVG 10 runs] : 263629 (± 1425) ops/sec; 18.4 (± 0.1) MB/sec 655MB max RSS, 97.1% cache hit rate fixed_hyper_clock_cache: [AVG 10 runs] : 479590 (± 8114) ops/sec; 33.5 (± 0.6) MB/sec 651MB max RSS, 97.1% cache hit rate auto_hyper_clock_cache: [AVG 10 runs] : 418687 (± 5915) ops/sec; 29.3 (± 0.4) MB/sec 657MB max RSS, 97.1% cache hit rate Even with just 10-way parallelism for each cache (though 30+/48 cores busy overall), LRUCache is already showing performance degradation, while AutoHCC is in the neighborhood of FixedHCC. And that brings us to the question of how AutoHCC holds up under extreme parallelism, so now independent runs with `-threads=100` (overloading 48 cores). lru_cache: 438613 ops/sec, 827MB max RSS fixed_hyper_clock_cache: 1651310 ops/sec, 812MB max RSS auto_hyper_clock_cache: 1505875 ops/sec, 821MB max RSS (Yield count: 1089 over 30s) Clearly, AutoHCC holds up extremely well under extreme parallelism, even closing some of the modest performance gap with FixedHCC. ### Parallel performance, low hit rate To get down to roughly 50% cache hit rate, we use `-cache_index_and_filter_blocks=0 -cache_size=1650000000` with `-threads=10`. Here the extra cost of running counting clock eviction, especially on the chains of AutoHCC, are evident, especially with the lower contention of cache_index_and_filter_blocks=0: lru_cache: 725231 ops/sec, 1770MB max RSS, 51.3% hit rate fixed_hyper_clock_cache: 638620 ops/sec, 1765MB max RSS, 50.2% hit rate auto_hyper_clock_cache: 541018 ops/sec, 1777MB max RSS, 50.8% hit rate Reviewed By: jowlyzhang Differential Revision: D48784755 Pulled By: pdillinger fbshipit-source-id: e79813dc087474ac427637dd282a14fa3011a6e4

Refactor (Hyper)ClockCache code (#10887) Summary: For clean-up and in preparation for some other anticipated changes, including * A new dynamically-scaling variant of HyperClockCache * SecondaryCache support for HyperClockCache This change does some refactoring for current and future code sharing and reusability. (Including follow-up on https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/10843) ## clock_cache.h * TBD whether new variant will be a HyperClockCache or use some other name, so namespace is just clock_cache for the family of structures. * A number of helper functions introduced and used. * Pre-emptively split ClockHandle (shared among lock-free clock cache variants) and HandleImpl (specific to a kind of Table), and introduce template to plug new Table implementation into ClockCacheShard. ## clock_cache.cc * Mostly using helper functions. Some things like `Rollback()` and `FreeDataMarkEmpty()` were not combined because `Rollback()` is Table-specific while `FreeDataMarkEmpty()` can be used with different table implementations. * Performance testing indicated that despite more opportunities for parallelism, making a local copy of handle data for processing after marking an entry empty was slower than doing that processing before marking the entry empty (but after marking it "under construction"), thus avoiding a few words of copying data. At least for now, this answers the "TODO? Delay freeing?" questions (no). Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/10887 Test Plan: fixed a unit testing gap; other minor test updates for refactoring No functionality change ## Performance Same setup as https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/10801: Before: `readrandom [AVG 81 runs] : 627992 (± 5124) ops/sec` After: `readrandom [AVG 81 runs] : 637512 (± 4866) ops/sec` I've been getting some inconsistent results on restarts like the system is not being fair to the two processes, so I'm not sure there's such a real difference.

Placeholder for AutoHyperClockCache, more (#11692) Summary: * The plan is for AutoHyperClockCache to be selected when HyperClockCacheOptions::estimated_entry_charge == 0, and in that case to use a new configuration option min_avg_entry_charge for determining an extreme case maximum size for the hash table. For the placeholder, a hack is in place in HyperClockCacheOptions::MakeSharedCache() to make the unit tests happy despite the new options not really making sense with the current implementation. * Mostly updating and refactoring tests to test both the current HCC (internal name FixedHyperClockCache) and a placeholder for the new version (internal name AutoHyperClockCache). * Simplify some existing tests not to depend directly on cache type. * Type-parameterize the shard-level unit tests, which unfortunately requires more syntax like `this->` in places for disambiguation. * Added means of choosing auto_hyper_clock_cache to cache_bench, db_bench, and db_stress, including add to crash test. * Add another templated class BaseHyperClockCache to reduce future copy-paste * Added ReportProblems support to cache_bench * Added a DEBUG-level diagnostic to ReportProblems for the variance in load factor throughout the table, which will become more of a concern with linear hashing to be used in the Auto implementation. Example with current Fixed HCC: ``` 2023/08/10-13:41:41.602450 6ac36 [DEBUG] [che/clock_cache.cc:1507] Slot occupancy stats: Overall 49% (129008/262144), Min/Max/Window = 39%/60%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 18/17 ``` In other words, with overall occupancy of 49%, the lowest across any 500 contiguous cells is 39% and highest 60%. Longest run of occupied is 18 and longest run of unoccupied is 17. This seems consistent with random samples from a uniform distribution.

For example, * Duplicate Inserts will sometimes go undetected and the shadow duplicate will age out with eviction. * In many cases, the older Inserted value for a given cache key will be kept (i.e. Insert does not support overwrite). * Entries explicitly erased (rather than evicted) might not be freed immediately in some rare cases. * With strict_capacity_limit=false, capacity limit is not tracked/enforced as precisely as LRUCache, but is self-correcting and should only deviate by a very small number of extra or fewer entries. * Use smaller "computed default" number of cache shards in many cases, because benefits to larger usage tracking / eviction pools outweigh the small cost of more lock-free atomic contention. The improvement in CPU and I/O is dramatic in some limit-memory cases. * Even without the sharding change, the eviction algorithm is likely more effective than LRU overall because it's more stateful, even though the "hot path" state tracking for it is essentially free with ref counting. It is like a generalized CLOCK with aging (see code comments). I don't have performance numbers showing a specific improvement, but in theory, for a Poisson access pattern to each block, keeping some state allows better estimation of time to next access (Poisson interval) than strict LRU. The bounded randomness in CLOCK can also reduce "cliff" effect for repeated range scans approaching and exceeding cache size. ## Hot path algorithm comparison Rough descriptions, focusing on number and kind of atomic operations: * Old `Lookup()` (2-5 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment internal ref count at slot If possible hit: Check flags atomic (and non-atomic fields) If cache hit: Three distinct updates to 'flags' atomic Increment refs for internal-to-external Return Decrement internal ref count while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * New `Lookup()` (1-2 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment acquire counter in meta word (optimistic) If visible entry (already read meta word): If match (read non-atomic fields): Return Else: Decrement acquire counter in meta word Else if invisible entry (rare, already read meta word): Decrement acquire counter in meta word while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * Old `Release()` (1 atomic update, conditional on atomic read, rarely more): ``` Read atomic ref count If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return Else: Decrement ref count ``` * New `Release()` (1 unconditional atomic update, rarely more): ``` Increment release counter in meta word If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return ``` ## Performance test setup Build DB with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` Test with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=${CACHE_MB}000000 -duration 60 -threads=$THREADS -statistics ``` Numbers on a single socket Skylake Xeon system with 48 hardware threads, DEBUG_LEVEL=0 PORTABLE=0. Very similar story on a dual socket system with 80 hardware threads. Using (every 2nd) Fibonacci MB cache sizes to sample the territory between powers of two.

Mutex-based implementation quickly becomes contention-limited. New clock cache shows essentially perfect scaling up to number of physical cores (24), and then each hyperthreaded core adding about 1/4 the throughput of an additional physical core (see 48 thread case). Block cache miss rates (omitted above) are negligible across the board. With partitioned instead of full filters, the maximum speed-up vs. base is more like 2.5x rather than 5x.

This new clock cache only uses two shards for this configuration, and that helps to ensure that entries are part of a sufficiently big pool that their eviction order resembles the single-shard order.

Automatic table sizing for HyperClockCache (AutoHCC) (#11738) Summary: This change add an experimental next-generation HyperClockCache (HCC) with automatic sizing of the underlying hash table. Both the existing version (stable) and the new version (experimental for now) of HCC are available depending on whether an estimated average entry charge is provided in HyperClockCacheOptions. Internally, we call the two implementations AutoHyperClockCache (new) and FixedHyperClockCache (existing). The performance characteristics and much of the underlying logic are similar enough that AutoHCC is likely to make FixedHCC obsolete, and so it's best considered an evolution of the same technology or solution rather than an alternative. More specifically, both implementations share essentially the same logic for managing the state of individual entries in the cache, including metadata for reference counting and counting clocks for eviction. This metadata, which I like to call the "low-level HCC protocol," includes a read-write lock on entries, but relaxed consistency requirements on the cache (e.g. allowing rare duplication) means high-level cache operations never wait for these low-level per-entry locks. FixedHCC is fully wait-free. AutoHCC is different in how entries are indexed into an efficient hash table. AutoHCC is "essentially wait-free" as there is no pattern of typical high-level operations on a large cache that can lead to one thread waiting on another to complete some work, though it can happen in some unusual/unlucky cases, or atypical uses such as erasing specific cache keys. Table growth and entry reclamation is more complex in AutoHCC compared to FixedHCC, so uses some localized locking to manage that. AutoHCC uses linear hashing to grow the table as needed, with low latency and to a precise size. AutoHCC depends on anonymous mmap support from the OS (currently verified working on Linux, MacOS, and Windows) to allow the array underlying a hash table to grow in place without wasting resident memory on space reserved but unused. AutoHCC uses a form of chaining while FixedHCC uses open addressing and double hashing. More specifics: * In developing this PR, a rare availability bug (minor) was noticed in the existing HCC implementation of Release()+erase_if_last_ref, which is now inherited into AutoHCC. Fixing this without a performance regression will not be simple, so is left for follow-up work. * Some existing unit tests required adjustment of operational parameters or conditions to work with the new behaviors of AutoHCC. A number of bugs were found and fixed in the validation process, including getting unit tests in good working order. * Added an option to cache_bench, `-degenerate_hash_bits` for correctness stress testing described below. For this, the tool uses the reverse-engineered hash function for HCC to generate keys in which the specified number of hash bits, in critical positions, have a fixed value. Essentially each degenerate hash bit will half the number of chain heads utilized and double the average chain length. Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/11738 Test Plan: unit tests updated, and already added to db crash test. Also ## Correctness The code includes generous assertions to check for unexpected states, especially at destruction time, so should be able to detect critical concurrency bugs. Less serious "availability bugs" in which cache data is hidden or cleanly lost are more difficult to detect, but also less scary for data correctness (as long as performance is good and the design is sound). In average operation, the structure is extremely low stress and low contention (see next section) so stressing the corner case logic requires artificially stressing the operating conditions. First, we keep the structure small to increase the number of threads hitting the same chain or entry, and just one cache shard. Second, we artificially degrade the hashing so that chains are much longer than typical, using the new `-degenerate_hash_bits` option to cache_bench. Third, we re-create the structure from scratch frequently in order to exercise the Grow logic repeatedly and to get the benefit of the consistency checks in the structure's destructor in debug builds. For cache_bench this also means disabling the single-threaded "populate cache" step (normally used for steady state performance testing). And of course use many more threads than cores to have many preemptions. An effective test for working out bugs was this (using debug build of course): ``` while ./cache_bench -cache_type=auto_hyper_clock_cache -histograms=0 -cache_size=8000000 -threads=100 -populate_cache=0 -ops_per_thread=10000 -degenerate_hash_bits=6 -num_shard_bits=0; do :; done ``` Or even smaller cases. This setup has around 27 utilized chains, with around 35 entries each, and yield-waits more than 1 million times per second (very high contention; see next section). I have let this run for hours searching for any lingering issues. I've also run cache_bench under ASAN, UBSAN, and TSAN. ## Essentially wait free There is a counter for number of yield() calls when one thread is waiting on another. When we pre-populate the structure in a single thread, ``` ./cache_bench -cache_type=auto_hyper_clock_cache -histograms=0 -populate_cache=1 -ops_per_thread=200000 2>&1 | grep Yield ``` We see something on the order of 1 yield call per second across 16 threads, even when we load the system other other jobs (parallel compilation). With -populate_cache=0, there are more yield opportunities with parallel table growth. On an otherwise unloaded system, we still see very small (single digit) yield counts, with a chance of getting into the thousands, and getting into 10s of thousands per second during table growth phase if the system is loaded with other jobs. However, I am not worried about this if performance is still good (see next section). ## Overall performance Although cache_bench initially suggested performance very close to FixedHCC, there was a very noticeable performance hit under a db_bench setup like used in validating https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/10626. Much of the difference has been reduced by optimizing Lookup with a "naive" pass that will almost always find entries quickly, and only falling back to the careful Lookup algorithm when not found in the first pass. Setups (chosen to be sensitive to block cache performance), and compiled with USE_CLANG=1 JEMALLOC=1 PORTABLE=0 DEBUG_LEVEL=0: ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm base/db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` ### No regression on FixedHCC Running before & after builds at the same time on a 48 core machine. ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm /usr/bin/time ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom[-X10],block_cache_entry_stats,cache_report_problems -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=610000000 -duration 20 -threads=24 -cache_type=fixed_hyper_clock_cache -seed=1234 ``` Before: readrandom [AVG 10 runs] : 847234 (± 8150) ops/sec; 59.2 (± 0.6) MB/sec 703MB max RSS After: readrandom [AVG 10 runs] : 851021 (± 7929) ops/sec; 59.5 (± 0.6) MB/sec 706MB max RSS Probably no material difference. ### Single-threaded performance Using `[-X2]` and `-threads=1` and `-duration=30`, running all three at the same time: lru_cache: 55100 ops/sec, then 55862 ops/sec (627MB max RSS) fixed_hyper_clock_cache: 60496 ops/sec, then 61231 ops/sec (626MB max RSS) auto_hyper_clock_cache: 47560 ops/sec, then 56081 ops/sec (626MB max RSS) So AutoHCC has more ramp-up cost in the first pass as the cache grows to the appropriate size. (In single-threaded operation, the parallelizability and per-op low latency of table growth is overall slower.) However, once up to size, its performance is comparable to LRUCache. FixedHCC's lean operations still win overall when a good estimate is available. If we look at HCC table stats, we can see that this configuration is not favorable to AutoHCC (and I have verified that other memory sizes do not yield substantially different results, until shards are under-sized for the full filters): FixedHCC: Slot occupancy stats: Overall 47% (124991/262144), Min/Max/Window = 28%/64%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 17/22 AutoHCC: Slot occupancy stats: Overall 59% (125781/209682), Min/Max/Window = 43%/82%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 76/16 Head occupancy stats: Overall 43% (92259/209682), Min/Max/Window = 24%/74%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 19/26 Entries at home count: 53350 FixedHCC configuration is relatively good for speed, and not ideal for space utilization. As is typical, AutoHCC has tighter control on metadata usage (209682 x 64 bytes rather than 262144 x 64 bytes), and the higher load factor is slightly worse for speed. LRUCache also has more metadata usage, at 199680 x 96 bytes of tracked metadata (plus roughly another 10% of that untracked in the head pointers), and that metadata is subject to fragmentation. ### Parallel performance, high hit rate Now using `[-X10]` and `-threads=10`, all three at the same time lru_cache: [AVG 10 runs] : 263629 (± 1425) ops/sec; 18.4 (± 0.1) MB/sec 655MB max RSS, 97.1% cache hit rate fixed_hyper_clock_cache: [AVG 10 runs] : 479590 (± 8114) ops/sec; 33.5 (± 0.6) MB/sec 651MB max RSS, 97.1% cache hit rate auto_hyper_clock_cache: [AVG 10 runs] : 418687 (± 5915) ops/sec; 29.3 (± 0.4) MB/sec 657MB max RSS, 97.1% cache hit rate Even with just 10-way parallelism for each cache (though 30+/48 cores busy overall), LRUCache is already showing performance degradation, while AutoHCC is in the neighborhood of FixedHCC. And that brings us to the question of how AutoHCC holds up under extreme parallelism, so now independent runs with `-threads=100` (overloading 48 cores). lru_cache: 438613 ops/sec, 827MB max RSS fixed_hyper_clock_cache: 1651310 ops/sec, 812MB max RSS auto_hyper_clock_cache: 1505875 ops/sec, 821MB max RSS (Yield count: 1089 over 30s) Clearly, AutoHCC holds up extremely well under extreme parallelism, even closing some of the modest performance gap with FixedHCC. ### Parallel performance, low hit rate To get down to roughly 50% cache hit rate, we use `-cache_index_and_filter_blocks=0 -cache_size=1650000000` with `-threads=10`. Here the extra cost of running counting clock eviction, especially on the chains of AutoHCC, are evident, especially with the lower contention of cache_index_and_filter_blocks=0: lru_cache: 725231 ops/sec, 1770MB max RSS, 51.3% hit rate fixed_hyper_clock_cache: 638620 ops/sec, 1765MB max RSS, 50.2% hit rate auto_hyper_clock_cache: 541018 ops/sec, 1777MB max RSS, 50.8% hit rate Reviewed By: jowlyzhang Differential Revision: D48784755 Pulled By: pdillinger fbshipit-source-id: e79813dc087474ac427637dd282a14fa3011a6e4

// * Lock/wait free (no waits or spins) for efficiency under high concurrency
// * Fixed version (estimated_entry_charge > 0) is fully lock/wait free
// * Automatic version (estimated_entry_charge = 0) has rare waits among
// certain insertion or erase operations that involve the same very small
// set of entries.
Revamp, optimize new experimental clock cache (#10626) Summary: * Consolidates most metadata into a single word per slot so that more can be accomplished with a single atomic update. In the common case, Lookup was previously about 4 atomic updates, now just 1 atomic update. Common case Release was previously 1 atomic read + 1 atomic update, now just 1 atomic update. * Eliminate spins / waits / yields, which likely threaten some "lock free" benefits. Compare-exchange loops are only used in explicit Erase, and strict_capacity_limit=true Insert. Eviction uses opportunistic compare- exchange. * Relaxes some aggressiveness and guarantees. For example, * Duplicate Inserts will sometimes go undetected and the shadow duplicate will age out with eviction. * In many cases, the older Inserted value for a given cache key will be kept (i.e. Insert does not support overwrite). * Entries explicitly erased (rather than evicted) might not be freed immediately in some rare cases. * With strict_capacity_limit=false, capacity limit is not tracked/enforced as precisely as LRUCache, but is self-correcting and should only deviate by a very small number of extra or fewer entries. * Use smaller "computed default" number of cache shards in many cases, because benefits to larger usage tracking / eviction pools outweigh the small cost of more lock-free atomic contention. The improvement in CPU and I/O is dramatic in some limit-memory cases. * Even without the sharding change, the eviction algorithm is likely more effective than LRU overall because it's more stateful, even though the "hot path" state tracking for it is essentially free with ref counting. It is like a generalized CLOCK with aging (see code comments). I don't have performance numbers showing a specific improvement, but in theory, for a Poisson access pattern to each block, keeping some state allows better estimation of time to next access (Poisson interval) than strict LRU. The bounded randomness in CLOCK can also reduce "cliff" effect for repeated range scans approaching and exceeding cache size. ## Hot path algorithm comparison Rough descriptions, focusing on number and kind of atomic operations: * Old `Lookup()` (2-5 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment internal ref count at slot If possible hit: Check flags atomic (and non-atomic fields) If cache hit: Three distinct updates to 'flags' atomic Increment refs for internal-to-external Return Decrement internal ref count while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * New `Lookup()` (1-2 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment acquire counter in meta word (optimistic) If visible entry (already read meta word): If match (read non-atomic fields): Return Else: Decrement acquire counter in meta word Else if invisible entry (rare, already read meta word): Decrement acquire counter in meta word while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * Old `Release()` (1 atomic update, conditional on atomic read, rarely more): ``` Read atomic ref count If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return Else: Decrement ref count ``` * New `Release()` (1 unconditional atomic update, rarely more): ``` Increment release counter in meta word If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return ``` ## Performance test setup Build DB with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` Test with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=${CACHE_MB}000000 -duration 60 -threads=$THREADS -statistics ``` Numbers on a single socket Skylake Xeon system with 48 hardware threads, DEBUG_LEVEL=0 PORTABLE=0.

Mutex-based implementation quickly becomes contention-limited. New clock cache shows essentially perfect scaling up to number of physical cores (24), and then each hyperthreaded core adding about 1/4 the throughput of an additional physical core (see 48 thread case). Block cache miss rates (omitted above) are negligible across the board. With partitioned instead of full filters, the maximum speed-up vs. base is more like 2.5x rather than 5x.

(The same bottleneck is not seen with partitioned index+filters.)

Automatic table sizing for HyperClockCache (AutoHCC) (#11738) Summary: This change add an experimental next-generation HyperClockCache (HCC) with automatic sizing of the underlying hash table. Both the existing version (stable) and the new version (experimental for now) of HCC are available depending on whether an estimated average entry charge is provided in HyperClockCacheOptions. Internally, we call the two implementations AutoHyperClockCache (new) and FixedHyperClockCache (existing). The performance characteristics and much of the underlying logic are similar enough that AutoHCC is likely to make FixedHCC obsolete, and so it's best considered an evolution of the same technology or solution rather than an alternative. More specifically, both implementations share essentially the same logic for managing the state of individual entries in the cache, including metadata for reference counting and counting clocks for eviction. This metadata, which I like to call the "low-level HCC protocol," includes a read-write lock on entries, but relaxed consistency requirements on the cache (e.g. allowing rare duplication) means high-level cache operations never wait for these low-level per-entry locks. FixedHCC is fully wait-free. AutoHCC is different in how entries are indexed into an efficient hash table. AutoHCC is "essentially wait-free" as there is no pattern of typical high-level operations on a large cache that can lead to one thread waiting on another to complete some work, though it can happen in some unusual/unlucky cases, or atypical uses such as erasing specific cache keys. Table growth and entry reclamation is more complex in AutoHCC compared to FixedHCC, so uses some localized locking to manage that. AutoHCC uses linear hashing to grow the table as needed, with low latency and to a precise size. AutoHCC depends on anonymous mmap support from the OS (currently verified working on Linux, MacOS, and Windows) to allow the array underlying a hash table to grow in place without wasting resident memory on space reserved but unused. AutoHCC uses a form of chaining while FixedHCC uses open addressing and double hashing. More specifics: * In developing this PR, a rare availability bug (minor) was noticed in the existing HCC implementation of Release()+erase_if_last_ref, which is now inherited into AutoHCC. Fixing this without a performance regression will not be simple, so is left for follow-up work. * Some existing unit tests required adjustment of operational parameters or conditions to work with the new behaviors of AutoHCC. A number of bugs were found and fixed in the validation process, including getting unit tests in good working order. * Added an option to cache_bench, `-degenerate_hash_bits` for correctness stress testing described below. For this, the tool uses the reverse-engineered hash function for HCC to generate keys in which the specified number of hash bits, in critical positions, have a fixed value. Essentially each degenerate hash bit will half the number of chain heads utilized and double the average chain length. Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/11738 Test Plan: unit tests updated, and already added to db crash test. Also ## Correctness The code includes generous assertions to check for unexpected states, especially at destruction time, so should be able to detect critical concurrency bugs. Less serious "availability bugs" in which cache data is hidden or cleanly lost are more difficult to detect, but also less scary for data correctness (as long as performance is good and the design is sound). In average operation, the structure is extremely low stress and low contention (see next section) so stressing the corner case logic requires artificially stressing the operating conditions. First, we keep the structure small to increase the number of threads hitting the same chain or entry, and just one cache shard. Second, we artificially degrade the hashing so that chains are much longer than typical, using the new `-degenerate_hash_bits` option to cache_bench. Third, we re-create the structure from scratch frequently in order to exercise the Grow logic repeatedly and to get the benefit of the consistency checks in the structure's destructor in debug builds. For cache_bench this also means disabling the single-threaded "populate cache" step (normally used for steady state performance testing). And of course use many more threads than cores to have many preemptions. An effective test for working out bugs was this (using debug build of course): ``` while ./cache_bench -cache_type=auto_hyper_clock_cache -histograms=0 -cache_size=8000000 -threads=100 -populate_cache=0 -ops_per_thread=10000 -degenerate_hash_bits=6 -num_shard_bits=0; do :; done ``` Or even smaller cases. This setup has around 27 utilized chains, with around 35 entries each, and yield-waits more than 1 million times per second (very high contention; see next section). I have let this run for hours searching for any lingering issues. I've also run cache_bench under ASAN, UBSAN, and TSAN. ## Essentially wait free There is a counter for number of yield() calls when one thread is waiting on another. When we pre-populate the structure in a single thread, ``` ./cache_bench -cache_type=auto_hyper_clock_cache -histograms=0 -populate_cache=1 -ops_per_thread=200000 2>&1 | grep Yield ``` We see something on the order of 1 yield call per second across 16 threads, even when we load the system other other jobs (parallel compilation). With -populate_cache=0, there are more yield opportunities with parallel table growth. On an otherwise unloaded system, we still see very small (single digit) yield counts, with a chance of getting into the thousands, and getting into 10s of thousands per second during table growth phase if the system is loaded with other jobs. However, I am not worried about this if performance is still good (see next section). ## Overall performance Although cache_bench initially suggested performance very close to FixedHCC, there was a very noticeable performance hit under a db_bench setup like used in validating https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/10626. Much of the difference has been reduced by optimizing Lookup with a "naive" pass that will almost always find entries quickly, and only falling back to the careful Lookup algorithm when not found in the first pass. Setups (chosen to be sensitive to block cache performance), and compiled with USE_CLANG=1 JEMALLOC=1 PORTABLE=0 DEBUG_LEVEL=0: ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm base/db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` ### No regression on FixedHCC Running before & after builds at the same time on a 48 core machine. ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm /usr/bin/time ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom[-X10],block_cache_entry_stats,cache_report_problems -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=610000000 -duration 20 -threads=24 -cache_type=fixed_hyper_clock_cache -seed=1234 ``` Before: readrandom [AVG 10 runs] : 847234 (± 8150) ops/sec; 59.2 (± 0.6) MB/sec 703MB max RSS After: readrandom [AVG 10 runs] : 851021 (± 7929) ops/sec; 59.5 (± 0.6) MB/sec 706MB max RSS Probably no material difference. ### Single-threaded performance Using `[-X2]` and `-threads=1` and `-duration=30`, running all three at the same time: lru_cache: 55100 ops/sec, then 55862 ops/sec (627MB max RSS) fixed_hyper_clock_cache: 60496 ops/sec, then 61231 ops/sec (626MB max RSS) auto_hyper_clock_cache: 47560 ops/sec, then 56081 ops/sec (626MB max RSS) So AutoHCC has more ramp-up cost in the first pass as the cache grows to the appropriate size. (In single-threaded operation, the parallelizability and per-op low latency of table growth is overall slower.) However, once up to size, its performance is comparable to LRUCache. FixedHCC's lean operations still win overall when a good estimate is available. If we look at HCC table stats, we can see that this configuration is not favorable to AutoHCC (and I have verified that other memory sizes do not yield substantially different results, until shards are under-sized for the full filters): FixedHCC: Slot occupancy stats: Overall 47% (124991/262144), Min/Max/Window = 28%/64%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 17/22 AutoHCC: Slot occupancy stats: Overall 59% (125781/209682), Min/Max/Window = 43%/82%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 76/16 Head occupancy stats: Overall 43% (92259/209682), Min/Max/Window = 24%/74%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 19/26 Entries at home count: 53350 FixedHCC configuration is relatively good for speed, and not ideal for space utilization. As is typical, AutoHCC has tighter control on metadata usage (209682 x 64 bytes rather than 262144 x 64 bytes), and the higher load factor is slightly worse for speed. LRUCache also has more metadata usage, at 199680 x 96 bytes of tracked metadata (plus roughly another 10% of that untracked in the head pointers), and that metadata is subject to fragmentation. ### Parallel performance, high hit rate Now using `[-X10]` and `-threads=10`, all three at the same time lru_cache: [AVG 10 runs] : 263629 (± 1425) ops/sec; 18.4 (± 0.1) MB/sec 655MB max RSS, 97.1% cache hit rate fixed_hyper_clock_cache: [AVG 10 runs] : 479590 (± 8114) ops/sec; 33.5 (± 0.6) MB/sec 651MB max RSS, 97.1% cache hit rate auto_hyper_clock_cache: [AVG 10 runs] : 418687 (± 5915) ops/sec; 29.3 (± 0.4) MB/sec 657MB max RSS, 97.1% cache hit rate Even with just 10-way parallelism for each cache (though 30+/48 cores busy overall), LRUCache is already showing performance degradation, while AutoHCC is in the neighborhood of FixedHCC. And that brings us to the question of how AutoHCC holds up under extreme parallelism, so now independent runs with `-threads=100` (overloading 48 cores). lru_cache: 438613 ops/sec, 827MB max RSS fixed_hyper_clock_cache: 1651310 ops/sec, 812MB max RSS auto_hyper_clock_cache: 1505875 ops/sec, 821MB max RSS (Yield count: 1089 over 30s) Clearly, AutoHCC holds up extremely well under extreme parallelism, even closing some of the modest performance gap with FixedHCC. ### Parallel performance, low hit rate To get down to roughly 50% cache hit rate, we use `-cache_index_and_filter_blocks=0 -cache_size=1650000000` with `-threads=10`. Here the extra cost of running counting clock eviction, especially on the chains of AutoHCC, are evident, especially with the lower contention of cache_index_and_filter_blocks=0: lru_cache: 725231 ops/sec, 1770MB max RSS, 51.3% hit rate fixed_hyper_clock_cache: 638620 ops/sec, 1765MB max RSS, 50.2% hit rate auto_hyper_clock_cache: 541018 ops/sec, 1777MB max RSS, 50.8% hit rate Reviewed By: jowlyzhang Differential Revision: D48784755 Pulled By: pdillinger fbshipit-source-id: e79813dc087474ac427637dd282a14fa3011a6e4

// * Eviction on insertion is fully parallel.
Revamp, optimize new experimental clock cache (#10626) Summary: * Consolidates most metadata into a single word per slot so that more can be accomplished with a single atomic update. In the common case, Lookup was previously about 4 atomic updates, now just 1 atomic update. Common case Release was previously 1 atomic read + 1 atomic update, now just 1 atomic update. * Eliminate spins / waits / yields, which likely threaten some "lock free" benefits. Compare-exchange loops are only used in explicit Erase, and strict_capacity_limit=true Insert. Eviction uses opportunistic compare- exchange. * Relaxes some aggressiveness and guarantees. For example, * Duplicate Inserts will sometimes go undetected and the shadow duplicate will age out with eviction. * In many cases, the older Inserted value for a given cache key will be kept (i.e. Insert does not support overwrite). * Entries explicitly erased (rather than evicted) might not be freed immediately in some rare cases. * With strict_capacity_limit=false, capacity limit is not tracked/enforced as precisely as LRUCache, but is self-correcting and should only deviate by a very small number of extra or fewer entries. * Use smaller "computed default" number of cache shards in many cases, because benefits to larger usage tracking / eviction pools outweigh the small cost of more lock-free atomic contention. The improvement in CPU and I/O is dramatic in some limit-memory cases. * Even without the sharding change, the eviction algorithm is likely more effective than LRU overall because it's more stateful, even though the "hot path" state tracking for it is essentially free with ref counting. It is like a generalized CLOCK with aging (see code comments). I don't have performance numbers showing a specific improvement, but in theory, for a Poisson access pattern to each block, keeping some state allows better estimation of time to next access (Poisson interval) than strict LRU. The bounded randomness in CLOCK can also reduce "cliff" effect for repeated range scans approaching and exceeding cache size. ## Hot path algorithm comparison Rough descriptions, focusing on number and kind of atomic operations: * Old `Lookup()` (2-5 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment internal ref count at slot If possible hit: Check flags atomic (and non-atomic fields) If cache hit: Three distinct updates to 'flags' atomic Increment refs for internal-to-external Return Decrement internal ref count while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * New `Lookup()` (1-2 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment acquire counter in meta word (optimistic) If visible entry (already read meta word): If match (read non-atomic fields): Return Else: Decrement acquire counter in meta word Else if invisible entry (rare, already read meta word): Decrement acquire counter in meta word while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * Old `Release()` (1 atomic update, conditional on atomic read, rarely more): ``` Read atomic ref count If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return Else: Decrement ref count ``` * New `Release()` (1 unconditional atomic update, rarely more): ``` Increment release counter in meta word If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return ``` ## Performance test setup Build DB with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` Test with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=${CACHE_MB}000000 -duration 60 -threads=$THREADS -statistics ``` Numbers on a single socket Skylake Xeon system with 48 hardware threads, DEBUG_LEVEL=0 PORTABLE=0.

Mutex-based implementation quickly becomes contention-limited. New clock cache shows essentially perfect scaling up to number of physical cores (24), and then each hyperthreaded core adding about 1/4 the throughput of an additional physical core (see 48 thread case). Block cache miss rates (omitted above) are negligible across the board. With partitioned instead of full filters, the maximum speed-up vs. base is more like 2.5x rather than 5x. Now test a large block cache with low miss ratio, but some eviction is required: 1597MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 46.603 io_bytes/op: 1584.63 miss_ratio: 0.0201066 max_rss_mb: 1589.23 1597MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 45.079 io_bytes/op: 1530.03 miss_ratio: 0.019872 max_rss_mb: 1550.43 1597MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 48.711 io_bytes/op: 1566.63 miss_ratio: 0.0198923 max_rss_mb: 1691.4 1597MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 51.531 io_bytes/op: 1589.07 miss_ratio: 0.0201969 max_rss_mb: 1583.56 1597MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 301.174 io_bytes/op: 1439.52 miss_ratio: 0.0184218 max_rss_mb: 1656.59 1597MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 273.09 io_bytes/op: 1375.12 miss_ratio: 0.0180002 max_rss_mb: 1586.8 1597MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 904.497 io_bytes/op: 1411.29 miss_ratio: 0.0179934 max_rss_mb: 1775.89 1597MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1182.59 io_bytes/op: 1440.77 miss_ratio: 0.0185449 max_rss_mb: 1636.45 1597MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 309.91 io_bytes/op: 1438.25 miss_ratio: 0.018399 max_rss_mb: 1689.98 1597MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 267.605 io_bytes/op: 1394.16 miss_ratio: 0.0180286 max_rss_mb: 1631.91 1597MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 691.518 io_bytes/op: 9056.73 miss_ratio: 0.0186572 max_rss_mb: 1982.26 1597MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1406.12 io_bytes/op: 1440.82 miss_ratio: 0.0185463 max_rss_mb: 1685.63 610MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 45.511 io_bytes/op: 2279.61 miss_ratio: 0.0290528 max_rss_mb: 615.137 610MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 43.386 io_bytes/op: 2217.29 miss_ratio: 0.0289282 max_rss_mb: 600.996 610MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 46.207 io_bytes/op: 2275.51 miss_ratio: 0.0290057 max_rss_mb: 637.934 610MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 48.879 io_bytes/op: 2283.1 miss_ratio: 0.0291253 max_rss_mb: 613.5 610MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 306.59 io_bytes/op: 2250 miss_ratio: 0.0288721 max_rss_mb: 683.402 610MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 269.176 io_bytes/op: 2187.86 miss_ratio: 0.0286938 max_rss_mb: 628.742 610MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 855.097 io_bytes/op: 2279.26 miss_ratio: 0.0288009 max_rss_mb: 733.062 610MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1121.47 io_bytes/op: 2244.29 miss_ratio: 0.0289046 max_rss_mb: 666.453 610MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 305.079 io_bytes/op: 2252.43 miss_ratio: 0.0288884 max_rss_mb: 723.457 610MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 269.583 io_bytes/op: 2204.58 miss_ratio: 0.0287001 max_rss_mb: 676.426 610MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 53.298 io_bytes/op: 8128.98 miss_ratio: 0.0292452 max_rss_mb: 956.273 610MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1301.09 io_bytes/op: 2246.04 miss_ratio: 0.0289171 max_rss_mb: 788.812 The new version is still winning every time, sometimes dramatically so, and we can tell from the maximum resident memory numbers (which contain some noise, by the way) that the new cache is not cheating on memory usage.

This new clock cache only uses two shards for this configuration, and that helps to ensure that entries are part of a sufficiently big pool that their eviction order resembles the single-shard order.

Automatic table sizing for HyperClockCache (AutoHCC) (#11738) Summary: This change add an experimental next-generation HyperClockCache (HCC) with automatic sizing of the underlying hash table. Both the existing version (stable) and the new version (experimental for now) of HCC are available depending on whether an estimated average entry charge is provided in HyperClockCacheOptions. Internally, we call the two implementations AutoHyperClockCache (new) and FixedHyperClockCache (existing). The performance characteristics and much of the underlying logic are similar enough that AutoHCC is likely to make FixedHCC obsolete, and so it's best considered an evolution of the same technology or solution rather than an alternative. More specifically, both implementations share essentially the same logic for managing the state of individual entries in the cache, including metadata for reference counting and counting clocks for eviction. This metadata, which I like to call the "low-level HCC protocol," includes a read-write lock on entries, but relaxed consistency requirements on the cache (e.g. allowing rare duplication) means high-level cache operations never wait for these low-level per-entry locks. FixedHCC is fully wait-free. AutoHCC is different in how entries are indexed into an efficient hash table. AutoHCC is "essentially wait-free" as there is no pattern of typical high-level operations on a large cache that can lead to one thread waiting on another to complete some work, though it can happen in some unusual/unlucky cases, or atypical uses such as erasing specific cache keys. Table growth and entry reclamation is more complex in AutoHCC compared to FixedHCC, so uses some localized locking to manage that. AutoHCC uses linear hashing to grow the table as needed, with low latency and to a precise size. AutoHCC depends on anonymous mmap support from the OS (currently verified working on Linux, MacOS, and Windows) to allow the array underlying a hash table to grow in place without wasting resident memory on space reserved but unused. AutoHCC uses a form of chaining while FixedHCC uses open addressing and double hashing. More specifics: * In developing this PR, a rare availability bug (minor) was noticed in the existing HCC implementation of Release()+erase_if_last_ref, which is now inherited into AutoHCC. Fixing this without a performance regression will not be simple, so is left for follow-up work. * Some existing unit tests required adjustment of operational parameters or conditions to work with the new behaviors of AutoHCC. A number of bugs were found and fixed in the validation process, including getting unit tests in good working order. * Added an option to cache_bench, `-degenerate_hash_bits` for correctness stress testing described below. For this, the tool uses the reverse-engineered hash function for HCC to generate keys in which the specified number of hash bits, in critical positions, have a fixed value. Essentially each degenerate hash bit will half the number of chain heads utilized and double the average chain length. Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/11738 Test Plan: unit tests updated, and already added to db crash test. Also ## Correctness The code includes generous assertions to check for unexpected states, especially at destruction time, so should be able to detect critical concurrency bugs. Less serious "availability bugs" in which cache data is hidden or cleanly lost are more difficult to detect, but also less scary for data correctness (as long as performance is good and the design is sound). In average operation, the structure is extremely low stress and low contention (see next section) so stressing the corner case logic requires artificially stressing the operating conditions. First, we keep the structure small to increase the number of threads hitting the same chain or entry, and just one cache shard. Second, we artificially degrade the hashing so that chains are much longer than typical, using the new `-degenerate_hash_bits` option to cache_bench. Third, we re-create the structure from scratch frequently in order to exercise the Grow logic repeatedly and to get the benefit of the consistency checks in the structure's destructor in debug builds. For cache_bench this also means disabling the single-threaded "populate cache" step (normally used for steady state performance testing). And of course use many more threads than cores to have many preemptions. An effective test for working out bugs was this (using debug build of course): ``` while ./cache_bench -cache_type=auto_hyper_clock_cache -histograms=0 -cache_size=8000000 -threads=100 -populate_cache=0 -ops_per_thread=10000 -degenerate_hash_bits=6 -num_shard_bits=0; do :; done ``` Or even smaller cases. This setup has around 27 utilized chains, with around 35 entries each, and yield-waits more than 1 million times per second (very high contention; see next section). I have let this run for hours searching for any lingering issues. I've also run cache_bench under ASAN, UBSAN, and TSAN. ## Essentially wait free There is a counter for number of yield() calls when one thread is waiting on another. When we pre-populate the structure in a single thread, ``` ./cache_bench -cache_type=auto_hyper_clock_cache -histograms=0 -populate_cache=1 -ops_per_thread=200000 2>&1 | grep Yield ``` We see something on the order of 1 yield call per second across 16 threads, even when we load the system other other jobs (parallel compilation). With -populate_cache=0, there are more yield opportunities with parallel table growth. On an otherwise unloaded system, we still see very small (single digit) yield counts, with a chance of getting into the thousands, and getting into 10s of thousands per second during table growth phase if the system is loaded with other jobs. However, I am not worried about this if performance is still good (see next section). ## Overall performance Although cache_bench initially suggested performance very close to FixedHCC, there was a very noticeable performance hit under a db_bench setup like used in validating https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/10626. Much of the difference has been reduced by optimizing Lookup with a "naive" pass that will almost always find entries quickly, and only falling back to the careful Lookup algorithm when not found in the first pass. Setups (chosen to be sensitive to block cache performance), and compiled with USE_CLANG=1 JEMALLOC=1 PORTABLE=0 DEBUG_LEVEL=0: ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm base/db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` ### No regression on FixedHCC Running before & after builds at the same time on a 48 core machine. ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm /usr/bin/time ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom[-X10],block_cache_entry_stats,cache_report_problems -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=610000000 -duration 20 -threads=24 -cache_type=fixed_hyper_clock_cache -seed=1234 ``` Before: readrandom [AVG 10 runs] : 847234 (± 8150) ops/sec; 59.2 (± 0.6) MB/sec 703MB max RSS After: readrandom [AVG 10 runs] : 851021 (± 7929) ops/sec; 59.5 (± 0.6) MB/sec 706MB max RSS Probably no material difference. ### Single-threaded performance Using `[-X2]` and `-threads=1` and `-duration=30`, running all three at the same time: lru_cache: 55100 ops/sec, then 55862 ops/sec (627MB max RSS) fixed_hyper_clock_cache: 60496 ops/sec, then 61231 ops/sec (626MB max RSS) auto_hyper_clock_cache: 47560 ops/sec, then 56081 ops/sec (626MB max RSS) So AutoHCC has more ramp-up cost in the first pass as the cache grows to the appropriate size. (In single-threaded operation, the parallelizability and per-op low latency of table growth is overall slower.) However, once up to size, its performance is comparable to LRUCache. FixedHCC's lean operations still win overall when a good estimate is available. If we look at HCC table stats, we can see that this configuration is not favorable to AutoHCC (and I have verified that other memory sizes do not yield substantially different results, until shards are under-sized for the full filters): FixedHCC: Slot occupancy stats: Overall 47% (124991/262144), Min/Max/Window = 28%/64%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 17/22 AutoHCC: Slot occupancy stats: Overall 59% (125781/209682), Min/Max/Window = 43%/82%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 76/16 Head occupancy stats: Overall 43% (92259/209682), Min/Max/Window = 24%/74%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 19/26 Entries at home count: 53350 FixedHCC configuration is relatively good for speed, and not ideal for space utilization. As is typical, AutoHCC has tighter control on metadata usage (209682 x 64 bytes rather than 262144 x 64 bytes), and the higher load factor is slightly worse for speed. LRUCache also has more metadata usage, at 199680 x 96 bytes of tracked metadata (plus roughly another 10% of that untracked in the head pointers), and that metadata is subject to fragmentation. ### Parallel performance, high hit rate Now using `[-X10]` and `-threads=10`, all three at the same time lru_cache: [AVG 10 runs] : 263629 (± 1425) ops/sec; 18.4 (± 0.1) MB/sec 655MB max RSS, 97.1% cache hit rate fixed_hyper_clock_cache: [AVG 10 runs] : 479590 (± 8114) ops/sec; 33.5 (± 0.6) MB/sec 651MB max RSS, 97.1% cache hit rate auto_hyper_clock_cache: [AVG 10 runs] : 418687 (± 5915) ops/sec; 29.3 (± 0.4) MB/sec 657MB max RSS, 97.1% cache hit rate Even with just 10-way parallelism for each cache (though 30+/48 cores busy overall), LRUCache is already showing performance degradation, while AutoHCC is in the neighborhood of FixedHCC. And that brings us to the question of how AutoHCC holds up under extreme parallelism, so now independent runs with `-threads=100` (overloading 48 cores). lru_cache: 438613 ops/sec, 827MB max RSS fixed_hyper_clock_cache: 1651310 ops/sec, 812MB max RSS auto_hyper_clock_cache: 1505875 ops/sec, 821MB max RSS (Yield count: 1089 over 30s) Clearly, AutoHCC holds up extremely well under extreme parallelism, even closing some of the modest performance gap with FixedHCC. ### Parallel performance, low hit rate To get down to roughly 50% cache hit rate, we use `-cache_index_and_filter_blocks=0 -cache_size=1650000000` with `-threads=10`. Here the extra cost of running counting clock eviction, especially on the chains of AutoHCC, are evident, especially with the lower contention of cache_index_and_filter_blocks=0: lru_cache: 725231 ops/sec, 1770MB max RSS, 51.3% hit rate fixed_hyper_clock_cache: 638620 ops/sec, 1765MB max RSS, 50.2% hit rate auto_hyper_clock_cache: 541018 ops/sec, 1777MB max RSS, 50.8% hit rate Reviewed By: jowlyzhang Differential Revision: D48784755 Pulled By: pdillinger fbshipit-source-id: e79813dc087474ac427637dd282a14fa3011a6e4

Revamp, optimize new experimental clock cache (#10626) Summary: * Consolidates most metadata into a single word per slot so that more can be accomplished with a single atomic update. In the common case, Lookup was previously about 4 atomic updates, now just 1 atomic update. Common case Release was previously 1 atomic read + 1 atomic update, now just 1 atomic update. * Eliminate spins / waits / yields, which likely threaten some "lock free" benefits. Compare-exchange loops are only used in explicit Erase, and strict_capacity_limit=true Insert. Eviction uses opportunistic compare- exchange. * Relaxes some aggressiveness and guarantees. For example, * Duplicate Inserts will sometimes go undetected and the shadow duplicate will age out with eviction. * In many cases, the older Inserted value for a given cache key will be kept (i.e. Insert does not support overwrite). * Entries explicitly erased (rather than evicted) might not be freed immediately in some rare cases. * With strict_capacity_limit=false, capacity limit is not tracked/enforced as precisely as LRUCache, but is self-correcting and should only deviate by a very small number of extra or fewer entries. * Use smaller "computed default" number of cache shards in many cases, because benefits to larger usage tracking / eviction pools outweigh the small cost of more lock-free atomic contention. The improvement in CPU and I/O is dramatic in some limit-memory cases. * Even without the sharding change, the eviction algorithm is likely more effective than LRU overall because it's more stateful, even though the "hot path" state tracking for it is essentially free with ref counting. It is like a generalized CLOCK with aging (see code comments). I don't have performance numbers showing a specific improvement, but in theory, for a Poisson access pattern to each block, keeping some state allows better estimation of time to next access (Poisson interval) than strict LRU. The bounded randomness in CLOCK can also reduce "cliff" effect for repeated range scans approaching and exceeding cache size. ## Hot path algorithm comparison Rough descriptions, focusing on number and kind of atomic operations: * Old `Lookup()` (2-5 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment internal ref count at slot If possible hit: Check flags atomic (and non-atomic fields) If cache hit: Three distinct updates to 'flags' atomic Increment refs for internal-to-external Return Decrement internal ref count while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * New `Lookup()` (1-2 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment acquire counter in meta word (optimistic) If visible entry (already read meta word): If match (read non-atomic fields): Return Else: Decrement acquire counter in meta word Else if invisible entry (rare, already read meta word): Decrement acquire counter in meta word while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * Old `Release()` (1 atomic update, conditional on atomic read, rarely more): ``` Read atomic ref count If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return Else: Decrement ref count ``` * New `Release()` (1 unconditional atomic update, rarely more): ``` Increment release counter in meta word If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return ``` ## Performance test setup Build DB with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` Test with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=${CACHE_MB}000000 -duration 60 -threads=$THREADS -statistics ``` Numbers on a single socket Skylake Xeon system with 48 hardware threads, DEBUG_LEVEL=0 PORTABLE=0.

Configurations: base: LRUCache before this change, but with db_bench change to default cache_numshardbits=-1 (instead of fixed at 6) folly: LRUCache before this change, with folly enabled (distributed mutex) but on an old compiler (sorry) gt_clock: experimental ClockCache before this change new_clock: experimental ClockCache with this change ## Performance test results First test "hot path" read performance, with block cache large enough for whole DB: 4181MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 47.761 4181MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 45.877 4181MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 51.092 4181MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 53.944 4181MB 16thread base -> kops/s: 284.567 4181MB 16thread folly -> kops/s: 249.015 4181MB 16thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 743.762 4181MB 16thread new_clock -> kops/s: 861.821 4181MB 24thread base -> kops/s: 303.415 4181MB 24thread folly -> kops/s: 266.548 4181MB 24thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 975.706 4181MB 24thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1205.64 (~= 24 * 53.944) 4181MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 311.251 4181MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 274.952 4181MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 1045.98 4181MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1370.38 4181MB 48thread base -> kops/s: 310.504 4181MB 48thread folly -> kops/s: 268.322 4181MB 48thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 1195.65 4181MB 48thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1604.85 (~= 24 * 1.25 * 53.944) 4181MB 64thread base -> kops/s: 307.839 4181MB 64thread folly -> kops/s: 272.172 4181MB 64thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 1204.47 4181MB 64thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1615.37 4181MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 310.934 4181MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 267.468 4181MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 1188.75 4181MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1595.46 Whether we have just one thread on a quiet system or an overload of threads, the new version wins every time in thousand-ops per second, sometimes dramatically so. Mutex-based implementation quickly becomes contention-limited. New clock cache shows essentially perfect scaling up to number of physical cores (24), and then each hyperthreaded core adding about 1/4 the throughput of an additional physical core (see 48 thread case). Block cache miss rates (omitted above) are negligible across the board. With partitioned instead of full filters, the maximum speed-up vs. base is more like 2.5x rather than 5x. Now test a large block cache with low miss ratio, but some eviction is required: 1597MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 46.603 io_bytes/op: 1584.63 miss_ratio: 0.0201066 max_rss_mb: 1589.23 1597MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 45.079 io_bytes/op: 1530.03 miss_ratio: 0.019872 max_rss_mb: 1550.43 1597MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 48.711 io_bytes/op: 1566.63 miss_ratio: 0.0198923 max_rss_mb: 1691.4 1597MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 51.531 io_bytes/op: 1589.07 miss_ratio: 0.0201969 max_rss_mb: 1583.56 1597MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 301.174 io_bytes/op: 1439.52 miss_ratio: 0.0184218 max_rss_mb: 1656.59 1597MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 273.09 io_bytes/op: 1375.12 miss_ratio: 0.0180002 max_rss_mb: 1586.8 1597MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 904.497 io_bytes/op: 1411.29 miss_ratio: 0.0179934 max_rss_mb: 1775.89 1597MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1182.59 io_bytes/op: 1440.77 miss_ratio: 0.0185449 max_rss_mb: 1636.45 1597MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 309.91 io_bytes/op: 1438.25 miss_ratio: 0.018399 max_rss_mb: 1689.98 1597MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 267.605 io_bytes/op: 1394.16 miss_ratio: 0.0180286 max_rss_mb: 1631.91 1597MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 691.518 io_bytes/op: 9056.73 miss_ratio: 0.0186572 max_rss_mb: 1982.26 1597MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1406.12 io_bytes/op: 1440.82 miss_ratio: 0.0185463 max_rss_mb: 1685.63 610MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 45.511 io_bytes/op: 2279.61 miss_ratio: 0.0290528 max_rss_mb: 615.137 610MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 43.386 io_bytes/op: 2217.29 miss_ratio: 0.0289282 max_rss_mb: 600.996 610MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 46.207 io_bytes/op: 2275.51 miss_ratio: 0.0290057 max_rss_mb: 637.934 610MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 48.879 io_bytes/op: 2283.1 miss_ratio: 0.0291253 max_rss_mb: 613.5 610MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 306.59 io_bytes/op: 2250 miss_ratio: 0.0288721 max_rss_mb: 683.402 610MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 269.176 io_bytes/op: 2187.86 miss_ratio: 0.0286938 max_rss_mb: 628.742 610MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 855.097 io_bytes/op: 2279.26 miss_ratio: 0.0288009 max_rss_mb: 733.062 610MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1121.47 io_bytes/op: 2244.29 miss_ratio: 0.0289046 max_rss_mb: 666.453 610MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 305.079 io_bytes/op: 2252.43 miss_ratio: 0.0288884 max_rss_mb: 723.457 610MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 269.583 io_bytes/op: 2204.58 miss_ratio: 0.0287001 max_rss_mb: 676.426 610MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 53.298 io_bytes/op: 8128.98 miss_ratio: 0.0292452 max_rss_mb: 956.273 610MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1301.09 io_bytes/op: 2246.04 miss_ratio: 0.0289171 max_rss_mb: 788.812 The new version is still winning every time, sometimes dramatically so, and we can tell from the maximum resident memory numbers (which contain some noise, by the way) that the new cache is not cheating on memory usage. IMPORTANT: The previous generation experimental clock cache appears to hit a serious bottleneck in the higher thread count configurations, presumably due to some of its waiting functionality. (The same bottleneck is not seen with partitioned index+filters.) Now we consider even smaller cache sizes, with higher miss ratios, eviction work, etc. 233MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 10.557 io_bytes/op: 227040 miss_ratio: 0.0403105 max_rss_mb: 247.371 233MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 15.348 io_bytes/op: 112007 miss_ratio: 0.0372238 max_rss_mb: 245.293 233MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 6.365 io_bytes/op: 244854 miss_ratio: 0.0413873 max_rss_mb: 259.844 233MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 47.501 io_bytes/op: 2591.93 miss_ratio: 0.0330989 max_rss_mb: 242.461 233MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 96.498 io_bytes/op: 363379 miss_ratio: 0.0459966 max_rss_mb: 479.227 233MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 109.95 io_bytes/op: 314799 miss_ratio: 0.0450032 max_rss_mb: 400.738 233MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 2.353 io_bytes/op: 385397 miss_ratio: 0.048445 max_rss_mb: 500.688 233MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1088.95 io_bytes/op: 2567.02 miss_ratio: 0.0330593 max_rss_mb: 303.402 233MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 84.302 io_bytes/op: 378020 miss_ratio: 0.0466558 max_rss_mb: 1051.84 233MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 89.921 io_bytes/op: 338242 miss_ratio: 0.0460309 max_rss_mb: 812.785 233MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 2.588 io_bytes/op: 462833 miss_ratio: 0.0509158 max_rss_mb: 1109.94 233MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1299.26 io_bytes/op: 2565.94 miss_ratio: 0.0330531 max_rss_mb: 361.016 89MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 0.574 io_bytes/op: 5.35977e+06 miss_ratio: 0.274427 max_rss_mb: 91.3086 89MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 0.578 io_bytes/op: 5.16549e+06 miss_ratio: 0.27276 max_rss_mb: 96.8984 89MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 0.512 io_bytes/op: 4.13111e+06 miss_ratio: 0.242817 max_rss_mb: 119.441 89MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 48.172 io_bytes/op: 2709.76 miss_ratio: 0.0346162 max_rss_mb: 100.754 89MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 5.779 io_bytes/op: 6.14192e+06 miss_ratio: 0.320399 max_rss_mb: 311.812 89MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 5.601 io_bytes/op: 5.83838e+06 miss_ratio: 0.313123 max_rss_mb: 252.418 89MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 0.77 io_bytes/op: 3.99236e+06 miss_ratio: 0.236296 max_rss_mb: 396.422 89MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1064.97 io_bytes/op: 2687.23 miss_ratio: 0.0346134 max_rss_mb: 155.293 89MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 4.959 io_bytes/op: 6.20297e+06 miss_ratio: 0.323945 max_rss_mb: 823.43 89MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 4.962 io_bytes/op: 5.9601e+06 miss_ratio: 0.319857 max_rss_mb: 626.824 89MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 1.009 io_bytes/op: 4.1083e+06 miss_ratio: 0.242512 max_rss_mb: 1095.32 89MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1224.39 io_bytes/op: 2688.2 miss_ratio: 0.0346207 max_rss_mb: 218.223 ^ Now something interesting has happened: the new clock cache has gained a dramatic lead in the single-threaded case, and this is because the cache is so small, and full filters are so big, that dividing the cache into 64 shards leads to significant (random) imbalances in cache shards and excessive churn in imbalanced shards. This new clock cache only uses two shards for this configuration, and that helps to ensure that entries are part of a sufficiently big pool that their eviction order resembles the single-shard order.

Automatic table sizing for HyperClockCache (AutoHCC) (#11738) Summary: This change add an experimental next-generation HyperClockCache (HCC) with automatic sizing of the underlying hash table. Both the existing version (stable) and the new version (experimental for now) of HCC are available depending on whether an estimated average entry charge is provided in HyperClockCacheOptions. Internally, we call the two implementations AutoHyperClockCache (new) and FixedHyperClockCache (existing). The performance characteristics and much of the underlying logic are similar enough that AutoHCC is likely to make FixedHCC obsolete, and so it's best considered an evolution of the same technology or solution rather than an alternative. More specifically, both implementations share essentially the same logic for managing the state of individual entries in the cache, including metadata for reference counting and counting clocks for eviction. This metadata, which I like to call the "low-level HCC protocol," includes a read-write lock on entries, but relaxed consistency requirements on the cache (e.g. allowing rare duplication) means high-level cache operations never wait for these low-level per-entry locks. FixedHCC is fully wait-free. AutoHCC is different in how entries are indexed into an efficient hash table. AutoHCC is "essentially wait-free" as there is no pattern of typical high-level operations on a large cache that can lead to one thread waiting on another to complete some work, though it can happen in some unusual/unlucky cases, or atypical uses such as erasing specific cache keys. Table growth and entry reclamation is more complex in AutoHCC compared to FixedHCC, so uses some localized locking to manage that. AutoHCC uses linear hashing to grow the table as needed, with low latency and to a precise size. AutoHCC depends on anonymous mmap support from the OS (currently verified working on Linux, MacOS, and Windows) to allow the array underlying a hash table to grow in place without wasting resident memory on space reserved but unused. AutoHCC uses a form of chaining while FixedHCC uses open addressing and double hashing. More specifics: * In developing this PR, a rare availability bug (minor) was noticed in the existing HCC implementation of Release()+erase_if_last_ref, which is now inherited into AutoHCC. Fixing this without a performance regression will not be simple, so is left for follow-up work. * Some existing unit tests required adjustment of operational parameters or conditions to work with the new behaviors of AutoHCC. A number of bugs were found and fixed in the validation process, including getting unit tests in good working order. * Added an option to cache_bench, `-degenerate_hash_bits` for correctness stress testing described below. For this, the tool uses the reverse-engineered hash function for HCC to generate keys in which the specified number of hash bits, in critical positions, have a fixed value. Essentially each degenerate hash bit will half the number of chain heads utilized and double the average chain length. Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/11738 Test Plan: unit tests updated, and already added to db crash test. Also ## Correctness The code includes generous assertions to check for unexpected states, especially at destruction time, so should be able to detect critical concurrency bugs. Less serious "availability bugs" in which cache data is hidden or cleanly lost are more difficult to detect, but also less scary for data correctness (as long as performance is good and the design is sound). In average operation, the structure is extremely low stress and low contention (see next section) so stressing the corner case logic requires artificially stressing the operating conditions. First, we keep the structure small to increase the number of threads hitting the same chain or entry, and just one cache shard. Second, we artificially degrade the hashing so that chains are much longer than typical, using the new `-degenerate_hash_bits` option to cache_bench. Third, we re-create the structure from scratch frequently in order to exercise the Grow logic repeatedly and to get the benefit of the consistency checks in the structure's destructor in debug builds. For cache_bench this also means disabling the single-threaded "populate cache" step (normally used for steady state performance testing). And of course use many more threads than cores to have many preemptions. An effective test for working out bugs was this (using debug build of course): ``` while ./cache_bench -cache_type=auto_hyper_clock_cache -histograms=0 -cache_size=8000000 -threads=100 -populate_cache=0 -ops_per_thread=10000 -degenerate_hash_bits=6 -num_shard_bits=0; do :; done ``` Or even smaller cases. This setup has around 27 utilized chains, with around 35 entries each, and yield-waits more than 1 million times per second (very high contention; see next section). I have let this run for hours searching for any lingering issues. I've also run cache_bench under ASAN, UBSAN, and TSAN. ## Essentially wait free There is a counter for number of yield() calls when one thread is waiting on another. When we pre-populate the structure in a single thread, ``` ./cache_bench -cache_type=auto_hyper_clock_cache -histograms=0 -populate_cache=1 -ops_per_thread=200000 2>&1 | grep Yield ``` We see something on the order of 1 yield call per second across 16 threads, even when we load the system other other jobs (parallel compilation). With -populate_cache=0, there are more yield opportunities with parallel table growth. On an otherwise unloaded system, we still see very small (single digit) yield counts, with a chance of getting into the thousands, and getting into 10s of thousands per second during table growth phase if the system is loaded with other jobs. However, I am not worried about this if performance is still good (see next section). ## Overall performance Although cache_bench initially suggested performance very close to FixedHCC, there was a very noticeable performance hit under a db_bench setup like used in validating https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/10626. Much of the difference has been reduced by optimizing Lookup with a "naive" pass that will almost always find entries quickly, and only falling back to the careful Lookup algorithm when not found in the first pass. Setups (chosen to be sensitive to block cache performance), and compiled with USE_CLANG=1 JEMALLOC=1 PORTABLE=0 DEBUG_LEVEL=0: ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm base/db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` ### No regression on FixedHCC Running before & after builds at the same time on a 48 core machine. ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm /usr/bin/time ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom[-X10],block_cache_entry_stats,cache_report_problems -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=610000000 -duration 20 -threads=24 -cache_type=fixed_hyper_clock_cache -seed=1234 ``` Before: readrandom [AVG 10 runs] : 847234 (± 8150) ops/sec; 59.2 (± 0.6) MB/sec 703MB max RSS After: readrandom [AVG 10 runs] : 851021 (± 7929) ops/sec; 59.5 (± 0.6) MB/sec 706MB max RSS Probably no material difference. ### Single-threaded performance Using `[-X2]` and `-threads=1` and `-duration=30`, running all three at the same time: lru_cache: 55100 ops/sec, then 55862 ops/sec (627MB max RSS) fixed_hyper_clock_cache: 60496 ops/sec, then 61231 ops/sec (626MB max RSS) auto_hyper_clock_cache: 47560 ops/sec, then 56081 ops/sec (626MB max RSS) So AutoHCC has more ramp-up cost in the first pass as the cache grows to the appropriate size. (In single-threaded operation, the parallelizability and per-op low latency of table growth is overall slower.) However, once up to size, its performance is comparable to LRUCache. FixedHCC's lean operations still win overall when a good estimate is available. If we look at HCC table stats, we can see that this configuration is not favorable to AutoHCC (and I have verified that other memory sizes do not yield substantially different results, until shards are under-sized for the full filters): FixedHCC: Slot occupancy stats: Overall 47% (124991/262144), Min/Max/Window = 28%/64%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 17/22 AutoHCC: Slot occupancy stats: Overall 59% (125781/209682), Min/Max/Window = 43%/82%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 76/16 Head occupancy stats: Overall 43% (92259/209682), Min/Max/Window = 24%/74%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 19/26 Entries at home count: 53350 FixedHCC configuration is relatively good for speed, and not ideal for space utilization. As is typical, AutoHCC has tighter control on metadata usage (209682 x 64 bytes rather than 262144 x 64 bytes), and the higher load factor is slightly worse for speed. LRUCache also has more metadata usage, at 199680 x 96 bytes of tracked metadata (plus roughly another 10% of that untracked in the head pointers), and that metadata is subject to fragmentation. ### Parallel performance, high hit rate Now using `[-X10]` and `-threads=10`, all three at the same time lru_cache: [AVG 10 runs] : 263629 (± 1425) ops/sec; 18.4 (± 0.1) MB/sec 655MB max RSS, 97.1% cache hit rate fixed_hyper_clock_cache: [AVG 10 runs] : 479590 (± 8114) ops/sec; 33.5 (± 0.6) MB/sec 651MB max RSS, 97.1% cache hit rate auto_hyper_clock_cache: [AVG 10 runs] : 418687 (± 5915) ops/sec; 29.3 (± 0.4) MB/sec 657MB max RSS, 97.1% cache hit rate Even with just 10-way parallelism for each cache (though 30+/48 cores busy overall), LRUCache is already showing performance degradation, while AutoHCC is in the neighborhood of FixedHCC. And that brings us to the question of how AutoHCC holds up under extreme parallelism, so now independent runs with `-threads=100` (overloading 48 cores). lru_cache: 438613 ops/sec, 827MB max RSS fixed_hyper_clock_cache: 1651310 ops/sec, 812MB max RSS auto_hyper_clock_cache: 1505875 ops/sec, 821MB max RSS (Yield count: 1089 over 30s) Clearly, AutoHCC holds up extremely well under extreme parallelism, even closing some of the modest performance gap with FixedHCC. ### Parallel performance, low hit rate To get down to roughly 50% cache hit rate, we use `-cache_index_and_filter_blocks=0 -cache_size=1650000000` with `-threads=10`. Here the extra cost of running counting clock eviction, especially on the chains of AutoHCC, are evident, especially with the lower contention of cache_index_and_filter_blocks=0: lru_cache: 725231 ops/sec, 1770MB max RSS, 51.3% hit rate fixed_hyper_clock_cache: 638620 ops/sec, 1765MB max RSS, 50.2% hit rate auto_hyper_clock_cache: 541018 ops/sec, 1777MB max RSS, 50.8% hit rate Reviewed By: jowlyzhang Differential Revision: D48784755 Pulled By: pdillinger fbshipit-source-id: e79813dc087474ac427637dd282a14fa3011a6e4

// EXPERIMENTAL - This limitation is fixed in AutoHyperClockCache, activated
// with estimated_entry_charge == 0.
Revamp, optimize new experimental clock cache (#10626) Summary: * Consolidates most metadata into a single word per slot so that more can be accomplished with a single atomic update. In the common case, Lookup was previously about 4 atomic updates, now just 1 atomic update. Common case Release was previously 1 atomic read + 1 atomic update, now just 1 atomic update. * Eliminate spins / waits / yields, which likely threaten some "lock free" benefits. Compare-exchange loops are only used in explicit Erase, and strict_capacity_limit=true Insert. Eviction uses opportunistic compare- exchange. * Relaxes some aggressiveness and guarantees. For example, * Duplicate Inserts will sometimes go undetected and the shadow duplicate will age out with eviction. * In many cases, the older Inserted value for a given cache key will be kept (i.e. Insert does not support overwrite). * Entries explicitly erased (rather than evicted) might not be freed immediately in some rare cases. * With strict_capacity_limit=false, capacity limit is not tracked/enforced as precisely as LRUCache, but is self-correcting and should only deviate by a very small number of extra or fewer entries. * Use smaller "computed default" number of cache shards in many cases, because benefits to larger usage tracking / eviction pools outweigh the small cost of more lock-free atomic contention. The improvement in CPU and I/O is dramatic in some limit-memory cases. * Even without the sharding change, the eviction algorithm is likely more effective than LRU overall because it's more stateful, even though the "hot path" state tracking for it is essentially free with ref counting. It is like a generalized CLOCK with aging (see code comments). I don't have performance numbers showing a specific improvement, but in theory, for a Poisson access pattern to each block, keeping some state allows better estimation of time to next access (Poisson interval) than strict LRU. The bounded randomness in CLOCK can also reduce "cliff" effect for repeated range scans approaching and exceeding cache size. ## Hot path algorithm comparison Rough descriptions, focusing on number and kind of atomic operations: * Old `Lookup()` (2-5 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment internal ref count at slot If possible hit: Check flags atomic (and non-atomic fields) If cache hit: Three distinct updates to 'flags' atomic Increment refs for internal-to-external Return Decrement internal ref count while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * New `Lookup()` (1-2 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment acquire counter in meta word (optimistic) If visible entry (already read meta word): If match (read non-atomic fields): Return Else: Decrement acquire counter in meta word Else if invisible entry (rare, already read meta word): Decrement acquire counter in meta word while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * Old `Release()` (1 atomic update, conditional on atomic read, rarely more): ``` Read atomic ref count If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return Else: Decrement ref count ``` * New `Release()` (1 unconditional atomic update, rarely more): ``` Increment release counter in meta word If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return ``` ## Performance test setup Build DB with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` Test with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=${CACHE_MB}000000 -duration 60 -threads=$THREADS -statistics ``` Numbers on a single socket Skylake Xeon system with 48 hardware threads, DEBUG_LEVEL=0 PORTABLE=0.

Mutex-based implementation quickly becomes contention-limited. New clock cache shows essentially perfect scaling up to number of physical cores (24), and then each hyperthreaded core adding about 1/4 the throughput of an additional physical core (see 48 thread case). Block cache miss rates (omitted above) are negligible across the board. With partitioned instead of full filters, the maximum speed-up vs. base is more like 2.5x rather than 5x. Now test a large block cache with low miss ratio, but some eviction is required: 1597MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 46.603 io_bytes/op: 1584.63 miss_ratio: 0.0201066 max_rss_mb: 1589.23 1597MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 45.079 io_bytes/op: 1530.03 miss_ratio: 0.019872 max_rss_mb: 1550.43 1597MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 48.711 io_bytes/op: 1566.63 miss_ratio: 0.0198923 max_rss_mb: 1691.4 1597MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 51.531 io_bytes/op: 1589.07 miss_ratio: 0.0201969 max_rss_mb: 1583.56 1597MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 301.174 io_bytes/op: 1439.52 miss_ratio: 0.0184218 max_rss_mb: 1656.59 1597MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 273.09 io_bytes/op: 1375.12 miss_ratio: 0.0180002 max_rss_mb: 1586.8 1597MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 904.497 io_bytes/op: 1411.29 miss_ratio: 0.0179934 max_rss_mb: 1775.89 1597MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1182.59 io_bytes/op: 1440.77 miss_ratio: 0.0185449 max_rss_mb: 1636.45 1597MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 309.91 io_bytes/op: 1438.25 miss_ratio: 0.018399 max_rss_mb: 1689.98 1597MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 267.605 io_bytes/op: 1394.16 miss_ratio: 0.0180286 max_rss_mb: 1631.91 1597MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 691.518 io_bytes/op: 9056.73 miss_ratio: 0.0186572 max_rss_mb: 1982.26 1597MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1406.12 io_bytes/op: 1440.82 miss_ratio: 0.0185463 max_rss_mb: 1685.63 610MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 45.511 io_bytes/op: 2279.61 miss_ratio: 0.0290528 max_rss_mb: 615.137 610MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 43.386 io_bytes/op: 2217.29 miss_ratio: 0.0289282 max_rss_mb: 600.996 610MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 46.207 io_bytes/op: 2275.51 miss_ratio: 0.0290057 max_rss_mb: 637.934 610MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 48.879 io_bytes/op: 2283.1 miss_ratio: 0.0291253 max_rss_mb: 613.5 610MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 306.59 io_bytes/op: 2250 miss_ratio: 0.0288721 max_rss_mb: 683.402 610MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 269.176 io_bytes/op: 2187.86 miss_ratio: 0.0286938 max_rss_mb: 628.742 610MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 855.097 io_bytes/op: 2279.26 miss_ratio: 0.0288009 max_rss_mb: 733.062 610MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1121.47 io_bytes/op: 2244.29 miss_ratio: 0.0289046 max_rss_mb: 666.453 610MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 305.079 io_bytes/op: 2252.43 miss_ratio: 0.0288884 max_rss_mb: 723.457 610MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 269.583 io_bytes/op: 2204.58 miss_ratio: 0.0287001 max_rss_mb: 676.426 610MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 53.298 io_bytes/op: 8128.98 miss_ratio: 0.0292452 max_rss_mb: 956.273 610MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1301.09 io_bytes/op: 2246.04 miss_ratio: 0.0289171 max_rss_mb: 788.812 The new version is still winning every time, sometimes dramatically so, and we can tell from the maximum resident memory numbers (which contain some noise, by the way) that the new cache is not cheating on memory usage.

This new clock cache only uses two shards for this configuration, and that helps to ensure that entries are part of a sufficiently big pool that their eviction order resembles the single-shard order.

Automatic table sizing for HyperClockCache (AutoHCC) (#11738) Summary: This change add an experimental next-generation HyperClockCache (HCC) with automatic sizing of the underlying hash table. Both the existing version (stable) and the new version (experimental for now) of HCC are available depending on whether an estimated average entry charge is provided in HyperClockCacheOptions. Internally, we call the two implementations AutoHyperClockCache (new) and FixedHyperClockCache (existing). The performance characteristics and much of the underlying logic are similar enough that AutoHCC is likely to make FixedHCC obsolete, and so it's best considered an evolution of the same technology or solution rather than an alternative. More specifically, both implementations share essentially the same logic for managing the state of individual entries in the cache, including metadata for reference counting and counting clocks for eviction. This metadata, which I like to call the "low-level HCC protocol," includes a read-write lock on entries, but relaxed consistency requirements on the cache (e.g. allowing rare duplication) means high-level cache operations never wait for these low-level per-entry locks. FixedHCC is fully wait-free. AutoHCC is different in how entries are indexed into an efficient hash table. AutoHCC is "essentially wait-free" as there is no pattern of typical high-level operations on a large cache that can lead to one thread waiting on another to complete some work, though it can happen in some unusual/unlucky cases, or atypical uses such as erasing specific cache keys. Table growth and entry reclamation is more complex in AutoHCC compared to FixedHCC, so uses some localized locking to manage that. AutoHCC uses linear hashing to grow the table as needed, with low latency and to a precise size. AutoHCC depends on anonymous mmap support from the OS (currently verified working on Linux, MacOS, and Windows) to allow the array underlying a hash table to grow in place without wasting resident memory on space reserved but unused. AutoHCC uses a form of chaining while FixedHCC uses open addressing and double hashing. More specifics: * In developing this PR, a rare availability bug (minor) was noticed in the existing HCC implementation of Release()+erase_if_last_ref, which is now inherited into AutoHCC. Fixing this without a performance regression will not be simple, so is left for follow-up work. * Some existing unit tests required adjustment of operational parameters or conditions to work with the new behaviors of AutoHCC. A number of bugs were found and fixed in the validation process, including getting unit tests in good working order. * Added an option to cache_bench, `-degenerate_hash_bits` for correctness stress testing described below. For this, the tool uses the reverse-engineered hash function for HCC to generate keys in which the specified number of hash bits, in critical positions, have a fixed value. Essentially each degenerate hash bit will half the number of chain heads utilized and double the average chain length. Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/11738 Test Plan: unit tests updated, and already added to db crash test. Also ## Correctness The code includes generous assertions to check for unexpected states, especially at destruction time, so should be able to detect critical concurrency bugs. Less serious "availability bugs" in which cache data is hidden or cleanly lost are more difficult to detect, but also less scary for data correctness (as long as performance is good and the design is sound). In average operation, the structure is extremely low stress and low contention (see next section) so stressing the corner case logic requires artificially stressing the operating conditions. First, we keep the structure small to increase the number of threads hitting the same chain or entry, and just one cache shard. Second, we artificially degrade the hashing so that chains are much longer than typical, using the new `-degenerate_hash_bits` option to cache_bench. Third, we re-create the structure from scratch frequently in order to exercise the Grow logic repeatedly and to get the benefit of the consistency checks in the structure's destructor in debug builds. For cache_bench this also means disabling the single-threaded "populate cache" step (normally used for steady state performance testing). And of course use many more threads than cores to have many preemptions. An effective test for working out bugs was this (using debug build of course): ``` while ./cache_bench -cache_type=auto_hyper_clock_cache -histograms=0 -cache_size=8000000 -threads=100 -populate_cache=0 -ops_per_thread=10000 -degenerate_hash_bits=6 -num_shard_bits=0; do :; done ``` Or even smaller cases. This setup has around 27 utilized chains, with around 35 entries each, and yield-waits more than 1 million times per second (very high contention; see next section). I have let this run for hours searching for any lingering issues. I've also run cache_bench under ASAN, UBSAN, and TSAN. ## Essentially wait free There is a counter for number of yield() calls when one thread is waiting on another. When we pre-populate the structure in a single thread, ``` ./cache_bench -cache_type=auto_hyper_clock_cache -histograms=0 -populate_cache=1 -ops_per_thread=200000 2>&1 | grep Yield ``` We see something on the order of 1 yield call per second across 16 threads, even when we load the system other other jobs (parallel compilation). With -populate_cache=0, there are more yield opportunities with parallel table growth. On an otherwise unloaded system, we still see very small (single digit) yield counts, with a chance of getting into the thousands, and getting into 10s of thousands per second during table growth phase if the system is loaded with other jobs. However, I am not worried about this if performance is still good (see next section). ## Overall performance Although cache_bench initially suggested performance very close to FixedHCC, there was a very noticeable performance hit under a db_bench setup like used in validating https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/10626. Much of the difference has been reduced by optimizing Lookup with a "naive" pass that will almost always find entries quickly, and only falling back to the careful Lookup algorithm when not found in the first pass. Setups (chosen to be sensitive to block cache performance), and compiled with USE_CLANG=1 JEMALLOC=1 PORTABLE=0 DEBUG_LEVEL=0: ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm base/db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` ### No regression on FixedHCC Running before & after builds at the same time on a 48 core machine. ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm /usr/bin/time ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom[-X10],block_cache_entry_stats,cache_report_problems -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=610000000 -duration 20 -threads=24 -cache_type=fixed_hyper_clock_cache -seed=1234 ``` Before: readrandom [AVG 10 runs] : 847234 (± 8150) ops/sec; 59.2 (± 0.6) MB/sec 703MB max RSS After: readrandom [AVG 10 runs] : 851021 (± 7929) ops/sec; 59.5 (± 0.6) MB/sec 706MB max RSS Probably no material difference. ### Single-threaded performance Using `[-X2]` and `-threads=1` and `-duration=30`, running all three at the same time: lru_cache: 55100 ops/sec, then 55862 ops/sec (627MB max RSS) fixed_hyper_clock_cache: 60496 ops/sec, then 61231 ops/sec (626MB max RSS) auto_hyper_clock_cache: 47560 ops/sec, then 56081 ops/sec (626MB max RSS) So AutoHCC has more ramp-up cost in the first pass as the cache grows to the appropriate size. (In single-threaded operation, the parallelizability and per-op low latency of table growth is overall slower.) However, once up to size, its performance is comparable to LRUCache. FixedHCC's lean operations still win overall when a good estimate is available. If we look at HCC table stats, we can see that this configuration is not favorable to AutoHCC (and I have verified that other memory sizes do not yield substantially different results, until shards are under-sized for the full filters): FixedHCC: Slot occupancy stats: Overall 47% (124991/262144), Min/Max/Window = 28%/64%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 17/22 AutoHCC: Slot occupancy stats: Overall 59% (125781/209682), Min/Max/Window = 43%/82%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 76/16 Head occupancy stats: Overall 43% (92259/209682), Min/Max/Window = 24%/74%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 19/26 Entries at home count: 53350 FixedHCC configuration is relatively good for speed, and not ideal for space utilization. As is typical, AutoHCC has tighter control on metadata usage (209682 x 64 bytes rather than 262144 x 64 bytes), and the higher load factor is slightly worse for speed. LRUCache also has more metadata usage, at 199680 x 96 bytes of tracked metadata (plus roughly another 10% of that untracked in the head pointers), and that metadata is subject to fragmentation. ### Parallel performance, high hit rate Now using `[-X10]` and `-threads=10`, all three at the same time lru_cache: [AVG 10 runs] : 263629 (± 1425) ops/sec; 18.4 (± 0.1) MB/sec 655MB max RSS, 97.1% cache hit rate fixed_hyper_clock_cache: [AVG 10 runs] : 479590 (± 8114) ops/sec; 33.5 (± 0.6) MB/sec 651MB max RSS, 97.1% cache hit rate auto_hyper_clock_cache: [AVG 10 runs] : 418687 (± 5915) ops/sec; 29.3 (± 0.4) MB/sec 657MB max RSS, 97.1% cache hit rate Even with just 10-way parallelism for each cache (though 30+/48 cores busy overall), LRUCache is already showing performance degradation, while AutoHCC is in the neighborhood of FixedHCC. And that brings us to the question of how AutoHCC holds up under extreme parallelism, so now independent runs with `-threads=100` (overloading 48 cores). lru_cache: 438613 ops/sec, 827MB max RSS fixed_hyper_clock_cache: 1651310 ops/sec, 812MB max RSS auto_hyper_clock_cache: 1505875 ops/sec, 821MB max RSS (Yield count: 1089 over 30s) Clearly, AutoHCC holds up extremely well under extreme parallelism, even closing some of the modest performance gap with FixedHCC. ### Parallel performance, low hit rate To get down to roughly 50% cache hit rate, we use `-cache_index_and_filter_blocks=0 -cache_size=1650000000` with `-threads=10`. Here the extra cost of running counting clock eviction, especially on the chains of AutoHCC, are evident, especially with the lower contention of cache_index_and_filter_blocks=0: lru_cache: 725231 ops/sec, 1770MB max RSS, 51.3% hit rate fixed_hyper_clock_cache: 638620 ops/sec, 1765MB max RSS, 50.2% hit rate auto_hyper_clock_cache: 541018 ops/sec, 1777MB max RSS, 50.8% hit rate Reviewed By: jowlyzhang Differential Revision: D48784755 Pulled By: pdillinger fbshipit-source-id: e79813dc087474ac427637dd282a14fa3011a6e4

Revamp, optimize new experimental clock cache (#10626) Summary: * Consolidates most metadata into a single word per slot so that more can be accomplished with a single atomic update. In the common case, Lookup was previously about 4 atomic updates, now just 1 atomic update. Common case Release was previously 1 atomic read + 1 atomic update, now just 1 atomic update. * Eliminate spins / waits / yields, which likely threaten some "lock free" benefits. Compare-exchange loops are only used in explicit Erase, and strict_capacity_limit=true Insert. Eviction uses opportunistic compare- exchange. * Relaxes some aggressiveness and guarantees. For example, * Duplicate Inserts will sometimes go undetected and the shadow duplicate will age out with eviction. * In many cases, the older Inserted value for a given cache key will be kept (i.e. Insert does not support overwrite). * Entries explicitly erased (rather than evicted) might not be freed immediately in some rare cases. * With strict_capacity_limit=false, capacity limit is not tracked/enforced as precisely as LRUCache, but is self-correcting and should only deviate by a very small number of extra or fewer entries. * Use smaller "computed default" number of cache shards in many cases, because benefits to larger usage tracking / eviction pools outweigh the small cost of more lock-free atomic contention. The improvement in CPU and I/O is dramatic in some limit-memory cases. * Even without the sharding change, the eviction algorithm is likely more effective than LRU overall because it's more stateful, even though the "hot path" state tracking for it is essentially free with ref counting. It is like a generalized CLOCK with aging (see code comments). I don't have performance numbers showing a specific improvement, but in theory, for a Poisson access pattern to each block, keeping some state allows better estimation of time to next access (Poisson interval) than strict LRU. The bounded randomness in CLOCK can also reduce "cliff" effect for repeated range scans approaching and exceeding cache size. ## Hot path algorithm comparison Rough descriptions, focusing on number and kind of atomic operations: * Old `Lookup()` (2-5 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment internal ref count at slot If possible hit: Check flags atomic (and non-atomic fields) If cache hit: Three distinct updates to 'flags' atomic Increment refs for internal-to-external Return Decrement internal ref count while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * New `Lookup()` (1-2 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment acquire counter in meta word (optimistic) If visible entry (already read meta word): If match (read non-atomic fields): Return Else: Decrement acquire counter in meta word Else if invisible entry (rare, already read meta word): Decrement acquire counter in meta word while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * Old `Release()` (1 atomic update, conditional on atomic read, rarely more): ``` Read atomic ref count If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return Else: Decrement ref count ``` * New `Release()` (1 unconditional atomic update, rarely more): ``` Increment release counter in meta word If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return ``` ## Performance test setup Build DB with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` Test with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=${CACHE_MB}000000 -duration 60 -threads=$THREADS -statistics ``` Numbers on a single socket Skylake Xeon system with 48 hardware threads, DEBUG_LEVEL=0 PORTABLE=0. Very similar story on a dual socket system with 80 hardware threads. Using (every 2nd) Fibonacci MB cache sizes to sample the territory between powers of two. Configurations: base: LRUCache before this change, but with db_bench change to default cache_numshardbits=-1 (instead of fixed at 6) folly: LRUCache before this change, with folly enabled (distributed mutex) but on an old compiler (sorry) gt_clock: experimental ClockCache before this change new_clock: experimental ClockCache with this change ## Performance test results First test "hot path" read performance, with block cache large enough for whole DB: 4181MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 47.761 4181MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 45.877 4181MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 51.092 4181MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 53.944 4181MB 16thread base -> kops/s: 284.567 4181MB 16thread folly -> kops/s: 249.015 4181MB 16thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 743.762 4181MB 16thread new_clock -> kops/s: 861.821 4181MB 24thread base -> kops/s: 303.415 4181MB 24thread folly -> kops/s: 266.548 4181MB 24thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 975.706 4181MB 24thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1205.64 (~= 24 * 53.944) 4181MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 311.251 4181MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 274.952 4181MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 1045.98 4181MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1370.38 4181MB 48thread base -> kops/s: 310.504 4181MB 48thread folly -> kops/s: 268.322 4181MB 48thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 1195.65 4181MB 48thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1604.85 (~= 24 * 1.25 * 53.944) 4181MB 64thread base -> kops/s: 307.839 4181MB 64thread folly -> kops/s: 272.172 4181MB 64thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 1204.47 4181MB 64thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1615.37 4181MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 310.934 4181MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 267.468 4181MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 1188.75 4181MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1595.46 Whether we have just one thread on a quiet system or an overload of threads, the new version wins every time in thousand-ops per second, sometimes dramatically so. Mutex-based implementation quickly becomes contention-limited. New clock cache shows essentially perfect scaling up to number of physical cores (24), and then each hyperthreaded core adding about 1/4 the throughput of an additional physical core (see 48 thread case). Block cache miss rates (omitted above) are negligible across the board. With partitioned instead of full filters, the maximum speed-up vs. base is more like 2.5x rather than 5x. Now test a large block cache with low miss ratio, but some eviction is required: 1597MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 46.603 io_bytes/op: 1584.63 miss_ratio: 0.0201066 max_rss_mb: 1589.23 1597MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 45.079 io_bytes/op: 1530.03 miss_ratio: 0.019872 max_rss_mb: 1550.43 1597MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 48.711 io_bytes/op: 1566.63 miss_ratio: 0.0198923 max_rss_mb: 1691.4 1597MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 51.531 io_bytes/op: 1589.07 miss_ratio: 0.0201969 max_rss_mb: 1583.56 1597MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 301.174 io_bytes/op: 1439.52 miss_ratio: 0.0184218 max_rss_mb: 1656.59 1597MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 273.09 io_bytes/op: 1375.12 miss_ratio: 0.0180002 max_rss_mb: 1586.8 1597MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 904.497 io_bytes/op: 1411.29 miss_ratio: 0.0179934 max_rss_mb: 1775.89 1597MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1182.59 io_bytes/op: 1440.77 miss_ratio: 0.0185449 max_rss_mb: 1636.45 1597MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 309.91 io_bytes/op: 1438.25 miss_ratio: 0.018399 max_rss_mb: 1689.98 1597MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 267.605 io_bytes/op: 1394.16 miss_ratio: 0.0180286 max_rss_mb: 1631.91 1597MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 691.518 io_bytes/op: 9056.73 miss_ratio: 0.0186572 max_rss_mb: 1982.26 1597MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1406.12 io_bytes/op: 1440.82 miss_ratio: 0.0185463 max_rss_mb: 1685.63 610MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 45.511 io_bytes/op: 2279.61 miss_ratio: 0.0290528 max_rss_mb: 615.137 610MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 43.386 io_bytes/op: 2217.29 miss_ratio: 0.0289282 max_rss_mb: 600.996 610MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 46.207 io_bytes/op: 2275.51 miss_ratio: 0.0290057 max_rss_mb: 637.934 610MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 48.879 io_bytes/op: 2283.1 miss_ratio: 0.0291253 max_rss_mb: 613.5 610MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 306.59 io_bytes/op: 2250 miss_ratio: 0.0288721 max_rss_mb: 683.402 610MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 269.176 io_bytes/op: 2187.86 miss_ratio: 0.0286938 max_rss_mb: 628.742 610MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 855.097 io_bytes/op: 2279.26 miss_ratio: 0.0288009 max_rss_mb: 733.062 610MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1121.47 io_bytes/op: 2244.29 miss_ratio: 0.0289046 max_rss_mb: 666.453 610MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 305.079 io_bytes/op: 2252.43 miss_ratio: 0.0288884 max_rss_mb: 723.457 610MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 269.583 io_bytes/op: 2204.58 miss_ratio: 0.0287001 max_rss_mb: 676.426 610MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 53.298 io_bytes/op: 8128.98 miss_ratio: 0.0292452 max_rss_mb: 956.273 610MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1301.09 io_bytes/op: 2246.04 miss_ratio: 0.0289171 max_rss_mb: 788.812 The new version is still winning every time, sometimes dramatically so, and we can tell from the maximum resident memory numbers (which contain some noise, by the way) that the new cache is not cheating on memory usage. IMPORTANT: The previous generation experimental clock cache appears to hit a serious bottleneck in the higher thread count configurations, presumably due to some of its waiting functionality. (The same bottleneck is not seen with partitioned index+filters.)

This new clock cache only uses two shards for this configuration, and that helps to ensure that entries are part of a sufficiently big pool that their eviction order resembles the single-shard order.

Automatic table sizing for HyperClockCache (AutoHCC) (#11738) Summary: This change add an experimental next-generation HyperClockCache (HCC) with automatic sizing of the underlying hash table. Both the existing version (stable) and the new version (experimental for now) of HCC are available depending on whether an estimated average entry charge is provided in HyperClockCacheOptions. Internally, we call the two implementations AutoHyperClockCache (new) and FixedHyperClockCache (existing). The performance characteristics and much of the underlying logic are similar enough that AutoHCC is likely to make FixedHCC obsolete, and so it's best considered an evolution of the same technology or solution rather than an alternative. More specifically, both implementations share essentially the same logic for managing the state of individual entries in the cache, including metadata for reference counting and counting clocks for eviction. This metadata, which I like to call the "low-level HCC protocol," includes a read-write lock on entries, but relaxed consistency requirements on the cache (e.g. allowing rare duplication) means high-level cache operations never wait for these low-level per-entry locks. FixedHCC is fully wait-free. AutoHCC is different in how entries are indexed into an efficient hash table. AutoHCC is "essentially wait-free" as there is no pattern of typical high-level operations on a large cache that can lead to one thread waiting on another to complete some work, though it can happen in some unusual/unlucky cases, or atypical uses such as erasing specific cache keys. Table growth and entry reclamation is more complex in AutoHCC compared to FixedHCC, so uses some localized locking to manage that. AutoHCC uses linear hashing to grow the table as needed, with low latency and to a precise size. AutoHCC depends on anonymous mmap support from the OS (currently verified working on Linux, MacOS, and Windows) to allow the array underlying a hash table to grow in place without wasting resident memory on space reserved but unused. AutoHCC uses a form of chaining while FixedHCC uses open addressing and double hashing. More specifics: * In developing this PR, a rare availability bug (minor) was noticed in the existing HCC implementation of Release()+erase_if_last_ref, which is now inherited into AutoHCC. Fixing this without a performance regression will not be simple, so is left for follow-up work. * Some existing unit tests required adjustment of operational parameters or conditions to work with the new behaviors of AutoHCC. A number of bugs were found and fixed in the validation process, including getting unit tests in good working order. * Added an option to cache_bench, `-degenerate_hash_bits` for correctness stress testing described below. For this, the tool uses the reverse-engineered hash function for HCC to generate keys in which the specified number of hash bits, in critical positions, have a fixed value. Essentially each degenerate hash bit will half the number of chain heads utilized and double the average chain length. Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/11738 Test Plan: unit tests updated, and already added to db crash test. Also ## Correctness The code includes generous assertions to check for unexpected states, especially at destruction time, so should be able to detect critical concurrency bugs. Less serious "availability bugs" in which cache data is hidden or cleanly lost are more difficult to detect, but also less scary for data correctness (as long as performance is good and the design is sound). In average operation, the structure is extremely low stress and low contention (see next section) so stressing the corner case logic requires artificially stressing the operating conditions. First, we keep the structure small to increase the number of threads hitting the same chain or entry, and just one cache shard. Second, we artificially degrade the hashing so that chains are much longer than typical, using the new `-degenerate_hash_bits` option to cache_bench. Third, we re-create the structure from scratch frequently in order to exercise the Grow logic repeatedly and to get the benefit of the consistency checks in the structure's destructor in debug builds. For cache_bench this also means disabling the single-threaded "populate cache" step (normally used for steady state performance testing). And of course use many more threads than cores to have many preemptions. An effective test for working out bugs was this (using debug build of course): ``` while ./cache_bench -cache_type=auto_hyper_clock_cache -histograms=0 -cache_size=8000000 -threads=100 -populate_cache=0 -ops_per_thread=10000 -degenerate_hash_bits=6 -num_shard_bits=0; do :; done ``` Or even smaller cases. This setup has around 27 utilized chains, with around 35 entries each, and yield-waits more than 1 million times per second (very high contention; see next section). I have let this run for hours searching for any lingering issues. I've also run cache_bench under ASAN, UBSAN, and TSAN. ## Essentially wait free There is a counter for number of yield() calls when one thread is waiting on another. When we pre-populate the structure in a single thread, ``` ./cache_bench -cache_type=auto_hyper_clock_cache -histograms=0 -populate_cache=1 -ops_per_thread=200000 2>&1 | grep Yield ``` We see something on the order of 1 yield call per second across 16 threads, even when we load the system other other jobs (parallel compilation). With -populate_cache=0, there are more yield opportunities with parallel table growth. On an otherwise unloaded system, we still see very small (single digit) yield counts, with a chance of getting into the thousands, and getting into 10s of thousands per second during table growth phase if the system is loaded with other jobs. However, I am not worried about this if performance is still good (see next section). ## Overall performance Although cache_bench initially suggested performance very close to FixedHCC, there was a very noticeable performance hit under a db_bench setup like used in validating https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/10626. Much of the difference has been reduced by optimizing Lookup with a "naive" pass that will almost always find entries quickly, and only falling back to the careful Lookup algorithm when not found in the first pass. Setups (chosen to be sensitive to block cache performance), and compiled with USE_CLANG=1 JEMALLOC=1 PORTABLE=0 DEBUG_LEVEL=0: ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm base/db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` ### No regression on FixedHCC Running before & after builds at the same time on a 48 core machine. ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm /usr/bin/time ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom[-X10],block_cache_entry_stats,cache_report_problems -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=610000000 -duration 20 -threads=24 -cache_type=fixed_hyper_clock_cache -seed=1234 ``` Before: readrandom [AVG 10 runs] : 847234 (± 8150) ops/sec; 59.2 (± 0.6) MB/sec 703MB max RSS After: readrandom [AVG 10 runs] : 851021 (± 7929) ops/sec; 59.5 (± 0.6) MB/sec 706MB max RSS Probably no material difference. ### Single-threaded performance Using `[-X2]` and `-threads=1` and `-duration=30`, running all three at the same time: lru_cache: 55100 ops/sec, then 55862 ops/sec (627MB max RSS) fixed_hyper_clock_cache: 60496 ops/sec, then 61231 ops/sec (626MB max RSS) auto_hyper_clock_cache: 47560 ops/sec, then 56081 ops/sec (626MB max RSS) So AutoHCC has more ramp-up cost in the first pass as the cache grows to the appropriate size. (In single-threaded operation, the parallelizability and per-op low latency of table growth is overall slower.) However, once up to size, its performance is comparable to LRUCache. FixedHCC's lean operations still win overall when a good estimate is available. If we look at HCC table stats, we can see that this configuration is not favorable to AutoHCC (and I have verified that other memory sizes do not yield substantially different results, until shards are under-sized for the full filters): FixedHCC: Slot occupancy stats: Overall 47% (124991/262144), Min/Max/Window = 28%/64%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 17/22 AutoHCC: Slot occupancy stats: Overall 59% (125781/209682), Min/Max/Window = 43%/82%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 76/16 Head occupancy stats: Overall 43% (92259/209682), Min/Max/Window = 24%/74%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 19/26 Entries at home count: 53350 FixedHCC configuration is relatively good for speed, and not ideal for space utilization. As is typical, AutoHCC has tighter control on metadata usage (209682 x 64 bytes rather than 262144 x 64 bytes), and the higher load factor is slightly worse for speed. LRUCache also has more metadata usage, at 199680 x 96 bytes of tracked metadata (plus roughly another 10% of that untracked in the head pointers), and that metadata is subject to fragmentation. ### Parallel performance, high hit rate Now using `[-X10]` and `-threads=10`, all three at the same time lru_cache: [AVG 10 runs] : 263629 (± 1425) ops/sec; 18.4 (± 0.1) MB/sec 655MB max RSS, 97.1% cache hit rate fixed_hyper_clock_cache: [AVG 10 runs] : 479590 (± 8114) ops/sec; 33.5 (± 0.6) MB/sec 651MB max RSS, 97.1% cache hit rate auto_hyper_clock_cache: [AVG 10 runs] : 418687 (± 5915) ops/sec; 29.3 (± 0.4) MB/sec 657MB max RSS, 97.1% cache hit rate Even with just 10-way parallelism for each cache (though 30+/48 cores busy overall), LRUCache is already showing performance degradation, while AutoHCC is in the neighborhood of FixedHCC. And that brings us to the question of how AutoHCC holds up under extreme parallelism, so now independent runs with `-threads=100` (overloading 48 cores). lru_cache: 438613 ops/sec, 827MB max RSS fixed_hyper_clock_cache: 1651310 ops/sec, 812MB max RSS auto_hyper_clock_cache: 1505875 ops/sec, 821MB max RSS (Yield count: 1089 over 30s) Clearly, AutoHCC holds up extremely well under extreme parallelism, even closing some of the modest performance gap with FixedHCC. ### Parallel performance, low hit rate To get down to roughly 50% cache hit rate, we use `-cache_index_and_filter_blocks=0 -cache_size=1650000000` with `-threads=10`. Here the extra cost of running counting clock eviction, especially on the chains of AutoHCC, are evident, especially with the lower contention of cache_index_and_filter_blocks=0: lru_cache: 725231 ops/sec, 1770MB max RSS, 51.3% hit rate fixed_hyper_clock_cache: 638620 ops/sec, 1765MB max RSS, 50.2% hit rate auto_hyper_clock_cache: 541018 ops/sec, 1777MB max RSS, 50.8% hit rate Reviewed By: jowlyzhang Differential Revision: D48784755 Pulled By: pdillinger fbshipit-source-id: e79813dc087474ac427637dd282a14fa3011a6e4

// block cache (but not row cache or table cache).
Revamp, optimize new experimental clock cache (#10626) Summary: * Consolidates most metadata into a single word per slot so that more can be accomplished with a single atomic update. In the common case, Lookup was previously about 4 atomic updates, now just 1 atomic update. Common case Release was previously 1 atomic read + 1 atomic update, now just 1 atomic update. * Eliminate spins / waits / yields, which likely threaten some "lock free" benefits. Compare-exchange loops are only used in explicit Erase, and strict_capacity_limit=true Insert. Eviction uses opportunistic compare- exchange. * Relaxes some aggressiveness and guarantees. For example, * Duplicate Inserts will sometimes go undetected and the shadow duplicate will age out with eviction. * In many cases, the older Inserted value for a given cache key will be kept (i.e. Insert does not support overwrite). * Entries explicitly erased (rather than evicted) might not be freed immediately in some rare cases. * With strict_capacity_limit=false, capacity limit is not tracked/enforced as precisely as LRUCache, but is self-correcting and should only deviate by a very small number of extra or fewer entries. * Use smaller "computed default" number of cache shards in many cases, because benefits to larger usage tracking / eviction pools outweigh the small cost of more lock-free atomic contention. The improvement in CPU and I/O is dramatic in some limit-memory cases. * Even without the sharding change, the eviction algorithm is likely more effective than LRU overall because it's more stateful, even though the "hot path" state tracking for it is essentially free with ref counting. It is like a generalized CLOCK with aging (see code comments). I don't have performance numbers showing a specific improvement, but in theory, for a Poisson access pattern to each block, keeping some state allows better estimation of time to next access (Poisson interval) than strict LRU. The bounded randomness in CLOCK can also reduce "cliff" effect for repeated range scans approaching and exceeding cache size. ## Hot path algorithm comparison Rough descriptions, focusing on number and kind of atomic operations: * Old `Lookup()` (2-5 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment internal ref count at slot If possible hit: Check flags atomic (and non-atomic fields) If cache hit: Three distinct updates to 'flags' atomic Increment refs for internal-to-external Return Decrement internal ref count while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * New `Lookup()` (1-2 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment acquire counter in meta word (optimistic) If visible entry (already read meta word): If match (read non-atomic fields): Return Else: Decrement acquire counter in meta word Else if invisible entry (rare, already read meta word): Decrement acquire counter in meta word while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * Old `Release()` (1 atomic update, conditional on atomic read, rarely more): ``` Read atomic ref count If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return Else: Decrement ref count ``` * New `Release()` (1 unconditional atomic update, rarely more): ``` Increment release counter in meta word If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return ``` ## Performance test setup Build DB with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` Test with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=${CACHE_MB}000000 -duration 60 -threads=$THREADS -statistics ``` Numbers on a single socket Skylake Xeon system with 48 hardware threads, DEBUG_LEVEL=0 PORTABLE=0.

Mutex-based implementation quickly becomes contention-limited. New clock cache shows essentially perfect scaling up to number of physical cores (24), and then each hyperthreaded core adding about 1/4 the throughput of an additional physical core (see 48 thread case). Block cache miss rates (omitted above) are negligible across the board. With partitioned instead of full filters, the maximum speed-up vs. base is more like 2.5x rather than 5x. Now test a large block cache with low miss ratio, but some eviction is required: 1597MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 46.603 io_bytes/op: 1584.63 miss_ratio: 0.0201066 max_rss_mb: 1589.23 1597MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 45.079 io_bytes/op: 1530.03 miss_ratio: 0.019872 max_rss_mb: 1550.43 1597MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 48.711 io_bytes/op: 1566.63 miss_ratio: 0.0198923 max_rss_mb: 1691.4 1597MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 51.531 io_bytes/op: 1589.07 miss_ratio: 0.0201969 max_rss_mb: 1583.56 1597MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 301.174 io_bytes/op: 1439.52 miss_ratio: 0.0184218 max_rss_mb: 1656.59 1597MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 273.09 io_bytes/op: 1375.12 miss_ratio: 0.0180002 max_rss_mb: 1586.8 1597MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 904.497 io_bytes/op: 1411.29 miss_ratio: 0.0179934 max_rss_mb: 1775.89 1597MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1182.59 io_bytes/op: 1440.77 miss_ratio: 0.0185449 max_rss_mb: 1636.45 1597MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 309.91 io_bytes/op: 1438.25 miss_ratio: 0.018399 max_rss_mb: 1689.98 1597MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 267.605 io_bytes/op: 1394.16 miss_ratio: 0.0180286 max_rss_mb: 1631.91 1597MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 691.518 io_bytes/op: 9056.73 miss_ratio: 0.0186572 max_rss_mb: 1982.26 1597MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1406.12 io_bytes/op: 1440.82 miss_ratio: 0.0185463 max_rss_mb: 1685.63 610MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 45.511 io_bytes/op: 2279.61 miss_ratio: 0.0290528 max_rss_mb: 615.137 610MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 43.386 io_bytes/op: 2217.29 miss_ratio: 0.0289282 max_rss_mb: 600.996 610MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 46.207 io_bytes/op: 2275.51 miss_ratio: 0.0290057 max_rss_mb: 637.934 610MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 48.879 io_bytes/op: 2283.1 miss_ratio: 0.0291253 max_rss_mb: 613.5 610MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 306.59 io_bytes/op: 2250 miss_ratio: 0.0288721 max_rss_mb: 683.402 610MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 269.176 io_bytes/op: 2187.86 miss_ratio: 0.0286938 max_rss_mb: 628.742 610MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 855.097 io_bytes/op: 2279.26 miss_ratio: 0.0288009 max_rss_mb: 733.062 610MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1121.47 io_bytes/op: 2244.29 miss_ratio: 0.0289046 max_rss_mb: 666.453 610MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 305.079 io_bytes/op: 2252.43 miss_ratio: 0.0288884 max_rss_mb: 723.457 610MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 269.583 io_bytes/op: 2204.58 miss_ratio: 0.0287001 max_rss_mb: 676.426 610MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 53.298 io_bytes/op: 8128.98 miss_ratio: 0.0292452 max_rss_mb: 956.273 610MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1301.09 io_bytes/op: 2246.04 miss_ratio: 0.0289171 max_rss_mb: 788.812 The new version is still winning every time, sometimes dramatically so, and we can tell from the maximum resident memory numbers (which contain some noise, by the way) that the new cache is not cheating on memory usage.

This new clock cache only uses two shards for this configuration, and that helps to ensure that entries are part of a sufficiently big pool that their eviction order resembles the single-shard order.

// * Cache priorities are less aggressively enforced. Unlike LRUCache, enough
// transient LOW or BOTTOM priority items can evict HIGH priority entries that
// are not referenced recently (or often) enough.
// * If pinned entries leave little or nothing eligible for eviction,
// performance can degrade substantially, because of clock eviction eating
// CPU looking for evictable entries and because Release does not
// pro-actively delete unreferenced entries when the cache is over-full.
// Specifically, this makes this implementation more susceptible to the
// following combination:
// * num_shard_bits is high (e.g. 6)
// * capacity small (e.g. some MBs)
// * some large individual entries (e.g. non-partitioned filters)
// where individual entries occupy a large portion of their shard capacity.
// This should be mostly mitigated by the implementation picking a lower
// number of cache shards than LRUCache for a given capacity (when
// num_shard_bits is not overridden; see calls to GetDefaultCacheShardBits()).
// * With strict_capacity_limit=false, respecting the capacity limit is not as
// aggressive as LRUCache. The limit might be transiently exceeded by a very
// small number of entries even when not strictly necessary, and slower to
// recover after pinning forces limit to be substantially exceeded. (Even with
// strict_capacity_limit=true, RocksDB will nevertheless transiently allocate
// memory before discovering it is over the block cache capacity, so this
// should not be a detectable regression in respecting memory limits, except
// on exceptionally small caches.)
// * In some cases, erased or duplicated entries might not be freed
// immediately. They will eventually be freed by eviction from further Inserts.
// * Internal metadata can overflow if the number of simultaneous references
// to a cache handle reaches many millions.
//
// High-level eviction algorithm
// -----------------------------
// A score (or "countdown") is maintained for each entry, initially determined
// by priority. The score is incremented on each Lookup, up to a max of 3,
// though is easily returned to previous state if useful=false with Release.
// During CLOCK-style eviction iteration, entries with score > 0 are
// decremented if currently unreferenced and entries with score == 0 are
// evicted if currently unreferenced. Note that scoring might not be perfect
// because entries can be referenced transiently within the cache even when
// there are no outside references to the entry.
//
// Cache sharding like LRUCache is used to reduce contention on usage+eviction
// state, though here the performance improvement from more shards is small,
// and (as noted above) potentially detrimental if shard capacity is too close
// to largest entry size. Here cache sharding mostly only affects cache update
// (Insert / Erase) performance, not read performance.
//
// Read efficiency (hot path)
// --------------------------
// Mostly to minimize the cost of accessing metadata blocks with
// cache_index_and_filter_blocks=true, we focus on optimizing Lookup and
// Release. In terms of concurrency, at a minimum, these operations have
// to do reference counting (and Lookup has to compare full keys in a safe
// way). Can we fold in all the other metadata tracking *for free* with
// Lookup and Release doing a simple atomic fetch_add/fetch_sub? (Assume
// for the moment that Lookup succeeds on the first probe.)
//
// We have a clever way of encoding an entry's reference count and countdown
// clock so that Lookup and Release are each usually a single atomic addition.
// In a single metadata word we have both an "acquire" count, incremented by
// Lookup, and a "release" count, incremented by Release. If useful=false,
// Release can instead decrement the acquire count. Thus the current ref
// count is (acquires - releases), and the countdown clock is min(3, acquires).
// Note that only unreferenced entries (acquires == releases) are eligible
// for CLOCK manipulation and eviction. We tolerate use of more expensive
// compare_exchange operations for cache writes (insertions and erasures).
//
// In a cache receiving many reads and little or no writes, it is possible
// for the acquire and release counters to overflow. Assuming the *current*
// refcount never reaches to many millions, we only have to correct for
// overflow in both counters in Release, not in Lookup. The overflow check
// should be only 1-2 CPU cycles per Release because it is a predictable
// branch on a simple condition on data already in registers.
//
// Slot states
// -----------
// We encode a state indicator into the same metadata word with the
// acquire and release counters. This allows bigger state transitions to
// be atomic. States:

Revamp, optimize new experimental clock cache (#10626) Summary: * Consolidates most metadata into a single word per slot so that more can be accomplished with a single atomic update. In the common case, Lookup was previously about 4 atomic updates, now just 1 atomic update. Common case Release was previously 1 atomic read + 1 atomic update, now just 1 atomic update. * Eliminate spins / waits / yields, which likely threaten some "lock free" benefits. Compare-exchange loops are only used in explicit Erase, and strict_capacity_limit=true Insert. Eviction uses opportunistic compare- exchange. * Relaxes some aggressiveness and guarantees. For example, * Duplicate Inserts will sometimes go undetected and the shadow duplicate will age out with eviction. * In many cases, the older Inserted value for a given cache key will be kept (i.e. Insert does not support overwrite). * Entries explicitly erased (rather than evicted) might not be freed immediately in some rare cases. * With strict_capacity_limit=false, capacity limit is not tracked/enforced as precisely as LRUCache, but is self-correcting and should only deviate by a very small number of extra or fewer entries. * Use smaller "computed default" number of cache shards in many cases, because benefits to larger usage tracking / eviction pools outweigh the small cost of more lock-free atomic contention. The improvement in CPU and I/O is dramatic in some limit-memory cases. * Even without the sharding change, the eviction algorithm is likely more effective than LRU overall because it's more stateful, even though the "hot path" state tracking for it is essentially free with ref counting. It is like a generalized CLOCK with aging (see code comments). I don't have performance numbers showing a specific improvement, but in theory, for a Poisson access pattern to each block, keeping some state allows better estimation of time to next access (Poisson interval) than strict LRU. The bounded randomness in CLOCK can also reduce "cliff" effect for repeated range scans approaching and exceeding cache size. ## Hot path algorithm comparison Rough descriptions, focusing on number and kind of atomic operations: * Old `Lookup()` (2-5 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment internal ref count at slot If possible hit: Check flags atomic (and non-atomic fields) If cache hit: Three distinct updates to 'flags' atomic Increment refs for internal-to-external Return Decrement internal ref count while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * New `Lookup()` (1-2 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment acquire counter in meta word (optimistic) If visible entry (already read meta word): If match (read non-atomic fields): Return Else: Decrement acquire counter in meta word Else if invisible entry (rare, already read meta word): Decrement acquire counter in meta word while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * Old `Release()` (1 atomic update, conditional on atomic read, rarely more): ``` Read atomic ref count If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return Else: Decrement ref count ``` * New `Release()` (1 unconditional atomic update, rarely more): ``` Increment release counter in meta word If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return ``` ## Performance test setup Build DB with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` Test with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=${CACHE_MB}000000 -duration 60 -threads=$THREADS -statistics ``` Numbers on a single socket Skylake Xeon system with 48 hardware threads, DEBUG_LEVEL=0 PORTABLE=0.

Mutex-based implementation quickly becomes contention-limited. New clock cache shows essentially perfect scaling up to number of physical cores (24), and then each hyperthreaded core adding about 1/4 the throughput of an additional physical core (see 48 thread case). Block cache miss rates (omitted above) are negligible across the board. With partitioned instead of full filters, the maximum speed-up vs. base is more like 2.5x rather than 5x.

This new clock cache only uses two shards for this configuration, and that helps to ensure that entries are part of a sufficiently big pool that their eviction order resembles the single-shard order.

Automatic table sizing for HyperClockCache (AutoHCC) (#11738) Summary: This change add an experimental next-generation HyperClockCache (HCC) with automatic sizing of the underlying hash table. Both the existing version (stable) and the new version (experimental for now) of HCC are available depending on whether an estimated average entry charge is provided in HyperClockCacheOptions. Internally, we call the two implementations AutoHyperClockCache (new) and FixedHyperClockCache (existing). The performance characteristics and much of the underlying logic are similar enough that AutoHCC is likely to make FixedHCC obsolete, and so it's best considered an evolution of the same technology or solution rather than an alternative. More specifically, both implementations share essentially the same logic for managing the state of individual entries in the cache, including metadata for reference counting and counting clocks for eviction. This metadata, which I like to call the "low-level HCC protocol," includes a read-write lock on entries, but relaxed consistency requirements on the cache (e.g. allowing rare duplication) means high-level cache operations never wait for these low-level per-entry locks. FixedHCC is fully wait-free. AutoHCC is different in how entries are indexed into an efficient hash table. AutoHCC is "essentially wait-free" as there is no pattern of typical high-level operations on a large cache that can lead to one thread waiting on another to complete some work, though it can happen in some unusual/unlucky cases, or atypical uses such as erasing specific cache keys. Table growth and entry reclamation is more complex in AutoHCC compared to FixedHCC, so uses some localized locking to manage that. AutoHCC uses linear hashing to grow the table as needed, with low latency and to a precise size. AutoHCC depends on anonymous mmap support from the OS (currently verified working on Linux, MacOS, and Windows) to allow the array underlying a hash table to grow in place without wasting resident memory on space reserved but unused. AutoHCC uses a form of chaining while FixedHCC uses open addressing and double hashing. More specifics: * In developing this PR, a rare availability bug (minor) was noticed in the existing HCC implementation of Release()+erase_if_last_ref, which is now inherited into AutoHCC. Fixing this without a performance regression will not be simple, so is left for follow-up work. * Some existing unit tests required adjustment of operational parameters or conditions to work with the new behaviors of AutoHCC. A number of bugs were found and fixed in the validation process, including getting unit tests in good working order. * Added an option to cache_bench, `-degenerate_hash_bits` for correctness stress testing described below. For this, the tool uses the reverse-engineered hash function for HCC to generate keys in which the specified number of hash bits, in critical positions, have a fixed value. Essentially each degenerate hash bit will half the number of chain heads utilized and double the average chain length. Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/11738 Test Plan: unit tests updated, and already added to db crash test. Also ## Correctness The code includes generous assertions to check for unexpected states, especially at destruction time, so should be able to detect critical concurrency bugs. Less serious "availability bugs" in which cache data is hidden or cleanly lost are more difficult to detect, but also less scary for data correctness (as long as performance is good and the design is sound). In average operation, the structure is extremely low stress and low contention (see next section) so stressing the corner case logic requires artificially stressing the operating conditions. First, we keep the structure small to increase the number of threads hitting the same chain or entry, and just one cache shard. Second, we artificially degrade the hashing so that chains are much longer than typical, using the new `-degenerate_hash_bits` option to cache_bench. Third, we re-create the structure from scratch frequently in order to exercise the Grow logic repeatedly and to get the benefit of the consistency checks in the structure's destructor in debug builds. For cache_bench this also means disabling the single-threaded "populate cache" step (normally used for steady state performance testing). And of course use many more threads than cores to have many preemptions. An effective test for working out bugs was this (using debug build of course): ``` while ./cache_bench -cache_type=auto_hyper_clock_cache -histograms=0 -cache_size=8000000 -threads=100 -populate_cache=0 -ops_per_thread=10000 -degenerate_hash_bits=6 -num_shard_bits=0; do :; done ``` Or even smaller cases. This setup has around 27 utilized chains, with around 35 entries each, and yield-waits more than 1 million times per second (very high contention; see next section). I have let this run for hours searching for any lingering issues. I've also run cache_bench under ASAN, UBSAN, and TSAN. ## Essentially wait free There is a counter for number of yield() calls when one thread is waiting on another. When we pre-populate the structure in a single thread, ``` ./cache_bench -cache_type=auto_hyper_clock_cache -histograms=0 -populate_cache=1 -ops_per_thread=200000 2>&1 | grep Yield ``` We see something on the order of 1 yield call per second across 16 threads, even when we load the system other other jobs (parallel compilation). With -populate_cache=0, there are more yield opportunities with parallel table growth. On an otherwise unloaded system, we still see very small (single digit) yield counts, with a chance of getting into the thousands, and getting into 10s of thousands per second during table growth phase if the system is loaded with other jobs. However, I am not worried about this if performance is still good (see next section). ## Overall performance Although cache_bench initially suggested performance very close to FixedHCC, there was a very noticeable performance hit under a db_bench setup like used in validating https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/10626. Much of the difference has been reduced by optimizing Lookup with a "naive" pass that will almost always find entries quickly, and only falling back to the careful Lookup algorithm when not found in the first pass. Setups (chosen to be sensitive to block cache performance), and compiled with USE_CLANG=1 JEMALLOC=1 PORTABLE=0 DEBUG_LEVEL=0: ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm base/db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` ### No regression on FixedHCC Running before & after builds at the same time on a 48 core machine. ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm /usr/bin/time ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom[-X10],block_cache_entry_stats,cache_report_problems -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=610000000 -duration 20 -threads=24 -cache_type=fixed_hyper_clock_cache -seed=1234 ``` Before: readrandom [AVG 10 runs] : 847234 (± 8150) ops/sec; 59.2 (± 0.6) MB/sec 703MB max RSS After: readrandom [AVG 10 runs] : 851021 (± 7929) ops/sec; 59.5 (± 0.6) MB/sec 706MB max RSS Probably no material difference. ### Single-threaded performance Using `[-X2]` and `-threads=1` and `-duration=30`, running all three at the same time: lru_cache: 55100 ops/sec, then 55862 ops/sec (627MB max RSS) fixed_hyper_clock_cache: 60496 ops/sec, then 61231 ops/sec (626MB max RSS) auto_hyper_clock_cache: 47560 ops/sec, then 56081 ops/sec (626MB max RSS) So AutoHCC has more ramp-up cost in the first pass as the cache grows to the appropriate size. (In single-threaded operation, the parallelizability and per-op low latency of table growth is overall slower.) However, once up to size, its performance is comparable to LRUCache. FixedHCC's lean operations still win overall when a good estimate is available. If we look at HCC table stats, we can see that this configuration is not favorable to AutoHCC (and I have verified that other memory sizes do not yield substantially different results, until shards are under-sized for the full filters): FixedHCC: Slot occupancy stats: Overall 47% (124991/262144), Min/Max/Window = 28%/64%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 17/22 AutoHCC: Slot occupancy stats: Overall 59% (125781/209682), Min/Max/Window = 43%/82%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 76/16 Head occupancy stats: Overall 43% (92259/209682), Min/Max/Window = 24%/74%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 19/26 Entries at home count: 53350 FixedHCC configuration is relatively good for speed, and not ideal for space utilization. As is typical, AutoHCC has tighter control on metadata usage (209682 x 64 bytes rather than 262144 x 64 bytes), and the higher load factor is slightly worse for speed. LRUCache also has more metadata usage, at 199680 x 96 bytes of tracked metadata (plus roughly another 10% of that untracked in the head pointers), and that metadata is subject to fragmentation. ### Parallel performance, high hit rate Now using `[-X10]` and `-threads=10`, all three at the same time lru_cache: [AVG 10 runs] : 263629 (± 1425) ops/sec; 18.4 (± 0.1) MB/sec 655MB max RSS, 97.1% cache hit rate fixed_hyper_clock_cache: [AVG 10 runs] : 479590 (± 8114) ops/sec; 33.5 (± 0.6) MB/sec 651MB max RSS, 97.1% cache hit rate auto_hyper_clock_cache: [AVG 10 runs] : 418687 (± 5915) ops/sec; 29.3 (± 0.4) MB/sec 657MB max RSS, 97.1% cache hit rate Even with just 10-way parallelism for each cache (though 30+/48 cores busy overall), LRUCache is already showing performance degradation, while AutoHCC is in the neighborhood of FixedHCC. And that brings us to the question of how AutoHCC holds up under extreme parallelism, so now independent runs with `-threads=100` (overloading 48 cores). lru_cache: 438613 ops/sec, 827MB max RSS fixed_hyper_clock_cache: 1651310 ops/sec, 812MB max RSS auto_hyper_clock_cache: 1505875 ops/sec, 821MB max RSS (Yield count: 1089 over 30s) Clearly, AutoHCC holds up extremely well under extreme parallelism, even closing some of the modest performance gap with FixedHCC. ### Parallel performance, low hit rate To get down to roughly 50% cache hit rate, we use `-cache_index_and_filter_blocks=0 -cache_size=1650000000` with `-threads=10`. Here the extra cost of running counting clock eviction, especially on the chains of AutoHCC, are evident, especially with the lower contention of cache_index_and_filter_blocks=0: lru_cache: 725231 ops/sec, 1770MB max RSS, 51.3% hit rate fixed_hyper_clock_cache: 638620 ops/sec, 1765MB max RSS, 50.2% hit rate auto_hyper_clock_cache: 541018 ops/sec, 1777MB max RSS, 50.8% hit rate Reviewed By: jowlyzhang Differential Revision: D48784755 Pulled By: pdillinger fbshipit-source-id: e79813dc087474ac427637dd282a14fa3011a6e4

Revamp, optimize new experimental clock cache (#10626) Summary: * Consolidates most metadata into a single word per slot so that more can be accomplished with a single atomic update. In the common case, Lookup was previously about 4 atomic updates, now just 1 atomic update. Common case Release was previously 1 atomic read + 1 atomic update, now just 1 atomic update. * Eliminate spins / waits / yields, which likely threaten some "lock free" benefits. Compare-exchange loops are only used in explicit Erase, and strict_capacity_limit=true Insert. Eviction uses opportunistic compare- exchange. * Relaxes some aggressiveness and guarantees. For example, * Duplicate Inserts will sometimes go undetected and the shadow duplicate will age out with eviction. * In many cases, the older Inserted value for a given cache key will be kept (i.e. Insert does not support overwrite). * Entries explicitly erased (rather than evicted) might not be freed immediately in some rare cases. * With strict_capacity_limit=false, capacity limit is not tracked/enforced as precisely as LRUCache, but is self-correcting and should only deviate by a very small number of extra or fewer entries. * Use smaller "computed default" number of cache shards in many cases, because benefits to larger usage tracking / eviction pools outweigh the small cost of more lock-free atomic contention. The improvement in CPU and I/O is dramatic in some limit-memory cases. * Even without the sharding change, the eviction algorithm is likely more effective than LRU overall because it's more stateful, even though the "hot path" state tracking for it is essentially free with ref counting. It is like a generalized CLOCK with aging (see code comments). I don't have performance numbers showing a specific improvement, but in theory, for a Poisson access pattern to each block, keeping some state allows better estimation of time to next access (Poisson interval) than strict LRU. The bounded randomness in CLOCK can also reduce "cliff" effect for repeated range scans approaching and exceeding cache size. ## Hot path algorithm comparison Rough descriptions, focusing on number and kind of atomic operations: * Old `Lookup()` (2-5 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment internal ref count at slot If possible hit: Check flags atomic (and non-atomic fields) If cache hit: Three distinct updates to 'flags' atomic Increment refs for internal-to-external Return Decrement internal ref count while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * New `Lookup()` (1-2 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment acquire counter in meta word (optimistic) If visible entry (already read meta word): If match (read non-atomic fields): Return Else: Decrement acquire counter in meta word Else if invisible entry (rare, already read meta word): Decrement acquire counter in meta word while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * Old `Release()` (1 atomic update, conditional on atomic read, rarely more): ``` Read atomic ref count If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return Else: Decrement ref count ``` * New `Release()` (1 unconditional atomic update, rarely more): ``` Increment release counter in meta word If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return ``` ## Performance test setup Build DB with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` Test with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=${CACHE_MB}000000 -duration 60 -threads=$THREADS -statistics ``` Numbers on a single socket Skylake Xeon system with 48 hardware threads, DEBUG_LEVEL=0 PORTABLE=0.

Mutex-based implementation quickly becomes contention-limited. New clock cache shows essentially perfect scaling up to number of physical cores (24), and then each hyperthreaded core adding about 1/4 the throughput of an additional physical core (see 48 thread case). Block cache miss rates (omitted above) are negligible across the board. With partitioned instead of full filters, the maximum speed-up vs. base is more like 2.5x rather than 5x. Now test a large block cache with low miss ratio, but some eviction is required: 1597MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 46.603 io_bytes/op: 1584.63 miss_ratio: 0.0201066 max_rss_mb: 1589.23 1597MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 45.079 io_bytes/op: 1530.03 miss_ratio: 0.019872 max_rss_mb: 1550.43 1597MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 48.711 io_bytes/op: 1566.63 miss_ratio: 0.0198923 max_rss_mb: 1691.4 1597MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 51.531 io_bytes/op: 1589.07 miss_ratio: 0.0201969 max_rss_mb: 1583.56 1597MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 301.174 io_bytes/op: 1439.52 miss_ratio: 0.0184218 max_rss_mb: 1656.59 1597MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 273.09 io_bytes/op: 1375.12 miss_ratio: 0.0180002 max_rss_mb: 1586.8 1597MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 904.497 io_bytes/op: 1411.29 miss_ratio: 0.0179934 max_rss_mb: 1775.89 1597MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1182.59 io_bytes/op: 1440.77 miss_ratio: 0.0185449 max_rss_mb: 1636.45 1597MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 309.91 io_bytes/op: 1438.25 miss_ratio: 0.018399 max_rss_mb: 1689.98 1597MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 267.605 io_bytes/op: 1394.16 miss_ratio: 0.0180286 max_rss_mb: 1631.91 1597MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 691.518 io_bytes/op: 9056.73 miss_ratio: 0.0186572 max_rss_mb: 1982.26 1597MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1406.12 io_bytes/op: 1440.82 miss_ratio: 0.0185463 max_rss_mb: 1685.63 610MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 45.511 io_bytes/op: 2279.61 miss_ratio: 0.0290528 max_rss_mb: 615.137 610MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 43.386 io_bytes/op: 2217.29 miss_ratio: 0.0289282 max_rss_mb: 600.996 610MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 46.207 io_bytes/op: 2275.51 miss_ratio: 0.0290057 max_rss_mb: 637.934 610MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 48.879 io_bytes/op: 2283.1 miss_ratio: 0.0291253 max_rss_mb: 613.5 610MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 306.59 io_bytes/op: 2250 miss_ratio: 0.0288721 max_rss_mb: 683.402 610MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 269.176 io_bytes/op: 2187.86 miss_ratio: 0.0286938 max_rss_mb: 628.742 610MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 855.097 io_bytes/op: 2279.26 miss_ratio: 0.0288009 max_rss_mb: 733.062 610MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1121.47 io_bytes/op: 2244.29 miss_ratio: 0.0289046 max_rss_mb: 666.453 610MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 305.079 io_bytes/op: 2252.43 miss_ratio: 0.0288884 max_rss_mb: 723.457 610MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 269.583 io_bytes/op: 2204.58 miss_ratio: 0.0287001 max_rss_mb: 676.426 610MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 53.298 io_bytes/op: 8128.98 miss_ratio: 0.0292452 max_rss_mb: 956.273 610MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1301.09 io_bytes/op: 2246.04 miss_ratio: 0.0289171 max_rss_mb: 788.812 The new version is still winning every time, sometimes dramatically so, and we can tell from the maximum resident memory numbers (which contain some noise, by the way) that the new cache is not cheating on memory usage. IMPORTANT: The previous generation experimental clock cache appears to hit a serious bottleneck in the higher thread count configurations, presumably due to some of its waiting functionality. (The same bottleneck is not seen with partitioned index+filters.) Now we consider even smaller cache sizes, with higher miss ratios, eviction work, etc. 233MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 10.557 io_bytes/op: 227040 miss_ratio: 0.0403105 max_rss_mb: 247.371 233MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 15.348 io_bytes/op: 112007 miss_ratio: 0.0372238 max_rss_mb: 245.293 233MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 6.365 io_bytes/op: 244854 miss_ratio: 0.0413873 max_rss_mb: 259.844 233MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 47.501 io_bytes/op: 2591.93 miss_ratio: 0.0330989 max_rss_mb: 242.461 233MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 96.498 io_bytes/op: 363379 miss_ratio: 0.0459966 max_rss_mb: 479.227 233MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 109.95 io_bytes/op: 314799 miss_ratio: 0.0450032 max_rss_mb: 400.738 233MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 2.353 io_bytes/op: 385397 miss_ratio: 0.048445 max_rss_mb: 500.688 233MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1088.95 io_bytes/op: 2567.02 miss_ratio: 0.0330593 max_rss_mb: 303.402 233MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 84.302 io_bytes/op: 378020 miss_ratio: 0.0466558 max_rss_mb: 1051.84 233MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 89.921 io_bytes/op: 338242 miss_ratio: 0.0460309 max_rss_mb: 812.785 233MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 2.588 io_bytes/op: 462833 miss_ratio: 0.0509158 max_rss_mb: 1109.94 233MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1299.26 io_bytes/op: 2565.94 miss_ratio: 0.0330531 max_rss_mb: 361.016 89MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 0.574 io_bytes/op: 5.35977e+06 miss_ratio: 0.274427 max_rss_mb: 91.3086 89MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 0.578 io_bytes/op: 5.16549e+06 miss_ratio: 0.27276 max_rss_mb: 96.8984 89MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 0.512 io_bytes/op: 4.13111e+06 miss_ratio: 0.242817 max_rss_mb: 119.441 89MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 48.172 io_bytes/op: 2709.76 miss_ratio: 0.0346162 max_rss_mb: 100.754 89MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 5.779 io_bytes/op: 6.14192e+06 miss_ratio: 0.320399 max_rss_mb: 311.812 89MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 5.601 io_bytes/op: 5.83838e+06 miss_ratio: 0.313123 max_rss_mb: 252.418 89MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 0.77 io_bytes/op: 3.99236e+06 miss_ratio: 0.236296 max_rss_mb: 396.422 89MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1064.97 io_bytes/op: 2687.23 miss_ratio: 0.0346134 max_rss_mb: 155.293 89MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 4.959 io_bytes/op: 6.20297e+06 miss_ratio: 0.323945 max_rss_mb: 823.43 89MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 4.962 io_bytes/op: 5.9601e+06 miss_ratio: 0.319857 max_rss_mb: 626.824 89MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 1.009 io_bytes/op: 4.1083e+06 miss_ratio: 0.242512 max_rss_mb: 1095.32 89MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1224.39 io_bytes/op: 2688.2 miss_ratio: 0.0346207 max_rss_mb: 218.223 ^ Now something interesting has happened: the new clock cache has gained a dramatic lead in the single-threaded case, and this is because the cache is so small, and full filters are so big, that dividing the cache into 64 shards leads to significant (random) imbalances in cache shards and excessive churn in imbalanced shards. This new clock cache only uses two shards for this configuration, and that helps to ensure that entries are part of a sufficiently big pool that their eviction order resembles the single-shard order.

Revamp, optimize new experimental clock cache (#10626) Summary: * Consolidates most metadata into a single word per slot so that more can be accomplished with a single atomic update. In the common case, Lookup was previously about 4 atomic updates, now just 1 atomic update. Common case Release was previously 1 atomic read + 1 atomic update, now just 1 atomic update. * Eliminate spins / waits / yields, which likely threaten some "lock free" benefits. Compare-exchange loops are only used in explicit Erase, and strict_capacity_limit=true Insert. Eviction uses opportunistic compare- exchange. * Relaxes some aggressiveness and guarantees. For example, * Duplicate Inserts will sometimes go undetected and the shadow duplicate will age out with eviction. * In many cases, the older Inserted value for a given cache key will be kept (i.e. Insert does not support overwrite). * Entries explicitly erased (rather than evicted) might not be freed immediately in some rare cases. * With strict_capacity_limit=false, capacity limit is not tracked/enforced as precisely as LRUCache, but is self-correcting and should only deviate by a very small number of extra or fewer entries. * Use smaller "computed default" number of cache shards in many cases, because benefits to larger usage tracking / eviction pools outweigh the small cost of more lock-free atomic contention. The improvement in CPU and I/O is dramatic in some limit-memory cases. * Even without the sharding change, the eviction algorithm is likely more effective than LRU overall because it's more stateful, even though the "hot path" state tracking for it is essentially free with ref counting. It is like a generalized CLOCK with aging (see code comments). I don't have performance numbers showing a specific improvement, but in theory, for a Poisson access pattern to each block, keeping some state allows better estimation of time to next access (Poisson interval) than strict LRU. The bounded randomness in CLOCK can also reduce "cliff" effect for repeated range scans approaching and exceeding cache size. ## Hot path algorithm comparison Rough descriptions, focusing on number and kind of atomic operations: * Old `Lookup()` (2-5 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment internal ref count at slot If possible hit: Check flags atomic (and non-atomic fields) If cache hit: Three distinct updates to 'flags' atomic Increment refs for internal-to-external Return Decrement internal ref count while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * New `Lookup()` (1-2 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment acquire counter in meta word (optimistic) If visible entry (already read meta word): If match (read non-atomic fields): Return Else: Decrement acquire counter in meta word Else if invisible entry (rare, already read meta word): Decrement acquire counter in meta word while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * Old `Release()` (1 atomic update, conditional on atomic read, rarely more): ``` Read atomic ref count If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return Else: Decrement ref count ``` * New `Release()` (1 unconditional atomic update, rarely more): ``` Increment release counter in meta word If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return ``` ## Performance test setup Build DB with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` Test with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=${CACHE_MB}000000 -duration 60 -threads=$THREADS -statistics ``` Numbers on a single socket Skylake Xeon system with 48 hardware threads, DEBUG_LEVEL=0 PORTABLE=0.

Mutex-based implementation quickly becomes contention-limited. New clock cache shows essentially perfect scaling up to number of physical cores (24), and then each hyperthreaded core adding about 1/4 the throughput of an additional physical core (see 48 thread case). Block cache miss rates (omitted above) are negligible across the board. With partitioned instead of full filters, the maximum speed-up vs. base is more like 2.5x rather than 5x.

Revamp, optimize new experimental clock cache (#10626) Summary: * Consolidates most metadata into a single word per slot so that more can be accomplished with a single atomic update. In the common case, Lookup was previously about 4 atomic updates, now just 1 atomic update. Common case Release was previously 1 atomic read + 1 atomic update, now just 1 atomic update. * Eliminate spins / waits / yields, which likely threaten some "lock free" benefits. Compare-exchange loops are only used in explicit Erase, and strict_capacity_limit=true Insert. Eviction uses opportunistic compare- exchange. * Relaxes some aggressiveness and guarantees. For example, * Duplicate Inserts will sometimes go undetected and the shadow duplicate will age out with eviction. * In many cases, the older Inserted value for a given cache key will be kept (i.e. Insert does not support overwrite). * Entries explicitly erased (rather than evicted) might not be freed immediately in some rare cases. * With strict_capacity_limit=false, capacity limit is not tracked/enforced as precisely as LRUCache, but is self-correcting and should only deviate by a very small number of extra or fewer entries. * Use smaller "computed default" number of cache shards in many cases, because benefits to larger usage tracking / eviction pools outweigh the small cost of more lock-free atomic contention. The improvement in CPU and I/O is dramatic in some limit-memory cases. * Even without the sharding change, the eviction algorithm is likely more effective than LRU overall because it's more stateful, even though the "hot path" state tracking for it is essentially free with ref counting. It is like a generalized CLOCK with aging (see code comments). I don't have performance numbers showing a specific improvement, but in theory, for a Poisson access pattern to each block, keeping some state allows better estimation of time to next access (Poisson interval) than strict LRU. The bounded randomness in CLOCK can also reduce "cliff" effect for repeated range scans approaching and exceeding cache size. ## Hot path algorithm comparison Rough descriptions, focusing on number and kind of atomic operations: * Old `Lookup()` (2-5 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment internal ref count at slot If possible hit: Check flags atomic (and non-atomic fields) If cache hit: Three distinct updates to 'flags' atomic Increment refs for internal-to-external Return Decrement internal ref count while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * New `Lookup()` (1-2 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment acquire counter in meta word (optimistic) If visible entry (already read meta word): If match (read non-atomic fields): Return Else: Decrement acquire counter in meta word Else if invisible entry (rare, already read meta word): Decrement acquire counter in meta word while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * Old `Release()` (1 atomic update, conditional on atomic read, rarely more): ``` Read atomic ref count If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return Else: Decrement ref count ``` * New `Release()` (1 unconditional atomic update, rarely more): ``` Increment release counter in meta word If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return ``` ## Performance test setup Build DB with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` Test with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=${CACHE_MB}000000 -duration 60 -threads=$THREADS -statistics ``` Numbers on a single socket Skylake Xeon system with 48 hardware threads, DEBUG_LEVEL=0 PORTABLE=0. Very similar story on a dual socket system with 80 hardware threads. Using (every 2nd) Fibonacci MB cache sizes to sample the territory between powers of two. Configurations: base: LRUCache before this change, but with db_bench change to default cache_numshardbits=-1 (instead of fixed at 6) folly: LRUCache before this change, with folly enabled (distributed mutex) but on an old compiler (sorry) gt_clock: experimental ClockCache before this change new_clock: experimental ClockCache with this change ## Performance test results First test "hot path" read performance, with block cache large enough for whole DB: 4181MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 47.761 4181MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 45.877 4181MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 51.092 4181MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 53.944 4181MB 16thread base -> kops/s: 284.567 4181MB 16thread folly -> kops/s: 249.015 4181MB 16thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 743.762 4181MB 16thread new_clock -> kops/s: 861.821 4181MB 24thread base -> kops/s: 303.415 4181MB 24thread folly -> kops/s: 266.548 4181MB 24thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 975.706 4181MB 24thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1205.64 (~= 24 * 53.944) 4181MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 311.251 4181MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 274.952 4181MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 1045.98 4181MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1370.38 4181MB 48thread base -> kops/s: 310.504 4181MB 48thread folly -> kops/s: 268.322 4181MB 48thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 1195.65 4181MB 48thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1604.85 (~= 24 * 1.25 * 53.944) 4181MB 64thread base -> kops/s: 307.839 4181MB 64thread folly -> kops/s: 272.172 4181MB 64thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 1204.47 4181MB 64thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1615.37 4181MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 310.934 4181MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 267.468 4181MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 1188.75 4181MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1595.46 Whether we have just one thread on a quiet system or an overload of threads, the new version wins every time in thousand-ops per second, sometimes dramatically so. Mutex-based implementation quickly becomes contention-limited. New clock cache shows essentially perfect scaling up to number of physical cores (24), and then each hyperthreaded core adding about 1/4 the throughput of an additional physical core (see 48 thread case). Block cache miss rates (omitted above) are negligible across the board. With partitioned instead of full filters, the maximum speed-up vs. base is more like 2.5x rather than 5x. Now test a large block cache with low miss ratio, but some eviction is required: 1597MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 46.603 io_bytes/op: 1584.63 miss_ratio: 0.0201066 max_rss_mb: 1589.23 1597MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 45.079 io_bytes/op: 1530.03 miss_ratio: 0.019872 max_rss_mb: 1550.43 1597MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 48.711 io_bytes/op: 1566.63 miss_ratio: 0.0198923 max_rss_mb: 1691.4 1597MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 51.531 io_bytes/op: 1589.07 miss_ratio: 0.0201969 max_rss_mb: 1583.56 1597MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 301.174 io_bytes/op: 1439.52 miss_ratio: 0.0184218 max_rss_mb: 1656.59 1597MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 273.09 io_bytes/op: 1375.12 miss_ratio: 0.0180002 max_rss_mb: 1586.8 1597MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 904.497 io_bytes/op: 1411.29 miss_ratio: 0.0179934 max_rss_mb: 1775.89 1597MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1182.59 io_bytes/op: 1440.77 miss_ratio: 0.0185449 max_rss_mb: 1636.45 1597MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 309.91 io_bytes/op: 1438.25 miss_ratio: 0.018399 max_rss_mb: 1689.98 1597MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 267.605 io_bytes/op: 1394.16 miss_ratio: 0.0180286 max_rss_mb: 1631.91 1597MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 691.518 io_bytes/op: 9056.73 miss_ratio: 0.0186572 max_rss_mb: 1982.26 1597MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1406.12 io_bytes/op: 1440.82 miss_ratio: 0.0185463 max_rss_mb: 1685.63 610MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 45.511 io_bytes/op: 2279.61 miss_ratio: 0.0290528 max_rss_mb: 615.137 610MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 43.386 io_bytes/op: 2217.29 miss_ratio: 0.0289282 max_rss_mb: 600.996 610MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 46.207 io_bytes/op: 2275.51 miss_ratio: 0.0290057 max_rss_mb: 637.934 610MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 48.879 io_bytes/op: 2283.1 miss_ratio: 0.0291253 max_rss_mb: 613.5 610MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 306.59 io_bytes/op: 2250 miss_ratio: 0.0288721 max_rss_mb: 683.402 610MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 269.176 io_bytes/op: 2187.86 miss_ratio: 0.0286938 max_rss_mb: 628.742 610MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 855.097 io_bytes/op: 2279.26 miss_ratio: 0.0288009 max_rss_mb: 733.062 610MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1121.47 io_bytes/op: 2244.29 miss_ratio: 0.0289046 max_rss_mb: 666.453 610MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 305.079 io_bytes/op: 2252.43 miss_ratio: 0.0288884 max_rss_mb: 723.457 610MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 269.583 io_bytes/op: 2204.58 miss_ratio: 0.0287001 max_rss_mb: 676.426 610MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 53.298 io_bytes/op: 8128.98 miss_ratio: 0.0292452 max_rss_mb: 956.273 610MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1301.09 io_bytes/op: 2246.04 miss_ratio: 0.0289171 max_rss_mb: 788.812 The new version is still winning every time, sometimes dramatically so, and we can tell from the maximum resident memory numbers (which contain some noise, by the way) that the new cache is not cheating on memory usage. IMPORTANT: The previous generation experimental clock cache appears to hit a serious bottleneck in the higher thread count configurations, presumably due to some of its waiting functionality. (The same bottleneck is not seen with partitioned index+filters.) Now we consider even smaller cache sizes, with higher miss ratios, eviction work, etc. 233MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 10.557 io_bytes/op: 227040 miss_ratio: 0.0403105 max_rss_mb: 247.371 233MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 15.348 io_bytes/op: 112007 miss_ratio: 0.0372238 max_rss_mb: 245.293 233MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 6.365 io_bytes/op: 244854 miss_ratio: 0.0413873 max_rss_mb: 259.844 233MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 47.501 io_bytes/op: 2591.93 miss_ratio: 0.0330989 max_rss_mb: 242.461 233MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 96.498 io_bytes/op: 363379 miss_ratio: 0.0459966 max_rss_mb: 479.227 233MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 109.95 io_bytes/op: 314799 miss_ratio: 0.0450032 max_rss_mb: 400.738 233MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 2.353 io_bytes/op: 385397 miss_ratio: 0.048445 max_rss_mb: 500.688 233MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1088.95 io_bytes/op: 2567.02 miss_ratio: 0.0330593 max_rss_mb: 303.402 233MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 84.302 io_bytes/op: 378020 miss_ratio: 0.0466558 max_rss_mb: 1051.84 233MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 89.921 io_bytes/op: 338242 miss_ratio: 0.0460309 max_rss_mb: 812.785 233MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 2.588 io_bytes/op: 462833 miss_ratio: 0.0509158 max_rss_mb: 1109.94 233MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1299.26 io_bytes/op: 2565.94 miss_ratio: 0.0330531 max_rss_mb: 361.016 89MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 0.574 io_bytes/op: 5.35977e+06 miss_ratio: 0.274427 max_rss_mb: 91.3086 89MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 0.578 io_bytes/op: 5.16549e+06 miss_ratio: 0.27276 max_rss_mb: 96.8984 89MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 0.512 io_bytes/op: 4.13111e+06 miss_ratio: 0.242817 max_rss_mb: 119.441 89MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 48.172 io_bytes/op: 2709.76 miss_ratio: 0.0346162 max_rss_mb: 100.754 89MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 5.779 io_bytes/op: 6.14192e+06 miss_ratio: 0.320399 max_rss_mb: 311.812 89MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 5.601 io_bytes/op: 5.83838e+06 miss_ratio: 0.313123 max_rss_mb: 252.418 89MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 0.77 io_bytes/op: 3.99236e+06 miss_ratio: 0.236296 max_rss_mb: 396.422 89MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1064.97 io_bytes/op: 2687.23 miss_ratio: 0.0346134 max_rss_mb: 155.293 89MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 4.959 io_bytes/op: 6.20297e+06 miss_ratio: 0.323945 max_rss_mb: 823.43 89MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 4.962 io_bytes/op: 5.9601e+06 miss_ratio: 0.319857 max_rss_mb: 626.824 89MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 1.009 io_bytes/op: 4.1083e+06 miss_ratio: 0.242512 max_rss_mb: 1095.32 89MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1224.39 io_bytes/op: 2688.2 miss_ratio: 0.0346207 max_rss_mb: 218.223 ^ Now something interesting has happened: the new clock cache has gained a dramatic lead in the single-threaded case, and this is because the cache is so small, and full filters are so big, that dividing the cache into 64 shards leads to significant (random) imbalances in cache shards and excessive churn in imbalanced shards. This new clock cache only uses two shards for this configuration, and that helps to ensure that entries are part of a sufficiently big pool that their eviction order resembles the single-shard order.

Revamp, optimize new experimental clock cache (#10626) Summary: * Consolidates most metadata into a single word per slot so that more can be accomplished with a single atomic update. In the common case, Lookup was previously about 4 atomic updates, now just 1 atomic update. Common case Release was previously 1 atomic read + 1 atomic update, now just 1 atomic update. * Eliminate spins / waits / yields, which likely threaten some "lock free" benefits. Compare-exchange loops are only used in explicit Erase, and strict_capacity_limit=true Insert. Eviction uses opportunistic compare- exchange. * Relaxes some aggressiveness and guarantees. For example, * Duplicate Inserts will sometimes go undetected and the shadow duplicate will age out with eviction. * In many cases, the older Inserted value for a given cache key will be kept (i.e. Insert does not support overwrite). * Entries explicitly erased (rather than evicted) might not be freed immediately in some rare cases. * With strict_capacity_limit=false, capacity limit is not tracked/enforced as precisely as LRUCache, but is self-correcting and should only deviate by a very small number of extra or fewer entries. * Use smaller "computed default" number of cache shards in many cases, because benefits to larger usage tracking / eviction pools outweigh the small cost of more lock-free atomic contention. The improvement in CPU and I/O is dramatic in some limit-memory cases. * Even without the sharding change, the eviction algorithm is likely more effective than LRU overall because it's more stateful, even though the "hot path" state tracking for it is essentially free with ref counting. It is like a generalized CLOCK with aging (see code comments). I don't have performance numbers showing a specific improvement, but in theory, for a Poisson access pattern to each block, keeping some state allows better estimation of time to next access (Poisson interval) than strict LRU. The bounded randomness in CLOCK can also reduce "cliff" effect for repeated range scans approaching and exceeding cache size. ## Hot path algorithm comparison Rough descriptions, focusing on number and kind of atomic operations: * Old `Lookup()` (2-5 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment internal ref count at slot If possible hit: Check flags atomic (and non-atomic fields) If cache hit: Three distinct updates to 'flags' atomic Increment refs for internal-to-external Return Decrement internal ref count while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * New `Lookup()` (1-2 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment acquire counter in meta word (optimistic) If visible entry (already read meta word): If match (read non-atomic fields): Return Else: Decrement acquire counter in meta word Else if invisible entry (rare, already read meta word): Decrement acquire counter in meta word while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * Old `Release()` (1 atomic update, conditional on atomic read, rarely more): ``` Read atomic ref count If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return Else: Decrement ref count ``` * New `Release()` (1 unconditional atomic update, rarely more): ``` Increment release counter in meta word If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return ``` ## Performance test setup Build DB with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` Test with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=${CACHE_MB}000000 -duration 60 -threads=$THREADS -statistics ``` Numbers on a single socket Skylake Xeon system with 48 hardware threads, DEBUG_LEVEL=0 PORTABLE=0. Very similar story on a dual socket system with 80 hardware threads. Using (every 2nd) Fibonacci MB cache sizes to sample the territory between powers of two. Configurations: base: LRUCache before this change, but with db_bench change to default cache_numshardbits=-1 (instead of fixed at 6) folly: LRUCache before this change, with folly enabled (distributed mutex) but on an old compiler (sorry) gt_clock: experimental ClockCache before this change new_clock: experimental ClockCache with this change ## Performance test results First test "hot path" read performance, with block cache large enough for whole DB: 4181MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 47.761 4181MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 45.877 4181MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 51.092 4181MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 53.944 4181MB 16thread base -> kops/s: 284.567 4181MB 16thread folly -> kops/s: 249.015 4181MB 16thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 743.762 4181MB 16thread new_clock -> kops/s: 861.821 4181MB 24thread base -> kops/s: 303.415 4181MB 24thread folly -> kops/s: 266.548 4181MB 24thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 975.706 4181MB 24thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1205.64 (~= 24 * 53.944) 4181MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 311.251 4181MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 274.952 4181MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 1045.98 4181MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1370.38 4181MB 48thread base -> kops/s: 310.504 4181MB 48thread folly -> kops/s: 268.322 4181MB 48thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 1195.65 4181MB 48thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1604.85 (~= 24 * 1.25 * 53.944) 4181MB 64thread base -> kops/s: 307.839 4181MB 64thread folly -> kops/s: 272.172 4181MB 64thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 1204.47 4181MB 64thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1615.37 4181MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 310.934 4181MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 267.468 4181MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 1188.75 4181MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1595.46 Whether we have just one thread on a quiet system or an overload of threads, the new version wins every time in thousand-ops per second, sometimes dramatically so. Mutex-based implementation quickly becomes contention-limited. New clock cache shows essentially perfect scaling up to number of physical cores (24), and then each hyperthreaded core adding about 1/4 the throughput of an additional physical core (see 48 thread case). Block cache miss rates (omitted above) are negligible across the board. With partitioned instead of full filters, the maximum speed-up vs. base is more like 2.5x rather than 5x. Now test a large block cache with low miss ratio, but some eviction is required: 1597MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 46.603 io_bytes/op: 1584.63 miss_ratio: 0.0201066 max_rss_mb: 1589.23 1597MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 45.079 io_bytes/op: 1530.03 miss_ratio: 0.019872 max_rss_mb: 1550.43 1597MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 48.711 io_bytes/op: 1566.63 miss_ratio: 0.0198923 max_rss_mb: 1691.4 1597MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 51.531 io_bytes/op: 1589.07 miss_ratio: 0.0201969 max_rss_mb: 1583.56 1597MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 301.174 io_bytes/op: 1439.52 miss_ratio: 0.0184218 max_rss_mb: 1656.59 1597MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 273.09 io_bytes/op: 1375.12 miss_ratio: 0.0180002 max_rss_mb: 1586.8 1597MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 904.497 io_bytes/op: 1411.29 miss_ratio: 0.0179934 max_rss_mb: 1775.89 1597MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1182.59 io_bytes/op: 1440.77 miss_ratio: 0.0185449 max_rss_mb: 1636.45 1597MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 309.91 io_bytes/op: 1438.25 miss_ratio: 0.018399 max_rss_mb: 1689.98 1597MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 267.605 io_bytes/op: 1394.16 miss_ratio: 0.0180286 max_rss_mb: 1631.91 1597MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 691.518 io_bytes/op: 9056.73 miss_ratio: 0.0186572 max_rss_mb: 1982.26 1597MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1406.12 io_bytes/op: 1440.82 miss_ratio: 0.0185463 max_rss_mb: 1685.63 610MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 45.511 io_bytes/op: 2279.61 miss_ratio: 0.0290528 max_rss_mb: 615.137 610MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 43.386 io_bytes/op: 2217.29 miss_ratio: 0.0289282 max_rss_mb: 600.996 610MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 46.207 io_bytes/op: 2275.51 miss_ratio: 0.0290057 max_rss_mb: 637.934 610MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 48.879 io_bytes/op: 2283.1 miss_ratio: 0.0291253 max_rss_mb: 613.5 610MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 306.59 io_bytes/op: 2250 miss_ratio: 0.0288721 max_rss_mb: 683.402 610MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 269.176 io_bytes/op: 2187.86 miss_ratio: 0.0286938 max_rss_mb: 628.742 610MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 855.097 io_bytes/op: 2279.26 miss_ratio: 0.0288009 max_rss_mb: 733.062 610MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1121.47 io_bytes/op: 2244.29 miss_ratio: 0.0289046 max_rss_mb: 666.453 610MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 305.079 io_bytes/op: 2252.43 miss_ratio: 0.0288884 max_rss_mb: 723.457 610MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 269.583 io_bytes/op: 2204.58 miss_ratio: 0.0287001 max_rss_mb: 676.426 610MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 53.298 io_bytes/op: 8128.98 miss_ratio: 0.0292452 max_rss_mb: 956.273 610MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1301.09 io_bytes/op: 2246.04 miss_ratio: 0.0289171 max_rss_mb: 788.812 The new version is still winning every time, sometimes dramatically so, and we can tell from the maximum resident memory numbers (which contain some noise, by the way) that the new cache is not cheating on memory usage. IMPORTANT: The previous generation experimental clock cache appears to hit a serious bottleneck in the higher thread count configurations, presumably due to some of its waiting functionality. (The same bottleneck is not seen with partitioned index+filters.) Now we consider even smaller cache sizes, with higher miss ratios, eviction work, etc. 233MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 10.557 io_bytes/op: 227040 miss_ratio: 0.0403105 max_rss_mb: 247.371 233MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 15.348 io_bytes/op: 112007 miss_ratio: 0.0372238 max_rss_mb: 245.293 233MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 6.365 io_bytes/op: 244854 miss_ratio: 0.0413873 max_rss_mb: 259.844 233MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 47.501 io_bytes/op: 2591.93 miss_ratio: 0.0330989 max_rss_mb: 242.461 233MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 96.498 io_bytes/op: 363379 miss_ratio: 0.0459966 max_rss_mb: 479.227 233MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 109.95 io_bytes/op: 314799 miss_ratio: 0.0450032 max_rss_mb: 400.738 233MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 2.353 io_bytes/op: 385397 miss_ratio: 0.048445 max_rss_mb: 500.688 233MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1088.95 io_bytes/op: 2567.02 miss_ratio: 0.0330593 max_rss_mb: 303.402 233MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 84.302 io_bytes/op: 378020 miss_ratio: 0.0466558 max_rss_mb: 1051.84 233MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 89.921 io_bytes/op: 338242 miss_ratio: 0.0460309 max_rss_mb: 812.785 233MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 2.588 io_bytes/op: 462833 miss_ratio: 0.0509158 max_rss_mb: 1109.94 233MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1299.26 io_bytes/op: 2565.94 miss_ratio: 0.0330531 max_rss_mb: 361.016 89MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 0.574 io_bytes/op: 5.35977e+06 miss_ratio: 0.274427 max_rss_mb: 91.3086 89MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 0.578 io_bytes/op: 5.16549e+06 miss_ratio: 0.27276 max_rss_mb: 96.8984 89MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 0.512 io_bytes/op: 4.13111e+06 miss_ratio: 0.242817 max_rss_mb: 119.441 89MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 48.172 io_bytes/op: 2709.76 miss_ratio: 0.0346162 max_rss_mb: 100.754 89MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 5.779 io_bytes/op: 6.14192e+06 miss_ratio: 0.320399 max_rss_mb: 311.812 89MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 5.601 io_bytes/op: 5.83838e+06 miss_ratio: 0.313123 max_rss_mb: 252.418 89MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 0.77 io_bytes/op: 3.99236e+06 miss_ratio: 0.236296 max_rss_mb: 396.422 89MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1064.97 io_bytes/op: 2687.23 miss_ratio: 0.0346134 max_rss_mb: 155.293 89MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 4.959 io_bytes/op: 6.20297e+06 miss_ratio: 0.323945 max_rss_mb: 823.43 89MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 4.962 io_bytes/op: 5.9601e+06 miss_ratio: 0.319857 max_rss_mb: 626.824 89MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 1.009 io_bytes/op: 4.1083e+06 miss_ratio: 0.242512 max_rss_mb: 1095.32 89MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1224.39 io_bytes/op: 2688.2 miss_ratio: 0.0346207 max_rss_mb: 218.223 ^ Now something interesting has happened: the new clock cache has gained a dramatic lead in the single-threaded case, and this is because the cache is so small, and full filters are so big, that dividing the cache into 64 shards leads to significant (random) imbalances in cache shards and excessive churn in imbalanced shards. This new clock cache only uses two shards for this configuration, and that helps to ensure that entries are part of a sufficiently big pool that their eviction order resembles the single-shard order.

Revamp, optimize new experimental clock cache (#10626) Summary: * Consolidates most metadata into a single word per slot so that more can be accomplished with a single atomic update. In the common case, Lookup was previously about 4 atomic updates, now just 1 atomic update. Common case Release was previously 1 atomic read + 1 atomic update, now just 1 atomic update. * Eliminate spins / waits / yields, which likely threaten some "lock free" benefits. Compare-exchange loops are only used in explicit Erase, and strict_capacity_limit=true Insert. Eviction uses opportunistic compare- exchange. * Relaxes some aggressiveness and guarantees. For example, * Duplicate Inserts will sometimes go undetected and the shadow duplicate will age out with eviction. * In many cases, the older Inserted value for a given cache key will be kept (i.e. Insert does not support overwrite). * Entries explicitly erased (rather than evicted) might not be freed immediately in some rare cases. * With strict_capacity_limit=false, capacity limit is not tracked/enforced as precisely as LRUCache, but is self-correcting and should only deviate by a very small number of extra or fewer entries. * Use smaller "computed default" number of cache shards in many cases, because benefits to larger usage tracking / eviction pools outweigh the small cost of more lock-free atomic contention. The improvement in CPU and I/O is dramatic in some limit-memory cases. * Even without the sharding change, the eviction algorithm is likely more effective than LRU overall because it's more stateful, even though the "hot path" state tracking for it is essentially free with ref counting. It is like a generalized CLOCK with aging (see code comments). I don't have performance numbers showing a specific improvement, but in theory, for a Poisson access pattern to each block, keeping some state allows better estimation of time to next access (Poisson interval) than strict LRU. The bounded randomness in CLOCK can also reduce "cliff" effect for repeated range scans approaching and exceeding cache size. ## Hot path algorithm comparison Rough descriptions, focusing on number and kind of atomic operations: * Old `Lookup()` (2-5 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment internal ref count at slot If possible hit: Check flags atomic (and non-atomic fields) If cache hit: Three distinct updates to 'flags' atomic Increment refs for internal-to-external Return Decrement internal ref count while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * New `Lookup()` (1-2 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment acquire counter in meta word (optimistic) If visible entry (already read meta word): If match (read non-atomic fields): Return Else: Decrement acquire counter in meta word Else if invisible entry (rare, already read meta word): Decrement acquire counter in meta word while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * Old `Release()` (1 atomic update, conditional on atomic read, rarely more): ``` Read atomic ref count If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return Else: Decrement ref count ``` * New `Release()` (1 unconditional atomic update, rarely more): ``` Increment release counter in meta word If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return ``` ## Performance test setup Build DB with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` Test with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=${CACHE_MB}000000 -duration 60 -threads=$THREADS -statistics ``` Numbers on a single socket Skylake Xeon system with 48 hardware threads, DEBUG_LEVEL=0 PORTABLE=0. Very similar story on a dual socket system with 80 hardware threads. Using (every 2nd) Fibonacci MB cache sizes to sample the territory between powers of two. Configurations: base: LRUCache before this change, but with db_bench change to default cache_numshardbits=-1 (instead of fixed at 6) folly: LRUCache before this change, with folly enabled (distributed mutex) but on an old compiler (sorry) gt_clock: experimental ClockCache before this change new_clock: experimental ClockCache with this change ## Performance test results First test "hot path" read performance, with block cache large enough for whole DB: 4181MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 47.761 4181MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 45.877 4181MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 51.092 4181MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 53.944 4181MB 16thread base -> kops/s: 284.567 4181MB 16thread folly -> kops/s: 249.015 4181MB 16thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 743.762 4181MB 16thread new_clock -> kops/s: 861.821 4181MB 24thread base -> kops/s: 303.415 4181MB 24thread folly -> kops/s: 266.548 4181MB 24thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 975.706 4181MB 24thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1205.64 (~= 24 * 53.944) 4181MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 311.251 4181MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 274.952 4181MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 1045.98 4181MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1370.38 4181MB 48thread base -> kops/s: 310.504 4181MB 48thread folly -> kops/s: 268.322 4181MB 48thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 1195.65 4181MB 48thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1604.85 (~= 24 * 1.25 * 53.944) 4181MB 64thread base -> kops/s: 307.839 4181MB 64thread folly -> kops/s: 272.172 4181MB 64thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 1204.47 4181MB 64thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1615.37 4181MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 310.934 4181MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 267.468 4181MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 1188.75 4181MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1595.46 Whether we have just one thread on a quiet system or an overload of threads, the new version wins every time in thousand-ops per second, sometimes dramatically so. Mutex-based implementation quickly becomes contention-limited. New clock cache shows essentially perfect scaling up to number of physical cores (24), and then each hyperthreaded core adding about 1/4 the throughput of an additional physical core (see 48 thread case). Block cache miss rates (omitted above) are negligible across the board. With partitioned instead of full filters, the maximum speed-up vs. base is more like 2.5x rather than 5x. Now test a large block cache with low miss ratio, but some eviction is required: 1597MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 46.603 io_bytes/op: 1584.63 miss_ratio: 0.0201066 max_rss_mb: 1589.23 1597MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 45.079 io_bytes/op: 1530.03 miss_ratio: 0.019872 max_rss_mb: 1550.43 1597MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 48.711 io_bytes/op: 1566.63 miss_ratio: 0.0198923 max_rss_mb: 1691.4 1597MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 51.531 io_bytes/op: 1589.07 miss_ratio: 0.0201969 max_rss_mb: 1583.56 1597MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 301.174 io_bytes/op: 1439.52 miss_ratio: 0.0184218 max_rss_mb: 1656.59 1597MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 273.09 io_bytes/op: 1375.12 miss_ratio: 0.0180002 max_rss_mb: 1586.8 1597MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 904.497 io_bytes/op: 1411.29 miss_ratio: 0.0179934 max_rss_mb: 1775.89 1597MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1182.59 io_bytes/op: 1440.77 miss_ratio: 0.0185449 max_rss_mb: 1636.45 1597MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 309.91 io_bytes/op: 1438.25 miss_ratio: 0.018399 max_rss_mb: 1689.98 1597MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 267.605 io_bytes/op: 1394.16 miss_ratio: 0.0180286 max_rss_mb: 1631.91 1597MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 691.518 io_bytes/op: 9056.73 miss_ratio: 0.0186572 max_rss_mb: 1982.26 1597MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1406.12 io_bytes/op: 1440.82 miss_ratio: 0.0185463 max_rss_mb: 1685.63 610MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 45.511 io_bytes/op: 2279.61 miss_ratio: 0.0290528 max_rss_mb: 615.137 610MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 43.386 io_bytes/op: 2217.29 miss_ratio: 0.0289282 max_rss_mb: 600.996 610MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 46.207 io_bytes/op: 2275.51 miss_ratio: 0.0290057 max_rss_mb: 637.934 610MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 48.879 io_bytes/op: 2283.1 miss_ratio: 0.0291253 max_rss_mb: 613.5 610MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 306.59 io_bytes/op: 2250 miss_ratio: 0.0288721 max_rss_mb: 683.402 610MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 269.176 io_bytes/op: 2187.86 miss_ratio: 0.0286938 max_rss_mb: 628.742 610MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 855.097 io_bytes/op: 2279.26 miss_ratio: 0.0288009 max_rss_mb: 733.062 610MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1121.47 io_bytes/op: 2244.29 miss_ratio: 0.0289046 max_rss_mb: 666.453 610MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 305.079 io_bytes/op: 2252.43 miss_ratio: 0.0288884 max_rss_mb: 723.457 610MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 269.583 io_bytes/op: 2204.58 miss_ratio: 0.0287001 max_rss_mb: 676.426 610MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 53.298 io_bytes/op: 8128.98 miss_ratio: 0.0292452 max_rss_mb: 956.273 610MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1301.09 io_bytes/op: 2246.04 miss_ratio: 0.0289171 max_rss_mb: 788.812 The new version is still winning every time, sometimes dramatically so, and we can tell from the maximum resident memory numbers (which contain some noise, by the way) that the new cache is not cheating on memory usage. IMPORTANT: The previous generation experimental clock cache appears to hit a serious bottleneck in the higher thread count configurations, presumably due to some of its waiting functionality. (The same bottleneck is not seen with partitioned index+filters.) Now we consider even smaller cache sizes, with higher miss ratios, eviction work, etc. 233MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 10.557 io_bytes/op: 227040 miss_ratio: 0.0403105 max_rss_mb: 247.371 233MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 15.348 io_bytes/op: 112007 miss_ratio: 0.0372238 max_rss_mb: 245.293 233MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 6.365 io_bytes/op: 244854 miss_ratio: 0.0413873 max_rss_mb: 259.844 233MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 47.501 io_bytes/op: 2591.93 miss_ratio: 0.0330989 max_rss_mb: 242.461 233MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 96.498 io_bytes/op: 363379 miss_ratio: 0.0459966 max_rss_mb: 479.227 233MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 109.95 io_bytes/op: 314799 miss_ratio: 0.0450032 max_rss_mb: 400.738 233MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 2.353 io_bytes/op: 385397 miss_ratio: 0.048445 max_rss_mb: 500.688 233MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1088.95 io_bytes/op: 2567.02 miss_ratio: 0.0330593 max_rss_mb: 303.402 233MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 84.302 io_bytes/op: 378020 miss_ratio: 0.0466558 max_rss_mb: 1051.84 233MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 89.921 io_bytes/op: 338242 miss_ratio: 0.0460309 max_rss_mb: 812.785 233MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 2.588 io_bytes/op: 462833 miss_ratio: 0.0509158 max_rss_mb: 1109.94 233MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1299.26 io_bytes/op: 2565.94 miss_ratio: 0.0330531 max_rss_mb: 361.016 89MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 0.574 io_bytes/op: 5.35977e+06 miss_ratio: 0.274427 max_rss_mb: 91.3086 89MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 0.578 io_bytes/op: 5.16549e+06 miss_ratio: 0.27276 max_rss_mb: 96.8984 89MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 0.512 io_bytes/op: 4.13111e+06 miss_ratio: 0.242817 max_rss_mb: 119.441 89MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 48.172 io_bytes/op: 2709.76 miss_ratio: 0.0346162 max_rss_mb: 100.754 89MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 5.779 io_bytes/op: 6.14192e+06 miss_ratio: 0.320399 max_rss_mb: 311.812 89MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 5.601 io_bytes/op: 5.83838e+06 miss_ratio: 0.313123 max_rss_mb: 252.418 89MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 0.77 io_bytes/op: 3.99236e+06 miss_ratio: 0.236296 max_rss_mb: 396.422 89MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1064.97 io_bytes/op: 2687.23 miss_ratio: 0.0346134 max_rss_mb: 155.293 89MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 4.959 io_bytes/op: 6.20297e+06 miss_ratio: 0.323945 max_rss_mb: 823.43 89MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 4.962 io_bytes/op: 5.9601e+06 miss_ratio: 0.319857 max_rss_mb: 626.824 89MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 1.009 io_bytes/op: 4.1083e+06 miss_ratio: 0.242512 max_rss_mb: 1095.32 89MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1224.39 io_bytes/op: 2688.2 miss_ratio: 0.0346207 max_rss_mb: 218.223 ^ Now something interesting has happened: the new clock cache has gained a dramatic lead in the single-threaded case, and this is because the cache is so small, and full filters are so big, that dividing the cache into 64 shards leads to significant (random) imbalances in cache shards and excessive churn in imbalanced shards. This new clock cache only uses two shards for this configuration, and that helps to ensure that entries are part of a sufficiently big pool that their eviction order resembles the single-shard order.

Revamp, optimize new experimental clock cache (#10626) Summary: * Consolidates most metadata into a single word per slot so that more can be accomplished with a single atomic update. In the common case, Lookup was previously about 4 atomic updates, now just 1 atomic update. Common case Release was previously 1 atomic read + 1 atomic update, now just 1 atomic update. * Eliminate spins / waits / yields, which likely threaten some "lock free" benefits. Compare-exchange loops are only used in explicit Erase, and strict_capacity_limit=true Insert. Eviction uses opportunistic compare- exchange. * Relaxes some aggressiveness and guarantees. For example, * Duplicate Inserts will sometimes go undetected and the shadow duplicate will age out with eviction. * In many cases, the older Inserted value for a given cache key will be kept (i.e. Insert does not support overwrite). * Entries explicitly erased (rather than evicted) might not be freed immediately in some rare cases. * With strict_capacity_limit=false, capacity limit is not tracked/enforced as precisely as LRUCache, but is self-correcting and should only deviate by a very small number of extra or fewer entries. * Use smaller "computed default" number of cache shards in many cases, because benefits to larger usage tracking / eviction pools outweigh the small cost of more lock-free atomic contention. The improvement in CPU and I/O is dramatic in some limit-memory cases. * Even without the sharding change, the eviction algorithm is likely more effective than LRU overall because it's more stateful, even though the "hot path" state tracking for it is essentially free with ref counting. It is like a generalized CLOCK with aging (see code comments). I don't have performance numbers showing a specific improvement, but in theory, for a Poisson access pattern to each block, keeping some state allows better estimation of time to next access (Poisson interval) than strict LRU. The bounded randomness in CLOCK can also reduce "cliff" effect for repeated range scans approaching and exceeding cache size. ## Hot path algorithm comparison Rough descriptions, focusing on number and kind of atomic operations: * Old `Lookup()` (2-5 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment internal ref count at slot If possible hit: Check flags atomic (and non-atomic fields) If cache hit: Three distinct updates to 'flags' atomic Increment refs for internal-to-external Return Decrement internal ref count while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * New `Lookup()` (1-2 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment acquire counter in meta word (optimistic) If visible entry (already read meta word): If match (read non-atomic fields): Return Else: Decrement acquire counter in meta word Else if invisible entry (rare, already read meta word): Decrement acquire counter in meta word while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * Old `Release()` (1 atomic update, conditional on atomic read, rarely more): ``` Read atomic ref count If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return Else: Decrement ref count ``` * New `Release()` (1 unconditional atomic update, rarely more): ``` Increment release counter in meta word If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return ``` ## Performance test setup Build DB with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` Test with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=${CACHE_MB}000000 -duration 60 -threads=$THREADS -statistics ``` Numbers on a single socket Skylake Xeon system with 48 hardware threads, DEBUG_LEVEL=0 PORTABLE=0. Very similar story on a dual socket system with 80 hardware threads. Using (every 2nd) Fibonacci MB cache sizes to sample the territory between powers of two. Configurations: base: LRUCache before this change, but with db_bench change to default cache_numshardbits=-1 (instead of fixed at 6) folly: LRUCache before this change, with folly enabled (distributed mutex) but on an old compiler (sorry) gt_clock: experimental ClockCache before this change new_clock: experimental ClockCache with this change ## Performance test results First test "hot path" read performance, with block cache large enough for whole DB: 4181MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 47.761 4181MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 45.877 4181MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 51.092 4181MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 53.944 4181MB 16thread base -> kops/s: 284.567 4181MB 16thread folly -> kops/s: 249.015 4181MB 16thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 743.762 4181MB 16thread new_clock -> kops/s: 861.821 4181MB 24thread base -> kops/s: 303.415 4181MB 24thread folly -> kops/s: 266.548 4181MB 24thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 975.706 4181MB 24thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1205.64 (~= 24 * 53.944) 4181MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 311.251 4181MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 274.952 4181MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 1045.98 4181MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1370.38 4181MB 48thread base -> kops/s: 310.504 4181MB 48thread folly -> kops/s: 268.322 4181MB 48thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 1195.65 4181MB 48thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1604.85 (~= 24 * 1.25 * 53.944) 4181MB 64thread base -> kops/s: 307.839 4181MB 64thread folly -> kops/s: 272.172 4181MB 64thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 1204.47 4181MB 64thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1615.37 4181MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 310.934 4181MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 267.468 4181MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 1188.75 4181MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1595.46 Whether we have just one thread on a quiet system or an overload of threads, the new version wins every time in thousand-ops per second, sometimes dramatically so. Mutex-based implementation quickly becomes contention-limited. New clock cache shows essentially perfect scaling up to number of physical cores (24), and then each hyperthreaded core adding about 1/4 the throughput of an additional physical core (see 48 thread case). Block cache miss rates (omitted above) are negligible across the board. With partitioned instead of full filters, the maximum speed-up vs. base is more like 2.5x rather than 5x. Now test a large block cache with low miss ratio, but some eviction is required: 1597MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 46.603 io_bytes/op: 1584.63 miss_ratio: 0.0201066 max_rss_mb: 1589.23 1597MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 45.079 io_bytes/op: 1530.03 miss_ratio: 0.019872 max_rss_mb: 1550.43 1597MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 48.711 io_bytes/op: 1566.63 miss_ratio: 0.0198923 max_rss_mb: 1691.4 1597MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 51.531 io_bytes/op: 1589.07 miss_ratio: 0.0201969 max_rss_mb: 1583.56 1597MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 301.174 io_bytes/op: 1439.52 miss_ratio: 0.0184218 max_rss_mb: 1656.59 1597MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 273.09 io_bytes/op: 1375.12 miss_ratio: 0.0180002 max_rss_mb: 1586.8 1597MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 904.497 io_bytes/op: 1411.29 miss_ratio: 0.0179934 max_rss_mb: 1775.89 1597MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1182.59 io_bytes/op: 1440.77 miss_ratio: 0.0185449 max_rss_mb: 1636.45 1597MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 309.91 io_bytes/op: 1438.25 miss_ratio: 0.018399 max_rss_mb: 1689.98 1597MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 267.605 io_bytes/op: 1394.16 miss_ratio: 0.0180286 max_rss_mb: 1631.91 1597MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 691.518 io_bytes/op: 9056.73 miss_ratio: 0.0186572 max_rss_mb: 1982.26 1597MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1406.12 io_bytes/op: 1440.82 miss_ratio: 0.0185463 max_rss_mb: 1685.63 610MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 45.511 io_bytes/op: 2279.61 miss_ratio: 0.0290528 max_rss_mb: 615.137 610MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 43.386 io_bytes/op: 2217.29 miss_ratio: 0.0289282 max_rss_mb: 600.996 610MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 46.207 io_bytes/op: 2275.51 miss_ratio: 0.0290057 max_rss_mb: 637.934 610MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 48.879 io_bytes/op: 2283.1 miss_ratio: 0.0291253 max_rss_mb: 613.5 610MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 306.59 io_bytes/op: 2250 miss_ratio: 0.0288721 max_rss_mb: 683.402 610MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 269.176 io_bytes/op: 2187.86 miss_ratio: 0.0286938 max_rss_mb: 628.742 610MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 855.097 io_bytes/op: 2279.26 miss_ratio: 0.0288009 max_rss_mb: 733.062 610MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1121.47 io_bytes/op: 2244.29 miss_ratio: 0.0289046 max_rss_mb: 666.453 610MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 305.079 io_bytes/op: 2252.43 miss_ratio: 0.0288884 max_rss_mb: 723.457 610MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 269.583 io_bytes/op: 2204.58 miss_ratio: 0.0287001 max_rss_mb: 676.426 610MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 53.298 io_bytes/op: 8128.98 miss_ratio: 0.0292452 max_rss_mb: 956.273 610MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1301.09 io_bytes/op: 2246.04 miss_ratio: 0.0289171 max_rss_mb: 788.812 The new version is still winning every time, sometimes dramatically so, and we can tell from the maximum resident memory numbers (which contain some noise, by the way) that the new cache is not cheating on memory usage. IMPORTANT: The previous generation experimental clock cache appears to hit a serious bottleneck in the higher thread count configurations, presumably due to some of its waiting functionality. (The same bottleneck is not seen with partitioned index+filters.) Now we consider even smaller cache sizes, with higher miss ratios, eviction work, etc. 233MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 10.557 io_bytes/op: 227040 miss_ratio: 0.0403105 max_rss_mb: 247.371 233MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 15.348 io_bytes/op: 112007 miss_ratio: 0.0372238 max_rss_mb: 245.293 233MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 6.365 io_bytes/op: 244854 miss_ratio: 0.0413873 max_rss_mb: 259.844 233MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 47.501 io_bytes/op: 2591.93 miss_ratio: 0.0330989 max_rss_mb: 242.461 233MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 96.498 io_bytes/op: 363379 miss_ratio: 0.0459966 max_rss_mb: 479.227 233MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 109.95 io_bytes/op: 314799 miss_ratio: 0.0450032 max_rss_mb: 400.738 233MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 2.353 io_bytes/op: 385397 miss_ratio: 0.048445 max_rss_mb: 500.688 233MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1088.95 io_bytes/op: 2567.02 miss_ratio: 0.0330593 max_rss_mb: 303.402 233MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 84.302 io_bytes/op: 378020 miss_ratio: 0.0466558 max_rss_mb: 1051.84 233MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 89.921 io_bytes/op: 338242 miss_ratio: 0.0460309 max_rss_mb: 812.785 233MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 2.588 io_bytes/op: 462833 miss_ratio: 0.0509158 max_rss_mb: 1109.94 233MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1299.26 io_bytes/op: 2565.94 miss_ratio: 0.0330531 max_rss_mb: 361.016 89MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 0.574 io_bytes/op: 5.35977e+06 miss_ratio: 0.274427 max_rss_mb: 91.3086 89MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 0.578 io_bytes/op: 5.16549e+06 miss_ratio: 0.27276 max_rss_mb: 96.8984 89MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 0.512 io_bytes/op: 4.13111e+06 miss_ratio: 0.242817 max_rss_mb: 119.441 89MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 48.172 io_bytes/op: 2709.76 miss_ratio: 0.0346162 max_rss_mb: 100.754 89MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 5.779 io_bytes/op: 6.14192e+06 miss_ratio: 0.320399 max_rss_mb: 311.812 89MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 5.601 io_bytes/op: 5.83838e+06 miss_ratio: 0.313123 max_rss_mb: 252.418 89MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 0.77 io_bytes/op: 3.99236e+06 miss_ratio: 0.236296 max_rss_mb: 396.422 89MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1064.97 io_bytes/op: 2687.23 miss_ratio: 0.0346134 max_rss_mb: 155.293 89MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 4.959 io_bytes/op: 6.20297e+06 miss_ratio: 0.323945 max_rss_mb: 823.43 89MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 4.962 io_bytes/op: 5.9601e+06 miss_ratio: 0.319857 max_rss_mb: 626.824 89MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 1.009 io_bytes/op: 4.1083e+06 miss_ratio: 0.242512 max_rss_mb: 1095.32 89MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1224.39 io_bytes/op: 2688.2 miss_ratio: 0.0346207 max_rss_mb: 218.223 ^ Now something interesting has happened: the new clock cache has gained a dramatic lead in the single-threaded case, and this is because the cache is so small, and full filters are so big, that dividing the cache into 64 shards leads to significant (random) imbalances in cache shards and excessive churn in imbalanced shards. This new clock cache only uses two shards for this configuration, and that helps to ensure that entries are part of a sufficiently big pool that their eviction order resembles the single-shard order.

Revamp, optimize new experimental clock cache (#10626) Summary: * Consolidates most metadata into a single word per slot so that more can be accomplished with a single atomic update. In the common case, Lookup was previously about 4 atomic updates, now just 1 atomic update. Common case Release was previously 1 atomic read + 1 atomic update, now just 1 atomic update. * Eliminate spins / waits / yields, which likely threaten some "lock free" benefits. Compare-exchange loops are only used in explicit Erase, and strict_capacity_limit=true Insert. Eviction uses opportunistic compare- exchange. * Relaxes some aggressiveness and guarantees. For example, * Duplicate Inserts will sometimes go undetected and the shadow duplicate will age out with eviction. * In many cases, the older Inserted value for a given cache key will be kept (i.e. Insert does not support overwrite). * Entries explicitly erased (rather than evicted) might not be freed immediately in some rare cases. * With strict_capacity_limit=false, capacity limit is not tracked/enforced as precisely as LRUCache, but is self-correcting and should only deviate by a very small number of extra or fewer entries. * Use smaller "computed default" number of cache shards in many cases, because benefits to larger usage tracking / eviction pools outweigh the small cost of more lock-free atomic contention. The improvement in CPU and I/O is dramatic in some limit-memory cases. * Even without the sharding change, the eviction algorithm is likely more effective than LRU overall because it's more stateful, even though the "hot path" state tracking for it is essentially free with ref counting. It is like a generalized CLOCK with aging (see code comments). I don't have performance numbers showing a specific improvement, but in theory, for a Poisson access pattern to each block, keeping some state allows better estimation of time to next access (Poisson interval) than strict LRU. The bounded randomness in CLOCK can also reduce "cliff" effect for repeated range scans approaching and exceeding cache size. ## Hot path algorithm comparison Rough descriptions, focusing on number and kind of atomic operations: * Old `Lookup()` (2-5 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment internal ref count at slot If possible hit: Check flags atomic (and non-atomic fields) If cache hit: Three distinct updates to 'flags' atomic Increment refs for internal-to-external Return Decrement internal ref count while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * New `Lookup()` (1-2 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment acquire counter in meta word (optimistic) If visible entry (already read meta word): If match (read non-atomic fields): Return Else: Decrement acquire counter in meta word Else if invisible entry (rare, already read meta word): Decrement acquire counter in meta word while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * Old `Release()` (1 atomic update, conditional on atomic read, rarely more): ``` Read atomic ref count If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return Else: Decrement ref count ``` * New `Release()` (1 unconditional atomic update, rarely more): ``` Increment release counter in meta word If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return ``` ## Performance test setup Build DB with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` Test with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=${CACHE_MB}000000 -duration 60 -threads=$THREADS -statistics ``` Numbers on a single socket Skylake Xeon system with 48 hardware threads, DEBUG_LEVEL=0 PORTABLE=0. Very similar story on a dual socket system with 80 hardware threads. Using (every 2nd) Fibonacci MB cache sizes to sample the territory between powers of two. Configurations: base: LRUCache before this change, but with db_bench change to default cache_numshardbits=-1 (instead of fixed at 6) folly: LRUCache before this change, with folly enabled (distributed mutex) but on an old compiler (sorry) gt_clock: experimental ClockCache before this change new_clock: experimental ClockCache with this change ## Performance test results First test "hot path" read performance, with block cache large enough for whole DB: 4181MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 47.761 4181MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 45.877 4181MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 51.092 4181MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 53.944 4181MB 16thread base -> kops/s: 284.567 4181MB 16thread folly -> kops/s: 249.015 4181MB 16thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 743.762 4181MB 16thread new_clock -> kops/s: 861.821 4181MB 24thread base -> kops/s: 303.415 4181MB 24thread folly -> kops/s: 266.548 4181MB 24thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 975.706 4181MB 24thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1205.64 (~= 24 * 53.944) 4181MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 311.251 4181MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 274.952 4181MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 1045.98 4181MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1370.38 4181MB 48thread base -> kops/s: 310.504 4181MB 48thread folly -> kops/s: 268.322 4181MB 48thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 1195.65 4181MB 48thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1604.85 (~= 24 * 1.25 * 53.944) 4181MB 64thread base -> kops/s: 307.839 4181MB 64thread folly -> kops/s: 272.172 4181MB 64thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 1204.47 4181MB 64thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1615.37 4181MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 310.934 4181MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 267.468 4181MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 1188.75 4181MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1595.46 Whether we have just one thread on a quiet system or an overload of threads, the new version wins every time in thousand-ops per second, sometimes dramatically so. Mutex-based implementation quickly becomes contention-limited. New clock cache shows essentially perfect scaling up to number of physical cores (24), and then each hyperthreaded core adding about 1/4 the throughput of an additional physical core (see 48 thread case). Block cache miss rates (omitted above) are negligible across the board. With partitioned instead of full filters, the maximum speed-up vs. base is more like 2.5x rather than 5x. Now test a large block cache with low miss ratio, but some eviction is required: 1597MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 46.603 io_bytes/op: 1584.63 miss_ratio: 0.0201066 max_rss_mb: 1589.23 1597MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 45.079 io_bytes/op: 1530.03 miss_ratio: 0.019872 max_rss_mb: 1550.43 1597MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 48.711 io_bytes/op: 1566.63 miss_ratio: 0.0198923 max_rss_mb: 1691.4 1597MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 51.531 io_bytes/op: 1589.07 miss_ratio: 0.0201969 max_rss_mb: 1583.56 1597MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 301.174 io_bytes/op: 1439.52 miss_ratio: 0.0184218 max_rss_mb: 1656.59 1597MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 273.09 io_bytes/op: 1375.12 miss_ratio: 0.0180002 max_rss_mb: 1586.8 1597MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 904.497 io_bytes/op: 1411.29 miss_ratio: 0.0179934 max_rss_mb: 1775.89 1597MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1182.59 io_bytes/op: 1440.77 miss_ratio: 0.0185449 max_rss_mb: 1636.45 1597MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 309.91 io_bytes/op: 1438.25 miss_ratio: 0.018399 max_rss_mb: 1689.98 1597MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 267.605 io_bytes/op: 1394.16 miss_ratio: 0.0180286 max_rss_mb: 1631.91 1597MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 691.518 io_bytes/op: 9056.73 miss_ratio: 0.0186572 max_rss_mb: 1982.26 1597MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1406.12 io_bytes/op: 1440.82 miss_ratio: 0.0185463 max_rss_mb: 1685.63 610MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 45.511 io_bytes/op: 2279.61 miss_ratio: 0.0290528 max_rss_mb: 615.137 610MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 43.386 io_bytes/op: 2217.29 miss_ratio: 0.0289282 max_rss_mb: 600.996 610MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 46.207 io_bytes/op: 2275.51 miss_ratio: 0.0290057 max_rss_mb: 637.934 610MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 48.879 io_bytes/op: 2283.1 miss_ratio: 0.0291253 max_rss_mb: 613.5 610MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 306.59 io_bytes/op: 2250 miss_ratio: 0.0288721 max_rss_mb: 683.402 610MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 269.176 io_bytes/op: 2187.86 miss_ratio: 0.0286938 max_rss_mb: 628.742 610MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 855.097 io_bytes/op: 2279.26 miss_ratio: 0.0288009 max_rss_mb: 733.062 610MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1121.47 io_bytes/op: 2244.29 miss_ratio: 0.0289046 max_rss_mb: 666.453 610MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 305.079 io_bytes/op: 2252.43 miss_ratio: 0.0288884 max_rss_mb: 723.457 610MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 269.583 io_bytes/op: 2204.58 miss_ratio: 0.0287001 max_rss_mb: 676.426 610MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 53.298 io_bytes/op: 8128.98 miss_ratio: 0.0292452 max_rss_mb: 956.273 610MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1301.09 io_bytes/op: 2246.04 miss_ratio: 0.0289171 max_rss_mb: 788.812 The new version is still winning every time, sometimes dramatically so, and we can tell from the maximum resident memory numbers (which contain some noise, by the way) that the new cache is not cheating on memory usage. IMPORTANT: The previous generation experimental clock cache appears to hit a serious bottleneck in the higher thread count configurations, presumably due to some of its waiting functionality. (The same bottleneck is not seen with partitioned index+filters.) Now we consider even smaller cache sizes, with higher miss ratios, eviction work, etc. 233MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 10.557 io_bytes/op: 227040 miss_ratio: 0.0403105 max_rss_mb: 247.371 233MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 15.348 io_bytes/op: 112007 miss_ratio: 0.0372238 max_rss_mb: 245.293 233MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 6.365 io_bytes/op: 244854 miss_ratio: 0.0413873 max_rss_mb: 259.844 233MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 47.501 io_bytes/op: 2591.93 miss_ratio: 0.0330989 max_rss_mb: 242.461 233MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 96.498 io_bytes/op: 363379 miss_ratio: 0.0459966 max_rss_mb: 479.227 233MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 109.95 io_bytes/op: 314799 miss_ratio: 0.0450032 max_rss_mb: 400.738 233MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 2.353 io_bytes/op: 385397 miss_ratio: 0.048445 max_rss_mb: 500.688 233MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1088.95 io_bytes/op: 2567.02 miss_ratio: 0.0330593 max_rss_mb: 303.402 233MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 84.302 io_bytes/op: 378020 miss_ratio: 0.0466558 max_rss_mb: 1051.84 233MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 89.921 io_bytes/op: 338242 miss_ratio: 0.0460309 max_rss_mb: 812.785 233MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 2.588 io_bytes/op: 462833 miss_ratio: 0.0509158 max_rss_mb: 1109.94 233MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1299.26 io_bytes/op: 2565.94 miss_ratio: 0.0330531 max_rss_mb: 361.016 89MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 0.574 io_bytes/op: 5.35977e+06 miss_ratio: 0.274427 max_rss_mb: 91.3086 89MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 0.578 io_bytes/op: 5.16549e+06 miss_ratio: 0.27276 max_rss_mb: 96.8984 89MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 0.512 io_bytes/op: 4.13111e+06 miss_ratio: 0.242817 max_rss_mb: 119.441 89MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 48.172 io_bytes/op: 2709.76 miss_ratio: 0.0346162 max_rss_mb: 100.754 89MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 5.779 io_bytes/op: 6.14192e+06 miss_ratio: 0.320399 max_rss_mb: 311.812 89MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 5.601 io_bytes/op: 5.83838e+06 miss_ratio: 0.313123 max_rss_mb: 252.418 89MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 0.77 io_bytes/op: 3.99236e+06 miss_ratio: 0.236296 max_rss_mb: 396.422 89MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1064.97 io_bytes/op: 2687.23 miss_ratio: 0.0346134 max_rss_mb: 155.293 89MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 4.959 io_bytes/op: 6.20297e+06 miss_ratio: 0.323945 max_rss_mb: 823.43 89MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 4.962 io_bytes/op: 5.9601e+06 miss_ratio: 0.319857 max_rss_mb: 626.824 89MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 1.009 io_bytes/op: 4.1083e+06 miss_ratio: 0.242512 max_rss_mb: 1095.32 89MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1224.39 io_bytes/op: 2688.2 miss_ratio: 0.0346207 max_rss_mb: 218.223 ^ Now something interesting has happened: the new clock cache has gained a dramatic lead in the single-threaded case, and this is because the cache is so small, and full filters are so big, that dividing the cache into 64 shards leads to significant (random) imbalances in cache shards and excessive churn in imbalanced shards. This new clock cache only uses two shards for this configuration, and that helps to ensure that entries are part of a sufficiently big pool that their eviction order resembles the single-shard order.

Revamp, optimize new experimental clock cache (#10626) Summary: * Consolidates most metadata into a single word per slot so that more can be accomplished with a single atomic update. In the common case, Lookup was previously about 4 atomic updates, now just 1 atomic update. Common case Release was previously 1 atomic read + 1 atomic update, now just 1 atomic update. * Eliminate spins / waits / yields, which likely threaten some "lock free" benefits. Compare-exchange loops are only used in explicit Erase, and strict_capacity_limit=true Insert. Eviction uses opportunistic compare- exchange. * Relaxes some aggressiveness and guarantees. For example, * Duplicate Inserts will sometimes go undetected and the shadow duplicate will age out with eviction. * In many cases, the older Inserted value for a given cache key will be kept (i.e. Insert does not support overwrite). * Entries explicitly erased (rather than evicted) might not be freed immediately in some rare cases. * With strict_capacity_limit=false, capacity limit is not tracked/enforced as precisely as LRUCache, but is self-correcting and should only deviate by a very small number of extra or fewer entries. * Use smaller "computed default" number of cache shards in many cases, because benefits to larger usage tracking / eviction pools outweigh the small cost of more lock-free atomic contention. The improvement in CPU and I/O is dramatic in some limit-memory cases. * Even without the sharding change, the eviction algorithm is likely more effective than LRU overall because it's more stateful, even though the "hot path" state tracking for it is essentially free with ref counting. It is like a generalized CLOCK with aging (see code comments). I don't have performance numbers showing a specific improvement, but in theory, for a Poisson access pattern to each block, keeping some state allows better estimation of time to next access (Poisson interval) than strict LRU. The bounded randomness in CLOCK can also reduce "cliff" effect for repeated range scans approaching and exceeding cache size. ## Hot path algorithm comparison Rough descriptions, focusing on number and kind of atomic operations: * Old `Lookup()` (2-5 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment internal ref count at slot If possible hit: Check flags atomic (and non-atomic fields) If cache hit: Three distinct updates to 'flags' atomic Increment refs for internal-to-external Return Decrement internal ref count while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * New `Lookup()` (1-2 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment acquire counter in meta word (optimistic) If visible entry (already read meta word): If match (read non-atomic fields): Return Else: Decrement acquire counter in meta word Else if invisible entry (rare, already read meta word): Decrement acquire counter in meta word while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * Old `Release()` (1 atomic update, conditional on atomic read, rarely more): ``` Read atomic ref count If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return Else: Decrement ref count ``` * New `Release()` (1 unconditional atomic update, rarely more): ``` Increment release counter in meta word If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return ``` ## Performance test setup Build DB with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` Test with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=${CACHE_MB}000000 -duration 60 -threads=$THREADS -statistics ``` Numbers on a single socket Skylake Xeon system with 48 hardware threads, DEBUG_LEVEL=0 PORTABLE=0. Very similar story on a dual socket system with 80 hardware threads. Using (every 2nd) Fibonacci MB cache sizes to sample the territory between powers of two.

Mutex-based implementation quickly becomes contention-limited. New clock cache shows essentially perfect scaling up to number of physical cores (24), and then each hyperthreaded core adding about 1/4 the throughput of an additional physical core (see 48 thread case). Block cache miss rates (omitted above) are negligible across the board. With partitioned instead of full filters, the maximum speed-up vs. base is more like 2.5x rather than 5x. Now test a large block cache with low miss ratio, but some eviction is required: 1597MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 46.603 io_bytes/op: 1584.63 miss_ratio: 0.0201066 max_rss_mb: 1589.23 1597MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 45.079 io_bytes/op: 1530.03 miss_ratio: 0.019872 max_rss_mb: 1550.43 1597MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 48.711 io_bytes/op: 1566.63 miss_ratio: 0.0198923 max_rss_mb: 1691.4 1597MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 51.531 io_bytes/op: 1589.07 miss_ratio: 0.0201969 max_rss_mb: 1583.56 1597MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 301.174 io_bytes/op: 1439.52 miss_ratio: 0.0184218 max_rss_mb: 1656.59 1597MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 273.09 io_bytes/op: 1375.12 miss_ratio: 0.0180002 max_rss_mb: 1586.8 1597MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 904.497 io_bytes/op: 1411.29 miss_ratio: 0.0179934 max_rss_mb: 1775.89 1597MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1182.59 io_bytes/op: 1440.77 miss_ratio: 0.0185449 max_rss_mb: 1636.45 1597MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 309.91 io_bytes/op: 1438.25 miss_ratio: 0.018399 max_rss_mb: 1689.98 1597MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 267.605 io_bytes/op: 1394.16 miss_ratio: 0.0180286 max_rss_mb: 1631.91 1597MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 691.518 io_bytes/op: 9056.73 miss_ratio: 0.0186572 max_rss_mb: 1982.26 1597MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1406.12 io_bytes/op: 1440.82 miss_ratio: 0.0185463 max_rss_mb: 1685.63 610MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 45.511 io_bytes/op: 2279.61 miss_ratio: 0.0290528 max_rss_mb: 615.137 610MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 43.386 io_bytes/op: 2217.29 miss_ratio: 0.0289282 max_rss_mb: 600.996 610MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 46.207 io_bytes/op: 2275.51 miss_ratio: 0.0290057 max_rss_mb: 637.934 610MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 48.879 io_bytes/op: 2283.1 miss_ratio: 0.0291253 max_rss_mb: 613.5 610MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 306.59 io_bytes/op: 2250 miss_ratio: 0.0288721 max_rss_mb: 683.402 610MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 269.176 io_bytes/op: 2187.86 miss_ratio: 0.0286938 max_rss_mb: 628.742 610MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 855.097 io_bytes/op: 2279.26 miss_ratio: 0.0288009 max_rss_mb: 733.062 610MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1121.47 io_bytes/op: 2244.29 miss_ratio: 0.0289046 max_rss_mb: 666.453 610MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 305.079 io_bytes/op: 2252.43 miss_ratio: 0.0288884 max_rss_mb: 723.457 610MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 269.583 io_bytes/op: 2204.58 miss_ratio: 0.0287001 max_rss_mb: 676.426 610MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 53.298 io_bytes/op: 8128.98 miss_ratio: 0.0292452 max_rss_mb: 956.273 610MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1301.09 io_bytes/op: 2246.04 miss_ratio: 0.0289171 max_rss_mb: 788.812 The new version is still winning every time, sometimes dramatically so, and we can tell from the maximum resident memory numbers (which contain some noise, by the way) that the new cache is not cheating on memory usage. IMPORTANT: The previous generation experimental clock cache appears to hit a serious bottleneck in the higher thread count configurations, presumably due to some of its waiting functionality. (The same bottleneck is not seen with partitioned index+filters.)

// Insert
// ------
// If Insert were to guarantee replacing an existing entry for a key, there
// would be complications for concurrency and efficiency. First, consider how
// many probes to get to an entry. To ensure Lookup never waits and
// availability of a key is uninterrupted, we would need to use a different
// slot for a new entry for the same key. This means it is most likely in a
// later probing position than the old version, which should soon be removed.
// (Also, an entry is too big to replace atomically, even if no current refs.)
//
Revamp, optimize new experimental clock cache (#10626) Summary: * Consolidates most metadata into a single word per slot so that more can be accomplished with a single atomic update. In the common case, Lookup was previously about 4 atomic updates, now just 1 atomic update. Common case Release was previously 1 atomic read + 1 atomic update, now just 1 atomic update. * Eliminate spins / waits / yields, which likely threaten some "lock free" benefits. Compare-exchange loops are only used in explicit Erase, and strict_capacity_limit=true Insert. Eviction uses opportunistic compare- exchange. * Relaxes some aggressiveness and guarantees. For example, * Duplicate Inserts will sometimes go undetected and the shadow duplicate will age out with eviction. * In many cases, the older Inserted value for a given cache key will be kept (i.e. Insert does not support overwrite). * Entries explicitly erased (rather than evicted) might not be freed immediately in some rare cases. * With strict_capacity_limit=false, capacity limit is not tracked/enforced as precisely as LRUCache, but is self-correcting and should only deviate by a very small number of extra or fewer entries. * Use smaller "computed default" number of cache shards in many cases, because benefits to larger usage tracking / eviction pools outweigh the small cost of more lock-free atomic contention. The improvement in CPU and I/O is dramatic in some limit-memory cases. * Even without the sharding change, the eviction algorithm is likely more effective than LRU overall because it's more stateful, even though the "hot path" state tracking for it is essentially free with ref counting. It is like a generalized CLOCK with aging (see code comments). I don't have performance numbers showing a specific improvement, but in theory, for a Poisson access pattern to each block, keeping some state allows better estimation of time to next access (Poisson interval) than strict LRU. The bounded randomness in CLOCK can also reduce "cliff" effect for repeated range scans approaching and exceeding cache size. ## Hot path algorithm comparison Rough descriptions, focusing on number and kind of atomic operations: * Old `Lookup()` (2-5 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment internal ref count at slot If possible hit: Check flags atomic (and non-atomic fields) If cache hit: Three distinct updates to 'flags' atomic Increment refs for internal-to-external Return Decrement internal ref count while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * New `Lookup()` (1-2 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment acquire counter in meta word (optimistic) If visible entry (already read meta word): If match (read non-atomic fields): Return Else: Decrement acquire counter in meta word Else if invisible entry (rare, already read meta word): Decrement acquire counter in meta word while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * Old `Release()` (1 atomic update, conditional on atomic read, rarely more): ``` Read atomic ref count If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return Else: Decrement ref count ``` * New `Release()` (1 unconditional atomic update, rarely more): ``` Increment release counter in meta word If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return ``` ## Performance test setup Build DB with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` Test with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=${CACHE_MB}000000 -duration 60 -threads=$THREADS -statistics ``` Numbers on a single socket Skylake Xeon system with 48 hardware threads, DEBUG_LEVEL=0 PORTABLE=0. Very similar story on a dual socket system with 80 hardware threads. Using (every 2nd) Fibonacci MB cache sizes to sample the territory between powers of two.

Mutex-based implementation quickly becomes contention-limited. New clock cache shows essentially perfect scaling up to number of physical cores (24), and then each hyperthreaded core adding about 1/4 the throughput of an additional physical core (see 48 thread case). Block cache miss rates (omitted above) are negligible across the board. With partitioned instead of full filters, the maximum speed-up vs. base is more like 2.5x rather than 5x. Now test a large block cache with low miss ratio, but some eviction is required: 1597MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 46.603 io_bytes/op: 1584.63 miss_ratio: 0.0201066 max_rss_mb: 1589.23 1597MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 45.079 io_bytes/op: 1530.03 miss_ratio: 0.019872 max_rss_mb: 1550.43 1597MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 48.711 io_bytes/op: 1566.63 miss_ratio: 0.0198923 max_rss_mb: 1691.4 1597MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 51.531 io_bytes/op: 1589.07 miss_ratio: 0.0201969 max_rss_mb: 1583.56 1597MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 301.174 io_bytes/op: 1439.52 miss_ratio: 0.0184218 max_rss_mb: 1656.59 1597MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 273.09 io_bytes/op: 1375.12 miss_ratio: 0.0180002 max_rss_mb: 1586.8 1597MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 904.497 io_bytes/op: 1411.29 miss_ratio: 0.0179934 max_rss_mb: 1775.89 1597MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1182.59 io_bytes/op: 1440.77 miss_ratio: 0.0185449 max_rss_mb: 1636.45 1597MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 309.91 io_bytes/op: 1438.25 miss_ratio: 0.018399 max_rss_mb: 1689.98 1597MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 267.605 io_bytes/op: 1394.16 miss_ratio: 0.0180286 max_rss_mb: 1631.91 1597MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 691.518 io_bytes/op: 9056.73 miss_ratio: 0.0186572 max_rss_mb: 1982.26 1597MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1406.12 io_bytes/op: 1440.82 miss_ratio: 0.0185463 max_rss_mb: 1685.63 610MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 45.511 io_bytes/op: 2279.61 miss_ratio: 0.0290528 max_rss_mb: 615.137 610MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 43.386 io_bytes/op: 2217.29 miss_ratio: 0.0289282 max_rss_mb: 600.996 610MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 46.207 io_bytes/op: 2275.51 miss_ratio: 0.0290057 max_rss_mb: 637.934 610MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 48.879 io_bytes/op: 2283.1 miss_ratio: 0.0291253 max_rss_mb: 613.5 610MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 306.59 io_bytes/op: 2250 miss_ratio: 0.0288721 max_rss_mb: 683.402 610MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 269.176 io_bytes/op: 2187.86 miss_ratio: 0.0286938 max_rss_mb: 628.742 610MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 855.097 io_bytes/op: 2279.26 miss_ratio: 0.0288009 max_rss_mb: 733.062 610MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1121.47 io_bytes/op: 2244.29 miss_ratio: 0.0289046 max_rss_mb: 666.453 610MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 305.079 io_bytes/op: 2252.43 miss_ratio: 0.0288884 max_rss_mb: 723.457 610MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 269.583 io_bytes/op: 2204.58 miss_ratio: 0.0287001 max_rss_mb: 676.426 610MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 53.298 io_bytes/op: 8128.98 miss_ratio: 0.0292452 max_rss_mb: 956.273 610MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1301.09 io_bytes/op: 2246.04 miss_ratio: 0.0289171 max_rss_mb: 788.812 The new version is still winning every time, sometimes dramatically so, and we can tell from the maximum resident memory numbers (which contain some noise, by the way) that the new cache is not cheating on memory usage. IMPORTANT: The previous generation experimental clock cache appears to hit a serious bottleneck in the higher thread count configurations, presumably due to some of its waiting functionality. (The same bottleneck is not seen with partitioned index+filters.)

This new clock cache only uses two shards for this configuration, and that helps to ensure that entries are part of a sufficiently big pool that their eviction order resembles the single-shard order.

Automatic table sizing for HyperClockCache (AutoHCC) (#11738) Summary: This change add an experimental next-generation HyperClockCache (HCC) with automatic sizing of the underlying hash table. Both the existing version (stable) and the new version (experimental for now) of HCC are available depending on whether an estimated average entry charge is provided in HyperClockCacheOptions. Internally, we call the two implementations AutoHyperClockCache (new) and FixedHyperClockCache (existing). The performance characteristics and much of the underlying logic are similar enough that AutoHCC is likely to make FixedHCC obsolete, and so it's best considered an evolution of the same technology or solution rather than an alternative. More specifically, both implementations share essentially the same logic for managing the state of individual entries in the cache, including metadata for reference counting and counting clocks for eviction. This metadata, which I like to call the "low-level HCC protocol," includes a read-write lock on entries, but relaxed consistency requirements on the cache (e.g. allowing rare duplication) means high-level cache operations never wait for these low-level per-entry locks. FixedHCC is fully wait-free. AutoHCC is different in how entries are indexed into an efficient hash table. AutoHCC is "essentially wait-free" as there is no pattern of typical high-level operations on a large cache that can lead to one thread waiting on another to complete some work, though it can happen in some unusual/unlucky cases, or atypical uses such as erasing specific cache keys. Table growth and entry reclamation is more complex in AutoHCC compared to FixedHCC, so uses some localized locking to manage that. AutoHCC uses linear hashing to grow the table as needed, with low latency and to a precise size. AutoHCC depends on anonymous mmap support from the OS (currently verified working on Linux, MacOS, and Windows) to allow the array underlying a hash table to grow in place without wasting resident memory on space reserved but unused. AutoHCC uses a form of chaining while FixedHCC uses open addressing and double hashing. More specifics: * In developing this PR, a rare availability bug (minor) was noticed in the existing HCC implementation of Release()+erase_if_last_ref, which is now inherited into AutoHCC. Fixing this without a performance regression will not be simple, so is left for follow-up work. * Some existing unit tests required adjustment of operational parameters or conditions to work with the new behaviors of AutoHCC. A number of bugs were found and fixed in the validation process, including getting unit tests in good working order. * Added an option to cache_bench, `-degenerate_hash_bits` for correctness stress testing described below. For this, the tool uses the reverse-engineered hash function for HCC to generate keys in which the specified number of hash bits, in critical positions, have a fixed value. Essentially each degenerate hash bit will half the number of chain heads utilized and double the average chain length. Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/11738 Test Plan: unit tests updated, and already added to db crash test. Also ## Correctness The code includes generous assertions to check for unexpected states, especially at destruction time, so should be able to detect critical concurrency bugs. Less serious "availability bugs" in which cache data is hidden or cleanly lost are more difficult to detect, but also less scary for data correctness (as long as performance is good and the design is sound). In average operation, the structure is extremely low stress and low contention (see next section) so stressing the corner case logic requires artificially stressing the operating conditions. First, we keep the structure small to increase the number of threads hitting the same chain or entry, and just one cache shard. Second, we artificially degrade the hashing so that chains are much longer than typical, using the new `-degenerate_hash_bits` option to cache_bench. Third, we re-create the structure from scratch frequently in order to exercise the Grow logic repeatedly and to get the benefit of the consistency checks in the structure's destructor in debug builds. For cache_bench this also means disabling the single-threaded "populate cache" step (normally used for steady state performance testing). And of course use many more threads than cores to have many preemptions. An effective test for working out bugs was this (using debug build of course): ``` while ./cache_bench -cache_type=auto_hyper_clock_cache -histograms=0 -cache_size=8000000 -threads=100 -populate_cache=0 -ops_per_thread=10000 -degenerate_hash_bits=6 -num_shard_bits=0; do :; done ``` Or even smaller cases. This setup has around 27 utilized chains, with around 35 entries each, and yield-waits more than 1 million times per second (very high contention; see next section). I have let this run for hours searching for any lingering issues. I've also run cache_bench under ASAN, UBSAN, and TSAN. ## Essentially wait free There is a counter for number of yield() calls when one thread is waiting on another. When we pre-populate the structure in a single thread, ``` ./cache_bench -cache_type=auto_hyper_clock_cache -histograms=0 -populate_cache=1 -ops_per_thread=200000 2>&1 | grep Yield ``` We see something on the order of 1 yield call per second across 16 threads, even when we load the system other other jobs (parallel compilation). With -populate_cache=0, there are more yield opportunities with parallel table growth. On an otherwise unloaded system, we still see very small (single digit) yield counts, with a chance of getting into the thousands, and getting into 10s of thousands per second during table growth phase if the system is loaded with other jobs. However, I am not worried about this if performance is still good (see next section). ## Overall performance Although cache_bench initially suggested performance very close to FixedHCC, there was a very noticeable performance hit under a db_bench setup like used in validating https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/10626. Much of the difference has been reduced by optimizing Lookup with a "naive" pass that will almost always find entries quickly, and only falling back to the careful Lookup algorithm when not found in the first pass. Setups (chosen to be sensitive to block cache performance), and compiled with USE_CLANG=1 JEMALLOC=1 PORTABLE=0 DEBUG_LEVEL=0: ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm base/db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` ### No regression on FixedHCC Running before & after builds at the same time on a 48 core machine. ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm /usr/bin/time ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom[-X10],block_cache_entry_stats,cache_report_problems -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=610000000 -duration 20 -threads=24 -cache_type=fixed_hyper_clock_cache -seed=1234 ``` Before: readrandom [AVG 10 runs] : 847234 (± 8150) ops/sec; 59.2 (± 0.6) MB/sec 703MB max RSS After: readrandom [AVG 10 runs] : 851021 (± 7929) ops/sec; 59.5 (± 0.6) MB/sec 706MB max RSS Probably no material difference. ### Single-threaded performance Using `[-X2]` and `-threads=1` and `-duration=30`, running all three at the same time: lru_cache: 55100 ops/sec, then 55862 ops/sec (627MB max RSS) fixed_hyper_clock_cache: 60496 ops/sec, then 61231 ops/sec (626MB max RSS) auto_hyper_clock_cache: 47560 ops/sec, then 56081 ops/sec (626MB max RSS) So AutoHCC has more ramp-up cost in the first pass as the cache grows to the appropriate size. (In single-threaded operation, the parallelizability and per-op low latency of table growth is overall slower.) However, once up to size, its performance is comparable to LRUCache. FixedHCC's lean operations still win overall when a good estimate is available. If we look at HCC table stats, we can see that this configuration is not favorable to AutoHCC (and I have verified that other memory sizes do not yield substantially different results, until shards are under-sized for the full filters): FixedHCC: Slot occupancy stats: Overall 47% (124991/262144), Min/Max/Window = 28%/64%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 17/22 AutoHCC: Slot occupancy stats: Overall 59% (125781/209682), Min/Max/Window = 43%/82%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 76/16 Head occupancy stats: Overall 43% (92259/209682), Min/Max/Window = 24%/74%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 19/26 Entries at home count: 53350 FixedHCC configuration is relatively good for speed, and not ideal for space utilization. As is typical, AutoHCC has tighter control on metadata usage (209682 x 64 bytes rather than 262144 x 64 bytes), and the higher load factor is slightly worse for speed. LRUCache also has more metadata usage, at 199680 x 96 bytes of tracked metadata (plus roughly another 10% of that untracked in the head pointers), and that metadata is subject to fragmentation. ### Parallel performance, high hit rate Now using `[-X10]` and `-threads=10`, all three at the same time lru_cache: [AVG 10 runs] : 263629 (± 1425) ops/sec; 18.4 (± 0.1) MB/sec 655MB max RSS, 97.1% cache hit rate fixed_hyper_clock_cache: [AVG 10 runs] : 479590 (± 8114) ops/sec; 33.5 (± 0.6) MB/sec 651MB max RSS, 97.1% cache hit rate auto_hyper_clock_cache: [AVG 10 runs] : 418687 (± 5915) ops/sec; 29.3 (± 0.4) MB/sec 657MB max RSS, 97.1% cache hit rate Even with just 10-way parallelism for each cache (though 30+/48 cores busy overall), LRUCache is already showing performance degradation, while AutoHCC is in the neighborhood of FixedHCC. And that brings us to the question of how AutoHCC holds up under extreme parallelism, so now independent runs with `-threads=100` (overloading 48 cores). lru_cache: 438613 ops/sec, 827MB max RSS fixed_hyper_clock_cache: 1651310 ops/sec, 812MB max RSS auto_hyper_clock_cache: 1505875 ops/sec, 821MB max RSS (Yield count: 1089 over 30s) Clearly, AutoHCC holds up extremely well under extreme parallelism, even closing some of the modest performance gap with FixedHCC. ### Parallel performance, low hit rate To get down to roughly 50% cache hit rate, we use `-cache_index_and_filter_blocks=0 -cache_size=1650000000` with `-threads=10`. Here the extra cost of running counting clock eviction, especially on the chains of AutoHCC, are evident, especially with the lower contention of cache_index_and_filter_blocks=0: lru_cache: 725231 ops/sec, 1770MB max RSS, 51.3% hit rate fixed_hyper_clock_cache: 638620 ops/sec, 1765MB max RSS, 50.2% hit rate auto_hyper_clock_cache: 541018 ops/sec, 1777MB max RSS, 50.8% hit rate Reviewed By: jowlyzhang Differential Revision: D48784755 Pulled By: pdillinger fbshipit-source-id: e79813dc087474ac427637dd282a14fa3011a6e4

// FixedHyperClockCache: Instead we Insert as soon as we find an empty slot in
// the probing sequence without seeing an existing (visible) entry for the same
// key. This way we only insert if we can improve the probing performance, and
// we don't need to probe beyond our insert position, assuming we are willing
// to let the previous entry for the same key die of old age (eventual eviction
// from not being used). We can reach a similar state with concurrent
// insertions, where one will pass over the other while it is "under
// construction." This temporary duplication is acceptable for RocksDB block
// cache because we know redundant insertion is rare.
// AutoHyperClockCache: Similar, except we only notice and return an existing
// match if it is found in the search for a suitable empty slot (starting with
// the same slot as the head pointer), not by following the existing chain of
// entries. Insertions are always made to the head of the chain.

Revamp, optimize new experimental clock cache (#10626) Summary: * Consolidates most metadata into a single word per slot so that more can be accomplished with a single atomic update. In the common case, Lookup was previously about 4 atomic updates, now just 1 atomic update. Common case Release was previously 1 atomic read + 1 atomic update, now just 1 atomic update. * Eliminate spins / waits / yields, which likely threaten some "lock free" benefits. Compare-exchange loops are only used in explicit Erase, and strict_capacity_limit=true Insert. Eviction uses opportunistic compare- exchange. * Relaxes some aggressiveness and guarantees. For example, * Duplicate Inserts will sometimes go undetected and the shadow duplicate will age out with eviction. * In many cases, the older Inserted value for a given cache key will be kept (i.e. Insert does not support overwrite). * Entries explicitly erased (rather than evicted) might not be freed immediately in some rare cases. * With strict_capacity_limit=false, capacity limit is not tracked/enforced as precisely as LRUCache, but is self-correcting and should only deviate by a very small number of extra or fewer entries. * Use smaller "computed default" number of cache shards in many cases, because benefits to larger usage tracking / eviction pools outweigh the small cost of more lock-free atomic contention. The improvement in CPU and I/O is dramatic in some limit-memory cases. * Even without the sharding change, the eviction algorithm is likely more effective than LRU overall because it's more stateful, even though the "hot path" state tracking for it is essentially free with ref counting. It is like a generalized CLOCK with aging (see code comments). I don't have performance numbers showing a specific improvement, but in theory, for a Poisson access pattern to each block, keeping some state allows better estimation of time to next access (Poisson interval) than strict LRU. The bounded randomness in CLOCK can also reduce "cliff" effect for repeated range scans approaching and exceeding cache size. ## Hot path algorithm comparison Rough descriptions, focusing on number and kind of atomic operations: * Old `Lookup()` (2-5 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment internal ref count at slot If possible hit: Check flags atomic (and non-atomic fields) If cache hit: Three distinct updates to 'flags' atomic Increment refs for internal-to-external Return Decrement internal ref count while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * New `Lookup()` (1-2 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment acquire counter in meta word (optimistic) If visible entry (already read meta word): If match (read non-atomic fields): Return Else: Decrement acquire counter in meta word Else if invisible entry (rare, already read meta word): Decrement acquire counter in meta word while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * Old `Release()` (1 atomic update, conditional on atomic read, rarely more): ``` Read atomic ref count If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return Else: Decrement ref count ``` * New `Release()` (1 unconditional atomic update, rarely more): ``` Increment release counter in meta word If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return ``` ## Performance test setup Build DB with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` Test with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=${CACHE_MB}000000 -duration 60 -threads=$THREADS -statistics ``` Numbers on a single socket Skylake Xeon system with 48 hardware threads, DEBUG_LEVEL=0 PORTABLE=0.

Mutex-based implementation quickly becomes contention-limited. New clock cache shows essentially perfect scaling up to number of physical cores (24), and then each hyperthreaded core adding about 1/4 the throughput of an additional physical core (see 48 thread case). Block cache miss rates (omitted above) are negligible across the board. With partitioned instead of full filters, the maximum speed-up vs. base is more like 2.5x rather than 5x. Now test a large block cache with low miss ratio, but some eviction is required: 1597MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 46.603 io_bytes/op: 1584.63 miss_ratio: 0.0201066 max_rss_mb: 1589.23 1597MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 45.079 io_bytes/op: 1530.03 miss_ratio: 0.019872 max_rss_mb: 1550.43 1597MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 48.711 io_bytes/op: 1566.63 miss_ratio: 0.0198923 max_rss_mb: 1691.4 1597MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 51.531 io_bytes/op: 1589.07 miss_ratio: 0.0201969 max_rss_mb: 1583.56 1597MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 301.174 io_bytes/op: 1439.52 miss_ratio: 0.0184218 max_rss_mb: 1656.59 1597MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 273.09 io_bytes/op: 1375.12 miss_ratio: 0.0180002 max_rss_mb: 1586.8 1597MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 904.497 io_bytes/op: 1411.29 miss_ratio: 0.0179934 max_rss_mb: 1775.89 1597MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1182.59 io_bytes/op: 1440.77 miss_ratio: 0.0185449 max_rss_mb: 1636.45 1597MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 309.91 io_bytes/op: 1438.25 miss_ratio: 0.018399 max_rss_mb: 1689.98 1597MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 267.605 io_bytes/op: 1394.16 miss_ratio: 0.0180286 max_rss_mb: 1631.91 1597MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 691.518 io_bytes/op: 9056.73 miss_ratio: 0.0186572 max_rss_mb: 1982.26 1597MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1406.12 io_bytes/op: 1440.82 miss_ratio: 0.0185463 max_rss_mb: 1685.63 610MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 45.511 io_bytes/op: 2279.61 miss_ratio: 0.0290528 max_rss_mb: 615.137 610MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 43.386 io_bytes/op: 2217.29 miss_ratio: 0.0289282 max_rss_mb: 600.996 610MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 46.207 io_bytes/op: 2275.51 miss_ratio: 0.0290057 max_rss_mb: 637.934 610MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 48.879 io_bytes/op: 2283.1 miss_ratio: 0.0291253 max_rss_mb: 613.5 610MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 306.59 io_bytes/op: 2250 miss_ratio: 0.0288721 max_rss_mb: 683.402 610MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 269.176 io_bytes/op: 2187.86 miss_ratio: 0.0286938 max_rss_mb: 628.742 610MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 855.097 io_bytes/op: 2279.26 miss_ratio: 0.0288009 max_rss_mb: 733.062 610MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1121.47 io_bytes/op: 2244.29 miss_ratio: 0.0289046 max_rss_mb: 666.453 610MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 305.079 io_bytes/op: 2252.43 miss_ratio: 0.0288884 max_rss_mb: 723.457 610MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 269.583 io_bytes/op: 2204.58 miss_ratio: 0.0287001 max_rss_mb: 676.426 610MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 53.298 io_bytes/op: 8128.98 miss_ratio: 0.0292452 max_rss_mb: 956.273 610MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1301.09 io_bytes/op: 2246.04 miss_ratio: 0.0289171 max_rss_mb: 788.812 The new version is still winning every time, sometimes dramatically so, and we can tell from the maximum resident memory numbers (which contain some noise, by the way) that the new cache is not cheating on memory usage.

This new clock cache only uses two shards for this configuration, and that helps to ensure that entries are part of a sufficiently big pool that their eviction order resembles the single-shard order.

// Another problem to solve is what to return to the caller when we find an

Revamp, optimize new experimental clock cache (#10626) Summary: * Consolidates most metadata into a single word per slot so that more can be accomplished with a single atomic update. In the common case, Lookup was previously about 4 atomic updates, now just 1 atomic update. Common case Release was previously 1 atomic read + 1 atomic update, now just 1 atomic update. * Eliminate spins / waits / yields, which likely threaten some "lock free" benefits. Compare-exchange loops are only used in explicit Erase, and strict_capacity_limit=true Insert. Eviction uses opportunistic compare- exchange. * Relaxes some aggressiveness and guarantees. For example, * Duplicate Inserts will sometimes go undetected and the shadow duplicate will age out with eviction. * In many cases, the older Inserted value for a given cache key will be kept (i.e. Insert does not support overwrite). * Entries explicitly erased (rather than evicted) might not be freed immediately in some rare cases. * With strict_capacity_limit=false, capacity limit is not tracked/enforced as precisely as LRUCache, but is self-correcting and should only deviate by a very small number of extra or fewer entries. * Use smaller "computed default" number of cache shards in many cases, because benefits to larger usage tracking / eviction pools outweigh the small cost of more lock-free atomic contention. The improvement in CPU and I/O is dramatic in some limit-memory cases. * Even without the sharding change, the eviction algorithm is likely more effective than LRU overall because it's more stateful, even though the "hot path" state tracking for it is essentially free with ref counting. It is like a generalized CLOCK with aging (see code comments). I don't have performance numbers showing a specific improvement, but in theory, for a Poisson access pattern to each block, keeping some state allows better estimation of time to next access (Poisson interval) than strict LRU. The bounded randomness in CLOCK can also reduce "cliff" effect for repeated range scans approaching and exceeding cache size. ## Hot path algorithm comparison Rough descriptions, focusing on number and kind of atomic operations: * Old `Lookup()` (2-5 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment internal ref count at slot If possible hit: Check flags atomic (and non-atomic fields) If cache hit: Three distinct updates to 'flags' atomic Increment refs for internal-to-external Return Decrement internal ref count while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * New `Lookup()` (1-2 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment acquire counter in meta word (optimistic) If visible entry (already read meta word): If match (read non-atomic fields): Return Else: Decrement acquire counter in meta word Else if invisible entry (rare, already read meta word): Decrement acquire counter in meta word while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * Old `Release()` (1 atomic update, conditional on atomic read, rarely more): ``` Read atomic ref count If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return Else: Decrement ref count ``` * New `Release()` (1 unconditional atomic update, rarely more): ``` Increment release counter in meta word If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return ``` ## Performance test setup Build DB with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` Test with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=${CACHE_MB}000000 -duration 60 -threads=$THREADS -statistics ``` Numbers on a single socket Skylake Xeon system with 48 hardware threads, DEBUG_LEVEL=0 PORTABLE=0.

Mutex-based implementation quickly becomes contention-limited. New clock cache shows essentially perfect scaling up to number of physical cores (24), and then each hyperthreaded core adding about 1/4 the throughput of an additional physical core (see 48 thread case). Block cache miss rates (omitted above) are negligible across the board. With partitioned instead of full filters, the maximum speed-up vs. base is more like 2.5x rather than 5x. Now test a large block cache with low miss ratio, but some eviction is required: 1597MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 46.603 io_bytes/op: 1584.63 miss_ratio: 0.0201066 max_rss_mb: 1589.23 1597MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 45.079 io_bytes/op: 1530.03 miss_ratio: 0.019872 max_rss_mb: 1550.43 1597MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 48.711 io_bytes/op: 1566.63 miss_ratio: 0.0198923 max_rss_mb: 1691.4 1597MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 51.531 io_bytes/op: 1589.07 miss_ratio: 0.0201969 max_rss_mb: 1583.56 1597MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 301.174 io_bytes/op: 1439.52 miss_ratio: 0.0184218 max_rss_mb: 1656.59 1597MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 273.09 io_bytes/op: 1375.12 miss_ratio: 0.0180002 max_rss_mb: 1586.8 1597MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 904.497 io_bytes/op: 1411.29 miss_ratio: 0.0179934 max_rss_mb: 1775.89 1597MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1182.59 io_bytes/op: 1440.77 miss_ratio: 0.0185449 max_rss_mb: 1636.45 1597MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 309.91 io_bytes/op: 1438.25 miss_ratio: 0.018399 max_rss_mb: 1689.98 1597MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 267.605 io_bytes/op: 1394.16 miss_ratio: 0.0180286 max_rss_mb: 1631.91 1597MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 691.518 io_bytes/op: 9056.73 miss_ratio: 0.0186572 max_rss_mb: 1982.26 1597MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1406.12 io_bytes/op: 1440.82 miss_ratio: 0.0185463 max_rss_mb: 1685.63 610MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 45.511 io_bytes/op: 2279.61 miss_ratio: 0.0290528 max_rss_mb: 615.137 610MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 43.386 io_bytes/op: 2217.29 miss_ratio: 0.0289282 max_rss_mb: 600.996 610MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 46.207 io_bytes/op: 2275.51 miss_ratio: 0.0290057 max_rss_mb: 637.934 610MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 48.879 io_bytes/op: 2283.1 miss_ratio: 0.0291253 max_rss_mb: 613.5 610MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 306.59 io_bytes/op: 2250 miss_ratio: 0.0288721 max_rss_mb: 683.402 610MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 269.176 io_bytes/op: 2187.86 miss_ratio: 0.0286938 max_rss_mb: 628.742 610MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 855.097 io_bytes/op: 2279.26 miss_ratio: 0.0288009 max_rss_mb: 733.062 610MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1121.47 io_bytes/op: 2244.29 miss_ratio: 0.0289046 max_rss_mb: 666.453 610MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 305.079 io_bytes/op: 2252.43 miss_ratio: 0.0288884 max_rss_mb: 723.457 610MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 269.583 io_bytes/op: 2204.58 miss_ratio: 0.0287001 max_rss_mb: 676.426 610MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 53.298 io_bytes/op: 8128.98 miss_ratio: 0.0292452 max_rss_mb: 956.273 610MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1301.09 io_bytes/op: 2246.04 miss_ratio: 0.0289171 max_rss_mb: 788.812 The new version is still winning every time, sometimes dramatically so, and we can tell from the maximum resident memory numbers (which contain some noise, by the way) that the new cache is not cheating on memory usage. IMPORTANT: The previous generation experimental clock cache appears to hit a serious bottleneck in the higher thread count configurations, presumably due to some of its waiting functionality. (The same bottleneck is not seen with partitioned index+filters.)

This new clock cache only uses two shards for this configuration, and that helps to ensure that entries are part of a sufficiently big pool that their eviction order resembles the single-shard order.

Revamp, optimize new experimental clock cache (#10626) Summary: * Consolidates most metadata into a single word per slot so that more can be accomplished with a single atomic update. In the common case, Lookup was previously about 4 atomic updates, now just 1 atomic update. Common case Release was previously 1 atomic read + 1 atomic update, now just 1 atomic update. * Eliminate spins / waits / yields, which likely threaten some "lock free" benefits. Compare-exchange loops are only used in explicit Erase, and strict_capacity_limit=true Insert. Eviction uses opportunistic compare- exchange. * Relaxes some aggressiveness and guarantees. For example, * Duplicate Inserts will sometimes go undetected and the shadow duplicate will age out with eviction. * In many cases, the older Inserted value for a given cache key will be kept (i.e. Insert does not support overwrite). * Entries explicitly erased (rather than evicted) might not be freed immediately in some rare cases. * With strict_capacity_limit=false, capacity limit is not tracked/enforced as precisely as LRUCache, but is self-correcting and should only deviate by a very small number of extra or fewer entries. * Use smaller "computed default" number of cache shards in many cases, because benefits to larger usage tracking / eviction pools outweigh the small cost of more lock-free atomic contention. The improvement in CPU and I/O is dramatic in some limit-memory cases. * Even without the sharding change, the eviction algorithm is likely more effective than LRU overall because it's more stateful, even though the "hot path" state tracking for it is essentially free with ref counting. It is like a generalized CLOCK with aging (see code comments). I don't have performance numbers showing a specific improvement, but in theory, for a Poisson access pattern to each block, keeping some state allows better estimation of time to next access (Poisson interval) than strict LRU. The bounded randomness in CLOCK can also reduce "cliff" effect for repeated range scans approaching and exceeding cache size. ## Hot path algorithm comparison Rough descriptions, focusing on number and kind of atomic operations: * Old `Lookup()` (2-5 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment internal ref count at slot If possible hit: Check flags atomic (and non-atomic fields) If cache hit: Three distinct updates to 'flags' atomic Increment refs for internal-to-external Return Decrement internal ref count while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * New `Lookup()` (1-2 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment acquire counter in meta word (optimistic) If visible entry (already read meta word): If match (read non-atomic fields): Return Else: Decrement acquire counter in meta word Else if invisible entry (rare, already read meta word): Decrement acquire counter in meta word while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * Old `Release()` (1 atomic update, conditional on atomic read, rarely more): ``` Read atomic ref count If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return Else: Decrement ref count ``` * New `Release()` (1 unconditional atomic update, rarely more): ``` Increment release counter in meta word If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return ``` ## Performance test setup Build DB with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` Test with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=${CACHE_MB}000000 -duration 60 -threads=$THREADS -statistics ``` Numbers on a single socket Skylake Xeon system with 48 hardware threads, DEBUG_LEVEL=0 PORTABLE=0. Very similar story on a dual socket system with 80 hardware threads. Using (every 2nd) Fibonacci MB cache sizes to sample the territory between powers of two.

Mutex-based implementation quickly becomes contention-limited. New clock cache shows essentially perfect scaling up to number of physical cores (24), and then each hyperthreaded core adding about 1/4 the throughput of an additional physical core (see 48 thread case). Block cache miss rates (omitted above) are negligible across the board. With partitioned instead of full filters, the maximum speed-up vs. base is more like 2.5x rather than 5x. Now test a large block cache with low miss ratio, but some eviction is required: 1597MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 46.603 io_bytes/op: 1584.63 miss_ratio: 0.0201066 max_rss_mb: 1589.23 1597MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 45.079 io_bytes/op: 1530.03 miss_ratio: 0.019872 max_rss_mb: 1550.43 1597MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 48.711 io_bytes/op: 1566.63 miss_ratio: 0.0198923 max_rss_mb: 1691.4 1597MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 51.531 io_bytes/op: 1589.07 miss_ratio: 0.0201969 max_rss_mb: 1583.56 1597MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 301.174 io_bytes/op: 1439.52 miss_ratio: 0.0184218 max_rss_mb: 1656.59 1597MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 273.09 io_bytes/op: 1375.12 miss_ratio: 0.0180002 max_rss_mb: 1586.8 1597MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 904.497 io_bytes/op: 1411.29 miss_ratio: 0.0179934 max_rss_mb: 1775.89 1597MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1182.59 io_bytes/op: 1440.77 miss_ratio: 0.0185449 max_rss_mb: 1636.45 1597MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 309.91 io_bytes/op: 1438.25 miss_ratio: 0.018399 max_rss_mb: 1689.98 1597MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 267.605 io_bytes/op: 1394.16 miss_ratio: 0.0180286 max_rss_mb: 1631.91 1597MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 691.518 io_bytes/op: 9056.73 miss_ratio: 0.0186572 max_rss_mb: 1982.26 1597MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1406.12 io_bytes/op: 1440.82 miss_ratio: 0.0185463 max_rss_mb: 1685.63 610MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 45.511 io_bytes/op: 2279.61 miss_ratio: 0.0290528 max_rss_mb: 615.137 610MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 43.386 io_bytes/op: 2217.29 miss_ratio: 0.0289282 max_rss_mb: 600.996 610MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 46.207 io_bytes/op: 2275.51 miss_ratio: 0.0290057 max_rss_mb: 637.934 610MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 48.879 io_bytes/op: 2283.1 miss_ratio: 0.0291253 max_rss_mb: 613.5 610MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 306.59 io_bytes/op: 2250 miss_ratio: 0.0288721 max_rss_mb: 683.402 610MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 269.176 io_bytes/op: 2187.86 miss_ratio: 0.0286938 max_rss_mb: 628.742 610MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 855.097 io_bytes/op: 2279.26 miss_ratio: 0.0288009 max_rss_mb: 733.062 610MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1121.47 io_bytes/op: 2244.29 miss_ratio: 0.0289046 max_rss_mb: 666.453 610MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 305.079 io_bytes/op: 2252.43 miss_ratio: 0.0288884 max_rss_mb: 723.457 610MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 269.583 io_bytes/op: 2204.58 miss_ratio: 0.0287001 max_rss_mb: 676.426 610MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 53.298 io_bytes/op: 8128.98 miss_ratio: 0.0292452 max_rss_mb: 956.273 610MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1301.09 io_bytes/op: 2246.04 miss_ratio: 0.0289171 max_rss_mb: 788.812 The new version is still winning every time, sometimes dramatically so, and we can tell from the maximum resident memory numbers (which contain some noise, by the way) that the new cache is not cheating on memory usage.

(The same bottleneck is not seen with partitioned index+filters.)

This new clock cache only uses two shards for this configuration, and that helps to ensure that entries are part of a sufficiently big pool that their eviction order resembles the single-shard order.

// Usage on capacity
// -----------------
// Insert takes different approaches to usage tracking depending on
// strict_capacity_limit setting. If true, we enforce a kind of strong
// consistency where compare-exchange is used to ensure the usage number never
// exceeds its limit, and provide threads with an authoritative signal on how
// much "usage" they have taken ownership of. With strict_capacity_limit=false,
// we use a kind of "eventual consistency" where all threads Inserting to the
// same cache shard might race on reserving the same space, but the
// over-commitment will be worked out in later insertions. It is kind of a
// dance because we don't want threads racing each other too much on paying
// down the over-commitment (with eviction) either.

Revamp, optimize new experimental clock cache (#10626) Summary: * Consolidates most metadata into a single word per slot so that more can be accomplished with a single atomic update. In the common case, Lookup was previously about 4 atomic updates, now just 1 atomic update. Common case Release was previously 1 atomic read + 1 atomic update, now just 1 atomic update. * Eliminate spins / waits / yields, which likely threaten some "lock free" benefits. Compare-exchange loops are only used in explicit Erase, and strict_capacity_limit=true Insert. Eviction uses opportunistic compare- exchange. * Relaxes some aggressiveness and guarantees. For example, * Duplicate Inserts will sometimes go undetected and the shadow duplicate will age out with eviction. * In many cases, the older Inserted value for a given cache key will be kept (i.e. Insert does not support overwrite). * Entries explicitly erased (rather than evicted) might not be freed immediately in some rare cases. * With strict_capacity_limit=false, capacity limit is not tracked/enforced as precisely as LRUCache, but is self-correcting and should only deviate by a very small number of extra or fewer entries. * Use smaller "computed default" number of cache shards in many cases, because benefits to larger usage tracking / eviction pools outweigh the small cost of more lock-free atomic contention. The improvement in CPU and I/O is dramatic in some limit-memory cases. * Even without the sharding change, the eviction algorithm is likely more effective than LRU overall because it's more stateful, even though the "hot path" state tracking for it is essentially free with ref counting. It is like a generalized CLOCK with aging (see code comments). I don't have performance numbers showing a specific improvement, but in theory, for a Poisson access pattern to each block, keeping some state allows better estimation of time to next access (Poisson interval) than strict LRU. The bounded randomness in CLOCK can also reduce "cliff" effect for repeated range scans approaching and exceeding cache size. ## Hot path algorithm comparison Rough descriptions, focusing on number and kind of atomic operations: * Old `Lookup()` (2-5 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment internal ref count at slot If possible hit: Check flags atomic (and non-atomic fields) If cache hit: Three distinct updates to 'flags' atomic Increment refs for internal-to-external Return Decrement internal ref count while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * New `Lookup()` (1-2 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment acquire counter in meta word (optimistic) If visible entry (already read meta word): If match (read non-atomic fields): Return Else: Decrement acquire counter in meta word Else if invisible entry (rare, already read meta word): Decrement acquire counter in meta word while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * Old `Release()` (1 atomic update, conditional on atomic read, rarely more): ``` Read atomic ref count If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return Else: Decrement ref count ``` * New `Release()` (1 unconditional atomic update, rarely more): ``` Increment release counter in meta word If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return ``` ## Performance test setup Build DB with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` Test with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=${CACHE_MB}000000 -duration 60 -threads=$THREADS -statistics ``` Numbers on a single socket Skylake Xeon system with 48 hardware threads, DEBUG_LEVEL=0 PORTABLE=0.

Mutex-based implementation quickly becomes contention-limited. New clock cache shows essentially perfect scaling up to number of physical cores (24), and then each hyperthreaded core adding about 1/4 the throughput of an additional physical core (see 48 thread case). Block cache miss rates (omitted above) are negligible across the board. With partitioned instead of full filters, the maximum speed-up vs. base is more like 2.5x rather than 5x. Now test a large block cache with low miss ratio, but some eviction is required: 1597MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 46.603 io_bytes/op: 1584.63 miss_ratio: 0.0201066 max_rss_mb: 1589.23 1597MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 45.079 io_bytes/op: 1530.03 miss_ratio: 0.019872 max_rss_mb: 1550.43 1597MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 48.711 io_bytes/op: 1566.63 miss_ratio: 0.0198923 max_rss_mb: 1691.4 1597MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 51.531 io_bytes/op: 1589.07 miss_ratio: 0.0201969 max_rss_mb: 1583.56 1597MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 301.174 io_bytes/op: 1439.52 miss_ratio: 0.0184218 max_rss_mb: 1656.59 1597MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 273.09 io_bytes/op: 1375.12 miss_ratio: 0.0180002 max_rss_mb: 1586.8 1597MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 904.497 io_bytes/op: 1411.29 miss_ratio: 0.0179934 max_rss_mb: 1775.89 1597MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1182.59 io_bytes/op: 1440.77 miss_ratio: 0.0185449 max_rss_mb: 1636.45 1597MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 309.91 io_bytes/op: 1438.25 miss_ratio: 0.018399 max_rss_mb: 1689.98 1597MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 267.605 io_bytes/op: 1394.16 miss_ratio: 0.0180286 max_rss_mb: 1631.91 1597MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 691.518 io_bytes/op: 9056.73 miss_ratio: 0.0186572 max_rss_mb: 1982.26 1597MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1406.12 io_bytes/op: 1440.82 miss_ratio: 0.0185463 max_rss_mb: 1685.63 610MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 45.511 io_bytes/op: 2279.61 miss_ratio: 0.0290528 max_rss_mb: 615.137 610MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 43.386 io_bytes/op: 2217.29 miss_ratio: 0.0289282 max_rss_mb: 600.996 610MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 46.207 io_bytes/op: 2275.51 miss_ratio: 0.0290057 max_rss_mb: 637.934 610MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 48.879 io_bytes/op: 2283.1 miss_ratio: 0.0291253 max_rss_mb: 613.5 610MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 306.59 io_bytes/op: 2250 miss_ratio: 0.0288721 max_rss_mb: 683.402 610MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 269.176 io_bytes/op: 2187.86 miss_ratio: 0.0286938 max_rss_mb: 628.742 610MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 855.097 io_bytes/op: 2279.26 miss_ratio: 0.0288009 max_rss_mb: 733.062 610MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1121.47 io_bytes/op: 2244.29 miss_ratio: 0.0289046 max_rss_mb: 666.453 610MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 305.079 io_bytes/op: 2252.43 miss_ratio: 0.0288884 max_rss_mb: 723.457 610MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 269.583 io_bytes/op: 2204.58 miss_ratio: 0.0287001 max_rss_mb: 676.426 610MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 53.298 io_bytes/op: 8128.98 miss_ratio: 0.0292452 max_rss_mb: 956.273 610MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1301.09 io_bytes/op: 2246.04 miss_ratio: 0.0289171 max_rss_mb: 788.812 The new version is still winning every time, sometimes dramatically so, and we can tell from the maximum resident memory numbers (which contain some noise, by the way) that the new cache is not cheating on memory usage.

(The same bottleneck is not seen with partitioned index+filters.)

This new clock cache only uses two shards for this configuration, and that helps to ensure that entries are part of a sufficiently big pool that their eviction order resembles the single-shard order.

// Eviction
// --------
// A key part of Insert is evicting some entries currently unreferenced to
// make room for new entries. The high-level eviction algorithm is described
// above, but the details are also interesting. A key part is parallelizing
// eviction with a single CLOCK pointer. This works by each thread working on
// eviction pre-emptively incrementing the CLOCK pointer, and then CLOCK-
// updating or evicting the incremented-over slot(s). To reduce contention at
// the cost of possibly evicting too much, each thread increments the clock
// pointer by 4, so commits to updating at least 4 slots per batch. As
// described above, a CLOCK update will decrement the "countdown" of
// unreferenced entries, or evict unreferenced entries with zero countdown.
// Referenced entries are not updated, because we (presumably) don't want
// long-referenced entries to age while referenced. Note however that we
// cannot distinguish transiently referenced entries from cache user
// references, so some CLOCK updates might be somewhat arbitrarily skipped.
// This is OK as long as it is rare enough that eviction order is still
// pretty good.
//
Revamp, optimize new experimental clock cache (#10626) Summary: * Consolidates most metadata into a single word per slot so that more can be accomplished with a single atomic update. In the common case, Lookup was previously about 4 atomic updates, now just 1 atomic update. Common case Release was previously 1 atomic read + 1 atomic update, now just 1 atomic update. * Eliminate spins / waits / yields, which likely threaten some "lock free" benefits. Compare-exchange loops are only used in explicit Erase, and strict_capacity_limit=true Insert. Eviction uses opportunistic compare- exchange. * Relaxes some aggressiveness and guarantees. For example, * Duplicate Inserts will sometimes go undetected and the shadow duplicate will age out with eviction. * In many cases, the older Inserted value for a given cache key will be kept (i.e. Insert does not support overwrite). * Entries explicitly erased (rather than evicted) might not be freed immediately in some rare cases. * With strict_capacity_limit=false, capacity limit is not tracked/enforced as precisely as LRUCache, but is self-correcting and should only deviate by a very small number of extra or fewer entries. * Use smaller "computed default" number of cache shards in many cases, because benefits to larger usage tracking / eviction pools outweigh the small cost of more lock-free atomic contention. The improvement in CPU and I/O is dramatic in some limit-memory cases. * Even without the sharding change, the eviction algorithm is likely more effective than LRU overall because it's more stateful, even though the "hot path" state tracking for it is essentially free with ref counting. It is like a generalized CLOCK with aging (see code comments). I don't have performance numbers showing a specific improvement, but in theory, for a Poisson access pattern to each block, keeping some state allows better estimation of time to next access (Poisson interval) than strict LRU. The bounded randomness in CLOCK can also reduce "cliff" effect for repeated range scans approaching and exceeding cache size. ## Hot path algorithm comparison Rough descriptions, focusing on number and kind of atomic operations: * Old `Lookup()` (2-5 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment internal ref count at slot If possible hit: Check flags atomic (and non-atomic fields) If cache hit: Three distinct updates to 'flags' atomic Increment refs for internal-to-external Return Decrement internal ref count while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * New `Lookup()` (1-2 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment acquire counter in meta word (optimistic) If visible entry (already read meta word): If match (read non-atomic fields): Return Else: Decrement acquire counter in meta word Else if invisible entry (rare, already read meta word): Decrement acquire counter in meta word while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * Old `Release()` (1 atomic update, conditional on atomic read, rarely more): ``` Read atomic ref count If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return Else: Decrement ref count ``` * New `Release()` (1 unconditional atomic update, rarely more): ``` Increment release counter in meta word If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return ``` ## Performance test setup Build DB with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` Test with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=${CACHE_MB}000000 -duration 60 -threads=$THREADS -statistics ``` Numbers on a single socket Skylake Xeon system with 48 hardware threads, DEBUG_LEVEL=0 PORTABLE=0.

Mutex-based implementation quickly becomes contention-limited. New clock cache shows essentially perfect scaling up to number of physical cores (24), and then each hyperthreaded core adding about 1/4 the throughput of an additional physical core (see 48 thread case). Block cache miss rates (omitted above) are negligible across the board. With partitioned instead of full filters, the maximum speed-up vs. base is more like 2.5x rather than 5x. Now test a large block cache with low miss ratio, but some eviction is required: 1597MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 46.603 io_bytes/op: 1584.63 miss_ratio: 0.0201066 max_rss_mb: 1589.23 1597MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 45.079 io_bytes/op: 1530.03 miss_ratio: 0.019872 max_rss_mb: 1550.43 1597MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 48.711 io_bytes/op: 1566.63 miss_ratio: 0.0198923 max_rss_mb: 1691.4 1597MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 51.531 io_bytes/op: 1589.07 miss_ratio: 0.0201969 max_rss_mb: 1583.56 1597MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 301.174 io_bytes/op: 1439.52 miss_ratio: 0.0184218 max_rss_mb: 1656.59 1597MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 273.09 io_bytes/op: 1375.12 miss_ratio: 0.0180002 max_rss_mb: 1586.8 1597MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 904.497 io_bytes/op: 1411.29 miss_ratio: 0.0179934 max_rss_mb: 1775.89 1597MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1182.59 io_bytes/op: 1440.77 miss_ratio: 0.0185449 max_rss_mb: 1636.45 1597MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 309.91 io_bytes/op: 1438.25 miss_ratio: 0.018399 max_rss_mb: 1689.98 1597MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 267.605 io_bytes/op: 1394.16 miss_ratio: 0.0180286 max_rss_mb: 1631.91 1597MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 691.518 io_bytes/op: 9056.73 miss_ratio: 0.0186572 max_rss_mb: 1982.26 1597MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1406.12 io_bytes/op: 1440.82 miss_ratio: 0.0185463 max_rss_mb: 1685.63 610MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 45.511 io_bytes/op: 2279.61 miss_ratio: 0.0290528 max_rss_mb: 615.137 610MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 43.386 io_bytes/op: 2217.29 miss_ratio: 0.0289282 max_rss_mb: 600.996 610MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 46.207 io_bytes/op: 2275.51 miss_ratio: 0.0290057 max_rss_mb: 637.934 610MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 48.879 io_bytes/op: 2283.1 miss_ratio: 0.0291253 max_rss_mb: 613.5 610MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 306.59 io_bytes/op: 2250 miss_ratio: 0.0288721 max_rss_mb: 683.402 610MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 269.176 io_bytes/op: 2187.86 miss_ratio: 0.0286938 max_rss_mb: 628.742 610MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 855.097 io_bytes/op: 2279.26 miss_ratio: 0.0288009 max_rss_mb: 733.062 610MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1121.47 io_bytes/op: 2244.29 miss_ratio: 0.0289046 max_rss_mb: 666.453 610MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 305.079 io_bytes/op: 2252.43 miss_ratio: 0.0288884 max_rss_mb: 723.457 610MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 269.583 io_bytes/op: 2204.58 miss_ratio: 0.0287001 max_rss_mb: 676.426 610MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 53.298 io_bytes/op: 8128.98 miss_ratio: 0.0292452 max_rss_mb: 956.273 610MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1301.09 io_bytes/op: 2246.04 miss_ratio: 0.0289171 max_rss_mb: 788.812 The new version is still winning every time, sometimes dramatically so, and we can tell from the maximum resident memory numbers (which contain some noise, by the way) that the new cache is not cheating on memory usage.

(The same bottleneck is not seen with partitioned index+filters.)

This new clock cache only uses two shards for this configuration, and that helps to ensure that entries are part of a sufficiently big pool that their eviction order resembles the single-shard order.

// There is no synchronization on the completion of the CLOCK updates, so it
// is theoretically possible for another thread to cycle back around and have
// two threads racing on CLOCK updates to the same slot. Thus, we cannot rely
// on any implied exclusivity to make the updates or eviction more efficient.
// These updates use an opportunistic compare-exchange (no loop), where a
// racing thread might cause the update to be skipped without retry, but in
// such case the update is likely not needed because the most likely update
// to an entry is that it has become referenced. (TODO: test efficiency of

//
Revamp, optimize new experimental clock cache (#10626) Summary: * Consolidates most metadata into a single word per slot so that more can be accomplished with a single atomic update. In the common case, Lookup was previously about 4 atomic updates, now just 1 atomic update. Common case Release was previously 1 atomic read + 1 atomic update, now just 1 atomic update. * Eliminate spins / waits / yields, which likely threaten some "lock free" benefits. Compare-exchange loops are only used in explicit Erase, and strict_capacity_limit=true Insert. Eviction uses opportunistic compare- exchange. * Relaxes some aggressiveness and guarantees. For example, * Duplicate Inserts will sometimes go undetected and the shadow duplicate will age out with eviction. * In many cases, the older Inserted value for a given cache key will be kept (i.e. Insert does not support overwrite). * Entries explicitly erased (rather than evicted) might not be freed immediately in some rare cases. * With strict_capacity_limit=false, capacity limit is not tracked/enforced as precisely as LRUCache, but is self-correcting and should only deviate by a very small number of extra or fewer entries. * Use smaller "computed default" number of cache shards in many cases, because benefits to larger usage tracking / eviction pools outweigh the small cost of more lock-free atomic contention. The improvement in CPU and I/O is dramatic in some limit-memory cases. * Even without the sharding change, the eviction algorithm is likely more effective than LRU overall because it's more stateful, even though the "hot path" state tracking for it is essentially free with ref counting. It is like a generalized CLOCK with aging (see code comments). I don't have performance numbers showing a specific improvement, but in theory, for a Poisson access pattern to each block, keeping some state allows better estimation of time to next access (Poisson interval) than strict LRU. The bounded randomness in CLOCK can also reduce "cliff" effect for repeated range scans approaching and exceeding cache size. ## Hot path algorithm comparison Rough descriptions, focusing on number and kind of atomic operations: * Old `Lookup()` (2-5 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment internal ref count at slot If possible hit: Check flags atomic (and non-atomic fields) If cache hit: Three distinct updates to 'flags' atomic Increment refs for internal-to-external Return Decrement internal ref count while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * New `Lookup()` (1-2 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment acquire counter in meta word (optimistic) If visible entry (already read meta word): If match (read non-atomic fields): Return Else: Decrement acquire counter in meta word Else if invisible entry (rare, already read meta word): Decrement acquire counter in meta word while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * Old `Release()` (1 atomic update, conditional on atomic read, rarely more): ``` Read atomic ref count If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return Else: Decrement ref count ``` * New `Release()` (1 unconditional atomic update, rarely more): ``` Increment release counter in meta word If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return ``` ## Performance test setup Build DB with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` Test with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=${CACHE_MB}000000 -duration 60 -threads=$THREADS -statistics ``` Numbers on a single socket Skylake Xeon system with 48 hardware threads, DEBUG_LEVEL=0 PORTABLE=0.

Mutex-based implementation quickly becomes contention-limited. New clock cache shows essentially perfect scaling up to number of physical cores (24), and then each hyperthreaded core adding about 1/4 the throughput of an additional physical core (see 48 thread case). Block cache miss rates (omitted above) are negligible across the board. With partitioned instead of full filters, the maximum speed-up vs. base is more like 2.5x rather than 5x. Now test a large block cache with low miss ratio, but some eviction is required: 1597MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 46.603 io_bytes/op: 1584.63 miss_ratio: 0.0201066 max_rss_mb: 1589.23 1597MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 45.079 io_bytes/op: 1530.03 miss_ratio: 0.019872 max_rss_mb: 1550.43 1597MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 48.711 io_bytes/op: 1566.63 miss_ratio: 0.0198923 max_rss_mb: 1691.4 1597MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 51.531 io_bytes/op: 1589.07 miss_ratio: 0.0201969 max_rss_mb: 1583.56 1597MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 301.174 io_bytes/op: 1439.52 miss_ratio: 0.0184218 max_rss_mb: 1656.59 1597MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 273.09 io_bytes/op: 1375.12 miss_ratio: 0.0180002 max_rss_mb: 1586.8 1597MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 904.497 io_bytes/op: 1411.29 miss_ratio: 0.0179934 max_rss_mb: 1775.89 1597MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1182.59 io_bytes/op: 1440.77 miss_ratio: 0.0185449 max_rss_mb: 1636.45 1597MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 309.91 io_bytes/op: 1438.25 miss_ratio: 0.018399 max_rss_mb: 1689.98 1597MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 267.605 io_bytes/op: 1394.16 miss_ratio: 0.0180286 max_rss_mb: 1631.91 1597MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 691.518 io_bytes/op: 9056.73 miss_ratio: 0.0186572 max_rss_mb: 1982.26 1597MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1406.12 io_bytes/op: 1440.82 miss_ratio: 0.0185463 max_rss_mb: 1685.63 610MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 45.511 io_bytes/op: 2279.61 miss_ratio: 0.0290528 max_rss_mb: 615.137 610MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 43.386 io_bytes/op: 2217.29 miss_ratio: 0.0289282 max_rss_mb: 600.996 610MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 46.207 io_bytes/op: 2275.51 miss_ratio: 0.0290057 max_rss_mb: 637.934 610MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 48.879 io_bytes/op: 2283.1 miss_ratio: 0.0291253 max_rss_mb: 613.5 610MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 306.59 io_bytes/op: 2250 miss_ratio: 0.0288721 max_rss_mb: 683.402 610MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 269.176 io_bytes/op: 2187.86 miss_ratio: 0.0286938 max_rss_mb: 628.742 610MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 855.097 io_bytes/op: 2279.26 miss_ratio: 0.0288009 max_rss_mb: 733.062 610MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1121.47 io_bytes/op: 2244.29 miss_ratio: 0.0289046 max_rss_mb: 666.453 610MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 305.079 io_bytes/op: 2252.43 miss_ratio: 0.0288884 max_rss_mb: 723.457 610MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 269.583 io_bytes/op: 2204.58 miss_ratio: 0.0287001 max_rss_mb: 676.426 610MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 53.298 io_bytes/op: 8128.98 miss_ratio: 0.0292452 max_rss_mb: 956.273 610MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1301.09 io_bytes/op: 2246.04 miss_ratio: 0.0289171 max_rss_mb: 788.812 The new version is still winning every time, sometimes dramatically so, and we can tell from the maximum resident memory numbers (which contain some noise, by the way) that the new cache is not cheating on memory usage.

(The same bottleneck is not seen with partitioned index+filters.)

This new clock cache only uses two shards for this configuration, and that helps to ensure that entries are part of a sufficiently big pool that their eviction order resembles the single-shard order.

Revamp, optimize new experimental clock cache (#10626) Summary: * Consolidates most metadata into a single word per slot so that more can be accomplished with a single atomic update. In the common case, Lookup was previously about 4 atomic updates, now just 1 atomic update. Common case Release was previously 1 atomic read + 1 atomic update, now just 1 atomic update. * Eliminate spins / waits / yields, which likely threaten some "lock free" benefits. Compare-exchange loops are only used in explicit Erase, and strict_capacity_limit=true Insert. Eviction uses opportunistic compare- exchange. * Relaxes some aggressiveness and guarantees. For example, * Duplicate Inserts will sometimes go undetected and the shadow duplicate will age out with eviction. * In many cases, the older Inserted value for a given cache key will be kept (i.e. Insert does not support overwrite). * Entries explicitly erased (rather than evicted) might not be freed immediately in some rare cases. * With strict_capacity_limit=false, capacity limit is not tracked/enforced as precisely as LRUCache, but is self-correcting and should only deviate by a very small number of extra or fewer entries. * Use smaller "computed default" number of cache shards in many cases, because benefits to larger usage tracking / eviction pools outweigh the small cost of more lock-free atomic contention. The improvement in CPU and I/O is dramatic in some limit-memory cases. * Even without the sharding change, the eviction algorithm is likely more effective than LRU overall because it's more stateful, even though the "hot path" state tracking for it is essentially free with ref counting. It is like a generalized CLOCK with aging (see code comments). I don't have performance numbers showing a specific improvement, but in theory, for a Poisson access pattern to each block, keeping some state allows better estimation of time to next access (Poisson interval) than strict LRU. The bounded randomness in CLOCK can also reduce "cliff" effect for repeated range scans approaching and exceeding cache size. ## Hot path algorithm comparison Rough descriptions, focusing on number and kind of atomic operations: * Old `Lookup()` (2-5 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment internal ref count at slot If possible hit: Check flags atomic (and non-atomic fields) If cache hit: Three distinct updates to 'flags' atomic Increment refs for internal-to-external Return Decrement internal ref count while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * New `Lookup()` (1-2 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment acquire counter in meta word (optimistic) If visible entry (already read meta word): If match (read non-atomic fields): Return Else: Decrement acquire counter in meta word Else if invisible entry (rare, already read meta word): Decrement acquire counter in meta word while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * Old `Release()` (1 atomic update, conditional on atomic read, rarely more): ``` Read atomic ref count If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return Else: Decrement ref count ``` * New `Release()` (1 unconditional atomic update, rarely more): ``` Increment release counter in meta word If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return ``` ## Performance test setup Build DB with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` Test with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=${CACHE_MB}000000 -duration 60 -threads=$THREADS -statistics ``` Numbers on a single socket Skylake Xeon system with 48 hardware threads, DEBUG_LEVEL=0 PORTABLE=0.

Mutex-based implementation quickly becomes contention-limited. New clock cache shows essentially perfect scaling up to number of physical cores (24), and then each hyperthreaded core adding about 1/4 the throughput of an additional physical core (see 48 thread case). Block cache miss rates (omitted above) are negligible across the board. With partitioned instead of full filters, the maximum speed-up vs. base is more like 2.5x rather than 5x. Now test a large block cache with low miss ratio, but some eviction is required: 1597MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 46.603 io_bytes/op: 1584.63 miss_ratio: 0.0201066 max_rss_mb: 1589.23 1597MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 45.079 io_bytes/op: 1530.03 miss_ratio: 0.019872 max_rss_mb: 1550.43 1597MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 48.711 io_bytes/op: 1566.63 miss_ratio: 0.0198923 max_rss_mb: 1691.4 1597MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 51.531 io_bytes/op: 1589.07 miss_ratio: 0.0201969 max_rss_mb: 1583.56 1597MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 301.174 io_bytes/op: 1439.52 miss_ratio: 0.0184218 max_rss_mb: 1656.59 1597MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 273.09 io_bytes/op: 1375.12 miss_ratio: 0.0180002 max_rss_mb: 1586.8 1597MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 904.497 io_bytes/op: 1411.29 miss_ratio: 0.0179934 max_rss_mb: 1775.89 1597MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1182.59 io_bytes/op: 1440.77 miss_ratio: 0.0185449 max_rss_mb: 1636.45 1597MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 309.91 io_bytes/op: 1438.25 miss_ratio: 0.018399 max_rss_mb: 1689.98 1597MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 267.605 io_bytes/op: 1394.16 miss_ratio: 0.0180286 max_rss_mb: 1631.91 1597MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 691.518 io_bytes/op: 9056.73 miss_ratio: 0.0186572 max_rss_mb: 1982.26 1597MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1406.12 io_bytes/op: 1440.82 miss_ratio: 0.0185463 max_rss_mb: 1685.63 610MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 45.511 io_bytes/op: 2279.61 miss_ratio: 0.0290528 max_rss_mb: 615.137 610MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 43.386 io_bytes/op: 2217.29 miss_ratio: 0.0289282 max_rss_mb: 600.996 610MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 46.207 io_bytes/op: 2275.51 miss_ratio: 0.0290057 max_rss_mb: 637.934 610MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 48.879 io_bytes/op: 2283.1 miss_ratio: 0.0291253 max_rss_mb: 613.5 610MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 306.59 io_bytes/op: 2250 miss_ratio: 0.0288721 max_rss_mb: 683.402 610MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 269.176 io_bytes/op: 2187.86 miss_ratio: 0.0286938 max_rss_mb: 628.742 610MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 855.097 io_bytes/op: 2279.26 miss_ratio: 0.0288009 max_rss_mb: 733.062 610MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1121.47 io_bytes/op: 2244.29 miss_ratio: 0.0289046 max_rss_mb: 666.453 610MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 305.079 io_bytes/op: 2252.43 miss_ratio: 0.0288884 max_rss_mb: 723.457 610MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 269.583 io_bytes/op: 2204.58 miss_ratio: 0.0287001 max_rss_mb: 676.426 610MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 53.298 io_bytes/op: 8128.98 miss_ratio: 0.0292452 max_rss_mb: 956.273 610MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1301.09 io_bytes/op: 2246.04 miss_ratio: 0.0289171 max_rss_mb: 788.812 The new version is still winning every time, sometimes dramatically so, and we can tell from the maximum resident memory numbers (which contain some noise, by the way) that the new cache is not cheating on memory usage.

(The same bottleneck is not seen with partitioned index+filters.)

This new clock cache only uses two shards for this configuration, and that helps to ensure that entries are part of a sufficiently big pool that their eviction order resembles the single-shard order.

Revamp, optimize new experimental clock cache (#10626) Summary: * Consolidates most metadata into a single word per slot so that more can be accomplished with a single atomic update. In the common case, Lookup was previously about 4 atomic updates, now just 1 atomic update. Common case Release was previously 1 atomic read + 1 atomic update, now just 1 atomic update. * Eliminate spins / waits / yields, which likely threaten some "lock free" benefits. Compare-exchange loops are only used in explicit Erase, and strict_capacity_limit=true Insert. Eviction uses opportunistic compare- exchange. * Relaxes some aggressiveness and guarantees. For example, * Duplicate Inserts will sometimes go undetected and the shadow duplicate will age out with eviction. * In many cases, the older Inserted value for a given cache key will be kept (i.e. Insert does not support overwrite). * Entries explicitly erased (rather than evicted) might not be freed immediately in some rare cases. * With strict_capacity_limit=false, capacity limit is not tracked/enforced as precisely as LRUCache, but is self-correcting and should only deviate by a very small number of extra or fewer entries. * Use smaller "computed default" number of cache shards in many cases, because benefits to larger usage tracking / eviction pools outweigh the small cost of more lock-free atomic contention. The improvement in CPU and I/O is dramatic in some limit-memory cases. * Even without the sharding change, the eviction algorithm is likely more effective than LRU overall because it's more stateful, even though the "hot path" state tracking for it is essentially free with ref counting. It is like a generalized CLOCK with aging (see code comments). I don't have performance numbers showing a specific improvement, but in theory, for a Poisson access pattern to each block, keeping some state allows better estimation of time to next access (Poisson interval) than strict LRU. The bounded randomness in CLOCK can also reduce "cliff" effect for repeated range scans approaching and exceeding cache size. ## Hot path algorithm comparison Rough descriptions, focusing on number and kind of atomic operations: * Old `Lookup()` (2-5 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment internal ref count at slot If possible hit: Check flags atomic (and non-atomic fields) If cache hit: Three distinct updates to 'flags' atomic Increment refs for internal-to-external Return Decrement internal ref count while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * New `Lookup()` (1-2 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment acquire counter in meta word (optimistic) If visible entry (already read meta word): If match (read non-atomic fields): Return Else: Decrement acquire counter in meta word Else if invisible entry (rare, already read meta word): Decrement acquire counter in meta word while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * Old `Release()` (1 atomic update, conditional on atomic read, rarely more): ``` Read atomic ref count If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return Else: Decrement ref count ``` * New `Release()` (1 unconditional atomic update, rarely more): ``` Increment release counter in meta word If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return ``` ## Performance test setup Build DB with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` Test with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=${CACHE_MB}000000 -duration 60 -threads=$THREADS -statistics ``` Numbers on a single socket Skylake Xeon system with 48 hardware threads, DEBUG_LEVEL=0 PORTABLE=0.

Mutex-based implementation quickly becomes contention-limited. New clock cache shows essentially perfect scaling up to number of physical cores (24), and then each hyperthreaded core adding about 1/4 the throughput of an additional physical core (see 48 thread case). Block cache miss rates (omitted above) are negligible across the board. With partitioned instead of full filters, the maximum speed-up vs. base is more like 2.5x rather than 5x. Now test a large block cache with low miss ratio, but some eviction is required: 1597MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 46.603 io_bytes/op: 1584.63 miss_ratio: 0.0201066 max_rss_mb: 1589.23 1597MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 45.079 io_bytes/op: 1530.03 miss_ratio: 0.019872 max_rss_mb: 1550.43 1597MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 48.711 io_bytes/op: 1566.63 miss_ratio: 0.0198923 max_rss_mb: 1691.4 1597MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 51.531 io_bytes/op: 1589.07 miss_ratio: 0.0201969 max_rss_mb: 1583.56 1597MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 301.174 io_bytes/op: 1439.52 miss_ratio: 0.0184218 max_rss_mb: 1656.59 1597MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 273.09 io_bytes/op: 1375.12 miss_ratio: 0.0180002 max_rss_mb: 1586.8 1597MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 904.497 io_bytes/op: 1411.29 miss_ratio: 0.0179934 max_rss_mb: 1775.89 1597MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1182.59 io_bytes/op: 1440.77 miss_ratio: 0.0185449 max_rss_mb: 1636.45 1597MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 309.91 io_bytes/op: 1438.25 miss_ratio: 0.018399 max_rss_mb: 1689.98 1597MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 267.605 io_bytes/op: 1394.16 miss_ratio: 0.0180286 max_rss_mb: 1631.91 1597MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 691.518 io_bytes/op: 9056.73 miss_ratio: 0.0186572 max_rss_mb: 1982.26 1597MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1406.12 io_bytes/op: 1440.82 miss_ratio: 0.0185463 max_rss_mb: 1685.63 610MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 45.511 io_bytes/op: 2279.61 miss_ratio: 0.0290528 max_rss_mb: 615.137 610MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 43.386 io_bytes/op: 2217.29 miss_ratio: 0.0289282 max_rss_mb: 600.996 610MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 46.207 io_bytes/op: 2275.51 miss_ratio: 0.0290057 max_rss_mb: 637.934 610MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 48.879 io_bytes/op: 2283.1 miss_ratio: 0.0291253 max_rss_mb: 613.5 610MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 306.59 io_bytes/op: 2250 miss_ratio: 0.0288721 max_rss_mb: 683.402 610MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 269.176 io_bytes/op: 2187.86 miss_ratio: 0.0286938 max_rss_mb: 628.742 610MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 855.097 io_bytes/op: 2279.26 miss_ratio: 0.0288009 max_rss_mb: 733.062 610MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1121.47 io_bytes/op: 2244.29 miss_ratio: 0.0289046 max_rss_mb: 666.453 610MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 305.079 io_bytes/op: 2252.43 miss_ratio: 0.0288884 max_rss_mb: 723.457 610MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 269.583 io_bytes/op: 2204.58 miss_ratio: 0.0287001 max_rss_mb: 676.426 610MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 53.298 io_bytes/op: 8128.98 miss_ratio: 0.0292452 max_rss_mb: 956.273 610MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1301.09 io_bytes/op: 2246.04 miss_ratio: 0.0289171 max_rss_mb: 788.812 The new version is still winning every time, sometimes dramatically so, and we can tell from the maximum resident memory numbers (which contain some noise, by the way) that the new cache is not cheating on memory usage.

(The same bottleneck is not seen with partitioned index+filters.)

This new clock cache only uses two shards for this configuration, and that helps to ensure that entries are part of a sufficiently big pool that their eviction order resembles the single-shard order.

//
Revamp, optimize new experimental clock cache (#10626) Summary: * Consolidates most metadata into a single word per slot so that more can be accomplished with a single atomic update. In the common case, Lookup was previously about 4 atomic updates, now just 1 atomic update. Common case Release was previously 1 atomic read + 1 atomic update, now just 1 atomic update. * Eliminate spins / waits / yields, which likely threaten some "lock free" benefits. Compare-exchange loops are only used in explicit Erase, and strict_capacity_limit=true Insert. Eviction uses opportunistic compare- exchange. * Relaxes some aggressiveness and guarantees. For example, * Duplicate Inserts will sometimes go undetected and the shadow duplicate will age out with eviction. * In many cases, the older Inserted value for a given cache key will be kept (i.e. Insert does not support overwrite). * Entries explicitly erased (rather than evicted) might not be freed immediately in some rare cases. * With strict_capacity_limit=false, capacity limit is not tracked/enforced as precisely as LRUCache, but is self-correcting and should only deviate by a very small number of extra or fewer entries. * Use smaller "computed default" number of cache shards in many cases, because benefits to larger usage tracking / eviction pools outweigh the small cost of more lock-free atomic contention. The improvement in CPU and I/O is dramatic in some limit-memory cases. * Even without the sharding change, the eviction algorithm is likely more effective than LRU overall because it's more stateful, even though the "hot path" state tracking for it is essentially free with ref counting. It is like a generalized CLOCK with aging (see code comments). I don't have performance numbers showing a specific improvement, but in theory, for a Poisson access pattern to each block, keeping some state allows better estimation of time to next access (Poisson interval) than strict LRU. The bounded randomness in CLOCK can also reduce "cliff" effect for repeated range scans approaching and exceeding cache size. ## Hot path algorithm comparison Rough descriptions, focusing on number and kind of atomic operations: * Old `Lookup()` (2-5 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment internal ref count at slot If possible hit: Check flags atomic (and non-atomic fields) If cache hit: Three distinct updates to 'flags' atomic Increment refs for internal-to-external Return Decrement internal ref count while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * New `Lookup()` (1-2 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment acquire counter in meta word (optimistic) If visible entry (already read meta word): If match (read non-atomic fields): Return Else: Decrement acquire counter in meta word Else if invisible entry (rare, already read meta word): Decrement acquire counter in meta word while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * Old `Release()` (1 atomic update, conditional on atomic read, rarely more): ``` Read atomic ref count If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return Else: Decrement ref count ``` * New `Release()` (1 unconditional atomic update, rarely more): ``` Increment release counter in meta word If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return ``` ## Performance test setup Build DB with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` Test with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=${CACHE_MB}000000 -duration 60 -threads=$THREADS -statistics ``` Numbers on a single socket Skylake Xeon system with 48 hardware threads, DEBUG_LEVEL=0 PORTABLE=0.

Mutex-based implementation quickly becomes contention-limited. New clock cache shows essentially perfect scaling up to number of physical cores (24), and then each hyperthreaded core adding about 1/4 the throughput of an additional physical core (see 48 thread case). Block cache miss rates (omitted above) are negligible across the board. With partitioned instead of full filters, the maximum speed-up vs. base is more like 2.5x rather than 5x. Now test a large block cache with low miss ratio, but some eviction is required: 1597MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 46.603 io_bytes/op: 1584.63 miss_ratio: 0.0201066 max_rss_mb: 1589.23 1597MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 45.079 io_bytes/op: 1530.03 miss_ratio: 0.019872 max_rss_mb: 1550.43 1597MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 48.711 io_bytes/op: 1566.63 miss_ratio: 0.0198923 max_rss_mb: 1691.4 1597MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 51.531 io_bytes/op: 1589.07 miss_ratio: 0.0201969 max_rss_mb: 1583.56 1597MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 301.174 io_bytes/op: 1439.52 miss_ratio: 0.0184218 max_rss_mb: 1656.59 1597MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 273.09 io_bytes/op: 1375.12 miss_ratio: 0.0180002 max_rss_mb: 1586.8 1597MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 904.497 io_bytes/op: 1411.29 miss_ratio: 0.0179934 max_rss_mb: 1775.89 1597MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1182.59 io_bytes/op: 1440.77 miss_ratio: 0.0185449 max_rss_mb: 1636.45 1597MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 309.91 io_bytes/op: 1438.25 miss_ratio: 0.018399 max_rss_mb: 1689.98 1597MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 267.605 io_bytes/op: 1394.16 miss_ratio: 0.0180286 max_rss_mb: 1631.91 1597MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 691.518 io_bytes/op: 9056.73 miss_ratio: 0.0186572 max_rss_mb: 1982.26 1597MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1406.12 io_bytes/op: 1440.82 miss_ratio: 0.0185463 max_rss_mb: 1685.63 610MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 45.511 io_bytes/op: 2279.61 miss_ratio: 0.0290528 max_rss_mb: 615.137 610MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 43.386 io_bytes/op: 2217.29 miss_ratio: 0.0289282 max_rss_mb: 600.996 610MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 46.207 io_bytes/op: 2275.51 miss_ratio: 0.0290057 max_rss_mb: 637.934 610MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 48.879 io_bytes/op: 2283.1 miss_ratio: 0.0291253 max_rss_mb: 613.5 610MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 306.59 io_bytes/op: 2250 miss_ratio: 0.0288721 max_rss_mb: 683.402 610MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 269.176 io_bytes/op: 2187.86 miss_ratio: 0.0286938 max_rss_mb: 628.742 610MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 855.097 io_bytes/op: 2279.26 miss_ratio: 0.0288009 max_rss_mb: 733.062 610MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1121.47 io_bytes/op: 2244.29 miss_ratio: 0.0289046 max_rss_mb: 666.453 610MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 305.079 io_bytes/op: 2252.43 miss_ratio: 0.0288884 max_rss_mb: 723.457 610MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 269.583 io_bytes/op: 2204.58 miss_ratio: 0.0287001 max_rss_mb: 676.426 610MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 53.298 io_bytes/op: 8128.98 miss_ratio: 0.0292452 max_rss_mb: 956.273 610MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1301.09 io_bytes/op: 2246.04 miss_ratio: 0.0289171 max_rss_mb: 788.812 The new version is still winning every time, sometimes dramatically so, and we can tell from the maximum resident memory numbers (which contain some noise, by the way) that the new cache is not cheating on memory usage.

This new clock cache only uses two shards for this configuration, and that helps to ensure that entries are part of a sufficiently big pool that their eviction order resembles the single-shard order.

Prefer static_cast in place of most reinterpret_cast (#12308) Summary: The following are risks associated with pointer-to-pointer reinterpret_cast: * Can produce the "wrong result" (crash or memory corruption). IIRC, in theory this can happen for any up-cast or down-cast for a non-standard-layout type, though in practice would only happen for multiple inheritance cases (where the base class pointer might be "inside" the derived object). We don't use multiple inheritance a lot, but we do. * Can mask useful compiler errors upon code change, including converting between unrelated pointer types that you are expecting to be related, and converting between pointer and scalar types unintentionally. I can only think of some obscure cases where static_cast could be troublesome when it compiles as a replacement: * Going through `void*` could plausibly cause unnecessary or broken pointer arithmetic. Suppose we have `struct Derived: public Base1, public Base2`. If we have `Derived*` -> `void*` -> `Base2*` -> `Derived*` through reinterpret casts, this could plausibly work (though technical UB) assuming the `Base2*` is not dereferenced. Changing to static cast could introduce breaking pointer arithmetic. * Unnecessary (but safe) pointer arithmetic could arise in a case like `Derived*` -> `Base2*` -> `Derived*` where before the Base2 pointer might not have been dereferenced. This could potentially affect performance. With some light scripting, I tried replacing pointer-to-pointer reinterpret_casts with static_cast and kept the cases that still compile. Most occurrences of reinterpret_cast have successfully been changed (except for java/ and third-party/). 294 changed, 257 remain. A couple of related interventions included here: * Previously Cache::Handle was not actually derived from in the implementations and just used as a `void*` stand-in with reinterpret_cast. Now there is a relationship to allow static_cast. In theory, this could introduce pointer arithmetic (as described above) but is unlikely without multiple inheritance AND non-empty Cache::Handle. * Remove some unnecessary casts to void* as this is allowed to be implicit (for better or worse). Most of the remaining reinterpret_casts are for converting to/from raw bytes of objects. We could consider better idioms for these patterns in follow-up work. I wish there were a way to implement a template variant of static_cast that would only compile if no pointer arithmetic is generated, but best I can tell, this is not possible. AFAIK the best you could do is a dynamic check that the void* conversion after the static cast is unchanged.

struct ClockHandleBasicData : public Cache::Handle {
Major Cache refactoring, CPU efficiency improvement (#10975) Summary: This is several refactorings bundled into one to avoid having to incrementally re-modify uses of Cache several times. Overall, there are breaking changes to Cache class, and it becomes more of low-level interface for implementing caches, especially block cache. New internal APIs make using Cache cleaner than before, and more insulated from block cache evolution. Hopefully, this is the last really big block cache refactoring, because of rather effectively decoupling the implementations from the uses. This change also removes the EXPERIMENTAL designation on the SecondaryCache support in Cache. It seems reasonably mature at this point but still subject to change/evolution (as I warn in the API docs for Cache). The high-level motivation for this refactoring is to minimize code duplication / compounding complexity in adding SecondaryCache support to HyperClockCache (in a later PR). Other benefits listed below. * static_cast lines of code +29 -35 (net removed 6) * reinterpret_cast lines of code +6 -32 (net removed 26) ## cache.h and secondary_cache.h * Always use CacheItemHelper with entries instead of just a Deleter. There are several motivations / justifications: * Simpler for implementations to deal with just one Insert and one Lookup. * Simpler and more efficient implementation because we don't have to track which entries are using helpers and which are using deleters * Gets rid of hack to classify cache entries by their deleter. Instead, the CacheItemHelper includes a CacheEntryRole. This simplifies a lot of code (cache_entry_roles.h almost eliminated). Fixes https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/9428. * Makes it trivial to adjust SecondaryCache behavior based on kind of block (e.g. don't re-compress filter blocks). * It is arguably less convenient for many direct users of Cache, but direct users of Cache are now rare with introduction of typed_cache.h (below). * I considered and rejected an alternative approach in which we reduce customizability by assuming each secondary cache compatible value starts with a Slice referencing the uncompressed block contents (already true or mostly true), but we apparently intend to stack secondary caches. Saving an entry from a compressed secondary to a lower tier requires custom handling offered by SaveToCallback, etc. * Make CreateCallback part of the helper and introduce CreateContext to work with it (alternative to https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/10562). This cleans up the interface while still allowing context to be provided for loading/parsing values into primary cache. This model works for async lookup in BlockBasedTable reader (reader owns a CreateContext) under the assumption that it always waits on secondary cache operations to finish. (Otherwise, the CreateContext could be destroyed while async operation depending on it continues.) This likely contributes most to the observed performance improvement because it saves an std::function backed by a heap allocation. * Use char* for serialized data, e.g. in SaveToCallback, where void* was confusingly used. (We use `char*` for serialized byte data all over RocksDB, with many advantages over `void*`. `memcpy` etc. are legacy APIs that should not be mimicked.) * Add a type alias Cache::ObjectPtr = void*, so that we can better indicate the intent of the void* when it is to be the object associated with a Cache entry. Related: started (but did not complete) a refactoring to move away from "value" of a cache entry toward "object" or "obj". (It is confusing to call Cache a key-value store (like DB) when it is really storing arbitrary in-memory objects, not byte strings.) * Remove unnecessary key param from DeleterFn. This is good for efficiency in HyperClockCache, which does not directly store the cache key in memory. (Alternative to https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/10774) * Add allocator to Cache DeleterFn. This is a kind of future-proofing change in case we get more serious about using the Cache allocator for memory tracked by the Cache. Right now, only the uncompressed block contents are allocated using the allocator, and a pointer to that allocator is saved as part of the cached object so that the deleter can use it. (See CacheAllocationPtr.) If in the future we are able to "flatten out" our Cache objects some more, it would be good not to have to track the allocator as part of each object. * Removes legacy `ApplyToAllCacheEntries` and changes `ApplyToAllEntries` signature for Deleter->CacheItemHelper change. ## typed_cache.h Adds various "typed" interfaces to the Cache as internal APIs, so that most uses of Cache can use simple type safe code without casting and without explicit deleters, etc. Almost all of the non-test, non-glue code uses of Cache have been migrated. (Follow-up work: CompressedSecondaryCache deserves deeper attention to migrate.) This change expands RocksDB's internal usage of metaprogramming and SFINAE (https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/sfinae). The existing usages of Cache are divided up at a high level into these new interfaces. See updated existing uses of Cache for examples of how these are used. * PlaceholderCacheInterface - Used for making cache reservations, with entries that have a charge but no value. * BasicTypedCacheInterface<TValue> - Used for primary cache storage of objects of type TValue, which can be cleaned up with std::default_delete<TValue>. The role is provided by TValue::kCacheEntryRole or given in an optional template parameter. * FullTypedCacheInterface<TValue, TCreateContext> - Used for secondary cache compatible storage of objects of type TValue. In addition to BasicTypedCacheInterface constraints, we require TValue::ContentSlice() to return persistable data. This simplifies usage for the normal case of simple secondary cache compatibility (can give you a Slice to the data already in memory). In addition to TCreateContext performing the role of Cache::CreateContext, it is also expected to provide a factory function for creating TValue. * For each of these, there's a "Shared" version (e.g. FullTypedSharedCacheInterface) that holds a shared_ptr to the Cache, rather than assuming external ownership by holding only a raw `Cache*`. These interfaces introduce specific handle types for each interface instantiation, so that it's easy to see what kind of object is controlled by a handle. (Ultimately, this might not be worth the extra complexity, but it seems OK so far.) Note: I attempted to make the cache 'charge' automatically inferred from the cache object type, such as by expecting an ApproximateMemoryUsage() function, but this is not so clean because there are cases where we need to compute the charge ahead of time and don't want to re-compute it. ## block_cache.h This header is essentially the replacement for the old block_like_traits.h. It includes various things to support block cache access with typed_cache.h for block-based table. ## block_based_table_reader.cc Before this change, accessing the block cache here was an awkward mix of static polymorphism (template TBlocklike) and switch-case on a dynamic BlockType value. This change mostly unifies on static polymorphism, relying on minor hacks in block_cache.h to distinguish variants of Block. We still check BlockType in some places (especially for stats, which could be improved in follow-up work) but at least the BlockType is a static constant from the template parameter. (No more awkward partial redundancy between static and dynamic info.) This likely contributes to the overall performance improvement, but hasn't been tested in isolation. The other key source of simplification here is a more unified system of creating block cache objects: for directly populating from primary cache and for promotion from secondary cache. Both use BlockCreateContext, for context and for factory functions. ## block_based_table_builder.cc, cache_dump_load_impl.cc Before this change, warming caches was super ugly code. Both of these source files had switch statements to basically transition from the dynamic BlockType world to the static TBlocklike world. None of that mess is needed anymore as there's a new, untyped WarmInCache function that handles all the details just as promotion from SecondaryCache would. (Fixes `TODO akanksha: Dedup below code` in block_based_table_builder.cc.) ## Everything else Mostly just updating Cache users to use new typed APIs when reasonably possible, or changed Cache APIs when not.

And likely a small improvement from not reconstituting key for DeleterFn.

Refactor ShardedCache for more sharing, static polymorphism (#10801) Summary: The motivations for this change include * Free up space in ClockHandle so that we can add data for secondary cache handling while still keeping within single cache line (64 byte) size. * This change frees up space by eliminating the need for the `hash` field by making the fixed-size key itself a hash, using a 128-bit bijective (lossless) hash. * Generally more customizability of ShardedCache (such as hashing) without worrying about virtual call overheads * ShardedCache now uses static polymorphism (template) instead of dynamic polymorphism (virtual overrides) for the CacheShard. No obvious performance benefit is seen from the change (as mostly expected; most calls to virtual functions in CacheShard could already be optimized to static calls), but offers more flexibility without incurring the runtime cost of adhering to a common interface (without type parameters or static callbacks). * You'll also notice less `reinterpret_cast`ing and other boilerplate in the Cache implementations, as this can go in ShardedCache. More detail: * Don't have LRUCacheShard maintain `std::shared_ptr<SecondaryCache>` copies (extra refcount) when LRUCache can be in charge of keeping a `shared_ptr`. * Renamed `capacity_mutex_` to `config_mutex_` to better represent the scope of what it guards. * Some preparation for 64-bit hash and indexing in LRUCache, but didn't include the full change because of slight performance regression.

Revamp, optimize new experimental clock cache (#10626) Summary: * Consolidates most metadata into a single word per slot so that more can be accomplished with a single atomic update. In the common case, Lookup was previously about 4 atomic updates, now just 1 atomic update. Common case Release was previously 1 atomic read + 1 atomic update, now just 1 atomic update. * Eliminate spins / waits / yields, which likely threaten some "lock free" benefits. Compare-exchange loops are only used in explicit Erase, and strict_capacity_limit=true Insert. Eviction uses opportunistic compare- exchange. * Relaxes some aggressiveness and guarantees. For example, * Duplicate Inserts will sometimes go undetected and the shadow duplicate will age out with eviction. * In many cases, the older Inserted value for a given cache key will be kept (i.e. Insert does not support overwrite). * Entries explicitly erased (rather than evicted) might not be freed immediately in some rare cases. * With strict_capacity_limit=false, capacity limit is not tracked/enforced as precisely as LRUCache, but is self-correcting and should only deviate by a very small number of extra or fewer entries. * Use smaller "computed default" number of cache shards in many cases, because benefits to larger usage tracking / eviction pools outweigh the small cost of more lock-free atomic contention. The improvement in CPU and I/O is dramatic in some limit-memory cases. * Even without the sharding change, the eviction algorithm is likely more effective than LRU overall because it's more stateful, even though the "hot path" state tracking for it is essentially free with ref counting. It is like a generalized CLOCK with aging (see code comments). I don't have performance numbers showing a specific improvement, but in theory, for a Poisson access pattern to each block, keeping some state allows better estimation of time to next access (Poisson interval) than strict LRU. The bounded randomness in CLOCK can also reduce "cliff" effect for repeated range scans approaching and exceeding cache size. ## Hot path algorithm comparison Rough descriptions, focusing on number and kind of atomic operations: * Old `Lookup()` (2-5 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment internal ref count at slot If possible hit: Check flags atomic (and non-atomic fields) If cache hit: Three distinct updates to 'flags' atomic Increment refs for internal-to-external Return Decrement internal ref count while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * New `Lookup()` (1-2 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment acquire counter in meta word (optimistic) If visible entry (already read meta word): If match (read non-atomic fields): Return Else: Decrement acquire counter in meta word Else if invisible entry (rare, already read meta word): Decrement acquire counter in meta word while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * Old `Release()` (1 atomic update, conditional on atomic read, rarely more): ``` Read atomic ref count If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return Else: Decrement ref count ``` * New `Release()` (1 unconditional atomic update, rarely more): ``` Increment release counter in meta word If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return ``` ## Performance test setup Build DB with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` Test with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=${CACHE_MB}000000 -duration 60 -threads=$THREADS -statistics ``` Numbers on a single socket Skylake Xeon system with 48 hardware threads, DEBUG_LEVEL=0 PORTABLE=0.

New clock cache shows essentially perfect scaling up to number of physical cores (24), and then each hyperthreaded core adding about 1/4 the throughput of an additional physical core (see 48 thread case). Block cache miss rates (omitted above) are negligible across the board. With partitioned instead of full filters, the maximum speed-up vs. base is more like 2.5x rather than 5x.

This new clock cache only uses two shards for this configuration, and that helps to ensure that entries are part of a sufficiently big pool that their eviction order resembles the single-shard order.

Refactor (Hyper)ClockCache code (#10887) Summary: For clean-up and in preparation for some other anticipated changes, including * A new dynamically-scaling variant of HyperClockCache * SecondaryCache support for HyperClockCache This change does some refactoring for current and future code sharing and reusability. (Including follow-up on https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/10843) ## clock_cache.h * TBD whether new variant will be a HyperClockCache or use some other name, so namespace is just clock_cache for the family of structures. * A number of helper functions introduced and used. * Pre-emptively split ClockHandle (shared among lock-free clock cache variants) and HandleImpl (specific to a kind of Table), and introduce template to plug new Table implementation into ClockCacheShard. ## clock_cache.cc * Mostly using helper functions. Some things like `Rollback()` and `FreeDataMarkEmpty()` were not combined because `Rollback()` is Table-specific while `FreeDataMarkEmpty()` can be used with different table implementations. * Performance testing indicated that despite more opportunities for parallelism, making a local copy of handle data for processing after marking an entry empty was slower than doing that processing before marking the entry empty (but after marking it "under construction"), thus avoiding a few words of copying data. At least for now, this answers the "TODO? Delay freeing?" questions (no).

Refactor ShardedCache for more sharing, static polymorphism (#10801) Summary: The motivations for this change include * Free up space in ClockHandle so that we can add data for secondary cache handling while still keeping within single cache line (64 byte) size. * This change frees up space by eliminating the need for the `hash` field by making the fixed-size key itself a hash, using a 128-bit bijective (lossless) hash. * Generally more customizability of ShardedCache (such as hashing) without worrying about virtual call overheads * ShardedCache now uses static polymorphism (template) instead of dynamic polymorphism (virtual overrides) for the CacheShard. No obvious performance benefit is seen from the change (as mostly expected; most calls to virtual functions in CacheShard could already be optimized to static calls), but offers more flexibility without incurring the runtime cost of adhering to a common interface (without type parameters or static callbacks). * You'll also notice less `reinterpret_cast`ing and other boilerplate in the Cache implementations, as this can go in ShardedCache. More detail: * Don't have LRUCacheShard maintain `std::shared_ptr<SecondaryCache>` copies (extra refcount) when LRUCache can be in charge of keeping a `shared_ptr`. * Renamed `capacity_mutex_` to `config_mutex_` to better represent the scope of what it guards. * Some preparation for 64-bit hash and indexing in LRUCache, but didn't include the full change because of slight performance regression. Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/10801 Test Plan: Unit test updates were non-trivial because of major changes to the ClockCacheShard interface in handling of key vs. hash.

// Calls deleter (if non-null) on cache key and value
Major Cache refactoring, CPU efficiency improvement (#10975) Summary: This is several refactorings bundled into one to avoid having to incrementally re-modify uses of Cache several times. Overall, there are breaking changes to Cache class, and it becomes more of low-level interface for implementing caches, especially block cache. New internal APIs make using Cache cleaner than before, and more insulated from block cache evolution. Hopefully, this is the last really big block cache refactoring, because of rather effectively decoupling the implementations from the uses. This change also removes the EXPERIMENTAL designation on the SecondaryCache support in Cache. It seems reasonably mature at this point but still subject to change/evolution (as I warn in the API docs for Cache). The high-level motivation for this refactoring is to minimize code duplication / compounding complexity in adding SecondaryCache support to HyperClockCache (in a later PR). Other benefits listed below. * static_cast lines of code +29 -35 (net removed 6) * reinterpret_cast lines of code +6 -32 (net removed 26) ## cache.h and secondary_cache.h * Always use CacheItemHelper with entries instead of just a Deleter. There are several motivations / justifications: * Simpler for implementations to deal with just one Insert and one Lookup. * Simpler and more efficient implementation because we don't have to track which entries are using helpers and which are using deleters * Gets rid of hack to classify cache entries by their deleter. Instead, the CacheItemHelper includes a CacheEntryRole. This simplifies a lot of code (cache_entry_roles.h almost eliminated). Fixes https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/9428. * Makes it trivial to adjust SecondaryCache behavior based on kind of block (e.g. don't re-compress filter blocks). * It is arguably less convenient for many direct users of Cache, but direct users of Cache are now rare with introduction of typed_cache.h (below). * I considered and rejected an alternative approach in which we reduce customizability by assuming each secondary cache compatible value starts with a Slice referencing the uncompressed block contents (already true or mostly true), but we apparently intend to stack secondary caches. Saving an entry from a compressed secondary to a lower tier requires custom handling offered by SaveToCallback, etc. * Make CreateCallback part of the helper and introduce CreateContext to work with it (alternative to https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/10562). This cleans up the interface while still allowing context to be provided for loading/parsing values into primary cache. This model works for async lookup in BlockBasedTable reader (reader owns a CreateContext) under the assumption that it always waits on secondary cache operations to finish. (Otherwise, the CreateContext could be destroyed while async operation depending on it continues.) This likely contributes most to the observed performance improvement because it saves an std::function backed by a heap allocation. * Use char* for serialized data, e.g. in SaveToCallback, where void* was confusingly used. (We use `char*` for serialized byte data all over RocksDB, with many advantages over `void*`. `memcpy` etc. are legacy APIs that should not be mimicked.) * Add a type alias Cache::ObjectPtr = void*, so that we can better indicate the intent of the void* when it is to be the object associated with a Cache entry. Related: started (but did not complete) a refactoring to move away from "value" of a cache entry toward "object" or "obj". (It is confusing to call Cache a key-value store (like DB) when it is really storing arbitrary in-memory objects, not byte strings.) * Remove unnecessary key param from DeleterFn. This is good for efficiency in HyperClockCache, which does not directly store the cache key in memory. (Alternative to https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/10774) * Add allocator to Cache DeleterFn. This is a kind of future-proofing change in case we get more serious about using the Cache allocator for memory tracked by the Cache. Right now, only the uncompressed block contents are allocated using the allocator, and a pointer to that allocator is saved as part of the cached object so that the deleter can use it. (See CacheAllocationPtr.) If in the future we are able to "flatten out" our Cache objects some more, it would be good not to have to track the allocator as part of each object. * Removes legacy `ApplyToAllCacheEntries` and changes `ApplyToAllEntries` signature for Deleter->CacheItemHelper change. ## typed_cache.h Adds various "typed" interfaces to the Cache as internal APIs, so that most uses of Cache can use simple type safe code without casting and without explicit deleters, etc. Almost all of the non-test, non-glue code uses of Cache have been migrated. (Follow-up work: CompressedSecondaryCache deserves deeper attention to migrate.) This change expands RocksDB's internal usage of metaprogramming and SFINAE (https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/sfinae). The existing usages of Cache are divided up at a high level into these new interfaces. See updated existing uses of Cache for examples of how these are used. * PlaceholderCacheInterface - Used for making cache reservations, with entries that have a charge but no value. * BasicTypedCacheInterface<TValue> - Used for primary cache storage of objects of type TValue, which can be cleaned up with std::default_delete<TValue>. The role is provided by TValue::kCacheEntryRole or given in an optional template parameter. * FullTypedCacheInterface<TValue, TCreateContext> - Used for secondary cache compatible storage of objects of type TValue. In addition to BasicTypedCacheInterface constraints, we require TValue::ContentSlice() to return persistable data. This simplifies usage for the normal case of simple secondary cache compatibility (can give you a Slice to the data already in memory). In addition to TCreateContext performing the role of Cache::CreateContext, it is also expected to provide a factory function for creating TValue. * For each of these, there's a "Shared" version (e.g. FullTypedSharedCacheInterface) that holds a shared_ptr to the Cache, rather than assuming external ownership by holding only a raw `Cache*`. These interfaces introduce specific handle types for each interface instantiation, so that it's easy to see what kind of object is controlled by a handle. (Ultimately, this might not be worth the extra complexity, but it seems OK so far.) Note: I attempted to make the cache 'charge' automatically inferred from the cache object type, such as by expecting an ApproximateMemoryUsage() function, but this is not so clean because there are cases where we need to compute the charge ahead of time and don't want to re-compute it. ## block_cache.h This header is essentially the replacement for the old block_like_traits.h. It includes various things to support block cache access with typed_cache.h for block-based table. ## block_based_table_reader.cc Before this change, accessing the block cache here was an awkward mix of static polymorphism (template TBlocklike) and switch-case on a dynamic BlockType value. This change mostly unifies on static polymorphism, relying on minor hacks in block_cache.h to distinguish variants of Block. We still check BlockType in some places (especially for stats, which could be improved in follow-up work) but at least the BlockType is a static constant from the template parameter. (No more awkward partial redundancy between static and dynamic info.) This likely contributes to the overall performance improvement, but hasn't been tested in isolation. The other key source of simplification here is a more unified system of creating block cache objects: for directly populating from primary cache and for promotion from secondary cache. Both use BlockCreateContext, for context and for factory functions. ## block_based_table_builder.cc, cache_dump_load_impl.cc Before this change, warming caches was super ugly code. Both of these source files had switch statements to basically transition from the dynamic BlockType world to the static TBlocklike world. None of that mess is needed anymore as there's a new, untyped WarmInCache function that handles all the details just as promotion from SecondaryCache would. (Fixes `TODO akanksha: Dedup below code` in block_based_table_builder.cc.) ## Everything else Mostly just updating Cache users to use new typed APIs when reasonably possible, or changed Cache APIs when not.

The improvement for that is likely coming from much simplified code for providing context for secondary cache promotion (CreateCallback/CreateContext), and possibly from less branching in block_based_table_reader. And likely a small improvement from not reconstituting key for DeleterFn.

Refactor ShardedCache for more sharing, static polymorphism (#10801) Summary: The motivations for this change include * Free up space in ClockHandle so that we can add data for secondary cache handling while still keeping within single cache line (64 byte) size. * This change frees up space by eliminating the need for the `hash` field by making the fixed-size key itself a hash, using a 128-bit bijective (lossless) hash. * Generally more customizability of ShardedCache (such as hashing) without worrying about virtual call overheads * ShardedCache now uses static polymorphism (template) instead of dynamic polymorphism (virtual overrides) for the CacheShard. No obvious performance benefit is seen from the change (as mostly expected; most calls to virtual functions in CacheShard could already be optimized to static calls), but offers more flexibility without incurring the runtime cost of adhering to a common interface (without type parameters or static callbacks). * You'll also notice less `reinterpret_cast`ing and other boilerplate in the Cache implementations, as this can go in ShardedCache. More detail: * Don't have LRUCacheShard maintain `std::shared_ptr<SecondaryCache>` copies (extra refcount) when LRUCache can be in charge of keeping a `shared_ptr`. * Renamed `capacity_mutex_` to `config_mutex_` to better represent the scope of what it guards. * Some preparation for 64-bit hash and indexing in LRUCache, but didn't include the full change because of slight performance regression. Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/10801 Test Plan: Unit test updates were non-trivial because of major changes to the ClockCacheShard interface in handling of key vs. hash.

Revamp, optimize new experimental clock cache (#10626) Summary: * Consolidates most metadata into a single word per slot so that more can be accomplished with a single atomic update. In the common case, Lookup was previously about 4 atomic updates, now just 1 atomic update. Common case Release was previously 1 atomic read + 1 atomic update, now just 1 atomic update. * Eliminate spins / waits / yields, which likely threaten some "lock free" benefits. Compare-exchange loops are only used in explicit Erase, and strict_capacity_limit=true Insert. Eviction uses opportunistic compare- exchange. * Relaxes some aggressiveness and guarantees. For example, * Duplicate Inserts will sometimes go undetected and the shadow duplicate will age out with eviction. * In many cases, the older Inserted value for a given cache key will be kept (i.e. Insert does not support overwrite). * Entries explicitly erased (rather than evicted) might not be freed immediately in some rare cases. * With strict_capacity_limit=false, capacity limit is not tracked/enforced as precisely as LRUCache, but is self-correcting and should only deviate by a very small number of extra or fewer entries. * Use smaller "computed default" number of cache shards in many cases, because benefits to larger usage tracking / eviction pools outweigh the small cost of more lock-free atomic contention. The improvement in CPU and I/O is dramatic in some limit-memory cases. * Even without the sharding change, the eviction algorithm is likely more effective than LRU overall because it's more stateful, even though the "hot path" state tracking for it is essentially free with ref counting. It is like a generalized CLOCK with aging (see code comments). I don't have performance numbers showing a specific improvement, but in theory, for a Poisson access pattern to each block, keeping some state allows better estimation of time to next access (Poisson interval) than strict LRU. The bounded randomness in CLOCK can also reduce "cliff" effect for repeated range scans approaching and exceeding cache size. ## Hot path algorithm comparison Rough descriptions, focusing on number and kind of atomic operations: * Old `Lookup()` (2-5 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment internal ref count at slot If possible hit: Check flags atomic (and non-atomic fields) If cache hit: Three distinct updates to 'flags' atomic Increment refs for internal-to-external Return Decrement internal ref count while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * New `Lookup()` (1-2 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment acquire counter in meta word (optimistic) If visible entry (already read meta word): If match (read non-atomic fields): Return Else: Decrement acquire counter in meta word Else if invisible entry (rare, already read meta word): Decrement acquire counter in meta word while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * Old `Release()` (1 atomic update, conditional on atomic read, rarely more): ``` Read atomic ref count If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return Else: Decrement ref count ``` * New `Release()` (1 unconditional atomic update, rarely more): ``` Increment release counter in meta word If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return ``` ## Performance test setup Build DB with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` Test with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=${CACHE_MB}000000 -duration 60 -threads=$THREADS -statistics ``` Numbers on a single socket Skylake Xeon system with 48 hardware threads, DEBUG_LEVEL=0 PORTABLE=0.

Mutex-based implementation quickly becomes contention-limited. New clock cache shows essentially perfect scaling up to number of physical cores (24), and then each hyperthreaded core adding about 1/4 the throughput of an additional physical core (see 48 thread case). Block cache miss rates (omitted above) are negligible across the board. With partitioned instead of full filters, the maximum speed-up vs. base is more like 2.5x rather than 5x.

This new clock cache only uses two shards for this configuration, and that helps to ensure that entries are part of a sufficiently big pool that their eviction order resembles the single-shard order.

Refactor (Hyper)ClockCache code (#10887) Summary: For clean-up and in preparation for some other anticipated changes, including * A new dynamically-scaling variant of HyperClockCache * SecondaryCache support for HyperClockCache This change does some refactoring for current and future code sharing and reusability. (Including follow-up on https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/10843) ## clock_cache.h * TBD whether new variant will be a HyperClockCache or use some other name, so namespace is just clock_cache for the family of structures. * A number of helper functions introduced and used. * Pre-emptively split ClockHandle (shared among lock-free clock cache variants) and HandleImpl (specific to a kind of Table), and introduce template to plug new Table implementation into ClockCacheShard. ## clock_cache.cc * Mostly using helper functions. Some things like `Rollback()` and `FreeDataMarkEmpty()` were not combined because `Rollback()` is Table-specific while `FreeDataMarkEmpty()` can be used with different table implementations. * Performance testing indicated that despite more opportunities for parallelism, making a local copy of handle data for processing after marking an entry empty was slower than doing that processing before marking the entry empty (but after marking it "under construction"), thus avoiding a few words of copying data. At least for now, this answers the "TODO? Delay freeing?" questions (no). Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/10887 Test Plan: fixed a unit testing gap; other minor test updates for refactoring No functionality change ## Performance Same setup as https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/10801: Before: `readrandom [AVG 81 runs] : 627992 (± 5124) ops/sec` After: `readrandom [AVG 81 runs] : 637512 (± 4866) ops/sec` I've been getting some inconsistent results on restarts like the system is not being fair to the two processes, so I'm not sure there's such a real difference.

Revamp, optimize new experimental clock cache (#10626) Summary: * Consolidates most metadata into a single word per slot so that more can be accomplished with a single atomic update. In the common case, Lookup was previously about 4 atomic updates, now just 1 atomic update. Common case Release was previously 1 atomic read + 1 atomic update, now just 1 atomic update. * Eliminate spins / waits / yields, which likely threaten some "lock free" benefits. Compare-exchange loops are only used in explicit Erase, and strict_capacity_limit=true Insert. Eviction uses opportunistic compare- exchange. * Relaxes some aggressiveness and guarantees. For example, * Duplicate Inserts will sometimes go undetected and the shadow duplicate will age out with eviction. * In many cases, the older Inserted value for a given cache key will be kept (i.e. Insert does not support overwrite). * Entries explicitly erased (rather than evicted) might not be freed immediately in some rare cases. * With strict_capacity_limit=false, capacity limit is not tracked/enforced as precisely as LRUCache, but is self-correcting and should only deviate by a very small number of extra or fewer entries. * Use smaller "computed default" number of cache shards in many cases, because benefits to larger usage tracking / eviction pools outweigh the small cost of more lock-free atomic contention. The improvement in CPU and I/O is dramatic in some limit-memory cases. * Even without the sharding change, the eviction algorithm is likely more effective than LRU overall because it's more stateful, even though the "hot path" state tracking for it is essentially free with ref counting. It is like a generalized CLOCK with aging (see code comments). I don't have performance numbers showing a specific improvement, but in theory, for a Poisson access pattern to each block, keeping some state allows better estimation of time to next access (Poisson interval) than strict LRU. The bounded randomness in CLOCK can also reduce "cliff" effect for repeated range scans approaching and exceeding cache size. ## Hot path algorithm comparison Rough descriptions, focusing on number and kind of atomic operations: * Old `Lookup()` (2-5 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment internal ref count at slot If possible hit: Check flags atomic (and non-atomic fields) If cache hit: Three distinct updates to 'flags' atomic Increment refs for internal-to-external Return Decrement internal ref count while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * New `Lookup()` (1-2 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment acquire counter in meta word (optimistic) If visible entry (already read meta word): If match (read non-atomic fields): Return Else: Decrement acquire counter in meta word Else if invisible entry (rare, already read meta word): Decrement acquire counter in meta word while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * Old `Release()` (1 atomic update, conditional on atomic read, rarely more): ``` Read atomic ref count If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return Else: Decrement ref count ``` * New `Release()` (1 unconditional atomic update, rarely more): ``` Increment release counter in meta word If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return ``` ## Performance test setup Build DB with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` Test with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=${CACHE_MB}000000 -duration 60 -threads=$THREADS -statistics ``` Numbers on a single socket Skylake Xeon system with 48 hardware threads, DEBUG_LEVEL=0 PORTABLE=0.

Mutex-based implementation quickly becomes contention-limited. New clock cache shows essentially perfect scaling up to number of physical cores (24), and then each hyperthreaded core adding about 1/4 the throughput of an additional physical core (see 48 thread case). Block cache miss rates (omitted above) are negligible across the board. With partitioned instead of full filters, the maximum speed-up vs. base is more like 2.5x rather than 5x.

IMPORTANT: The previous generation experimental clock cache appears to hit a serious bottleneck in the higher thread count configurations, presumably due to some of its waiting functionality. (The same bottleneck is not seen with partitioned index+filters.)

This new clock cache only uses two shards for this configuration, and that helps to ensure that entries are part of a sufficiently big pool that their eviction order resembles the single-shard order.

Revamp, optimize new experimental clock cache (#10626) Summary: * Consolidates most metadata into a single word per slot so that more can be accomplished with a single atomic update. In the common case, Lookup was previously about 4 atomic updates, now just 1 atomic update. Common case Release was previously 1 atomic read + 1 atomic update, now just 1 atomic update. * Eliminate spins / waits / yields, which likely threaten some "lock free" benefits. Compare-exchange loops are only used in explicit Erase, and strict_capacity_limit=true Insert. Eviction uses opportunistic compare- exchange. * Relaxes some aggressiveness and guarantees. For example, * Duplicate Inserts will sometimes go undetected and the shadow duplicate will age out with eviction. * In many cases, the older Inserted value for a given cache key will be kept (i.e. Insert does not support overwrite). * Entries explicitly erased (rather than evicted) might not be freed immediately in some rare cases. * With strict_capacity_limit=false, capacity limit is not tracked/enforced as precisely as LRUCache, but is self-correcting and should only deviate by a very small number of extra or fewer entries. * Use smaller "computed default" number of cache shards in many cases, because benefits to larger usage tracking / eviction pools outweigh the small cost of more lock-free atomic contention. The improvement in CPU and I/O is dramatic in some limit-memory cases. * Even without the sharding change, the eviction algorithm is likely more effective than LRU overall because it's more stateful, even though the "hot path" state tracking for it is essentially free with ref counting. It is like a generalized CLOCK with aging (see code comments). I don't have performance numbers showing a specific improvement, but in theory, for a Poisson access pattern to each block, keeping some state allows better estimation of time to next access (Poisson interval) than strict LRU. The bounded randomness in CLOCK can also reduce "cliff" effect for repeated range scans approaching and exceeding cache size. ## Hot path algorithm comparison Rough descriptions, focusing on number and kind of atomic operations: * Old `Lookup()` (2-5 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment internal ref count at slot If possible hit: Check flags atomic (and non-atomic fields) If cache hit: Three distinct updates to 'flags' atomic Increment refs for internal-to-external Return Decrement internal ref count while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * New `Lookup()` (1-2 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment acquire counter in meta word (optimistic) If visible entry (already read meta word): If match (read non-atomic fields): Return Else: Decrement acquire counter in meta word Else if invisible entry (rare, already read meta word): Decrement acquire counter in meta word while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * Old `Release()` (1 atomic update, conditional on atomic read, rarely more): ``` Read atomic ref count If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return Else: Decrement ref count ``` * New `Release()` (1 unconditional atomic update, rarely more): ``` Increment release counter in meta word If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return ``` ## Performance test setup Build DB with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` Test with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=${CACHE_MB}000000 -duration 60 -threads=$THREADS -statistics ``` Numbers on a single socket Skylake Xeon system with 48 hardware threads, DEBUG_LEVEL=0 PORTABLE=0.

Mutex-based implementation quickly becomes contention-limited. New clock cache shows essentially perfect scaling up to number of physical cores (24), and then each hyperthreaded core adding about 1/4 the throughput of an additional physical core (see 48 thread case). Block cache miss rates (omitted above) are negligible across the board. With partitioned instead of full filters, the maximum speed-up vs. base is more like 2.5x rather than 5x.

This new clock cache only uses two shards for this configuration, and that helps to ensure that entries are part of a sufficiently big pool that their eviction order resembles the single-shard order.

Revamp, optimize new experimental clock cache (#10626) Summary: * Consolidates most metadata into a single word per slot so that more can be accomplished with a single atomic update. In the common case, Lookup was previously about 4 atomic updates, now just 1 atomic update. Common case Release was previously 1 atomic read + 1 atomic update, now just 1 atomic update. * Eliminate spins / waits / yields, which likely threaten some "lock free" benefits. Compare-exchange loops are only used in explicit Erase, and strict_capacity_limit=true Insert. Eviction uses opportunistic compare- exchange. * Relaxes some aggressiveness and guarantees. For example, * Duplicate Inserts will sometimes go undetected and the shadow duplicate will age out with eviction. * In many cases, the older Inserted value for a given cache key will be kept (i.e. Insert does not support overwrite). * Entries explicitly erased (rather than evicted) might not be freed immediately in some rare cases. * With strict_capacity_limit=false, capacity limit is not tracked/enforced as precisely as LRUCache, but is self-correcting and should only deviate by a very small number of extra or fewer entries. * Use smaller "computed default" number of cache shards in many cases, because benefits to larger usage tracking / eviction pools outweigh the small cost of more lock-free atomic contention. The improvement in CPU and I/O is dramatic in some limit-memory cases. * Even without the sharding change, the eviction algorithm is likely more effective than LRU overall because it's more stateful, even though the "hot path" state tracking for it is essentially free with ref counting. It is like a generalized CLOCK with aging (see code comments). I don't have performance numbers showing a specific improvement, but in theory, for a Poisson access pattern to each block, keeping some state allows better estimation of time to next access (Poisson interval) than strict LRU. The bounded randomness in CLOCK can also reduce "cliff" effect for repeated range scans approaching and exceeding cache size. ## Hot path algorithm comparison Rough descriptions, focusing on number and kind of atomic operations: * Old `Lookup()` (2-5 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment internal ref count at slot If possible hit: Check flags atomic (and non-atomic fields) If cache hit: Three distinct updates to 'flags' atomic Increment refs for internal-to-external Return Decrement internal ref count while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * New `Lookup()` (1-2 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment acquire counter in meta word (optimistic) If visible entry (already read meta word): If match (read non-atomic fields): Return Else: Decrement acquire counter in meta word Else if invisible entry (rare, already read meta word): Decrement acquire counter in meta word while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * Old `Release()` (1 atomic update, conditional on atomic read, rarely more): ``` Read atomic ref count If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return Else: Decrement ref count ``` * New `Release()` (1 unconditional atomic update, rarely more): ``` Increment release counter in meta word If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return ``` ## Performance test setup Build DB with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` Test with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=${CACHE_MB}000000 -duration 60 -threads=$THREADS -statistics ``` Numbers on a single socket Skylake Xeon system with 48 hardware threads, DEBUG_LEVEL=0 PORTABLE=0. Very similar story on a dual socket system with 80 hardware threads. Using (every 2nd) Fibonacci MB cache sizes to sample the territory between powers of two.

Mutex-based implementation quickly becomes contention-limited. New clock cache shows essentially perfect scaling up to number of physical cores (24), and then each hyperthreaded core adding about 1/4 the throughput of an additional physical core (see 48 thread case). Block cache miss rates (omitted above) are negligible across the board. With partitioned instead of full filters, the maximum speed-up vs. base is more like 2.5x rather than 5x.

This new clock cache only uses two shards for this configuration, and that helps to ensure that entries are part of a sufficiently big pool that their eviction order resembles the single-shard order.

Revamp, optimize new experimental clock cache (#10626) Summary: * Consolidates most metadata into a single word per slot so that more can be accomplished with a single atomic update. In the common case, Lookup was previously about 4 atomic updates, now just 1 atomic update. Common case Release was previously 1 atomic read + 1 atomic update, now just 1 atomic update. * Eliminate spins / waits / yields, which likely threaten some "lock free" benefits. Compare-exchange loops are only used in explicit Erase, and strict_capacity_limit=true Insert. Eviction uses opportunistic compare- exchange. * Relaxes some aggressiveness and guarantees. For example, * Duplicate Inserts will sometimes go undetected and the shadow duplicate will age out with eviction. * In many cases, the older Inserted value for a given cache key will be kept (i.e. Insert does not support overwrite). * Entries explicitly erased (rather than evicted) might not be freed immediately in some rare cases. * With strict_capacity_limit=false, capacity limit is not tracked/enforced as precisely as LRUCache, but is self-correcting and should only deviate by a very small number of extra or fewer entries. * Use smaller "computed default" number of cache shards in many cases, because benefits to larger usage tracking / eviction pools outweigh the small cost of more lock-free atomic contention. The improvement in CPU and I/O is dramatic in some limit-memory cases. * Even without the sharding change, the eviction algorithm is likely more effective than LRU overall because it's more stateful, even though the "hot path" state tracking for it is essentially free with ref counting. It is like a generalized CLOCK with aging (see code comments). I don't have performance numbers showing a specific improvement, but in theory, for a Poisson access pattern to each block, keeping some state allows better estimation of time to next access (Poisson interval) than strict LRU. The bounded randomness in CLOCK can also reduce "cliff" effect for repeated range scans approaching and exceeding cache size. ## Hot path algorithm comparison Rough descriptions, focusing on number and kind of atomic operations: * Old `Lookup()` (2-5 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment internal ref count at slot If possible hit: Check flags atomic (and non-atomic fields) If cache hit: Three distinct updates to 'flags' atomic Increment refs for internal-to-external Return Decrement internal ref count while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * New `Lookup()` (1-2 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment acquire counter in meta word (optimistic) If visible entry (already read meta word): If match (read non-atomic fields): Return Else: Decrement acquire counter in meta word Else if invisible entry (rare, already read meta word): Decrement acquire counter in meta word while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * Old `Release()` (1 atomic update, conditional on atomic read, rarely more): ``` Read atomic ref count If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return Else: Decrement ref count ``` * New `Release()` (1 unconditional atomic update, rarely more): ``` Increment release counter in meta word If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return ``` ## Performance test setup Build DB with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` Test with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=${CACHE_MB}000000 -duration 60 -threads=$THREADS -statistics ``` Numbers on a single socket Skylake Xeon system with 48 hardware threads, DEBUG_LEVEL=0 PORTABLE=0. Very similar story on a dual socket system with 80 hardware threads. Using (every 2nd) Fibonacci MB cache sizes to sample the territory between powers of two.

Mutex-based implementation quickly becomes contention-limited. New clock cache shows essentially perfect scaling up to number of physical cores (24), and then each hyperthreaded core adding about 1/4 the throughput of an additional physical core (see 48 thread case). Block cache miss rates (omitted above) are negligible across the board. With partitioned instead of full filters, the maximum speed-up vs. base is more like 2.5x rather than 5x.

This new clock cache only uses two shards for this configuration, and that helps to ensure that entries are part of a sufficiently big pool that their eviction order resembles the single-shard order.

Cap eviction effort (CPU under stress) in HyperClockCache (#12141) Summary: HyperClockCache is intended to mitigate performance problems under stress conditions (as well as optimizing average-case parallel performance). In LRUCache, the biggest such problem is lock contention when one or a small number of cache entries becomes particularly hot. Regardless of cache sharding, accesses to any particular cache entry are linearized against a single mutex, which is held while each access updates the LRU list. All HCC variants are fully lock/wait-free for accessing blocks already in the cache, which fully mitigates this contention problem. However, HCC (and CLOCK in general) can exhibit extremely degraded performance under a different stress condition: when no (or almost no) entries in a cache shard are evictable (they are pinned). Unlike LRU which can find any evictable entries immediately (at the cost of more coordination / synchronization on each access), CLOCK has to search for evictable entries. Under the right conditions (almost exclusively MB-scale caches not GB-scale), the CPU cost of each cache miss could fall off a cliff and bog down the whole system. To effectively mitigate this problem (IMHO), I'm introducing a new default behavior and tuning parameter for HCC, `eviction_effort_cap`. See the comments on the new config parameter in the public API. Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/12141 Test Plan: unit test included ## Performance test We can use cache_bench to validate no regression (CPU and memory) in normal operation, and to measure change in behavior when cache is almost entirely pinned. (TODO: I'm not sure why I had to get the pinned ratio parameter well over 1.0 to see truly bad performance, but the behavior is there.) Build with `make DEBUG_LEVEL=0 USE_CLANG=1 PORTABLE=0 cache_bench`. We also set MALLOC_CONF="narenas:1" for all these runs to essentially remove jemalloc variances from the results, so that the max RSS given by /usr/bin/time is essentially ideal (assuming the allocator minimizes fragmentation and other memory overheads well).

Automatic table sizing for HyperClockCache (AutoHCC) (#11738) Summary: This change add an experimental next-generation HyperClockCache (HCC) with automatic sizing of the underlying hash table. Both the existing version (stable) and the new version (experimental for now) of HCC are available depending on whether an estimated average entry charge is provided in HyperClockCacheOptions. Internally, we call the two implementations AutoHyperClockCache (new) and FixedHyperClockCache (existing). The performance characteristics and much of the underlying logic are similar enough that AutoHCC is likely to make FixedHCC obsolete, and so it's best considered an evolution of the same technology or solution rather than an alternative. More specifically, both implementations share essentially the same logic for managing the state of individual entries in the cache, including metadata for reference counting and counting clocks for eviction. This metadata, which I like to call the "low-level HCC protocol," includes a read-write lock on entries, but relaxed consistency requirements on the cache (e.g. allowing rare duplication) means high-level cache operations never wait for these low-level per-entry locks. FixedHCC is fully wait-free. AutoHCC is different in how entries are indexed into an efficient hash table. AutoHCC is "essentially wait-free" as there is no pattern of typical high-level operations on a large cache that can lead to one thread waiting on another to complete some work, though it can happen in some unusual/unlucky cases, or atypical uses such as erasing specific cache keys. Table growth and entry reclamation is more complex in AutoHCC compared to FixedHCC, so uses some localized locking to manage that. AutoHCC uses linear hashing to grow the table as needed, with low latency and to a precise size. AutoHCC depends on anonymous mmap support from the OS (currently verified working on Linux, MacOS, and Windows) to allow the array underlying a hash table to grow in place without wasting resident memory on space reserved but unused. AutoHCC uses a form of chaining while FixedHCC uses open addressing and double hashing. More specifics: * In developing this PR, a rare availability bug (minor) was noticed in the existing HCC implementation of Release()+erase_if_last_ref, which is now inherited into AutoHCC. Fixing this without a performance regression will not be simple, so is left for follow-up work. * Some existing unit tests required adjustment of operational parameters or conditions to work with the new behaviors of AutoHCC. A number of bugs were found and fixed in the validation process, including getting unit tests in good working order. * Added an option to cache_bench, `-degenerate_hash_bits` for correctness stress testing described below. For this, the tool uses the reverse-engineered hash function for HCC to generate keys in which the specified number of hash bits, in critical positions, have a fixed value. Essentially each degenerate hash bit will half the number of chain heads utilized and double the average chain length. Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/11738 Test Plan: unit tests updated, and already added to db crash test. Also ## Correctness The code includes generous assertions to check for unexpected states, especially at destruction time, so should be able to detect critical concurrency bugs. Less serious "availability bugs" in which cache data is hidden or cleanly lost are more difficult to detect, but also less scary for data correctness (as long as performance is good and the design is sound). In average operation, the structure is extremely low stress and low contention (see next section) so stressing the corner case logic requires artificially stressing the operating conditions. First, we keep the structure small to increase the number of threads hitting the same chain or entry, and just one cache shard. Second, we artificially degrade the hashing so that chains are much longer than typical, using the new `-degenerate_hash_bits` option to cache_bench. Third, we re-create the structure from scratch frequently in order to exercise the Grow logic repeatedly and to get the benefit of the consistency checks in the structure's destructor in debug builds. For cache_bench this also means disabling the single-threaded "populate cache" step (normally used for steady state performance testing). And of course use many more threads than cores to have many preemptions. An effective test for working out bugs was this (using debug build of course): ``` while ./cache_bench -cache_type=auto_hyper_clock_cache -histograms=0 -cache_size=8000000 -threads=100 -populate_cache=0 -ops_per_thread=10000 -degenerate_hash_bits=6 -num_shard_bits=0; do :; done ``` Or even smaller cases. This setup has around 27 utilized chains, with around 35 entries each, and yield-waits more than 1 million times per second (very high contention; see next section). I have let this run for hours searching for any lingering issues. I've also run cache_bench under ASAN, UBSAN, and TSAN. ## Essentially wait free There is a counter for number of yield() calls when one thread is waiting on another. When we pre-populate the structure in a single thread, ``` ./cache_bench -cache_type=auto_hyper_clock_cache -histograms=0 -populate_cache=1 -ops_per_thread=200000 2>&1 | grep Yield ``` We see something on the order of 1 yield call per second across 16 threads, even when we load the system other other jobs (parallel compilation). With -populate_cache=0, there are more yield opportunities with parallel table growth. On an otherwise unloaded system, we still see very small (single digit) yield counts, with a chance of getting into the thousands, and getting into 10s of thousands per second during table growth phase if the system is loaded with other jobs. However, I am not worried about this if performance is still good (see next section). ## Overall performance Although cache_bench initially suggested performance very close to FixedHCC, there was a very noticeable performance hit under a db_bench setup like used in validating https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/10626. Much of the difference has been reduced by optimizing Lookup with a "naive" pass that will almost always find entries quickly, and only falling back to the careful Lookup algorithm when not found in the first pass. Setups (chosen to be sensitive to block cache performance), and compiled with USE_CLANG=1 JEMALLOC=1 PORTABLE=0 DEBUG_LEVEL=0: ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm base/db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` ### No regression on FixedHCC Running before & after builds at the same time on a 48 core machine. ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm /usr/bin/time ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom[-X10],block_cache_entry_stats,cache_report_problems -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=610000000 -duration 20 -threads=24 -cache_type=fixed_hyper_clock_cache -seed=1234 ``` Before: readrandom [AVG 10 runs] : 847234 (± 8150) ops/sec; 59.2 (± 0.6) MB/sec 703MB max RSS After: readrandom [AVG 10 runs] : 851021 (± 7929) ops/sec; 59.5 (± 0.6) MB/sec 706MB max RSS Probably no material difference. ### Single-threaded performance Using `[-X2]` and `-threads=1` and `-duration=30`, running all three at the same time: lru_cache: 55100 ops/sec, then 55862 ops/sec (627MB max RSS) fixed_hyper_clock_cache: 60496 ops/sec, then 61231 ops/sec (626MB max RSS) auto_hyper_clock_cache: 47560 ops/sec, then 56081 ops/sec (626MB max RSS) So AutoHCC has more ramp-up cost in the first pass as the cache grows to the appropriate size. (In single-threaded operation, the parallelizability and per-op low latency of table growth is overall slower.) However, once up to size, its performance is comparable to LRUCache. FixedHCC's lean operations still win overall when a good estimate is available. If we look at HCC table stats, we can see that this configuration is not favorable to AutoHCC (and I have verified that other memory sizes do not yield substantially different results, until shards are under-sized for the full filters): FixedHCC: Slot occupancy stats: Overall 47% (124991/262144), Min/Max/Window = 28%/64%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 17/22 AutoHCC: Slot occupancy stats: Overall 59% (125781/209682), Min/Max/Window = 43%/82%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 76/16 Head occupancy stats: Overall 43% (92259/209682), Min/Max/Window = 24%/74%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 19/26 Entries at home count: 53350 FixedHCC configuration is relatively good for speed, and not ideal for space utilization. As is typical, AutoHCC has tighter control on metadata usage (209682 x 64 bytes rather than 262144 x 64 bytes), and the higher load factor is slightly worse for speed. LRUCache also has more metadata usage, at 199680 x 96 bytes of tracked metadata (plus roughly another 10% of that untracked in the head pointers), and that metadata is subject to fragmentation. ### Parallel performance, high hit rate Now using `[-X10]` and `-threads=10`, all three at the same time lru_cache: [AVG 10 runs] : 263629 (± 1425) ops/sec; 18.4 (± 0.1) MB/sec 655MB max RSS, 97.1% cache hit rate fixed_hyper_clock_cache: [AVG 10 runs] : 479590 (± 8114) ops/sec; 33.5 (± 0.6) MB/sec 651MB max RSS, 97.1% cache hit rate auto_hyper_clock_cache: [AVG 10 runs] : 418687 (± 5915) ops/sec; 29.3 (± 0.4) MB/sec 657MB max RSS, 97.1% cache hit rate Even with just 10-way parallelism for each cache (though 30+/48 cores busy overall), LRUCache is already showing performance degradation, while AutoHCC is in the neighborhood of FixedHCC. And that brings us to the question of how AutoHCC holds up under extreme parallelism, so now independent runs with `-threads=100` (overloading 48 cores). lru_cache: 438613 ops/sec, 827MB max RSS fixed_hyper_clock_cache: 1651310 ops/sec, 812MB max RSS auto_hyper_clock_cache: 1505875 ops/sec, 821MB max RSS (Yield count: 1089 over 30s) Clearly, AutoHCC holds up extremely well under extreme parallelism, even closing some of the modest performance gap with FixedHCC. ### Parallel performance, low hit rate To get down to roughly 50% cache hit rate, we use `-cache_index_and_filter_blocks=0 -cache_size=1650000000` with `-threads=10`. Here the extra cost of running counting clock eviction, especially on the chains of AutoHCC, are evident, especially with the lower contention of cache_index_and_filter_blocks=0: lru_cache: 725231 ops/sec, 1770MB max RSS, 51.3% hit rate fixed_hyper_clock_cache: 638620 ops/sec, 1765MB max RSS, 50.2% hit rate auto_hyper_clock_cache: 541018 ops/sec, 1777MB max RSS, 50.8% hit rate Reviewed By: jowlyzhang Differential Revision: D48784755 Pulled By: pdillinger fbshipit-source-id: e79813dc087474ac427637dd282a14fa3011a6e4

Cap eviction effort (CPU under stress) in HyperClockCache (#12141) Summary: HyperClockCache is intended to mitigate performance problems under stress conditions (as well as optimizing average-case parallel performance). In LRUCache, the biggest such problem is lock contention when one or a small number of cache entries becomes particularly hot. Regardless of cache sharding, accesses to any particular cache entry are linearized against a single mutex, which is held while each access updates the LRU list. All HCC variants are fully lock/wait-free for accessing blocks already in the cache, which fully mitigates this contention problem. However, HCC (and CLOCK in general) can exhibit extremely degraded performance under a different stress condition: when no (or almost no) entries in a cache shard are evictable (they are pinned). Unlike LRU which can find any evictable entries immediately (at the cost of more coordination / synchronization on each access), CLOCK has to search for evictable entries. Under the right conditions (almost exclusively MB-scale caches not GB-scale), the CPU cost of each cache miss could fall off a cliff and bog down the whole system. To effectively mitigate this problem (IMHO), I'm introducing a new default behavior and tuning parameter for HCC, `eviction_effort_cap`. See the comments on the new config parameter in the public API. Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/12141 Test Plan: unit test included ## Performance test We can use cache_bench to validate no regression (CPU and memory) in normal operation, and to measure change in behavior when cache is almost entirely pinned.

Cap eviction effort (CPU under stress) in HyperClockCache (#12141) Summary: HyperClockCache is intended to mitigate performance problems under stress conditions (as well as optimizing average-case parallel performance). In LRUCache, the biggest such problem is lock contention when one or a small number of cache entries becomes particularly hot.

All HCC variants are fully lock/wait-free for accessing blocks already in the cache, which fully mitigates this contention problem.

Automatic table sizing for HyperClockCache (AutoHCC) (#11738) Summary: This change add an experimental next-generation HyperClockCache (HCC) with automatic sizing of the underlying hash table. Both the existing version (stable) and the new version (experimental for now) of HCC are available depending on whether an estimated average entry charge is provided in HyperClockCacheOptions. Internally, we call the two implementations AutoHyperClockCache (new) and FixedHyperClockCache (existing). The performance characteristics and much of the underlying logic are similar enough that AutoHCC is likely to make FixedHCC obsolete, and so it's best considered an evolution of the same technology or solution rather than an alternative. More specifically, both implementations share essentially the same logic for managing the state of individual entries in the cache, including metadata for reference counting and counting clocks for eviction. This metadata, which I like to call the "low-level HCC protocol," includes a read-write lock on entries, but relaxed consistency requirements on the cache (e.g. allowing rare duplication) means high-level cache operations never wait for these low-level per-entry locks. FixedHCC is fully wait-free. AutoHCC is different in how entries are indexed into an efficient hash table. AutoHCC is "essentially wait-free" as there is no pattern of typical high-level operations on a large cache that can lead to one thread waiting on another to complete some work, though it can happen in some unusual/unlucky cases, or atypical uses such as erasing specific cache keys. Table growth and entry reclamation is more complex in AutoHCC compared to FixedHCC, so uses some localized locking to manage that. AutoHCC uses linear hashing to grow the table as needed, with low latency and to a precise size. AutoHCC depends on anonymous mmap support from the OS (currently verified working on Linux, MacOS, and Windows) to allow the array underlying a hash table to grow in place without wasting resident memory on space reserved but unused. AutoHCC uses a form of chaining while FixedHCC uses open addressing and double hashing. More specifics: * In developing this PR, a rare availability bug (minor) was noticed in the existing HCC implementation of Release()+erase_if_last_ref, which is now inherited into AutoHCC. Fixing this without a performance regression will not be simple, so is left for follow-up work. * Some existing unit tests required adjustment of operational parameters or conditions to work with the new behaviors of AutoHCC. A number of bugs were found and fixed in the validation process, including getting unit tests in good working order. * Added an option to cache_bench, `-degenerate_hash_bits` for correctness stress testing described below. For this, the tool uses the reverse-engineered hash function for HCC to generate keys in which the specified number of hash bits, in critical positions, have a fixed value. Essentially each degenerate hash bit will half the number of chain heads utilized and double the average chain length. Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/11738 Test Plan: unit tests updated, and already added to db crash test. Also ## Correctness The code includes generous assertions to check for unexpected states, especially at destruction time, so should be able to detect critical concurrency bugs. Less serious "availability bugs" in which cache data is hidden or cleanly lost are more difficult to detect, but also less scary for data correctness (as long as performance is good and the design is sound). In average operation, the structure is extremely low stress and low contention (see next section) so stressing the corner case logic requires artificially stressing the operating conditions. First, we keep the structure small to increase the number of threads hitting the same chain or entry, and just one cache shard. Second, we artificially degrade the hashing so that chains are much longer than typical, using the new `-degenerate_hash_bits` option to cache_bench. Third, we re-create the structure from scratch frequently in order to exercise the Grow logic repeatedly and to get the benefit of the consistency checks in the structure's destructor in debug builds. For cache_bench this also means disabling the single-threaded "populate cache" step (normally used for steady state performance testing). And of course use many more threads than cores to have many preemptions. An effective test for working out bugs was this (using debug build of course): ``` while ./cache_bench -cache_type=auto_hyper_clock_cache -histograms=0 -cache_size=8000000 -threads=100 -populate_cache=0 -ops_per_thread=10000 -degenerate_hash_bits=6 -num_shard_bits=0; do :; done ``` Or even smaller cases. This setup has around 27 utilized chains, with around 35 entries each, and yield-waits more than 1 million times per second (very high contention; see next section). I have let this run for hours searching for any lingering issues. I've also run cache_bench under ASAN, UBSAN, and TSAN. ## Essentially wait free There is a counter for number of yield() calls when one thread is waiting on another. When we pre-populate the structure in a single thread, ``` ./cache_bench -cache_type=auto_hyper_clock_cache -histograms=0 -populate_cache=1 -ops_per_thread=200000 2>&1 | grep Yield ``` We see something on the order of 1 yield call per second across 16 threads, even when we load the system other other jobs (parallel compilation). With -populate_cache=0, there are more yield opportunities with parallel table growth. On an otherwise unloaded system, we still see very small (single digit) yield counts, with a chance of getting into the thousands, and getting into 10s of thousands per second during table growth phase if the system is loaded with other jobs. However, I am not worried about this if performance is still good (see next section). ## Overall performance Although cache_bench initially suggested performance very close to FixedHCC, there was a very noticeable performance hit under a db_bench setup like used in validating https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/10626. Much of the difference has been reduced by optimizing Lookup with a "naive" pass that will almost always find entries quickly, and only falling back to the careful Lookup algorithm when not found in the first pass. Setups (chosen to be sensitive to block cache performance), and compiled with USE_CLANG=1 JEMALLOC=1 PORTABLE=0 DEBUG_LEVEL=0: ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm base/db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` ### No regression on FixedHCC Running before & after builds at the same time on a 48 core machine. ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm /usr/bin/time ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom[-X10],block_cache_entry_stats,cache_report_problems -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=610000000 -duration 20 -threads=24 -cache_type=fixed_hyper_clock_cache -seed=1234 ``` Before: readrandom [AVG 10 runs] : 847234 (± 8150) ops/sec; 59.2 (± 0.6) MB/sec 703MB max RSS After: readrandom [AVG 10 runs] : 851021 (± 7929) ops/sec; 59.5 (± 0.6) MB/sec 706MB max RSS Probably no material difference. ### Single-threaded performance Using `[-X2]` and `-threads=1` and `-duration=30`, running all three at the same time: lru_cache: 55100 ops/sec, then 55862 ops/sec (627MB max RSS) fixed_hyper_clock_cache: 60496 ops/sec, then 61231 ops/sec (626MB max RSS) auto_hyper_clock_cache: 47560 ops/sec, then 56081 ops/sec (626MB max RSS) So AutoHCC has more ramp-up cost in the first pass as the cache grows to the appropriate size. (In single-threaded operation, the parallelizability and per-op low latency of table growth is overall slower.) However, once up to size, its performance is comparable to LRUCache. FixedHCC's lean operations still win overall when a good estimate is available. If we look at HCC table stats, we can see that this configuration is not favorable to AutoHCC (and I have verified that other memory sizes do not yield substantially different results, until shards are under-sized for the full filters): FixedHCC: Slot occupancy stats: Overall 47% (124991/262144), Min/Max/Window = 28%/64%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 17/22 AutoHCC: Slot occupancy stats: Overall 59% (125781/209682), Min/Max/Window = 43%/82%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 76/16 Head occupancy stats: Overall 43% (92259/209682), Min/Max/Window = 24%/74%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 19/26 Entries at home count: 53350 FixedHCC configuration is relatively good for speed, and not ideal for space utilization. As is typical, AutoHCC has tighter control on metadata usage (209682 x 64 bytes rather than 262144 x 64 bytes), and the higher load factor is slightly worse for speed. LRUCache also has more metadata usage, at 199680 x 96 bytes of tracked metadata (plus roughly another 10% of that untracked in the head pointers), and that metadata is subject to fragmentation. ### Parallel performance, high hit rate Now using `[-X10]` and `-threads=10`, all three at the same time lru_cache: [AVG 10 runs] : 263629 (± 1425) ops/sec; 18.4 (± 0.1) MB/sec 655MB max RSS, 97.1% cache hit rate fixed_hyper_clock_cache: [AVG 10 runs] : 479590 (± 8114) ops/sec; 33.5 (± 0.6) MB/sec 651MB max RSS, 97.1% cache hit rate auto_hyper_clock_cache: [AVG 10 runs] : 418687 (± 5915) ops/sec; 29.3 (± 0.4) MB/sec 657MB max RSS, 97.1% cache hit rate Even with just 10-way parallelism for each cache (though 30+/48 cores busy overall), LRUCache is already showing performance degradation, while AutoHCC is in the neighborhood of FixedHCC. And that brings us to the question of how AutoHCC holds up under extreme parallelism, so now independent runs with `-threads=100` (overloading 48 cores). lru_cache: 438613 ops/sec, 827MB max RSS fixed_hyper_clock_cache: 1651310 ops/sec, 812MB max RSS auto_hyper_clock_cache: 1505875 ops/sec, 821MB max RSS (Yield count: 1089 over 30s) Clearly, AutoHCC holds up extremely well under extreme parallelism, even closing some of the modest performance gap with FixedHCC. ### Parallel performance, low hit rate To get down to roughly 50% cache hit rate, we use `-cache_index_and_filter_blocks=0 -cache_size=1650000000` with `-threads=10`. Here the extra cost of running counting clock eviction, especially on the chains of AutoHCC, are evident, especially with the lower contention of cache_index_and_filter_blocks=0: lru_cache: 725231 ops/sec, 1770MB max RSS, 51.3% hit rate fixed_hyper_clock_cache: 638620 ops/sec, 1765MB max RSS, 50.2% hit rate auto_hyper_clock_cache: 541018 ops/sec, 1777MB max RSS, 50.8% hit rate Reviewed By: jowlyzhang Differential Revision: D48784755 Pulled By: pdillinger fbshipit-source-id: e79813dc087474ac427637dd282a14fa3011a6e4

In LRUCache, the biggest such problem is lock contention when one or a small number of cache entries becomes particularly hot. Regardless of cache sharding, accesses to any particular cache entry are linearized against a single mutex, which is held while each access updates the LRU list. All HCC variants are fully lock/wait-free for accessing blocks already in the cache, which fully mitigates this contention problem.

Unlike LRU which can find any evictable entries immediately (at the cost of more coordination / synchronization on each access), CLOCK has to search for evictable entries. Under the right conditions (almost exclusively MB-scale caches not GB-scale), the CPU cost of each cache miss could fall off a cliff and bog down the whole system.

When we pre-populate the structure in a single thread, ``` ./cache_bench -cache_type=auto_hyper_clock_cache -histograms=0 -populate_cache=1 -ops_per_thread=200000 2>&1 | grep Yield ``` We see something on the order of 1 yield call per second across 16 threads, even when we load the system other other jobs (parallel compilation). With -populate_cache=0, there are more yield opportunities with parallel table growth. On an otherwise unloaded system, we still see very small (single digit) yield counts, with a chance of getting into the thousands, and getting into 10s of thousands per second during table growth phase if the system is loaded with other jobs. However, I am not worried about this if performance is still good (see next section). ## Overall performance Although cache_bench initially suggested performance very close to FixedHCC, there was a very noticeable performance hit under a db_bench setup like used in validating https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/10626. Much of the difference has been reduced by optimizing Lookup with a "naive" pass that will almost always find entries quickly, and only falling back to the careful Lookup algorithm when not found in the first pass. Setups (chosen to be sensitive to block cache performance), and compiled with USE_CLANG=1 JEMALLOC=1 PORTABLE=0 DEBUG_LEVEL=0: ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm base/db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` ### No regression on FixedHCC Running before & after builds at the same time on a 48 core machine. ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm /usr/bin/time ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom[-X10],block_cache_entry_stats,cache_report_problems -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=610000000 -duration 20 -threads=24 -cache_type=fixed_hyper_clock_cache -seed=1234 ``` Before: readrandom [AVG 10 runs] : 847234 (± 8150) ops/sec; 59.2 (± 0.6) MB/sec 703MB max RSS After: readrandom [AVG 10 runs] : 851021 (± 7929) ops/sec; 59.5 (± 0.6) MB/sec 706MB max RSS Probably no material difference. ### Single-threaded performance Using `[-X2]` and `-threads=1` and `-duration=30`, running all three at the same time: lru_cache: 55100 ops/sec, then 55862 ops/sec (627MB max RSS) fixed_hyper_clock_cache: 60496 ops/sec, then 61231 ops/sec (626MB max RSS) auto_hyper_clock_cache: 47560 ops/sec, then 56081 ops/sec (626MB max RSS) So AutoHCC has more ramp-up cost in the first pass as the cache grows to the appropriate size. (In single-threaded operation, the parallelizability and per-op low latency of table growth is overall slower.) However, once up to size, its performance is comparable to LRUCache. FixedHCC's lean operations still win overall when a good estimate is available. If we look at HCC table stats, we can see that this configuration is not favorable to AutoHCC (and I have verified that other memory sizes do not yield substantially different results, until shards are under-sized for the full filters): FixedHCC: Slot occupancy stats: Overall 47% (124991/262144), Min/Max/Window = 28%/64%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 17/22 AutoHCC: Slot occupancy stats: Overall 59% (125781/209682), Min/Max/Window = 43%/82%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 76/16 Head occupancy stats: Overall 43% (92259/209682), Min/Max/Window = 24%/74%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 19/26 Entries at home count: 53350 FixedHCC configuration is relatively good for speed, and not ideal for space utilization. As is typical, AutoHCC has tighter control on metadata usage (209682 x 64 bytes rather than 262144 x 64 bytes), and the higher load factor is slightly worse for speed. LRUCache also has more metadata usage, at 199680 x 96 bytes of tracked metadata (plus roughly another 10% of that untracked in the head pointers), and that metadata is subject to fragmentation. ### Parallel performance, high hit rate Now using `[-X10]` and `-threads=10`, all three at the same time lru_cache: [AVG 10 runs] : 263629 (± 1425) ops/sec; 18.4 (± 0.1) MB/sec 655MB max RSS, 97.1% cache hit rate fixed_hyper_clock_cache: [AVG 10 runs] : 479590 (± 8114) ops/sec; 33.5 (± 0.6) MB/sec 651MB max RSS, 97.1% cache hit rate auto_hyper_clock_cache: [AVG 10 runs] : 418687 (± 5915) ops/sec; 29.3 (± 0.4) MB/sec 657MB max RSS, 97.1% cache hit rate Even with just 10-way parallelism for each cache (though 30+/48 cores busy overall), LRUCache is already showing performance degradation, while AutoHCC is in the neighborhood of FixedHCC. And that brings us to the question of how AutoHCC holds up under extreme parallelism, so now independent runs with `-threads=100` (overloading 48 cores). lru_cache: 438613 ops/sec, 827MB max RSS fixed_hyper_clock_cache: 1651310 ops/sec, 812MB max RSS auto_hyper_clock_cache: 1505875 ops/sec, 821MB max RSS (Yield count: 1089 over 30s) Clearly, AutoHCC holds up extremely well under extreme parallelism, even closing some of the modest performance gap with FixedHCC. ### Parallel performance, low hit rate To get down to roughly 50% cache hit rate, we use `-cache_index_and_filter_blocks=0 -cache_size=1650000000` with `-threads=10`. Here the extra cost of running counting clock eviction, especially on the chains of AutoHCC, are evident, especially with the lower contention of cache_index_and_filter_blocks=0: lru_cache: 725231 ops/sec, 1770MB max RSS, 51.3% hit rate fixed_hyper_clock_cache: 638620 ops/sec, 1765MB max RSS, 50.2% hit rate auto_hyper_clock_cache: 541018 ops/sec, 1777MB max RSS, 50.8% hit rate Reviewed By: jowlyzhang Differential Revision: D48784755 Pulled By: pdillinger fbshipit-source-id: e79813dc087474ac427637dd282a14fa3011a6e4

Cap eviction effort (CPU under stress) in HyperClockCache (#12141) Summary: HyperClockCache is intended to mitigate performance problems under stress conditions (as well as optimizing average-case parallel performance). In LRUCache, the biggest such problem is lock contention when one or a small number of cache entries becomes particularly hot. Regardless of cache sharding, accesses to any particular cache entry are linearized against a single mutex, which is held while each access updates the LRU list. All HCC variants are fully lock/wait-free for accessing blocks already in the cache, which fully mitigates this contention problem. However, HCC (and CLOCK in general) can exhibit extremely degraded performance under a different stress condition: when no (or almost no) entries in a cache shard are evictable (they are pinned). Unlike LRU which can find any evictable entries immediately (at the cost of more coordination / synchronization on each access), CLOCK has to search for evictable entries. Under the right conditions (almost exclusively MB-scale caches not GB-scale), the CPU cost of each cache miss could fall off a cliff and bog down the whole system. To effectively mitigate this problem (IMHO), I'm introducing a new default behavior and tuning parameter for HCC, `eviction_effort_cap`. See the comments on the new config parameter in the public API. Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/12141 Test Plan: unit test included ## Performance test We can use cache_bench to validate no regression (CPU and memory) in normal operation, and to measure change in behavior when cache is almost entirely pinned. (TODO: I'm not sure why I had to get the pinned ratio parameter well over 1.0 to see truly bad performance, but the behavior is there.) Build with `make DEBUG_LEVEL=0 USE_CLANG=1 PORTABLE=0 cache_bench`. We also set MALLOC_CONF="narenas:1" for all these runs to essentially remove jemalloc variances from the results, so that the max RSS given by /usr/bin/time is essentially ideal (assuming the allocator minimizes fragmentation and other memory overheads well). Base command reproducing bad behavior: ``` ./cache_bench -cache_type=auto_hyper_clock_cache -threads=12 -histograms=0 -pinned_ratio=1.7 ``` ``` Before, LRU (alternate baseline not exhibiting bad behavior): Rough parallel ops/sec = 2290997 1088060 maxresident Before, AutoHCC (bad behavior): Rough parallel ops/sec = 141011 <- Yes, more than 10x slower 1083932 maxresident ``` Now let us sample a range of values in the solution space: ``` After, AutoHCC, eviction_effort_cap = 1: Rough parallel ops/sec = 3212586 2402216 maxresident After, AutoHCC, eviction_effort_cap = 10: Rough parallel ops/sec = 2371639 1248884 maxresident After, AutoHCC, eviction_effort_cap = 30: Rough parallel ops/sec = 1981092 1131596 maxresident After, AutoHCC, eviction_effort_cap = 100: Rough parallel ops/sec = 1446188 1090976 maxresident After, AutoHCC, eviction_effort_cap = 1000: Rough parallel ops/sec = 549568 1084064 maxresident ``` I looks like `cap=30` is a sweet spot balancing acceptable CPU and memory overheads, so is chosen as the default. ``` Change to -pinned_ratio=0.85 Before, LRU: Rough parallel ops/sec = 2108373 1078232 maxresident Before, AutoHCC, averaged over ~20 runs: Rough parallel ops/sec = 2164910 1077312 maxresident After, AutoHCC, eviction_effort_cap = 30, averaged over ~20 runs: Rough parallel ops/sec = 2145542 1077216 maxresident ``` The slight CPU improvement above is consistent with the cap, with no measurable memory overhead under moderate stress. ``` Change to -pinned_ratio=0.25 (low stress) Before, AutoHCC, averaged over ~20 runs: Rough parallel ops/sec = 2221149 1076540 maxresident After, AutoHCC, eviction_effort_cap = 30, averaged over ~20 runs: Rough parallel ops/sec = 2224521 1076664 maxresident ``` No measurable difference under normal circumstances.

Automatic table sizing for HyperClockCache (AutoHCC) (#11738) Summary: This change add an experimental next-generation HyperClockCache (HCC) with automatic sizing of the underlying hash table. Both the existing version (stable) and the new version (experimental for now) of HCC are available depending on whether an estimated average entry charge is provided in HyperClockCacheOptions. Internally, we call the two implementations AutoHyperClockCache (new) and FixedHyperClockCache (existing). The performance characteristics and much of the underlying logic are similar enough that AutoHCC is likely to make FixedHCC obsolete, and so it's best considered an evolution of the same technology or solution rather than an alternative. More specifically, both implementations share essentially the same logic for managing the state of individual entries in the cache, including metadata for reference counting and counting clocks for eviction. This metadata, which I like to call the "low-level HCC protocol," includes a read-write lock on entries, but relaxed consistency requirements on the cache (e.g. allowing rare duplication) means high-level cache operations never wait for these low-level per-entry locks. FixedHCC is fully wait-free. AutoHCC is different in how entries are indexed into an efficient hash table. AutoHCC is "essentially wait-free" as there is no pattern of typical high-level operations on a large cache that can lead to one thread waiting on another to complete some work, though it can happen in some unusual/unlucky cases, or atypical uses such as erasing specific cache keys. Table growth and entry reclamation is more complex in AutoHCC compared to FixedHCC, so uses some localized locking to manage that. AutoHCC uses linear hashing to grow the table as needed, with low latency and to a precise size. AutoHCC depends on anonymous mmap support from the OS (currently verified working on Linux, MacOS, and Windows) to allow the array underlying a hash table to grow in place without wasting resident memory on space reserved but unused. AutoHCC uses a form of chaining while FixedHCC uses open addressing and double hashing. More specifics: * In developing this PR, a rare availability bug (minor) was noticed in the existing HCC implementation of Release()+erase_if_last_ref, which is now inherited into AutoHCC. Fixing this without a performance regression will not be simple, so is left for follow-up work. * Some existing unit tests required adjustment of operational parameters or conditions to work with the new behaviors of AutoHCC. A number of bugs were found and fixed in the validation process, including getting unit tests in good working order. * Added an option to cache_bench, `-degenerate_hash_bits` for correctness stress testing described below. For this, the tool uses the reverse-engineered hash function for HCC to generate keys in which the specified number of hash bits, in critical positions, have a fixed value. Essentially each degenerate hash bit will half the number of chain heads utilized and double the average chain length. Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/11738 Test Plan: unit tests updated, and already added to db crash test. Also ## Correctness The code includes generous assertions to check for unexpected states, especially at destruction time, so should be able to detect critical concurrency bugs. Less serious "availability bugs" in which cache data is hidden or cleanly lost are more difficult to detect, but also less scary for data correctness (as long as performance is good and the design is sound). In average operation, the structure is extremely low stress and low contention (see next section) so stressing the corner case logic requires artificially stressing the operating conditions. First, we keep the structure small to increase the number of threads hitting the same chain or entry, and just one cache shard. Second, we artificially degrade the hashing so that chains are much longer than typical, using the new `-degenerate_hash_bits` option to cache_bench. Third, we re-create the structure from scratch frequently in order to exercise the Grow logic repeatedly and to get the benefit of the consistency checks in the structure's destructor in debug builds. For cache_bench this also means disabling the single-threaded "populate cache" step (normally used for steady state performance testing). And of course use many more threads than cores to have many preemptions. An effective test for working out bugs was this (using debug build of course): ``` while ./cache_bench -cache_type=auto_hyper_clock_cache -histograms=0 -cache_size=8000000 -threads=100 -populate_cache=0 -ops_per_thread=10000 -degenerate_hash_bits=6 -num_shard_bits=0; do :; done ``` Or even smaller cases. This setup has around 27 utilized chains, with around 35 entries each, and yield-waits more than 1 million times per second (very high contention; see next section). I have let this run for hours searching for any lingering issues. I've also run cache_bench under ASAN, UBSAN, and TSAN. ## Essentially wait free There is a counter for number of yield() calls when one thread is waiting on another. When we pre-populate the structure in a single thread, ``` ./cache_bench -cache_type=auto_hyper_clock_cache -histograms=0 -populate_cache=1 -ops_per_thread=200000 2>&1 | grep Yield ``` We see something on the order of 1 yield call per second across 16 threads, even when we load the system other other jobs (parallel compilation). With -populate_cache=0, there are more yield opportunities with parallel table growth. On an otherwise unloaded system, we still see very small (single digit) yield counts, with a chance of getting into the thousands, and getting into 10s of thousands per second during table growth phase if the system is loaded with other jobs. However, I am not worried about this if performance is still good (see next section). ## Overall performance Although cache_bench initially suggested performance very close to FixedHCC, there was a very noticeable performance hit under a db_bench setup like used in validating https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/10626.

Cap eviction effort (CPU under stress) in HyperClockCache (#12141) Summary: HyperClockCache is intended to mitigate performance problems under stress conditions (as well as optimizing average-case parallel performance). In LRUCache, the biggest such problem is lock contention when one or a small number of cache entries becomes particularly hot. Regardless of cache sharding, accesses to any particular cache entry are linearized against a single mutex, which is held while each access updates the LRU list. All HCC variants are fully lock/wait-free for accessing blocks already in the cache, which fully mitigates this contention problem. However, HCC (and CLOCK in general) can exhibit extremely degraded performance under a different stress condition: when no (or almost no) entries in a cache shard are evictable (they are pinned). Unlike LRU which can find any evictable entries immediately (at the cost of more coordination / synchronization on each access), CLOCK has to search for evictable entries. Under the right conditions (almost exclusively MB-scale caches not GB-scale), the CPU cost of each cache miss could fall off a cliff and bog down the whole system. To effectively mitigate this problem (IMHO), I'm introducing a new default behavior and tuning parameter for HCC, `eviction_effort_cap`. See the comments on the new config parameter in the public API. Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/12141 Test Plan: unit test included ## Performance test We can use cache_bench to validate no regression (CPU and memory) in normal operation, and to measure change in behavior when cache is almost entirely pinned. (TODO: I'm not sure why I had to get the pinned ratio parameter well over 1.0 to see truly bad performance, but the behavior is there.) Build with `make DEBUG_LEVEL=0 USE_CLANG=1 PORTABLE=0 cache_bench`. We also set MALLOC_CONF="narenas:1" for all these runs to essentially remove jemalloc variances from the results, so that the max RSS given by /usr/bin/time is essentially ideal (assuming the allocator minimizes fragmentation and other memory overheads well).

Placeholder for AutoHyperClockCache, more (#11692) Summary: * The plan is for AutoHyperClockCache to be selected when HyperClockCacheOptions::estimated_entry_charge == 0, and in that case to use a new configuration option min_avg_entry_charge for determining an extreme case maximum size for the hash table. For the placeholder, a hack is in place in HyperClockCacheOptions::MakeSharedCache() to make the unit tests happy despite the new options not really making sense with the current implementation. * Mostly updating and refactoring tests to test both the current HCC (internal name FixedHyperClockCache) and a placeholder for the new version (internal name AutoHyperClockCache). * Simplify some existing tests not to depend directly on cache type. * Type-parameterize the shard-level unit tests, which unfortunately requires more syntax like `this->` in places for disambiguation. * Added means of choosing auto_hyper_clock_cache to cache_bench, db_bench, and db_stress, including add to crash test. * Add another templated class BaseHyperClockCache to reduce future copy-paste * Added ReportProblems support to cache_bench * Added a DEBUG-level diagnostic to ReportProblems for the variance in load factor throughout the table, which will become more of a concern with linear hashing to be used in the Auto implementation. Example with current Fixed HCC: ``` 2023/08/10-13:41:41.602450 6ac36 [DEBUG] [che/clock_cache.cc:1507] Slot occupancy stats: Overall 49% (129008/262144), Min/Max/Window = 39%/60%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 18/17 ``` In other words, with overall occupancy of 49%, the lowest across any 500 contiguous cells is 39% and highest 60%. Longest run of occupied is 18 and longest run of unoccupied is 17. This seems consistent with random samples from a uniform distribution.

HyperClockCache support for SecondaryCache, with refactoring (#11301) Summary: Internally refactors SecondaryCache integration out of LRUCache specifically and into a wrapper/adapter class that works with various Cache implementations. Notably, this relies on separating the notion of async lookup handles from other cache handles, so that HyperClockCache doesn't have to deal with the problem of allocating handles from the hash table for lookups that might fail anyway, and might be on the same key without support for coalescing. (LRUCache's hash table can incorporate previously allocated handles thanks to its pointer indirection.) Specifically, I'm worried about the case in which hundreds of threads try to access the same block and probing in the hash table degrades to linear search on the pile of entries with the same key. This change is a big step in the direction of supporting stacked SecondaryCaches, but there are obstacles to completing that. Especially, there is no SecondaryCache hook for evictions to pass from one to the next. It has been proposed that evictions be transmitted simply as the persisted data (as in SaveToCallback), but given the current structure provided by the CacheItemHelpers, that would require an extra copy of the block data, because there's intentionally no way to ask for a contiguous Slice of the data (to allow for flexibility in storage). `AsyncLookupHandle` and the re-worked `WaitAll()` should be essentially prepared for stacked SecondaryCaches, but several "TODO with stacked secondaries" issues remain in various places. It could be argued that the stacking instead be done as a SecondaryCache adapter that wraps two (or more) SecondaryCaches, but at least with the current API that would require an extra heap allocation on SecondaryCache Lookup for a wrapper SecondaryCacheResultHandle that can transfer a Lookup between secondaries. We could also consider trying to unify the Cache and SecondaryCache APIs, though that might be difficult if `AsyncLookupHandle` is kept a fixed struct. ## cache.h (public API) Moves `secondary_cache` option from LRUCacheOptions to ShardedCacheOptions so that it is applicable to HyperClockCache. ## advanced_cache.h (advanced public API) * Add `Cache::CreateStandalone()` so that the SecondaryCache support wrapper can use it. * Add `SetEvictionCallback()` / `eviction_callback_` so that the SecondaryCache support wrapper can use it. Only a single callback is supported for efficiency. If there is ever a need for more than one, hopefully that can be handled with a broadcast callback wrapper. These are essentially the two "extra" pieces of `Cache` for pulling out specific SecondaryCache support from the `Cache` implementation. I think it's a good trade-off as these are reasonable, limited, and reusable "cut points" into the `Cache` implementations. * Remove async capability from standard `Lookup()` (getting rid of awkward restrictions on pending Handles) and add `AsyncLookupHandle` and `StartAsyncLookup()`. As noted in the comments, the full struct of `AsyncLookupHandle` is exposed so that it can be stack allocated, for efficiency, though more data is being copied around than before, which could impact performance. (Lookup info -> AsyncLookupHandle -> Handle vs. Lookup info -> Handle) I could foresee a future in which a Cache internally saves a pointer to the AsyncLookupHandle, which means it's dangerous to allow it to be copyable or even movable. It also means it's not compatible with std::vector (which I don't like requiring as an API parameter anyway), so `WaitAll()` expects any contiguous array of AsyncLookupHandles. I believe this is best for common case efficiency, while behaving well in other cases also. For example, `WaitAll()` has no effect on default-constructed AsyncLookupHandles, which look like a completed cache miss. ## cacheable_entry.h A couple of functions are obsolete because Cache::Handle can no longer be pending. ## cache.cc Provides default implementations for new or revamped Cache functions, especially appropriate for non-blocking caches. ## secondary_cache_adapter.{h,cc} The full details of the Cache wrapper adding SecondaryCache support. Essentially replicates the SecondaryCache handling that was in LRUCache, but obviously refactored. There is a bit of logic duplication, where Lookup() is essentially a manually optimized version of StartAsyncLookup() and Wait(), but it's roughly a dozen lines of code. ## sharded_cache.h, typed_cache.h, charged_cache.{h,cc}, sim_cache.cc Simply updated for Cache API changes. ## lru_cache.{h,cc} Carefully remove SecondaryCache logic, implement `CreateStandalone` and eviction handler functionality. ## clock_cache.{h,cc} Expose existing `CreateStandalone` functionality, add eviction handler functionality. Light refactoring. ## block_based_table_reader* Mostly re-worked the only usage of async Lookup, which is in BlockBasedTable::MultiGet. Used arrays in place of autovector in some places for efficiency. Simplified some logic by not trying to process some cache results before they're all ready. Created new function `BlockBasedTable::GetCachePriority()` to reduce some pre-existing code duplication (and avoid making it worse). Fixed at least one small bug from the prior confusing mixture of async and sync Lookups. In MaybeReadBlockAndLoadToCache(), called by RetrieveBlock(), called by MultiGet() with wait=false, is_cache_hit for the block_cache_tracer entry would not be set to true if the handle was pending after Lookup and before Wait. ## Intended follow-up work * Figure out if there are any missing stats or block_cache_tracer work in refactored BlockBasedTable::MultiGet * Stacked secondary caches (see above discussion) * See if we can make up for the small MultiGet performance regression. * Study more performance with SecondaryCache * Items evicted from over-full LRUCache in Release were not being demoted to SecondaryCache, and still aren't to minimize unit test churn. Ideally they would be demoted, but it's an exceptional case so not a big deal. * Use CreateStandalone for cache reservations (save unnecessary hash table operations). Not a big deal, but worthy cleanup. * Somehow I got the contract for SecondaryCache::Insert wrong in #10945. (Doesn't take ownership!) That API comment needs to be fixed, but didn't want to mingle that in here. Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/11301 Test Plan: ## Unit tests Generally updated to include HCC in SecondaryCache tests, though HyperClockCache has some different, less strict behaviors that leads to some tests not really being set up to work with it. Some of the tests remain disabled with it, but I think we have good coverage without them. ## Crash/stress test Updated to use the new combination. ## Performance First, let's check for regression on caches without secondary cache configured. Adding support for the eviction callback is likely to have a tiny effect, but it shouldn't be worrisome. LRUCache could benefit slightly from less logic around SecondaryCache handling. We can test with cache_bench default settings, built with DEBUG_LEVEL=0 and PORTABLE=0. ``` (while :; do base/cache_bench --cache_type=hyper_clock_cache | grep Rough; done) | awk '{ sum += $9; count++; print $0; print "Average: " int(sum / count) }' ``` **Before** this and #11299 (which could also have a small effect), running for about an hour, before & after running concurrently for each cache type: HyperClockCache: 3168662 (average parallel ops/sec) LRUCache: 2940127 **After** this and #11299, running for about an hour: HyperClockCache: 3164862 (average parallel ops/sec) (0.12% slower) LRUCache: 2940928 (0.03% faster) This is an acceptable difference IMHO. Next, let's consider essentially the worst case of new CPU overhead affecting overall performance. MultiGet uses the async lookup interface regardless of whether SecondaryCache or folly are used. We can configure a benchmark where all block cache queries are for data blocks, and all are hits. Create DB and test (before and after tests running simultaneously): ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm base/db_bench -benchmarks=multireadrandom[-X30] -readonly -multiread_batched -batch_size=32 -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_size=6789000000 -duration 20 -threads=16 ``` **Before**: multireadrandom [AVG 30 runs] : 3444202 (± 57049) ops/sec; 240.9 (± 4.0) MB/sec multireadrandom [MEDIAN 30 runs] : 3514443 ops/sec; 245.8 MB/sec **After**: multireadrandom [AVG 30 runs] : 3291022 (± 58851) ops/sec; 230.2 (± 4.1) MB/sec multireadrandom [MEDIAN 30 runs] : 3366179 ops/sec; 235.4 MB/sec So that's roughly a 3% regression, on kind of a *worst case* test of MultiGet CPU.

Not ideal, but not the whole story, fortunately. Let's also look at Get() in db_bench: ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom[-X30] -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_size=6789000000 -duration 20 -threads=16 ``` **Before**: readrandom [AVG 30 runs] : 2198685 (± 13412) ops/sec; 153.8 (± 0.9) MB/sec readrandom [MEDIAN 30 runs] : 2209498 ops/sec; 154.5 MB/sec **After**: readrandom [AVG 30 runs] : 2292814 (± 43508) ops/sec; 160.3 (± 3.0) MB/sec readrandom [MEDIAN 30 runs] : 2365181 ops/sec; 165.4 MB/sec That's showing roughly a 4% improvement, perhaps because of the secondary cache code that is no longer part of LRUCache. But weirdly, HyperClockCache is also showing 2-3% improvement: **Before**: readrandom [AVG 30 runs] : 2272333 (± 9992) ops/sec; 158.9 (± 0.7) MB/sec readrandom [MEDIAN 30 runs] : 2273239 ops/sec; 159.0 MB/sec **After**: readrandom [AVG 30 runs] : 2332407 (± 11252) ops/sec; 163.1 (± 0.8) MB/sec readrandom [MEDIAN 30 runs] : 2335329 ops/sec; 163.3 MB/sec Reviewed By: ltamasi Differential Revision: D44177044 Pulled By: pdillinger fbshipit-source-id: e808e48ff3fe2f792a79841ba617be98e48689f5

Refactor (Hyper)ClockCache code (#10887) Summary: For clean-up and in preparation for some other anticipated changes, including * A new dynamically-scaling variant of HyperClockCache * SecondaryCache support for HyperClockCache This change does some refactoring for current and future code sharing and reusability. (Including follow-up on https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/10843) ## clock_cache.h * TBD whether new variant will be a HyperClockCache or use some other name, so namespace is just clock_cache for the family of structures. * A number of helper functions introduced and used. * Pre-emptively split ClockHandle (shared among lock-free clock cache variants) and HandleImpl (specific to a kind of Table), and introduce template to plug new Table implementation into ClockCacheShard. ## clock_cache.cc * Mostly using helper functions. Some things like `Rollback()` and `FreeDataMarkEmpty()` were not combined because `Rollback()` is Table-specific while `FreeDataMarkEmpty()` can be used with different table implementations. * Performance testing indicated that despite more opportunities for parallelism, making a local copy of handle data for processing after marking an entry empty was slower than doing that processing before marking the entry empty (but after marking it "under construction"), thus avoiding a few words of copying data. At least for now, this answers the "TODO? Delay freeing?" questions (no). Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/10887 Test Plan: fixed a unit testing gap; other minor test updates for refactoring No functionality change ## Performance Same setup as https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/10801: Before: `readrandom [AVG 81 runs] : 627992 (± 5124) ops/sec` After: `readrandom [AVG 81 runs] : 637512 (± 4866) ops/sec` I've been getting some inconsistent results on restarts like the system is not being fair to the two processes, so I'm not sure there's such a real difference.

bool Release(HandleImpl* handle, bool useful, bool erase_if_last_ref);
Revamp, optimize new experimental clock cache (#10626) Summary: * Consolidates most metadata into a single word per slot so that more can be accomplished with a single atomic update. In the common case, Lookup was previously about 4 atomic updates, now just 1 atomic update. Common case Release was previously 1 atomic read + 1 atomic update, now just 1 atomic update. * Eliminate spins / waits / yields, which likely threaten some "lock free" benefits. Compare-exchange loops are only used in explicit Erase, and strict_capacity_limit=true Insert. Eviction uses opportunistic compare- exchange. * Relaxes some aggressiveness and guarantees. For example, * Duplicate Inserts will sometimes go undetected and the shadow duplicate will age out with eviction. * In many cases, the older Inserted value for a given cache key will be kept (i.e. Insert does not support overwrite). * Entries explicitly erased (rather than evicted) might not be freed immediately in some rare cases. * With strict_capacity_limit=false, capacity limit is not tracked/enforced as precisely as LRUCache, but is self-correcting and should only deviate by a very small number of extra or fewer entries. * Use smaller "computed default" number of cache shards in many cases, because benefits to larger usage tracking / eviction pools outweigh the small cost of more lock-free atomic contention. The improvement in CPU and I/O is dramatic in some limit-memory cases. * Even without the sharding change, the eviction algorithm is likely more effective than LRU overall because it's more stateful, even though the "hot path" state tracking for it is essentially free with ref counting. It is like a generalized CLOCK with aging (see code comments). I don't have performance numbers showing a specific improvement, but in theory, for a Poisson access pattern to each block, keeping some state allows better estimation of time to next access (Poisson interval) than strict LRU. The bounded randomness in CLOCK can also reduce "cliff" effect for repeated range scans approaching and exceeding cache size. ## Hot path algorithm comparison Rough descriptions, focusing on number and kind of atomic operations: * Old `Lookup()` (2-5 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment internal ref count at slot If possible hit: Check flags atomic (and non-atomic fields) If cache hit: Three distinct updates to 'flags' atomic Increment refs for internal-to-external Return Decrement internal ref count while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * New `Lookup()` (1-2 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment acquire counter in meta word (optimistic) If visible entry (already read meta word): If match (read non-atomic fields): Return Else: Decrement acquire counter in meta word Else if invisible entry (rare, already read meta word): Decrement acquire counter in meta word while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * Old `Release()` (1 atomic update, conditional on atomic read, rarely more): ``` Read atomic ref count If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return Else: Decrement ref count ``` * New `Release()` (1 unconditional atomic update, rarely more): ``` Increment release counter in meta word If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return ``` ## Performance test setup Build DB with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` Test with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=${CACHE_MB}000000 -duration 60 -threads=$THREADS -statistics ``` Numbers on a single socket Skylake Xeon system with 48 hardware threads, DEBUG_LEVEL=0 PORTABLE=0.

Mutex-based implementation quickly becomes contention-limited. New clock cache shows essentially perfect scaling up to number of physical cores (24), and then each hyperthreaded core adding about 1/4 the throughput of an additional physical core (see 48 thread case). Block cache miss rates (omitted above) are negligible across the board. With partitioned instead of full filters, the maximum speed-up vs. base is more like 2.5x rather than 5x.

This new clock cache only uses two shards for this configuration, and that helps to ensure that entries are part of a sufficiently big pool that their eviction order resembles the single-shard order.

Refactor ShardedCache for more sharing, static polymorphism (#10801) Summary: The motivations for this change include * Free up space in ClockHandle so that we can add data for secondary cache handling while still keeping within single cache line (64 byte) size. * This change frees up space by eliminating the need for the `hash` field by making the fixed-size key itself a hash, using a 128-bit bijective (lossless) hash. * Generally more customizability of ShardedCache (such as hashing) without worrying about virtual call overheads * ShardedCache now uses static polymorphism (template) instead of dynamic polymorphism (virtual overrides) for the CacheShard. No obvious performance benefit is seen from the change (as mostly expected; most calls to virtual functions in CacheShard could already be optimized to static calls), but offers more flexibility without incurring the runtime cost of adhering to a common interface (without type parameters or static callbacks). * You'll also notice less `reinterpret_cast`ing and other boilerplate in the Cache implementations, as this can go in ShardedCache. More detail: * Don't have LRUCacheShard maintain `std::shared_ptr<SecondaryCache>` copies (extra refcount) when LRUCache can be in charge of keeping a `shared_ptr`. * Renamed `capacity_mutex_` to `config_mutex_` to better represent the scope of what it guards. * Some preparation for 64-bit hash and indexing in LRUCache, but didn't include the full change because of slight performance regression. Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/10801 Test Plan: Unit test updates were non-trivial because of major changes to the ClockCacheShard interface in handling of key vs. hash.

void Erase(const UniqueId64x2& hashed_key);
Revamp, optimize new experimental clock cache (#10626) Summary: * Consolidates most metadata into a single word per slot so that more can be accomplished with a single atomic update. In the common case, Lookup was previously about 4 atomic updates, now just 1 atomic update. Common case Release was previously 1 atomic read + 1 atomic update, now just 1 atomic update. * Eliminate spins / waits / yields, which likely threaten some "lock free" benefits. Compare-exchange loops are only used in explicit Erase, and strict_capacity_limit=true Insert. Eviction uses opportunistic compare- exchange. * Relaxes some aggressiveness and guarantees. For example, * Duplicate Inserts will sometimes go undetected and the shadow duplicate will age out with eviction. * In many cases, the older Inserted value for a given cache key will be kept (i.e. Insert does not support overwrite). * Entries explicitly erased (rather than evicted) might not be freed immediately in some rare cases. * With strict_capacity_limit=false, capacity limit is not tracked/enforced as precisely as LRUCache, but is self-correcting and should only deviate by a very small number of extra or fewer entries. * Use smaller "computed default" number of cache shards in many cases, because benefits to larger usage tracking / eviction pools outweigh the small cost of more lock-free atomic contention. The improvement in CPU and I/O is dramatic in some limit-memory cases. * Even without the sharding change, the eviction algorithm is likely more effective than LRU overall because it's more stateful, even though the "hot path" state tracking for it is essentially free with ref counting. It is like a generalized CLOCK with aging (see code comments). I don't have performance numbers showing a specific improvement, but in theory, for a Poisson access pattern to each block, keeping some state allows better estimation of time to next access (Poisson interval) than strict LRU. The bounded randomness in CLOCK can also reduce "cliff" effect for repeated range scans approaching and exceeding cache size. ## Hot path algorithm comparison Rough descriptions, focusing on number and kind of atomic operations: * Old `Lookup()` (2-5 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment internal ref count at slot If possible hit: Check flags atomic (and non-atomic fields) If cache hit: Three distinct updates to 'flags' atomic Increment refs for internal-to-external Return Decrement internal ref count while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * New `Lookup()` (1-2 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment acquire counter in meta word (optimistic) If visible entry (already read meta word): If match (read non-atomic fields): Return Else: Decrement acquire counter in meta word Else if invisible entry (rare, already read meta word): Decrement acquire counter in meta word while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * Old `Release()` (1 atomic update, conditional on atomic read, rarely more): ``` Read atomic ref count If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return Else: Decrement ref count ``` * New `Release()` (1 unconditional atomic update, rarely more): ``` Increment release counter in meta word If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return ``` ## Performance test setup Build DB with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` Test with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=${CACHE_MB}000000 -duration 60 -threads=$THREADS -statistics ``` Numbers on a single socket Skylake Xeon system with 48 hardware threads, DEBUG_LEVEL=0 PORTABLE=0.

Mutex-based implementation quickly becomes contention-limited. New clock cache shows essentially perfect scaling up to number of physical cores (24), and then each hyperthreaded core adding about 1/4 the throughput of an additional physical core (see 48 thread case). Block cache miss rates (omitted above) are negligible across the board. With partitioned instead of full filters, the maximum speed-up vs. base is more like 2.5x rather than 5x.

This new clock cache only uses two shards for this configuration, and that helps to ensure that entries are part of a sufficiently big pool that their eviction order resembles the single-shard order.

void EraseUnRefEntries();
Refactor ShardedCache for more sharing, static polymorphism (#10801) Summary: The motivations for this change include * Free up space in ClockHandle so that we can add data for secondary cache handling while still keeping within single cache line (64 byte) size. * This change frees up space by eliminating the need for the `hash` field by making the fixed-size key itself a hash, using a 128-bit bijective (lossless) hash. * Generally more customizability of ShardedCache (such as hashing) without worrying about virtual call overheads * ShardedCache now uses static polymorphism (template) instead of dynamic polymorphism (virtual overrides) for the CacheShard. No obvious performance benefit is seen from the change (as mostly expected; most calls to virtual functions in CacheShard could already be optimized to static calls), but offers more flexibility without incurring the runtime cost of adhering to a common interface (without type parameters or static callbacks). * You'll also notice less `reinterpret_cast`ing and other boilerplate in the Cache implementations, as this can go in ShardedCache. More detail: * Don't have LRUCacheShard maintain `std::shared_ptr<SecondaryCache>` copies (extra refcount) when LRUCache can be in charge of keeping a `shared_ptr`. * Renamed `capacity_mutex_` to `config_mutex_` to better represent the scope of what it guards. * Some preparation for 64-bit hash and indexing in LRUCache, but didn't include the full change because of slight performance regression. Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/10801 Test Plan: Unit test updates were non-trivial because of major changes to the ClockCacheShard interface in handling of key vs. hash.

Observe and warn about misconfigured HyperClockCache (#10965) Summary: Background. One of the core risks of chosing HyperClockCache is ending up with degraded performance if estimated_entry_charge is very significantly wrong. Too low leads to under-utilized hash table, which wastes a bit of (tracked) memory and likely increases access times due to larger working set size (more TLB misses). Too high leads to fully populated hash table (at some limit with reasonable lookup performance) and not being able to cache as many objects as the memory limit would allow. In either case, performance degradation is graceful/continuous but can be quite significant. For example, cutting block size in half without updating estimated_entry_charge could lead to a large portion of configured block cache memory (up to roughly 1/3) going unused. Fix. This change adds a mechanism through which the DB periodically probes the block cache(s) for "problems" to report, and adds diagnostics to the HyperClockCache for bad estimated_entry_charge. The periodic probing is currently done with DumpStats / stats_dump_period_sec, and diagnostics reported to info_log (normally LOG file). Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/10965 Test Plan: unit test included. Doesn't cover all the implemented subtleties of reporting, but ensures basics of when to report or not. Also manual testing with db_bench. Create db with ``` ./db_bench --benchmarks=fillrandom,flush --num=3000000 --disable_wal=1 ``` Use and check LOG file for HyperClockCache for various block sizes (used as estimated_entry_charge) ``` ./db_bench --use_existing_db --benchmarks=readrandom --num=3000000 --duration=20 --stats_dump_period_sec=8 --cache_type=hyper_clock_cache -block_size=XXXX ``` Seeing warnings / errors or not as expected.

Placeholder for AutoHyperClockCache, more (#11692) Summary: * The plan is for AutoHyperClockCache to be selected when HyperClockCacheOptions::estimated_entry_charge == 0, and in that case to use a new configuration option min_avg_entry_charge for determining an extreme case maximum size for the hash table. For the placeholder, a hack is in place in HyperClockCacheOptions::MakeSharedCache() to make the unit tests happy despite the new options not really making sense with the current implementation. * Mostly updating and refactoring tests to test both the current HCC (internal name FixedHyperClockCache) and a placeholder for the new version (internal name AutoHyperClockCache). * Simplify some existing tests not to depend directly on cache type. * Type-parameterize the shard-level unit tests, which unfortunately requires more syntax like `this->` in places for disambiguation. * Added means of choosing auto_hyper_clock_cache to cache_bench, db_bench, and db_stress, including add to crash test. * Add another templated class BaseHyperClockCache to reduce future copy-paste * Added ReportProblems support to cache_bench * Added a DEBUG-level diagnostic to ReportProblems for the variance in load factor throughout the table, which will become more of a concern with linear hashing to be used in the Auto implementation. Example with current Fixed HCC: ``` 2023/08/10-13:41:41.602450 6ac36 [DEBUG] [che/clock_cache.cc:1507] Slot occupancy stats: Overall 49% (129008/262144), Min/Max/Window = 39%/60%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 18/17 ``` In other words, with overall occupancy of 49%, the lowest across any 500 contiguous cells is 39% and highest 60%.

Towards a production-quality ClockCache (#10418) Summary: In this PR we bring ClockCache closer to production quality. We implement the following changes: 1. Fixed a few bugs in ClockCache. 2. ClockCache now fully supports ``strict_capacity_limit == false``: When an insertion over capacity is commanded, we allocate a handle separately from the hash table. 3. ClockCache now runs on almost every test in cache_test. The only exceptions are a test where either the LRU policy is required, and a test that dynamically increases the table capacity. 4. ClockCache now supports dynamically decreasing capacity via SetCapacity. (This is easy: we shrink the capacity upper bound and run the clock algorithm.) 5. Old FastLRUCache tests in lru_cache_test.cc are now also used on ClockCache. As a byproduct of 1. and 2. we are able to turn on ClockCache in the stress tests.

Revamp, optimize new experimental clock cache (#10626) Summary: * Consolidates most metadata into a single word per slot so that more can be accomplished with a single atomic update. In the common case, Lookup was previously about 4 atomic updates, now just 1 atomic update. Common case Release was previously 1 atomic read + 1 atomic update, now just 1 atomic update. * Eliminate spins / waits / yields, which likely threaten some "lock free" benefits. Compare-exchange loops are only used in explicit Erase, and strict_capacity_limit=true Insert. Eviction uses opportunistic compare- exchange. * Relaxes some aggressiveness and guarantees. For example, * Duplicate Inserts will sometimes go undetected and the shadow duplicate will age out with eviction. * In many cases, the older Inserted value for a given cache key will be kept (i.e. Insert does not support overwrite). * Entries explicitly erased (rather than evicted) might not be freed immediately in some rare cases. * With strict_capacity_limit=false, capacity limit is not tracked/enforced as precisely as LRUCache, but is self-correcting and should only deviate by a very small number of extra or fewer entries. * Use smaller "computed default" number of cache shards in many cases, because benefits to larger usage tracking / eviction pools outweigh the small cost of more lock-free atomic contention. The improvement in CPU and I/O is dramatic in some limit-memory cases. * Even without the sharding change, the eviction algorithm is likely more effective than LRU overall because it's more stateful, even though the "hot path" state tracking for it is essentially free with ref counting. It is like a generalized CLOCK with aging (see code comments). I don't have performance numbers showing a specific improvement, but in theory, for a Poisson access pattern to each block, keeping some state allows better estimation of time to next access (Poisson interval) than strict LRU. The bounded randomness in CLOCK can also reduce "cliff" effect for repeated range scans approaching and exceeding cache size. ## Hot path algorithm comparison Rough descriptions, focusing on number and kind of atomic operations: * Old `Lookup()` (2-5 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment internal ref count at slot If possible hit: Check flags atomic (and non-atomic fields) If cache hit: Three distinct updates to 'flags' atomic Increment refs for internal-to-external Return Decrement internal ref count while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * New `Lookup()` (1-2 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment acquire counter in meta word (optimistic) If visible entry (already read meta word): If match (read non-atomic fields): Return Else: Decrement acquire counter in meta word Else if invisible entry (rare, already read meta word): Decrement acquire counter in meta word while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * Old `Release()` (1 atomic update, conditional on atomic read, rarely more): ``` Read atomic ref count If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return Else: Decrement ref count ``` * New `Release()` (1 unconditional atomic update, rarely more): ``` Increment release counter in meta word If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return ``` ## Performance test setup Build DB with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` Test with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=${CACHE_MB}000000 -duration 60 -threads=$THREADS -statistics ``` Numbers on a single socket Skylake Xeon system with 48 hardware threads, DEBUG_LEVEL=0 PORTABLE=0. Very similar story on a dual socket system with 80 hardware threads. Using (every 2nd) Fibonacci MB cache sizes to sample the territory between powers of two. Configurations: base: LRUCache before this change, but with db_bench change to default cache_numshardbits=-1 (instead of fixed at 6) folly: LRUCache before this change, with folly enabled (distributed mutex) but on an old compiler (sorry) gt_clock: experimental ClockCache before this change new_clock: experimental ClockCache with this change ## Performance test results First test "hot path" read performance, with block cache large enough for whole DB: 4181MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 47.761 4181MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 45.877 4181MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 51.092 4181MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 53.944 4181MB 16thread base -> kops/s: 284.567 4181MB 16thread folly -> kops/s: 249.015 4181MB 16thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 743.762 4181MB 16thread new_clock -> kops/s: 861.821 4181MB 24thread base -> kops/s: 303.415 4181MB 24thread folly -> kops/s: 266.548 4181MB 24thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 975.706 4181MB 24thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1205.64 (~= 24 * 53.944) 4181MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 311.251 4181MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 274.952 4181MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 1045.98 4181MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1370.38 4181MB 48thread base -> kops/s: 310.504 4181MB 48thread folly -> kops/s: 268.322 4181MB 48thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 1195.65 4181MB 48thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1604.85 (~= 24 * 1.25 * 53.944) 4181MB 64thread base -> kops/s: 307.839 4181MB 64thread folly -> kops/s: 272.172 4181MB 64thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 1204.47 4181MB 64thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1615.37 4181MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 310.934 4181MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 267.468 4181MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 1188.75 4181MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1595.46 Whether we have just one thread on a quiet system or an overload of threads, the new version wins every time in thousand-ops per second, sometimes dramatically so. Mutex-based implementation quickly becomes contention-limited. New clock cache shows essentially perfect scaling up to number of physical cores (24), and then each hyperthreaded core adding about 1/4 the throughput of an additional physical core (see 48 thread case). Block cache miss rates (omitted above) are negligible across the board. With partitioned instead of full filters, the maximum speed-up vs. base is more like 2.5x rather than 5x.

This new clock cache only uses two shards for this configuration, and that helps to ensure that entries are part of a sufficiently big pool that their eviction order resembles the single-shard order.

Refactor ShardedCache for more sharing, static polymorphism (#10801) Summary: The motivations for this change include * Free up space in ClockHandle so that we can add data for secondary cache handling while still keeping within single cache line (64 byte) size. * This change frees up space by eliminating the need for the `hash` field by making the fixed-size key itself a hash, using a 128-bit bijective (lossless) hash. * Generally more customizability of ShardedCache (such as hashing) without worrying about virtual call overheads * ShardedCache now uses static polymorphism (template) instead of dynamic polymorphism (virtual overrides) for the CacheShard. No obvious performance benefit is seen from the change (as mostly expected; most calls to virtual functions in CacheShard could already be optimized to static calls), but offers more flexibility without incurring the runtime cost of adhering to a common interface (without type parameters or static callbacks). * You'll also notice less `reinterpret_cast`ing and other boilerplate in the Cache implementations, as this can go in ShardedCache. More detail: * Don't have LRUCacheShard maintain `std::shared_ptr<SecondaryCache>` copies (extra refcount) when LRUCache can be in charge of keeping a `shared_ptr`. * Renamed `capacity_mutex_` to `config_mutex_` to better represent the scope of what it guards. * Some preparation for 64-bit hash and indexing in LRUCache, but didn't include the full change because of slight performance regression. Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/10801 Test Plan: Unit test updates were non-trivial because of major changes to the ClockCacheShard interface in handling of key vs. hash.

Refactor ShardedCache for more sharing, static polymorphism (#10801) Summary: The motivations for this change include * Free up space in ClockHandle so that we can add data for secondary cache handling while still keeping within single cache line (64 byte) size. * This change frees up space by eliminating the need for the `hash` field by making the fixed-size key itself a hash, using a 128-bit bijective (lossless) hash. * Generally more customizability of ShardedCache (such as hashing) without worrying about virtual call overheads * ShardedCache now uses static polymorphism (template) instead of dynamic polymorphism (virtual overrides) for the CacheShard. No obvious performance benefit is seen from the change (as mostly expected; most calls to virtual functions in CacheShard could already be optimized to static calls), but offers more flexibility without incurring the runtime cost of adhering to a common interface (without type parameters or static callbacks). * You'll also notice less `reinterpret_cast`ing and other boilerplate in the Cache implementations, as this can go in ShardedCache. More detail: * Don't have LRUCacheShard maintain `std::shared_ptr<SecondaryCache>` copies (extra refcount) when LRUCache can be in charge of keeping a `shared_ptr`. * Renamed `capacity_mutex_` to `config_mutex_` to better represent the scope of what it guards. * Some preparation for 64-bit hash and indexing in LRUCache, but didn't include the full change because of slight performance regression.

Some small improvements to HyperClockCache (#11601) Summary: Stacked on https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/11572 * Minimize use of std::function and lambdas to minimize chances of compiler heap-allocating closures (unnecessary stress on allocator). It appears that converting FindSlot to a template enables inlining the lambda parameters, avoiding heap allocations. * Clean up some logic with FindSlot (FIXMEs from https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/11572) * Fix handling of rare case of probing all slots, with new unit test. (Previously Insert would not roll back displacements in that case, which would kill performance if it were to happen.) * Add an -early_exit option to cache_bench for gathering memory stats before deallocation.

Revamp, optimize new experimental clock cache (#10626) Summary: * Consolidates most metadata into a single word per slot so that more can be accomplished with a single atomic update. In the common case, Lookup was previously about 4 atomic updates, now just 1 atomic update. Common case Release was previously 1 atomic read + 1 atomic update, now just 1 atomic update. * Eliminate spins / waits / yields, which likely threaten some "lock free" benefits. Compare-exchange loops are only used in explicit Erase, and strict_capacity_limit=true Insert. Eviction uses opportunistic compare- exchange. * Relaxes some aggressiveness and guarantees. For example, * Duplicate Inserts will sometimes go undetected and the shadow duplicate will age out with eviction. * In many cases, the older Inserted value for a given cache key will be kept (i.e. Insert does not support overwrite). * Entries explicitly erased (rather than evicted) might not be freed immediately in some rare cases. * With strict_capacity_limit=false, capacity limit is not tracked/enforced as precisely as LRUCache, but is self-correcting and should only deviate by a very small number of extra or fewer entries. * Use smaller "computed default" number of cache shards in many cases, because benefits to larger usage tracking / eviction pools outweigh the small cost of more lock-free atomic contention. The improvement in CPU and I/O is dramatic in some limit-memory cases. * Even without the sharding change, the eviction algorithm is likely more effective than LRU overall because it's more stateful, even though the "hot path" state tracking for it is essentially free with ref counting. It is like a generalized CLOCK with aging (see code comments). I don't have performance numbers showing a specific improvement, but in theory, for a Poisson access pattern to each block, keeping some state allows better estimation of time to next access (Poisson interval) than strict LRU. The bounded randomness in CLOCK can also reduce "cliff" effect for repeated range scans approaching and exceeding cache size. ## Hot path algorithm comparison Rough descriptions, focusing on number and kind of atomic operations: * Old `Lookup()` (2-5 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment internal ref count at slot If possible hit: Check flags atomic (and non-atomic fields) If cache hit: Three distinct updates to 'flags' atomic Increment refs for internal-to-external Return Decrement internal ref count while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * New `Lookup()` (1-2 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment acquire counter in meta word (optimistic) If visible entry (already read meta word): If match (read non-atomic fields): Return Else: Decrement acquire counter in meta word Else if invisible entry (rare, already read meta word): Decrement acquire counter in meta word while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * Old `Release()` (1 atomic update, conditional on atomic read, rarely more): ``` Read atomic ref count If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return Else: Decrement ref count ``` * New `Release()` (1 unconditional atomic update, rarely more): ``` Increment release counter in meta word If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return ``` ## Performance test setup Build DB with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` Test with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=${CACHE_MB}000000 -duration 60 -threads=$THREADS -statistics ``` Numbers on a single socket Skylake Xeon system with 48 hardware threads, DEBUG_LEVEL=0 PORTABLE=0.

Mutex-based implementation quickly becomes contention-limited. New clock cache shows essentially perfect scaling up to number of physical cores (24), and then each hyperthreaded core adding about 1/4 the throughput of an additional physical core (see 48 thread case). Block cache miss rates (omitted above) are negligible across the board. With partitioned instead of full filters, the maximum speed-up vs. base is more like 2.5x rather than 5x.

This new clock cache only uses two shards for this configuration, and that helps to ensure that entries are part of a sufficiently big pool that their eviction order resembles the single-shard order.

Major Cache refactoring, CPU efficiency improvement (#10975) Summary: This is several refactorings bundled into one to avoid having to incrementally re-modify uses of Cache several times. Overall, there are breaking changes to Cache class, and it becomes more of low-level interface for implementing caches, especially block cache. New internal APIs make using Cache cleaner than before, and more insulated from block cache evolution. Hopefully, this is the last really big block cache refactoring, because of rather effectively decoupling the implementations from the uses. This change also removes the EXPERIMENTAL designation on the SecondaryCache support in Cache. It seems reasonably mature at this point but still subject to change/evolution (as I warn in the API docs for Cache). The high-level motivation for this refactoring is to minimize code duplication / compounding complexity in adding SecondaryCache support to HyperClockCache (in a later PR). Other benefits listed below. * static_cast lines of code +29 -35 (net removed 6) * reinterpret_cast lines of code +6 -32 (net removed 26) ## cache.h and secondary_cache.h * Always use CacheItemHelper with entries instead of just a Deleter. There are several motivations / justifications: * Simpler for implementations to deal with just one Insert and one Lookup. * Simpler and more efficient implementation because we don't have to track which entries are using helpers and which are using deleters * Gets rid of hack to classify cache entries by their deleter. Instead, the CacheItemHelper includes a CacheEntryRole. This simplifies a lot of code (cache_entry_roles.h almost eliminated). Fixes https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/9428. * Makes it trivial to adjust SecondaryCache behavior based on kind of block (e.g. don't re-compress filter blocks). * It is arguably less convenient for many direct users of Cache, but direct users of Cache are now rare with introduction of typed_cache.h (below). * I considered and rejected an alternative approach in which we reduce customizability by assuming each secondary cache compatible value starts with a Slice referencing the uncompressed block contents (already true or mostly true), but we apparently intend to stack secondary caches. Saving an entry from a compressed secondary to a lower tier requires custom handling offered by SaveToCallback, etc. * Make CreateCallback part of the helper and introduce CreateContext to work with it (alternative to https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/10562). This cleans up the interface while still allowing context to be provided for loading/parsing values into primary cache. This model works for async lookup in BlockBasedTable reader (reader owns a CreateContext) under the assumption that it always waits on secondary cache operations to finish. (Otherwise, the CreateContext could be destroyed while async operation depending on it continues.) This likely contributes most to the observed performance improvement because it saves an std::function backed by a heap allocation. * Use char* for serialized data, e.g. in SaveToCallback, where void* was confusingly used. (We use `char*` for serialized byte data all over RocksDB, with many advantages over `void*`. `memcpy` etc. are legacy APIs that should not be mimicked.) * Add a type alias Cache::ObjectPtr = void*, so that we can better indicate the intent of the void* when it is to be the object associated with a Cache entry. Related: started (but did not complete) a refactoring to move away from "value" of a cache entry toward "object" or "obj". (It is confusing to call Cache a key-value store (like DB) when it is really storing arbitrary in-memory objects, not byte strings.) * Remove unnecessary key param from DeleterFn. This is good for efficiency in HyperClockCache, which does not directly store the cache key in memory. (Alternative to https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/10774) * Add allocator to Cache DeleterFn. This is a kind of future-proofing change in case we get more serious about using the Cache allocator for memory tracked by the Cache. Right now, only the uncompressed block contents are allocated using the allocator, and a pointer to that allocator is saved as part of the cached object so that the deleter can use it. (See CacheAllocationPtr.) If in the future we are able to "flatten out" our Cache objects some more, it would be good not to have to track the allocator as part of each object. * Removes legacy `ApplyToAllCacheEntries` and changes `ApplyToAllEntries` signature for Deleter->CacheItemHelper change. ## typed_cache.h Adds various "typed" interfaces to the Cache as internal APIs, so that most uses of Cache can use simple type safe code without casting and without explicit deleters, etc. Almost all of the non-test, non-glue code uses of Cache have been migrated. (Follow-up work: CompressedSecondaryCache deserves deeper attention to migrate.) This change expands RocksDB's internal usage of metaprogramming and SFINAE (https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/sfinae). The existing usages of Cache are divided up at a high level into these new interfaces. See updated existing uses of Cache for examples of how these are used. * PlaceholderCacheInterface - Used for making cache reservations, with entries that have a charge but no value. * BasicTypedCacheInterface<TValue> - Used for primary cache storage of objects of type TValue, which can be cleaned up with std::default_delete<TValue>. The role is provided by TValue::kCacheEntryRole or given in an optional template parameter. * FullTypedCacheInterface<TValue, TCreateContext> - Used for secondary cache compatible storage of objects of type TValue. In addition to BasicTypedCacheInterface constraints, we require TValue::ContentSlice() to return persistable data. This simplifies usage for the normal case of simple secondary cache compatibility (can give you a Slice to the data already in memory). In addition to TCreateContext performing the role of Cache::CreateContext, it is also expected to provide a factory function for creating TValue. * For each of these, there's a "Shared" version (e.g. FullTypedSharedCacheInterface) that holds a shared_ptr to the Cache, rather than assuming external ownership by holding only a raw `Cache*`. These interfaces introduce specific handle types for each interface instantiation, so that it's easy to see what kind of object is controlled by a handle. (Ultimately, this might not be worth the extra complexity, but it seems OK so far.) Note: I attempted to make the cache 'charge' automatically inferred from the cache object type, such as by expecting an ApproximateMemoryUsage() function, but this is not so clean because there are cases where we need to compute the charge ahead of time and don't want to re-compute it. ## block_cache.h This header is essentially the replacement for the old block_like_traits.h. It includes various things to support block cache access with typed_cache.h for block-based table. ## block_based_table_reader.cc Before this change, accessing the block cache here was an awkward mix of static polymorphism (template TBlocklike) and switch-case on a dynamic BlockType value. This change mostly unifies on static polymorphism, relying on minor hacks in block_cache.h to distinguish variants of Block. We still check BlockType in some places (especially for stats, which could be improved in follow-up work) but at least the BlockType is a static constant from the template parameter. (No more awkward partial redundancy between static and dynamic info.) This likely contributes to the overall performance improvement, but hasn't been tested in isolation. The other key source of simplification here is a more unified system of creating block cache objects: for directly populating from primary cache and for promotion from secondary cache. Both use BlockCreateContext, for context and for factory functions. ## block_based_table_builder.cc, cache_dump_load_impl.cc Before this change, warming caches was super ugly code. Both of these source files had switch statements to basically transition from the dynamic BlockType world to the static TBlocklike world. None of that mess is needed anymore as there's a new, untyped WarmInCache function that handles all the details just as promotion from SecondaryCache would. (Fixes `TODO akanksha: Dedup below code` in block_based_table_builder.cc.) ## Everything else Mostly just updating Cache users to use new typed APIs when reasonably possible, or changed Cache APIs when not.

The improvement for that is likely coming from much simplified code for providing context for secondary cache promotion (CreateCallback/CreateContext), and possibly from less branching in block_based_table_reader. And likely a small improvement from not reconstituting key for DeleterFn.

Revamp, optimize new experimental clock cache (#10626) Summary: * Consolidates most metadata into a single word per slot so that more can be accomplished with a single atomic update. In the common case, Lookup was previously about 4 atomic updates, now just 1 atomic update. Common case Release was previously 1 atomic read + 1 atomic update, now just 1 atomic update. * Eliminate spins / waits / yields, which likely threaten some "lock free" benefits. Compare-exchange loops are only used in explicit Erase, and strict_capacity_limit=true Insert. Eviction uses opportunistic compare- exchange. * Relaxes some aggressiveness and guarantees. For example, * Duplicate Inserts will sometimes go undetected and the shadow duplicate will age out with eviction. * In many cases, the older Inserted value for a given cache key will be kept (i.e. Insert does not support overwrite). * Entries explicitly erased (rather than evicted) might not be freed immediately in some rare cases. * With strict_capacity_limit=false, capacity limit is not tracked/enforced as precisely as LRUCache, but is self-correcting and should only deviate by a very small number of extra or fewer entries. * Use smaller "computed default" number of cache shards in many cases, because benefits to larger usage tracking / eviction pools outweigh the small cost of more lock-free atomic contention. The improvement in CPU and I/O is dramatic in some limit-memory cases. * Even without the sharding change, the eviction algorithm is likely more effective than LRU overall because it's more stateful, even though the "hot path" state tracking for it is essentially free with ref counting. It is like a generalized CLOCK with aging (see code comments). I don't have performance numbers showing a specific improvement, but in theory, for a Poisson access pattern to each block, keeping some state allows better estimation of time to next access (Poisson interval) than strict LRU. The bounded randomness in CLOCK can also reduce "cliff" effect for repeated range scans approaching and exceeding cache size. ## Hot path algorithm comparison Rough descriptions, focusing on number and kind of atomic operations: * Old `Lookup()` (2-5 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment internal ref count at slot If possible hit: Check flags atomic (and non-atomic fields) If cache hit: Three distinct updates to 'flags' atomic Increment refs for internal-to-external Return Decrement internal ref count while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * New `Lookup()` (1-2 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment acquire counter in meta word (optimistic) If visible entry (already read meta word): If match (read non-atomic fields): Return Else: Decrement acquire counter in meta word Else if invisible entry (rare, already read meta word): Decrement acquire counter in meta word while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * Old `Release()` (1 atomic update, conditional on atomic read, rarely more): ``` Read atomic ref count If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return Else: Decrement ref count ``` * New `Release()` (1 unconditional atomic update, rarely more): ``` Increment release counter in meta word If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return ``` ## Performance test setup Build DB with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` Test with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=${CACHE_MB}000000 -duration 60 -threads=$THREADS -statistics ``` Numbers on a single socket Skylake Xeon system with 48 hardware threads, DEBUG_LEVEL=0 PORTABLE=0. Very similar story on a dual socket system with 80 hardware threads. Using (every 2nd) Fibonacci MB cache sizes to sample the territory between powers of two.

Mutex-based implementation quickly becomes contention-limited. New clock cache shows essentially perfect scaling up to number of physical cores (24), and then each hyperthreaded core adding about 1/4 the throughput of an additional physical core (see 48 thread case). Block cache miss rates (omitted above) are negligible across the board. With partitioned instead of full filters, the maximum speed-up vs. base is more like 2.5x rather than 5x.

This new clock cache only uses two shards for this configuration, and that helps to ensure that entries are part of a sufficiently big pool that their eviction order resembles the single-shard order.

Refactor ShardedCache for more sharing, static polymorphism (#10801) Summary: The motivations for this change include * Free up space in ClockHandle so that we can add data for secondary cache handling while still keeping within single cache line (64 byte) size. * This change frees up space by eliminating the need for the `hash` field by making the fixed-size key itself a hash, using a 128-bit bijective (lossless) hash. * Generally more customizability of ShardedCache (such as hashing) without worrying about virtual call overheads * ShardedCache now uses static polymorphism (template) instead of dynamic polymorphism (virtual overrides) for the CacheShard. No obvious performance benefit is seen from the change (as mostly expected; most calls to virtual functions in CacheShard could already be optimized to static calls), but offers more flexibility without incurring the runtime cost of adhering to a common interface (without type parameters or static callbacks). * You'll also notice less `reinterpret_cast`ing and other boilerplate in the Cache implementations, as this can go in ShardedCache. More detail: * Don't have LRUCacheShard maintain `std::shared_ptr<SecondaryCache>` copies (extra refcount) when LRUCache can be in charge of keeping a `shared_ptr`. * Renamed `capacity_mutex_` to `config_mutex_` to better represent the scope of what it guards. * Some preparation for 64-bit hash and indexing in LRUCache, but didn't include the full change because of slight performance regression.

Refactor ShardedCache for more sharing, static polymorphism (#10801) Summary: The motivations for this change include * Free up space in ClockHandle so that we can add data for secondary cache handling while still keeping within single cache line (64 byte) size. * This change frees up space by eliminating the need for the `hash` field by making the fixed-size key itself a hash, using a 128-bit bijective (lossless) hash. * Generally more customizability of ShardedCache (such as hashing) without worrying about virtual call overheads * ShardedCache now uses static polymorphism (template) instead of dynamic polymorphism (virtual overrides) for the CacheShard. No obvious performance benefit is seen from the change (as mostly expected; most calls to virtual functions in CacheShard could already be optimized to static calls), but offers more flexibility without incurring the runtime cost of adhering to a common interface (without type parameters or static callbacks). * You'll also notice less `reinterpret_cast`ing and other boilerplate in the Cache implementations, as this can go in ShardedCache. More detail: * Don't have LRUCacheShard maintain `std::shared_ptr<SecondaryCache>` copies (extra refcount) when LRUCache can be in charge of keeping a `shared_ptr`. * Renamed `capacity_mutex_` to `config_mutex_` to better represent the scope of what it guards. * Some preparation for 64-bit hash and indexing in LRUCache, but didn't include the full change because of slight performance regression. Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/10801 Test Plan: Unit test updates were non-trivial because of major changes to the ClockCacheShard interface in handling of key vs. hash. Performance: Create with `TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16` Test with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom[-X1000] -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=610000000 -duration 20 -threads=16 ``` Before: `readrandom [AVG 150 runs] : 321147 (± 253) ops/sec` After: `readrandom [AVG 150 runs] : 321530 (± 326) ops/sec` So possibly ~0.1% improvement. And with `-cache_type=hyper_clock_cache`: Before: `readrandom [AVG 30 runs] : 614126 (± 7978) ops/sec` After: `readrandom [AVG 30 runs] : 645349 (± 8087) ops/sec` So roughly 5% improvement!

Revamp, optimize new experimental clock cache (#10626) Summary: * Consolidates most metadata into a single word per slot so that more can be accomplished with a single atomic update. In the common case, Lookup was previously about 4 atomic updates, now just 1 atomic update. Common case Release was previously 1 atomic read + 1 atomic update, now just 1 atomic update. * Eliminate spins / waits / yields, which likely threaten some "lock free" benefits. Compare-exchange loops are only used in explicit Erase, and strict_capacity_limit=true Insert. Eviction uses opportunistic compare- exchange. * Relaxes some aggressiveness and guarantees. For example, * Duplicate Inserts will sometimes go undetected and the shadow duplicate will age out with eviction. * In many cases, the older Inserted value for a given cache key will be kept (i.e. Insert does not support overwrite). * Entries explicitly erased (rather than evicted) might not be freed immediately in some rare cases. * With strict_capacity_limit=false, capacity limit is not tracked/enforced as precisely as LRUCache, but is self-correcting and should only deviate by a very small number of extra or fewer entries. * Use smaller "computed default" number of cache shards in many cases, because benefits to larger usage tracking / eviction pools outweigh the small cost of more lock-free atomic contention. The improvement in CPU and I/O is dramatic in some limit-memory cases. * Even without the sharding change, the eviction algorithm is likely more effective than LRU overall because it's more stateful, even though the "hot path" state tracking for it is essentially free with ref counting. It is like a generalized CLOCK with aging (see code comments). I don't have performance numbers showing a specific improvement, but in theory, for a Poisson access pattern to each block, keeping some state allows better estimation of time to next access (Poisson interval) than strict LRU. The bounded randomness in CLOCK can also reduce "cliff" effect for repeated range scans approaching and exceeding cache size. ## Hot path algorithm comparison Rough descriptions, focusing on number and kind of atomic operations: * Old `Lookup()` (2-5 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment internal ref count at slot If possible hit: Check flags atomic (and non-atomic fields) If cache hit: Three distinct updates to 'flags' atomic Increment refs for internal-to-external Return Decrement internal ref count while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * New `Lookup()` (1-2 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment acquire counter in meta word (optimistic) If visible entry (already read meta word): If match (read non-atomic fields): Return Else: Decrement acquire counter in meta word Else if invisible entry (rare, already read meta word): Decrement acquire counter in meta word while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * Old `Release()` (1 atomic update, conditional on atomic read, rarely more): ``` Read atomic ref count If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return Else: Decrement ref count ``` * New `Release()` (1 unconditional atomic update, rarely more): ``` Increment release counter in meta word If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return ``` ## Performance test setup Build DB with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` Test with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=${CACHE_MB}000000 -duration 60 -threads=$THREADS -statistics ``` Numbers on a single socket Skylake Xeon system with 48 hardware threads, DEBUG_LEVEL=0 PORTABLE=0. Very similar story on a dual socket system with 80 hardware threads. Using (every 2nd) Fibonacci MB cache sizes to sample the territory between powers of two.

Mutex-based implementation quickly becomes contention-limited. New clock cache shows essentially perfect scaling up to number of physical cores (24), and then each hyperthreaded core adding about 1/4 the throughput of an additional physical core (see 48 thread case). Block cache miss rates (omitted above) are negligible across the board. With partitioned instead of full filters, the maximum speed-up vs. base is more like 2.5x rather than 5x.

(The same bottleneck is not seen with partitioned index+filters.)

This new clock cache only uses two shards for this configuration, and that helps to ensure that entries are part of a sufficiently big pool that their eviction order resembles the single-shard order.

Refactor (Hyper)ClockCache code (#10887) Summary: For clean-up and in preparation for some other anticipated changes, including * A new dynamically-scaling variant of HyperClockCache * SecondaryCache support for HyperClockCache This change does some refactoring for current and future code sharing and reusability. (Including follow-up on https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/10843) ## clock_cache.h * TBD whether new variant will be a HyperClockCache or use some other name, so namespace is just clock_cache for the family of structures. * A number of helper functions introduced and used. * Pre-emptively split ClockHandle (shared among lock-free clock cache variants) and HandleImpl (specific to a kind of Table), and introduce template to plug new Table implementation into ClockCacheShard. ## clock_cache.cc * Mostly using helper functions. Some things like `Rollback()` and `FreeDataMarkEmpty()` were not combined because `Rollback()` is Table-specific while `FreeDataMarkEmpty()` can be used with different table implementations. * Performance testing indicated that despite more opportunities for parallelism, making a local copy of handle data for processing after marking an entry empty was slower than doing that processing before marking the entry empty (but after marking it "under construction"), thus avoiding a few words of copying data. At least for now, this answers the "TODO? Delay freeing?" questions (no).

Automatic table sizing for HyperClockCache (AutoHCC) (#11738) Summary: This change add an experimental next-generation HyperClockCache (HCC) with automatic sizing of the underlying hash table. Both the existing version (stable) and the new version (experimental for now) of HCC are available depending on whether an estimated average entry charge is provided in HyperClockCacheOptions. Internally, we call the two implementations AutoHyperClockCache (new) and FixedHyperClockCache (existing). The performance characteristics and much of the underlying logic are similar enough that AutoHCC is likely to make FixedHCC obsolete, and so it's best considered an evolution of the same technology or solution rather than an alternative. More specifically, both implementations share essentially the same logic for managing the state of individual entries in the cache, including metadata for reference counting and counting clocks for eviction. This metadata, which I like to call the "low-level HCC protocol," includes a read-write lock on entries, but relaxed consistency requirements on the cache (e.g. allowing rare duplication) means high-level cache operations never wait for these low-level per-entry locks. FixedHCC is fully wait-free. AutoHCC is different in how entries are indexed into an efficient hash table. AutoHCC is "essentially wait-free" as there is no pattern of typical high-level operations on a large cache that can lead to one thread waiting on another to complete some work, though it can happen in some unusual/unlucky cases, or atypical uses such as erasing specific cache keys. Table growth and entry reclamation is more complex in AutoHCC compared to FixedHCC, so uses some localized locking to manage that. AutoHCC uses linear hashing to grow the table as needed, with low latency and to a precise size. AutoHCC depends on anonymous mmap support from the OS (currently verified working on Linux, MacOS, and Windows) to allow the array underlying a hash table to grow in place without wasting resident memory on space reserved but unused. AutoHCC uses a form of chaining while FixedHCC uses open addressing and double hashing. More specifics: * In developing this PR, a rare availability bug (minor) was noticed in the existing HCC implementation of Release()+erase_if_last_ref, which is now inherited into AutoHCC. Fixing this without a performance regression will not be simple, so is left for follow-up work. * Some existing unit tests required adjustment of operational parameters or conditions to work with the new behaviors of AutoHCC. A number of bugs were found and fixed in the validation process, including getting unit tests in good working order. * Added an option to cache_bench, `-degenerate_hash_bits` for correctness stress testing described below. For this, the tool uses the reverse-engineered hash function for HCC to generate keys in which the specified number of hash bits, in critical positions, have a fixed value. Essentially each degenerate hash bit will half the number of chain heads utilized and double the average chain length. Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/11738 Test Plan: unit tests updated, and already added to db crash test. Also ## Correctness The code includes generous assertions to check for unexpected states, especially at destruction time, so should be able to detect critical concurrency bugs. Less serious "availability bugs" in which cache data is hidden or cleanly lost are more difficult to detect, but also less scary for data correctness (as long as performance is good and the design is sound). In average operation, the structure is extremely low stress and low contention (see next section) so stressing the corner case logic requires artificially stressing the operating conditions. First, we keep the structure small to increase the number of threads hitting the same chain or entry, and just one cache shard. Second, we artificially degrade the hashing so that chains are much longer than typical, using the new `-degenerate_hash_bits` option to cache_bench. Third, we re-create the structure from scratch frequently in order to exercise the Grow logic repeatedly and to get the benefit of the consistency checks in the structure's destructor in debug builds. For cache_bench this also means disabling the single-threaded "populate cache" step (normally used for steady state performance testing). And of course use many more threads than cores to have many preemptions. An effective test for working out bugs was this (using debug build of course): ``` while ./cache_bench -cache_type=auto_hyper_clock_cache -histograms=0 -cache_size=8000000 -threads=100 -populate_cache=0 -ops_per_thread=10000 -degenerate_hash_bits=6 -num_shard_bits=0; do :; done ``` Or even smaller cases. This setup has around 27 utilized chains, with around 35 entries each, and yield-waits more than 1 million times per second (very high contention; see next section). I have let this run for hours searching for any lingering issues. I've also run cache_bench under ASAN, UBSAN, and TSAN. ## Essentially wait free There is a counter for number of yield() calls when one thread is waiting on another. When we pre-populate the structure in a single thread, ``` ./cache_bench -cache_type=auto_hyper_clock_cache -histograms=0 -populate_cache=1 -ops_per_thread=200000 2>&1 | grep Yield ``` We see something on the order of 1 yield call per second across 16 threads, even when we load the system other other jobs (parallel compilation). With -populate_cache=0, there are more yield opportunities with parallel table growth. On an otherwise unloaded system, we still see very small (single digit) yield counts, with a chance of getting into the thousands, and getting into 10s of thousands per second during table growth phase if the system is loaded with other jobs. However, I am not worried about this if performance is still good (see next section). ## Overall performance Although cache_bench initially suggested performance very close to FixedHCC, there was a very noticeable performance hit under a db_bench setup like used in validating https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/10626. Much of the difference has been reduced by optimizing Lookup with a "naive" pass that will almost always find entries quickly, and only falling back to the careful Lookup algorithm when not found in the first pass. Setups (chosen to be sensitive to block cache performance), and compiled with USE_CLANG=1 JEMALLOC=1 PORTABLE=0 DEBUG_LEVEL=0: ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm base/db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` ### No regression on FixedHCC Running before & after builds at the same time on a 48 core machine. ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm /usr/bin/time ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom[-X10],block_cache_entry_stats,cache_report_problems -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=610000000 -duration 20 -threads=24 -cache_type=fixed_hyper_clock_cache -seed=1234 ``` Before: readrandom [AVG 10 runs] : 847234 (± 8150) ops/sec; 59.2 (± 0.6) MB/sec 703MB max RSS After: readrandom [AVG 10 runs] : 851021 (± 7929) ops/sec; 59.5 (± 0.6) MB/sec 706MB max RSS Probably no material difference. ### Single-threaded performance Using `[-X2]` and `-threads=1` and `-duration=30`, running all three at the same time: lru_cache: 55100 ops/sec, then 55862 ops/sec (627MB max RSS) fixed_hyper_clock_cache: 60496 ops/sec, then 61231 ops/sec (626MB max RSS) auto_hyper_clock_cache: 47560 ops/sec, then 56081 ops/sec (626MB max RSS) So AutoHCC has more ramp-up cost in the first pass as the cache grows to the appropriate size. (In single-threaded operation, the parallelizability and per-op low latency of table growth is overall slower.) However, once up to size, its performance is comparable to LRUCache. FixedHCC's lean operations still win overall when a good estimate is available. If we look at HCC table stats, we can see that this configuration is not favorable to AutoHCC (and I have verified that other memory sizes do not yield substantially different results, until shards are under-sized for the full filters): FixedHCC: Slot occupancy stats: Overall 47% (124991/262144), Min/Max/Window = 28%/64%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 17/22 AutoHCC: Slot occupancy stats: Overall 59% (125781/209682), Min/Max/Window = 43%/82%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 76/16 Head occupancy stats: Overall 43% (92259/209682), Min/Max/Window = 24%/74%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 19/26 Entries at home count: 53350 FixedHCC configuration is relatively good for speed, and not ideal for space utilization. As is typical, AutoHCC has tighter control on metadata usage (209682 x 64 bytes rather than 262144 x 64 bytes), and the higher load factor is slightly worse for speed. LRUCache also has more metadata usage, at 199680 x 96 bytes of tracked metadata (plus roughly another 10% of that untracked in the head pointers), and that metadata is subject to fragmentation. ### Parallel performance, high hit rate Now using `[-X10]` and `-threads=10`, all three at the same time lru_cache: [AVG 10 runs] : 263629 (± 1425) ops/sec; 18.4 (± 0.1) MB/sec 655MB max RSS, 97.1% cache hit rate fixed_hyper_clock_cache: [AVG 10 runs] : 479590 (± 8114) ops/sec; 33.5 (± 0.6) MB/sec 651MB max RSS, 97.1% cache hit rate auto_hyper_clock_cache: [AVG 10 runs] : 418687 (± 5915) ops/sec; 29.3 (± 0.4) MB/sec 657MB max RSS, 97.1% cache hit rate Even with just 10-way parallelism for each cache (though 30+/48 cores busy overall), LRUCache is already showing performance degradation, while AutoHCC is in the neighborhood of FixedHCC. And that brings us to the question of how AutoHCC holds up under extreme parallelism, so now independent runs with `-threads=100` (overloading 48 cores). lru_cache: 438613 ops/sec, 827MB max RSS fixed_hyper_clock_cache: 1651310 ops/sec, 812MB max RSS auto_hyper_clock_cache: 1505875 ops/sec, 821MB max RSS (Yield count: 1089 over 30s) Clearly, AutoHCC holds up extremely well under extreme parallelism, even closing some of the modest performance gap with FixedHCC. ### Parallel performance, low hit rate To get down to roughly 50% cache hit rate, we use `-cache_index_and_filter_blocks=0 -cache_size=1650000000` with `-threads=10`. Here the extra cost of running counting clock eviction, especially on the chains of AutoHCC, are evident, especially with the lower contention of cache_index_and_filter_blocks=0: lru_cache: 725231 ops/sec, 1770MB max RSS, 51.3% hit rate fixed_hyper_clock_cache: 638620 ops/sec, 1765MB max RSS, 50.2% hit rate auto_hyper_clock_cache: 541018 ops/sec, 1777MB max RSS, 50.8% hit rate Reviewed By: jowlyzhang Differential Revision: D48784755 Pulled By: pdillinger fbshipit-source-id: e79813dc087474ac427637dd282a14fa3011a6e4

// Hash table for cache entries that resizes automatically based on occupancy.
// However, it depends on a contiguous memory region to grow into
// incrementally, using linear hashing, so uses an anonymous mmap so that
// only the used portion of the memory region is mapped to physical memory
// (part of RSS).
//
// This table implementation uses the same "low-level protocol" for managing
// the contens of an entry slot as FixedHyperClockTable does, captured in the
// ClockHandle struct. The provides most of the essential data safety, but
// AutoHyperClockTable is another "high-level protocol" for organizing entries
// into a hash table, with automatic resizing.
//
// This implementation is not fully wait-free but we can call it "essentially
// wait-free," and here's why. First, like FixedHyperClockCache, there is no
// locking nor other forms of waiting at the cache or shard level. Also like
// FixedHCC there is essentially an entry-level read-write lock implemented
// with atomics, but our relaxed atomicity/consistency guarantees (e.g.
// duplicate inserts are possible) mean we do not need to wait for entry
// locking. Lookups, non-erasing Releases, and non-evicting non-growing Inserts
// are all fully wait-free. Of course, these waits are not dependent on any
// external factors such as I/O.
//
// For operations that remove entries from a chain or grow the table by
// splitting a chain, there is a chain-level locking mechanism that we call a
// "rewrite" lock, and the only waits are for these locks. On average, each
// chain lock is relevant to < 2 entries each. (The average would be less than
// one entry each, but we do not lock when there's no entry to remove or
// migrate.) And a given thread can only hold two such chain locks at a time,
// more typically just one. So in that sense alone, the waiting that does exist
// is very localized.
//
// If we look closer at the operations utilizing that locking mechanism, we
// can see why it's "essentially wait-free."
// * Grow operations to increase the size of the table: each operation splits
// an existing chain into two, and chains for splitting are chosen in table
// order. Grow operations are fully parallel except for the chain locking, but
// for one Grow operation to wait on another, it has to be feeding into the
// other, which means the table has doubled in size already from other Grow
// operations without the original one finishing. So Grow operations are very
// low latency (unlike LRUCache doubling the table size in one operation) and
// very parallelizeable. (We use some tricks to break up dependencies in
// updating metadata on the usable size of the table.) And obviously Grow
// operations are very rare after the initial population of the table.
// * Evict operations (part of many Inserts): clock updates and evictions
// sweep through the structure in table order, so like Grow operations,
// parallel Evict can only wait on each other if an Evict has lingered (slept)
// long enough that the clock pointer has wrapped around the entire structure.
// * Random erasures (Erase, Release with erase_if_last_ref, etc.): these
// operations are rare and not really considered performance critical.
// Currently they're mostly used for removing placeholder cache entries, e.g.
// for memory tracking, though that could use standalone entries instead to
// avoid potential contention in table operations. It's possible that future
// enhancements could pro-actively remove cache entries from obsolete files,
// but that's not yet implemented.

Placeholder for AutoHyperClockCache, more (#11692) Summary: * The plan is for AutoHyperClockCache to be selected when HyperClockCacheOptions::estimated_entry_charge == 0, and in that case to use a new configuration option min_avg_entry_charge for determining an extreme case maximum size for the hash table. For the placeholder, a hack is in place in HyperClockCacheOptions::MakeSharedCache() to make the unit tests happy despite the new options not really making sense with the current implementation. * Mostly updating and refactoring tests to test both the current HCC (internal name FixedHyperClockCache) and a placeholder for the new version (internal name AutoHyperClockCache). * Simplify some existing tests not to depend directly on cache type. * Type-parameterize the shard-level unit tests, which unfortunately requires more syntax like `this->` in places for disambiguation. * Added means of choosing auto_hyper_clock_cache to cache_bench, db_bench, and db_stress, including add to crash test. * Add another templated class BaseHyperClockCache to reduce future copy-paste * Added ReportProblems support to cache_bench * Added a DEBUG-level diagnostic to ReportProblems for the variance in load factor throughout the table, which will become more of a concern with linear hashing to be used in the Auto implementation. Example with current Fixed HCC: ``` 2023/08/10-13:41:41.602450 6ac36 [DEBUG] [che/clock_cache.cc:1507] Slot occupancy stats: Overall 49% (129008/262144), Min/Max/Window = 39%/60%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 18/17 ``` In other words, with overall occupancy of 49%, the lowest across any 500 contiguous cells is 39% and highest 60%. Longest run of occupied is 18 and longest run of unoccupied is 17. This seems consistent with random samples from a uniform distribution.

For this, the tool uses the reverse-engineered hash function for HCC to generate keys in which the specified number of hash bits, in critical positions, have a fixed value. Essentially each degenerate hash bit will half the number of chain heads utilized and double the average chain length. Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/11738 Test Plan: unit tests updated, and already added to db crash test. Also ## Correctness The code includes generous assertions to check for unexpected states, especially at destruction time, so should be able to detect critical concurrency bugs. Less serious "availability bugs" in which cache data is hidden or cleanly lost are more difficult to detect, but also less scary for data correctness (as long as performance is good and the design is sound). In average operation, the structure is extremely low stress and low contention (see next section) so stressing the corner case logic requires artificially stressing the operating conditions. First, we keep the structure small to increase the number of threads hitting the same chain or entry, and just one cache shard. Second, we artificially degrade the hashing so that chains are much longer than typical, using the new `-degenerate_hash_bits` option to cache_bench. Third, we re-create the structure from scratch frequently in order to exercise the Grow logic repeatedly and to get the benefit of the consistency checks in the structure's destructor in debug builds. For cache_bench this also means disabling the single-threaded "populate cache" step (normally used for steady state performance testing). And of course use many more threads than cores to have many preemptions. An effective test for working out bugs was this (using debug build of course): ``` while ./cache_bench -cache_type=auto_hyper_clock_cache -histograms=0 -cache_size=8000000 -threads=100 -populate_cache=0 -ops_per_thread=10000 -degenerate_hash_bits=6 -num_shard_bits=0; do :; done ``` Or even smaller cases. This setup has around 27 utilized chains, with around 35 entries each, and yield-waits more than 1 million times per second (very high contention; see next section). I have let this run for hours searching for any lingering issues. I've also run cache_bench under ASAN, UBSAN, and TSAN. ## Essentially wait free There is a counter for number of yield() calls when one thread is waiting on another. When we pre-populate the structure in a single thread, ``` ./cache_bench -cache_type=auto_hyper_clock_cache -histograms=0 -populate_cache=1 -ops_per_thread=200000 2>&1 | grep Yield ``` We see something on the order of 1 yield call per second across 16 threads, even when we load the system other other jobs (parallel compilation). With -populate_cache=0, there are more yield opportunities with parallel table growth. On an otherwise unloaded system, we still see very small (single digit) yield counts, with a chance of getting into the thousands, and getting into 10s of thousands per second during table growth phase if the system is loaded with other jobs. However, I am not worried about this if performance is still good (see next section). ## Overall performance Although cache_bench initially suggested performance very close to FixedHCC, there was a very noticeable performance hit under a db_bench setup like used in validating https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/10626. Much of the difference has been reduced by optimizing Lookup with a "naive" pass that will almost always find entries quickly, and only falling back to the careful Lookup algorithm when not found in the first pass. Setups (chosen to be sensitive to block cache performance), and compiled with USE_CLANG=1 JEMALLOC=1 PORTABLE=0 DEBUG_LEVEL=0: ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm base/db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` ### No regression on FixedHCC Running before & after builds at the same time on a 48 core machine. ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm /usr/bin/time ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom[-X10],block_cache_entry_stats,cache_report_problems -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=610000000 -duration 20 -threads=24 -cache_type=fixed_hyper_clock_cache -seed=1234 ``` Before: readrandom [AVG 10 runs] : 847234 (± 8150) ops/sec; 59.2 (± 0.6) MB/sec 703MB max RSS After: readrandom [AVG 10 runs] : 851021 (± 7929) ops/sec; 59.5 (± 0.6) MB/sec 706MB max RSS Probably no material difference. ### Single-threaded performance Using `[-X2]` and `-threads=1` and `-duration=30`, running all three at the same time: lru_cache: 55100 ops/sec, then 55862 ops/sec (627MB max RSS) fixed_hyper_clock_cache: 60496 ops/sec, then 61231 ops/sec (626MB max RSS) auto_hyper_clock_cache: 47560 ops/sec, then 56081 ops/sec (626MB max RSS) So AutoHCC has more ramp-up cost in the first pass as the cache grows to the appropriate size. (In single-threaded operation, the parallelizability and per-op low latency of table growth is overall slower.) However, once up to size, its performance is comparable to LRUCache. FixedHCC's lean operations still win overall when a good estimate is available. If we look at HCC table stats, we can see that this configuration is not favorable to AutoHCC (and I have verified that other memory sizes do not yield substantially different results, until shards are under-sized for the full filters): FixedHCC: Slot occupancy stats: Overall 47% (124991/262144), Min/Max/Window = 28%/64%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 17/22 AutoHCC: Slot occupancy stats: Overall 59% (125781/209682), Min/Max/Window = 43%/82%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 76/16 Head occupancy stats: Overall 43% (92259/209682), Min/Max/Window = 24%/74%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 19/26 Entries at home count: 53350 FixedHCC configuration is relatively good for speed, and not ideal for space utilization. As is typical, AutoHCC has tighter control on metadata usage (209682 x 64 bytes rather than 262144 x 64 bytes), and the higher load factor is slightly worse for speed. LRUCache also has more metadata usage, at 199680 x 96 bytes of tracked metadata (plus roughly another 10% of that untracked in the head pointers), and that metadata is subject to fragmentation. ### Parallel performance, high hit rate Now using `[-X10]` and `-threads=10`, all three at the same time lru_cache: [AVG 10 runs] : 263629 (± 1425) ops/sec; 18.4 (± 0.1) MB/sec 655MB max RSS, 97.1% cache hit rate fixed_hyper_clock_cache: [AVG 10 runs] : 479590 (± 8114) ops/sec; 33.5 (± 0.6) MB/sec 651MB max RSS, 97.1% cache hit rate auto_hyper_clock_cache: [AVG 10 runs] : 418687 (± 5915) ops/sec; 29.3 (± 0.4) MB/sec 657MB max RSS, 97.1% cache hit rate Even with just 10-way parallelism for each cache (though 30+/48 cores busy overall), LRUCache is already showing performance degradation, while AutoHCC is in the neighborhood of FixedHCC. And that brings us to the question of how AutoHCC holds up under extreme parallelism, so now independent runs with `-threads=100` (overloading 48 cores). lru_cache: 438613 ops/sec, 827MB max RSS fixed_hyper_clock_cache: 1651310 ops/sec, 812MB max RSS auto_hyper_clock_cache: 1505875 ops/sec, 821MB max RSS (Yield count: 1089 over 30s) Clearly, AutoHCC holds up extremely well under extreme parallelism, even closing some of the modest performance gap with FixedHCC. ### Parallel performance, low hit rate To get down to roughly 50% cache hit rate, we use `-cache_index_and_filter_blocks=0 -cache_size=1650000000` with `-threads=10`. Here the extra cost of running counting clock eviction, especially on the chains of AutoHCC, are evident, especially with the lower contention of cache_index_and_filter_blocks=0: lru_cache: 725231 ops/sec, 1770MB max RSS, 51.3% hit rate fixed_hyper_clock_cache: 638620 ops/sec, 1765MB max RSS, 50.2% hit rate auto_hyper_clock_cache: 541018 ops/sec, 1777MB max RSS, 50.8% hit rate Reviewed By: jowlyzhang Differential Revision: D48784755 Pulled By: pdillinger fbshipit-source-id: e79813dc087474ac427637dd282a14fa3011a6e4

// Handles ("slots") in the pre-allocated array. To improve CPU cache
// locality, the chain head pointers are interleved with the entries;
// specifically, a Handle contains
// * A head pointer for a chain of entries with this "home" location.

// fully wait-free:
// * Each "with_shift" pointer contains a shift count that indicates
// how many hash bits were used in chosing the home address for the
// chain--specifically the next entry in the chain.
// * The end of a chain is given a special "end" marker and refers back
// to the head of the chain.
//
// Why do we need shift on each pointer? To make Lookup wait-free, we need
// to be able to query a chain without missing anything, and preferably

// Why do we need the end of the chain to loop back? If Lookup pauses
// at an "under construction" entry, and sees that "next" is null after
// waking up, we need something to tell whether the "under construction"
// entry was freed and reused for another chain. Otherwise, we could
// miss entries still on the original chain due in the presence of a

Automatic table sizing for HyperClockCache (AutoHCC) (#11738) Summary: This change add an experimental next-generation HyperClockCache (HCC) with automatic sizing of the underlying hash table. Both the existing version (stable) and the new version (experimental for now) of HCC are available depending on whether an estimated average entry charge is provided in HyperClockCacheOptions. Internally, we call the two implementations AutoHyperClockCache (new) and FixedHyperClockCache (existing). The performance characteristics and much of the underlying logic are similar enough that AutoHCC is likely to make FixedHCC obsolete, and so it's best considered an evolution of the same technology or solution rather than an alternative. More specifically, both implementations share essentially the same logic for managing the state of individual entries in the cache, including metadata for reference counting and counting clocks for eviction. This metadata, which I like to call the "low-level HCC protocol," includes a read-write lock on entries, but relaxed consistency requirements on the cache (e.g. allowing rare duplication) means high-level cache operations never wait for these low-level per-entry locks. FixedHCC is fully wait-free. AutoHCC is different in how entries are indexed into an efficient hash table. AutoHCC is "essentially wait-free" as there is no pattern of typical high-level operations on a large cache that can lead to one thread waiting on another to complete some work, though it can happen in some unusual/unlucky cases, or atypical uses such as erasing specific cache keys. Table growth and entry reclamation is more complex in AutoHCC compared to FixedHCC, so uses some localized locking to manage that. AutoHCC uses linear hashing to grow the table as needed, with low latency and to a precise size. AutoHCC depends on anonymous mmap support from the OS (currently verified working on Linux, MacOS, and Windows) to allow the array underlying a hash table to grow in place without wasting resident memory on space reserved but unused. AutoHCC uses a form of chaining while FixedHCC uses open addressing and double hashing. More specifics: * In developing this PR, a rare availability bug (minor) was noticed in the existing HCC implementation of Release()+erase_if_last_ref, which is now inherited into AutoHCC. Fixing this without a performance regression will not be simple, so is left for follow-up work. * Some existing unit tests required adjustment of operational parameters or conditions to work with the new behaviors of AutoHCC. A number of bugs were found and fixed in the validation process, including getting unit tests in good working order. * Added an option to cache_bench, `-degenerate_hash_bits` for correctness stress testing described below. For this, the tool uses the reverse-engineered hash function for HCC to generate keys in which the specified number of hash bits, in critical positions, have a fixed value. Essentially each degenerate hash bit will half the number of chain heads utilized and double the average chain length.

However, I am not worried about this if performance is still good (see next section). ## Overall performance Although cache_bench initially suggested performance very close to FixedHCC, there was a very noticeable performance hit under a db_bench setup like used in validating https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/10626. Much of the difference has been reduced by optimizing Lookup with a "naive" pass that will almost always find entries quickly, and only falling back to the careful Lookup algorithm when not found in the first pass. Setups (chosen to be sensitive to block cache performance), and compiled with USE_CLANG=1 JEMALLOC=1 PORTABLE=0 DEBUG_LEVEL=0: ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm base/db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` ### No regression on FixedHCC Running before & after builds at the same time on a 48 core machine. ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm /usr/bin/time ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom[-X10],block_cache_entry_stats,cache_report_problems -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=610000000 -duration 20 -threads=24 -cache_type=fixed_hyper_clock_cache -seed=1234 ``` Before: readrandom [AVG 10 runs] : 847234 (± 8150) ops/sec; 59.2 (± 0.6) MB/sec 703MB max RSS After: readrandom [AVG 10 runs] : 851021 (± 7929) ops/sec; 59.5 (± 0.6) MB/sec 706MB max RSS Probably no material difference. ### Single-threaded performance Using `[-X2]` and `-threads=1` and `-duration=30`, running all three at the same time: lru_cache: 55100 ops/sec, then 55862 ops/sec (627MB max RSS) fixed_hyper_clock_cache: 60496 ops/sec, then 61231 ops/sec (626MB max RSS) auto_hyper_clock_cache: 47560 ops/sec, then 56081 ops/sec (626MB max RSS) So AutoHCC has more ramp-up cost in the first pass as the cache grows to the appropriate size. (In single-threaded operation, the parallelizability and per-op low latency of table growth is overall slower.) However, once up to size, its performance is comparable to LRUCache. FixedHCC's lean operations still win overall when a good estimate is available. If we look at HCC table stats, we can see that this configuration is not favorable to AutoHCC (and I have verified that other memory sizes do not yield substantially different results, until shards are under-sized for the full filters): FixedHCC: Slot occupancy stats: Overall 47% (124991/262144), Min/Max/Window = 28%/64%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 17/22 AutoHCC: Slot occupancy stats: Overall 59% (125781/209682), Min/Max/Window = 43%/82%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 76/16 Head occupancy stats: Overall 43% (92259/209682), Min/Max/Window = 24%/74%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 19/26 Entries at home count: 53350 FixedHCC configuration is relatively good for speed, and not ideal for space utilization. As is typical, AutoHCC has tighter control on metadata usage (209682 x 64 bytes rather than 262144 x 64 bytes), and the higher load factor is slightly worse for speed. LRUCache also has more metadata usage, at 199680 x 96 bytes of tracked metadata (plus roughly another 10% of that untracked in the head pointers), and that metadata is subject to fragmentation. ### Parallel performance, high hit rate Now using `[-X10]` and `-threads=10`, all three at the same time lru_cache: [AVG 10 runs] : 263629 (± 1425) ops/sec; 18.4 (± 0.1) MB/sec 655MB max RSS, 97.1% cache hit rate fixed_hyper_clock_cache: [AVG 10 runs] : 479590 (± 8114) ops/sec; 33.5 (± 0.6) MB/sec 651MB max RSS, 97.1% cache hit rate auto_hyper_clock_cache: [AVG 10 runs] : 418687 (± 5915) ops/sec; 29.3 (± 0.4) MB/sec 657MB max RSS, 97.1% cache hit rate Even with just 10-way parallelism for each cache (though 30+/48 cores busy overall), LRUCache is already showing performance degradation, while AutoHCC is in the neighborhood of FixedHCC. And that brings us to the question of how AutoHCC holds up under extreme parallelism, so now independent runs with `-threads=100` (overloading 48 cores). lru_cache: 438613 ops/sec, 827MB max RSS fixed_hyper_clock_cache: 1651310 ops/sec, 812MB max RSS auto_hyper_clock_cache: 1505875 ops/sec, 821MB max RSS (Yield count: 1089 over 30s) Clearly, AutoHCC holds up extremely well under extreme parallelism, even closing some of the modest performance gap with FixedHCC. ### Parallel performance, low hit rate To get down to roughly 50% cache hit rate, we use `-cache_index_and_filter_blocks=0 -cache_size=1650000000` with `-threads=10`. Here the extra cost of running counting clock eviction, especially on the chains of AutoHCC, are evident, especially with the lower contention of cache_index_and_filter_blocks=0: lru_cache: 725231 ops/sec, 1770MB max RSS, 51.3% hit rate fixed_hyper_clock_cache: 638620 ops/sec, 1765MB max RSS, 50.2% hit rate auto_hyper_clock_cache: 541018 ops/sec, 1777MB max RSS, 50.8% hit rate Reviewed By: jowlyzhang Differential Revision: D48784755 Pulled By: pdillinger fbshipit-source-id: e79813dc087474ac427637dd282a14fa3011a6e4

Automatic table sizing for HyperClockCache (AutoHCC) (#11738) Summary: This change add an experimental next-generation HyperClockCache (HCC) with automatic sizing of the underlying hash table. Both the existing version (stable) and the new version (experimental for now) of HCC are available depending on whether an estimated average entry charge is provided in HyperClockCacheOptions. Internally, we call the two implementations AutoHyperClockCache (new) and FixedHyperClockCache (existing). The performance characteristics and much of the underlying logic are similar enough that AutoHCC is likely to make FixedHCC obsolete, and so it's best considered an evolution of the same technology or solution rather than an alternative. More specifically, both implementations share essentially the same logic for managing the state of individual entries in the cache, including metadata for reference counting and counting clocks for eviction. This metadata, which I like to call the "low-level HCC protocol," includes a read-write lock on entries, but relaxed consistency requirements on the cache (e.g. allowing rare duplication) means high-level cache operations never wait for these low-level per-entry locks. FixedHCC is fully wait-free. AutoHCC is different in how entries are indexed into an efficient hash table. AutoHCC is "essentially wait-free" as there is no pattern of typical high-level operations on a large cache that can lead to one thread waiting on another to complete some work, though it can happen in some unusual/unlucky cases, or atypical uses such as erasing specific cache keys. Table growth and entry reclamation is more complex in AutoHCC compared to FixedHCC, so uses some localized locking to manage that. AutoHCC uses linear hashing to grow the table as needed, with low latency and to a precise size. AutoHCC depends on anonymous mmap support from the OS (currently verified working on Linux, MacOS, and Windows) to allow the array underlying a hash table to grow in place without wasting resident memory on space reserved but unused. AutoHCC uses a form of chaining while FixedHCC uses open addressing and double hashing. More specifics: * In developing this PR, a rare availability bug (minor) was noticed in the existing HCC implementation of Release()+erase_if_last_ref, which is now inherited into AutoHCC. Fixing this without a performance regression will not be simple, so is left for follow-up work. * Some existing unit tests required adjustment of operational parameters or conditions to work with the new behaviors of AutoHCC. A number of bugs were found and fixed in the validation process, including getting unit tests in good working order. * Added an option to cache_bench, `-degenerate_hash_bits` for correctness stress testing described below. For this, the tool uses the reverse-engineered hash function for HCC to generate keys in which the specified number of hash bits, in critical positions, have a fixed value. Essentially each degenerate hash bit will half the number of chain heads utilized and double the average chain length. Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/11738 Test Plan: unit tests updated, and already added to db crash test. Also ## Correctness The code includes generous assertions to check for unexpected states, especially at destruction time, so should be able to detect critical concurrency bugs. Less serious "availability bugs" in which cache data is hidden or cleanly lost are more difficult to detect, but also less scary for data correctness (as long as performance is good and the design is sound). In average operation, the structure is extremely low stress and low contention (see next section) so stressing the corner case logic requires artificially stressing the operating conditions. First, we keep the structure small to increase the number of threads hitting the same chain or entry, and just one cache shard. Second, we artificially degrade the hashing so that chains are much longer than typical, using the new `-degenerate_hash_bits` option to cache_bench. Third, we re-create the structure from scratch frequently in order to exercise the Grow logic repeatedly and to get the benefit of the consistency checks in the structure's destructor in debug builds. For cache_bench this also means disabling the single-threaded "populate cache" step (normally used for steady state performance testing). And of course use many more threads than cores to have many preemptions. An effective test for working out bugs was this (using debug build of course): ``` while ./cache_bench -cache_type=auto_hyper_clock_cache -histograms=0 -cache_size=8000000 -threads=100 -populate_cache=0 -ops_per_thread=10000 -degenerate_hash_bits=6 -num_shard_bits=0; do :; done ``` Or even smaller cases. This setup has around 27 utilized chains, with around 35 entries each, and yield-waits more than 1 million times per second (very high contention; see next section). I have let this run for hours searching for any lingering issues. I've also run cache_bench under ASAN, UBSAN, and TSAN. ## Essentially wait free There is a counter for number of yield() calls when one thread is waiting on another. When we pre-populate the structure in a single thread, ``` ./cache_bench -cache_type=auto_hyper_clock_cache -histograms=0 -populate_cache=1 -ops_per_thread=200000 2>&1 | grep Yield ``` We see something on the order of 1 yield call per second across 16 threads, even when we load the system other other jobs (parallel compilation). With -populate_cache=0, there are more yield opportunities with parallel table growth. On an otherwise unloaded system, we still see very small (single digit) yield counts, with a chance of getting into the thousands, and getting into 10s of thousands per second during table growth phase if the system is loaded with other jobs.

Cap eviction effort (CPU under stress) in HyperClockCache (#12141) Summary: HyperClockCache is intended to mitigate performance problems under stress conditions (as well as optimizing average-case parallel performance). In LRUCache, the biggest such problem is lock contention when one or a small number of cache entries becomes particularly hot. Regardless of cache sharding, accesses to any particular cache entry are linearized against a single mutex, which is held while each access updates the LRU list. All HCC variants are fully lock/wait-free for accessing blocks already in the cache, which fully mitigates this contention problem. However, HCC (and CLOCK in general) can exhibit extremely degraded performance under a different stress condition: when no (or almost no) entries in a cache shard are evictable (they are pinned). Unlike LRU which can find any evictable entries immediately (at the cost of more coordination / synchronization on each access), CLOCK has to search for evictable entries. Under the right conditions (almost exclusively MB-scale caches not GB-scale), the CPU cost of each cache miss could fall off a cliff and bog down the whole system. To effectively mitigate this problem (IMHO), I'm introducing a new default behavior and tuning parameter for HCC, `eviction_effort_cap`. See the comments on the new config parameter in the public API. Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/12141 Test Plan: unit test included ## Performance test We can use cache_bench to validate no regression (CPU and memory) in normal operation, and to measure change in behavior when cache is almost entirely pinned. (TODO: I'm not sure why I had to get the pinned ratio parameter well over 1.0 to see truly bad performance, but the behavior is there.) Build with `make DEBUG_LEVEL=0 USE_CLANG=1 PORTABLE=0 cache_bench`. We also set MALLOC_CONF="narenas:1" for all these runs to essentially remove jemalloc variances from the results, so that the max RSS given by /usr/bin/time is essentially ideal (assuming the allocator minimizes fragmentation and other memory overheads well). Base command reproducing bad behavior: ``` ./cache_bench -cache_type=auto_hyper_clock_cache -threads=12 -histograms=0 -pinned_ratio=1.7 ``` ``` Before, LRU (alternate baseline not exhibiting bad behavior): Rough parallel ops/sec = 2290997 1088060 maxresident Before, AutoHCC (bad behavior): Rough parallel ops/sec = 141011 <- Yes, more than 10x slower 1083932 maxresident ``` Now let us sample a range of values in the solution space: ``` After, AutoHCC, eviction_effort_cap = 1: Rough parallel ops/sec = 3212586 2402216 maxresident After, AutoHCC, eviction_effort_cap = 10: Rough parallel ops/sec = 2371639 1248884 maxresident After, AutoHCC, eviction_effort_cap = 30: Rough parallel ops/sec = 1981092 1131596 maxresident After, AutoHCC, eviction_effort_cap = 100: Rough parallel ops/sec = 1446188 1090976 maxresident After, AutoHCC, eviction_effort_cap = 1000: Rough parallel ops/sec = 549568 1084064 maxresident ``` I looks like `cap=30` is a sweet spot balancing acceptable CPU and memory overheads, so is chosen as the default. ``` Change to -pinned_ratio=0.85 Before, LRU: Rough parallel ops/sec = 2108373 1078232 maxresident Before, AutoHCC, averaged over ~20 runs: Rough parallel ops/sec = 2164910 1077312 maxresident After, AutoHCC, eviction_effort_cap = 30, averaged over ~20 runs: Rough parallel ops/sec = 2145542 1077216 maxresident ``` The slight CPU improvement above is consistent with the cap, with no measurable memory overhead under moderate stress. ``` Change to -pinned_ratio=0.25 (low stress) Before, AutoHCC, averaged over ~20 runs: Rough parallel ops/sec = 2221149 1076540 maxresident After, AutoHCC, eviction_effort_cap = 30, averaged over ~20 runs: Rough parallel ops/sec = 2224521 1076664 maxresident ``` No measurable difference under normal circumstances.

If we look at HCC table stats, we can see that this configuration is not favorable to AutoHCC (and I have verified that other memory sizes do not yield substantially different results, until shards are under-sized for the full filters): FixedHCC: Slot occupancy stats: Overall 47% (124991/262144), Min/Max/Window = 28%/64%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 17/22 AutoHCC: Slot occupancy stats: Overall 59% (125781/209682), Min/Max/Window = 43%/82%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 76/16 Head occupancy stats: Overall 43% (92259/209682), Min/Max/Window = 24%/74%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 19/26 Entries at home count: 53350 FixedHCC configuration is relatively good for speed, and not ideal for space utilization. As is typical, AutoHCC has tighter control on metadata usage (209682 x 64 bytes rather than 262144 x 64 bytes), and the higher load factor is slightly worse for speed. LRUCache also has more metadata usage, at 199680 x 96 bytes of tracked metadata (plus roughly another 10% of that untracked in the head pointers), and that metadata is subject to fragmentation. ### Parallel performance, high hit rate Now using `[-X10]` and `-threads=10`, all three at the same time lru_cache: [AVG 10 runs] : 263629 (± 1425) ops/sec; 18.4 (± 0.1) MB/sec 655MB max RSS, 97.1% cache hit rate fixed_hyper_clock_cache: [AVG 10 runs] : 479590 (± 8114) ops/sec; 33.5 (± 0.6) MB/sec 651MB max RSS, 97.1% cache hit rate auto_hyper_clock_cache: [AVG 10 runs] : 418687 (± 5915) ops/sec; 29.3 (± 0.4) MB/sec 657MB max RSS, 97.1% cache hit rate Even with just 10-way parallelism for each cache (though 30+/48 cores busy overall), LRUCache is already showing performance degradation, while AutoHCC is in the neighborhood of FixedHCC. And that brings us to the question of how AutoHCC holds up under extreme parallelism, so now independent runs with `-threads=100` (overloading 48 cores). lru_cache: 438613 ops/sec, 827MB max RSS fixed_hyper_clock_cache: 1651310 ops/sec, 812MB max RSS auto_hyper_clock_cache: 1505875 ops/sec, 821MB max RSS (Yield count: 1089 over 30s) Clearly, AutoHCC holds up extremely well under extreme parallelism, even closing some of the modest performance gap with FixedHCC. ### Parallel performance, low hit rate To get down to roughly 50% cache hit rate, we use `-cache_index_and_filter_blocks=0 -cache_size=1650000000` with `-threads=10`. Here the extra cost of running counting clock eviction, especially on the chains of AutoHCC, are evident, especially with the lower contention of cache_index_and_filter_blocks=0: lru_cache: 725231 ops/sec, 1770MB max RSS, 51.3% hit rate fixed_hyper_clock_cache: 638620 ops/sec, 1765MB max RSS, 50.2% hit rate auto_hyper_clock_cache: 541018 ops/sec, 1777MB max RSS, 50.8% hit rate Reviewed By: jowlyzhang Differential Revision: D48784755 Pulled By: pdillinger fbshipit-source-id: e79813dc087474ac427637dd282a14fa3011a6e4

Cap eviction effort (CPU under stress) in HyperClockCache (#12141) Summary: HyperClockCache is intended to mitigate performance problems under stress conditions (as well as optimizing average-case parallel performance). In LRUCache, the biggest such problem is lock contention when one or a small number of cache entries becomes particularly hot. Regardless of cache sharding, accesses to any particular cache entry are linearized against a single mutex, which is held while each access updates the LRU list. All HCC variants are fully lock/wait-free for accessing blocks already in the cache, which fully mitigates this contention problem. However, HCC (and CLOCK in general) can exhibit extremely degraded performance under a different stress condition: when no (or almost no) entries in a cache shard are evictable (they are pinned). Unlike LRU which can find any evictable entries immediately (at the cost of more coordination / synchronization on each access), CLOCK has to search for evictable entries. Under the right conditions (almost exclusively MB-scale caches not GB-scale), the CPU cost of each cache miss could fall off a cliff and bog down the whole system. To effectively mitigate this problem (IMHO), I'm introducing a new default behavior and tuning parameter for HCC, `eviction_effort_cap`. See the comments on the new config parameter in the public API. Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/12141 Test Plan: unit test included ## Performance test We can use cache_bench to validate no regression (CPU and memory) in normal operation, and to measure change in behavior when cache is almost entirely pinned. (TODO: I'm not sure why I had to get the pinned ratio parameter well over 1.0 to see truly bad performance, but the behavior is there.) Build with `make DEBUG_LEVEL=0 USE_CLANG=1 PORTABLE=0 cache_bench`. We also set MALLOC_CONF="narenas:1" for all these runs to essentially remove jemalloc variances from the results, so that the max RSS given by /usr/bin/time is essentially ideal (assuming the allocator minimizes fragmentation and other memory overheads well).

Automatic table sizing for HyperClockCache (AutoHCC) (#11738) Summary: This change add an experimental next-generation HyperClockCache (HCC) with automatic sizing of the underlying hash table. Both the existing version (stable) and the new version (experimental for now) of HCC are available depending on whether an estimated average entry charge is provided in HyperClockCacheOptions. Internally, we call the two implementations AutoHyperClockCache (new) and FixedHyperClockCache (existing). The performance characteristics and much of the underlying logic are similar enough that AutoHCC is likely to make FixedHCC obsolete, and so it's best considered an evolution of the same technology or solution rather than an alternative. More specifically, both implementations share essentially the same logic for managing the state of individual entries in the cache, including metadata for reference counting and counting clocks for eviction. This metadata, which I like to call the "low-level HCC protocol," includes a read-write lock on entries, but relaxed consistency requirements on the cache (e.g. allowing rare duplication) means high-level cache operations never wait for these low-level per-entry locks. FixedHCC is fully wait-free. AutoHCC is different in how entries are indexed into an efficient hash table. AutoHCC is "essentially wait-free" as there is no pattern of typical high-level operations on a large cache that can lead to one thread waiting on another to complete some work, though it can happen in some unusual/unlucky cases, or atypical uses such as erasing specific cache keys. Table growth and entry reclamation is more complex in AutoHCC compared to FixedHCC, so uses some localized locking to manage that. AutoHCC uses linear hashing to grow the table as needed, with low latency and to a precise size. AutoHCC depends on anonymous mmap support from the OS (currently verified working on Linux, MacOS, and Windows) to allow the array underlying a hash table to grow in place without wasting resident memory on space reserved but unused. AutoHCC uses a form of chaining while FixedHCC uses open addressing and double hashing. More specifics: * In developing this PR, a rare availability bug (minor) was noticed in the existing HCC implementation of Release()+erase_if_last_ref, which is now inherited into AutoHCC. Fixing this without a performance regression will not be simple, so is left for follow-up work. * Some existing unit tests required adjustment of operational parameters or conditions to work with the new behaviors of AutoHCC. A number of bugs were found and fixed in the validation process, including getting unit tests in good working order. * Added an option to cache_bench, `-degenerate_hash_bits` for correctness stress testing described below. For this, the tool uses the reverse-engineered hash function for HCC to generate keys in which the specified number of hash bits, in critical positions, have a fixed value. Essentially each degenerate hash bit will half the number of chain heads utilized and double the average chain length. Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/11738 Test Plan: unit tests updated, and already added to db crash test. Also ## Correctness The code includes generous assertions to check for unexpected states, especially at destruction time, so should be able to detect critical concurrency bugs. Less serious "availability bugs" in which cache data is hidden or cleanly lost are more difficult to detect, but also less scary for data correctness (as long as performance is good and the design is sound). In average operation, the structure is extremely low stress and low contention (see next section) so stressing the corner case logic requires artificially stressing the operating conditions. First, we keep the structure small to increase the number of threads hitting the same chain or entry, and just one cache shard. Second, we artificially degrade the hashing so that chains are much longer than typical, using the new `-degenerate_hash_bits` option to cache_bench. Third, we re-create the structure from scratch frequently in order to exercise the Grow logic repeatedly and to get the benefit of the consistency checks in the structure's destructor in debug builds. For cache_bench this also means disabling the single-threaded "populate cache" step (normally used for steady state performance testing). And of course use many more threads than cores to have many preemptions. An effective test for working out bugs was this (using debug build of course): ``` while ./cache_bench -cache_type=auto_hyper_clock_cache -histograms=0 -cache_size=8000000 -threads=100 -populate_cache=0 -ops_per_thread=10000 -degenerate_hash_bits=6 -num_shard_bits=0; do :; done ``` Or even smaller cases. This setup has around 27 utilized chains, with around 35 entries each, and yield-waits more than 1 million times per second (very high contention; see next section). I have let this run for hours searching for any lingering issues. I've also run cache_bench under ASAN, UBSAN, and TSAN. ## Essentially wait free There is a counter for number of yield() calls when one thread is waiting on another. When we pre-populate the structure in a single thread, ``` ./cache_bench -cache_type=auto_hyper_clock_cache -histograms=0 -populate_cache=1 -ops_per_thread=200000 2>&1 | grep Yield ``` We see something on the order of 1 yield call per second across 16 threads, even when we load the system other other jobs (parallel compilation). With -populate_cache=0, there are more yield opportunities with parallel table growth. On an otherwise unloaded system, we still see very small (single digit) yield counts, with a chance of getting into the thousands, and getting into 10s of thousands per second during table growth phase if the system is loaded with other jobs. However, I am not worried about this if performance is still good (see next section). ## Overall performance Although cache_bench initially suggested performance very close to FixedHCC, there was a very noticeable performance hit under a db_bench setup like used in validating https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/10626. Much of the difference has been reduced by optimizing Lookup with a "naive" pass that will almost always find entries quickly, and only falling back to the careful Lookup algorithm when not found in the first pass. Setups (chosen to be sensitive to block cache performance), and compiled with USE_CLANG=1 JEMALLOC=1 PORTABLE=0 DEBUG_LEVEL=0: ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm base/db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` ### No regression on FixedHCC Running before & after builds at the same time on a 48 core machine. ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm /usr/bin/time ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom[-X10],block_cache_entry_stats,cache_report_problems -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=610000000 -duration 20 -threads=24 -cache_type=fixed_hyper_clock_cache -seed=1234 ``` Before: readrandom [AVG 10 runs] : 847234 (± 8150) ops/sec; 59.2 (± 0.6) MB/sec 703MB max RSS After: readrandom [AVG 10 runs] : 851021 (± 7929) ops/sec; 59.5 (± 0.6) MB/sec 706MB max RSS Probably no material difference. ### Single-threaded performance Using `[-X2]` and `-threads=1` and `-duration=30`, running all three at the same time: lru_cache: 55100 ops/sec, then 55862 ops/sec (627MB max RSS) fixed_hyper_clock_cache: 60496 ops/sec, then 61231 ops/sec (626MB max RSS) auto_hyper_clock_cache: 47560 ops/sec, then 56081 ops/sec (626MB max RSS) So AutoHCC has more ramp-up cost in the first pass as the cache grows to the appropriate size. (In single-threaded operation, the parallelizability and per-op low latency of table growth is overall slower.) However, once up to size, its performance is comparable to LRUCache. FixedHCC's lean operations still win overall when a good estimate is available.

Setups (chosen to be sensitive to block cache performance), and compiled with USE_CLANG=1 JEMALLOC=1 PORTABLE=0 DEBUG_LEVEL=0: ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm base/db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` ### No regression on FixedHCC Running before & after builds at the same time on a 48 core machine. ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm /usr/bin/time ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom[-X10],block_cache_entry_stats,cache_report_problems -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=610000000 -duration 20 -threads=24 -cache_type=fixed_hyper_clock_cache -seed=1234 ``` Before: readrandom [AVG 10 runs] : 847234 (± 8150) ops/sec; 59.2 (± 0.6) MB/sec 703MB max RSS After: readrandom [AVG 10 runs] : 851021 (± 7929) ops/sec; 59.5 (± 0.6) MB/sec 706MB max RSS Probably no material difference. ### Single-threaded performance Using `[-X2]` and `-threads=1` and `-duration=30`, running all three at the same time: lru_cache: 55100 ops/sec, then 55862 ops/sec (627MB max RSS) fixed_hyper_clock_cache: 60496 ops/sec, then 61231 ops/sec (626MB max RSS) auto_hyper_clock_cache: 47560 ops/sec, then 56081 ops/sec (626MB max RSS) So AutoHCC has more ramp-up cost in the first pass as the cache grows to the appropriate size. (In single-threaded operation, the parallelizability and per-op low latency of table growth is overall slower.) However, once up to size, its performance is comparable to LRUCache. FixedHCC's lean operations still win overall when a good estimate is available. If we look at HCC table stats, we can see that this configuration is not favorable to AutoHCC (and I have verified that other memory sizes do not yield substantially different results, until shards are under-sized for the full filters): FixedHCC: Slot occupancy stats: Overall 47% (124991/262144), Min/Max/Window = 28%/64%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 17/22 AutoHCC: Slot occupancy stats: Overall 59% (125781/209682), Min/Max/Window = 43%/82%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 76/16 Head occupancy stats: Overall 43% (92259/209682), Min/Max/Window = 24%/74%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 19/26 Entries at home count: 53350 FixedHCC configuration is relatively good for speed, and not ideal for space utilization. As is typical, AutoHCC has tighter control on metadata usage (209682 x 64 bytes rather than 262144 x 64 bytes), and the higher load factor is slightly worse for speed. LRUCache also has more metadata usage, at 199680 x 96 bytes of tracked metadata (plus roughly another 10% of that untracked in the head pointers), and that metadata is subject to fragmentation. ### Parallel performance, high hit rate Now using `[-X10]` and `-threads=10`, all three at the same time lru_cache: [AVG 10 runs] : 263629 (± 1425) ops/sec; 18.4 (± 0.1) MB/sec 655MB max RSS, 97.1% cache hit rate fixed_hyper_clock_cache: [AVG 10 runs] : 479590 (± 8114) ops/sec; 33.5 (± 0.6) MB/sec 651MB max RSS, 97.1% cache hit rate auto_hyper_clock_cache: [AVG 10 runs] : 418687 (± 5915) ops/sec; 29.3 (± 0.4) MB/sec 657MB max RSS, 97.1% cache hit rate Even with just 10-way parallelism for each cache (though 30+/48 cores busy overall), LRUCache is already showing performance degradation, while AutoHCC is in the neighborhood of FixedHCC. And that brings us to the question of how AutoHCC holds up under extreme parallelism, so now independent runs with `-threads=100` (overloading 48 cores). lru_cache: 438613 ops/sec, 827MB max RSS fixed_hyper_clock_cache: 1651310 ops/sec, 812MB max RSS auto_hyper_clock_cache: 1505875 ops/sec, 821MB max RSS (Yield count: 1089 over 30s) Clearly, AutoHCC holds up extremely well under extreme parallelism, even closing some of the modest performance gap with FixedHCC. ### Parallel performance, low hit rate To get down to roughly 50% cache hit rate, we use `-cache_index_and_filter_blocks=0 -cache_size=1650000000` with `-threads=10`. Here the extra cost of running counting clock eviction, especially on the chains of AutoHCC, are evident, especially with the lower contention of cache_index_and_filter_blocks=0: lru_cache: 725231 ops/sec, 1770MB max RSS, 51.3% hit rate fixed_hyper_clock_cache: 638620 ops/sec, 1765MB max RSS, 50.2% hit rate auto_hyper_clock_cache: 541018 ops/sec, 1777MB max RSS, 50.8% hit rate Reviewed By: jowlyzhang Differential Revision: D48784755 Pulled By: pdillinger fbshipit-source-id: e79813dc087474ac427637dd282a14fa3011a6e4

Fix major performance bug in AutoHCC growth phase (#11871) Summary: ## The Problem Mark Callaghan found a performance bug in yet-unreleased AutoHCC (which should have been found in my own testing). The observed behavior is very slow insertion performance as the table is growing into a very large structure. The root cause is the precarious combination of linear hashing (indexing into the table while allowing growth) and linear probing (for finding an empty slot to insert into). Naively combined, this is a disaster because in linear hashing, part of the table is twice as dense as first probing location as the rest. Thus, even a modest load factor like 0.6 could cause the dense part of the table to degrade to linear search. The code had a correction for this imbalance, which works in steady-state operation, but failed to account for the concentrating effect of table growth. Specifically, newly-added slots were underpopulated which allowed old slots to become over-populated and degrade to linear search, even in single-threaded operation. Here's an example: ``` ./cache_bench -cache_type=auto_hyper_clock_cache -threads=1 -populate_cache=0 -value_bytes=500 -cache_size=3000000000 -histograms=0 -report_problems -ops_per_thread=20000000 -resident_ratio=0.6 ``` AutoHCC: Complete in 774.213 s; Rough parallel ops/sec = 25832 FixedHCC: Complete in 19.630 s; Rough parallel ops/sec = 1018840 LRUCache: Complete in 25.842 s; Rough parallel ops/sec = 773947 ## The Fix One small change is apparently sufficient to fix the problem, but I wanted to re-optimize the whole "finding a good empty slot" algorithm to improve safety margins for good performance and to improve typical case performance. The small change is to track the newly-added slot from Grow in Insert, when applicable, and use that slot for insertion if (a) the home slot is already occupied, and (b) the newly-added slot is empty. This appears to sufficiently load new slots while avoiding over-population of either old or new slots. See `likely_empty_slot`. However I've also made the logic much more resilient to parts of the table becoming over-populated. I tested a variant that used double hashing instead of linear probing and found that hurt steady-state average-case performance, presumably due to loss of locality in the chains. And even conventional double hashing might not be ideally robust against density skew in the table (still present because of home location bias), because double hashing might choose a small increment that could take a long time to iterate to the under-populated part of the table. The compromise that seems to bring the best of each approach is this: do linear probing (+1 at a time) within a small bound (chosen bound of 4 based on performance testing) and then fall back on a double-hashing variant if no slot has been found. The double-hashing variant uses a probing increment that is always close to the golden ratio, relative to the table size, so that any under-populated regions of the table can be found relatively quickly, without introducing any additional skew. And the increment is varied slightly to avoid clustering effects that could happen with a fixed increment (regardless of how big it is). And that leaves us with one remaining problem: the double hashing increment might not be relatively prime to the table size, so the probing sequence might be a cycle that does not cover the full set of slots. To solve this we can use a technique I developed many years ago (probably also developed by others) that simply adds one (in modular arithmetic) whenever we finish a (potentially incomplete) cycle. This is a simple and reasonably efficient way to iterate over all the slots without repetition, regardless of whether the increment is not relatively prime to the table size, or even zero. Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/11871 Test Plan: existing correctness tests, especially ClockCacheTest.ClockTableFull Intended follow-up: make ClockTableFull test more complete for AutoHCC ## Performance Ignoring old AutoHCC performance, as we established above it could be terrible. FixedHCC and LRUCache are unaffected by this change. All tests below include this change. ### Getting up to size, single thread (same cache_bench command as above, all three run at same time) AutoHCC: Complete in 26.724 s; Rough parallel ops/sec = 748400 FixedHCC: Complete in 19.987 s; Rough parallel ops/sec = 1000631 LRUCache: Complete in 28.291 s; Rough parallel ops/sec = 706939 Single-threaded faster than LRUCache (often / sometimes) is good. FixedHCC has an obvious advantage because it starts at full size. ### Multiple threads, steady state, high hit rate ~95% Using `-threads=10 -populate_cache=1 -ops_per_thread=10000000` and still `-resident_ratio=0.6` AutoHCC: Complete in 48.778 s; Rough parallel ops/sec = 2050119 FixedHCC: Complete in 46.569 s; Rough parallel ops/sec = 2147329 LRUCache: Complete in 50.537 s; Rough parallel ops/sec = 1978735 ### Multiple threads, steady state, low hit rate ~50% Change to `-resident_ratio=0.2` AutoHCC: Complete in 49.264 s; Rough parallel ops/sec = 2029884 FixedHCC: Complete in 49.750 s; Rough parallel ops/sec = 2010041 LRUCache: Complete in 53.002 s; Rough parallel ops/sec = 1886713 Don't expect AutoHCC to be consistently faster than FixedHCC, but they are at least similar in these benchmarks.

Automatic table sizing for HyperClockCache (AutoHCC) (#11738) Summary: This change add an experimental next-generation HyperClockCache (HCC) with automatic sizing of the underlying hash table. Both the existing version (stable) and the new version (experimental for now) of HCC are available depending on whether an estimated average entry charge is provided in HyperClockCacheOptions. Internally, we call the two implementations AutoHyperClockCache (new) and FixedHyperClockCache (existing). The performance characteristics and much of the underlying logic are similar enough that AutoHCC is likely to make FixedHCC obsolete, and so it's best considered an evolution of the same technology or solution rather than an alternative. More specifically, both implementations share essentially the same logic for managing the state of individual entries in the cache, including metadata for reference counting and counting clocks for eviction. This metadata, which I like to call the "low-level HCC protocol," includes a read-write lock on entries, but relaxed consistency requirements on the cache (e.g. allowing rare duplication) means high-level cache operations never wait for these low-level per-entry locks. FixedHCC is fully wait-free. AutoHCC is different in how entries are indexed into an efficient hash table. AutoHCC is "essentially wait-free" as there is no pattern of typical high-level operations on a large cache that can lead to one thread waiting on another to complete some work, though it can happen in some unusual/unlucky cases, or atypical uses such as erasing specific cache keys. Table growth and entry reclamation is more complex in AutoHCC compared to FixedHCC, so uses some localized locking to manage that. AutoHCC uses linear hashing to grow the table as needed, with low latency and to a precise size. AutoHCC depends on anonymous mmap support from the OS (currently verified working on Linux, MacOS, and Windows) to allow the array underlying a hash table to grow in place without wasting resident memory on space reserved but unused. AutoHCC uses a form of chaining while FixedHCC uses open addressing and double hashing. More specifics: * In developing this PR, a rare availability bug (minor) was noticed in the existing HCC implementation of Release()+erase_if_last_ref, which is now inherited into AutoHCC. Fixing this without a performance regression will not be simple, so is left for follow-up work. * Some existing unit tests required adjustment of operational parameters or conditions to work with the new behaviors of AutoHCC. A number of bugs were found and fixed in the validation process, including getting unit tests in good working order. * Added an option to cache_bench, `-degenerate_hash_bits` for correctness stress testing described below. For this, the tool uses the reverse-engineered hash function for HCC to generate keys in which the specified number of hash bits, in critical positions, have a fixed value. Essentially each degenerate hash bit will half the number of chain heads utilized and double the average chain length. Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/11738 Test Plan: unit tests updated, and already added to db crash test. Also ## Correctness The code includes generous assertions to check for unexpected states, especially at destruction time, so should be able to detect critical concurrency bugs. Less serious "availability bugs" in which cache data is hidden or cleanly lost are more difficult to detect, but also less scary for data correctness (as long as performance is good and the design is sound). In average operation, the structure is extremely low stress and low contention (see next section) so stressing the corner case logic requires artificially stressing the operating conditions. First, we keep the structure small to increase the number of threads hitting the same chain or entry, and just one cache shard. Second, we artificially degrade the hashing so that chains are much longer than typical, using the new `-degenerate_hash_bits` option to cache_bench. Third, we re-create the structure from scratch frequently in order to exercise the Grow logic repeatedly and to get the benefit of the consistency checks in the structure's destructor in debug builds. For cache_bench this also means disabling the single-threaded "populate cache" step (normally used for steady state performance testing). And of course use many more threads than cores to have many preemptions. An effective test for working out bugs was this (using debug build of course): ``` while ./cache_bench -cache_type=auto_hyper_clock_cache -histograms=0 -cache_size=8000000 -threads=100 -populate_cache=0 -ops_per_thread=10000 -degenerate_hash_bits=6 -num_shard_bits=0; do :; done ``` Or even smaller cases. This setup has around 27 utilized chains, with around 35 entries each, and yield-waits more than 1 million times per second (very high contention; see next section). I have let this run for hours searching for any lingering issues. I've also run cache_bench under ASAN, UBSAN, and TSAN. ## Essentially wait free There is a counter for number of yield() calls when one thread is waiting on another. When we pre-populate the structure in a single thread, ``` ./cache_bench -cache_type=auto_hyper_clock_cache -histograms=0 -populate_cache=1 -ops_per_thread=200000 2>&1 | grep Yield ``` We see something on the order of 1 yield call per second across 16 threads, even when we load the system other other jobs (parallel compilation). With -populate_cache=0, there are more yield opportunities with parallel table growth. On an otherwise unloaded system, we still see very small (single digit) yield counts, with a chance of getting into the thousands, and getting into 10s of thousands per second during table growth phase if the system is loaded with other jobs. However, I am not worried about this if performance is still good (see next section). ## Overall performance Although cache_bench initially suggested performance very close to FixedHCC, there was a very noticeable performance hit under a db_bench setup like used in validating https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/10626.

Cap eviction effort (CPU under stress) in HyperClockCache (#12141) Summary: HyperClockCache is intended to mitigate performance problems under stress conditions (as well as optimizing average-case parallel performance). In LRUCache, the biggest such problem is lock contention when one or a small number of cache entries becomes particularly hot. Regardless of cache sharding, accesses to any particular cache entry are linearized against a single mutex, which is held while each access updates the LRU list. All HCC variants are fully lock/wait-free for accessing blocks already in the cache, which fully mitigates this contention problem. However, HCC (and CLOCK in general) can exhibit extremely degraded performance under a different stress condition: when no (or almost no) entries in a cache shard are evictable (they are pinned). Unlike LRU which can find any evictable entries immediately (at the cost of more coordination / synchronization on each access), CLOCK has to search for evictable entries. Under the right conditions (almost exclusively MB-scale caches not GB-scale), the CPU cost of each cache miss could fall off a cliff and bog down the whole system. To effectively mitigate this problem (IMHO), I'm introducing a new default behavior and tuning parameter for HCC, `eviction_effort_cap`. See the comments on the new config parameter in the public API. Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/12141 Test Plan: unit test included ## Performance test We can use cache_bench to validate no regression (CPU and memory) in normal operation, and to measure change in behavior when cache is almost entirely pinned. (TODO: I'm not sure why I had to get the pinned ratio parameter well over 1.0 to see truly bad performance, but the behavior is there.) Build with `make DEBUG_LEVEL=0 USE_CLANG=1 PORTABLE=0 cache_bench`. We also set MALLOC_CONF="narenas:1" for all these runs to essentially remove jemalloc variances from the results, so that the max RSS given by /usr/bin/time is essentially ideal (assuming the allocator minimizes fragmentation and other memory overheads well). Base command reproducing bad behavior: ``` ./cache_bench -cache_type=auto_hyper_clock_cache -threads=12 -histograms=0 -pinned_ratio=1.7 ``` ``` Before, LRU (alternate baseline not exhibiting bad behavior): Rough parallel ops/sec = 2290997 1088060 maxresident Before, AutoHCC (bad behavior): Rough parallel ops/sec = 141011 <- Yes, more than 10x slower 1083932 maxresident ``` Now let us sample a range of values in the solution space: ``` After, AutoHCC, eviction_effort_cap = 1: Rough parallel ops/sec = 3212586 2402216 maxresident After, AutoHCC, eviction_effort_cap = 10: Rough parallel ops/sec = 2371639 1248884 maxresident After, AutoHCC, eviction_effort_cap = 30: Rough parallel ops/sec = 1981092 1131596 maxresident After, AutoHCC, eviction_effort_cap = 100: Rough parallel ops/sec = 1446188 1090976 maxresident After, AutoHCC, eviction_effort_cap = 1000: Rough parallel ops/sec = 549568 1084064 maxresident ``` I looks like `cap=30` is a sweet spot balancing acceptable CPU and memory overheads, so is chosen as the default. ``` Change to -pinned_ratio=0.85 Before, LRU: Rough parallel ops/sec = 2108373 1078232 maxresident Before, AutoHCC, averaged over ~20 runs: Rough parallel ops/sec = 2164910 1077312 maxresident After, AutoHCC, eviction_effort_cap = 30, averaged over ~20 runs: Rough parallel ops/sec = 2145542 1077216 maxresident ``` The slight CPU improvement above is consistent with the cap, with no measurable memory overhead under moderate stress. ``` Change to -pinned_ratio=0.25 (low stress) Before, AutoHCC, averaged over ~20 runs: Rough parallel ops/sec = 2221149 1076540 maxresident After, AutoHCC, eviction_effort_cap = 30, averaged over ~20 runs: Rough parallel ops/sec = 2224521 1076664 maxresident ``` No measurable difference under normal circumstances.

AutoHCC uses linear hashing to grow the table as needed, with low latency and to a precise size. AutoHCC depends on anonymous mmap support from the OS (currently verified working on Linux, MacOS, and Windows) to allow the array underlying a hash table to grow in place without wasting resident memory on space reserved but unused. AutoHCC uses a form of chaining while FixedHCC uses open addressing and double hashing. More specifics: * In developing this PR, a rare availability bug (minor) was noticed in the existing HCC implementation of Release()+erase_if_last_ref, which is now inherited into AutoHCC. Fixing this without a performance regression will not be simple, so is left for follow-up work. * Some existing unit tests required adjustment of operational parameters or conditions to work with the new behaviors of AutoHCC. A number of bugs were found and fixed in the validation process, including getting unit tests in good working order. * Added an option to cache_bench, `-degenerate_hash_bits` for correctness stress testing described below. For this, the tool uses the reverse-engineered hash function for HCC to generate keys in which the specified number of hash bits, in critical positions, have a fixed value. Essentially each degenerate hash bit will half the number of chain heads utilized and double the average chain length. Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/11738 Test Plan: unit tests updated, and already added to db crash test. Also ## Correctness The code includes generous assertions to check for unexpected states, especially at destruction time, so should be able to detect critical concurrency bugs. Less serious "availability bugs" in which cache data is hidden or cleanly lost are more difficult to detect, but also less scary for data correctness (as long as performance is good and the design is sound). In average operation, the structure is extremely low stress and low contention (see next section) so stressing the corner case logic requires artificially stressing the operating conditions. First, we keep the structure small to increase the number of threads hitting the same chain or entry, and just one cache shard. Second, we artificially degrade the hashing so that chains are much longer than typical, using the new `-degenerate_hash_bits` option to cache_bench. Third, we re-create the structure from scratch frequently in order to exercise the Grow logic repeatedly and to get the benefit of the consistency checks in the structure's destructor in debug builds. For cache_bench this also means disabling the single-threaded "populate cache" step (normally used for steady state performance testing). And of course use many more threads than cores to have many preemptions. An effective test for working out bugs was this (using debug build of course): ``` while ./cache_bench -cache_type=auto_hyper_clock_cache -histograms=0 -cache_size=8000000 -threads=100 -populate_cache=0 -ops_per_thread=10000 -degenerate_hash_bits=6 -num_shard_bits=0; do :; done ``` Or even smaller cases. This setup has around 27 utilized chains, with around 35 entries each, and yield-waits more than 1 million times per second (very high contention; see next section). I have let this run for hours searching for any lingering issues. I've also run cache_bench under ASAN, UBSAN, and TSAN. ## Essentially wait free There is a counter for number of yield() calls when one thread is waiting on another. When we pre-populate the structure in a single thread, ``` ./cache_bench -cache_type=auto_hyper_clock_cache -histograms=0 -populate_cache=1 -ops_per_thread=200000 2>&1 | grep Yield ``` We see something on the order of 1 yield call per second across 16 threads, even when we load the system other other jobs (parallel compilation). With -populate_cache=0, there are more yield opportunities with parallel table growth. On an otherwise unloaded system, we still see very small (single digit) yield counts, with a chance of getting into the thousands, and getting into 10s of thousands per second during table growth phase if the system is loaded with other jobs. However, I am not worried about this if performance is still good (see next section). ## Overall performance Although cache_bench initially suggested performance very close to FixedHCC, there was a very noticeable performance hit under a db_bench setup like used in validating https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/10626. Much of the difference has been reduced by optimizing Lookup with a "naive" pass that will almost always find entries quickly, and only falling back to the careful Lookup algorithm when not found in the first pass. Setups (chosen to be sensitive to block cache performance), and compiled with USE_CLANG=1 JEMALLOC=1 PORTABLE=0 DEBUG_LEVEL=0: ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm base/db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` ### No regression on FixedHCC Running before & after builds at the same time on a 48 core machine. ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm /usr/bin/time ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom[-X10],block_cache_entry_stats,cache_report_problems -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=610000000 -duration 20 -threads=24 -cache_type=fixed_hyper_clock_cache -seed=1234 ``` Before: readrandom [AVG 10 runs] : 847234 (± 8150) ops/sec; 59.2 (± 0.6) MB/sec 703MB max RSS After: readrandom [AVG 10 runs] : 851021 (± 7929) ops/sec; 59.5 (± 0.6) MB/sec 706MB max RSS Probably no material difference. ### Single-threaded performance Using `[-X2]` and `-threads=1` and `-duration=30`, running all three at the same time: lru_cache: 55100 ops/sec, then 55862 ops/sec (627MB max RSS) fixed_hyper_clock_cache: 60496 ops/sec, then 61231 ops/sec (626MB max RSS) auto_hyper_clock_cache: 47560 ops/sec, then 56081 ops/sec (626MB max RSS) So AutoHCC has more ramp-up cost in the first pass as the cache grows to the appropriate size. (In single-threaded operation, the parallelizability and per-op low latency of table growth is overall slower.) However, once up to size, its performance is comparable to LRUCache. FixedHCC's lean operations still win overall when a good estimate is available. If we look at HCC table stats, we can see that this configuration is not favorable to AutoHCC (and I have verified that other memory sizes do not yield substantially different results, until shards are under-sized for the full filters): FixedHCC: Slot occupancy stats: Overall 47% (124991/262144), Min/Max/Window = 28%/64%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 17/22 AutoHCC: Slot occupancy stats: Overall 59% (125781/209682), Min/Max/Window = 43%/82%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 76/16 Head occupancy stats: Overall 43% (92259/209682), Min/Max/Window = 24%/74%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 19/26 Entries at home count: 53350 FixedHCC configuration is relatively good for speed, and not ideal for space utilization. As is typical, AutoHCC has tighter control on metadata usage (209682 x 64 bytes rather than 262144 x 64 bytes), and the higher load factor is slightly worse for speed. LRUCache also has more metadata usage, at 199680 x 96 bytes of tracked metadata (plus roughly another 10% of that untracked in the head pointers), and that metadata is subject to fragmentation. ### Parallel performance, high hit rate Now using `[-X10]` and `-threads=10`, all three at the same time lru_cache: [AVG 10 runs] : 263629 (± 1425) ops/sec; 18.4 (± 0.1) MB/sec 655MB max RSS, 97.1% cache hit rate fixed_hyper_clock_cache: [AVG 10 runs] : 479590 (± 8114) ops/sec; 33.5 (± 0.6) MB/sec 651MB max RSS, 97.1% cache hit rate auto_hyper_clock_cache: [AVG 10 runs] : 418687 (± 5915) ops/sec; 29.3 (± 0.4) MB/sec 657MB max RSS, 97.1% cache hit rate Even with just 10-way parallelism for each cache (though 30+/48 cores busy overall), LRUCache is already showing performance degradation, while AutoHCC is in the neighborhood of FixedHCC. And that brings us to the question of how AutoHCC holds up under extreme parallelism, so now independent runs with `-threads=100` (overloading 48 cores). lru_cache: 438613 ops/sec, 827MB max RSS fixed_hyper_clock_cache: 1651310 ops/sec, 812MB max RSS auto_hyper_clock_cache: 1505875 ops/sec, 821MB max RSS (Yield count: 1089 over 30s) Clearly, AutoHCC holds up extremely well under extreme parallelism, even closing some of the modest performance gap with FixedHCC. ### Parallel performance, low hit rate To get down to roughly 50% cache hit rate, we use `-cache_index_and_filter_blocks=0 -cache_size=1650000000` with `-threads=10`. Here the extra cost of running counting clock eviction, especially on the chains of AutoHCC, are evident, especially with the lower contention of cache_index_and_filter_blocks=0: lru_cache: 725231 ops/sec, 1770MB max RSS, 51.3% hit rate fixed_hyper_clock_cache: 638620 ops/sec, 1765MB max RSS, 50.2% hit rate auto_hyper_clock_cache: 541018 ops/sec, 1777MB max RSS, 50.8% hit rate Reviewed By: jowlyzhang Differential Revision: D48784755 Pulled By: pdillinger fbshipit-source-id: e79813dc087474ac427637dd282a14fa3011a6e4

Cap eviction effort (CPU under stress) in HyperClockCache (#12141) Summary: HyperClockCache is intended to mitigate performance problems under stress conditions (as well as optimizing average-case parallel performance). In LRUCache, the biggest such problem is lock contention when one or a small number of cache entries becomes particularly hot. Regardless of cache sharding, accesses to any particular cache entry are linearized against a single mutex, which is held while each access updates the LRU list. All HCC variants are fully lock/wait-free for accessing blocks already in the cache, which fully mitigates this contention problem. However, HCC (and CLOCK in general) can exhibit extremely degraded performance under a different stress condition: when no (or almost no) entries in a cache shard are evictable (they are pinned). Unlike LRU which can find any evictable entries immediately (at the cost of more coordination / synchronization on each access), CLOCK has to search for evictable entries. Under the right conditions (almost exclusively MB-scale caches not GB-scale), the CPU cost of each cache miss could fall off a cliff and bog down the whole system. To effectively mitigate this problem (IMHO), I'm introducing a new default behavior and tuning parameter for HCC, `eviction_effort_cap`. See the comments on the new config parameter in the public API. Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/12141 Test Plan: unit test included ## Performance test We can use cache_bench to validate no regression (CPU and memory) in normal operation, and to measure change in behavior when cache is almost entirely pinned. (TODO: I'm not sure why I had to get the pinned ratio parameter well over 1.0 to see truly bad performance, but the behavior is there.) Build with `make DEBUG_LEVEL=0 USE_CLANG=1 PORTABLE=0 cache_bench`. We also set MALLOC_CONF="narenas:1" for all these runs to essentially remove jemalloc variances from the results, so that the max RSS given by /usr/bin/time is essentially ideal (assuming the allocator minimizes fragmentation and other memory overheads well). Base command reproducing bad behavior: ``` ./cache_bench -cache_type=auto_hyper_clock_cache -threads=12 -histograms=0 -pinned_ratio=1.7 ``` ``` Before, LRU (alternate baseline not exhibiting bad behavior): Rough parallel ops/sec = 2290997 1088060 maxresident Before, AutoHCC (bad behavior): Rough parallel ops/sec = 141011 <- Yes, more than 10x slower 1083932 maxresident ``` Now let us sample a range of values in the solution space: ``` After, AutoHCC, eviction_effort_cap = 1: Rough parallel ops/sec = 3212586 2402216 maxresident After, AutoHCC, eviction_effort_cap = 10: Rough parallel ops/sec = 2371639 1248884 maxresident After, AutoHCC, eviction_effort_cap = 30: Rough parallel ops/sec = 1981092 1131596 maxresident After, AutoHCC, eviction_effort_cap = 100: Rough parallel ops/sec = 1446188 1090976 maxresident After, AutoHCC, eviction_effort_cap = 1000: Rough parallel ops/sec = 549568 1084064 maxresident ``` I looks like `cap=30` is a sweet spot balancing acceptable CPU and memory overheads, so is chosen as the default. ``` Change to -pinned_ratio=0.85 Before, LRU: Rough parallel ops/sec = 2108373 1078232 maxresident Before, AutoHCC, averaged over ~20 runs: Rough parallel ops/sec = 2164910 1077312 maxresident After, AutoHCC, eviction_effort_cap = 30, averaged over ~20 runs: Rough parallel ops/sec = 2145542 1077216 maxresident ``` The slight CPU improvement above is consistent with the cap, with no measurable memory overhead under moderate stress. ``` Change to -pinned_ratio=0.25 (low stress) Before, AutoHCC, averaged over ~20 runs: Rough parallel ops/sec = 2221149 1076540 maxresident After, AutoHCC, eviction_effort_cap = 30, averaged over ~20 runs: Rough parallel ops/sec = 2224521 1076664 maxresident ``` No measurable difference under normal circumstances.

Automatic table sizing for HyperClockCache (AutoHCC) (#11738) Summary: This change add an experimental next-generation HyperClockCache (HCC) with automatic sizing of the underlying hash table. Both the existing version (stable) and the new version (experimental for now) of HCC are available depending on whether an estimated average entry charge is provided in HyperClockCacheOptions. Internally, we call the two implementations AutoHyperClockCache (new) and FixedHyperClockCache (existing). The performance characteristics and much of the underlying logic are similar enough that AutoHCC is likely to make FixedHCC obsolete, and so it's best considered an evolution of the same technology or solution rather than an alternative. More specifically, both implementations share essentially the same logic for managing the state of individual entries in the cache, including metadata for reference counting and counting clocks for eviction. This metadata, which I like to call the "low-level HCC protocol," includes a read-write lock on entries, but relaxed consistency requirements on the cache (e.g. allowing rare duplication) means high-level cache operations never wait for these low-level per-entry locks. FixedHCC is fully wait-free. AutoHCC is different in how entries are indexed into an efficient hash table. AutoHCC is "essentially wait-free" as there is no pattern of typical high-level operations on a large cache that can lead to one thread waiting on another to complete some work, though it can happen in some unusual/unlucky cases, or atypical uses such as erasing specific cache keys.

Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/12141 Test Plan: unit test included ## Performance test We can use cache_bench to validate no regression (CPU and memory) in normal operation, and to measure change in behavior when cache is almost entirely pinned. (TODO: I'm not sure why I had to get the pinned ratio parameter well over 1.0 to see truly bad performance, but the behavior is there.) Build with `make DEBUG_LEVEL=0 USE_CLANG=1 PORTABLE=0 cache_bench`. We also set MALLOC_CONF="narenas:1" for all these runs to essentially remove jemalloc variances from the results, so that the max RSS given by /usr/bin/time is essentially ideal (assuming the allocator minimizes fragmentation and other memory overheads well). Base command reproducing bad behavior: ``` ./cache_bench -cache_type=auto_hyper_clock_cache -threads=12 -histograms=0 -pinned_ratio=1.7 ``` ``` Before, LRU (alternate baseline not exhibiting bad behavior): Rough parallel ops/sec = 2290997 1088060 maxresident Before, AutoHCC (bad behavior): Rough parallel ops/sec = 141011 <- Yes, more than 10x slower 1083932 maxresident ``` Now let us sample a range of values in the solution space: ``` After, AutoHCC, eviction_effort_cap = 1: Rough parallel ops/sec = 3212586 2402216 maxresident After, AutoHCC, eviction_effort_cap = 10: Rough parallel ops/sec = 2371639 1248884 maxresident After, AutoHCC, eviction_effort_cap = 30: Rough parallel ops/sec = 1981092 1131596 maxresident After, AutoHCC, eviction_effort_cap = 100: Rough parallel ops/sec = 1446188 1090976 maxresident After, AutoHCC, eviction_effort_cap = 1000: Rough parallel ops/sec = 549568 1084064 maxresident ``` I looks like `cap=30` is a sweet spot balancing acceptable CPU and memory overheads, so is chosen as the default. ``` Change to -pinned_ratio=0.85 Before, LRU: Rough parallel ops/sec = 2108373 1078232 maxresident Before, AutoHCC, averaged over ~20 runs: Rough parallel ops/sec = 2164910 1077312 maxresident After, AutoHCC, eviction_effort_cap = 30, averaged over ~20 runs: Rough parallel ops/sec = 2145542 1077216 maxresident ``` The slight CPU improvement above is consistent with the cap, with no measurable memory overhead under moderate stress. ``` Change to -pinned_ratio=0.25 (low stress) Before, AutoHCC, averaged over ~20 runs: Rough parallel ops/sec = 2221149 1076540 maxresident After, AutoHCC, eviction_effort_cap = 30, averaged over ~20 runs: Rough parallel ops/sec = 2224521 1076664 maxresident ``` No measurable difference under normal circumstances.

Automatic table sizing for HyperClockCache (AutoHCC) (#11738) Summary: This change add an experimental next-generation HyperClockCache (HCC) with automatic sizing of the underlying hash table. Both the existing version (stable) and the new version (experimental for now) of HCC are available depending on whether an estimated average entry charge is provided in HyperClockCacheOptions. Internally, we call the two implementations AutoHyperClockCache (new) and FixedHyperClockCache (existing). The performance characteristics and much of the underlying logic are similar enough that AutoHCC is likely to make FixedHCC obsolete, and so it's best considered an evolution of the same technology or solution rather than an alternative. More specifically, both implementations share essentially the same logic for managing the state of individual entries in the cache, including metadata for reference counting and counting clocks for eviction. This metadata, which I like to call the "low-level HCC protocol," includes a read-write lock on entries, but relaxed consistency requirements on the cache (e.g. allowing rare duplication) means high-level cache operations never wait for these low-level per-entry locks. FixedHCC is fully wait-free. AutoHCC is different in how entries are indexed into an efficient hash table. AutoHCC is "essentially wait-free" as there is no pattern of typical high-level operations on a large cache that can lead to one thread waiting on another to complete some work, though it can happen in some unusual/unlucky cases, or atypical uses such as erasing specific cache keys. Table growth and entry reclamation is more complex in AutoHCC compared to FixedHCC, so uses some localized locking to manage that. AutoHCC uses linear hashing to grow the table as needed, with low latency and to a precise size. AutoHCC depends on anonymous mmap support from the OS (currently verified working on Linux, MacOS, and Windows) to allow the array underlying a hash table to grow in place without wasting resident memory on space reserved but unused. AutoHCC uses a form of chaining while FixedHCC uses open addressing and double hashing. More specifics: * In developing this PR, a rare availability bug (minor) was noticed in the existing HCC implementation of Release()+erase_if_last_ref, which is now inherited into AutoHCC. Fixing this without a performance regression will not be simple, so is left for follow-up work. * Some existing unit tests required adjustment of operational parameters or conditions to work with the new behaviors of AutoHCC. A number of bugs were found and fixed in the validation process, including getting unit tests in good working order. * Added an option to cache_bench, `-degenerate_hash_bits` for correctness stress testing described below. For this, the tool uses the reverse-engineered hash function for HCC to generate keys in which the specified number of hash bits, in critical positions, have a fixed value. Essentially each degenerate hash bit will half the number of chain heads utilized and double the average chain length. Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/11738 Test Plan: unit tests updated, and already added to db crash test. Also ## Correctness The code includes generous assertions to check for unexpected states, especially at destruction time, so should be able to detect critical concurrency bugs. Less serious "availability bugs" in which cache data is hidden or cleanly lost are more difficult to detect, but also less scary for data correctness (as long as performance is good and the design is sound). In average operation, the structure is extremely low stress and low contention (see next section) so stressing the corner case logic requires artificially stressing the operating conditions. First, we keep the structure small to increase the number of threads hitting the same chain or entry, and just one cache shard. Second, we artificially degrade the hashing so that chains are much longer than typical, using the new `-degenerate_hash_bits` option to cache_bench. Third, we re-create the structure from scratch frequently in order to exercise the Grow logic repeatedly and to get the benefit of the consistency checks in the structure's destructor in debug builds. For cache_bench this also means disabling the single-threaded "populate cache" step (normally used for steady state performance testing). And of course use many more threads than cores to have many preemptions. An effective test for working out bugs was this (using debug build of course): ``` while ./cache_bench -cache_type=auto_hyper_clock_cache -histograms=0 -cache_size=8000000 -threads=100 -populate_cache=0 -ops_per_thread=10000 -degenerate_hash_bits=6 -num_shard_bits=0; do :; done ``` Or even smaller cases. This setup has around 27 utilized chains, with around 35 entries each, and yield-waits more than 1 million times per second (very high contention; see next section). I have let this run for hours searching for any lingering issues. I've also run cache_bench under ASAN, UBSAN, and TSAN. ## Essentially wait free There is a counter for number of yield() calls when one thread is waiting on another. When we pre-populate the structure in a single thread, ``` ./cache_bench -cache_type=auto_hyper_clock_cache -histograms=0 -populate_cache=1 -ops_per_thread=200000 2>&1 | grep Yield ``` We see something on the order of 1 yield call per second across 16 threads, even when we load the system other other jobs (parallel compilation). With -populate_cache=0, there are more yield opportunities with parallel table growth. On an otherwise unloaded system, we still see very small (single digit) yield counts, with a chance of getting into the thousands, and getting into 10s of thousands per second during table growth phase if the system is loaded with other jobs. However, I am not worried about this if performance is still good (see next section). ## Overall performance Although cache_bench initially suggested performance very close to FixedHCC, there was a very noticeable performance hit under a db_bench setup like used in validating https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/10626. Much of the difference has been reduced by optimizing Lookup with a "naive" pass that will almost always find entries quickly, and only falling back to the careful Lookup algorithm when not found in the first pass. Setups (chosen to be sensitive to block cache performance), and compiled with USE_CLANG=1 JEMALLOC=1 PORTABLE=0 DEBUG_LEVEL=0: ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm base/db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` ### No regression on FixedHCC Running before & after builds at the same time on a 48 core machine. ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm /usr/bin/time ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom[-X10],block_cache_entry_stats,cache_report_problems -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=610000000 -duration 20 -threads=24 -cache_type=fixed_hyper_clock_cache -seed=1234 ``` Before: readrandom [AVG 10 runs] : 847234 (± 8150) ops/sec; 59.2 (± 0.6) MB/sec 703MB max RSS After: readrandom [AVG 10 runs] : 851021 (± 7929) ops/sec; 59.5 (± 0.6) MB/sec 706MB max RSS Probably no material difference. ### Single-threaded performance Using `[-X2]` and `-threads=1` and `-duration=30`, running all three at the same time: lru_cache: 55100 ops/sec, then 55862 ops/sec (627MB max RSS) fixed_hyper_clock_cache: 60496 ops/sec, then 61231 ops/sec (626MB max RSS) auto_hyper_clock_cache: 47560 ops/sec, then 56081 ops/sec (626MB max RSS) So AutoHCC has more ramp-up cost in the first pass as the cache grows to the appropriate size. (In single-threaded operation, the parallelizability and per-op low latency of table growth is overall slower.) However, once up to size, its performance is comparable to LRUCache. FixedHCC's lean operations still win overall when a good estimate is available. If we look at HCC table stats, we can see that this configuration is not favorable to AutoHCC (and I have verified that other memory sizes do not yield substantially different results, until shards are under-sized for the full filters): FixedHCC: Slot occupancy stats: Overall 47% (124991/262144), Min/Max/Window = 28%/64%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 17/22 AutoHCC: Slot occupancy stats: Overall 59% (125781/209682), Min/Max/Window = 43%/82%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 76/16 Head occupancy stats: Overall 43% (92259/209682), Min/Max/Window = 24%/74%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 19/26 Entries at home count: 53350 FixedHCC configuration is relatively good for speed, and not ideal for space utilization. As is typical, AutoHCC has tighter control on metadata usage (209682 x 64 bytes rather than 262144 x 64 bytes), and the higher load factor is slightly worse for speed. LRUCache also has more metadata usage, at 199680 x 96 bytes of tracked metadata (plus roughly another 10% of that untracked in the head pointers), and that metadata is subject to fragmentation. ### Parallel performance, high hit rate Now using `[-X10]` and `-threads=10`, all three at the same time lru_cache: [AVG 10 runs] : 263629 (± 1425) ops/sec; 18.4 (± 0.1) MB/sec 655MB max RSS, 97.1% cache hit rate fixed_hyper_clock_cache: [AVG 10 runs] : 479590 (± 8114) ops/sec; 33.5 (± 0.6) MB/sec 651MB max RSS, 97.1% cache hit rate auto_hyper_clock_cache: [AVG 10 runs] : 418687 (± 5915) ops/sec; 29.3 (± 0.4) MB/sec 657MB max RSS, 97.1% cache hit rate Even with just 10-way parallelism for each cache (though 30+/48 cores busy overall), LRUCache is already showing performance degradation, while AutoHCC is in the neighborhood of FixedHCC. And that brings us to the question of how AutoHCC holds up under extreme parallelism, so now independent runs with `-threads=100` (overloading 48 cores). lru_cache: 438613 ops/sec, 827MB max RSS fixed_hyper_clock_cache: 1651310 ops/sec, 812MB max RSS auto_hyper_clock_cache: 1505875 ops/sec, 821MB max RSS (Yield count: 1089 over 30s) Clearly, AutoHCC holds up extremely well under extreme parallelism, even closing some of the modest performance gap with FixedHCC. ### Parallel performance, low hit rate To get down to roughly 50% cache hit rate, we use `-cache_index_and_filter_blocks=0 -cache_size=1650000000` with `-threads=10`. Here the extra cost of running counting clock eviction, especially on the chains of AutoHCC, are evident, especially with the lower contention of cache_index_and_filter_blocks=0: lru_cache: 725231 ops/sec, 1770MB max RSS, 51.3% hit rate fixed_hyper_clock_cache: 638620 ops/sec, 1765MB max RSS, 50.2% hit rate auto_hyper_clock_cache: 541018 ops/sec, 1777MB max RSS, 50.8% hit rate Reviewed By: jowlyzhang Differential Revision: D48784755 Pulled By: pdillinger fbshipit-source-id: e79813dc087474ac427637dd282a14fa3011a6e4

AutoHCC: Improve/fix allocation/detection of grow homes (#12047) Summary: This change simplifies some code and logic by introducing a new atomic field that tracks the next slot to grow into. It should offer slightly better performance during the growth phase (not measurable; see Test Plan below) and fix a suspected (but unconfirmed) bug like this: * Thread 1 is in non-trivial SplitForGrow() with grow_home=n. * Thread 2 reaches Grow() with grow_home=2n, and waits at the start of SplitForGrow() for the rewrite lock on n. By this point, the head at 2n is marked with the new shift amount but no chain is locked. * Thread 3 reaches Grow() with grow_home=4n, and waits before SplitForGrow() for the rewrite lock on n. By this point, the head at 4n is marked with the new shift amount but no chain is locked. * Thread 4 reaches Grow() with grow_home=8n and meets no resistance to proceeding through a SplitForGrow() on an empty chain, permanently missing out on any entries from chain n that should have ended up here. This is fixed by not updating the shift amount at the grow_home head until we have checked the preconditions that Grow()s feeding into this one have completed.

The performance characteristics and much of the underlying logic are similar enough that AutoHCC is likely to make FixedHCC obsolete, and so it's best considered an evolution of the same technology or solution rather than an alternative. More specifically, both implementations share essentially the same logic for managing the state of individual entries in the cache, including metadata for reference counting and counting clocks for eviction. This metadata, which I like to call the "low-level HCC protocol," includes a read-write lock on entries, but relaxed consistency requirements on the cache (e.g. allowing rare duplication) means high-level cache operations never wait for these low-level per-entry locks. FixedHCC is fully wait-free. AutoHCC is different in how entries are indexed into an efficient hash table. AutoHCC is "essentially wait-free" as there is no pattern of typical high-level operations on a large cache that can lead to one thread waiting on another to complete some work, though it can happen in some unusual/unlucky cases, or atypical uses such as erasing specific cache keys. Table growth and entry reclamation is more complex in AutoHCC compared to FixedHCC, so uses some localized locking to manage that. AutoHCC uses linear hashing to grow the table as needed, with low latency and to a precise size. AutoHCC depends on anonymous mmap support from the OS (currently verified working on Linux, MacOS, and Windows) to allow the array underlying a hash table to grow in place without wasting resident memory on space reserved but unused. AutoHCC uses a form of chaining while FixedHCC uses open addressing and double hashing. More specifics: * In developing this PR, a rare availability bug (minor) was noticed in the existing HCC implementation of Release()+erase_if_last_ref, which is now inherited into AutoHCC. Fixing this without a performance regression will not be simple, so is left for follow-up work. * Some existing unit tests required adjustment of operational parameters or conditions to work with the new behaviors of AutoHCC. A number of bugs were found and fixed in the validation process, including getting unit tests in good working order. * Added an option to cache_bench, `-degenerate_hash_bits` for correctness stress testing described below. For this, the tool uses the reverse-engineered hash function for HCC to generate keys in which the specified number of hash bits, in critical positions, have a fixed value. Essentially each degenerate hash bit will half the number of chain heads utilized and double the average chain length. Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/11738 Test Plan: unit tests updated, and already added to db crash test. Also ## Correctness The code includes generous assertions to check for unexpected states, especially at destruction time, so should be able to detect critical concurrency bugs. Less serious "availability bugs" in which cache data is hidden or cleanly lost are more difficult to detect, but also less scary for data correctness (as long as performance is good and the design is sound). In average operation, the structure is extremely low stress and low contention (see next section) so stressing the corner case logic requires artificially stressing the operating conditions. First, we keep the structure small to increase the number of threads hitting the same chain or entry, and just one cache shard. Second, we artificially degrade the hashing so that chains are much longer than typical, using the new `-degenerate_hash_bits` option to cache_bench. Third, we re-create the structure from scratch frequently in order to exercise the Grow logic repeatedly and to get the benefit of the consistency checks in the structure's destructor in debug builds. For cache_bench this also means disabling the single-threaded "populate cache" step (normally used for steady state performance testing). And of course use many more threads than cores to have many preemptions. An effective test for working out bugs was this (using debug build of course): ``` while ./cache_bench -cache_type=auto_hyper_clock_cache -histograms=0 -cache_size=8000000 -threads=100 -populate_cache=0 -ops_per_thread=10000 -degenerate_hash_bits=6 -num_shard_bits=0; do :; done ``` Or even smaller cases. This setup has around 27 utilized chains, with around 35 entries each, and yield-waits more than 1 million times per second (very high contention; see next section). I have let this run for hours searching for any lingering issues. I've also run cache_bench under ASAN, UBSAN, and TSAN. ## Essentially wait free There is a counter for number of yield() calls when one thread is waiting on another. When we pre-populate the structure in a single thread, ``` ./cache_bench -cache_type=auto_hyper_clock_cache -histograms=0 -populate_cache=1 -ops_per_thread=200000 2>&1 | grep Yield ``` We see something on the order of 1 yield call per second across 16 threads, even when we load the system other other jobs (parallel compilation). With -populate_cache=0, there are more yield opportunities with parallel table growth. On an otherwise unloaded system, we still see very small (single digit) yield counts, with a chance of getting into the thousands, and getting into 10s of thousands per second during table growth phase if the system is loaded with other jobs. However, I am not worried about this if performance is still good (see next section). ## Overall performance Although cache_bench initially suggested performance very close to FixedHCC, there was a very noticeable performance hit under a db_bench setup like used in validating https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/10626. Much of the difference has been reduced by optimizing Lookup with a "naive" pass that will almost always find entries quickly, and only falling back to the careful Lookup algorithm when not found in the first pass. Setups (chosen to be sensitive to block cache performance), and compiled with USE_CLANG=1 JEMALLOC=1 PORTABLE=0 DEBUG_LEVEL=0: ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm base/db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` ### No regression on FixedHCC Running before & after builds at the same time on a 48 core machine. ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm /usr/bin/time ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom[-X10],block_cache_entry_stats,cache_report_problems -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=610000000 -duration 20 -threads=24 -cache_type=fixed_hyper_clock_cache -seed=1234 ``` Before: readrandom [AVG 10 runs] : 847234 (± 8150) ops/sec; 59.2 (± 0.6) MB/sec 703MB max RSS After: readrandom [AVG 10 runs] : 851021 (± 7929) ops/sec; 59.5 (± 0.6) MB/sec 706MB max RSS Probably no material difference. ### Single-threaded performance Using `[-X2]` and `-threads=1` and `-duration=30`, running all three at the same time: lru_cache: 55100 ops/sec, then 55862 ops/sec (627MB max RSS) fixed_hyper_clock_cache: 60496 ops/sec, then 61231 ops/sec (626MB max RSS) auto_hyper_clock_cache: 47560 ops/sec, then 56081 ops/sec (626MB max RSS) So AutoHCC has more ramp-up cost in the first pass as the cache grows to the appropriate size. (In single-threaded operation, the parallelizability and per-op low latency of table growth is overall slower.) However, once up to size, its performance is comparable to LRUCache. FixedHCC's lean operations still win overall when a good estimate is available. If we look at HCC table stats, we can see that this configuration is not favorable to AutoHCC (and I have verified that other memory sizes do not yield substantially different results, until shards are under-sized for the full filters): FixedHCC: Slot occupancy stats: Overall 47% (124991/262144), Min/Max/Window = 28%/64%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 17/22 AutoHCC: Slot occupancy stats: Overall 59% (125781/209682), Min/Max/Window = 43%/82%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 76/16 Head occupancy stats: Overall 43% (92259/209682), Min/Max/Window = 24%/74%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 19/26 Entries at home count: 53350 FixedHCC configuration is relatively good for speed, and not ideal for space utilization. As is typical, AutoHCC has tighter control on metadata usage (209682 x 64 bytes rather than 262144 x 64 bytes), and the higher load factor is slightly worse for speed. LRUCache also has more metadata usage, at 199680 x 96 bytes of tracked metadata (plus roughly another 10% of that untracked in the head pointers), and that metadata is subject to fragmentation. ### Parallel performance, high hit rate Now using `[-X10]` and `-threads=10`, all three at the same time lru_cache: [AVG 10 runs] : 263629 (± 1425) ops/sec; 18.4 (± 0.1) MB/sec 655MB max RSS, 97.1% cache hit rate fixed_hyper_clock_cache: [AVG 10 runs] : 479590 (± 8114) ops/sec; 33.5 (± 0.6) MB/sec 651MB max RSS, 97.1% cache hit rate auto_hyper_clock_cache: [AVG 10 runs] : 418687 (± 5915) ops/sec; 29.3 (± 0.4) MB/sec 657MB max RSS, 97.1% cache hit rate Even with just 10-way parallelism for each cache (though 30+/48 cores busy overall), LRUCache is already showing performance degradation, while AutoHCC is in the neighborhood of FixedHCC. And that brings us to the question of how AutoHCC holds up under extreme parallelism, so now independent runs with `-threads=100` (overloading 48 cores). lru_cache: 438613 ops/sec, 827MB max RSS fixed_hyper_clock_cache: 1651310 ops/sec, 812MB max RSS auto_hyper_clock_cache: 1505875 ops/sec, 821MB max RSS (Yield count: 1089 over 30s) Clearly, AutoHCC holds up extremely well under extreme parallelism, even closing some of the modest performance gap with FixedHCC. ### Parallel performance, low hit rate To get down to roughly 50% cache hit rate, we use `-cache_index_and_filter_blocks=0 -cache_size=1650000000` with `-threads=10`. Here the extra cost of running counting clock eviction, especially on the chains of AutoHCC, are evident, especially with the lower contention of cache_index_and_filter_blocks=0: lru_cache: 725231 ops/sec, 1770MB max RSS, 51.3% hit rate fixed_hyper_clock_cache: 638620 ops/sec, 1765MB max RSS, 50.2% hit rate auto_hyper_clock_cache: 541018 ops/sec, 1777MB max RSS, 50.8% hit rate Reviewed By: jowlyzhang Differential Revision: D48784755 Pulled By: pdillinger fbshipit-source-id: e79813dc087474ac427637dd282a14fa3011a6e4

AutoHCC: Improve/fix allocation/detection of grow homes (#12047) Summary: This change simplifies some code and logic by introducing a new atomic field that tracks the next slot to grow into. It should offer slightly better performance during the growth phase (not measurable; see Test Plan below) and fix a suspected (but unconfirmed) bug like this: * Thread 1 is in non-trivial SplitForGrow() with grow_home=n. * Thread 2 reaches Grow() with grow_home=2n, and waits at the start of SplitForGrow() for the rewrite lock on n. By this point, the head at 2n is marked with the new shift amount but no chain is locked. * Thread 3 reaches Grow() with grow_home=4n, and waits before SplitForGrow() for the rewrite lock on n. By this point, the head at 4n is marked with the new shift amount but no chain is locked. * Thread 4 reaches Grow() with grow_home=8n and meets no resistance to proceeding through a SplitForGrow() on an empty chain, permanently missing out on any entries from chain n that should have ended up here. This is fixed by not updating the shift amount at the grow_home head until we have checked the preconditions that Grow()s feeding into this one have completed.

Automatic table sizing for HyperClockCache (AutoHCC) (#11738) Summary: This change add an experimental next-generation HyperClockCache (HCC) with automatic sizing of the underlying hash table. Both the existing version (stable) and the new version (experimental for now) of HCC are available depending on whether an estimated average entry charge is provided in HyperClockCacheOptions. Internally, we call the two implementations AutoHyperClockCache (new) and FixedHyperClockCache (existing). The performance characteristics and much of the underlying logic are similar enough that AutoHCC is likely to make FixedHCC obsolete, and so it's best considered an evolution of the same technology or solution rather than an alternative.

Placeholder for AutoHyperClockCache, more (#11692) Summary: * The plan is for AutoHyperClockCache to be selected when HyperClockCacheOptions::estimated_entry_charge == 0, and in that case to use a new configuration option min_avg_entry_charge for determining an extreme case maximum size for the hash table. For the placeholder, a hack is in place in HyperClockCacheOptions::MakeSharedCache() to make the unit tests happy despite the new options not really making sense with the current implementation. * Mostly updating and refactoring tests to test both the current HCC (internal name FixedHyperClockCache) and a placeholder for the new version (internal name AutoHyperClockCache). * Simplify some existing tests not to depend directly on cache type. * Type-parameterize the shard-level unit tests, which unfortunately requires more syntax like `this->` in places for disambiguation. * Added means of choosing auto_hyper_clock_cache to cache_bench, db_bench, and db_stress, including add to crash test. * Add another templated class BaseHyperClockCache to reduce future copy-paste * Added ReportProblems support to cache_bench * Added a DEBUG-level diagnostic to ReportProblems for the variance in load factor throughout the table, which will become more of a concern with linear hashing to be used in the Auto implementation. Example with current Fixed HCC: ``` 2023/08/10-13:41:41.602450 6ac36 [DEBUG] [che/clock_cache.cc:1507] Slot occupancy stats: Overall 49% (129008/262144), Min/Max/Window = 39%/60%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 18/17 ``` In other words, with overall occupancy of 49%, the lowest across any 500 contiguous cells is 39% and highest 60%. Longest run of occupied is 18 and longest run of unoccupied is 17. This seems consistent with random samples from a uniform distribution.

Refactor ShardedCache for more sharing, static polymorphism (#10801) Summary: The motivations for this change include * Free up space in ClockHandle so that we can add data for secondary cache handling while still keeping within single cache line (64 byte) size. * This change frees up space by eliminating the need for the `hash` field by making the fixed-size key itself a hash, using a 128-bit bijective (lossless) hash. * Generally more customizability of ShardedCache (such as hashing) without worrying about virtual call overheads * ShardedCache now uses static polymorphism (template) instead of dynamic polymorphism (virtual overrides) for the CacheShard. No obvious performance benefit is seen from the change (as mostly expected; most calls to virtual functions in CacheShard could already be optimized to static calls), but offers more flexibility without incurring the runtime cost of adhering to a common interface (without type parameters or static callbacks). * You'll also notice less `reinterpret_cast`ing and other boilerplate in the Cache implementations, as this can go in ShardedCache. More detail: * Don't have LRUCacheShard maintain `std::shared_ptr<SecondaryCache>` copies (extra refcount) when LRUCache can be in charge of keeping a `shared_ptr`. * Renamed `capacity_mutex_` to `config_mutex_` to better represent the scope of what it guards. * Some preparation for 64-bit hash and indexing in LRUCache, but didn't include the full change because of slight performance regression.

HyperClockCache support for SecondaryCache, with refactoring (#11301) Summary: Internally refactors SecondaryCache integration out of LRUCache specifically and into a wrapper/adapter class that works with various Cache implementations. Notably, this relies on separating the notion of async lookup handles from other cache handles, so that HyperClockCache doesn't have to deal with the problem of allocating handles from the hash table for lookups that might fail anyway, and might be on the same key without support for coalescing. (LRUCache's hash table can incorporate previously allocated handles thanks to its pointer indirection.) Specifically, I'm worried about the case in which hundreds of threads try to access the same block and probing in the hash table degrades to linear search on the pile of entries with the same key. This change is a big step in the direction of supporting stacked SecondaryCaches, but there are obstacles to completing that. Especially, there is no SecondaryCache hook for evictions to pass from one to the next. It has been proposed that evictions be transmitted simply as the persisted data (as in SaveToCallback), but given the current structure provided by the CacheItemHelpers, that would require an extra copy of the block data, because there's intentionally no way to ask for a contiguous Slice of the data (to allow for flexibility in storage). `AsyncLookupHandle` and the re-worked `WaitAll()` should be essentially prepared for stacked SecondaryCaches, but several "TODO with stacked secondaries" issues remain in various places. It could be argued that the stacking instead be done as a SecondaryCache adapter that wraps two (or more) SecondaryCaches, but at least with the current API that would require an extra heap allocation on SecondaryCache Lookup for a wrapper SecondaryCacheResultHandle that can transfer a Lookup between secondaries. We could also consider trying to unify the Cache and SecondaryCache APIs, though that might be difficult if `AsyncLookupHandle` is kept a fixed struct. ## cache.h (public API) Moves `secondary_cache` option from LRUCacheOptions to ShardedCacheOptions so that it is applicable to HyperClockCache. ## advanced_cache.h (advanced public API) * Add `Cache::CreateStandalone()` so that the SecondaryCache support wrapper can use it. * Add `SetEvictionCallback()` / `eviction_callback_` so that the SecondaryCache support wrapper can use it. Only a single callback is supported for efficiency. If there is ever a need for more than one, hopefully that can be handled with a broadcast callback wrapper. These are essentially the two "extra" pieces of `Cache` for pulling out specific SecondaryCache support from the `Cache` implementation. I think it's a good trade-off as these are reasonable, limited, and reusable "cut points" into the `Cache` implementations. * Remove async capability from standard `Lookup()` (getting rid of awkward restrictions on pending Handles) and add `AsyncLookupHandle` and `StartAsyncLookup()`. As noted in the comments, the full struct of `AsyncLookupHandle` is exposed so that it can be stack allocated, for efficiency, though more data is being copied around than before, which could impact performance. (Lookup info -> AsyncLookupHandle -> Handle vs. Lookup info -> Handle) I could foresee a future in which a Cache internally saves a pointer to the AsyncLookupHandle, which means it's dangerous to allow it to be copyable or even movable. It also means it's not compatible with std::vector (which I don't like requiring as an API parameter anyway), so `WaitAll()` expects any contiguous array of AsyncLookupHandles. I believe this is best for common case efficiency, while behaving well in other cases also. For example, `WaitAll()` has no effect on default-constructed AsyncLookupHandles, which look like a completed cache miss. ## cacheable_entry.h A couple of functions are obsolete because Cache::Handle can no longer be pending. ## cache.cc Provides default implementations for new or revamped Cache functions, especially appropriate for non-blocking caches. ## secondary_cache_adapter.{h,cc} The full details of the Cache wrapper adding SecondaryCache support. Essentially replicates the SecondaryCache handling that was in LRUCache, but obviously refactored. There is a bit of logic duplication, where Lookup() is essentially a manually optimized version of StartAsyncLookup() and Wait(), but it's roughly a dozen lines of code. ## sharded_cache.h, typed_cache.h, charged_cache.{h,cc}, sim_cache.cc Simply updated for Cache API changes. ## lru_cache.{h,cc} Carefully remove SecondaryCache logic, implement `CreateStandalone` and eviction handler functionality. ## clock_cache.{h,cc} Expose existing `CreateStandalone` functionality, add eviction handler functionality. Light refactoring. ## block_based_table_reader* Mostly re-worked the only usage of async Lookup, which is in BlockBasedTable::MultiGet. Used arrays in place of autovector in some places for efficiency. Simplified some logic by not trying to process some cache results before they're all ready. Created new function `BlockBasedTable::GetCachePriority()` to reduce some pre-existing code duplication (and avoid making it worse). Fixed at least one small bug from the prior confusing mixture of async and sync Lookups. In MaybeReadBlockAndLoadToCache(), called by RetrieveBlock(), called by MultiGet() with wait=false, is_cache_hit for the block_cache_tracer entry would not be set to true if the handle was pending after Lookup and before Wait. ## Intended follow-up work * Figure out if there are any missing stats or block_cache_tracer work in refactored BlockBasedTable::MultiGet * Stacked secondary caches (see above discussion) * See if we can make up for the small MultiGet performance regression. * Study more performance with SecondaryCache * Items evicted from over-full LRUCache in Release were not being demoted to SecondaryCache, and still aren't to minimize unit test churn. Ideally they would be demoted, but it's an exceptional case so not a big deal. * Use CreateStandalone for cache reservations (save unnecessary hash table operations). Not a big deal, but worthy cleanup. * Somehow I got the contract for SecondaryCache::Insert wrong in #10945. (Doesn't take ownership!) That API comment needs to be fixed, but didn't want to mingle that in here. Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/11301 Test Plan: ## Unit tests Generally updated to include HCC in SecondaryCache tests, though HyperClockCache has some different, less strict behaviors that leads to some tests not really being set up to work with it. Some of the tests remain disabled with it, but I think we have good coverage without them. ## Crash/stress test Updated to use the new combination. ## Performance First, let's check for regression on caches without secondary cache configured. Adding support for the eviction callback is likely to have a tiny effect, but it shouldn't be worrisome. LRUCache could benefit slightly from less logic around SecondaryCache handling. We can test with cache_bench default settings, built with DEBUG_LEVEL=0 and PORTABLE=0. ``` (while :; do base/cache_bench --cache_type=hyper_clock_cache | grep Rough; done) | awk '{ sum += $9; count++; print $0; print "Average: " int(sum / count) }' ``` **Before** this and #11299 (which could also have a small effect), running for about an hour, before & after running concurrently for each cache type: HyperClockCache: 3168662 (average parallel ops/sec) LRUCache: 2940127 **After** this and #11299, running for about an hour: HyperClockCache: 3164862 (average parallel ops/sec) (0.12% slower) LRUCache: 2940928 (0.03% faster) This is an acceptable difference IMHO. Next, let's consider essentially the worst case of new CPU overhead affecting overall performance. MultiGet uses the async lookup interface regardless of whether SecondaryCache or folly are used. We can configure a benchmark where all block cache queries are for data blocks, and all are hits. Create DB and test (before and after tests running simultaneously): ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm base/db_bench -benchmarks=multireadrandom[-X30] -readonly -multiread_batched -batch_size=32 -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_size=6789000000 -duration 20 -threads=16 ``` **Before**: multireadrandom [AVG 30 runs] : 3444202 (± 57049) ops/sec; 240.9 (± 4.0) MB/sec multireadrandom [MEDIAN 30 runs] : 3514443 ops/sec; 245.8 MB/sec **After**: multireadrandom [AVG 30 runs] : 3291022 (± 58851) ops/sec; 230.2 (± 4.1) MB/sec multireadrandom [MEDIAN 30 runs] : 3366179 ops/sec; 235.4 MB/sec So that's roughly a 3% regression, on kind of a *worst case* test of MultiGet CPU. Similar story with HyperClockCache: **Before**: multireadrandom [AVG 30 runs] : 3933777 (± 41840) ops/sec; 275.1 (± 2.9) MB/sec multireadrandom [MEDIAN 30 runs] : 3970667 ops/sec; 277.7 MB/sec **After**: multireadrandom [AVG 30 runs] : 3755338 (± 30391) ops/sec; 262.6 (± 2.1) MB/sec multireadrandom [MEDIAN 30 runs] : 3785696 ops/sec; 264.8 MB/sec Roughly a 4-5% regression. Not ideal, but not the whole story, fortunately. Let's also look at Get() in db_bench: ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom[-X30] -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_size=6789000000 -duration 20 -threads=16 ``` **Before**: readrandom [AVG 30 runs] : 2198685 (± 13412) ops/sec; 153.8 (± 0.9) MB/sec readrandom [MEDIAN 30 runs] : 2209498 ops/sec; 154.5 MB/sec **After**: readrandom [AVG 30 runs] : 2292814 (± 43508) ops/sec; 160.3 (± 3.0) MB/sec readrandom [MEDIAN 30 runs] : 2365181 ops/sec; 165.4 MB/sec That's showing roughly a 4% improvement, perhaps because of the secondary cache code that is no longer part of LRUCache. But weirdly, HyperClockCache is also showing 2-3% improvement: **Before**: readrandom [AVG 30 runs] : 2272333 (± 9992) ops/sec; 158.9 (± 0.7) MB/sec readrandom [MEDIAN 30 runs] : 2273239 ops/sec; 159.0 MB/sec **After**: readrandom [AVG 30 runs] : 2332407 (± 11252) ops/sec; 163.1 (± 0.8) MB/sec readrandom [MEDIAN 30 runs] : 2335329 ops/sec; 163.3 MB/sec Reviewed By: ltamasi Differential Revision: D44177044 Pulled By: pdillinger fbshipit-source-id: e808e48ff3fe2f792a79841ba617be98e48689f5

More detail: * Don't have LRUCacheShard maintain `std::shared_ptr<SecondaryCache>` copies (extra refcount) when LRUCache can be in charge of keeping a `shared_ptr`. * Renamed `capacity_mutex_` to `config_mutex_` to better represent the scope of what it guards. * Some preparation for 64-bit hash and indexing in LRUCache, but didn't include the full change because of slight performance regression.

Major Cache refactoring, CPU efficiency improvement (#10975) Summary: This is several refactorings bundled into one to avoid having to incrementally re-modify uses of Cache several times. Overall, there are breaking changes to Cache class, and it becomes more of low-level interface for implementing caches, especially block cache. New internal APIs make using Cache cleaner than before, and more insulated from block cache evolution. Hopefully, this is the last really big block cache refactoring, because of rather effectively decoupling the implementations from the uses. This change also removes the EXPERIMENTAL designation on the SecondaryCache support in Cache. It seems reasonably mature at this point but still subject to change/evolution (as I warn in the API docs for Cache). The high-level motivation for this refactoring is to minimize code duplication / compounding complexity in adding SecondaryCache support to HyperClockCache (in a later PR). Other benefits listed below. * static_cast lines of code +29 -35 (net removed 6) * reinterpret_cast lines of code +6 -32 (net removed 26) ## cache.h and secondary_cache.h * Always use CacheItemHelper with entries instead of just a Deleter. There are several motivations / justifications: * Simpler for implementations to deal with just one Insert and one Lookup. * Simpler and more efficient implementation because we don't have to track which entries are using helpers and which are using deleters * Gets rid of hack to classify cache entries by their deleter. Instead, the CacheItemHelper includes a CacheEntryRole. This simplifies a lot of code (cache_entry_roles.h almost eliminated). Fixes https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/9428. * Makes it trivial to adjust SecondaryCache behavior based on kind of block (e.g. don't re-compress filter blocks). * It is arguably less convenient for many direct users of Cache, but direct users of Cache are now rare with introduction of typed_cache.h (below). * I considered and rejected an alternative approach in which we reduce customizability by assuming each secondary cache compatible value starts with a Slice referencing the uncompressed block contents (already true or mostly true), but we apparently intend to stack secondary caches. Saving an entry from a compressed secondary to a lower tier requires custom handling offered by SaveToCallback, etc. * Make CreateCallback part of the helper and introduce CreateContext to work with it (alternative to https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/10562). This cleans up the interface while still allowing context to be provided for loading/parsing values into primary cache. This model works for async lookup in BlockBasedTable reader (reader owns a CreateContext) under the assumption that it always waits on secondary cache operations to finish. (Otherwise, the CreateContext could be destroyed while async operation depending on it continues.) This likely contributes most to the observed performance improvement because it saves an std::function backed by a heap allocation. * Use char* for serialized data, e.g. in SaveToCallback, where void* was confusingly used. (We use `char*` for serialized byte data all over RocksDB, with many advantages over `void*`. `memcpy` etc. are legacy APIs that should not be mimicked.) * Add a type alias Cache::ObjectPtr = void*, so that we can better indicate the intent of the void* when it is to be the object associated with a Cache entry. Related: started (but did not complete) a refactoring to move away from "value" of a cache entry toward "object" or "obj". (It is confusing to call Cache a key-value store (like DB) when it is really storing arbitrary in-memory objects, not byte strings.) * Remove unnecessary key param from DeleterFn. This is good for efficiency in HyperClockCache, which does not directly store the cache key in memory. (Alternative to https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/10774) * Add allocator to Cache DeleterFn. This is a kind of future-proofing change in case we get more serious about using the Cache allocator for memory tracked by the Cache. Right now, only the uncompressed block contents are allocated using the allocator, and a pointer to that allocator is saved as part of the cached object so that the deleter can use it. (See CacheAllocationPtr.) If in the future we are able to "flatten out" our Cache objects some more, it would be good not to have to track the allocator as part of each object. * Removes legacy `ApplyToAllCacheEntries` and changes `ApplyToAllEntries` signature for Deleter->CacheItemHelper change. ## typed_cache.h Adds various "typed" interfaces to the Cache as internal APIs, so that most uses of Cache can use simple type safe code without casting and without explicit deleters, etc. Almost all of the non-test, non-glue code uses of Cache have been migrated. (Follow-up work: CompressedSecondaryCache deserves deeper attention to migrate.) This change expands RocksDB's internal usage of metaprogramming and SFINAE (https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/sfinae). The existing usages of Cache are divided up at a high level into these new interfaces. See updated existing uses of Cache for examples of how these are used. * PlaceholderCacheInterface - Used for making cache reservations, with entries that have a charge but no value. * BasicTypedCacheInterface<TValue> - Used for primary cache storage of objects of type TValue, which can be cleaned up with std::default_delete<TValue>. The role is provided by TValue::kCacheEntryRole or given in an optional template parameter. * FullTypedCacheInterface<TValue, TCreateContext> - Used for secondary cache compatible storage of objects of type TValue. In addition to BasicTypedCacheInterface constraints, we require TValue::ContentSlice() to return persistable data. This simplifies usage for the normal case of simple secondary cache compatibility (can give you a Slice to the data already in memory). In addition to TCreateContext performing the role of Cache::CreateContext, it is also expected to provide a factory function for creating TValue. * For each of these, there's a "Shared" version (e.g. FullTypedSharedCacheInterface) that holds a shared_ptr to the Cache, rather than assuming external ownership by holding only a raw `Cache*`. These interfaces introduce specific handle types for each interface instantiation, so that it's easy to see what kind of object is controlled by a handle. (Ultimately, this might not be worth the extra complexity, but it seems OK so far.) Note: I attempted to make the cache 'charge' automatically inferred from the cache object type, such as by expecting an ApproximateMemoryUsage() function, but this is not so clean because there are cases where we need to compute the charge ahead of time and don't want to re-compute it. ## block_cache.h This header is essentially the replacement for the old block_like_traits.h. It includes various things to support block cache access with typed_cache.h for block-based table. ## block_based_table_reader.cc Before this change, accessing the block cache here was an awkward mix of static polymorphism (template TBlocklike) and switch-case on a dynamic BlockType value. This change mostly unifies on static polymorphism, relying on minor hacks in block_cache.h to distinguish variants of Block. We still check BlockType in some places (especially for stats, which could be improved in follow-up work) but at least the BlockType is a static constant from the template parameter. (No more awkward partial redundancy between static and dynamic info.) This likely contributes to the overall performance improvement, but hasn't been tested in isolation. The other key source of simplification here is a more unified system of creating block cache objects: for directly populating from primary cache and for promotion from secondary cache. Both use BlockCreateContext, for context and for factory functions. ## block_based_table_builder.cc, cache_dump_load_impl.cc Before this change, warming caches was super ugly code. Both of these source files had switch statements to basically transition from the dynamic BlockType world to the static TBlocklike world. None of that mess is needed anymore as there's a new, untyped WarmInCache function that handles all the details just as promotion from SecondaryCache would. (Fixes `TODO akanksha: Dedup below code` in block_based_table_builder.cc.) ## Everything else Mostly just updating Cache users to use new typed APIs when reasonably possible, or changed Cache APIs when not.

HyperClockCache support for SecondaryCache, with refactoring (#11301) Summary: Internally refactors SecondaryCache integration out of LRUCache specifically and into a wrapper/adapter class that works with various Cache implementations. Notably, this relies on separating the notion of async lookup handles from other cache handles, so that HyperClockCache doesn't have to deal with the problem of allocating handles from the hash table for lookups that might fail anyway, and might be on the same key without support for coalescing. (LRUCache's hash table can incorporate previously allocated handles thanks to its pointer indirection.) Specifically, I'm worried about the case in which hundreds of threads try to access the same block and probing in the hash table degrades to linear search on the pile of entries with the same key. This change is a big step in the direction of supporting stacked SecondaryCaches, but there are obstacles to completing that. Especially, there is no SecondaryCache hook for evictions to pass from one to the next. It has been proposed that evictions be transmitted simply as the persisted data (as in SaveToCallback), but given the current structure provided by the CacheItemHelpers, that would require an extra copy of the block data, because there's intentionally no way to ask for a contiguous Slice of the data (to allow for flexibility in storage). `AsyncLookupHandle` and the re-worked `WaitAll()` should be essentially prepared for stacked SecondaryCaches, but several "TODO with stacked secondaries" issues remain in various places. It could be argued that the stacking instead be done as a SecondaryCache adapter that wraps two (or more) SecondaryCaches, but at least with the current API that would require an extra heap allocation on SecondaryCache Lookup for a wrapper SecondaryCacheResultHandle that can transfer a Lookup between secondaries. We could also consider trying to unify the Cache and SecondaryCache APIs, though that might be difficult if `AsyncLookupHandle` is kept a fixed struct. ## cache.h (public API) Moves `secondary_cache` option from LRUCacheOptions to ShardedCacheOptions so that it is applicable to HyperClockCache. ## advanced_cache.h (advanced public API) * Add `Cache::CreateStandalone()` so that the SecondaryCache support wrapper can use it. * Add `SetEvictionCallback()` / `eviction_callback_` so that the SecondaryCache support wrapper can use it. Only a single callback is supported for efficiency. If there is ever a need for more than one, hopefully that can be handled with a broadcast callback wrapper. These are essentially the two "extra" pieces of `Cache` for pulling out specific SecondaryCache support from the `Cache` implementation. I think it's a good trade-off as these are reasonable, limited, and reusable "cut points" into the `Cache` implementations. * Remove async capability from standard `Lookup()` (getting rid of awkward restrictions on pending Handles) and add `AsyncLookupHandle` and `StartAsyncLookup()`. As noted in the comments, the full struct of `AsyncLookupHandle` is exposed so that it can be stack allocated, for efficiency, though more data is being copied around than before, which could impact performance. (Lookup info -> AsyncLookupHandle -> Handle vs. Lookup info -> Handle) I could foresee a future in which a Cache internally saves a pointer to the AsyncLookupHandle, which means it's dangerous to allow it to be copyable or even movable. It also means it's not compatible with std::vector (which I don't like requiring as an API parameter anyway), so `WaitAll()` expects any contiguous array of AsyncLookupHandles. I believe this is best for common case efficiency, while behaving well in other cases also. For example, `WaitAll()` has no effect on default-constructed AsyncLookupHandles, which look like a completed cache miss. ## cacheable_entry.h A couple of functions are obsolete because Cache::Handle can no longer be pending. ## cache.cc Provides default implementations for new or revamped Cache functions, especially appropriate for non-blocking caches. ## secondary_cache_adapter.{h,cc} The full details of the Cache wrapper adding SecondaryCache support. Essentially replicates the SecondaryCache handling that was in LRUCache, but obviously refactored. There is a bit of logic duplication, where Lookup() is essentially a manually optimized version of StartAsyncLookup() and Wait(), but it's roughly a dozen lines of code. ## sharded_cache.h, typed_cache.h, charged_cache.{h,cc}, sim_cache.cc Simply updated for Cache API changes. ## lru_cache.{h,cc} Carefully remove SecondaryCache logic, implement `CreateStandalone` and eviction handler functionality. ## clock_cache.{h,cc} Expose existing `CreateStandalone` functionality, add eviction handler functionality. Light refactoring. ## block_based_table_reader* Mostly re-worked the only usage of async Lookup, which is in BlockBasedTable::MultiGet. Used arrays in place of autovector in some places for efficiency. Simplified some logic by not trying to process some cache results before they're all ready. Created new function `BlockBasedTable::GetCachePriority()` to reduce some pre-existing code duplication (and avoid making it worse). Fixed at least one small bug from the prior confusing mixture of async and sync Lookups. In MaybeReadBlockAndLoadToCache(), called by RetrieveBlock(), called by MultiGet() with wait=false, is_cache_hit for the block_cache_tracer entry would not be set to true if the handle was pending after Lookup and before Wait. ## Intended follow-up work * Figure out if there are any missing stats or block_cache_tracer work in refactored BlockBasedTable::MultiGet * Stacked secondary caches (see above discussion) * See if we can make up for the small MultiGet performance regression. * Study more performance with SecondaryCache * Items evicted from over-full LRUCache in Release were not being demoted to SecondaryCache, and still aren't to minimize unit test churn. Ideally they would be demoted, but it's an exceptional case so not a big deal. * Use CreateStandalone for cache reservations (save unnecessary hash table operations). Not a big deal, but worthy cleanup. * Somehow I got the contract for SecondaryCache::Insert wrong in #10945. (Doesn't take ownership!) That API comment needs to be fixed, but didn't want to mingle that in here. Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/11301 Test Plan: ## Unit tests Generally updated to include HCC in SecondaryCache tests, though HyperClockCache has some different, less strict behaviors that leads to some tests not really being set up to work with it. Some of the tests remain disabled with it, but I think we have good coverage without them. ## Crash/stress test Updated to use the new combination. ## Performance First, let's check for regression on caches without secondary cache configured. Adding support for the eviction callback is likely to have a tiny effect, but it shouldn't be worrisome. LRUCache could benefit slightly from less logic around SecondaryCache handling. We can test with cache_bench default settings, built with DEBUG_LEVEL=0 and PORTABLE=0. ``` (while :; do base/cache_bench --cache_type=hyper_clock_cache | grep Rough; done) | awk '{ sum += $9; count++; print $0; print "Average: " int(sum / count) }' ``` **Before** this and #11299 (which could also have a small effect), running for about an hour, before & after running concurrently for each cache type: HyperClockCache: 3168662 (average parallel ops/sec) LRUCache: 2940127 **After** this and #11299, running for about an hour: HyperClockCache: 3164862 (average parallel ops/sec) (0.12% slower) LRUCache: 2940928 (0.03% faster) This is an acceptable difference IMHO. Next, let's consider essentially the worst case of new CPU overhead affecting overall performance. MultiGet uses the async lookup interface regardless of whether SecondaryCache or folly are used. We can configure a benchmark where all block cache queries are for data blocks, and all are hits. Create DB and test (before and after tests running simultaneously): ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm base/db_bench -benchmarks=multireadrandom[-X30] -readonly -multiread_batched -batch_size=32 -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_size=6789000000 -duration 20 -threads=16 ``` **Before**: multireadrandom [AVG 30 runs] : 3444202 (± 57049) ops/sec; 240.9 (± 4.0) MB/sec multireadrandom [MEDIAN 30 runs] : 3514443 ops/sec; 245.8 MB/sec **After**: multireadrandom [AVG 30 runs] : 3291022 (± 58851) ops/sec; 230.2 (± 4.1) MB/sec multireadrandom [MEDIAN 30 runs] : 3366179 ops/sec; 235.4 MB/sec So that's roughly a 3% regression, on kind of a *worst case* test of MultiGet CPU. Similar story with HyperClockCache: **Before**: multireadrandom [AVG 30 runs] : 3933777 (± 41840) ops/sec; 275.1 (± 2.9) MB/sec multireadrandom [MEDIAN 30 runs] : 3970667 ops/sec; 277.7 MB/sec **After**: multireadrandom [AVG 30 runs] : 3755338 (± 30391) ops/sec; 262.6 (± 2.1) MB/sec multireadrandom [MEDIAN 30 runs] : 3785696 ops/sec; 264.8 MB/sec Roughly a 4-5% regression. Not ideal, but not the whole story, fortunately. Let's also look at Get() in db_bench: ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom[-X30] -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_size=6789000000 -duration 20 -threads=16 ``` **Before**: readrandom [AVG 30 runs] : 2198685 (± 13412) ops/sec; 153.8 (± 0.9) MB/sec readrandom [MEDIAN 30 runs] : 2209498 ops/sec; 154.5 MB/sec **After**: readrandom [AVG 30 runs] : 2292814 (± 43508) ops/sec; 160.3 (± 3.0) MB/sec readrandom [MEDIAN 30 runs] : 2365181 ops/sec; 165.4 MB/sec That's showing roughly a 4% improvement, perhaps because of the secondary cache code that is no longer part of LRUCache. But weirdly, HyperClockCache is also showing 2-3% improvement: **Before**: readrandom [AVG 30 runs] : 2272333 (± 9992) ops/sec; 158.9 (± 0.7) MB/sec readrandom [MEDIAN 30 runs] : 2273239 ops/sec; 159.0 MB/sec **After**: readrandom [AVG 30 runs] : 2332407 (± 11252) ops/sec; 163.1 (± 0.8) MB/sec readrandom [MEDIAN 30 runs] : 2335329 ops/sec; 163.3 MB/sec Reviewed By: ltamasi Differential Revision: D44177044 Pulled By: pdillinger fbshipit-source-id: e808e48ff3fe2f792a79841ba617be98e48689f5

No obvious performance benefit is seen from the change (as mostly expected; most calls to virtual functions in CacheShard could already be optimized to static calls), but offers more flexibility without incurring the runtime cost of adhering to a common interface (without type parameters or static callbacks). * You'll also notice less `reinterpret_cast`ing and other boilerplate in the Cache implementations, as this can go in ShardedCache. More detail: * Don't have LRUCacheShard maintain `std::shared_ptr<SecondaryCache>` copies (extra refcount) when LRUCache can be in charge of keeping a `shared_ptr`. * Renamed `capacity_mutex_` to `config_mutex_` to better represent the scope of what it guards. * Some preparation for 64-bit hash and indexing in LRUCache, but didn't include the full change because of slight performance regression.

Observe and warn about misconfigured HyperClockCache (#10965) Summary: Background. One of the core risks of chosing HyperClockCache is ending up with degraded performance if estimated_entry_charge is very significantly wrong. Too low leads to under-utilized hash table, which wastes a bit of (tracked) memory and likely increases access times due to larger working set size (more TLB misses). Too high leads to fully populated hash table (at some limit with reasonable lookup performance) and not being able to cache as many objects as the memory limit would allow. In either case, performance degradation is graceful/continuous but can be quite significant. For example, cutting block size in half without updating estimated_entry_charge could lead to a large portion of configured block cache memory (up to roughly 1/3) going unused. Fix. This change adds a mechanism through which the DB periodically probes the block cache(s) for "problems" to report, and adds diagnostics to the HyperClockCache for bad estimated_entry_charge.

More detail: * Don't have LRUCacheShard maintain `std::shared_ptr<SecondaryCache>` copies (extra refcount) when LRUCache can be in charge of keeping a `shared_ptr`. * Renamed `capacity_mutex_` to `config_mutex_` to better represent the scope of what it guards. * Some preparation for 64-bit hash and indexing in LRUCache, but didn't include the full change because of slight performance regression.

Revamp, optimize new experimental clock cache (#10626) Summary: * Consolidates most metadata into a single word per slot so that more can be accomplished with a single atomic update. In the common case, Lookup was previously about 4 atomic updates, now just 1 atomic update. Common case Release was previously 1 atomic read + 1 atomic update, now just 1 atomic update. * Eliminate spins / waits / yields, which likely threaten some "lock free" benefits. Compare-exchange loops are only used in explicit Erase, and strict_capacity_limit=true Insert. Eviction uses opportunistic compare- exchange. * Relaxes some aggressiveness and guarantees. For example, * Duplicate Inserts will sometimes go undetected and the shadow duplicate will age out with eviction. * In many cases, the older Inserted value for a given cache key will be kept (i.e. Insert does not support overwrite). * Entries explicitly erased (rather than evicted) might not be freed immediately in some rare cases. * With strict_capacity_limit=false, capacity limit is not tracked/enforced as precisely as LRUCache, but is self-correcting and should only deviate by a very small number of extra or fewer entries. * Use smaller "computed default" number of cache shards in many cases, because benefits to larger usage tracking / eviction pools outweigh the small cost of more lock-free atomic contention. The improvement in CPU and I/O is dramatic in some limit-memory cases. * Even without the sharding change, the eviction algorithm is likely more effective than LRU overall because it's more stateful, even though the "hot path" state tracking for it is essentially free with ref counting. It is like a generalized CLOCK with aging (see code comments). I don't have performance numbers showing a specific improvement, but in theory, for a Poisson access pattern to each block, keeping some state allows better estimation of time to next access (Poisson interval) than strict LRU. The bounded randomness in CLOCK can also reduce "cliff" effect for repeated range scans approaching and exceeding cache size. ## Hot path algorithm comparison Rough descriptions, focusing on number and kind of atomic operations: * Old `Lookup()` (2-5 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment internal ref count at slot If possible hit: Check flags atomic (and non-atomic fields) If cache hit: Three distinct updates to 'flags' atomic Increment refs for internal-to-external Return Decrement internal ref count while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * New `Lookup()` (1-2 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment acquire counter in meta word (optimistic) If visible entry (already read meta word): If match (read non-atomic fields): Return Else: Decrement acquire counter in meta word Else if invisible entry (rare, already read meta word): Decrement acquire counter in meta word while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * Old `Release()` (1 atomic update, conditional on atomic read, rarely more): ``` Read atomic ref count If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return Else: Decrement ref count ``` * New `Release()` (1 unconditional atomic update, rarely more): ``` Increment release counter in meta word If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return ``` ## Performance test setup Build DB with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` Test with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=${CACHE_MB}000000 -duration 60 -threads=$THREADS -statistics ``` Numbers on a single socket Skylake Xeon system with 48 hardware threads, DEBUG_LEVEL=0 PORTABLE=0. Very similar story on a dual socket system with 80 hardware threads. Using (every 2nd) Fibonacci MB cache sizes to sample the territory between powers of two. Configurations: base: LRUCache before this change, but with db_bench change to default cache_numshardbits=-1 (instead of fixed at 6) folly: LRUCache before this change, with folly enabled (distributed mutex) but on an old compiler (sorry) gt_clock: experimental ClockCache before this change new_clock: experimental ClockCache with this change ## Performance test results First test "hot path" read performance, with block cache large enough for whole DB: 4181MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 47.761 4181MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 45.877 4181MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 51.092 4181MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 53.944 4181MB 16thread base -> kops/s: 284.567 4181MB 16thread folly -> kops/s: 249.015 4181MB 16thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 743.762 4181MB 16thread new_clock -> kops/s: 861.821 4181MB 24thread base -> kops/s: 303.415 4181MB 24thread folly -> kops/s: 266.548 4181MB 24thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 975.706 4181MB 24thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1205.64 (~= 24 * 53.944) 4181MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 311.251 4181MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 274.952 4181MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 1045.98 4181MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1370.38 4181MB 48thread base -> kops/s: 310.504 4181MB 48thread folly -> kops/s: 268.322 4181MB 48thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 1195.65 4181MB 48thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1604.85 (~= 24 * 1.25 * 53.944) 4181MB 64thread base -> kops/s: 307.839 4181MB 64thread folly -> kops/s: 272.172 4181MB 64thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 1204.47 4181MB 64thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1615.37 4181MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 310.934 4181MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 267.468 4181MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 1188.75 4181MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1595.46 Whether we have just one thread on a quiet system or an overload of threads, the new version wins every time in thousand-ops per second, sometimes dramatically so. Mutex-based implementation quickly becomes contention-limited. New clock cache shows essentially perfect scaling up to number of physical cores (24), and then each hyperthreaded core adding about 1/4 the throughput of an additional physical core (see 48 thread case). Block cache miss rates (omitted above) are negligible across the board. With partitioned instead of full filters, the maximum speed-up vs. base is more like 2.5x rather than 5x.

IMPORTANT: The previous generation experimental clock cache appears to hit a serious bottleneck in the higher thread count configurations, presumably due to some of its waiting functionality. (The same bottleneck is not seen with partitioned index+filters.)

This new clock cache only uses two shards for this configuration, and that helps to ensure that entries are part of a sufficiently big pool that their eviction order resembles the single-shard order.

Observe and warn about misconfigured HyperClockCache (#10965) Summary: Background. One of the core risks of chosing HyperClockCache is ending up with degraded performance if estimated_entry_charge is very significantly wrong. Too low leads to under-utilized hash table, which wastes a bit of (tracked) memory and likely increases access times due to larger working set size (more TLB misses). Too high leads to fully populated hash table (at some limit with reasonable lookup performance) and not being able to cache as many objects as the memory limit would allow. In either case, performance degradation is graceful/continuous but can be quite significant. For example, cutting block size in half without updating estimated_entry_charge could lead to a large portion of configured block cache memory (up to roughly 1/3) going unused. Fix. This change adds a mechanism through which the DB periodically probes the block cache(s) for "problems" to report, and adds diagnostics to the HyperClockCache for bad estimated_entry_charge. The periodic probing is currently done with DumpStats / stats_dump_period_sec, and diagnostics reported to info_log (normally LOG file). Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/10965 Test Plan: unit test included. Doesn't cover all the implemented subtleties of reporting, but ensures basics of when to report or not. Also manual testing with db_bench. Create db with ``` ./db_bench --benchmarks=fillrandom,flush --num=3000000 --disable_wal=1 ``` Use and check LOG file for HyperClockCache for various block sizes (used as estimated_entry_charge) ``` ./db_bench --use_existing_db --benchmarks=readrandom --num=3000000 --duration=20 --stats_dump_period_sec=8 --cache_type=hyper_clock_cache -block_size=XXXX ``` Seeing warnings / errors or not as expected.

Refactor ShardedCache for more sharing, static polymorphism (#10801) Summary: The motivations for this change include * Free up space in ClockHandle so that we can add data for secondary cache handling while still keeping within single cache line (64 byte) size. * This change frees up space by eliminating the need for the `hash` field by making the fixed-size key itself a hash, using a 128-bit bijective (lossless) hash. * Generally more customizability of ShardedCache (such as hashing) without worrying about virtual call overheads * ShardedCache now uses static polymorphism (template) instead of dynamic polymorphism (virtual overrides) for the CacheShard. No obvious performance benefit is seen from the change (as mostly expected; most calls to virtual functions in CacheShard could already be optimized to static calls), but offers more flexibility without incurring the runtime cost of adhering to a common interface (without type parameters or static callbacks). * You'll also notice less `reinterpret_cast`ing and other boilerplate in the Cache implementations, as this can go in ShardedCache. More detail: * Don't have LRUCacheShard maintain `std::shared_ptr<SecondaryCache>` copies (extra refcount) when LRUCache can be in charge of keeping a `shared_ptr`. * Renamed `capacity_mutex_` to `config_mutex_` to better represent the scope of what it guards. * Some preparation for 64-bit hash and indexing in LRUCache, but didn't include the full change because of slight performance regression. Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/10801 Test Plan: Unit test updates were non-trivial because of major changes to the ClockCacheShard interface in handling of key vs. hash.

Revamp, optimize new experimental clock cache (#10626) Summary: * Consolidates most metadata into a single word per slot so that more can be accomplished with a single atomic update. In the common case, Lookup was previously about 4 atomic updates, now just 1 atomic update. Common case Release was previously 1 atomic read + 1 atomic update, now just 1 atomic update. * Eliminate spins / waits / yields, which likely threaten some "lock free" benefits. Compare-exchange loops are only used in explicit Erase, and strict_capacity_limit=true Insert. Eviction uses opportunistic compare- exchange. * Relaxes some aggressiveness and guarantees. For example, * Duplicate Inserts will sometimes go undetected and the shadow duplicate will age out with eviction. * In many cases, the older Inserted value for a given cache key will be kept (i.e. Insert does not support overwrite). * Entries explicitly erased (rather than evicted) might not be freed immediately in some rare cases. * With strict_capacity_limit=false, capacity limit is not tracked/enforced as precisely as LRUCache, but is self-correcting and should only deviate by a very small number of extra or fewer entries. * Use smaller "computed default" number of cache shards in many cases, because benefits to larger usage tracking / eviction pools outweigh the small cost of more lock-free atomic contention. The improvement in CPU and I/O is dramatic in some limit-memory cases. * Even without the sharding change, the eviction algorithm is likely more effective than LRU overall because it's more stateful, even though the "hot path" state tracking for it is essentially free with ref counting. It is like a generalized CLOCK with aging (see code comments). I don't have performance numbers showing a specific improvement, but in theory, for a Poisson access pattern to each block, keeping some state allows better estimation of time to next access (Poisson interval) than strict LRU. The bounded randomness in CLOCK can also reduce "cliff" effect for repeated range scans approaching and exceeding cache size. ## Hot path algorithm comparison Rough descriptions, focusing on number and kind of atomic operations: * Old `Lookup()` (2-5 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment internal ref count at slot If possible hit: Check flags atomic (and non-atomic fields) If cache hit: Three distinct updates to 'flags' atomic Increment refs for internal-to-external Return Decrement internal ref count while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * New `Lookup()` (1-2 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment acquire counter in meta word (optimistic) If visible entry (already read meta word): If match (read non-atomic fields): Return Else: Decrement acquire counter in meta word Else if invisible entry (rare, already read meta word): Decrement acquire counter in meta word while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * Old `Release()` (1 atomic update, conditional on atomic read, rarely more): ``` Read atomic ref count If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return Else: Decrement ref count ``` * New `Release()` (1 unconditional atomic update, rarely more): ``` Increment release counter in meta word If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return ``` ## Performance test setup Build DB with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` Test with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=${CACHE_MB}000000 -duration 60 -threads=$THREADS -statistics ``` Numbers on a single socket Skylake Xeon system with 48 hardware threads, DEBUG_LEVEL=0 PORTABLE=0.

Mutex-based implementation quickly becomes contention-limited. New clock cache shows essentially perfect scaling up to number of physical cores (24), and then each hyperthreaded core adding about 1/4 the throughput of an additional physical core (see 48 thread case). Block cache miss rates (omitted above) are negligible across the board. With partitioned instead of full filters, the maximum speed-up vs. base is more like 2.5x rather than 5x.

(The same bottleneck is not seen with partitioned index+filters.)

This new clock cache only uses two shards for this configuration, and that helps to ensure that entries are part of a sufficiently big pool that their eviction order resembles the single-shard order.

void ApplyToSomeEntries(
Major Cache refactoring, CPU efficiency improvement (#10975) Summary: This is several refactorings bundled into one to avoid having to incrementally re-modify uses of Cache several times. Overall, there are breaking changes to Cache class, and it becomes more of low-level interface for implementing caches, especially block cache. New internal APIs make using Cache cleaner than before, and more insulated from block cache evolution. Hopefully, this is the last really big block cache refactoring, because of rather effectively decoupling the implementations from the uses. This change also removes the EXPERIMENTAL designation on the SecondaryCache support in Cache. It seems reasonably mature at this point but still subject to change/evolution (as I warn in the API docs for Cache). The high-level motivation for this refactoring is to minimize code duplication / compounding complexity in adding SecondaryCache support to HyperClockCache (in a later PR). Other benefits listed below. * static_cast lines of code +29 -35 (net removed 6) * reinterpret_cast lines of code +6 -32 (net removed 26) ## cache.h and secondary_cache.h * Always use CacheItemHelper with entries instead of just a Deleter. There are several motivations / justifications: * Simpler for implementations to deal with just one Insert and one Lookup. * Simpler and more efficient implementation because we don't have to track which entries are using helpers and which are using deleters * Gets rid of hack to classify cache entries by their deleter. Instead, the CacheItemHelper includes a CacheEntryRole. This simplifies a lot of code (cache_entry_roles.h almost eliminated). Fixes https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/9428. * Makes it trivial to adjust SecondaryCache behavior based on kind of block (e.g. don't re-compress filter blocks). * It is arguably less convenient for many direct users of Cache, but direct users of Cache are now rare with introduction of typed_cache.h (below). * I considered and rejected an alternative approach in which we reduce customizability by assuming each secondary cache compatible value starts with a Slice referencing the uncompressed block contents (already true or mostly true), but we apparently intend to stack secondary caches. Saving an entry from a compressed secondary to a lower tier requires custom handling offered by SaveToCallback, etc. * Make CreateCallback part of the helper and introduce CreateContext to work with it (alternative to https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/10562). This cleans up the interface while still allowing context to be provided for loading/parsing values into primary cache. This model works for async lookup in BlockBasedTable reader (reader owns a CreateContext) under the assumption that it always waits on secondary cache operations to finish. (Otherwise, the CreateContext could be destroyed while async operation depending on it continues.) This likely contributes most to the observed performance improvement because it saves an std::function backed by a heap allocation. * Use char* for serialized data, e.g. in SaveToCallback, where void* was confusingly used. (We use `char*` for serialized byte data all over RocksDB, with many advantages over `void*`. `memcpy` etc. are legacy APIs that should not be mimicked.) * Add a type alias Cache::ObjectPtr = void*, so that we can better indicate the intent of the void* when it is to be the object associated with a Cache entry. Related: started (but did not complete) a refactoring to move away from "value" of a cache entry toward "object" or "obj". (It is confusing to call Cache a key-value store (like DB) when it is really storing arbitrary in-memory objects, not byte strings.) * Remove unnecessary key param from DeleterFn. This is good for efficiency in HyperClockCache, which does not directly store the cache key in memory. (Alternative to https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/10774) * Add allocator to Cache DeleterFn. This is a kind of future-proofing change in case we get more serious about using the Cache allocator for memory tracked by the Cache. Right now, only the uncompressed block contents are allocated using the allocator, and a pointer to that allocator is saved as part of the cached object so that the deleter can use it. (See CacheAllocationPtr.) If in the future we are able to "flatten out" our Cache objects some more, it would be good not to have to track the allocator as part of each object. * Removes legacy `ApplyToAllCacheEntries` and changes `ApplyToAllEntries` signature for Deleter->CacheItemHelper change. ## typed_cache.h Adds various "typed" interfaces to the Cache as internal APIs, so that most uses of Cache can use simple type safe code without casting and without explicit deleters, etc. Almost all of the non-test, non-glue code uses of Cache have been migrated. (Follow-up work: CompressedSecondaryCache deserves deeper attention to migrate.) This change expands RocksDB's internal usage of metaprogramming and SFINAE (https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/sfinae). The existing usages of Cache are divided up at a high level into these new interfaces. See updated existing uses of Cache for examples of how these are used. * PlaceholderCacheInterface - Used for making cache reservations, with entries that have a charge but no value. * BasicTypedCacheInterface<TValue> - Used for primary cache storage of objects of type TValue, which can be cleaned up with std::default_delete<TValue>. The role is provided by TValue::kCacheEntryRole or given in an optional template parameter. * FullTypedCacheInterface<TValue, TCreateContext> - Used for secondary cache compatible storage of objects of type TValue. In addition to BasicTypedCacheInterface constraints, we require TValue::ContentSlice() to return persistable data. This simplifies usage for the normal case of simple secondary cache compatibility (can give you a Slice to the data already in memory). In addition to TCreateContext performing the role of Cache::CreateContext, it is also expected to provide a factory function for creating TValue. * For each of these, there's a "Shared" version (e.g. FullTypedSharedCacheInterface) that holds a shared_ptr to the Cache, rather than assuming external ownership by holding only a raw `Cache*`. These interfaces introduce specific handle types for each interface instantiation, so that it's easy to see what kind of object is controlled by a handle. (Ultimately, this might not be worth the extra complexity, but it seems OK so far.) Note: I attempted to make the cache 'charge' automatically inferred from the cache object type, such as by expecting an ApproximateMemoryUsage() function, but this is not so clean because there are cases where we need to compute the charge ahead of time and don't want to re-compute it. ## block_cache.h This header is essentially the replacement for the old block_like_traits.h. It includes various things to support block cache access with typed_cache.h for block-based table. ## block_based_table_reader.cc Before this change, accessing the block cache here was an awkward mix of static polymorphism (template TBlocklike) and switch-case on a dynamic BlockType value. This change mostly unifies on static polymorphism, relying on minor hacks in block_cache.h to distinguish variants of Block. We still check BlockType in some places (especially for stats, which could be improved in follow-up work) but at least the BlockType is a static constant from the template parameter. (No more awkward partial redundancy between static and dynamic info.) This likely contributes to the overall performance improvement, but hasn't been tested in isolation. The other key source of simplification here is a more unified system of creating block cache objects: for directly populating from primary cache and for promotion from secondary cache. Both use BlockCreateContext, for context and for factory functions. ## block_based_table_builder.cc, cache_dump_load_impl.cc Before this change, warming caches was super ugly code. Both of these source files had switch statements to basically transition from the dynamic BlockType world to the static TBlocklike world. None of that mess is needed anymore as there's a new, untyped WarmInCache function that handles all the details just as promotion from SecondaryCache would. (Fixes `TODO akanksha: Dedup below code` in block_based_table_builder.cc.) ## Everything else Mostly just updating Cache users to use new typed APIs when reasonably possible, or changed Cache APIs when not.

And likely a small improvement from not reconstituting key for DeleterFn.

Refactor ShardedCache for more sharing, static polymorphism (#10801) Summary: The motivations for this change include * Free up space in ClockHandle so that we can add data for secondary cache handling while still keeping within single cache line (64 byte) size. * This change frees up space by eliminating the need for the `hash` field by making the fixed-size key itself a hash, using a 128-bit bijective (lossless) hash. * Generally more customizability of ShardedCache (such as hashing) without worrying about virtual call overheads * ShardedCache now uses static polymorphism (template) instead of dynamic polymorphism (virtual overrides) for the CacheShard. No obvious performance benefit is seen from the change (as mostly expected; most calls to virtual functions in CacheShard could already be optimized to static calls), but offers more flexibility without incurring the runtime cost of adhering to a common interface (without type parameters or static callbacks). * You'll also notice less `reinterpret_cast`ing and other boilerplate in the Cache implementations, as this can go in ShardedCache. More detail: * Don't have LRUCacheShard maintain `std::shared_ptr<SecondaryCache>` copies (extra refcount) when LRUCache can be in charge of keeping a `shared_ptr`. * Renamed `capacity_mutex_` to `config_mutex_` to better represent the scope of what it guards. * Some preparation for 64-bit hash and indexing in LRUCache, but didn't include the full change because of slight performance regression.

Refactor (Hyper)ClockCache code (#10887) Summary: For clean-up and in preparation for some other anticipated changes, including * A new dynamically-scaling variant of HyperClockCache * SecondaryCache support for HyperClockCache This change does some refactoring for current and future code sharing and reusability. (Including follow-up on https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/10843) ## clock_cache.h * TBD whether new variant will be a HyperClockCache or use some other name, so namespace is just clock_cache for the family of structures. * A number of helper functions introduced and used. * Pre-emptively split ClockHandle (shared among lock-free clock cache variants) and HandleImpl (specific to a kind of Table), and introduce template to plug new Table implementation into ClockCacheShard. ## clock_cache.cc * Mostly using helper functions. Some things like `Rollback()` and `FreeDataMarkEmpty()` were not combined because `Rollback()` is Table-specific while `FreeDataMarkEmpty()` can be used with different table implementations. * Performance testing indicated that despite more opportunities for parallelism, making a local copy of handle data for processing after marking an entry empty was slower than doing that processing before marking the entry empty (but after marking it "under construction"), thus avoiding a few words of copying data. At least for now, this answers the "TODO? Delay freeing?" questions (no).

Major Cache refactoring, CPU efficiency improvement (#10975) Summary: This is several refactorings bundled into one to avoid having to incrementally re-modify uses of Cache several times. Overall, there are breaking changes to Cache class, and it becomes more of low-level interface for implementing caches, especially block cache. New internal APIs make using Cache cleaner than before, and more insulated from block cache evolution. Hopefully, this is the last really big block cache refactoring, because of rather effectively decoupling the implementations from the uses. This change also removes the EXPERIMENTAL designation on the SecondaryCache support in Cache. It seems reasonably mature at this point but still subject to change/evolution (as I warn in the API docs for Cache). The high-level motivation for this refactoring is to minimize code duplication / compounding complexity in adding SecondaryCache support to HyperClockCache (in a later PR). Other benefits listed below. * static_cast lines of code +29 -35 (net removed 6) * reinterpret_cast lines of code +6 -32 (net removed 26) ## cache.h and secondary_cache.h * Always use CacheItemHelper with entries instead of just a Deleter. There are several motivations / justifications: * Simpler for implementations to deal with just one Insert and one Lookup. * Simpler and more efficient implementation because we don't have to track which entries are using helpers and which are using deleters * Gets rid of hack to classify cache entries by their deleter. Instead, the CacheItemHelper includes a CacheEntryRole. This simplifies a lot of code (cache_entry_roles.h almost eliminated). Fixes https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/9428. * Makes it trivial to adjust SecondaryCache behavior based on kind of block (e.g. don't re-compress filter blocks). * It is arguably less convenient for many direct users of Cache, but direct users of Cache are now rare with introduction of typed_cache.h (below). * I considered and rejected an alternative approach in which we reduce customizability by assuming each secondary cache compatible value starts with a Slice referencing the uncompressed block contents (already true or mostly true), but we apparently intend to stack secondary caches. Saving an entry from a compressed secondary to a lower tier requires custom handling offered by SaveToCallback, etc. * Make CreateCallback part of the helper and introduce CreateContext to work with it (alternative to https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/10562). This cleans up the interface while still allowing context to be provided for loading/parsing values into primary cache. This model works for async lookup in BlockBasedTable reader (reader owns a CreateContext) under the assumption that it always waits on secondary cache operations to finish. (Otherwise, the CreateContext could be destroyed while async operation depending on it continues.) This likely contributes most to the observed performance improvement because it saves an std::function backed by a heap allocation. * Use char* for serialized data, e.g. in SaveToCallback, where void* was confusingly used. (We use `char*` for serialized byte data all over RocksDB, with many advantages over `void*`. `memcpy` etc. are legacy APIs that should not be mimicked.) * Add a type alias Cache::ObjectPtr = void*, so that we can better indicate the intent of the void* when it is to be the object associated with a Cache entry. Related: started (but did not complete) a refactoring to move away from "value" of a cache entry toward "object" or "obj". (It is confusing to call Cache a key-value store (like DB) when it is really storing arbitrary in-memory objects, not byte strings.) * Remove unnecessary key param from DeleterFn. This is good for efficiency in HyperClockCache, which does not directly store the cache key in memory. (Alternative to https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/10774) * Add allocator to Cache DeleterFn. This is a kind of future-proofing change in case we get more serious about using the Cache allocator for memory tracked by the Cache. Right now, only the uncompressed block contents are allocated using the allocator, and a pointer to that allocator is saved as part of the cached object so that the deleter can use it. (See CacheAllocationPtr.) If in the future we are able to "flatten out" our Cache objects some more, it would be good not to have to track the allocator as part of each object. * Removes legacy `ApplyToAllCacheEntries` and changes `ApplyToAllEntries` signature for Deleter->CacheItemHelper change. ## typed_cache.h Adds various "typed" interfaces to the Cache as internal APIs, so that most uses of Cache can use simple type safe code without casting and without explicit deleters, etc. Almost all of the non-test, non-glue code uses of Cache have been migrated. (Follow-up work: CompressedSecondaryCache deserves deeper attention to migrate.) This change expands RocksDB's internal usage of metaprogramming and SFINAE (https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/sfinae). The existing usages of Cache are divided up at a high level into these new interfaces. See updated existing uses of Cache for examples of how these are used. * PlaceholderCacheInterface - Used for making cache reservations, with entries that have a charge but no value. * BasicTypedCacheInterface<TValue> - Used for primary cache storage of objects of type TValue, which can be cleaned up with std::default_delete<TValue>. The role is provided by TValue::kCacheEntryRole or given in an optional template parameter. * FullTypedCacheInterface<TValue, TCreateContext> - Used for secondary cache compatible storage of objects of type TValue. In addition to BasicTypedCacheInterface constraints, we require TValue::ContentSlice() to return persistable data. This simplifies usage for the normal case of simple secondary cache compatibility (can give you a Slice to the data already in memory). In addition to TCreateContext performing the role of Cache::CreateContext, it is also expected to provide a factory function for creating TValue. * For each of these, there's a "Shared" version (e.g. FullTypedSharedCacheInterface) that holds a shared_ptr to the Cache, rather than assuming external ownership by holding only a raw `Cache*`. These interfaces introduce specific handle types for each interface instantiation, so that it's easy to see what kind of object is controlled by a handle. (Ultimately, this might not be worth the extra complexity, but it seems OK so far.) Note: I attempted to make the cache 'charge' automatically inferred from the cache object type, such as by expecting an ApproximateMemoryUsage() function, but this is not so clean because there are cases where we need to compute the charge ahead of time and don't want to re-compute it. ## block_cache.h This header is essentially the replacement for the old block_like_traits.h. It includes various things to support block cache access with typed_cache.h for block-based table. ## block_based_table_reader.cc Before this change, accessing the block cache here was an awkward mix of static polymorphism (template TBlocklike) and switch-case on a dynamic BlockType value. This change mostly unifies on static polymorphism, relying on minor hacks in block_cache.h to distinguish variants of Block. We still check BlockType in some places (especially for stats, which could be improved in follow-up work) but at least the BlockType is a static constant from the template parameter. (No more awkward partial redundancy between static and dynamic info.) This likely contributes to the overall performance improvement, but hasn't been tested in isolation. The other key source of simplification here is a more unified system of creating block cache objects: for directly populating from primary cache and for promotion from secondary cache. Both use BlockCreateContext, for context and for factory functions. ## block_based_table_builder.cc, cache_dump_load_impl.cc Before this change, warming caches was super ugly code. Both of these source files had switch statements to basically transition from the dynamic BlockType world to the static TBlocklike world. None of that mess is needed anymore as there's a new, untyped WarmInCache function that handles all the details just as promotion from SecondaryCache would. (Fixes `TODO akanksha: Dedup below code` in block_based_table_builder.cc.) ## Everything else Mostly just updating Cache users to use new typed APIs when reasonably possible, or changed Cache APIs when not.

And likely a small improvement from not reconstituting key for DeleterFn.

Cache::CreateContext* /*create_context*/,
HyperClockCache support for SecondaryCache, with refactoring (#11301) Summary: Internally refactors SecondaryCache integration out of LRUCache specifically and into a wrapper/adapter class that works with various Cache implementations. Notably, this relies on separating the notion of async lookup handles from other cache handles, so that HyperClockCache doesn't have to deal with the problem of allocating handles from the hash table for lookups that might fail anyway, and might be on the same key without support for coalescing. (LRUCache's hash table can incorporate previously allocated handles thanks to its pointer indirection.) Specifically, I'm worried about the case in which hundreds of threads try to access the same block and probing in the hash table degrades to linear search on the pile of entries with the same key. This change is a big step in the direction of supporting stacked SecondaryCaches, but there are obstacles to completing that. Especially, there is no SecondaryCache hook for evictions to pass from one to the next. It has been proposed that evictions be transmitted simply as the persisted data (as in SaveToCallback), but given the current structure provided by the CacheItemHelpers, that would require an extra copy of the block data, because there's intentionally no way to ask for a contiguous Slice of the data (to allow for flexibility in storage). `AsyncLookupHandle` and the re-worked `WaitAll()` should be essentially prepared for stacked SecondaryCaches, but several "TODO with stacked secondaries" issues remain in various places. It could be argued that the stacking instead be done as a SecondaryCache adapter that wraps two (or more) SecondaryCaches, but at least with the current API that would require an extra heap allocation on SecondaryCache Lookup for a wrapper SecondaryCacheResultHandle that can transfer a Lookup between secondaries. We could also consider trying to unify the Cache and SecondaryCache APIs, though that might be difficult if `AsyncLookupHandle` is kept a fixed struct. ## cache.h (public API) Moves `secondary_cache` option from LRUCacheOptions to ShardedCacheOptions so that it is applicable to HyperClockCache. ## advanced_cache.h (advanced public API) * Add `Cache::CreateStandalone()` so that the SecondaryCache support wrapper can use it. * Add `SetEvictionCallback()` / `eviction_callback_` so that the SecondaryCache support wrapper can use it. Only a single callback is supported for efficiency. If there is ever a need for more than one, hopefully that can be handled with a broadcast callback wrapper. These are essentially the two "extra" pieces of `Cache` for pulling out specific SecondaryCache support from the `Cache` implementation. I think it's a good trade-off as these are reasonable, limited, and reusable "cut points" into the `Cache` implementations. * Remove async capability from standard `Lookup()` (getting rid of awkward restrictions on pending Handles) and add `AsyncLookupHandle` and `StartAsyncLookup()`. As noted in the comments, the full struct of `AsyncLookupHandle` is exposed so that it can be stack allocated, for efficiency, though more data is being copied around than before, which could impact performance. (Lookup info -> AsyncLookupHandle -> Handle vs. Lookup info -> Handle) I could foresee a future in which a Cache internally saves a pointer to the AsyncLookupHandle, which means it's dangerous to allow it to be copyable or even movable. It also means it's not compatible with std::vector (which I don't like requiring as an API parameter anyway), so `WaitAll()` expects any contiguous array of AsyncLookupHandles. I believe this is best for common case efficiency, while behaving well in other cases also. For example, `WaitAll()` has no effect on default-constructed AsyncLookupHandles, which look like a completed cache miss. ## cacheable_entry.h A couple of functions are obsolete because Cache::Handle can no longer be pending. ## cache.cc Provides default implementations for new or revamped Cache functions, especially appropriate for non-blocking caches. ## secondary_cache_adapter.{h,cc} The full details of the Cache wrapper adding SecondaryCache support. Essentially replicates the SecondaryCache handling that was in LRUCache, but obviously refactored. There is a bit of logic duplication, where Lookup() is essentially a manually optimized version of StartAsyncLookup() and Wait(), but it's roughly a dozen lines of code. ## sharded_cache.h, typed_cache.h, charged_cache.{h,cc}, sim_cache.cc Simply updated for Cache API changes. ## lru_cache.{h,cc} Carefully remove SecondaryCache logic, implement `CreateStandalone` and eviction handler functionality. ## clock_cache.{h,cc} Expose existing `CreateStandalone` functionality, add eviction handler functionality. Light refactoring. ## block_based_table_reader* Mostly re-worked the only usage of async Lookup, which is in BlockBasedTable::MultiGet. Used arrays in place of autovector in some places for efficiency. Simplified some logic by not trying to process some cache results before they're all ready. Created new function `BlockBasedTable::GetCachePriority()` to reduce some pre-existing code duplication (and avoid making it worse). Fixed at least one small bug from the prior confusing mixture of async and sync Lookups. In MaybeReadBlockAndLoadToCache(), called by RetrieveBlock(), called by MultiGet() with wait=false, is_cache_hit for the block_cache_tracer entry would not be set to true if the handle was pending after Lookup and before Wait. ## Intended follow-up work * Figure out if there are any missing stats or block_cache_tracer work in refactored BlockBasedTable::MultiGet * Stacked secondary caches (see above discussion) * See if we can make up for the small MultiGet performance regression. * Study more performance with SecondaryCache * Items evicted from over-full LRUCache in Release were not being demoted to SecondaryCache, and still aren't to minimize unit test churn. Ideally they would be demoted, but it's an exceptional case so not a big deal. * Use CreateStandalone for cache reservations (save unnecessary hash table operations). Not a big deal, but worthy cleanup. * Somehow I got the contract for SecondaryCache::Insert wrong in #10945. (Doesn't take ownership!) That API comment needs to be fixed, but didn't want to mingle that in here. Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/11301 Test Plan: ## Unit tests Generally updated to include HCC in SecondaryCache tests, though HyperClockCache has some different, less strict behaviors that leads to some tests not really being set up to work with it. Some of the tests remain disabled with it, but I think we have good coverage without them. ## Crash/stress test Updated to use the new combination. ## Performance First, let's check for regression on caches without secondary cache configured. Adding support for the eviction callback is likely to have a tiny effect, but it shouldn't be worrisome. LRUCache could benefit slightly from less logic around SecondaryCache handling. We can test with cache_bench default settings, built with DEBUG_LEVEL=0 and PORTABLE=0. ``` (while :; do base/cache_bench --cache_type=hyper_clock_cache | grep Rough; done) | awk '{ sum += $9; count++; print $0; print "Average: " int(sum / count) }' ``` **Before** this and #11299 (which could also have a small effect), running for about an hour, before & after running concurrently for each cache type: HyperClockCache: 3168662 (average parallel ops/sec) LRUCache: 2940127 **After** this and #11299, running for about an hour: HyperClockCache: 3164862 (average parallel ops/sec) (0.12% slower) LRUCache: 2940928 (0.03% faster) This is an acceptable difference IMHO. Next, let's consider essentially the worst case of new CPU overhead affecting overall performance. MultiGet uses the async lookup interface regardless of whether SecondaryCache or folly are used. We can configure a benchmark where all block cache queries are for data blocks, and all are hits. Create DB and test (before and after tests running simultaneously): ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm base/db_bench -benchmarks=multireadrandom[-X30] -readonly -multiread_batched -batch_size=32 -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_size=6789000000 -duration 20 -threads=16 ``` **Before**: multireadrandom [AVG 30 runs] : 3444202 (± 57049) ops/sec; 240.9 (± 4.0) MB/sec multireadrandom [MEDIAN 30 runs] : 3514443 ops/sec; 245.8 MB/sec **After**: multireadrandom [AVG 30 runs] : 3291022 (± 58851) ops/sec; 230.2 (± 4.1) MB/sec multireadrandom [MEDIAN 30 runs] : 3366179 ops/sec; 235.4 MB/sec So that's roughly a 3% regression, on kind of a *worst case* test of MultiGet CPU. Similar story with HyperClockCache: **Before**: multireadrandom [AVG 30 runs] : 3933777 (± 41840) ops/sec; 275.1 (± 2.9) MB/sec multireadrandom [MEDIAN 30 runs] : 3970667 ops/sec; 277.7 MB/sec **After**: multireadrandom [AVG 30 runs] : 3755338 (± 30391) ops/sec; 262.6 (± 2.1) MB/sec multireadrandom [MEDIAN 30 runs] : 3785696 ops/sec; 264.8 MB/sec Roughly a 4-5% regression. Not ideal, but not the whole story, fortunately. Let's also look at Get() in db_bench: ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom[-X30] -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_size=6789000000 -duration 20 -threads=16 ``` **Before**: readrandom [AVG 30 runs] : 2198685 (± 13412) ops/sec; 153.8 (± 0.9) MB/sec readrandom [MEDIAN 30 runs] : 2209498 ops/sec; 154.5 MB/sec **After**: readrandom [AVG 30 runs] : 2292814 (± 43508) ops/sec; 160.3 (± 3.0) MB/sec readrandom [MEDIAN 30 runs] : 2365181 ops/sec; 165.4 MB/sec That's showing roughly a 4% improvement, perhaps because of the secondary cache code that is no longer part of LRUCache. But weirdly, HyperClockCache is also showing 2-3% improvement: **Before**: readrandom [AVG 30 runs] : 2272333 (± 9992) ops/sec; 158.9 (± 0.7) MB/sec readrandom [MEDIAN 30 runs] : 2273239 ops/sec; 159.0 MB/sec **After**: readrandom [AVG 30 runs] : 2332407 (± 11252) ops/sec; 163.1 (± 0.8) MB/sec readrandom [MEDIAN 30 runs] : 2335329 ops/sec; 163.3 MB/sec Reviewed By: ltamasi Differential Revision: D44177044 Pulled By: pdillinger fbshipit-source-id: e808e48ff3fe2f792a79841ba617be98e48689f5

Cache::Priority /*priority*/, Statistics* /*stats*/) {
Refactor ShardedCache for more sharing, static polymorphism (#10801) Summary: The motivations for this change include * Free up space in ClockHandle so that we can add data for secondary cache handling while still keeping within single cache line (64 byte) size. * This change frees up space by eliminating the need for the `hash` field by making the fixed-size key itself a hash, using a 128-bit bijective (lossless) hash. * Generally more customizability of ShardedCache (such as hashing) without worrying about virtual call overheads * ShardedCache now uses static polymorphism (template) instead of dynamic polymorphism (virtual overrides) for the CacheShard. No obvious performance benefit is seen from the change (as mostly expected; most calls to virtual functions in CacheShard could already be optimized to static calls), but offers more flexibility without incurring the runtime cost of adhering to a common interface (without type parameters or static callbacks). * You'll also notice less `reinterpret_cast`ing and other boilerplate in the Cache implementations, as this can go in ShardedCache. More detail: * Don't have LRUCacheShard maintain `std::shared_ptr<SecondaryCache>` copies (extra refcount) when LRUCache can be in charge of keeping a `shared_ptr`. * Renamed `capacity_mutex_` to `config_mutex_` to better represent the scope of what it guards. * Some preparation for 64-bit hash and indexing in LRUCache, but didn't include the full change because of slight performance regression.

return Lookup(key, hashed_key);
Revamp, optimize new experimental clock cache (#10626) Summary: * Consolidates most metadata into a single word per slot so that more can be accomplished with a single atomic update. In the common case, Lookup was previously about 4 atomic updates, now just 1 atomic update. Common case Release was previously 1 atomic read + 1 atomic update, now just 1 atomic update. * Eliminate spins / waits / yields, which likely threaten some "lock free" benefits. Compare-exchange loops are only used in explicit Erase, and strict_capacity_limit=true Insert. Eviction uses opportunistic compare- exchange. * Relaxes some aggressiveness and guarantees. For example, * Duplicate Inserts will sometimes go undetected and the shadow duplicate will age out with eviction. * In many cases, the older Inserted value for a given cache key will be kept (i.e. Insert does not support overwrite). * Entries explicitly erased (rather than evicted) might not be freed immediately in some rare cases. * With strict_capacity_limit=false, capacity limit is not tracked/enforced as precisely as LRUCache, but is self-correcting and should only deviate by a very small number of extra or fewer entries. * Use smaller "computed default" number of cache shards in many cases, because benefits to larger usage tracking / eviction pools outweigh the small cost of more lock-free atomic contention. The improvement in CPU and I/O is dramatic in some limit-memory cases. * Even without the sharding change, the eviction algorithm is likely more effective than LRU overall because it's more stateful, even though the "hot path" state tracking for it is essentially free with ref counting. It is like a generalized CLOCK with aging (see code comments). I don't have performance numbers showing a specific improvement, but in theory, for a Poisson access pattern to each block, keeping some state allows better estimation of time to next access (Poisson interval) than strict LRU. The bounded randomness in CLOCK can also reduce "cliff" effect for repeated range scans approaching and exceeding cache size. ## Hot path algorithm comparison Rough descriptions, focusing on number and kind of atomic operations: * Old `Lookup()` (2-5 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment internal ref count at slot If possible hit: Check flags atomic (and non-atomic fields) If cache hit: Three distinct updates to 'flags' atomic Increment refs for internal-to-external Return Decrement internal ref count while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * New `Lookup()` (1-2 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment acquire counter in meta word (optimistic) If visible entry (already read meta word): If match (read non-atomic fields): Return Else: Decrement acquire counter in meta word Else if invisible entry (rare, already read meta word): Decrement acquire counter in meta word while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * Old `Release()` (1 atomic update, conditional on atomic read, rarely more): ``` Read atomic ref count If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return Else: Decrement ref count ``` * New `Release()` (1 unconditional atomic update, rarely more): ``` Increment release counter in meta word If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return ``` ## Performance test setup Build DB with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` Test with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=${CACHE_MB}000000 -duration 60 -threads=$THREADS -statistics ``` Numbers on a single socket Skylake Xeon system with 48 hardware threads, DEBUG_LEVEL=0 PORTABLE=0.

Mutex-based implementation quickly becomes contention-limited. New clock cache shows essentially perfect scaling up to number of physical cores (24), and then each hyperthreaded core adding about 1/4 the throughput of an additional physical core (see 48 thread case). Block cache miss rates (omitted above) are negligible across the board. With partitioned instead of full filters, the maximum speed-up vs. base is more like 2.5x rather than 5x.

This new clock cache only uses two shards for this configuration, and that helps to ensure that entries are part of a sufficiently big pool that their eviction order resembles the single-shard order. (This effect is not seen with partitioned index+filters.)

Placeholder for AutoHyperClockCache, more (#11692) Summary: * The plan is for AutoHyperClockCache to be selected when HyperClockCacheOptions::estimated_entry_charge == 0, and in that case to use a new configuration option min_avg_entry_charge for determining an extreme case maximum size for the hash table. For the placeholder, a hack is in place in HyperClockCacheOptions::MakeSharedCache() to make the unit tests happy despite the new options not really making sense with the current implementation. * Mostly updating and refactoring tests to test both the current HCC (internal name FixedHyperClockCache) and a placeholder for the new version (internal name AutoHyperClockCache). * Simplify some existing tests not to depend directly on cache type. * Type-parameterize the shard-level unit tests, which unfortunately requires more syntax like `this->` in places for disambiguation. * Added means of choosing auto_hyper_clock_cache to cache_bench, db_bench, and db_stress, including add to crash test. * Add another templated class BaseHyperClockCache to reduce future copy-paste * Added ReportProblems support to cache_bench * Added a DEBUG-level diagnostic to ReportProblems for the variance in load factor throughout the table, which will become more of a concern with linear hashing to be used in the Auto implementation. Example with current Fixed HCC: ``` 2023/08/10-13:41:41.602450 6ac36 [DEBUG] [che/clock_cache.cc:1507] Slot occupancy stats: Overall 49% (129008/262144), Min/Max/Window = 39%/60%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 18/17 ``` In other words, with overall occupancy of 49%, the lowest across any 500 contiguous cells is 39% and highest 60%.

Revamp, optimize new experimental clock cache (#10626) Summary: * Consolidates most metadata into a single word per slot so that more can be accomplished with a single atomic update. In the common case, Lookup was previously about 4 atomic updates, now just 1 atomic update. Common case Release was previously 1 atomic read + 1 atomic update, now just 1 atomic update. * Eliminate spins / waits / yields, which likely threaten some "lock free" benefits. Compare-exchange loops are only used in explicit Erase, and strict_capacity_limit=true Insert. Eviction uses opportunistic compare- exchange. * Relaxes some aggressiveness and guarantees. For example, * Duplicate Inserts will sometimes go undetected and the shadow duplicate will age out with eviction. * In many cases, the older Inserted value for a given cache key will be kept (i.e. Insert does not support overwrite). * Entries explicitly erased (rather than evicted) might not be freed immediately in some rare cases. * With strict_capacity_limit=false, capacity limit is not tracked/enforced as precisely as LRUCache, but is self-correcting and should only deviate by a very small number of extra or fewer entries. * Use smaller "computed default" number of cache shards in many cases, because benefits to larger usage tracking / eviction pools outweigh the small cost of more lock-free atomic contention. The improvement in CPU and I/O is dramatic in some limit-memory cases. * Even without the sharding change, the eviction algorithm is likely more effective than LRU overall because it's more stateful, even though the "hot path" state tracking for it is essentially free with ref counting. It is like a generalized CLOCK with aging (see code comments). I don't have performance numbers showing a specific improvement, but in theory, for a Poisson access pattern to each block, keeping some state allows better estimation of time to next access (Poisson interval) than strict LRU. The bounded randomness in CLOCK can also reduce "cliff" effect for repeated range scans approaching and exceeding cache size. ## Hot path algorithm comparison Rough descriptions, focusing on number and kind of atomic operations: * Old `Lookup()` (2-5 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment internal ref count at slot If possible hit: Check flags atomic (and non-atomic fields) If cache hit: Three distinct updates to 'flags' atomic Increment refs for internal-to-external Return Decrement internal ref count while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * New `Lookup()` (1-2 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment acquire counter in meta word (optimistic) If visible entry (already read meta word): If match (read non-atomic fields): Return Else: Decrement acquire counter in meta word Else if invisible entry (rare, already read meta word): Decrement acquire counter in meta word while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * Old `Release()` (1 atomic update, conditional on atomic read, rarely more): ``` Read atomic ref count If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return Else: Decrement ref count ``` * New `Release()` (1 unconditional atomic update, rarely more): ``` Increment release counter in meta word If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return ``` ## Performance test setup Build DB with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` Test with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=${CACHE_MB}000000 -duration 60 -threads=$THREADS -statistics ``` Numbers on a single socket Skylake Xeon system with 48 hardware threads, DEBUG_LEVEL=0 PORTABLE=0. Very similar story on a dual socket system with 80 hardware threads. Using (every 2nd) Fibonacci MB cache sizes to sample the territory between powers of two.

Mutex-based implementation quickly becomes contention-limited. New clock cache shows essentially perfect scaling up to number of physical cores (24), and then each hyperthreaded core adding about 1/4 the throughput of an additional physical core (see 48 thread case). Block cache miss rates (omitted above) are negligible across the board. With partitioned instead of full filters, the maximum speed-up vs. base is more like 2.5x rather than 5x. Now test a large block cache with low miss ratio, but some eviction is required: 1597MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 46.603 io_bytes/op: 1584.63 miss_ratio: 0.0201066 max_rss_mb: 1589.23 1597MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 45.079 io_bytes/op: 1530.03 miss_ratio: 0.019872 max_rss_mb: 1550.43 1597MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 48.711 io_bytes/op: 1566.63 miss_ratio: 0.0198923 max_rss_mb: 1691.4 1597MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 51.531 io_bytes/op: 1589.07 miss_ratio: 0.0201969 max_rss_mb: 1583.56 1597MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 301.174 io_bytes/op: 1439.52 miss_ratio: 0.0184218 max_rss_mb: 1656.59 1597MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 273.09 io_bytes/op: 1375.12 miss_ratio: 0.0180002 max_rss_mb: 1586.8 1597MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 904.497 io_bytes/op: 1411.29 miss_ratio: 0.0179934 max_rss_mb: 1775.89 1597MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1182.59 io_bytes/op: 1440.77 miss_ratio: 0.0185449 max_rss_mb: 1636.45 1597MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 309.91 io_bytes/op: 1438.25 miss_ratio: 0.018399 max_rss_mb: 1689.98 1597MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 267.605 io_bytes/op: 1394.16 miss_ratio: 0.0180286 max_rss_mb: 1631.91 1597MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 691.518 io_bytes/op: 9056.73 miss_ratio: 0.0186572 max_rss_mb: 1982.26 1597MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1406.12 io_bytes/op: 1440.82 miss_ratio: 0.0185463 max_rss_mb: 1685.63 610MB 1thread base -> kops/s: 45.511 io_bytes/op: 2279.61 miss_ratio: 0.0290528 max_rss_mb: 615.137 610MB 1thread folly -> kops/s: 43.386 io_bytes/op: 2217.29 miss_ratio: 0.0289282 max_rss_mb: 600.996 610MB 1thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 46.207 io_bytes/op: 2275.51 miss_ratio: 0.0290057 max_rss_mb: 637.934 610MB 1thread new_clock -> kops/s: 48.879 io_bytes/op: 2283.1 miss_ratio: 0.0291253 max_rss_mb: 613.5 610MB 32thread base -> kops/s: 306.59 io_bytes/op: 2250 miss_ratio: 0.0288721 max_rss_mb: 683.402 610MB 32thread folly -> kops/s: 269.176 io_bytes/op: 2187.86 miss_ratio: 0.0286938 max_rss_mb: 628.742 610MB 32thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 855.097 io_bytes/op: 2279.26 miss_ratio: 0.0288009 max_rss_mb: 733.062 610MB 32thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1121.47 io_bytes/op: 2244.29 miss_ratio: 0.0289046 max_rss_mb: 666.453 610MB 128thread base -> kops/s: 305.079 io_bytes/op: 2252.43 miss_ratio: 0.0288884 max_rss_mb: 723.457 610MB 128thread folly -> kops/s: 269.583 io_bytes/op: 2204.58 miss_ratio: 0.0287001 max_rss_mb: 676.426 610MB 128thread gt_clock -> kops/s: 53.298 io_bytes/op: 8128.98 miss_ratio: 0.0292452 max_rss_mb: 956.273 610MB 128thread new_clock -> kops/s: 1301.09 io_bytes/op: 2246.04 miss_ratio: 0.0289171 max_rss_mb: 788.812 The new version is still winning every time, sometimes dramatically so, and we can tell from the maximum resident memory numbers (which contain some noise, by the way) that the new cache is not cheating on memory usage.

This new clock cache only uses two shards for this configuration, and that helps to ensure that entries are part of a sufficiently big pool that their eviction order resembles the single-shard order.

Refactor (Hyper)ClockCache code (#10887) Summary: For clean-up and in preparation for some other anticipated changes, including * A new dynamically-scaling variant of HyperClockCache * SecondaryCache support for HyperClockCache This change does some refactoring for current and future code sharing and reusability. (Including follow-up on https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/10843) ## clock_cache.h * TBD whether new variant will be a HyperClockCache or use some other name, so namespace is just clock_cache for the family of structures. * A number of helper functions introduced and used. * Pre-emptively split ClockHandle (shared among lock-free clock cache variants) and HandleImpl (specific to a kind of Table), and introduce template to plug new Table implementation into ClockCacheShard. ## clock_cache.cc * Mostly using helper functions. Some things like `Rollback()` and `FreeDataMarkEmpty()` were not combined because `Rollback()` is Table-specific while `FreeDataMarkEmpty()` can be used with different table implementations. * Performance testing indicated that despite more opportunities for parallelism, making a local copy of handle data for processing after marking an entry empty was slower than doing that processing before marking the entry empty (but after marking it "under construction"), thus avoiding a few words of copying data. At least for now, this answers the "TODO? Delay freeing?" questions (no).

Some small improvements to HyperClockCache (#11601) Summary: Stacked on https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/11572 * Minimize use of std::function and lambdas to minimize chances of compiler heap-allocating closures (unnecessary stress on allocator). It appears that converting FindSlot to a template enables inlining the lambda parameters, avoiding heap allocations. * Clean up some logic with FindSlot (FIXMEs from https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/11572) * Fix handling of rare case of probing all slots, with new unit test. (Previously Insert would not roll back displacements in that case, which would kill performance if it were to happen.) * Add an -early_exit option to cache_bench for gathering memory stats before deallocation.

Revamp, optimize new experimental clock cache (#10626) Summary: * Consolidates most metadata into a single word per slot so that more can be accomplished with a single atomic update. In the common case, Lookup was previously about 4 atomic updates, now just 1 atomic update. Common case Release was previously 1 atomic read + 1 atomic update, now just 1 atomic update. * Eliminate spins / waits / yields, which likely threaten some "lock free" benefits. Compare-exchange loops are only used in explicit Erase, and strict_capacity_limit=true Insert. Eviction uses opportunistic compare- exchange. * Relaxes some aggressiveness and guarantees. For example, * Duplicate Inserts will sometimes go undetected and the shadow duplicate will age out with eviction. * In many cases, the older Inserted value for a given cache key will be kept (i.e. Insert does not support overwrite). * Entries explicitly erased (rather than evicted) might not be freed immediately in some rare cases. * With strict_capacity_limit=false, capacity limit is not tracked/enforced as precisely as LRUCache, but is self-correcting and should only deviate by a very small number of extra or fewer entries. * Use smaller "computed default" number of cache shards in many cases, because benefits to larger usage tracking / eviction pools outweigh the small cost of more lock-free atomic contention. The improvement in CPU and I/O is dramatic in some limit-memory cases. * Even without the sharding change, the eviction algorithm is likely more effective than LRU overall because it's more stateful, even though the "hot path" state tracking for it is essentially free with ref counting. It is like a generalized CLOCK with aging (see code comments). I don't have performance numbers showing a specific improvement, but in theory, for a Poisson access pattern to each block, keeping some state allows better estimation of time to next access (Poisson interval) than strict LRU. The bounded randomness in CLOCK can also reduce "cliff" effect for repeated range scans approaching and exceeding cache size. ## Hot path algorithm comparison Rough descriptions, focusing on number and kind of atomic operations: * Old `Lookup()` (2-5 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment internal ref count at slot If possible hit: Check flags atomic (and non-atomic fields) If cache hit: Three distinct updates to 'flags' atomic Increment refs for internal-to-external Return Decrement internal ref count while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * New `Lookup()` (1-2 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment acquire counter in meta word (optimistic) If visible entry (already read meta word): If match (read non-atomic fields): Return Else: Decrement acquire counter in meta word Else if invisible entry (rare, already read meta word): Decrement acquire counter in meta word while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * Old `Release()` (1 atomic update, conditional on atomic read, rarely more): ``` Read atomic ref count If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return Else: Decrement ref count ``` * New `Release()` (1 unconditional atomic update, rarely more): ``` Increment release counter in meta word If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return ``` ## Performance test setup Build DB with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` Test with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=${CACHE_MB}000000 -duration 60 -threads=$THREADS -statistics ``` Numbers on a single socket Skylake Xeon system with 48 hardware threads, DEBUG_LEVEL=0 PORTABLE=0.

Mutex-based implementation quickly becomes contention-limited. New clock cache shows essentially perfect scaling up to number of physical cores (24), and then each hyperthreaded core adding about 1/4 the throughput of an additional physical core (see 48 thread case). Block cache miss rates (omitted above) are negligible across the board. With partitioned instead of full filters, the maximum speed-up vs. base is more like 2.5x rather than 5x.

This new clock cache only uses two shards for this configuration, and that helps to ensure that entries are part of a sufficiently big pool that their eviction order resembles the single-shard order.

Refactor (Hyper)ClockCache code (#10887) Summary: For clean-up and in preparation for some other anticipated changes, including * A new dynamically-scaling variant of HyperClockCache * SecondaryCache support for HyperClockCache This change does some refactoring for current and future code sharing and reusability. (Including follow-up on https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/10843) ## clock_cache.h * TBD whether new variant will be a HyperClockCache or use some other name, so namespace is just clock_cache for the family of structures. * A number of helper functions introduced and used. * Pre-emptively split ClockHandle (shared among lock-free clock cache variants) and HandleImpl (specific to a kind of Table), and introduce template to plug new Table implementation into ClockCacheShard. ## clock_cache.cc * Mostly using helper functions. Some things like `Rollback()` and `FreeDataMarkEmpty()` were not combined because `Rollback()` is Table-specific while `FreeDataMarkEmpty()` can be used with different table implementations. * Performance testing indicated that despite more opportunities for parallelism, making a local copy of handle data for processing after marking an entry empty was slower than doing that processing before marking the entry empty (but after marking it "under construction"), thus avoiding a few words of copying data. At least for now, this answers the "TODO? Delay freeing?" questions (no). Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/10887 Test Plan: fixed a unit testing gap; other minor test updates for refactoring No functionality change ## Performance Same setup as https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/10801: Before: `readrandom [AVG 81 runs] : 627992 (± 5124) ops/sec` After: `readrandom [AVG 81 runs] : 637512 (± 4866) ops/sec` I've been getting some inconsistent results on restarts like the system is not being fair to the two processes, so I'm not sure there's such a real difference.

Revamp, optimize new experimental clock cache (#10626) Summary: * Consolidates most metadata into a single word per slot so that more can be accomplished with a single atomic update. In the common case, Lookup was previously about 4 atomic updates, now just 1 atomic update. Common case Release was previously 1 atomic read + 1 atomic update, now just 1 atomic update. * Eliminate spins / waits / yields, which likely threaten some "lock free" benefits. Compare-exchange loops are only used in explicit Erase, and strict_capacity_limit=true Insert. Eviction uses opportunistic compare- exchange. * Relaxes some aggressiveness and guarantees. For example, * Duplicate Inserts will sometimes go undetected and the shadow duplicate will age out with eviction. * In many cases, the older Inserted value for a given cache key will be kept (i.e. Insert does not support overwrite). * Entries explicitly erased (rather than evicted) might not be freed immediately in some rare cases. * With strict_capacity_limit=false, capacity limit is not tracked/enforced as precisely as LRUCache, but is self-correcting and should only deviate by a very small number of extra or fewer entries. * Use smaller "computed default" number of cache shards in many cases, because benefits to larger usage tracking / eviction pools outweigh the small cost of more lock-free atomic contention. The improvement in CPU and I/O is dramatic in some limit-memory cases. * Even without the sharding change, the eviction algorithm is likely more effective than LRU overall because it's more stateful, even though the "hot path" state tracking for it is essentially free with ref counting. It is like a generalized CLOCK with aging (see code comments). I don't have performance numbers showing a specific improvement, but in theory, for a Poisson access pattern to each block, keeping some state allows better estimation of time to next access (Poisson interval) than strict LRU. The bounded randomness in CLOCK can also reduce "cliff" effect for repeated range scans approaching and exceeding cache size. ## Hot path algorithm comparison Rough descriptions, focusing on number and kind of atomic operations: * Old `Lookup()` (2-5 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment internal ref count at slot If possible hit: Check flags atomic (and non-atomic fields) If cache hit: Three distinct updates to 'flags' atomic Increment refs for internal-to-external Return Decrement internal ref count while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * New `Lookup()` (1-2 atomic updates per probe): ``` Loop: Increment acquire counter in meta word (optimistic) If visible entry (already read meta word): If match (read non-atomic fields): Return Else: Decrement acquire counter in meta word Else if invisible entry (rare, already read meta word): Decrement acquire counter in meta word while atomic read 'displacements' > 0 ``` * Old `Release()` (1 atomic update, conditional on atomic read, rarely more): ``` Read atomic ref count If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return Else: Decrement ref count ``` * New `Release()` (1 unconditional atomic update, rarely more): ``` Increment release counter in meta word If last reference and invisible (rare): Use CAS etc. to remove Return ``` ## Performance test setup Build DB with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` Test with ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=${CACHE_MB}000000 -duration 60 -threads=$THREADS -statistics ``` Numbers on a single socket Skylake Xeon system with 48 hardware threads, DEBUG_LEVEL=0 PORTABLE=0. Very similar story on a dual socket system with 80 hardware threads. Using (every 2nd) Fibonacci MB cache sizes to sample the territory between powers of two.

Mutex-based implementation quickly becomes contention-limited. New clock cache shows essentially perfect scaling up to number of physical cores (24), and then each hyperthreaded core adding about 1/4 the throughput of an additional physical core (see 48 thread case). Block cache miss rates (omitted above) are negligible across the board. With partitioned instead of full filters, the maximum speed-up vs. base is more like 2.5x rather than 5x.

This new clock cache only uses two shards for this configuration, and that helps to ensure that entries are part of a sufficiently big pool that their eviction order resembles the single-shard order.

Towards a production-quality ClockCache (#10418) Summary: In this PR we bring ClockCache closer to production quality. We implement the following changes: 1. Fixed a few bugs in ClockCache. 2. ClockCache now fully supports ``strict_capacity_limit == false``: When an insertion over capacity is commanded, we allocate a handle separately from the hash table. 3. ClockCache now runs on almost every test in cache_test. The only exceptions are a test where either the LRU policy is required, and a test that dynamically increases the table capacity. 4. ClockCache now supports dynamically decreasing capacity via SetCapacity. (This is easy: we shrink the capacity upper bound and run the clock algorithm.) 5. Old FastLRUCache tests in lru_cache_test.cc are now also used on ClockCache. As a byproduct of 1. and 2. we are able to turn on ClockCache in the stress tests.

Cap eviction effort (CPU under stress) in HyperClockCache (#12141) Summary: HyperClockCache is intended to mitigate performance problems under stress conditions (as well as optimizing average-case parallel performance). In LRUCache, the biggest such problem is lock contention when one or a small number of cache entries becomes particularly hot. Regardless of cache sharding, accesses to any particular cache entry are linearized against a single mutex, which is held while each access updates the LRU list. All HCC variants are fully lock/wait-free for accessing blocks already in the cache, which fully mitigates this contention problem. However, HCC (and CLOCK in general) can exhibit extremely degraded performance under a different stress condition: when no (or almost no) entries in a cache shard are evictable (they are pinned). Unlike LRU which can find any evictable entries immediately (at the cost of more coordination / synchronization on each access), CLOCK has to search for evictable entries. Under the right conditions (almost exclusively MB-scale caches not GB-scale), the CPU cost of each cache miss could fall off a cliff and bog down the whole system. To effectively mitigate this problem (IMHO), I'm introducing a new default behavior and tuning parameter for HCC, `eviction_effort_cap`. See the comments on the new config parameter in the public API.

Major Cache refactoring, CPU efficiency improvement (#10975) Summary: This is several refactorings bundled into one to avoid having to incrementally re-modify uses of Cache several times. Overall, there are breaking changes to Cache class, and it becomes more of low-level interface for implementing caches, especially block cache. New internal APIs make using Cache cleaner than before, and more insulated from block cache evolution. Hopefully, this is the last really big block cache refactoring, because of rather effectively decoupling the implementations from the uses. This change also removes the EXPERIMENTAL designation on the SecondaryCache support in Cache. It seems reasonably mature at this point but still subject to change/evolution (as I warn in the API docs for Cache). The high-level motivation for this refactoring is to minimize code duplication / compounding complexity in adding SecondaryCache support to HyperClockCache (in a later PR). Other benefits listed below. * static_cast lines of code +29 -35 (net removed 6) * reinterpret_cast lines of code +6 -32 (net removed 26) ## cache.h and secondary_cache.h * Always use CacheItemHelper with entries instead of just a Deleter. There are several motivations / justifications: * Simpler for implementations to deal with just one Insert and one Lookup. * Simpler and more efficient implementation because we don't have to track which entries are using helpers and which are using deleters * Gets rid of hack to classify cache entries by their deleter. Instead, the CacheItemHelper includes a CacheEntryRole. This simplifies a lot of code (cache_entry_roles.h almost eliminated). Fixes https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/9428. * Makes it trivial to adjust SecondaryCache behavior based on kind of block (e.g. don't re-compress filter blocks). * It is arguably less convenient for many direct users of Cache, but direct users of Cache are now rare with introduction of typed_cache.h (below). * I considered and rejected an alternative approach in which we reduce customizability by assuming each secondary cache compatible value starts with a Slice referencing the uncompressed block contents (already true or mostly true), but we apparently intend to stack secondary caches. Saving an entry from a compressed secondary to a lower tier requires custom handling offered by SaveToCallback, etc. * Make CreateCallback part of the helper and introduce CreateContext to work with it (alternative to https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/10562). This cleans up the interface while still allowing context to be provided for loading/parsing values into primary cache. This model works for async lookup in BlockBasedTable reader (reader owns a CreateContext) under the assumption that it always waits on secondary cache operations to finish. (Otherwise, the CreateContext could be destroyed while async operation depending on it continues.) This likely contributes most to the observed performance improvement because it saves an std::function backed by a heap allocation. * Use char* for serialized data, e.g. in SaveToCallback, where void* was confusingly used. (We use `char*` for serialized byte data all over RocksDB, with many advantages over `void*`. `memcpy` etc. are legacy APIs that should not be mimicked.) * Add a type alias Cache::ObjectPtr = void*, so that we can better indicate the intent of the void* when it is to be the object associated with a Cache entry. Related: started (but did not complete) a refactoring to move away from "value" of a cache entry toward "object" or "obj". (It is confusing to call Cache a key-value store (like DB) when it is really storing arbitrary in-memory objects, not byte strings.) * Remove unnecessary key param from DeleterFn. This is good for efficiency in HyperClockCache, which does not directly store the cache key in memory. (Alternative to https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/10774) * Add allocator to Cache DeleterFn. This is a kind of future-proofing change in case we get more serious about using the Cache allocator for memory tracked by the Cache. Right now, only the uncompressed block contents are allocated using the allocator, and a pointer to that allocator is saved as part of the cached object so that the deleter can use it. (See CacheAllocationPtr.) If in the future we are able to "flatten out" our Cache objects some more, it would be good not to have to track the allocator as part of each object. * Removes legacy `ApplyToAllCacheEntries` and changes `ApplyToAllEntries` signature for Deleter->CacheItemHelper change. ## typed_cache.h Adds various "typed" interfaces to the Cache as internal APIs, so that most uses of Cache can use simple type safe code without casting and without explicit deleters, etc. Almost all of the non-test, non-glue code uses of Cache have been migrated. (Follow-up work: CompressedSecondaryCache deserves deeper attention to migrate.) This change expands RocksDB's internal usage of metaprogramming and SFINAE (https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/sfinae). The existing usages of Cache are divided up at a high level into these new interfaces. See updated existing uses of Cache for examples of how these are used. * PlaceholderCacheInterface - Used for making cache reservations, with entries that have a charge but no value. * BasicTypedCacheInterface<TValue> - Used for primary cache storage of objects of type TValue, which can be cleaned up with std::default_delete<TValue>. The role is provided by TValue::kCacheEntryRole or given in an optional template parameter. * FullTypedCacheInterface<TValue, TCreateContext> - Used for secondary cache compatible storage of objects of type TValue. In addition to BasicTypedCacheInterface constraints, we require TValue::ContentSlice() to return persistable data. This simplifies usage for the normal case of simple secondary cache compatibility (can give you a Slice to the data already in memory). In addition to TCreateContext performing the role of Cache::CreateContext, it is also expected to provide a factory function for creating TValue. * For each of these, there's a "Shared" version (e.g. FullTypedSharedCacheInterface) that holds a shared_ptr to the Cache, rather than assuming external ownership by holding only a raw `Cache*`. These interfaces introduce specific handle types for each interface instantiation, so that it's easy to see what kind of object is controlled by a handle. (Ultimately, this might not be worth the extra complexity, but it seems OK so far.) Note: I attempted to make the cache 'charge' automatically inferred from the cache object type, such as by expecting an ApproximateMemoryUsage() function, but this is not so clean because there are cases where we need to compute the charge ahead of time and don't want to re-compute it. ## block_cache.h This header is essentially the replacement for the old block_like_traits.h. It includes various things to support block cache access with typed_cache.h for block-based table. ## block_based_table_reader.cc Before this change, accessing the block cache here was an awkward mix of static polymorphism (template TBlocklike) and switch-case on a dynamic BlockType value. This change mostly unifies on static polymorphism, relying on minor hacks in block_cache.h to distinguish variants of Block. We still check BlockType in some places (especially for stats, which could be improved in follow-up work) but at least the BlockType is a static constant from the template parameter. (No more awkward partial redundancy between static and dynamic info.) This likely contributes to the overall performance improvement, but hasn't been tested in isolation. The other key source of simplification here is a more unified system of creating block cache objects: for directly populating from primary cache and for promotion from secondary cache. Both use BlockCreateContext, for context and for factory functions. ## block_based_table_builder.cc, cache_dump_load_impl.cc Before this change, warming caches was super ugly code. Both of these source files had switch statements to basically transition from the dynamic BlockType world to the static TBlocklike world.

Major Cache refactoring, CPU efficiency improvement (#10975) Summary: This is several refactorings bundled into one to avoid having to incrementally re-modify uses of Cache several times. Overall, there are breaking changes to Cache class, and it becomes more of low-level interface for implementing caches, especially block cache. New internal APIs make using Cache cleaner than before, and more insulated from block cache evolution. Hopefully, this is the last really big block cache refactoring, because of rather effectively decoupling the implementations from the uses. This change also removes the EXPERIMENTAL designation on the SecondaryCache support in Cache. It seems reasonably mature at this point but still subject to change/evolution (as I warn in the API docs for Cache). The high-level motivation for this refactoring is to minimize code duplication / compounding complexity in adding SecondaryCache support to HyperClockCache (in a later PR). Other benefits listed below. * static_cast lines of code +29 -35 (net removed 6) * reinterpret_cast lines of code +6 -32 (net removed 26) ## cache.h and secondary_cache.h * Always use CacheItemHelper with entries instead of just a Deleter. There are several motivations / justifications: * Simpler for implementations to deal with just one Insert and one Lookup. * Simpler and more efficient implementation because we don't have to track which entries are using helpers and which are using deleters * Gets rid of hack to classify cache entries by their deleter. Instead, the CacheItemHelper includes a CacheEntryRole. This simplifies a lot of code (cache_entry_roles.h almost eliminated). Fixes https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/9428. * Makes it trivial to adjust SecondaryCache behavior based on kind of block (e.g. don't re-compress filter blocks). * It is arguably less convenient for many direct users of Cache, but direct users of Cache are now rare with introduction of typed_cache.h (below). * I considered and rejected an alternative approach in which we reduce customizability by assuming each secondary cache compatible value starts with a Slice referencing the uncompressed block contents (already true or mostly true), but we apparently intend to stack secondary caches. Saving an entry from a compressed secondary to a lower tier requires custom handling offered by SaveToCallback, etc. * Make CreateCallback part of the helper and introduce CreateContext to work with it (alternative to https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/10562). This cleans up the interface while still allowing context to be provided for loading/parsing values into primary cache. This model works for async lookup in BlockBasedTable reader (reader owns a CreateContext) under the assumption that it always waits on secondary cache operations to finish. (Otherwise, the CreateContext could be destroyed while async operation depending on it continues.) This likely contributes most to the observed performance improvement because it saves an std::function backed by a heap allocation. * Use char* for serialized data, e.g. in SaveToCallback, where void* was confusingly used. (We use `char*` for serialized byte data all over RocksDB, with many advantages over `void*`. `memcpy` etc. are legacy APIs that should not be mimicked.) * Add a type alias Cache::ObjectPtr = void*, so that we can better indicate the intent of the void* when it is to be the object associated with a Cache entry. Related: started (but did not complete) a refactoring to move away from "value" of a cache entry toward "object" or "obj". (It is confusing to call Cache a key-value store (like DB) when it is really storing arbitrary in-memory objects, not byte strings.) * Remove unnecessary key param from DeleterFn. This is good for efficiency in HyperClockCache, which does not directly store the cache key in memory. (Alternative to https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/10774) * Add allocator to Cache DeleterFn. This is a kind of future-proofing change in case we get more serious about using the Cache allocator for memory tracked by the Cache. Right now, only the uncompressed block contents are allocated using the allocator, and a pointer to that allocator is saved as part of the cached object so that the deleter can use it. (See CacheAllocationPtr.) If in the future we are able to "flatten out" our Cache objects some more, it would be good not to have to track the allocator as part of each object. * Removes legacy `ApplyToAllCacheEntries` and changes `ApplyToAllEntries` signature for Deleter->CacheItemHelper change. ## typed_cache.h Adds various "typed" interfaces to the Cache as internal APIs, so that most uses of Cache can use simple type safe code without casting and without explicit deleters, etc. Almost all of the non-test, non-glue code uses of Cache have been migrated. (Follow-up work: CompressedSecondaryCache deserves deeper attention to migrate.) This change expands RocksDB's internal usage of metaprogramming and SFINAE (https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/sfinae). The existing usages of Cache are divided up at a high level into these new interfaces. See updated existing uses of Cache for examples of how these are used. * PlaceholderCacheInterface - Used for making cache reservations, with entries that have a charge but no value. * BasicTypedCacheInterface<TValue> - Used for primary cache storage of objects of type TValue, which can be cleaned up with std::default_delete<TValue>. The role is provided by TValue::kCacheEntryRole or given in an optional template parameter. * FullTypedCacheInterface<TValue, TCreateContext> - Used for secondary cache compatible storage of objects of type TValue. In addition to BasicTypedCacheInterface constraints, we require TValue::ContentSlice() to return persistable data. This simplifies usage for the normal case of simple secondary cache compatibility (can give you a Slice to the data already in memory). In addition to TCreateContext performing the role of Cache::CreateContext, it is also expected to provide a factory function for creating TValue. * For each of these, there's a "Shared" version (e.g. FullTypedSharedCacheInterface) that holds a shared_ptr to the Cache, rather than assuming external ownership by holding only a raw `Cache*`. These interfaces introduce specific handle types for each interface instantiation, so that it's easy to see what kind of object is controlled by a handle. (Ultimately, this might not be worth the extra complexity, but it seems OK so far.) Note: I attempted to make the cache 'charge' automatically inferred from the cache object type, such as by expecting an ApproximateMemoryUsage() function, but this is not so clean because there are cases where we need to compute the charge ahead of time and don't want to re-compute it. ## block_cache.h This header is essentially the replacement for the old block_like_traits.h. It includes various things to support block cache access with typed_cache.h for block-based table. ## block_based_table_reader.cc Before this change, accessing the block cache here was an awkward mix of static polymorphism (template TBlocklike) and switch-case on a dynamic BlockType value. This change mostly unifies on static polymorphism, relying on minor hacks in block_cache.h to distinguish variants of Block. We still check BlockType in some places (especially for stats, which could be improved in follow-up work) but at least the BlockType is a static constant from the template parameter. (No more awkward partial redundancy between static and dynamic info.) This likely contributes to the overall performance improvement, but hasn't been tested in isolation. The other key source of simplification here is a more unified system of creating block cache objects: for directly populating from primary cache and for promotion from secondary cache. Both use BlockCreateContext, for context and for factory functions. ## block_based_table_builder.cc, cache_dump_load_impl.cc Before this change, warming caches was super ugly code. Both of these source files had switch statements to basically transition from the dynamic BlockType world to the static TBlocklike world. None of that mess is needed anymore as there's a new, untyped WarmInCache function that handles all the details just as promotion from SecondaryCache would. (Fixes `TODO akanksha: Dedup below code` in block_based_table_builder.cc.) ## Everything else Mostly just updating Cache users to use new typed APIs when reasonably possible, or changed Cache APIs when not.

Automatic table sizing for HyperClockCache (AutoHCC) (#11738) Summary: This change add an experimental next-generation HyperClockCache (HCC) with automatic sizing of the underlying hash table. Both the existing version (stable) and the new version (experimental for now) of HCC are available depending on whether an estimated average entry charge is provided in HyperClockCacheOptions. Internally, we call the two implementations AutoHyperClockCache (new) and FixedHyperClockCache (existing). The performance characteristics and much of the underlying logic are similar enough that AutoHCC is likely to make FixedHCC obsolete, and so it's best considered an evolution of the same technology or solution rather than an alternative. More specifically, both implementations share essentially the same logic for managing the state of individual entries in the cache, including metadata for reference counting and counting clocks for eviction. This metadata, which I like to call the "low-level HCC protocol," includes a read-write lock on entries, but relaxed consistency requirements on the cache (e.g. allowing rare duplication) means high-level cache operations never wait for these low-level per-entry locks. FixedHCC is fully wait-free. AutoHCC is different in how entries are indexed into an efficient hash table. AutoHCC is "essentially wait-free" as there is no pattern of typical high-level operations on a large cache that can lead to one thread waiting on another to complete some work, though it can happen in some unusual/unlucky cases, or atypical uses such as erasing specific cache keys. Table growth and entry reclamation is more complex in AutoHCC compared to FixedHCC, so uses some localized locking to manage that. AutoHCC uses linear hashing to grow the table as needed, with low latency and to a precise size. AutoHCC depends on anonymous mmap support from the OS (currently verified working on Linux, MacOS, and Windows) to allow the array underlying a hash table to grow in place without wasting resident memory on space reserved but unused. AutoHCC uses a form of chaining while FixedHCC uses open addressing and double hashing. More specifics: * In developing this PR, a rare availability bug (minor) was noticed in the existing HCC implementation of Release()+erase_if_last_ref, which is now inherited into AutoHCC. Fixing this without a performance regression will not be simple, so is left for follow-up work. * Some existing unit tests required adjustment of operational parameters or conditions to work with the new behaviors of AutoHCC. A number of bugs were found and fixed in the validation process, including getting unit tests in good working order. * Added an option to cache_bench, `-degenerate_hash_bits` for correctness stress testing described below. For this, the tool uses the reverse-engineered hash function for HCC to generate keys in which the specified number of hash bits, in critical positions, have a fixed value. Essentially each degenerate hash bit will half the number of chain heads utilized and double the average chain length. Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/11738 Test Plan: unit tests updated, and already added to db crash test. Also ## Correctness The code includes generous assertions to check for unexpected states, especially at destruction time, so should be able to detect critical concurrency bugs. Less serious "availability bugs" in which cache data is hidden or cleanly lost are more difficult to detect, but also less scary for data correctness (as long as performance is good and the design is sound). In average operation, the structure is extremely low stress and low contention (see next section) so stressing the corner case logic requires artificially stressing the operating conditions. First, we keep the structure small to increase the number of threads hitting the same chain or entry, and just one cache shard. Second, we artificially degrade the hashing so that chains are much longer than typical, using the new `-degenerate_hash_bits` option to cache_bench. Third, we re-create the structure from scratch frequently in order to exercise the Grow logic repeatedly and to get the benefit of the consistency checks in the structure's destructor in debug builds. For cache_bench this also means disabling the single-threaded "populate cache" step (normally used for steady state performance testing). And of course use many more threads than cores to have many preemptions. An effective test for working out bugs was this (using debug build of course): ``` while ./cache_bench -cache_type=auto_hyper_clock_cache -histograms=0 -cache_size=8000000 -threads=100 -populate_cache=0 -ops_per_thread=10000 -degenerate_hash_bits=6 -num_shard_bits=0; do :; done ``` Or even smaller cases. This setup has around 27 utilized chains, with around 35 entries each, and yield-waits more than 1 million times per second (very high contention; see next section). I have let this run for hours searching for any lingering issues. I've also run cache_bench under ASAN, UBSAN, and TSAN. ## Essentially wait free There is a counter for number of yield() calls when one thread is waiting on another. When we pre-populate the structure in a single thread, ``` ./cache_bench -cache_type=auto_hyper_clock_cache -histograms=0 -populate_cache=1 -ops_per_thread=200000 2>&1 | grep Yield ``` We see something on the order of 1 yield call per second across 16 threads, even when we load the system other other jobs (parallel compilation). With -populate_cache=0, there are more yield opportunities with parallel table growth. On an otherwise unloaded system, we still see very small (single digit) yield counts, with a chance of getting into the thousands, and getting into 10s of thousands per second during table growth phase if the system is loaded with other jobs. However, I am not worried about this if performance is still good (see next section). ## Overall performance Although cache_bench initially suggested performance very close to FixedHCC, there was a very noticeable performance hit under a db_bench setup like used in validating https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/10626. Much of the difference has been reduced by optimizing Lookup with a "naive" pass that will almost always find entries quickly, and only falling back to the careful Lookup algorithm when not found in the first pass. Setups (chosen to be sensitive to block cache performance), and compiled with USE_CLANG=1 JEMALLOC=1 PORTABLE=0 DEBUG_LEVEL=0: ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm base/db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=30000000 -disable_wal=1 -bloom_bits=16 ``` ### No regression on FixedHCC Running before & after builds at the same time on a 48 core machine. ``` TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm /usr/bin/time ./db_bench -benchmarks=readrandom[-X10],block_cache_entry_stats,cache_report_problems -readonly -num=30000000 -bloom_bits=16 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -cache_size=610000000 -duration 20 -threads=24 -cache_type=fixed_hyper_clock_cache -seed=1234 ``` Before: readrandom [AVG 10 runs] : 847234 (± 8150) ops/sec; 59.2 (± 0.6) MB/sec 703MB max RSS After: readrandom [AVG 10 runs] : 851021 (± 7929) ops/sec; 59.5 (± 0.6) MB/sec 706MB max RSS Probably no material difference. ### Single-threaded performance Using `[-X2]` and `-threads=1` and `-duration=30`, running all three at the same time: lru_cache: 55100 ops/sec, then 55862 ops/sec (627MB max RSS) fixed_hyper_clock_cache: 60496 ops/sec, then 61231 ops/sec (626MB max RSS) auto_hyper_clock_cache: 47560 ops/sec, then 56081 ops/sec (626MB max RSS) So AutoHCC has more ramp-up cost in the first pass as the cache grows to the appropriate size. (In single-threaded operation, the parallelizability and per-op low latency of table growth is overall slower.) However, once up to size, its performance is comparable to LRUCache. FixedHCC's lean operations still win overall when a good estimate is available. If we look at HCC table stats, we can see that this configuration is not favorable to AutoHCC (and I have verified that other memory sizes do not yield substantially different results, until shards are under-sized for the full filters): FixedHCC: Slot occupancy stats: Overall 47% (124991/262144), Min/Max/Window = 28%/64%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 17/22 AutoHCC: Slot occupancy stats: Overall 59% (125781/209682), Min/Max/Window = 43%/82%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 76/16 Head occupancy stats: Overall 43% (92259/209682), Min/Max/Window = 24%/74%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 19/26 Entries at home count: 53350 FixedHCC configuration is relatively good for speed, and not ideal for space utilization. As is typical, AutoHCC has tighter control on metadata usage (209682 x 64 bytes rather than 262144 x 64 bytes), and the higher load factor is slightly worse for speed. LRUCache also has more metadata usage, at 199680 x 96 bytes of tracked metadata (plus roughly another 10% of that untracked in the head pointers), and that metadata is subject to fragmentation. ### Parallel performance, high hit rate Now using `[-X10]` and `-threads=10`, all three at the same time lru_cache: [AVG 10 runs] : 263629 (± 1425) ops/sec; 18.4 (± 0.1) MB/sec 655MB max RSS, 97.1% cache hit rate fixed_hyper_clock_cache: [AVG 10 runs] : 479590 (± 8114) ops/sec; 33.5 (± 0.6) MB/sec 651MB max RSS, 97.1% cache hit rate auto_hyper_clock_cache: [AVG 10 runs] : 418687 (± 5915) ops/sec; 29.3 (± 0.4) MB/sec 657MB max RSS, 97.1% cache hit rate Even with just 10-way parallelism for each cache (though 30+/48 cores busy overall), LRUCache is already showing performance degradation, while AutoHCC is in the neighborhood of FixedHCC. And that brings us to the question of how AutoHCC holds up under extreme parallelism, so now independent runs with `-threads=100` (overloading 48 cores). lru_cache: 438613 ops/sec, 827MB max RSS fixed_hyper_clock_cache: 1651310 ops/sec, 812MB max RSS auto_hyper_clock_cache: 1505875 ops/sec, 821MB max RSS (Yield count: 1089 over 30s) Clearly, AutoHCC holds up extremely well under extreme parallelism, even closing some of the modest performance gap with FixedHCC. ### Parallel performance, low hit rate To get down to roughly 50% cache hit rate, we use `-cache_index_and_filter_blocks=0 -cache_size=1650000000` with `-threads=10`. Here the extra cost of running counting clock eviction, especially on the chains of AutoHCC, are evident, especially with the lower contention of cache_index_and_filter_blocks=0: lru_cache: 725231 ops/sec, 1770MB max RSS, 51.3% hit rate fixed_hyper_clock_cache: 638620 ops/sec, 1765MB max RSS, 50.2% hit rate auto_hyper_clock_cache: 541018 ops/sec, 1777MB max RSS, 50.8% hit rate Reviewed By: jowlyzhang Differential Revision: D48784755 Pulled By: pdillinger fbshipit-source-id: e79813dc087474ac427637dd282a14fa3011a6e4

Placeholder for AutoHyperClockCache, more (#11692) Summary: * The plan is for AutoHyperClockCache to be selected when HyperClockCacheOptions::estimated_entry_charge == 0, and in that case to use a new configuration option min_avg_entry_charge for determining an extreme case maximum size for the hash table. For the placeholder, a hack is in place in HyperClockCacheOptions::MakeSharedCache() to make the unit tests happy despite the new options not really making sense with the current implementation. * Mostly updating and refactoring tests to test both the current HCC (internal name FixedHyperClockCache) and a placeholder for the new version (internal name AutoHyperClockCache). * Simplify some existing tests not to depend directly on cache type. * Type-parameterize the shard-level unit tests, which unfortunately requires more syntax like `this->` in places for disambiguation. * Added means of choosing auto_hyper_clock_cache to cache_bench, db_bench, and db_stress, including add to crash test. * Add another templated class BaseHyperClockCache to reduce future copy-paste * Added ReportProblems support to cache_bench * Added a DEBUG-level diagnostic to ReportProblems for the variance in load factor throughout the table, which will become more of a concern with linear hashing to be used in the Auto implementation. Example with current Fixed HCC: ``` 2023/08/10-13:41:41.602450 6ac36 [DEBUG] [che/clock_cache.cc:1507] Slot occupancy stats: Overall 49% (129008/262144), Min/Max/Window = 39%/60%/500, MaxRun{Pos/Neg} = 18/17 ``` In other words, with overall occupancy of 49%, the lowest across any 500 contiguous cells is 39% and highest 60%. Longest run of occupied is 18 and longest run of unoccupied is 17. This seems consistent with random samples from a uniform distribution.

Refactor (Hyper)ClockCache code (#10887) Summary: For clean-up and in preparation for some other anticipated changes, including * A new dynamically-scaling variant of HyperClockCache * SecondaryCache support for HyperClockCache This change does some refactoring for current and future code sharing and reusability. (Including follow-up on https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/10843) ## clock_cache.h * TBD whether new variant will be a HyperClockCache or use some other name, so namespace is just clock_cache for the family of structures. * A number of helper functions introduced and used. * Pre-emptively split ClockHandle (shared among lock-free clock cache variants) and HandleImpl (specific to a kind of Table), and introduce template to plug new Table implementation into ClockCacheShard. ## clock_cache.cc * Mostly using helper functions. Some things like `Rollback()` and `FreeDataMarkEmpty()` were not combined because `Rollback()` is Table-specific while `FreeDataMarkEmpty()` can be used with different table implementations. * Performance testing indicated that despite more opportunities for parallelism, making a local copy of handle data for processing after marking an entry empty was slower than doing that processing before marking the entry empty (but after marking it "under construction"), thus avoiding a few words of copying data. At least for now, this answers the "TODO? Delay freeing?" questions (no). Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/10887 Test Plan: fixed a unit testing gap; other minor test updates for refactoring No functionality change ## Performance Same setup as https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/10801: Before: `readrandom [AVG 81 runs] : 627992 (± 5124) ops/sec` After: `readrandom [AVG 81 runs] : 637512 (± 4866) ops/sec` I've been getting some inconsistent results on restarts like the system is not being fair to the two processes, so I'm not sure there's such a real difference.
