Summary: This occasional filesystem read in the write path has caused user pain. It doesn't seem very useful considering it only limits one component's merge chain length, and only helps merge uncached (i.e., infrequently read) values. This PR proposes allowing `max_successive_merges` to be exceeded when the value cannot be read from in-memory components. I included a rollback flag (`strict_max_successive_merges`) just in case. Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/12365 Test Plan: "rocksdb.block.cache.data.add" is number of data blocks read from filesystem. Since the benchmark is write-only, compaction is disabled, and flush doesn't read data blocks, any nonzero value means the user write issued the read. ``` $ for s in false true; do echo -n "strict_max_successive_merges=$s: " && ./db_bench -value_size=64 -write_buffer_size=131072 -writes=128 -num=1 -benchmarks=mergerandom,flush,mergerandom -merge_operator=stringappend -disable_auto_compactions=true -compression_type=none -strict_max_successive_merges=$s -max_successive_merges=100 -statistics=true |& grep 'block.cache.data.add COUNT' ; done strict_max_successive_merges=false: rocksdb.block.cache.data.add COUNT : 0 strict_max_successive_merges=true: rocksdb.block.cache.data.add COUNT : 1 ``` Reviewed By: hx235 Differential Revision: D53982520 Pulled By: ajkr fbshipit-source-id: e40f761a60bd601f232417ac0058e4a33ee9c0f4 |

RocksDB: A Persistent Key-Value Store for Flash and RAM Storage
RocksDB is developed and maintained by Facebook Database Engineering Team. It is built on earlier work on LevelDB by Sanjay Ghemawat (sanjay@google.com) and Jeff Dean (jeff@google.com)
This code is a library that forms the core building block for a fast key-value server, especially suited for storing data on flash drives. It has a Log-Structured-Merge-Database (LSM) design with flexible tradeoffs between Write-Amplification-Factor (WAF), Read-Amplification-Factor (RAF) and Space-Amplification-Factor (SAF). It has multi-threaded compactions, making it especially suitable for storing multiple terabytes of data in a single database.
Start with example usage here: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/tree/main/examples
See the github wiki for more explanation.
The public interface is in include/

internal APIs may be changed without warning.
