Summary of Changes

Hello @ti-chi-bot, I'm Gemini Code Assist1! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request updates the TiKV documentation to align with recent changes in its automatic compaction configuration. It clarifies the deprecation of previous compaction-related parameters and introduces a new set of parameters under gc.auto-compaction for more precise control over RocksDB compaction, ensuring the documentation accurately reflects the latest system behavior.

Highlights

  • Configuration Parameter Deprecation: Several older raftstore.region-compact-* configuration parameters have been deprecated in favor of new, more granular controls.
  • New Automatic Compaction Controls: New gc.auto-compaction.* parameters have been introduced to provide refined control over automatic RocksDB compaction behavior.
  • Documentation Updates: The documentation has been updated across multiple files to reflect these configuration changes, including guidance on usage and version applicability.

Code Review

This pull request updates the documentation for TiKV's auto compaction configuration. It correctly deprecates old raftstore.region-compact-* parameters and introduces new gc.auto-compaction.* parameters across several documentation files. The changes are generally well-written. I've provided a few minor suggestions to enhance clarity, consistency, and adherence to the documentation style guide.

> When using the Compaction Filter mechanism, GC progress might be delayed, which can affect TiKV scan performance. If your workload contains a large number of coprocessor requests and you observe in the [**TiKV-Details > Coprocessor Detail**](/grafana-tikv-dashboard.md#coprocessor-detail) panel that the `next()` or `prev()` call count in **Total Ops Details** significantly exceeds three times the `processed_keys` calls, you can take the following actions:
>
> - For TiDB versions before v7.1.3, it is recommended to disable Compaction Filter to speed up GC.
