Summary:
Previously setting `write_buffer_size` with `SetOptions` would only apply to new memtables. An internal user wanted it to take effect immediately, instead of at an arbitrary future point, to prevent OOM.
This PR makes the memtable's size mutable, and makes `SetOptions()` mutate it. There is one case when we preserve the old behavior, which is when memtable prefix bloom filter is enabled and the user is increasing the memtable's capacity. That's because the prefix bloom filter's size is fixed and wouldn't work as well on a larger memtable.

Summary:
GetCommitTimeWriteBatch is currently used to store some state as part of commit in 2PC. In MyRocks it is specifically used to store some data that would be needed only during recovery. So it is not need to be stored in memtable right after each commit.
This patch enables an optimization to write the GetCommitTimeWriteBatch only to the WAL. The batch will be written to memtable during recovery when the WAL is replayed. To cover the case when WAL is deleted after memtable flush, the batch is also buffered and written to memtable right before each memtable flush.

Summary:
Add kTypeBlobIndex value type, which will be used by blob db only, to insert a (key, blob_offset) KV pair. The purpose is to
1. Make it possible to open existing rocksdb instance as blob db. Existing value will be of kTypeIndex type, while value inserted by blob db will be of kTypeBlobIndex.
2. Make rocksdb able to detect if the db contains value written by blob db, if so return error.
3. Make it possible to have blob db optionally store value in SST file (with kTypeValue type) or as a blob value (with kTypeBlobIndex type).
The root db (DBImpl) basically pretended kTypeBlobIndex are normal value on write. On Get if is_blob is provided, return whether the value read is of kTypeBlobIndex type, or return Status::NotSupported() status if is_blob is not provided. On scan allow_blob flag is pass and if the flag is true, return wether the value is of kTypeBlobIndex type via iter->IsBlob().
Changes on blob db side will be in a separate patch.

By default the seq number in DB is increased once per written key. WritePrepared txns requires the seq to be increased once per the entire batch so that the seq would be used as the prepare timestamp by which the transaction is identified. Also we need to increase seq for the commit marker since it would give a unique id to the commit timestamp of transactions.
Two unit tests are added to verify our understanding of how the seq should be increased. The recovery path requires much more work and is left to another patch.

Summary:
PipelineWriteImpl is an alternative approach to WriteImpl. In WriteImpl, only one thread is allow to write at the same time. This thread will do both WAL and memtable writes for all write threads in the write group. Pending writers wait in queue until the current writer finishes. In the pipeline write approach, two queue is maintained: one WAL writer queue and one memtable writer queue. All writers (regardless of whether they need to write WAL) will still need to first join the WAL writer queue, and after the house keeping work and WAL writing, they will need to join memtable writer queue if needed. The benefit of this approach is that
1. Writers without memtable writes (e.g. the prepare phase of two phase commit) can exit write thread once WAL write is finish. They don't need to wait for memtable writes in case of group commit.
2. Pending writers only need to wait for previous WAL writer finish to be able to join the write thread, instead of wait also for previous memtable writes.

Summary:
Stale log files can be deleted out of order. This can happen for various reasons. One of the reason is that no data is ever inserted to a column family and we have an optimization to update its log number, but not all the old log files are cleaned up (the case shown in the unit tests added). It can also happen when we simply delete multiple log files out of order.
This causes data corruption because we simply increase seqID after processing the next row and we may end up with writing data with smaller seqID than what is already flushed to memtables.
In DB recovery, for the oldest files we are replaying, if there it contains no data for any column family, we ignore the sequence IDs in the file.

6. data is lost
This is due to the transaction data still only residing in the WAL but because the logs were flushed on the first recovery the data is ignored on the second recovery. We must scan all logs found on recovery and only ignore redundant data at the time of replay. It is not possible to know which logs still contain relevant data at time of recovery. We cannot simply ignore a log because all of the non-2pc data it contains has already been written to L0.
The changes made to MemTableInserter are to ensure that prepared sections are still recovered even if all of the non-2pc data in that log has already been flushed to L0.

Summary:
Consider the following WAL with 4 batch entries prefixed with their sequence at time of memtable insert.
[1: BEGIN_PREPARE, PUT, PUT, PUT, PUT, END_PREPARE(a)]
[1: BEGIN_PREPARE, PUT, PUT, PUT, PUT, END_PREPARE(b)]
[4: COMMIT(a)]
[7: COMMIT(b)]
The first two batches do not consume any sequence numbers so are both prefixed with seq=1.
For 2pc commit, memtable insertion takes place before COMMIT batch is written to WAL.
We can see that sequence number consumption takes place between WAL entries giving us the seemingly sparse sequence prefix for WAL entries.
This is a valid WAL.
Because with 2PC markers one WriteBatch points to another batch containing its inserts a writebatch can consume more or less sequence numbers than the number of sequence consuming entries that it contains.
We can see that, given the entries in the WAL, 6 sequence ids were consumed. Yet on recovery the maximum sequence consumed would be 7 + 3 (the number of sequence numbers consumed by COMMIT(b))
So, now upon recovery we must track the actual consumption of sequence numbers.
In the provided scenario there will be no sequence gaps, but it is possible to produce a sequence gap. This should not be a problem though. correct?

- log_ref is a supplied log_number which all memtables inserted into will reference after the batch insert takes place. This number will reside in 'FindMinPrepLogReferencedByMemTable()' until all Memtables insertinto have flushed.

Summary:
copy from task 8196669:
1) Optimistic transactions do not support batching writes from different threads.
2) Pessimistic transactions do not support batching writes if an expiration time is set.
In these 2 cases, we currently do not do any write batching in DBImpl::WriteImpl() because there is a WriteCallback that could decide at the last minute to abort the write. But we could support batching write operations with callbacks if we make sure to process the callbacks correctly.
To do this, we would first need to modify write_thread.cc to stop preventing writes with callbacks from being batched together. Then we would need to change DBImpl::WriteImpl() to call all WriteCallback's in a batch, only write the batches that succeed, and correctly set the state of each batch's WriteThread::Writer.
Test Plan: Added test WriteWithCallbackTest to write_callback_test.cc which creates multiple client threads and verifies that writes are batched and executed properly.

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

Xeon E5-2660 @ 2.2Ghz with lots of memory and an SSD hard drive. With 1
thread I get ~440Kops/sec. Peak performance for 1 socket (numactl
-N1) is slightly more than 1Mops/sec, at 16 threads. Peak performance
across both sockets happens at 30 threads, and is ~900Kops/sec, although
with fewer threads there is less performance loss when the system has
background work.

Summary:
Parallel writes will only be possible for certain combinations of
flags and WriteBatch contents. Traversing the WriteBatch at write time
to check these conditions would be expensive, but it is very cheap to
keep track of when building WriteBatch-es. When loading WriteBatch-es
during recovery, a deferred computation state is used so that the flags
never need to be computed.

Summary:
This patch fixes#7460559. It introduces SingleDelete as a new database
operation. This operation can be used to delete keys that were never
overwritten (no put following another put of the same key). If an overwritten
key is single deleted the behavior is undefined. Single deletion of a
non-existent key has no effect but multiple consecutive single deletions are
not allowed (see limitations).
In contrast to the conventional Delete() operation, the deletion entry is
removed along with the value when the two are lined up in a compaction. Note:
The semantics are similar to @igor's prototype that allowed to have this
behavior on the granularity of a column family (
https://reviews.facebook.net/D42093 ). This new patch, however, is more
aggressive when it comes to removing tombstones: It removes the SingleDelete
together with the value whenever there is no snapshot between them while the
older patch only did this when the sequence number of the deletion was older
than the earliest snapshot.
Most of the complex additions are in the Compaction Iterator, all other changes
should be relatively straightforward. The patch also includes basic support for
single deletions in db_stress and db_bench.
Limitations:
- Not compatible with cuckoo hash tables
- Single deletions cannot be used in combination with merges and normal
deletions on the same key (other keys are not affected by this)
- Consecutive single deletions are currently not allowed (and older version of
this patch supported this so it could be resurrected if needed)

Summary:
This patch changes concurrency guarantees around ColumnFamilySet::column_families_ and ColumnFamilySet::column_families_data_.
Before:
* When mutating: lock DB mutex and spin lock
* When reading: lock DB mutex OR spin lock
After:
* When mutating: lock DB mutex and be in write thread
* When reading: lock DB mutex or be in write thread
That way, we eliminate the spin lock that protects these hash maps and simplify concurrency. That means we don't need to lock the spin lock during writing, since writing is mutually exclusive with column family create/drop (the only operations that mutate those hash maps).
With these new restrictions, I also needed to move column family create to the write thread (column family drop was already in the write thread).
Even though we don't need to lock the spin lock during write, impact on performance should be minimal -- the spin lock is almost never busy, so locking it is almost free.
This addresses task t5116919.

This diff fixes two bugs:
* Increase sequence number even if WriteBatch fails. This is important because WriteBatches in WAL logs have implictly increasing sequence number, even if one update in a write batch fails. This caused some writes to get lost in my CF stress testing
* Tolerate 'invalid column family' errors on recovery. When a column family is dropped, processing WAL logs can have some WriteBatches that still refer to the dropped column family. In recovery environment, we want to ignore those errors. In client's Write() code path, however, we want to return the failure to the client if he's trying to add data to invalid column family.

In that case, we need to gracefully return failure status from DB::Write(). To do that, I added a return Status to WriteBatch functions PutCF, DeleteCF and MergeCF.

* Added a new call CloseColumnFamily(). Client has to close all column families that he has opened before deleting the DB
* As soon as column family is closed, any calls to DB using that column family handle will fail (also any outstanding calls)

* Ref-counting ColumnFamilyData

It might happen that the entire value might have be copied to the new location if the new size varint is smaller than the existing size varint.

<This diff is for Column Family branch>
Sharing some of the work I've done so far. This diff compiles and passes the tests.
The biggest change is in options.h - I broke down Options into two parts - DBOptions and ColumnFamilyOptions. DBOptions is DB-specific (env, create_if_missing, block_cache, etc.) and ColumnFamilyOptions is column family-specific (all compaction options, compresion options, etc.). Note that this does not break backwards compatibility at all.
Further, I created DBWithColumnFamily which inherits DB interface and adds new functions with column family support. Clients can transparently switch to DBWithColumnFamily and it will not break their backwards compatibility.
There are few methods worth checking out: ListColumnFamilies(), MultiNewIterator(), MultiGet() and GetSnapshot(). [GetSnapshot() returns the snapshot across all column families for now - I think that's what we agreed on]
Finally, I made small changes to WriteBatch so we are able to atomically insert data across column families.

2. Latest value type is a 'put' ie kTypeValue
3. New value size is less than existing value, to avoid reallocating memory
