Siying Dong 67d7623794 Expose the stalling information through DB::GetProperty()
Summary:
Add two DB properties: rocksdb.actual_delayed_write_rate and rocksdb.is_write_stooped, for people to know whether current writes are being throttled.

Islam AbdelRahman d52f334cbd Break stalls when no bg work is happening
Summary:
Current stall will keep sleeping even if there is no Flush/Compactions to wait for, I changed the logic to break the stall if we are not flushing or compacting

db_bench command used
```
# fillrandom
# memtable size = 10MB
# value size = 1 MB
# num = 1000
# use /dev/shm
./db_bench --benchmarks="fillrandom,stats" --value_size=1048576 --write_buffer_size=10485760 --num=1000 --delayed_write_rate=XXXXX  --db="/dev/shm/new_stall" | grep "Cumulative stall"
```

```

Xiaofei Du 7106a994fe Use monotonic time points in write_controller.cc and rate_limiter.cc
Summary:
NowMicros() provides non-monotonic time. When wall clock is
synchronized or changed, the non-monotonicity time points will affect write rate
controllers. This patch changes write_controller.cc and rate_limiter.cc to use
monotonic time points.

Siying Dong cd7c4143d7 Improve Write Stalling System
Summary:
Current write stalling system has the problem of lacking of positive feedback if the restricted rate is already too low. Users sometimes stack in very low slowdown value. With the diff, we add a positive feedback (increasing the slowdown value) if we recover from slowdown state back to normal. To avoid the positive feedback to keep the slowdown value to be to high, we add issue a negative feedback every time we are close to the stop condition. Experiments show it is easier to reach a relative balance than before.

Also increase level0_stop_writes_trigger default from 24 to 32. Since level0_slowdown_writes_trigger default is 20, stop trigger 24 only gives four files as the buffer time to slowdown writes. In order to avoid stop in four files while 20 files have been accumulated, the slowdown value must be very low, which is amost the same as stop. It also doesn't give enough time for the slowdown value to converge. Increase it to 32 will smooth out the system.

Venkatesh Radhakrishnan 3b2a1ddd2e Add options.base_background_compactions as a number of compaction threads for low compaction debt
Summary:
If options.base_background_compactions is given, we try to schedule number of compactions not existing this number, only when L0 files increase to certain number, or pending compaction bytes more than certain threshold, we schedule compactions based on options.max_background_compactions.

The watermarks are calculated based on slowdown thresholds.

Test Plan:
Add new test cases in column_family_test.
Adding more unit tests.

sdong b9f77ba12b When slowdown is triggered, reduce the write rate
Summary: It's usually hard for users to set a value of options.delayed_write_rate. With this diff, after slowdown condition triggers, we greedily reduce write rate if estimated pending compaction bytes increase. If estimated compaction pending bytes drop, we increase the write rate.

Test Plan:
Add a unit test
Test with db_bench setting:
TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm/ ./db_bench --benchmarks=fillrandom -num=10000000 --soft_pending_compaction_bytes_limit=1000000000 --hard_pending_compaction_bytes_limit=3000000000 --delayed_write_rate=100000000

and make sure without the commit, write stop will happen, but with the commit, it will not happen.

sdong 7842920be5 Slow down writes by bytes written
Summary:
We slow down data into the database to the rate of options.delayed_write_rate (a new option) with this patch.

The thread synchronization approach I take is to still synchronize write controller by DB mutex and GetDelay() is inside DB mutex. Try to minimize the frequency of getting time in GetDelay(). I verified it through db_bench and it seems to work

hard_rate_limit is deprecated.

options.delayed_write_rate is still not dynamically changeable. Need to work on it as a follow-up.

Test Plan: Add new unit tests in db_test

Igor Canadi a2bb7c3c33 Push- instead of pull-model for managing Write stalls
Summary:
Introducing WriteController, which is a source of truth about per-DB write delays. Let's define an DB epoch as a period where there are no flushes and compactions (i.e. new epoch is started when flush or compaction finishes). Each epoch can either:
* proceed with all writes without delay
* delay all writes by fixed time
* stop all writes

The three modes are recomputed at each epoch change (flush, compaction), rather than on every write (which is currently the case).

When we have a lot of column families, our current pull behavior adds a big overhead, since we need to loop over every column family for every write. With new push model, overhead on Write code-path is minimal.

This is just the start. Next step is to also take care of stalls introduced by slow memtable flushes. The final goal is to eliminate function MakeRoomForWrite(), which currently needs to be called for every column family by every write.

Test Plan: make check for now. I'll add some unit tests later. Also, perf test.
