DRILL-5741: Automatically manage memory allocations during startup
Providing an environment variable - DRILLBIT_MAX_PROC_MEM to ensure that a
Drillbit's max memory parameters, cumulatively, don't exceed the value
specified.
The variable can be defined in KB, MB, or GB; similar in syntax to how the
JVM MaxHeap is specified. For e.g.
```
DRILLBIT_MAX_PROC_MEM=13G
DRILLBIT_MAX_PROC_MEM=8192m
DRILLBIT_MAX_PROC_MEM=4194304K
```
In addition, you can specify it as a percent of the total sytem memory
prior to the Drillbit starting up:
`DRILLBIT_MAX_PROC_MEM=40%`
For a system with with 48GB free memory, when set to (say) 25% (with
settings defined in drill-env.sh), and heap (8GB) and direct (10GB) are
defined; the Drillbit fails startup with the following message:
```
2018-01-03 14:27:57 [WARN] 25% of System Memory (47 GB) translates to 12 GB
2018-01-03 14:27:57 [ERROR] Unable to start Drillbit due to memory
constraint violations
Total Memory Requested : 19 GB
Check the following settings to possibly modify (or increase the Max
Memory Permitted):
DRILLBIT_MAX_PROC_MEM=25%
DRILL_HEAP=8G
DRILL_MAX_DIRECT_MEMORY=10G
DRILLBIT_CODE_CACHE_SIZE=1024m
*NOTE: It is recommended not to specify DRILLBIT_CODE_CACHE_SIZE as
this will be auto-computed based on the HeapSize and would not exceed 1GB
```
For all other combinations, the undefined parameters are adjusted to ensure
that the total memory allocated is within the value specified by
`DRILLBIT_MAX_PROC_MEM`,
For a system with with 48GB free memory, when set to (say) 50% (with
settings defined in drill-env.sh), and heap (8GB) and direct (10GB) are
defined; the Drillbit startup with the following warning:
```
2018-01-03 14:31:06 [WARN] 50% of System Memory (47 GB) translates to 24 GB
2018-01-03 14:31:06 [WARN] You have an allocation of 4 GB that is
currently unused from a total of 24 GB. You can increase your existing memory
configuration to use this extra memory
DRILLBIT_MAX_PROC_MEM=50%
DRILL_HEAP=8G
DRILL_MAX_DIRECT_MEMORY=10G
DRILLBIT_CODE_CACHE_SIZE=1024m
*NOTE: It is recommended not to specify DRILLBIT_CODE_CACHE_SIZE as
this will be auto-computed based on the HeapSize and would not exceed 1GB
```
In addition, if the available free memory is less than the allocation, an
additional warning is provided under the assumption that the OS will reclaim
more free memory when required:
```
2018-01-03 14:31:06 [WARN] Total Memory Allocation for Drillbit (19GB)
exceeds available free memory (11GB)
2018-01-03 14:31:06 [WARN] Drillbit will start up, but can potentially
crash due to oversubscribing of system memory.
```
